Chapter 24
Mission Blocker
Paper gripped tightly in hand Natsu glanced around the guild, searching for a certain blonde head. He'd found the perfect request and now all he had to do was ask Lucy to come with him. It would be easy; he'd done it a hundred times before. Just go up to her and tell her they were going on a mission. Easy.
He finally caught sight of her across the room. She was sitting and chatting casually with Cana.
"Hey Natsu," Cana slurred drunkenly as he neared the pair. "What's up?"
Natsu glanced at Lucy, then at Cana, then back again.
