Cobra got to the front of the guild, hood up, scanning the area for any signs of life. He soon spotted Lucy also standing at the front, a hat over her head and a bag over her shoulders. She yawned, her eyes still a bit glazed over with sleep, and for a moment he wasn't sure if he should call her over or even announce his presence at all.
Before he could decide, she tiredly glanced in his direction and her eyes snapped open in surprise. Cobra? She mouthed, as her thoughts burst like fireworks at his unexpected presence.
Great, he thought, but moved closer to her so she could see his face. Her smile is equal parts happy surprise and smugness. He almost puts a hand up to pinch her cheeks but stops himself from probably getting slapped. No turning back now…
"No turning back now you two!" A cheerful voice (way too cheerful for early morning) emerged as if from the guild itself as Mirajane stepped into view. His fate sealed, Cobra did nothing but grunt as the demon made her way over to the two of them.
