Irene was on her way home after shopping. Natsu's 11th birthday was coming up and she and Erza were planning to cook a feast! That's when Irene noticed three men following her.
Irene smirked and turned left into an alleyway, jumping right into the air to wait for the men to enter the alley.
"What the?! Where did she go?"
Irene floated to the ground silently dropping behind them. With a single kick, she sent the shortest man flying into the dumpster, knocking him unconscious
"No! Wait-" screamed the muscular man before Irene summoned her staff and knocked him to the ground, stomping his crotch.
She turned to the final man whose knees were bucking in fear. He looked like he was going to mess his pants at any moment.
Irene slowly stepped towards him, the sound of her shoes echoing in the dark alleyway.
"No, ma'am please!" he cried, shielding his face with right arm, extending his left hand out.
Irene's eyes widened in confusion realizing he was holding her Jewel purse.
"Y-you dropped it and we wanted to return it to you," he whimpered.
"Why, thank you! How kind of you!" smiled Irene, taking her Jewel purse and pocketing it.
Irene let out a giggle,"You're lucky you caught me in a good mood! Or else I would have killed all three of you!"
The man upon hearing these words fainted making Irene chuckle as she left the alley and the three men behind.
She whistled a happy tune, excited for her son's birthday party.
