  The next day, everyone cheered as they heard the new game, 'Chariot'.

"This is a race that competitors must run along these connected war chariots and reach the goal without falling." Chapati explained.

"Still, this isn't any normal race." Yajima said while the 2nd guest, Jason, yelled cool 3 times from his excitement.

"The war chariots will be constantly moving, so even a momentary lapse in concentration could lead to a crucial mistake. The course runs through the famous old neighborhood of Crocus! So, which team will be the first to cross the finish line at Doms Frau Stadium?! The people already in the Stadium will be able to catch the entire race on Lacrima-Vision!" However, for Fairy Tail and Magi, they deadpanned. Looking towards Yajima, sweat dropping. "By the way, Yajima, could anyone have expected this  turn of events?"

"Hmm..."

"Why did Natsu enter this one?!" Gray's face twitched from annoyance.

"It's called 'Chariot'. You can tell from the name. Or you should..."

"He said he was competing, and wouldn't listen to reason." Erza said as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Far behind the leading group is Natsu of Fairy Tail A, looking incredibly groggy!" Sweat dropping, Chapati watched as Natsu was panting out air and slowly 'running'.

  With Team B, they were couldn't move.

"That idiot! Is he as stupid as Natsu?! Even I knew somethin' was up!" Sora yelled.

"Well, this is a bust..." Shaking his head, Laxus pinched his nose with two fingers.

"By this point, we'll never get in top 3..." Jellal said.

"Aww, c'mon! Gajeel will think of something!" Mira said, smiling.

They all looked at her, deadpanning. "Only you could look on the bright side..."

"And he isn't alone!" Chapati said. "Just steps ahead of him is Gajeel of Fairy Tail B and...Sting of Sabertooth, both also looking groggy!" Sweat dropping, he leaned into the microphone. "What could this mean, Yajima?"

"There must be something to cause all three of them pain at the same time."

As Chapati heard Jason yell cool, Chapati gave him a weird look. "Um...Jason, can you tone it down a bit?"

On the Chariots, Gajeel doubled over, sweat pouring down his face. "Wasn't it just Salamander...and Sora...who gets motion sickness...?"

"What's going on? Why is Gajeel...?" Lily asked.

"Don't go imitating Natsu and Sora!" Happy cried.

"It's even affecting the Saber guy..." Levy said.

Sweat dropping, Lector tried to make this situation cool for Sting. Crossing his arms over his chest, he closed his eyes. "This is  a problem. For Sting, who's the greatest wizard in the world, to have his one weakness revealed..."

"Fro thinks so too!"

"Now, let's look at the lead group...At the front is Raven Tail's Kurohebi! Right behind him is Ichiya from Blue Pegasus!" Que Ichiya's signature move. "Yuka from Lamia Scale, and Risley from Mermaid Heel!" 

Looking behind himself, Yuka said to Risley, "I'm surprised you can keep up, given your shape."

"Don't underestimate Chubby Power!"

"And slightly separated from them is the reservist from Quatro Cerberus, Baccus!"

Hiccuping, Bacchus had trouble keeping up. "I can't do it...This hangover from last night..."
