"Eh?! Luce!" Before he could even think, he had already crossed his arms and looked away, pouting. It wasn't his fault Irene was a step ahead of him, but it was for getting hit. After all, he really should've been paying more attention to their surroundings.
"You didn't really wait anyway.. You came to find us instead of leavin' on your own. And why are we even in a rush, anyway...?" He questioned the other before picking up his own pace in order to keep up with her. Natsu realized he probably wasn't going to get an answer right away as Irene was rambling on, which just barely let him get his own sentences in.
"..Hey!" He butted in as he was a little ticked off at the insult, which would surprise most that he even caught it that quickly in the first place. Even though he was letting it slide this time, he wasn't gonna forget it. He'd get payback later. For now, though, Natsu decided it would be best to just focus on the task at hand, being just as, if not more, confused than Lucy was at the moment.

"...What was a saying, again? Never mind, I don't think it was important." Her rambling coming to an end, Irene was completely unaware she had confused them with her nonsensical explanation. "They're like a wall, I guess? I can't see after all. But, yeah, they can stretch themselves to barricade travelers from going past them. As far as I know, they can stretch with no limits."
Shrugging, Irene made her cane longer so she could feel ahead of her. Ears catching the sounds of animals, she knew that they were on the path now. Glad that they were on track finally, Irene pushes back stray hair and sighs lightly. "Like I said before, it's about a days' journey through here. After that we can rest up at my parent's place, I'm sure my dad wouldn't mind." She continued moving when she caught the scent of what she was talking about. "Heads up, the creatures are ahead of us, three miles exactly."
Just up ahead, innocent-looking creatures with wide, thick bodies sensed the group of three.

The blonde laughed at Natsu's response, and his pout was totally funny! She was tempted to tease him more just for that expression on his face. However, she decided to leave him be, since her mind was now too busy with what Irene was talking about.
She wasn't sure if she should be relieved or even more confused than before. It didn't help that Irene was still rambling to herself and confusing the celestial mage. When would anyone in Fairy Tail ever make sense?
" That sounds nice. " She'd say, but in reality she wasn't sure what else to say about that. Dragging her bag along behind her on its wheels, as per usual. Then when their blind comrade gave a warning she frowned.
" This should be interesting.. " she spoke up idly.

Natsu blinked, confusion clearly showing on his face at this point. "Uh..." He trailed off, unable to fully understand what was going on. "I don't get a thing you're sayin'." After explaining this, he scratched his head in confusion. "But, whatever they are, I'll beat the crap out of 'em!" He grinned.
Nothing was gonna stop him from getting to where they needed to go for their main mission. "It's gotta be way easier than try'na take down Assnologia, right?" He knew he didn't say the real name of the particular dragon, and he would readily admit it too. After all, he was holding a huge grudge against Acnologia for everything he's done, besides, the new name fit.
He cracked his knuckles, "I'm all fired up!" He was ready for anything this mission or the walk there would throw at them now.

Irene merely grunted in reply to both of them. Her throat felt dry from talking so much and opted to keep quiet unless necessary. She cracked her knuckles as well and vaguely felt her magic rings as she did so, the scent of the creatures coming closer. Rolling her eyes at Natsu's 'all fired up' comment, Irene swung the walking cane onto her shoulder and stopped walking once they were in front of the barricading creatures.
"Well," She coughed, motioning vaguely towards the creatures. "I wasn't lying, try and go past them." Irene baited them, knowing whats going to happen. Of course she knew, Irene had met them a handful of times. She may be blind but it was challenging to get past them even with sight.
The three creatures, known as Swaerls, watched the trio cautiously with big eyes and the leader, the largest one, came forward acting cute and cuddly. This was their plan, after all, act cute and when travelers tried to move past, expand in size to block them off. It works because even if they look a bit fragile, Swaerls have tough, expandable exteriors.

Lucy had been just as confused as Natsu had been when it came to Irene and her antics. She didn't understand what the girl was muttering about. Deciding to just let it go, and focus on the task at hand.
Of course as soon as they arrived to the creatures that they had to fight. Though the creatures blocking the path looked totally adorable! What was so scary about them?
" Well... this can't be so bad. " she said with a frown. This looked rather easy actually. Though knowing Natsu; he would probably attack first. The celestial mage might wait first for Natsu to attack before trying anything.
Who knows? Maybe the fire dragon slayer could open up the path quicker than the rest of them.

"...." Natsu stared at the Swaerls for a minute before he walked over to the big one, leaned over, and (surprisingly) carefully picked it up. "Ooh~" These things, whatever they were, were too adorable to hit. "They're actually really soft!"
Natsu turned around to take it back over to the group, but of course the one he had a hold of decided to expand right then and there and effectively trapped him behind after Natsu dropped it. "Uh... guys?" He called out, unfortunately it also expanded upwards, and it was well beyond the height he could jump, even with fire propelling him upwards. "..They're not so cute now!"
Just behind him, the other two followed their leader shortly after he was separated from Lucy and Irene, and managed to fully trap Natsu between two of the little monsters. "But they're still really soft!" Leave it up to him to end up petting the wall that was a Swaerl.

As expected, the creatures trapped Natsu between them and Irene spoke up with a smug voice, "I warned you. But anyways, I wouldn't recommend attacking them. Not that they're soft and cute, but they tend to kill their victims by suffocation if you try to hurt them. For example-"
None too gently swatting at the leader of the Swaerls after moving forwards, Irene took a step back out of harms way. The Swaerl growled and filled in the space that Natsu was trapped in, glaring at Irene. The other two mimicked the leader's movement within a few moments.
"-that happens. Natsu, use your brain for once and think of something useful. It'll help if you can think of something too, Lucy." She shrugged, having said what need to be said. Irene honestly didn't know herself how to escape, seeing as when she got caught she waited until the Swaerls left her alone. Not that she got caught frequently, of course.
The female 'glanced' upwards, frowning this time. "You better think fast, we don't have time to waste here."

" Natsu! Don't just--" Lucy started to say just as Natsu not only picked up the Swaerl, but attempted to take it over to them. Only to find himself trapped. " Nevermind... " she said with a sweatdrop and a sigh, watching the scene unfold. Well this was totally unexpected...
Sure the little things where cute, but cute didn't mean innocent.Lucy Heartfilia stared as the creatures grew and grew. Sweatdropping when Natsu still petted the giant wall of Swaerls! What a goof!
Turning her attention to Irene, as the girl explained things. Frowning she sighed. They might just have to pass through another way, it would be better than trying to pick a fight with these creatures. Natsu might complain, but he might be able to get them out of this.
" Alright. We might have to cheat our way out of this. " She said, while reaching for her keys.

"But it's cute, Luce!" He said just before the Swaerls surrounded him and expanded, effectively blocking everything in that space. Natsu attempted to climb his way to the surface after being practically squashed between two of them, which made it hard to breathe, like Irene had said they'd do.
He gave up after so long, growing rather irritated, but still forced himself to not burn down the whole forest purposely on accident. Instead, he petted one of them some more, unexpecting it to shrink a little bit. "What the heck? What's it-" It had grabbed him at this point, but instead of doing some horrible thing, it decided to cling, cuddle, and rub him on its very soft and fuzzy cheek.
"Guys, help me!"

Shaking her head, Irene balanced her cane on her shoulders as she started thinking. Perking when Lucy spoke up, she frowned, "I don't know..." She was more of someone who plays by the rules rather than cheat, but precious time is being wasted. "Fine, go ahead, Lucy. We need to get moving quickly."
"Natsu, don't just play the damsel in distress, think of something helpful," Irene snarked, grinning before frowning once more. "Time is of the essence, someone once said... I think."
Meanwhile, the Swaerl that held Natsu was making sure he didn't escape. It rubbed him on it's cheek in an attempt to suffocate him slowly. Swaerls aren't very strong hitters, but great at defense and blocking. They rely mostly on their strong bodies and smothering fur.

Quite frankly Lucy was surprised that Natsu hadn't decided to punch one of these things in the face. Cute or not, he could still fight! He was unbelievably strong, moving these guys shouldn't be too hard! " I thought you where strong! " She yelled at him.
Sure make him mad! that always works in a bad situation. Especially one that the blonde was sure she couldn't rescue him from. He might have to rescue himself.
" Alright, but we're gonna have to do some digging..." She said, and grabbed for Virgo's Key. It was their only way out, and the only plan that she could really come up with.
I hope this works... She thought.

His eye twitched at Irene's comment, but then he snapped with Lucy's remark. "I am strong, Luce!" he yelled back shortly before inaudibly muttering to himself and bursting into flames, which then caused the Swaerl that was being a little too cuddly to back off and drop him.
Natsu just barely managed to land on his feet after being dropped from that height. He then pointed up to the very adorable and fuzzy face to scold the creature (which he was glad the others couldn't see him). "You're gonna let us through whether you like it or not! Got it?" Normally, he would hit anything that crossed their path and blocked them from the main mission, but this time the things were just too damn cute to actually harm. Maybe scolding them would make 'em back down?

"I doubt that, flamebrain!" Irene taunted, laughing mockingly. She shook her head, balancing the walking cane on her shoulders once more. It was a habit of hers after all.
Pausing in her thoughts to hear Lucy, Irene turned to face her. "I'm guessing this is the only thing you can think of that won't end up horrifically, right? Well, whatever, it doesn't matter anyways." Deciding to not bother with the details of what Lucy was thinking, she just shrugged to herself and eyed the Swaerls trapping Natsu.
Not taking too kindly to being hurt, the Swaerl growled at his demand and looked rather pissed off. It retaliated by swatting at Natsu roughly.
(Writer's block, sorry it took awhile. xP)

" I've seen you do better than that! " She said, and it was almost a taunt. He could fight that thing couldn't he? Never seen him back off from a challenge like this! It was weird, even if the creatures where cute.
Cute here just meant dangerous!
" This is all I can think of, if they're blocking the path, then we're just gonna have to go around them. " The celestial wizard said, and grabbed a key. " Open! Gate of the maiden! Virgo! "
There was a poof, and suddenly a short haired girl in pink hair dressed in a maid outfit arrived. Seemingly out of thin air. " You summoned princess? "
