"Oh yeah... She's a real piece of beauty." Sting said as he was gazing at a thing of beauty. Only it wasn't a girl since he had Yukino. He was looking at a fine piece of machinery. A nice looking motorcycle right from a magazine. "This is what I call a hot rod. I just got to have it."

"Got to have what?" Erik said as he came over.

"This. Isn't it awesome." Sting said. "I've got to figure out how I'm going to get something like this. I have got to have it."

"Shouldn't you be more focused on finding out where all the cows are disappearing to?" Erik said. "Lots of farmers are claiming their cows are being stolen...especially since they're claiming it's the work of aliens. Can you imagine? Country folk will come up with anything to make their lives exciting." That was when Gajeel came in with a box.

"Hey! There's some sort of new bakery opened up!" Gajeel said. "It's called Sweetie Sweets. It sounds stupid, but they've got all kinds of sweets and they're delicious. Just check out the cupcakes." He said as he showed them off cupcakes you would find in some sort of sweets kingdom. "I don't know where the place comes from, but I'm not complaining." He said as he helped himself to one and it tasted so sweet and fluffy. "You guys got to go down and try it."

"Can't. I've got to find ways to save money if I'm going to get this motorcycle." Sting said. "Which will take me about..." He tried to figure it out, but the answer just made him depressed. "Way too long."

"Dude, if you're looking to make some money, just go get a job." Gajeel said. "I still help with construction crew."

"Yeah. Natsu still sends some pics of us to make a little extra cash." Erik said. "Besides, with so many of us, you can handle a job without worrying about leaving early."

"Not a bad idea." Sting said as he might be able to save more money by doing that. He just needs to find one.

...

Magnolia

Sting decided to take a look around Magnolia to find a job that could help him make some extra money. He just needed to find a place that was hiring.

"Taxi driver? I don't know about that. Librarian? I don't like being so quiet. Security guard? I already do better than them." Sting said as he tried to find a good job on his phone. "There's got to be something that pays good and wouldn't be too bad." He searched around until he walked right past a help wanted a sign. "Hello there. Help wanted... The pay looks pretty good. What is this place?" He looked up at the business sign and saw that it was called Sweetie Sweets. "This must be the new bakery that Gajeel mentioned."

"That's right!" Sting got a little spooked as a lady just appeared out of nowhere behind him. He was met with a lady in blonde hair in pig tails with very pink cheeks and wore a magenta dress that poofs out with laces and a cupcake-design. "I'm Tammy."

"Are you the manager?" Sting questioned. He was hoping for an answer, but the way she stood there and smiled was creepy. "I'm Sting, and I saw you were hiring."

"Fantastic! You want the job!" Tammy said as she practically forced him inside. Sting had a look around and the place looked like the inside of a sweets castle and was making him rather uncomfortable.

"Maybe this isn't a good idea." Sting said as he tried to back away, but Tammy practically put him to work and put him behind the counter.

"You just stand here and take the orders." Tammy said.

"You're hiring me just like that?" Sting questioned as he thought this was getting weird. "I think I'll just leave."

"We're also throwing this in for the top employee." Tammy said as she pulled back a curtain and saw that it was an awesome motorcycle that Sting would love to have.

"When can I start?" Sting said.

"Right now. I'll just be in the back." Tammy said as she went on back there.

"Wait! Aren't you going to guide me or something?" Sting questioned. This was really weird to him, but that was when he heard the bell and saw he had a customer. "Uh... May I help you?"

"Can I get a half a dozen donuts?" The customer asked.

"Let me just..." That was when he saw a box of donuts slide out from the back...arriving rather quickly. Sting thought it was weird, but he just handed it over to the customer. The place might seem weird, but it seems to have good service. While Sting was dealing with the customers, Tammy was working on the goods, but something weird was going on back there.

"Everything is going as planned, Great One." Tammy said.

"Excellent. The first phase has gone rather well." What is the deal with this new bakery?

...

The Next Day

Sting has been doing rather well so far. The job seemed rather easy, and he hasn't seen anything too weird. The rest of the team and Jellal came over to see how he was doing with the new job, but they were thinking the same thing themselves about the place.

"Seriously? Who the hell designed this place? Some little girl?" Erik said.

"No, but the manager is a woman named Tammy." Sting said.

"Are you the only one who works here?" Rogue questioned.

"Looks like it, but I guess it's because this place just opened and Tammy hasn't really hired any help." Tammy said.

"Where is this Tammy?" Natsu questioned.

"She usually stays in the back. I guess that's where she makes all the sweets." Sting said.

"Sting, it's fine that you want to make some extra money, but don't you think this place is a little...weird?" Jellal asked.

"Dude, they have cups made out of cake, and I'm talking about the type you drink out of." Sting said. "Yes this place is weird, and I hate it; but I'm not leaving without that awesome bike!"

"Well, we might as well order something to help you out." Wendy said. That was when a slice of vanilla cake for each of them came sliding out. "Hold on. We didn't even order."

"Don't look a gift horse in the mouth. This stuff is great." Gajeel said as he had no problem with the sweets and helped himself, but the others were a little hesitant about it. Luckily, they were saved by the bell as Jellal was alerted about another situation.

"Guys, looks like we have a chance to find those missing cows." Jellal said. "Something's been spotted near a dairy plant."

"Let's go!" Sting said as all of them went rushing out to find some answers to this weird mystery.

"Hold it. Shouldn't you stay here so you don't get fired?" Laxus questioned.

"It's cool, man! We got this!" Gajeel said as they all went without Sting, but he does wish that he could go with them.

...

The Team

Without Nova Ray to help, the rest of the team went on ahead to try and figure out what was going on. The six of them made their way down the street and intended to intercept whatever it was that was attacking farms.

"Jellal says that it should be right ahead and easy to see." Salamander said as they all hurried to what it was. They soon saw what it was and almost couldn't believe it.

"You've got to be kidding me." Cobra said. Something was actually flying in the air. It was a large metal sphere with a ring around it. They've never seen anything like it before. It was an unidentified flying object.

"A real UFO?!" Legion said.

"Well, it's not that surprising. Remember that black suit I had? That thing was actually some sort of alien." Salamander said.

"Still... How?!" Steel said.

"It doesn't matter! Legion! Maiden! Bring that thing down!" Salamander called. Maiden and Legion worked together as they combined their powers. Maiden generated a powerful twister with Legion launching a blast of lightning. The two attacks combined and blasted the ship and took it down in one shot. The ship was heading straight for the ground with Steel jumping right on it and went down with it. Once it crashed, Stell smashed his way through.

"I don't know what you are, but put whatever you have up in the air!" Steel said as he tore the ship open, but there was nothing but circuits and electronics in it. "Nothing? Was this thing piloting itself like a drone or something?" Shadow took a look at it himself and saw something weirder.

"Steel! Open it up here!" Shadow said. Steel opened up the other half and they found one of the missing cows with it walking right out. It even gave Shadow a gross lick. "This is weird. Why are alien ships taking cows?"

"Look! There's some milk in here too! This ship attacked a dairy plant." Maiden said as she found bottles. "This makes no sense. Why would aliens want our milk?"

"I think we're about to find out." Erik said as he spotted something even stranger. They looked up and saw a whole fleet of those same ships. Things just keep getting stranger and stranger.

...

Sting

As for Sting, he was stuck at work with demanding customers. The bakery seems to be doing rather well, but it's a little tough for Sting to handle all of it.

"Slow down! Slow down! I'm trying to get all the orders!" Sting said as he tried to keep up with all of them.

"Could I get some fries?!"

"For the last time, this is a bakery! We don't have fries!" Sting said with anger. "Tammy! I could use a little help with these orders!"

"Great! I'll be in the back!" Tammy said and made her way to the back. That's not what Sting meant and he was getting really annoyed. The sweets just kept sliding out with Sting still trying. It got so bad that he had to throw the food.

"I'm going as fast as I can! Just take it!" Sting called as he kept throwing sweets until he ran out of some to throw. "Hey! Tammy! I still need some sweets here!" He called, but there was no answer and there were some demanding customers. "Uh... I'll be back!" He said and hurried off to the back of the bakery. Once he got back there, he slammed the door shut. "Tammy, I can't... What?" He was about to give his boss a piece of mind until he noticed something strange. The room looked more mechanical. He was also standing on a glass floor and could see all the missing cows. "This isn't a bakery! What is this place?!"

"It is my base while staying on your planet. What you call a bakery was the perfect cover."

"So this is where all the cows went missing. Why are you here?! What is all this?!" Sting said.

"The elixir provided from those creatures help us in our plans."

"You mean milk?" Sting questioned.

"Yes. It was an excellent source for me in my plans." That was when the back wall opened up and he could see the true mastermind. It certainly wasn't what Sting was expecting. "Fear me, human."

"You're... You're a living and talking scoop of vanilla ice cream?" Sting questioned as he was actually talking to a piece of ice cream with a face in a liquid case.

"Perhaps to you, but I am far superior." The alien said and activated a machine with some sort of cream-like substance gathering. Then, it actually formed Tammy herself.

"It's quite delicious, but you shouldn't be in the back." Tammy said. That was when she tried to attack him. He avoided a few hits until he blasted her with his powers and she fell apart into that cream again.

"Oh man! Too much!" Sting said.

"Fear not, human. There's more where she came from." The alien said and he soon found himself surrounded by multiple Tammies. Each one of them tried to attack him, but he kept blasting them apart. However, there were too many for him alone and the alien just kept making more.

"I still don't get it! Why are you doing this?!" Sting said.

"To collect your planet's financial pieces and become one of the wealthiest beings in the galaxy. Rich in all kinds of planet finances." The alien said. "Once I'm satisfied, I will destroy your planet!" He laughed as he showed a giant machine down below set to fire a powerful laser right into the planet's core.

"What?! Why?! What did we do to you?!" Sting said.

"Its is our way." The alien said and just kept laughing. Sting kept firing away with his rays, but there were too many Tammies for him to fight off. Luckily, he had an idea as he pushed through and went straight for the alien. "What are you doing?!"

"I'm guessing your plans to blow our planet won't start with you still here." Sting said as he took the alien and his case right out of there. He forced his way through and tried to hurry out of the bakery. Of course, there was only one way he wanted to go once he saw a way out. He snatched the motorcycle and started driving. "Yeah, baby!"

"Foolish human! I have created an army at my service! Your city is doomed. Your planet is doomed!" The alien claimed.

"I wouldn't be too sure about that!" Sting said as he drove into the city, but it looks like it's all up to him.

...

The Airship

"This makes no sense." Jellal said as he monitored the mission with the team fighting off the ships. "Where did these ships even come from?" As he tried to figure out answers, he heard the sound of an engine and saw Sting ride right in with his new ride and hostage.

"Oh yeah! I'm awesome!" Sting said.

"Sting?! How did you drive that motorcycle in here?!" Jellal questioned.

"Don't ask. You'll ruin the awesome." Sting said.

"Foolish human!" The alien shouted. "You have doomed yourself! I have destroyed many planets! Submit to me or you shall be..." Sting shut him up by shutting him right in the freezer.

"Was that talking ice cream?" Jellal questioned.

"It's a long story, but there's no time." Sting said. They needed a plan, but there was only one person who can give them. So, he opened up the freezer. "Start talking, vanilla! How do I stop your army?! How do I stop your doomsday device from destroying our planet?!"

"What?!" Jellal said.

"Ha! You think I will tell? You are doomed, I say!" The alien said. "Only I know how to stop it, and you can do nothing that will get me to talk." Sting had a way to change that as he grabbed him out of there and placed him in a bowl. "Just wait until I... Uh... What is this?"

"Desert." Sting said with that scaring him. "I wonder how good the source of all those sweets are."

"You... You're just trying to scare me!" The alien said.

"Am I? How do you like some hot fudge straight out of the microwave?" Sting said as he took some and poured it right on the alien with it burning him.

"Okay! Okay! Water will stop my army! It breaks our molecular structure!" The alien said. "Please don't eat me!"

"Keep talking." Sting said as he was actually interrogating ice cream.

"This day just keeps getting weirder and weirder." Jellal said.

...

Nova Ray

Once Sting got some answers, he became Nova Ray and started riding straight through the city. He can't help the others with the ships, but he can stop the rest of it. Now that he knows what to do, it was time he really got to work. He drove around on his motorcycle until he was cut off by some of the Tammies.

"Hi there. Could you please give back our creator so we can destroy your planet?" Tammy asked.

"Not gonna happen." Ray said. All of them charged right at him to attack him, but he knew how to stop them. He shot at a fire hydrant and water started shooting out of there. Some of the water splashed against the Tammies and they were actually melting.

"Yuck. I don't like getting wet." Tammy said.

"Too bad because that's what's going to happen." Ray said as he pulled the front wheel in front of the water and caused water to scatter everywhere with more and more of them falling apart. He kept going with it until there was no Tammies left. "You're a rotten manager Tammy, but I am so good on this thing you gave me."

"But you swiped it." He looked behind him and saw even more Tammies.

"Okay. Let's see if this thing can help me save the world." Ray said and started riding. With the knowledge he has, he was able to face each and every Tammy that the alien created. Finding sources of water to help him, he was able to have each one of them break apart and really put that motorcycle through the ringer.

...

Sweetie Sweets

After Ray did everything he could and managed to stop all the Tammies, he busted back into the bakery and forced his way through the glass floor and into the level that had the cows and the doomsday device. If Ray doesn't do this right, that thing could go off and it could be the end of the world.

"Here we go." Ray said as he bravely tried to stop the machine. How did he do it? All he really did was just flip a switch and shut the whole thing down. "I can't believe something so destructive could be stopped by a simple off switch." This has got to be their weirdest mission yet. As for the flying ships, the rest of the team were at it all day with them, but managed to shut them down as well.

...

The Airship

"We're back, Jellal!" Wendy called as she and the others came back with Sting and Jellal waiting for them.

"What a day. I'm gonna raid the fridge." Gajeel said.

"You are not going to believe what happened." Laxus claimed.

"Neither will you." Jellal said as he pointed to Sting like Sting had something to say.

"Sting? What's going on?" Natsu said.

"Get this." Sting said as he started to explain. "It turns out Sweetie Sweets was actually a façade run by a greedy alien piece of ice cream. He was really trying to get some of our planet's money. He was kidnapping cows because he used milk to help make his army as well as the sweets they were serving. It was also a distraction so that no one would know about his device that would destroy our planet. So, I kidnapped the leader for answers. I managed to destroy his army and shut the machine down to save the world. It's also thanks to my new motorcycle!" Sting claimed as he loved the thing, but then it hysterically fell apart after what Sting did with it. "My new ride! NNNNNOOOOOO!"

"So... What happened to the alien leader you talked about?" Natsu questioned as the rest of them still didn't get it.

"He's just in the freezer." Sting said as he was upset about his new ride destroyed, but there was another problem.

"Mm. That was a sweet piece of vanilla." Gajeel said as he looked liked he just finished off some ice cream. That meant that he actually ate the alien leader. The others couldn't believe what he just did as they were awestruck and stared at him. "What?"
