He sounded like he had a very interesting life. More so than others; but that probably comes with being raised by a dragon. This, this was a concept Taunie could never really understand. Much like the wanderers of Fairy Tail, her story was a bit different and didn’t involve much family.

When he asked about her story, how her life had been and what an everyday life in the guild was life. Her head jerked back in surprise and she pulled herself from the window to sit up straight. “Oh…” She began, her voice sounding a bit sad as she turned her gaze to the window. “Not many of us in Fairy Tail have happy background stories. Most of us made a good life and a good future for ourselves but our pasts aren’t so good. And I’m no different from that.” Her small shoulders rose and fell with a shrug as she turned her blue gaze back to him. “My only sibling died because we were playing with our magic. He was a wood-make wizard and he had created a bridge to get us across his cannon on one of our adventures out in the wilderness. As we were crossing there was a massive earthquake and the bridge gave way. My brother being a lot older than me grabbed me and threw me across the cannon to the other side and I watched him fall to his death.” A shaky sigh left her. “The town’s police were able to recover his body and my parents blamed me for his death and kicked me out. This happened when I was 13 and it wasn’t long before I wondered into Mongolia and found Fairy Tail. I worked in the kitchen for a while before I was able to start taking jobs.”

A shrug rose and fell her shoulders as her mood seemed to change and she began to talk about the guild. “Growing up in the guild was fun though. It was like having a massive and rather obnoxious family. Every day someone had a new story to share, every day someone accomplished something and would share it with the guild. It was always a party or laughter along with a chance to learn things. Every day I’d walk down the road towards the guild hall and wonder ‘what kind of stories await me today’, and ‘what adventures will I get to hear’. The best thing about a guild is that no one ever falls because someone is always there, someone always wants to help and everyone wants everyone else to succeed. We do fight, we do bark and bite at each other but we’re one big annoying family.” A small laugh left her; obviously talking about the guild over her own past was something more enjoyable.

The train pulled to a stop and she rose from her seat, work mode taking over as she pulled out the paper in her pocket. “We can talk more on our way back. For now we’ve got something we need to retrieve. Let’s go.”

After about two hours of walking almost aimlessly through the woods, they came upon a campsite and a wooden building. The whole walk Taunie remained almost silent, an odd trait for her. Her body tensed and her hands were almost shaking. Boy this… this wasn’t going to be good if they were caught. Hopefully this will all work out okay.

They hid inside some bushes near the campsite; some people were coming in and out of the cabin and to the tables marking things on rolled up pieces of paper. “Okay.” She whispered. “We have to make this quick and fast. Here’s the plan. She turned her blue gaze to Valier, “I need you to fly over there as soon as you see an opening and grab as many rolled up pieces you can than come straight back. If you stumble, fall or lose your flight abilities I’ll catch you and pull you to us.” She then turned her gaze to Ansel, “As soon as Valier gets back I need you to incase the site and the cabin in earth than we run back to the train and get on. Everyone ready?”
