To Earthland... and Beyond! [Job: Ace, Obel]

Job Info:

A huge line of bustling people gathered in the front of the Docks of Rose Garden families, children, old folks, everyone who was attempting to go on vacation was clamouring for a chance to get a passport because thanks Count Sparrow and the Magic Council Fiore's borders had been reopened to outsiders, and in turn, have opened the borders too Seven, Bosco, and Minstrel as a show of peace. Stella and Ace sat on a bench in front of an ice cream that was getting a huge business boost thanks to the huge line, Ace sighed as he opened his wallet and let the remainder of the money he had on him which were only a few coins and, piece of lint, a few coupons and stamp for the local ramen shop next to their house back in Mangolia Town. Ace glance at Stella who was making a cat face happily eating away at huge stack of enchanted ice cream drops that changed colours, flavours every few seconds and faintly glowed in an enchanted plastic cone that levitated an ice cream dot to who the user pointed at. "Stella was it really necessary for you to buy the largest size and the most expensive ice cream." he asked as he placed his wallet with the contents he took out back inside it back in his pocket "I mean I don't mind buying you ice cream when you have forgotten your wallet but did you really have to be so unreasonable with the prices?" After finishing chewing on an ice cream dot that had floated into her mouth, she pointed at him  with a serious look "You expect royalty such as me to settle for normal? Also this is punishment for on the train you simpleton." Ace ate a ice cream that had floated towards him after she had pointed at him "You're not the only member of royalty here sister. Also I don't get what I am punished for all I did on the train was talk to you and those two twin Elvin sisters from Seven."
"Simpleton....." Stella mumbled pouting with her cheeks puffed up before going back to eat here ice cream "So..." Ace sighed "How are we going to get these passports because I mean it seems like the only way to get to the top of that line is for use to cut it.

As the crowds continued to push the accidents got worse, large men knocked each other over and the women bickered with each other whilst their children cried. Obel, due to her small size, had been caught up in the rampage to get passports whilst trying to get her own. The people around her had no respect for personal space which angered the girl as she stood stubbornly on top of a womans bag so that she couldn't get it. This was Obels way of revenge, as the shouting woman had pushed the little girl so hard earlier that she had toppled into one of the plazas fountains. Obel stood silently as the woman tugged at the bag when suddenly the woman's husband lifted her up and pushed her away out of the crowd. Great, thought Obel, I've just lost my spot in the queue.

Ace sighed as he was going to continue his banter with Stella when he saw a man lift up a quite small and very slender girl who had perfectly straight white hair apart from the loose curls at the tips reaches her knees and a blunt full fringe that brushes the top of her big bright yellow eyes and pushed her away out of the crowd. Ace a little pissed off at the man's actions walked over with the right mid set to punch the guy in the face for doing something like that to a girl, but then decided to walk over to the girl instead who he now saw was wearing a black and white diamond checkered knee length dress that has white lace trimmings on its hem, sleeves that reached the bottom of her shoulders and the neckline along with a dress has a large ruby red ribbon across the waist of it which reached just above her knees, knee high lacy white socks and white lolita tea party shoes with bows on them. "Hey there are you okay?" he asked with a small but charming smile and casually as if he had met the girl before tonight.

Obel patted her dress down and steadied herself on her feet, "I am perfectly fine thankyou." She looked up at the person standing before her, she was smiling as if they had already met. That pissed her off slightly. She turned around and began to head back into the bustle of the crowd when suddenly and idea popped into her head. Obel half ran half walked back to the boy who had just come up to her, not willing to show her excitement, and pointed a stubborn finger at him "You're going to help me get a passport." Obel watched the boy as he took in her demand. Was he going to help or not?

Ace watched the pat her dress down and steadied herself on her feet, "I am perfectly fine thank you." she told him as she looked up at the him and seemed like she was slightly pissed off at him. He watched as she turned around and began to head back into the bustle of the crowd when half ran, half walked back to him and pointed a stubborn finger at him "You're going to help me get a passport." Ace stood there with a blank expression for a moment before bursting into laughter, once he calmed down he smiled "Yea sure whatever I don't mind, I was planning to pull something out of my sleeve." A few girls in the line saw Ace smiling and ended up blushing or fainting, which he seemed unaware of.

Obel stood waiting silently. The boy in front seemed to be trying to holding back his laughter which caused her to blush furiously as he wasnt taking her seriously. "Yea sure whatever I don't mind, I was planning to pull something out of my sleeve." he smiled and Obel noticed a bunch of girls in crowd around them either giggle of faint, how stupid. "Well what are we going to do then?" Obel glanced around the boys elbow (for this was where she came up to on him) and scanned the crowd behind searching for a gap to squeeze in, her cheeks still flaming with embarrassment and frustration.

"Well what are we going to do then?" The girl said as she glanced around his elbow which he also realised where she came up to on him height wise but he decided against saying anything about it as he didn't know if she was sensitive about it or not. "That's a plan for me to know and for you too find out in a few minutes." he winked and jested for the girl to follow him causing a few more girls who were in the line to faint "The name is Ace by the way. Ace Archard a mage of the Fairy Tail Guild." he then noticed that the girl's cheeks were flaming red, "Wow, are you okay? You look like you're sick," he then placed his hand on her fore head to check her temperature "Yea feel pretty hot also."

Obel followed the boy silently, not wanting to waste her breath arguing. She was sure she saw him wink at her before they began walking but decided not to mention it as she found it revolting. She also noticed the gaggle of girls that fainted along with the wink. "The name is Ace by the way. Ace Archard a mage of the Fairy Tail Guild." Obel found that the name Ace suited the boy before her but decided it was best not to say her thoughts out loud. Suddenly Aces hand was pressed against her forehead and he was asking her if she was feeling okay "You look like you're sick. You feel pretty hot also." Obel flinched away from his touch in embarrassment and swatted his hand away "I am feeling perfectly fine thank you!". She turned away from him and began walking in the direction they had previously been heading not sure if it was the right way or not. Obel tried very hard but she couldnt stop the small smile escaping, he was a strange person.

The girl flinched away from Ace's touch when he was feeling how hot her forehead, to the point where she swatted his hand away "I feeling perfectly fine thank you!". She turned away from him and began walking in the direction they had previously been heading not sure if it was the right way or not. Ace did a quick jog to catch up with the girl before walking along beside her "Okay that's good your not sick." he pulled the headphones on his ears down to be resting on his neck before he looked at the girl "So I told you my name, aren't you going to tell me yours?" Ace asked her giving her a small smile, before he heard someone call his name and when he turned tin the direction his name was coming from he saw Stella waving at him signalling him to come over.

"It is rude to listen to music when you are speaking to someone." Obel 'hmphed' and folded her arms before he asked her what her name was, "My name is Obel, not that it matters because we arent on friendly enough terms for you to use it." At that moment Obel noticed a fair headed girl waving Ace over. By the looks of it, Obel observed, she was another one of Aces worshippers and would surely faint as soon as Ace registered her presence. But Obel was wrong, as Ace turned and realised the blond girl was there he smiled at each other as though they had been friends since their childhood. Suddenly his direction changed and they were heading towards the girl."She better be able to help us with our job or I am leaving," then adding in a hushed mutter,"I bet you dont even have a plan anyway."

"It is rude to listen to music when you are speaking to someone." the girl told him as she 'hmphed' and folded her arms causing Ace to chuckle a little "Well that is why I took them off. Sorry I didn't take them off earlier...you know you are pretty cur when you're upset." he laughed jokingly when she then answered the question he had asked her earlier "My name is Obel, not that it matters because we aren't on friendly enough terms for you to use it."
"Awww come on Obel-chan, don't be so cold. I am going to help you get a passport after all! Ace replied smiling, when they changed directions Stella began walking towards the two of them. "She better be able to help us with our job or I am leaving," he heard Obel say "Well she is my partner so she is coming with us to get passports and she will be able to handle herself getting there, so don't worry." Ace responded and then adding in a hushed manor Obel muttered"I bet you don't even have a plan anyway." Ace was about to comment on what Obel just muttered when Stella reached up to them also hearing what Obel just said "Yep that sounds like Ace alright. Do first and think later."
"HUH? What's that suppose to mean Stella?"
"It means if you didn't have my perfect plans you would probably be dead, you simpleton."
(laughing) "Stella your plans are just as bad as mine."
"So you saying you have a plan?"
"Yep i got two in fact and if I can borrow your ears I can tell you guys the plan."

Obel made sure her hand stayed firmly by her side, being called 'Obel-chan' was certainly a new experience and one worthy of a slap to the face of the one who called her that. Obel watched as they neared the blond girl, not knowing what to say.
"Yep that sounds like Ace alright. Do first and think later" By the sounds of it blondie had heard her, well at least this new addition to their team agreed with Obel
"HUH? What's that suppose to mean Stella?" So her name was Stella, Obel thought, I think I will stick with calling her blondie.
"It means if you didn't have my perfect plans you would probably be dead, you simpleton" Obel smiled a little at this, blondie seemed to have a sense of humour at least and 'simpleton' was the perfect way to describe Ace.
"(laughing) "Stella your plans are just as bad as mine." Blondie said something in return about Ace not even having a plan.
"Yep i got two in fact and if I can borrow your ears I can tell you guys the plan" Obel looked at Ace expectingly she had yet to think of a plan herself yet so she was secretly happy to go along with anything -within reason- that he suggested but she would have to make it out to seem bad at first. Stella stood next to Ace facing Obel, she too was a lot taller than the little girl, Obel sulked internally "Hurry up and tell us your plan!"

"Hurry up and tell us your plan!" Obel said to Ace as Stella nodded in agreement, Ace laughed briefly before speaking finding Obel's sudden outburst rather funny along with the fact Stella was teaming up with her "Okay, okay, I will just both of you hold your horses. First off introductions Stella this is Obel and Obel this is Stella." Stella after hearing Obel's name smiled warmly at her "Nice to meet you Obel." Ace then clapped his hands together once they had finished saying hello to each other "Right the plans as I said earlier you guys have a choice of one of these two plans." Ace then held up one hand with one finger sticking out as if he was counting his fingers "Plan number one is that I use my magic to break the railing underneath those in line and we then run along the docks hand railings." he then held up his other hand that had two fingers sticking out in the same manor as he did with the first hand "Plan number two is that Stella you fly over and I get over by jumping from street light to street light but myself or Stella would need to carry Obel over. So what do you guys think?"

Obel listened to the plan intently not wanting to miss a word in case she messed up the plan later on. Ace explained that there were two plans, which Obel had to admit was well planned of Ace to think of a back up plan or another so that the team could decide whats best for them on the whole.
Hating the idea of being carried by blondie, not that she wasnt nice and all its just that it would be way too awkward for Obels liking. The first plan sounded much better and didnt involve being carried, "Lets do the first plan."

"Lets do the first plan." Ace heard Obel say before Stella could even speak her mind, Ace smirked, nodded as he walked over the edge of the bridge where the line was and lifted his knee as if he was about to kick someone. Stella seemed to become flustered as she knew what was happening next "Hey, Ace wait a second can't we figure out an alternative plan that doesn't involve one of us carrying Obel or one that doesn't involve us interfering with the people in the line." Just as Stella fished speaking Ace had dropped his leg, stomping it on the ground with his toes pointing towards the line that was going over the bridge where the passports were being given out on the over side. His stomp was placed where the path met the wood of the bridge, a second after the impact of his stomp half of a crater as where the other half of crater would be there was now wooden splinters and a crack in the bridge that spread along the middle causing the middle of the bridge to collapse slowly making the people in the line fall into the harbour water underneath unharmed or to run off the bridge towards where they were standing. "What people would you be talking about?" Ace said smirking mischievously before he leaped onto the hand railings of the bridge in a single bound and began to run across then "I would hurry up you two before people begin to copy us." A vein bugled on Stella's forehead clearly showing she was pissed "Ace you simpleton!" she ten sighed as she took a deep breath trying to calm her self before she got into a crouching position "Come on Obel we better catch up with him." Stella said just before she jumped into the air and a pair of wings that looked like they were made of light appeared on Stella's back allowing her to fly over the bridge to meet Ace on the other side arriving at the same time as him. Ace walked up to the person and got three from them, he then walked back to the group he pocketed one handed one to Stella and handed one to Obel "Well Obel it's been a blast, take care of your self." Ace said as he began to walk back towards the downtown part of Rose Garden but stopped and turned around looking back as he waited for Stella to catch up. The wings on Stella's back had seemed to have disappeared as she turned to "Hey if you are ever in Magnolia Town come see us, if you ask around the guild hall you will either find us there or be told we are." Upon saying those parting words Stella ran to catch up with Ace as they headed into the town from which they would find a ride back home.
