Natsu stood over three dead men with burn marks all over their bodies, they were mutilared with innards covering them and blood everywhere as well as flames. Natsu, he had killed these men in a rage when he saw his father dead. Igneel was killed when 20 guilds of mages came to their cave and killed him in the middle of the night. The guilds caught them by surprise and stabbed Igneel in the back with a giant claymore. But they suffered by burning, igneel laid waste to them all. But he soon succumbed to his wound and died, natsu stood and watched as his father had died in front of him. Know he was here, in the middle of a burning village with bodies everywhere. His eyes were covered in shadow and his arms were lit in red flames that had a black silhouette of clawed human hands.
"So, Igneel has failed" A voice said from behind them.
Natsu turned with a growl and looked upon a young man in a black and gold get up holding a book in his right hand.
"It's a shame, but maybe Tataros will be better suited" The man said as he took a step forwards but that triggered Natsu to jump forward and launch straight at him with anger.
Natsu's head on charge was met with a palm that stopped him. He clawed with his flame lit arms at the stranger but the stranger seemed unfazed.
"Now now little brother, no need for that" He said as he looked down at they angry eyes of Natsu.
"You weren't supposed to unlock your demonic heritage until later but it can't be helped. But for now sleep" He said as he raised his index finger and tapped Natsu's forehead and natsu was overcome with a purple aura and passed out his flames disappearing and the shadow over his eyes no longer there.
The stranger picked him up and walked away from the scene as the flames roared from the houses.
/Hours later\
The stranger walked up to his laboratory as he placed Natsu in a tank attached to different tubes and wires with green liquid in the tank to the brim. Natsu was still asleep as the stranger smiled at the young man, he soon walked up to a computer like machine and tapped the screen causing it to fly open with a green holographic screen. He looked over three bars that were labeled Human, Demon and Dragon. He soon rubbed them up and down so they were all at 50% and watched the tubes glow and as with a purple energy that flowed in and out of Natsu.
He soon swiped to a different screen that had a list of magic and soon scrolled down and let a keyboard appear and typed out some knew commands and magical skills. He looked at the main compliance "Kill Zeref" He looked at it and sighed before deleting it and rewriting it.
"Become King" He said and soon rubbed the bar beisde it down from 100% to 15% and then wrote a whole nother page of goals and emotions and ended with the the command "Kill Zeref" and let the bar stay at 1%.
He soon did a large swiped that made the screen dissapear and he looked up at Natsu and smiled at him.
"Natsu, you were meant for greatness and you will achieve it. But you will have to stay here with your comrades. You guys will not wake for another 420 years. You will know what to do, and you will lead them to greatness. But you will not see me for some time, so here and know let me tell you. I love you little brother" the stranger smiled and walked out the door and closed it and walked away towards an exit and walked out of a large castle that stood above the water.
He stepped in a boat and paddled his way to shore and soon looked over the castle before pressing a button and watching it sink into the ground. He watched until the helm was not seen and turned away walking towards the mountain ranges.
/417 years later\
A 16 year old Lucy Heartfilia was traveling along the coast of the port city of Hargeon at night, the moon was shining down on her as her feet made a crunchy noise as she walked along the sand in her sandals. Her brown eyes watching the waves come up and down the sand.
It's been a couple months now, since she left her father's mansion and waves traveling to become a mage. But she had ran out of money and was staying in town for a while now. She calculated she would be out within a year if she kept the job she had working at a local diner. As much as she hated it, she needed to do this in order to fulfill her dreams.
She sighed stopping herself as she turned to look over the ocean with her brown eyes. Her eyes held a long for adventure and a need for power and skill. She was dreaming of her greatness as she imagined her life in the future next to a strong male mage and her being stronger and a S-class mage.
"Oh that would be something" She smiled looking up at the sky smiling at her own dream.
She soon felt a magical power rise from beneath the ocean. She felt like she was going to die with amount that was coming from it. The force was so dark but at the same time up lifting to herself. She fell to her knees as with her palm on the ground as she held her heart and her breathing quickened. She soon felt it disappear and she was able to stand, they encounter was enough to peak her curiosity though as she pulled out aquariouses key and walked towards the water.
"Open Gate of the water bearer: AQUARIUS" She called out and a mermaid woman with a blue tail and long blue hair with a vase in both hands.
"What is it now brat!" She screamed as Lucy who whimpered in fear from the powerful water user.
"It something in the Ocean!" Lucy shrieked.
"What are you talking about?!" Aquarius questioned.
"I felt it a moment ago, it was a powerful dark magic" Lucy answered as she still had a fearful look.
Aquarius looked at her confused before sighing and turning towards the the vast ocean and focused and tried to pick up any enomally before she soon felt what Lucy felt and her eyes grew wide in shock as she remembered the power from 400 years ago.
"Alright brat, Come on!" She said.
"What?" Lucy looked at her confused.
"Whatever's under their warrants a look at. It's something big so I need you to investigate with Taurus as I report to the king" She said before Lucy nodded and rushed into the water and grabbed the mermaid's hand and they dove into the water.
Lucy was soon given a bubble from her summoning as they dove deeper into the deep, but what they found next would shock them both. A giant castle at least ten times the one in Crocus was seen flashing as if a hologram. They looked at each other before nodding and rushed down to the castle's entrance and swam inside.
They swam up a staircase soon enough and resurfaced into a grand hall with red carpets and golden exterior. It was almost like a luxury hotel.
"Alright brat, send me back and I'll report in" Lucy nodded before she let the mermaid disappeared in a cloud before she turned to the staircase. Her eyes became determined from fear. She walked up the stair and to the left.
/Meanwhile in the Celestial world\
"Are you sure?" The celestial king asked.
"Yes sir" Aquarius said as she stood before him.
"This is troubling, alright. When she's done her investigation with Tauros we'll talk about what she find" They nodded and were about to walk away until they saw the bull spirit walking towards them.
"TAUROS!" The king yelled in shock.
"Moo!" Tauros covered himself in fear of his king.
"Why aren't you with Lucy!?" Aquarios yelled.
"I haven't got any call today?" He answered her in fear.
"Huh?" The mermaid said.
"Are you sure?" The king asked.
Tauros nodded before he saw the two give each other a worried look and then turn back to him.
"Summon yourself to her!" The king ordered.
"Is Lucy in trouble?" He asked.
"Just fucking do it!" Aquarius yelled causing him to jump in fear and try only to stay where he is.
"I can't" He admitted.
It went silent with a Nikora made small noises as it walked past them.
"WHAT!" They screamed as Taurus just shrunk in fear.
"Try again!" The king ordered.
He tried again only for him to stay put. The king and the mermaid shared a fearful glance as they both became extremely nervous.
"Lucy is probably a nervous wreck right now" The king sighed.
/Meanwhile with Lucy\
"Man this place is huge" She smiled as she walked down the hall.
Lucy kept going until she saw a small opening in the hallway room. Her curiosity overtook her as she walked towards it and opened it revealing a room with a whole bunch of control systems and screens of different green tanks. She walked up to the screens and viewed them with different bodies in them floating in the tanks. She saw some had different feature then most, and some looked like normal humans while the others look like monsters.
She looked at the control systems and saw giant red switches under each screen and a different set of controls. She looked at each before shrugging and walking away looking around the room.
She soon came across a ruby in a glass showcase, she smiled as she saw the beauty of the gem and she soon greedily smiled.
"This will definitely fetch me a pretty penny in the market" She smirked as she giggled rubbing her hands together.
She lifted the case and went to grab the ruby, she hesitating but went ahead and picked it up only for a great pain take over her body.
She screamed as a burning pain took over her body and the ruby soon became a red liquid and entered her body through her skin as she screamed in terror. Her body screamed in pain as the the liquid traveled up and down her body. She soon looked up to see a small label on the stand.
Philosopher's stone, Lucy's eyes widened before she felt the pain surge again as a glowing light appeared in her chest. She felt her wing bones soon pop out of her skin and sprout two large black feathered wings and her eyes turned a blood red and her blonde hair gained jet black highlights. She fell the the ground as she felt a grand headache take over her head.
"What's going on!" She screamed through the pain as she reached for her key's only for a small red hand appear from her hip and take the keychain off her belt and disappear right in front of her eyes. Her eyes grew wide with terror and the pain came back as her eyes became more reptile like then human then a mix of the two.
She was screaming for a while as the pain remained before it disappeared and Lucy became still. Her eyes were closed before they opened again to show two red eyes with a calm expression was seen and she smirked as she felt the power flow through her veins.
"This will be fun"
She stood up and look around and at her new wings and features. "The stone seemed to give me a great amount of power, and knowledge as well. Specifically on this castle and the demons in those tanks" She looked over at the screens. She soon laid eyes on the one with pink hair and smiled seductively.
She walked up to the switches and flip one as she smirked as she kept flipping them and stopped at the last one before she looked up and smiled doing it again.
/With Natsu\
The tank Natsu was in soon shattered as her fell out onto the stone floor. He stood up and looked up at the walls and the broken tank before smirking and opening his eyes showing their emerald glory.
