Meanwhile, within the Palace of Perdition, Natsu's team had taken a moment to stop and rest, having found no exit in sight yet, and many of in the group getting tired and hungry.

Wendy: Get up!

Lucy: Natsu! Pull yourself together!

Wendy: He's not moving!

Mirajane: Can you do anything for him, Wendy?

Wendy: I've tried everything, whatever is wrong with him I don't think I can help! I'm so sorry, if only I knew more healing magic, he wouldn't be suffering like this!

Wendy starts to cry as she look at the motionless body of Natsu, who was lying face down on the floor.

Lucy: Oh come on, don't blame yourself. You hear that Natsu?! You made Wendy cry!

Natsu quickly rose to his feet. 

Natsu: I can't help it, if I don't get food in me, I might kill over!

Mirajane: I doubt we'll find anything worth munching on.

Lily: And it won't be long until we're part of the scenery.

Lucy: Thanks for the optimism fur ball!

Happy: We're back!

Happy and Carla return from scouting the area.

Natsu: Any luck Happy?

Happy: No, the ceiling's blocked too.

Carla: There doesn't seem to be any way out of here.

Natsu: Man this sucks and after coming this far!

Mirajane: We came in as jailbreakers and now we're inmates.

Wendy: It's kinda pathetic.

Lucy: Geez, my feet are killing me, just how big is this place?

Yukino: Well, I've only heard rumors from the guards. I believe it's somewhere below the palace and is roughly three times the size of Crocus.

Lucy: I just had to ask.

Lily: I wish we had the foresight to draw a map of the place while we were looking around.

Lucy: By the way, Natsu, weren't you suppose to be in the tournament today?

Natsu: I had to save you, dummy.

Happy: (cheeky smile) He was so gung-ho on saving you, that he wouldn't listen to reason.

Natsu: (annoyed) Anyway...

Lucy: Aw, how sweet, I didn't know you cared so much.

Yukino: You know it's kinda funny... despite the situation we're in, not to mention the fate of the world being at stake... I can't help but feel at ease.

Mirajane: That's what happens when you're around friends, neat huh?

Yukino: Yes it is.

Everyone started to explore the cave once again.

Natsu: Oh uh, just so you know, I totally haven't forgotten your name or anything.

Yukino: It's Yukino. Don't worry about it, but if you don't mind, there is something I've been meaning to thank you for.

Natsu: What's that?

Yukino: The way you stood up for me. Lucy told me about it. She said when you heard why I was kicked out of Sabertooth, you stormed Crocus Gardens and took on the guild all by yourself.
