"Okay, guys. Apparently, Mr. Know-it-all got us lost in the woods…" began Candace, but Natsu interrupted her. "I SAID SO!" Candace, still ignoring him, continued. "I'll be leading the way," Phineas jumped off the log. He didn't like Candace leading the way, she's also forgetful. Sigh, he thought, will no one ask me if I want to lead? But he had no other choice, so he followed the gang.

Walking, walking, and more walking. Huh, life's DULL when you're having a crazy sister. Candace stops once and a while to lick her index finger, put it in the air and say, "No wind, funny…" Natsu covered his face in disgust, "SERIOUSLY?" he muttered. After a while, the whole group stops. "What?" asked Candace. "We're tired," answered Phineas. "Get up," Candace said. Phineas shook his head. "What if I lead, huh, Candace?" he said rather angrily. Natsu laughed. "Looks like we're lost ag-" he said when a sudden "NATSU!" was heard from a distance. Natsu approached the sound.
/===/===
"HAPPY!" Natsu said happily. Happy coughed. "Where are we, Natsu… and who are they?" he said, pointing to the others. "Er, I'll tell you what happened along the way. HOW DID YOU GET HERE, Happy?" Erza asked the same thing. Phineas looked at Happy. "WOW! THAT CAT'S GOT WINGS!" he exclaimed. Happy grinned. "Yeah, I could fly, too!" he said.

Phineas was leading the way. His eyes flicked once and a while side to side, trying to find the lake. Then he stopped and sniffed. "It's that way," he pointed behind a huge tree. You can't see what's behind it, because it was huge! GIGANTIC! Candace doubtfully examined the tree. "Hmmm… Looks like we'll have to cut a hole through," she said. Natsu sighed. "OFCOURSE WE NEED TO! WHAT DO YOU THINK, WE COULD WALK THROUGH IT LIKE A GHOST OR SOMETHING?" he exploded. "ALRIGHT, YOU DO IT, THEN. LET'S SEE IF YOU'RE REALLY CLEVER…" said Candace.
/===/===
Natsu positioned himself infront of the tree then suddenly breathed fire. It burned a hole through the tree. Candace watched, open-mouthed. "Heehee," said Natsu as he swept the ashes off his shirt. "well? What do you think?" he added. Candace freaked out. "YOU COULD BREATHE… FIRE!" she said breathlessly. "'Course I could. Am I a dragon slayer for nothing?" he snapped back. Phineas was impressed. "What's a dragon slayer?" he asked Natsu. Natsu patted him on the head. "Cool dudes like me," he said and winked. Then he turned around and walked through the hole. "NATSU! Wait for me!" shouted Happy.
