The morning sun was once again late to the party and Ianthe was already in full force. She had gotten up at least an hour before the sun was set to rise. Moving out of that dingy hotel and into the Fairy Tail guild had done wonders for her sleep. Ianthe had decided to put her pride in her pocket about her living situation and felt that this was better in more ways than one, especially since she would be saving money for a far better living expereince. She could feel her heart racing in her chest after the one-hundredth push-up, the only reason she was ever up this early was to get in some exercise. Having already prepared herself for a job set to start later on today, the young shark woman wasted no time in keeping her daily routine up until she was met with the morning sun.

And as usual, she was in fact met with the morning sun, completing her daily routine with a shower and dressing in a tank top, a mid-drift jacket, some pants, and sneakers. With this, she was ready for the day and out of the door for work. Being a part of the Fairy Tail guild she had access to different types of quests without having to search around as she did before. This made getting jobs done so much easier and she thanked them for being useful in at least that sense of the word. Looking over the board she noticed a quest that seemed simple enough and that she could do more than once it seemed. Taking in the information she needed she made her way out of the guild and towards her destination which would lead her to the shopping district of Magnolia which was along Magnolia's streets.

It didn't take long before she was in the midst of the shopping district. The walk from the guild hall to her location took her about five minutes at most. She'd pick out one of the shops because it seemed like all of them needed the help protecting their wares so it didn't matter where she went she would still get paid. Slipping into a shop that looked like it sold jewelry she greeted the shopkeeper with a smile and explained why she was there all the while showing her Fairy Tail tattoo to the woman. She didn't have to really do that but it would make it easier to identify herself and it would put the shopkeeper at ease. The shopkeeper was a woman about four feet high with thick red hair and golden eyes behind round glasses. Ianthe learned her name was Maria and she wasted no time taking Ianthe's help.

Because Ianthe had arrived at the shop early she was given the rundown of the place so that she could protect it better. The shop as she learned was named Precious Gems From Around The World. To Ianthe, it was pretty extravagant but then again so was the store. The shop was a two-story building with the most expensive and rare items being on the second floor. The interior of the shop wasn't too big and it felt cozier than anything else. Having been given the basic rundown of the place Ianthe was told to explore and get familiar on her own while Maria had customers to take care of. Doing as she was told Ianthe walked around, paying attention to who came in and out and taking note of the main area as well as the upstairs area. Ianthe had noticed some suspicious people but she said nothing for now.

Of course, Ianthe would say nothing as she eyed people who looked a little too suspicious. Ianthe didn't need the shopkeeper to be worried so soon and it would be better to deal with them if they came around later on. So with that in mind, she continued doing what was asked of her until she felt she got the lay of the land down in her mind. With much time left to spare Ianthe excused herself in order to grab some food and take care of a few other things. It didn't take long before the sun fell and before it could vanish behind the horizon Ianthe was back at the shop she would be protecting throughout the night. Once there she waited for Maria to finish with the last customer and give her some more details about the shop before leaving for the night. Ianthe made her way upstairs.

From the second floor, she could see just who would be coming in and out. Even from the back, there were windows on the second floor that would allow her to check all sides. For the first hour of the night, all things were silent, no one entered the building or left and this was good. The sky had gotten thick with clouds and she noticed that after a moment it began to rain. This was good, anyone coming in wet would make more noise than they needed and the rain was coming down very heavy. Another hour went by and nothing happened but the rain kept coming down. Ianthe took the time to move from window to window and to check all the doors to make sure they were locked even though she knew they were she still wanted to make sure nothing slipped by her. At this point, she had to be ready for anything.

The third hour of the night had passed by and she could hear movement outside near the backdoor. Of course, it would make sense for them to try to enter through that way, so fucking typical. Now due to her lack of spells she had to rely on wit and not much else. Lack of strength also put her at a disadvantage but she was given a weapon, a metal bat so she would have to make this work. Little did the shopkeeper know Ianthe had set up a few booby traps. None of these traps were set up to harm anything in the store and they wouldn't put the scum who ran into those traps on the fast track to doing any damage. Rushing to the window where she could see the back of the shop, she spotted three dark-clothed figures with what looked to be crowbars.

These were the individuals that she had to stop. Slipping downstairs and hiding out of sight from the three individuals. Ianthe could hear the back door being broken into. Its wood creaked and cracked against the crowbar that was being jammed into the small slot where the lock was. The sound was loud but not a soul answered the call of the breaking because there would be no one around during these hours. It was amazing that the guards of this town weren't being placed in this area for this reason alone. From what Ianthe understood the number of break-ins had increased and they hardly stole anything they just vandalized the place, and it was bad. She could only assume that the reliance on the Fairy Tail guild and its members was the driving force in alleviating a lot of the heavy lifting the Magnolia Guards had to do.

With all that thinking going on the criminals eventually broke in which broke Ianthe out of her own head. Peaking from her hiding spot where she would be able to see them but they wouldn't be able to see her, She could see that these three were so well hidden behind their clothes that she couldn't tell if they were a man or a woman. Although none of that really mattered she would smile with glee as the first person stepped in, setting off the first trap which was a simple tripwire that dropped a brick from above on the person's head, knocking them out cold. Within the commotion of the triggered trap and the downed man, Ianthe slipped from her hiding spot, getting real low and then surprising the other two with two quick swings with the bat across their kneecaps. Ianthe didn't flinch at the screams they made.

She didn't want to kill them but she also wanted to teach them a lesson before that, she wanted some answers. Pointing her bat at one of them she asked who sent them and why. Apparently, according to one crying bastard they were sent because the debt wasn't being paid and according to these goons a lot of people stop paying their dues. Ianthe didn't like the sound of that, it must mean someone higher up was targetting these people. It really was a shame but she didn't really get paid to do all this extra lifting. Calling in for the magnolia guards to haul them away before they could get to the shop's location she bashed in all three of their legs. Once she made sure they couldn't walk into another store she called the Shopkeeper who promptly came over and thanked and paid Ianthe. The Magnolia Guards came with the rising sun and Ianthe departed back to the guild.
