"You did what?"

Natsu grinned at me, waving the paper in my face. I snatched it from his hand, glaring as I looked it over. I had only been a part of Fairy Tail a few days, and he was already trying to get me kicked out?

"I can't do that, Natsu. It's against the rules, and I haven't even been here long."

"Come on! You're strong enough, right? I saw those moves of yours when you first came, you knocked Loke out cold! If we succeed, Jii-chan will really approve of us."

"Aye."

"Why ask me?"

"Because-" Lucy stood up, cutting him off.

"Think of it as your team getting benefits by helping us, and us being benefitted by helping you. I'd like for some normal people to tag along for once…"

Well I can't argue with that logic. This would be entirely helpful to Kim and I; if we got more of a reputation perhaps we'd be able to actually buy a bigger home. It wouldn't be too bad to have excess money to spend on clothes either…

"You've got yourself a deal. We'll split the money however we can."I held out my hand, which Natsu took enthusiastically.

"YOU GOT IT!" He shouted, fired up. "Let's go!"

I already had a bad feeling about this.
