Luna eased back into her seat with a grumble, then let out a long sigh, looking over at Natsu. "Yeah. He was fine for a long time, but I guess something happened on a mission with Erza and Juvia in the past. No one ever really told me about what happened, but I could see people giving him weird glances now and then. Then one day about a year ago, he started lashing out at everyone; even me and Mom."
"Boohoo~!"
"Shut up." Luna snapped at the taunting fairy, before continuing the story. "It got to the point where he was getting into fights with everyone except the Guild Master. I think even he knew that messing with Gildarts would be biting off more than he could chew."
"Gildarts is the Guild Master?" Lucy blinked. Well that was better than Erza. Although did that mean Makarov was... no, don't think about that right now. Luna nodded silently to Lucy in either case. "I think... about six months ago it was that he left the guild. I'm not sure if Gildarts kicked him out, or if he left on his own.. I hear they had an argument, but dad wouldn't tell me what it was about. I think Mom knew, but whenever I went to ask she just gave me this look and just shook her head at me. That was...six months ago." She glanced down at the table. "Then a month later THAT thing showed up," she motioned at Apricot, who made a 'gasp, me?' gesture mockingly. "With some story about That Man being in trouble and needing her help... and Mom... she never gives up on anyone, even him. She went with that bug, and told me to stay behind to let Dad know when he came back." Throughout her story she never lifted her gaze from the table, but she sounded like she was on the verge of tears. "That was the last time we saw her."
Apricot leaned forward in the jar, "Awww, poor baby...are you gonna CRY...? Go on, cwy, weeeh, weeh~~!" She laughed, "Pathetic."
"Do you WANT me to give you to Natsu?" Lucy growled down at the pixie. "I'm sure the both of them are saving up their hottest flames for the likes of you."
