Crystal Shadows (A Fairy Tail Fanfic, Rogue Cheney Love Story)

Chapter 26

Above is the English voice actress I'd picked out for Kumiko. Her Japanese voice actress is Keiko Kitagawa, the same as Sailor Mars—->

Kumiko's P. O. V:

Morning sunlight pours in through my bedroom window, as I sit up and stretch my arms above my head.

I get out of bed and head into my ensuite, turning on the shower before stripping and getting in. After a couple of minutes, I turn off the water and step out.

After drying my body, I blink down at the scar on my left hip, feeling it throb slightly, is received it during one of my battles when I was travelling Fiore before I'd joined Fairy Tail; the scar travels up my hip.

I requip into my usual work attire. I finish my usual routine before leaving the bathroom. I find Luna just waking up.

"Good morning, Luna-chan!" I greet brightly.

"Morning, Kumi-chan," She replies, rubbing the sleep from her eyes.

"I'll head down and get breakfast started. I'm thinking of taking a job today," I tell Luna.

"Okay. I'll be down in a few seconds," Says Luna. I make my way down the stairs to the kitchen and start breakfast.

                             ~~~

When we'd washed up after breakfast, Luna and I head to the guild hall. When we arrive at the guild hall, I push open the doors to find only a handful of members chatting, laughing, eating and drinking.

"I'm going to check on the Second Floor for job requests," I tell Luna who nods in agreement before she goes to wait for me at the bar. I jog lightly up the stairs and look over the job requests on the board. One caught my eye and I peel it off the request board.

I head back down stairs and head over to Mira and Master, the white haired beauty is cleaning a glass behind the counter, while Kinana is serving food.

"Good morning, Kumi-chan!" Mira greets.

"Morning! This place is basically empty. Where is everyone?" I reply, glancing around.

"Oh, ever since the Grand Magic Games, we've been getting so many job requests, so everyone else is off on their own job."

"Oh," I mutter in response.

"What about you and Luna? Going on a job?" Mira asks.

I nod as I hold up the job request and reply, "Yup! Luna and I are going on this one!"

Mira takes the job request and reads over it. "Capture the assassin, Kira..." She looks up and gives me a smile as she says, "Okay, Kumi-chan! Good luck!"

"Thanks, Mira-chan! We'll be back in a week or two," I reply.

"Hold on, Kumi-chan," Master says, causing me to pause and turn to him. "I'd like you to take someone else with you. And I know just who to ask."

"Eh...?" I utter, blinking my sapphire eyes as I tilt my head slightly.

Twenty minutes later, I step off the train at the train station, holding my stomach as I groan in pain.

"You doing okay, Kumi-chan?" Luna asks me.

"Yeah. I'll be fine. Just give me a sec," I reply. Once my stomach has settled, I gaze around for my teammates. "Sting and Rogue-kun should be waiting for us here..."

"I wonder where they are...?" Luna muses, gazing around.

"Kumi-chan!" I look down to see a green and pink shape standing by my leg.
