Chapter 22
Concluding Resolve
Natsu avoided the guild for the next few days. He went fishing with Happy, hunted some giant monsters in the forest, and generally did everything possible to avoid having to face Lucy or his guild mates.
By the fourth day Natsu was starting to feel very lonely. He loved spending time with Happy and they always had fun together, but he missed having fun with everyone at the guild.
Staring out into the sunset, Natsu came to a decision. Yes, he liked Lucy but if he was going to do anything he would do it his way…or so he hoped.
