Gray's POV

After Lucy got the job accepted by Mira, we all headed to the train station. We were apparently going to this town that was a 4 hour train ride away. It said on the flyer that the Serenity Stone was located below the city.

"So we just have to grab the stone and bring it back?" I questioned Lucy.

"That's what the flyer said," She looked down and frowned at the paper, "It's strange, it doesn't say that we have to meet up with anyone before hand, it just says to go do the job and then come back."

"That is strange," Wendy whispered, "Do we have to return the stone to anyone once we've gotten it?"

"Well it says to go to the Bright Forest and drop it off, but it doesn't say who to drop it off to." Lucy said.

"How will we know who to drop it off to?" I asked her.

"Don't know, don't care." Natsu stated as he walked with his hands behind his head. Lucy just looked at him, "I think it would be a good idea to understand who we are supposed to give it to." Natsu just shrugged his shoulders and continued walking.

"I think our best bet is to get the stone first, then we will follow the instructions, and take it to the forest," Erza replied, "We can figure out who we drop it off to later."

We arrived at the train station, and everyone got on board. Everyone but Natsu that is, he just stood there frowning at the train.

"Oi! Fire brain, let's go!" I shouted at him. He looks up at me with an angered face. "What did you just call me?" He said angrily. Before I could reply, Erza grabbed Natsu and pulled him on the train. As she was dragging him he was shouting, "Hey! Quit it! Ahh!"

"What an idiot, it's what he gets for refusing to come on the train."

As the train started moving Natsu started getting really sick. "Wendy, can you give that motion sickness spell... please." He started gagging between words.

"Sorry Natsu, the more I use it, the less it becomes effective. So I was planning on using it only when you absolutely need it." She said with a look of pity.

"Just pull yourself together and get over it!" Carla yelled at Natsu. He just sat there, his face turning blue, and a little bit of drool coming out of his mouth.

While we were on the long train ride, I just stared out the window, listening to Natsu's moans. "The description of the flyer never said anything about why this stone is so important. I wonder what is does." While I was busy thinking up ideas on what the stone might do, we pulled into the train station.

We all got off the train, besides Natsu. Lucy ran back onto the train and grabbed his arm and brought it over her shoulder. She was trying to help him walk, but she was more like carrying him. I sighed and looked at the city, it was huge. All of the buildings looked old and fragile. The crumbling bricks covered in long vines that wrapped around every building. "These buildings look like they would fall over if pushed. It looks like the only thing that is holding them up is the vines that are strangling them.When were these things built?!?"
