[b]I[/b]sshum pursed his lips to the side, his arms were folded behind his head as he did, his face scrunched up at Vi’s insult about his laziness. [color=#B80000][b] “W[/b]ho’s the real slacker here, Vi? A shower? I say we head straight to the Guild after claiming our reward. Ain’t nobody got time for that.”[/color] 

[b]H[/b]e shot Bel a contagious grin as he passed by, walked forwards with long strides before quickening his step and taking lead of the group. [color=#B80000][b] “L[/b]et’s not forget who plans on taking the title of hero from Natsu Dragneel,”[/color] he said, bounding on his heels before turning forwards and smiling into the green woods. [color=#B80000][b] “I[/b] don’t gots the time to be a slacker. In fact, I plan on speeding all the way home! Follow along or get left behind!”[/color] he yelled, sprinting towards the village they made the contract with. 

[b]A[/b]fter collecting their reward, the three mages made their way back to Magnolia; it took three-fourths of a day for them to reach its forest, the sun was still low on the horizon. All Isshum could think about was Taka’s living flames’. His stomach churned with delight at the thought. Waddling with wide steps, his hands stuffed in his pockets, he craned his neck back towards Bel. [color=#B80000][b] “T[/b]hink you can whip me up something to eat? I’m starving ova here,”[/color] he groaned, looking for the familiar multi-colored flames that Bel could produce. As long as it wasn’t a foul tasting one, any would do.
