Chapter 71

No Pushing

After turning Batlaan and the incriminating papers over to the authorities, Lucy, Natsu, and Happy wearily made their way home.

The train ride back home was completely miserable, but that wasn't unusual for Natsu. To kept himself from vomiting he tried to concentrate on his nakama's conversation.

"I bet you're happy," Happy chirped, a sly smile on his face. "Your seduction act finally worked. Batlaan was awfully rich maybe you should have married him."

"Ugh," Lucy groaned in exasperation. "No way, I hate pushy guys. They are so immature."

Natsu let out a pitiful whine that was only partially motion-sickness.
