Natsu's P.O.V.

I was whistling, looking around town with happy on my shoulder.

I felt his warm breath towards my chin, and it was Happy, sleeping.

I patted him on the head and continued.

Since I was alone, I had nothing to do..It was boring.

That's when I noticed Gajeel, I mean, Ironhead walking towards me, with PantherLily.

"Hey, Ironhead," I greeted. "What ya' doin' around?" I asked.

"Nah, Just walkin'," he said.

We naturally talked to each other and started walking towards the street. Quite a surprise that we didn't fight.

Then I felt a very creepy chill run down my spine and started to get nervous. I think Ironhead felt that too. Our eyes looked back.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" We screamed, terrified.

The stupid blonde was making a scary face, I mean, a really scary face.

The blonde laughed.

"Trickin' people's fun, eh?" He asked.

Ironhead and I sighed in relief.

"HEY! BAKA! WE ALMOST DIED!" We shouted.

"What ya' call me?!" He asked,again with that scary face.

"S...Sorry.." We said, nervously.

He started to walk with us, and I stared at him for a while.

Laxus raised his eyebrow with a confused look on his face. "What ya' lookin' at?" He asked.

"You know, you actually are really tall," I said. He bursted out in laughter. "Of course I am! I'm older than you," He said, patting my pink head.

Wow, Laxus has never been this nice to me, I thought.

"Hey, Fireball, are you a baka or were you born like that?" Ironhead asked.

"What ya' say?!" I shouted at him. "Joke, man," He said with a smirk on his face and we continued.

Now, we heard some familiar voices near the Ice cream stand, and it was Wendy and Carla.

They were fighting about something.

"No, Carla! Strawberry is the best!" Wendy shouted. "No! Vanilla!" "Strawberry!" "Vanilla!" Then they both "hmph"ed, and looked away from each other, cross-armed.

"Hey! Wendy! Carla!" I called, waving my hand.

"Natsu-san! Minna!" Wendy greeted and ran over to us. Carla flew to us, too.

"What are you guys fighting for?" I asked.

"We were walking together, and found the ice cream stand. We walked over, and were choosing our flavor, and noticed we only had money for one cone," Wendy explained.

"Decided to share, but we had different types of taste, and now we're fighting for it," Carla finished.

"Hmm..Does anybody have money?" I asked, no answer. "Hey, Ironhead, can't you make coins out of your iron?" I asked. "Hey, I'm not an iron-producer," He said.

I kept on thinking of the solution just when I saw Kerry and Kayle running to us.

"Natsu~! Minna~!" They called.

"Oye," I said.

"Is there anything that happened?" Kerry asked.

Wendy explained.

"Wait. How much do you need?" Kayle asked.

"50 jen," Wendy said. (A/N: Jewels=Dollar Bills, Jen=Coins. The word jen, I made it up.)

Kayle digged her pocket. "Here," She said, and handed over 50 jen.

"Hey, How'd you get that?" asked Kerry. "Change from the bakery," Kayle answered.

Wendy and Carla had sparkles coming out from their eyes.

"Arigato Gojaimasu!" Wendy and Carla shouted, took the jens, and ran over to the  casheir. They came back with two ice cream cones. We started to walk together again.

I saw Wendy already finished hers. "Jeez, Wendy,That good?" I asked. "YES!" She shouted.

"Only the ones who are in love with sweets can understand!" Kerry said dramatically, Kayle nodding in agreement.

I sweat dropped and kept walking until I noticed Sting and Rogue.

"Oye, Guys!" I shouted.

"Natsu-kun?" Sting and Rogue said. "Wow, Meet here," Sting said.

"Yeah," I said.

"What ya'll doing over here?" Ironhead asked.

"We were just walking around since we had some time left until the train.." Rogue said, and our faces turned purple and we started to feel like we're about to puke.

"Ugh, Sick of trains..Just by listening to them," We all said, including me. Except for Wendy and Laxus.

"Wait, how come Wendy and Laxus don't get affected by trains?" Lector asked. "I don't know, maybe because I'm a sky dragon slayer, and I can heal people," Wendy said.

"But I thought you can't heal yourself," I said. "Well..then..I don't know.." Wendy said.

"How bout' Laxus?" I asked. "I guess it's because I wasn't taught by a dragon," Laxus said.

"Wait, But Wendy was," I said.

Then we all gathered up to Wendy and stared at her. "How..come..you..don't..." We said in a dark, creepy voice.

"Go..Go Men Na Sai!!" Wendy shouted, scared. We leaned back.

"Kerry and Kayle do get motion sickness?" I asked them.

"Yep, hate vehicles," They said in union.

"Okay, let's stop talkin' about trains or any kind of vehicle, and start walkin'," Laxus instructed.

Then we all walked when I noticed that Happy was awake.

"Natsu..." He said in a weak, sleepy voice and flew up so he can yawn and stretch.

I poked him on his forehead. "You sleepyhead," I said.

Happy had. a grumpy face on him. "I'm not a SLEEPYHEAD!!" Happy shouted.

We all laughed.
