Mates

Disclaimer: Am I Hiro Mashima? No. Am I an amazing person that created my current obsession? No I already answered that. I don't own Fairy Tail *cries*

Chapter 1

Natsu POV

My name is Natsu Dragneel and I am a dragon slayer. I have found my mate. You may not know what I am talking about, so let me explain. Every dragon slayer has a 'mate' this is someone who they were destined to protect and cherish from the day we were born. Wait, I'm not good at explaining this stuff, my dad Igneel might be able to explain it better

Flashback

"Pyro!" Come here now!" An enormous red dragon yelled to a small boy with onyx eyes and pink hair.

"What is is Igneel, I'm sleeping" the small boy questioned with a frown.

"It's your birthday son,"

"Well duh, that's why I'm sleeping in," younger Natsu grumbled in annoyance, in response to that, Igneel picked up his half asleep son with his claw and placed him on his back. Igneel then flew up into the air and Natsu screamed with excitement as Igneel had not done this in years.

"Son there is something special about your 10th birthday,"

"What is it Igneel?" Natsu was bouncing up and down in anticipation,

"what am I going to get, is it more training, or, or…"

"You are going to information," Igneel interrupted.

"Aww, dad that's boring!" The young boy whined impatiently

"Now listen carefully to me boy, after a male dragon, or dragon slayer in your case, turns 10, and you meet a certain girl, you will feel a sort of, tug towards her, she is your mate. You must protect her from harm and if she accepts you as her mate then you will know what to do, but be warned, you will be linked with a sensory link (what Meredy uses against Juvia in the battle with Grimwoire Heart) and this will mean that if one of you dies, the other will as well." Igneel explained to the very confused boy that was sitting on his back.

"Well that doesn't make any sense" Natsu looked at his foster father with a confused face.

"You will understand someday but never forget what I have said Natsu"

End flashback

Yeah, he's much better at explaining stuff than me. Well anyway now you know what a mate is, let me tell you about mine, she is beautiful, blonde and has the most gorgeous eyes that you could get lost for hours in. The only problem…she doesn't feel the same.

What should it be? Nalu or Nali?! If I get 5 reviews I will continue!
