Dancing Animals 3

With Naruto

Naruto started laughing uncontrollably. It took him a few minutes to get under control and this drew Sirius's interest as his father only laughs like this when his prank plays perfectly.

"Who did you prank?" He asked with a knowing smirk.

"Leo," Naruto replied with a smirk.

"Really? Why?"

"He is fooling around with girls, so I chose to spice things up. Hehe,"

"What did you do? Let me guess,"

"Stole some girls' clothes and sent the blame his way?" Naruto denied.

"Trip him and send him towards Mira?" Naruto denied it again.

"Steal old man's or Cana's booze bottles and hide them near him?"

"No,"

"Did you send him with some girl on any wild adventure?" Sirius asked as he analysed Naruto's statement.

"Close. Sent him on a job with Erza." Naruto smirked victoriously.

"Poor Leo. I am not aware of this and don't involve me in this," Sirius said as he doesn't want to be pranked by Loke, though he knew the celestial spirit will fail. Naruto nodded.

"Did you bring the S-class job?"

"Yup. Do you want some spoilers?" Naruto asked, showing a closed job request to Sirius.

"Tempting, but no. I don't want any part of it. I'll know with others. Is it far?" Sirius asked.

"Hmm, well halfway through the last job I did," Naruto said and Sirius nodded, not asking any questions as he returned to his drawings.

He started making all the positions he can fight and instead of just making them in his mind, he started drawing them like a visual representation of his fighting style and attacks.

This would allow him to imagine how he can fight better against different opponents and the ways to escape and so on.

"Maybe Kagura would be useful to us," Naruto murmured, though Sirius heard, he didn't press what his father meant by that and continued his analysis.

While Naruto and Sirius were doing this, Happy and Natsu were roaming around the town with the money they got from their last job.

They were in search of food as they were hungry and though Happy can ask some fishies from Naruto, he wanted to find some on his own and Natsu tagged along.

"Hey Natsu, how did you feel when Naruto did that whoosh thing?" Happy asked.

"Whoosh-what?"

"That thing, we are on the island one second and the next we are here," Happy tried to explain. As they were unconscious when Naruto teleported them for the first time in the cave, Happy only remembered the second one.

"Uh, no buddy. I didn't feel anything wrong," Natsu said, remembering how they were at one place at one point and the next, they were here again.

"Does that mean you only feel that stomach problem on vehicles and not when someone carries or moves like Naruto?" Happy asked as he turned towards Natsu.

"Looks like it. We should try it again to find out," Natsu said with a toothy smile.

"So you can enjoy the train raid as well!" Happy cheered.

"Yup,"

*Growl*

"Ah, I think we should eat first, Happy,"

"Yes," they both agreed and moved to a small shop to eat.

With Kagura

Kagura is rethinking why she agreed to go on with the blonde and his group. It's not like she needs them, she can defend herself well.

Though their help fighting against Marsh is appreciated, it doesn't mean that the blonde can order her around like that.

She thought of silently slipping away, but decided not to as something in her told that won't end well. She knew and saw how powerful Naruto is.

She is not going to mess with him even with Archenemy. If this S-class gives her that much power, then she will become S-class and find her brother and take her revenge.

'I'm coming, Simon. Please stay safe till then,' she thought and continued on some shadow fighting in her mind. She is going to become strong.

Next Morning

As the day passed, Naruto and his group prepared for the job ahead and completed their breakfast and assembled in the inn lobby to start their journey.

"So where are we going?" Gray asked.

"We are going to an S-class job. The job is as follows," said Naruto, pulling the request flyer out.

'Animal Mayhem' read the title.

'In the dancing country of Minstrel, a group of animals started creating mayhem with their dance and magic. We request mages' immediate assistance.

Requirements: At least mages using varieties of magic are needed as the animals are magical creatures like Wyverns with some Lizardman and some other small creatures.

Location: Eastern Minstrel near Desierto border.

Reward: 5 million Jewels.

Status: Taken by Fairy Tail mages.'

"How was it?" Naruto asked as he saw them read.

"Minstrel is far, man. How are we going to get there?" Gray asked.

"Is Desierto a country?" Natsu asked, rubbing his chin.

"Aye, sir," Happy chorused.

"Do you expect me to come there?" Kagura asked, her hand moving towards her sword.

"Chill, I'm not going to make you walk there. I have the nearest mark there. We are going to be there in a few minutes. Before that, I want you to know something. First about Wyverns. Do you know what a Wyvern is?" Naruto asked and everyone explained their interpretation and he nodded in satisfaction.

"Ok, that's good. Let me explain about the Lizardman. They are Humanoid creatures which are strong and since they can use magic now, you should be more careful," he said seriously and all of them, including Kagura, nodded.

"Ok, now take my hand," Naruto said and extended his right and left hands to others. Sirius sat on his shoulder while Happy sat on Natsu's.

Gray and Natsu caught his left hand while Kagura reluctantly took his right hand and just like that, they vanished from the lobby.
