Lucy sighed and dragged her feet along the dusty ground, this expedition was hopeless... there's no way that ANOTHER dragon slayer is out there, she still couldn't believe that Natsu dragged them all into a month long journey to find "Carrie" the supposed "Dark dragon slayer" "Natsu, can't we just give up? The stupid dragon slayer will probably be some bloody rumour that we've chased down" Gray groaned.

"But I KNOW this is a real dragon slayer" Natsu cried.

"If we don't find 'Carrie' then I swear I'll kill you when we get back"

"Is that a challenge you droopy eyed bastard?"

"I guess it is squinty eyes!"

"Why you son of a..."

Lucy just ignored the boys shouting every name under the sun at each other, she glanced at Erza who had had just about enough.

"Shut the hell up guys!" Erza screeched.

The group grew silent as they approached a small oasis, Natsu cried out in joy and made a break for the water as if it would run away if he didn't get there quick enough, suddenly a dark binding wrapped around him and pulled him away from their sight.

"Oh god... here we go again" they sighed
