Natsu smirked as he picked up his bucket, impressed with the catch all three made and the fact Draco spent time with him doing one of his favorite things. "Well that's what happens when you have fun. Time flies Draco." He said with a smile. "Let's start heading back and showing your mother the grub!"<br/><br/>"Aye!" Happy shouted as the exceed lead the way back home bucket in hand. "Hey Natsu, how old are you gonna be tomorrow?"<br/><br/>"Huh, that's a very interesting question, but why ask?" Natsu asked.<br/><br/>"Oh nothing, just wondered if you'll be as old as dirt." Happy said starting to giggle.<br/><br/>"I'm not like Gramps Yet!" Natsu shouted as he opened the door to his house. "Lucy, we're home!" he walked to the kitchen and set his bucket on the counter whilst Happy did the same.<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Fenrir headed back home, silently pondering how was he going to find a good profitable house when he saw Gajeel doing some framework for a new building  using his Iron Dragon magic, next to the Fullbuster residence.<br/><br/>"Uncle Gajeel?" He asked. "What are you doing?"<br/><br/>"Killing two birds in one stone. Making sure Juvia and Gray are happy and that you have your freedom in your own little den." Stated the aging Slayer. "One condition. By the time you move in here, you're paying me rent for a few years. This was some of my food supply."<br/><br/>Fenrir chuckled at the joke. "It's a deal you son of a-"<br/><br/>"Say something along the lines of Broodmother or the other "b" word, I'll pop your lights out." Gajeel interrupted.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Erza was watching most of the members leave either on jobs or heading home, silently wishing them all a safe journey. As she did this she wondered how many times she did this already, and how many times Makarov had done this in his tenure as master. How he viewed them all as his children, and wondered if she was old as he, despite having children of their own, would she do the same?<br/><br/>As she prepared to retire for the night her communication Lacrima blinked. Wondering who had the gall to call her at night she answered it only to see a young man with short red hair around Fenrir's age panting and looking very battered.<br/><br/>"Will? What's going on why are you-?"<br/><br/>"Mom I don't have time for a lecture, I need you to send backup, anybody! Glynda and I were ambushed by a dark guild on our way to the Akane station!" Cracked the voice on the other end. "They hurt Glynda real bad! We're at a hospital now but please don't make a big deal of-"<br/><br/>"Stay there. I will get someone on it tomorrow. Guard your sister with your life!" Erza shouted as she rubbed her temples as she ended the call. Trouble, and right before and possibly Natsu's birthday too! What will the world think of next? Fenrir going to help him. Erza's train of thought stopped there.<br/><br/>"Hmm, he could..." She pondered. She'd have to pull him aside during the celebration tomorrow.
