-Erin-
After Liz left the entire guild was looking at me.
'Great, here we go.'
Natsu and Gajeel were the closest to me and they both had looks on their faces that were confused yet joyful in a way.
'That makes four in the guild.'
"Erin, is Liz really a Dragon Slayer?"
Wendy asked, she looked so inoccent.
"Yes, she's a Water Dragon Slayer."
I said before turning to Gray, who had a look of shock on his face.
"You left something out of your story Erin."
Gray said and I scratched the back of my head awkwardly. Juvia had gotten up and went to the bar near Gray, but he wasn't done with me. I knew he was right, but Liz wanted to keep that part of her a secret, I never really knew why.
"She didn't want anyone to know. When I told you she was raised by a drunk man and his family..."
I kinda wanted to laugh at the fact Liz didn't know I'd told him that.
"She was really raised by Hydrynia. Hydrynia taught her how to use slayer magic and one day just disappeared."
I said and heard Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy gasp so i turned.
'The same thing happened to them. Igneel, Metalicana, and Grandeeney all disappeared one day too. On the same day.'
"I'm sorry we didn't tell you."
I said.
"You mean Liz's dragon just vanished?"
Natsu asked and I nodded.
"The same day all the others did."
I told them. levy put her hand on Gajeel's shoulder and Mirajane took Wendy's hand. Natsu stood there and just stared at me.
"When Liz was ready, she would have told us. Members of guilds put ultimate trust in other members, remember that."
Makarov's voice came from the second floor and broke through the silence that had fallen around the guild.
-Liz-
'Well I guess now the secret's out.'
I had woken up a few moments ago and had taken a hot bath. I perched myself on the windowsill and was looking at the window when a loud knock made me jump.
'There's Erin.'
I thought.
'I just left the guild and left her there to explain everything. She's going to be pissed at me.'
"Coming!"
I yelled.
When i opened the door, I expected to see a very pissed Celestial mage, but in her place stood a very sexy ice mage.
"Hello Liz."
Gray said. I was in shock, but happy.
"H...Hi Gray."
I stumbled over those two simple words.
"Erin told us about Hydynia. Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy weren't as shocked as we would have thought.
'I figured that.'
"What are you doing here?"
I asked and he looked at me before giving me a classic Gray smile.
"While Erin was explaining, Gramps walked in and told us youwould have eventually said something, so I came here to tell you no one is mad. When you blocked Juvia's attack, I thought you were an Ice mage like me, but then you started doing magic that only a slayer can do."
'He must be talking about my dragon's roar, or my other water moves.'
"It seemed to me like you were scared for Juvia or something."
I said looking at the ground and he luaghed.
"Juvia can take care of herself, it just happened so fast. No that you said that, I can do what I wanted to do earlier."
He said and I looked at him in confusion.
"Liz, will you go out with me tonight?"
He asked and his eyes seemed to sparkle.
"Yes."
I said and his smile grew and I almost didn't hear the 'yes' come from the bush across the street.
'No way.'
"Erin, is that you?"
I asked and a smiling Erin came out from the bush and bowed.
"The one and only."
She came over and Gray put his arms around my shoulders.
"She said yes, but from your expression I'm sure you heard."
Gray said and he and Erin both smiled.
"Erin, what are you doing here?"
I asked
-Erin-
Liz was so shocked that I showed up.
"After the Master showed up I saw Gray leave, naturally I followed. I caught up to him and he said he wanted to find you."
I said and saw she wasn't really paying me any attention.
'It's like she doesn't even care. I know they like eachother and now they're together.'
I thought to myself with a smile.
"So where do you want to go?"
Gray asked Liz.
"Wherever you want."
Liz said happily.
"You guys have fun, I'm goin' back. Levy wanted to know if I could 'talk' some sense into Gajeel about something."
I turned to leave and already I could hear them laughing. It made me smile to know she was happy.
