Hello,

A: Must I pay now?
B: No, you needn't. / No, you musn't.

A: Need I pay now?
B: Yes, you must. / Yes, you need.

They are my sentences. I would like to ask whether or not all the answers are possible, depending on the context.

Thanks.
 
None of the answers are natural.
 
Would you mind telling us what answers are natural?
