"I said no, natsu. I won't take you with me for this mission!" Erza exclaimed angry, pushing Natsu's head away.
"Erza, come on, don't be that way! I can help!" Natsu responded, hugging tightly erza's leg
"I said... ¡NO!" Erza yelled, grabbing Natsu's hair and throwing him towards gray "sigh... patience and discretion is required in this mission. ¡Not your reckless imprudence!"
Last night, after a week of begging, erza finally convinced the master makarov to let her do a higher difficult mission, but only with the condition that she must bring a another wizard with her.
This morning, erza arrived to the guild announcing that she was looking for a teammate to do the mission, but unfortunately everyone was unwilling to do it, except for natsu.
Erza didn't have anything against natsu, but she knew perfectly well his destructive tendencies in every mission he does, she want to leave a good impression in her master eyes and natsu was the last person she needs now.
"The mission is about recover all the stolen belongings of the villagers from the dark hunters guild, a small dark guild." Erza explained
She was trying to get the attention of any other wizards, but no one dare to looked at her, they were too scare of her to actually think on doing a mission with her.
"Erza, please! We can just enter and punch those dark wizards right in the face and then recover the belongings!" Natsu said again, throwing himself to erza's leg once again.
"That way of think is exactly why I'm not bringing you with me!" Erza exclaimed shaking her leg, trying to free it from Natsu.
"No, please take me with you, I want to fight dark wizards too!" Natsu begged, hugging erza's leg harder then biting her thigh to make sure Erza wouldn't be able to leave without him.
"Ahhh, natsu, my thigh!" Erza yelled in pain before lifting her fist and hitting natsu's head so hard that buried him on the wooden floor of the guild.
Wakaba, next of Macao, also didn't look at erza at all, remembering when erza found out that he was marry and still flirting with the Guild's maids. She beat him so hard that now every time erza is in the guildhall he didn't even look at the maid anymore.
In the corner of the guild, laxus was sitting in a chair with his feet over the table, listen to his music. He wasn't interested at all to help erza, actually, he was thinking on doing a mission on his own.
The minutes passed and with them erza's temper rise, right now she was about to grab a random guildmate and force it to do the mission with her.
Makarov watched all this from the second floor of the guild, next to him was Gildarts laughing.
"Erza is about to explode" Gildarts laughed watching erza standing in front of the entrance of the guild.
"Erza have such a short and strong temper" makarov pointed
Right before erza explode in rage and grab a guildmate, the doors of the guild behind her were open and Finn stepped inside eating from a bag with chocolates.
Today was his free day. After a long time of training and doing missions without rest for almost a month, he decided to reward himself with a full day of rest.
"Watch out, brat. I can feel a tension in this place right now " kurama warned
Erza watched finn walking towards her and her eyes shined, thinking that finn was offering to do the mission with her.
Finn entered the guild, watching natsu unconscious and buried in the floor before ignoring him and keep walking to the tables of the guild hall, passing next to erza.
"Good decision, Finn!" Erza exclaimed, pulling finn from his shirt "let's prepare everything for our departure in 15 minutes!"
"Wait what?" Finn asked, but erza ignored him
"Master, we are leaving, we will come back in a few days!" Erza said aloud, waving her goodbyes to makarov.
"Take care, kids, and come back as soon as possible. I know you two will handle the mission pretty well" Makarov responded, watching erza pulling finn out of the guild
"¡Mission! But today is my free day!" Finn exclaimed, being pulled
"What a nonsese! You said it yourself before, Great wizards don't rest!" Erza responded with a huge smile.
"Wait, at least let me finish my chocolates!" Finn begged, showing her his chocolates
"No time for that!" Erza responded, grabbing the chocolates and throwing them away. "People need our help, we can't let them down for a chocolates"
<¡Noooo!> finn thought, watching his chocolates on the floor as he is pulled outside of the guild.

2 hours later
"So where are we going?" Finn asked.
He was carrying his backpack with his clothes and some food to eat in the travel.
They left magnolia from the west side and walk over 2 hours in the same direction. At this point there was nothing but green lands and a few mountains that could be seen at the distance.
No towns, no villages, or even animals could be seen around them.
"We are heading towards Rockland village, a village located right in the entrance of the mountains, between capital Crocus and Magnolia town" erza explained
Erza was pulling a small cart with a few suitcases on it. It wasn't as much like in the anime, but finn could tell that it won't happen a lot of time before erza reach that point.
"Then, why we didn't take the train to crocus and get down before arrive?" Finn asked.
"Spending time between colleagues is one of our duties finn, we have to know each other very well to work effectively together!" Erza exclaimed firmly
