"Hey, I didn't say-... nevermind, you're already gone." Shaking her head, the blind woman locked her apartment door and dropped her keys into her bag. Irene sometimes couldn't believe how energetic others could be, she did seem rather slow in comparison to someone like Natsu. She started moving when she couldn't sense the duo's presence anymore and walked with her cane in hand down the stairs, since the landlady refused to add a walking slope for the disabled.
Irene paid no mind to anyone she passed by on the way to the edge of town. Why should she? There's really no point unless they were an enemy or an ally, that's what she reasoned with anyways. It's what her mother taught her and she was always right. Maybe Irene should visit her and give something from the flower shop. Yeah that sounded-
Getting caught up in her jumbled thoughts, Irene smacked face first right into a wall. Cursing, she automatically reaches up to put a hand on her nose. Grumbling, the woman wondered how long it's been. Checking her watch, Irene raised an eyebrow. "It's been twenty minutes already? They're late." Completely ignoring the fact that she spaced out during that time, of course.

If he thought that she wouldn't find that bag behind a plant whenever she cleaned her house, he was sure to be wrong. After all, she had to clean her house whenever the whirlwind of destruction that was Natsu and his friend Happy showed up to trash her apartment. She's bound to find it sooner or later!
Not expecting to hear Natsu say that and follow her back to her own place after something he left at her house. " What do you mean you left something at my house?! Don't go leaving your stuff there! " She said with an annoyed huff. Her apartment was not for him to just drop his stuff off and leave it there!
The again, her apartment wasn't supposed to be broken into by their many friends of Fairy Tail. Yet, she'd already had a few break ins and the constant others from Natsu and Happy don't count. She'd lost track how many times she'd expected to come home and found them digging through her things, or using her house like a gym.
She'd just rush into her apartment once she made it in there to grab her things, clothes, coat and what not and get out. 20 minutes is not a long time to get stuff packed!

After he had turned back around to follow Lucy, and tripped doing so, Natsu started coming up with an idea to grab the bag in such a way that she wouldn't notice. However, it most likely wasn't going to happen that way, due to the fact he was usually caught with that kind of thing.
"Not my fault the place is easy to get in to!" He argued back at her, obviously not wanting to give away the fact it was even there in the first place, even though he meant well simply because it's important stuff that they would surely forget when rushed like what Irene was doing to them. After all, they probably needed the back-up necessities due to it. Luckily, he wasn't like a dog forgetting where it buried its bone!
...Most of the time.

Lucy made it to her apartment in a relatively short time, well, maybe it had taken longer due to wherever Irene had lived. Either way, she'd rush inside after unlocking the door to go and grab her bag. Throwing things into it, clothes, girl necessities, more clothes, warm clothes.
All the things that she might need for a long trip, especially if camping was involved. As for the bag that Natsu had been hiding, she had found it, and hadn't a clue who it belonged to. It just wasn't in its hiding spot anymore.
Huffing at him after grabbing her things. " Only for someone like you is a house easy to break into. " She said, totally annoyed. However, they had no time to just stand around and banter!

Natsu followed her inside and then snuck around to look behind all of the plants inside the apartment, only to come up empty handed. "Uh, Luce...?" He questioned, not wanting to give away the fact that it was his.
"...Where's the bag that was behind one of these?" He asked her after pausing for a moment, and pointed to one of the plants, a nervous grin appeared on his face and he moved his hand to scratch the back of his head. He hoped she still had it lying around somewhere so they wouldn't have to search for it, and that she wouldn't hit him for hiding the thing instead of just telling her what it was for. That, he kind of regretted.

Lucy wasn't really paying any attention to Natsu while she was in such a rush to pack her bag. At least until her rush was over and she was already packed did Natsu's voice totally startle her. She'd forgotten he was there! Jumping and whirling around with a startled eep!
She was about to scold him for scaring the hells out of her when he spoke up. Realizing what he said, the blonde frowned. Putting her hands on her hips. " I found a bag back there, and didn't know who it belonged to. It's behind the bookshelf. " She said with a frown.
" Want to tell me why you're hiding bags in my house? " It was just all kinds of suspicious!

Now that he thought about it, he could've just had Mira hold onto it for him instead of hiding it. 'Of course I'd think of that now...' Unfortunately, this wasn't like a fight, in which case his thoughts would be clear and allow him to make quick decisions, no. This was a regular day, in which he had made the stupid choice to try and sneak the bag out, only to have it explode in his face and accidentally give the hiding spot of the bag away to the one person he didn't want knowing about it.
"Er..." He paused to think of what he was going to say next, being very careful for once. "It's just a bunch of important stuff incase we're rushed!" He explained. Maybe this would get him out of suspicion? He hoped so anyway, after all, with the majority of the guild members, first aid was a must. Even camping items, such as blankets and various other objects. No one in the guild ever knew exactly how long they'd be gone, they could find something on the way to the client, on the way back, get lost, anything could happen that would need this stuff!
"I put it there a while back, didn't think you'd actually find it.." Natsu gave off a nervous laugh as he moved to the bookshelf and found the very center of the current subject. Grabbing the bag from its new hiding spot, he turned around and walked to the door, stopping to wait for her, "Luce, we should probably go before Irene decides to find her way here and kill us both for being late."

"..." It's been twenty five minutes of waiting, so their time was up she reasoned. Irene was about to get up when she paused. She shook her head, thinking she caught the scent of someone long gone. Resuming in standing up, Irene withdrew her cane and walked back into the town. "How annoying, those two are way past schedule. Really, how long does it take to pack a simple bag?"
Irene, of course, not knowing that some people aren't as time conscious as she is, sighed in irritation. Being rather self-reliant on herself due to being coddled as a child, she thought of herself more than others. When it came down to life and death, she'd rather save herself than someone else. Irene did have some positive qualities, such as having a decent sense of humor and the occasional kindness, like teaching Natsu how to read Braille. It was more of a few minutes of entertainment, but she truly meant to teach him. Well, in her own special, gruff way.
'Glancing' around her, Irene took in the different smells and sounds. "Damn it, not a- Wait, I think that's Natsu's scent... I can recognize that burnt smell anywhere..." Even if it was faint, she could still follow it to the source. Another perk to having a great sense of smell. Pleasantly surprised she wasn't getting herself lost when the scent only got stronger, Irene started moving faster. Even more so, when she recognized Lucy's sweet scent mixed with his. "He's unfortunate to have an easily memorable type of smell, burnt firewood is more or less hard to forget..."

Lucy was standing there, watching him, and waiting for his answer, but she was also ready to go by now. Having already packed up before addressing him. Giving him a suspicious look, but it grew even more suspicious when he said that. Really why would an emergency bag need to be kept a secret?
She wouldn't have cared and would have take nit with her in fact. " If you say so Natsu. " She said and frowned a bit, She would trust him. Moving to walk past him to the door and open it. They needed to get going, her bag rolling alongside her as usual.
" Of course I'd find it. I DO clean my house ya' know. " She said back with a smirk. She had to keep her house looking tidy after all!
" I'm already ready, and I doubt she will, she isn't Erza. " Thank the celestial gods for that one. They could only handle one Erza in Magolia. No scratch that, the world, the universe.

Natsu knew he probably sounded like an idiot for hiding it like he did, but really, when did he ever think smart outside of fighting? Well, serious fights at least. After not being able to find words to say, he decided to drop the subject of the bag and focus more on actually leaving, and followed her out the door.
Once outside, he closed the door behind him and walked to the main pathway to wait for Lucy to lock it. "You... make a good point." Even if he wasn't looking at his teammate, he could still hear the smirk in her voice. '..She got me.'
"She might not be Erza, but she can still be scary! But, it's not like it's all the time." Leaving it at that, he slipped the bag straps onto his shoulders and moved his hands to connect behind his head as he waited.

Whistling a nameless tune, Irene started taking her time in following Natsu's scent. She'd run into them eventually after all, and besides she was pretty close to them. Speaking of which, there's Natsu and Lucy! Keeping herself quiet and tapping her foot on the ground impatiently, Irene waited for them to notice her.
She could be a human bloodhound if she was required to be. It's the reason she often took on tracking missions. Irene crossed her arms and imitated a cough, "If you two are done being off schedule, shall we get going now?" Stressing the last word, she swung her cane towards Natsu and then poked Lucy with it.
"That's for being late, now hurry up so we can leave already."

Natsu really was quite silly for hiding it, it was an emergency bag, not his deepest darkest secret! Silly guy. Still, Lucy locked her door and turned around to face him, walking after him. Dragging her bag. " I don't think the world can handle another Erza. "
True! and if the guild had two Erza's they'd all be done for! Moving to walk past him so they could get on the road, it wasn't until she walked by Irene that she finally noticed the girl there! Whoops.
Jumping back to stare at Irene in shock. " I was on schedule! 20mintues isn't a long time to pack. " She complained and sighed. Especially when she had to run across town to get to her own apartment! Eeping when she was poked with the cane.
" We're already ready. Let's go. "

Nodding in agreement, he let his hands fall to his sides, "Yeah. We'd all be toast." He continued to walk, only to run directly into Irene who was completely unnoticed up to that point. "Wha-" He stepped back, not even seeing the cane flying towards his head until it was too late. "Ow!"
After stepping back a little more, making sure he was out of the girls' range, he rubbed the bump that formed on his head. "Hey! Why does she get poked but I get hit?!" Natsu pouted. It wasn't fair! He was always getting hit, and hard too, it'd be nice to have a change for once.

Irene just nods and ignores Natsu's complaint, "Good, I wasn't going to wait any longer." She turns back around and, without waiting for an answer, starts to walk with the help of her cane. Tucking back hair that was threatening to fall onto her face, Irene quickened her speed. "We have to make up for lost time, obviously, and I will blame it on Natsu for now. Lucy, you aren't forgiven for wasting time. Anywho, I'm pretty sure I sound bossy for saying this, try to hurry up if there is a next time we do a mission together."
Not realizing she sounded bossy the whole time, Irene remained ignorant to that fact and checked her watch for the time. "Ugh, the timing so far is okay. If we can hurry, those pesky creatures won't be blocking our way there. It is extremely annoying to bargain with them, won't shut up the whole time. Kind of like Natsu." Not meaning to say the last sentence aloud, Irene 'glanced' at him.
"No offense, of course. I don't know what they're called, but they'll block the path for about a few days before going off to block another unfortunate soul's pathway. I would know considering I've met quite a few- Oh, we're already at the edge of town." Losing track of what she was saying, she once more checked her watch. "If those things are already there, you can take care of them if you want to. Such annoying pests they are..."

Except well Natsu, he couldn't be toast, nobody could toast the guy. Watching while Natsu was clobbered on the head by an irritated Irene, she sweatdropped. Did the woman really expect them to be so quick when it came to packing bags?
She was a woman too after all! Girls need things!
" What's wrong Natsu, I thought you where the tough guy? " She teased with a smirk, he was always egging others on for a fight, especially the strongest ones, like Erza, Laxus and many others. Especially Gildarts.
Turning to follow after Irene, while they walked. " I wasn't wasting time. " She huffed and puffed out her cheeks in annoyance, she had 20 minutes to get home and pack a bag! Not enough time! Irene was being a little unreasonable, and impatient! Mostly impatient and yes, very bossy.
" What kind of creatures are we talking about? " Block a path for days? Couldn't they just go around? Lucy was getting confused.
