Chapter 9 Happy Birthday, Ikiru Ikaruga!

The rain had stopped and the sun was shining again. But the conversations still continued inside.

The girls were sat in their group and the boys sat in theirs.

"Hey guys", Miyuki whispered so that Ikiru didn't hear. "It's Ikiru's birthday tomorrow, but I don't know what to do for him. Shall I buy him a present?"

"Wait what?", Lucy whispered back. "The Master said his birthday was the 27th, does that mean it's the 26th already?"

"Yeah that's right but I don't know what to do for him?"

"I've got an idea", Erza put in. "Lucy would it be alright if we all went to your place tonight?"

"Sure", she nodded.

The day went on and it became dark.

"Hey Ikiru I'm going over to Lucy's tonight, is that alright?", Miyuki asked his permission.

"Huh, you don't have to ask me ya know. You're your own person, you don't need my permission. Go have some fun", Ikiru explained smiling.

"Uh, thanks", she hugged him.

"No problem, see ya later."

"See ya later", she called back as she waved and left with the girls.

Ikiru sighed deeply. "Now where am I meant to go?", he thought to himself.

"Hey Ikiru", Happy squeaked. "If you don't have anything to do, wanna come back to mine and Natsu's place? We haven't had someone in a while."

Ikiru grabbed Happy out of the air and hugged him tightly, "You're a life saver."

"Don't mention... it", Happy struggled braking free of Ikiru's grip.

"Well then let's go", Natsu spoke out as he strolled up behind them.

"Aye sir!"

The night went quickly and Ikiru slept deeply in Natsu's spare bed. Of course this was after he had stuffed himself with food.

*Yawn*

Ikiru and Natsu stretched their arms as they made their way towards the guild hall with happy in tow. They strolled in to the hall to hear party poppers and cheers.

They looked around and saw banners hung up that read 'Happy Birthday Ikiru!'

"Happy birthday!", Miyuki called as she dropped onto Ikiru and wrapped her arms around him. She pulled away from him.

"Uh, what is this?", Ikiru questioned.

"What does it look like dummy?", Miyuki said sarcastically poking Ikiru's forehead. "We're throwing a party for you."

"Uh", Ikiru looked around, he was surprised.

Miyuki wrapped her arms around him again but tighter this time, in a way that was more comforting. "Happy Birthday, Ikiru", she whispered into his ear.

"Thanks", Ikiru smiled softly, he was moved.

"Party!", Natsu yelled and with that the usual chaos began.

"We decided throw a party because we couldn't decide on a present for you", Erza explained.

"I already got two presents anyways", Ikiru explained.

"Huh", the girls questioned.

Before Ikiru could explain Elfman burst into the guild hall crying. "Guys you won't believe who it is. Mira I...", he cried tears of joy.

A small girl with white hair came around the corner and ran to Mira-Jane and hugged tightly.

The girl looked up with tears in her eyes, "I missed you, sister."

Almost everyone surrounded the girl and yelled, "Lisanna!"

Tears were shed and so were laughs as everyone greeted the presumed dead Lisanna Straus.

After a few hours of the welcome home/ birthday party Lisanna approached Ikiru and said, "So you did join the guild, just like I said, you fit in here."

Mira approached Ikiru and Lisanna who were with Miyuki.

"Yeah", Ikiru held out his hand and Lisanna shook. "Welcome back."

"Thanks", she replied. "Oh and this is your sister, I'm Lisanna Straus", she greeted putting out her hand.

"I'm Miyuki, Kurayami", Miyuki shook hands. "Hey, Ikiru. You know earlier you said you already had gotten two presents anyway, well what did you mean?"

"Well now, its three actually. The first is that I joined an awesome guild which is full of great people, the second and third are that my sister and someone elses sister who haven't been seen in years came back to us in the same week", Ikiru explained happily.

Everyone was listening in to this conversation and smiled and then Macao called out, "I think this calls for a toast!"

"I agree!", Makarov yelled, slightly drunk. "To Lisanna and Miyuki's homecoming and a Happy Birthday to Ikiru!"

Even more hours past, it was getting late once again.

Wendy noticed a look of sadness on Ikiru's face. "Hey what's wrong", she asked as she approached him. She sat next to him.

"Well I feel kinda bad that you guys who are Dragon Slayers have been partying for my Birthday. I mean you don't even know when your birthdays are", Ikiru explained.

"That's true but... don't be upset about it, it's ok."

"But..."

"It's ok", Wendy interrupted grasping onto Ikiru's arm.

"Uh, alright."

Wendy looked into Ikiru's eyes and smiled as she left him.

"Guess it's time to leave", Miyuki mentioned to Ikiru as she approached him.

"Yeah."

Everybody in the gang came out to leave at the same time and to see of Ikiru and Miyuki.

"We'd better get goin then, thanks a lot", Ikiru smiled.

"Don't mention it", Erza replied.

The small groups turned in their own directions and everyone called ,"Happy Birthday!"

Ikiru smiled.

*Splash*

*Drip*

*Drip*

Everybody turned at the sound of the strange noise.

Ikiru stood still put his hands on his stomach and then lifted his arms. His hands were warm and covered in a red liquid. Ikiru slowly lowered his head to see a sharp blade sticking through his stomach.

"What... the... fuck?", he managed to squeeze out of his lungs as his feet left the floor and his body planted into the ground.

Everyone turned in horror to hear Miyuki's scream, "Ikiru!"

Miyuki held Ikiru in her arms as he lay unconscious, bleeding to death. She began using healing magic immediately.

The gang surrounded him and looked around for a culprit of the stabbing. Scanning for any possible traces of an attacker.

Then in the corner of their eyes the gang caught a man stood in the darkness of a corner, wearing a hooded cloak and twirling blades on the tips of his fingers.

The man muttered quietly but just so everyone could hear, "Happy Birthday, Ikiru Ikaruga."
