With a sudden halt coming from the carriage, it caused Natsu to recover in a flash and Lisanna to jerk forward in surprise.

"This as far as I can go!" The man exclaimed.

The 'teammates' ended up exiting the carriage and as the horses pulled the transportation away, the other three noticed that they ended up in the middle of no where.

"Finally! I'm off that thing!" Natsu said with a sigh of relief.

"So..what's the job about anyway? You dragged me out of the guild without explaining anything."

Without any verbal action, he quietly handed a tan paper to the female beside him and started to glance every direction, wondering where they should head off to next.

"A searching job?.. That's pretty simple for such a good pay."

Natsu shrugged and tried hiding the fact that it was a simple job with a good pay, it fit perfectly with Lucy's job taste. We wonder why?

"Right..? Now all we need is to find the person that handed out the request!"

Peeking behind the paper, that had the job on it, there was a map behind. Something that they could use for a reference to go and find this city. But, with that, Natsu was off and so his sighing partners decided to follow, trusting him this time.

After a bit and without a problem, they managed to find a town. Hopefully, it was the one they were looking for.

"Finally, a town.." Lisanna wheezed.

The energetic pink head also seemed to be pretty dead tired after just a straight hour of running all over the place.

"Aye.." Happy added.

Lisanna seemed to struggle to catch up with the other two but she seemed more stable than the other two, who decided to burn out all of that energy even before the job started.

"Let's find a place to stop at.."

A sweet looking woman quickly noticed the tired and young wizards struggling to drag themselves so maybe a bit of food would help them restore themselves?

"You kids seem tired! How about about a good meal to restore yourselves!"

As the food was placed down, Natsu and Happy dug in gratefully and Lisanna ate like any other person would eat. The people around them couldn't help but stare in disbelief.

After a good and refreshing meal, the woman that invite them in beamed. She seemed glad that she was able to help in a way.

"Ah, you younglings look much better now. Thank goodness!"

With a few smiles sent back at her, Lisanna quickly reached to her pocket and pulled out a few bills.

"I'll pay!"

Lisanna suggested but with a simple hand gesture from the woman. She knew the famous and somewhat infamous Fairy Tail wizards just ate her food, no way can she accept the money. This was a simple way to pay back.

"Oh, dear. No need, you're a Fairy Tail wizard. I'll let it slide this time!" She claimed with a wink.

Natsu and his little exceed did their little cheer, getting more pumped up. Thanking the woman and dragging Lisanna away, they can finally start their job.
