That Evening, Game Night at the Guild:
"Okay everyone! Our next game will be hide and seek!" Mira declared from the stage. She held up a bowl. "I'll pick everyone's partners! The first person has to hide, and the second person has to seek! Your boundaries are all of Magnolia!"
She fished around in the jar and came up with two papers. "Lucy and Natsu! So Lucy will hide and Natsu will find her."
Natsu turned to Lucy and grinned. "I think I can handle that!"
"Levy and Gajeel!"
"Elfman and Evergreen!"
"Grey and Juvia!"
She kept calling names until the bowl was empty.
"Now, for those of you who think the dragon slayers have an advantage," she called, pointing at her nose, "don't you worry!" She held up a spray bottle. "Master has given me this to mask their scent!"
Gajeel and Natsu visibly pouted.
Erza sprayed Lucy and Lisanna sprayed Levy.
"Now, the players hiding have 30 minutes to find a good spot before we send out your seekers! Good luck!"
Lucy followed Erza and Levy followed Lisanna out of the hall, as planned.
They met outside the Guild, where Mest was waiting for them.
"Mira pulled me in," he said, almost embarrassed. "I owed her a favor."
He teleported Lucy first, then came back and teleported Levy. Lisanna and Erza went back inside to tell Mira the deed was done.
