"Minna, I found a job!", Lucy yelled to Team Natsu.

"What kind of job is it?", Gray asked.

"Well, it says the we need to rid some bandits in a beach or something.", Lucy replied.

"I hope they have magic so we could kick their butts!", Natsu yelled.

"The reward isn't that much though. It's only 350,000 jewels.", Lucy said.

"Well, let's just take it. It will only take a little time to finish this job.", Erza said.

Lucy went up to Mira to show her the request. When Mir let her go, everyone started to head to the train station. Once they arrived, they noticed that Happy and Natsu went missing. They tried looking for them, but no luck.

"Where could those idiots be?", mumbled Gray.

Suddenly, Natsu came flying towards Gray, and he punched him the face. They started to fight.

"What did you call me, ice princess?"

"An idiot, you pyro freak!"

"Droopy eyes!"

"Slanted eyes!"

A dust cloud appeared around them as they started to punch each other in the face. Lucy, and Happy were sweat-dropping at their actions.

Natsu and Gray forgot that Erza was there, watching them angrily. They didn't noticed the punch that came forwarding at them. They were sent flying towards the wall, leaving a huge crack on the wall.

"You two idiots are fighting, and there are people here! Try to be careful next time, or I will do three times worse.", Erza said, a dark aura emitting from her.

"Aye, ma'am!", they both said, putting their heads down on the ground.

'They sound like Happy', Lucy thought in her head.

They were in a train. Natsu was busy laying his head down on the seat, his motion sickness taking over him. His face was blue from all that motion on the train. Everyone was busy staring, or mocking at him. Mostly, Gray.

They arrived at their destination, and they didn't noticed that the beach was actually abandoned by the previous owner. Bandits only raid beaches when there is loot hidden away. The owner must've took all of his loot, and left the beach with no treasure to steal for bandits.

But they just arrived, and they didn't want to leave immediately.

"I'm starting to think that the request was a fake.", Lucy said.

"Yeah, 'cause, I see no one around.", Happy said, as he was floating above the group.

"Well, maybe we should wait for them to arrive. They sometimes wait for us mages to leave, and then they'll loot the place.", Erza said.

"I'm in!", Natsu yelled from afar.

"How the hell did he get down there so fast?", Gray asked confusingly.

"Probably because he ate too much, and had a lot of energy to run that far.", Happy replied casually. Lucy was sweat dropping from Happy's response.

"Hey, I found something!", once again, Natsu was yelling from afar.

The team was surprised, and decided to check out what Natsu found. They arrived, and they saw what looked like a strange necklace.

Natsu picked it up and examined it.

"Is he examining it?!", Happy yelled in shock.

"Quiet, I'm trying to think what this is?", Natsu said.

"HE'S THINKING?!", everyone yelled in confusion.

Natsu doesn't think or examine things. He just says something randomly, and ask someone what the object is. But this time it's different.

"Oh, hey look. There's a text here!", Natsu said in surprise.

He handed it to Erza, so she could read it. Once she read it, the ground below them started to shake.

"What did you do, Erza?!", Lucy yelled to her.

"I only read the text, and this happened.", Erza replied.

What they didn't know next is that a portal appeared beneath them, and they got sucked in. The only ones that stayed, is Gray's t-shirt, and the necklace.
