A week later, Wendy goes to the request board to look for a job and a companion, as of Mira's suggestion. While Levy and Lucy try to figure out whether Wendy will join Team Natsu or Team Shadow Gear when Snow approaches Natsu

"Natsu!" Snow called out Natsu and Elfman turn their gaze on him

"What is it?" Natsu asked

"Snow...Now that i think about it, i haven't seen you around the guild for a few days" Elfman said

"I heard this crazy story, Natsu" Snow responded

"What?" Natsu said

Snow takes a step closer "Somebody outside the city says she's seen a dragon" Natsu widens his eyes. Wendy and Gajeel listen closely

"That's some incredible info, Natsu" Happy said

"Are you sure it isn't Acnologia?" Genie added

"I don't know the details, But i know that it isn't Acnologia, for sure. He doesn't like a place where there is a lot of people and normally keeps to himself" Snow responded

"Did you meet the person who saw the dragon?" Natsu asked

"No." Snow replied "I just heard the rumors going around town. Someone named 'Daphne' talks like she knows everything about dragons It's not just that she's seen one it sounds like she actually met one recently"

"Really?" Natsu glances over his shoulder "You're telling the truth, right?"

Snow turns to look at him "Why would I lie about something like this? It might pay to investigate"

"Where is she?" Natsu asked

"In the wilderness to the west, at an Inn called 'Rise'." Snow answered

"All right! Let's go Happy!" Natsu quickly leaves the bar

"Aye, sir!" Happy jumps off the bar table

"I'll go too! That dragon might be Grandeeney!" Wendy said

"I will go as well, I'm quite curious myself" Genie added following them

"Then let's check it out!" Natsu said "Are you coming Gajeel?" Natsu turns to look at Gajeel

"No way" Gajeel replied "It's obviously a sham"

"How can you know that?" Natsu asked

"And how many times have you said that and gotten tricked?" Gajeel spat back "Stories about dragons are for luring people! You're being tricked! Try using your brain sometime"

"You want to see yours too, right? You want to see Metalicana!" Natsu asked

"And then what?" Gajeel added "He just disappeared without sayin' nothing. I don't care one bit!"

"Gajeel-san..." Wendy muttered

"Well, He's like that, but on the inside he really misses him" Lucy whispers to Levy

"I think so, too" Levy whispered back, agreeing with Lucy

Natsu turns to Wendy "Let's go, Wendy"

"Right!" Wendy agreed "I really hope its Grandeeney, Carla!"

"You shouldn't get your hopes up, child" Carla commented

"Thanks for the info!" Natsu said

"It's my pleasure" Snow responded Natsu, Happy, Wendy, Carla, and Genie run to the location of the Inn where the person who saw the dragon is Snow walks out of the guild as he watches them run away
