July 26th NaLu Day special prompt: Summer Fun in the Sun!
Magnolia is in the middle of a heatwave, so how does Fairy Tail cope? Return to the Ryuzetsu Land that has been rebuilt! Bigger, better, with even more rides this time - not only waterpark rides, but regular attractions too!
Fairy Tail is excited to return, even if to cause more chaos, but they eventually find it safer to split into groups for exploring. Most people choose to go with their teams - Shadow Gear resting in the lazy river, Thunder Tribe racing to find the scariest rollercoaster, and... Team Natsu, lost in a mirror maze.
Honestly, Lucy has no idea how they ended up here, watching the others discussing how to find the exit.
"Lucy, Lucy, look!" Happy laughs, making funny faces in the mirror, watching them get reflected multiple times.
"Hmm, I know the way!" Erza shouts, walking directly into a mirror. Happy snorts, trying to hide his laughter.
"Wait, wait, I know!" Natsu grins, immediately running into- Gray.
"Watch where you're going!"
"Eh?! I thought you were a mirror!"
"Huh?!" The two glare at eachother, basically growling. Lucy sighs, and points at a path before a fight can break out. She can't deny how much fun she's having, though - spending time here with everyone... she's happy.
"Come, come." She smiles, waving the others along to follow her out of the maze and back into the bright sun. Finally free, the group rests, not feeling so trapped now.
"Eh, Natsu-san? Everyone?" Wendy's voice calls, hurrying toward the group. "Hello!" She stops in front of the group, dragging along Juvia, and- Gray leans to the side, staring at Lyon lingering behind the group.
"Guess I'll join you two." Gray sighs, going off to explore with Juvia and Lyon.
Erza nods, grabbing Wendy's shoulder. "Sweets. I saw a cute shop back there." And, the two also leave, leaving behind...
"Eh?" Lucy looks around, shocked. "How is it just us?!" She points at Natsu, confused, but he only laughs.
"Come on, Lucy!" He grabs her wrist with a wild grin, dragging her away to find more games or mazes to go through. Of course, they stop at a few food stalls on the way, with Natsu trying every little snack or meal - Lucy has no chance to grieve her wallet, enptying little by little.
.
"Hello?" Happy yells, walking into another mirror. "Where'd everybody go...?"
.
With the sun still blazing, other mages have tired quickly and found places to rest, or somewhere with cooler air. Except Lucy, still being dragged around by Natsu, pointing out all types of games. They'd already won small stuffed animals from some, but he was still refusing to stop - Lucy sighs, realizing the heat probably doesn't even bother him.
"Natsu, hey. Let's go on that." She weakly points, up to the ferris wheel, but Natsu just stares. Thinks. Stares more.
"Hmmmmnggh, okay!" He frowns, hard, but still leads the way.
He... agreed? Lucy blinks, surprised, having been sure he'd deny due to his motion sickness, but- they sit, side-by-side, Natsu clutching his stomach. He groans, leaning against her, and her face flushes red.
Why would he go when it'd make him sick? Maybe... no no no, no way! Lucy laughs, looking away to hide her flushed face.
"Hey, Lucy, I..." Natsu groans, sitting up. Maybe this was... could it be?
"Y-Yeah?" She turns toward him, nervous.
"I'm gonna throw up-" He leans over her, sticking his head out of the window. Stupid. She'd been stupid!
