Axel and Lucy sat upon stools as they lay their heads against the counter. Axel in particular was holding his head. "Oh? You two don't seem so well. What's the matter?" Mirajane asked the two. "The job at Lupinus from earlier," Lucy told her, "Sheesh... Natsu spewed fire everywhere... Gray froze everything... and Erza..." Lucy screamed, "Erza Especially!" Lucy grabbed her own head.

"Hey, Lucy... you okay?" Mirajane asked. "Anyway, with all that destruction, some of the reward goes to pay reparations!... Luckily, thanks to Axel, we kept most of the reward..." Lucy said, placing her head back down. "Yeah... mending things back together was a lot more straining than it should have been..." Axel muttered, "I liked going on adventures with them, but now I've got a splitting headache."

Lucy began to cry, "At this rate, I won't be able to pay this month's rent!" She cried. "Then why don't I recommend a perfect job for you?" Mirajane told her, "It's right up your alley, Lucy, and there's no need to worry about destroying anything!" -"Oh?" Lucy uttered.

"Onibas? The city from the Lullaby incident," Lucy said. "Natsu, we're here," Happy told Natsu, who was laying on the ground sick. "It's no use..." Gray told him as they left Natsu and Happy behind, "So it's a request for us to use our magic to attract lots of people to see a play, right?"

"Exactly. Sounds fun, right?" Lucy told him, "Natsu can shoot fire, and you two can put on a show with your Creation Magic and her Requipping! Then I'll move everyone's hearts with Lyra's singing, while Axel uses his magic to make some stars dance around her!"

"It'll be a wonderful performance, don't you think? If I ever finish my novel, I hope it gets turned into a play," Lucy told them, "Right! This is a great opportunity to study staging a play!" Axel looked at Lucy, "You're writing a novel?" He asked. Lucy only nodded.

Eventually they reached a theater. "Ooh!" They all looked in awe. "Wow," Axel muttered. "It's a pretty nice place," Happy said. "Let's go!" Lucy said, turning her head back. "Um..." a man, who peeked from the entrance, called their attention, "You are the people from Fairy Tail, yes?"

"Yes," Lucy replied. "Thank you very much for accepting my request!" The man told them. "Sure! Just leave the stage work to us!" Lucy told him. "About that..." the man began, "We have a bit of a problem..." They all hummed in question.

"What?! The actors have all run out on you?!" Lucy asked. "That is correct, thank you very much," the man said, peeking from behind a curtain. "Thanks for what?" Happy muttered. "My plays have been more and more unpopular. So now the actors are ashamed to be in my productions!" He told them, "Even my wife got tired of me chasing my dreams and left me!"

"Ouch... that's real sad..." Axel muttered. "This was my last chance! Thank you so very much!" The man exclaimed. "You don't get this "thanking" thing, do you?" Gray asked. "Anyway, the play is canceled! Thank you very much!" The man exclaimed.
