Hi, Recluse with a new story here. This time I'm going to try to make a longer story, with you know... multiple chapters. The pairing will be Natza, of course and... I wil alter Lucy a bit. She really needs a personality change. Sorry that this chapter is kinda short, but it is just an introduction. I promise the next chapter will be longer.

P.S. I plan on making Natsu semi-neko... and Erza, too. Why? I like cats.

The sun peeked up over the forest tree-tops, dappling the lush ground below with golden specks of light. The bright light found its way over to the closed eyelids of a sleeping boy wearing a white scaly scarf, who was lying the soft grass at the edge of a clearing. The pink-haired boy, who was now fidgeting in his sleep, was named Natsu Dragneel, the now recently orphaned son of Igneel the Fire Dragon. It was only a week since Igneel had left Natsu, leaving the boy alone and heartbroken. During the time period of the week, Natsu had slowly regained his usual cheery temperament and is now looking forward to devoting his time into finding his lost father.

"Nrgh…" Natsu groaned in his sleep, tossing and turning on the ground, slightly burning the ground around him due to his intense body heat. He soon opened his eyes and blinked rapidly, trying to adjust to the sun's blinding rays. He frowned and multiple tickmarks appeared on his forehead.

"Damn sun!" He shouted profanities that he was too young to know. Igneel was the obviously the best father figure to the boy. "One day, I'm gonna eat you!" Natsu shook his fist and glared at the giant glowing sphere of burning gas, before diverting his gaze because his eyes started to hurt.

Grumbling, Natsu patted himself down, brushing dust and debris off of his tattered clothes. The only thing that remained oddly pristine was his prized scarf, which was Igneel's parting gift to his son. Suddenly, Natsu's stomach grumbled loudly, demanding something be put in it's stomach. Natsu patted it apologetically, as the last time he ate something was three days ago when he managed to snag a squirrel that was bothering him and roasted it alive. That annoying squirrel got what was coming to him. Natsu sighed and looked around the clearing to see what there was to eat.

His eyes caught a berry bush laden with dark purple fruit. The boy practically leapt over the entire fifty feet of the clearing and landed lightly in front of the bush. Natsu licked his lips in anticipation of devouring the delicious looking fruit, unaware if it was even safe to eat or not. He quickly grabbed a large bunch in his tiny fist and crammed them right down his throat. He then spat it right back out. The berries were sweet. OUTRAGEOUSLY SWEET. It felt like Natsu just ate concentrated sugar coated in sugar dunked in molasses and baked into a hardened crystalline structure and then dumped in more sugar.

"Blech!" Natsu gagged, spitting purple berry juice out of his mouth. "Sweet! Too sweet!" Natsu's mouth was coated in sugary berry juice which left an intense after-taste in his mouth. "Damn berries. Guess I can't eat those." Natsu sighed, disappointed. Unbeknownst to him, a pink fluffy cat tail poofed out of the back of his pants and started waving around freely.

Natsu, at this time, once again glared at the sun again. "I really wish I can eat you right now!" Natsu growled in annoyance. Then he suddenly came to a realization! He could eat the sun! Well, no he couldn't, but Natsu was an absolute idiot and didn't think rationally. All he knew was that he now had a large multiple course buffet just floating in the sky for him.

"Ah, I'm so hungry, that I bet I can eat YOU!" Natsu screamed drooling and pointed at the sun. A couple of squirrels were staring at him from the side of the clearing, thinking how stupid the pink-haired dragonslayer was. Natsu took a horse-stance and prepared himself, planting his feet solidly into the ground. He waited a few seconds, gathering his focus and then focused on drawing the sun's flames to him. Natsu began sucking in massive amounts of air, hoping, reaching for the meal that await his outstretched reach.

…

…

…

A couple of minutes passed, with Natsu stupidly gasping like a fish out of water. After a while longer, which shouldn't have taken time in the first place, Natsu stopped trying to suck the sun into his stomach. "Damn you sun! You're a stupid prick for not letting me eat you!" The pink-haired boy now even more enraged.

"Ho! Don't insult the sun!" A deep voice stated from behind him.

Natsu twirled around in surprise and got into a fighting stance to confront the intruder. Instead, Natsu was quickly blasted off of his feet at the sheer magical power emanating from the being that stood before him. The entity beared a resemblance to a Roman Centurion, with a steel helm and armor that seemed to melded of crimson gold. His muscles, chiseled bronze, were covered in metal armor plates. But what was really peculiar about this figure was his more celestial aspects of being.

He had no solid face and only golden flames surged violently inside of his helm, with indistinct facial features such as pupilless eyes erupting with heavenly light. A crimson cape of flames adorned the godly creature's back, radiating an aura of destruction and power and wisps of golden energy emanated from his back. Buckled to his waist was an oversized bronze *spatha , glinting devilish red basking in the hellish flames of the fiery cape. All in all, Natsu was scared shitless.

"Er… Hi?" Natsu grinned nervously, "Want some berries?" He held out a couple of the over-sweet purple berries he picked up from the ground.

"How dare you try to trick me!" The divine apparition thundered, "You and I know perfectly well that those berries-" He then noticed the cat tail spouting from Natsu's tattered pants, waving freely in the air, "You… ate them?"

"Yeah!" Natsu smiled sheepishly, "They were too sweet."

The god-like figure then facepalmed ungodly-like, and sighed, "Boy, you do know that those berries are called Nekona Fruit, and if ingested you will eventually turn into a cat."

Natsu's face turned comically pale as he started sweating bullets.

"Oh god! I didn't know that! Why'd you make me eat 'em?"

"I didn't make yo-"

"You better fix this, or else!" Natsu growled, igniting his hand.

"Fool! Even if you are a mage, you will not win a conflict with me! Fire does not-"

"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" The Roman guy was cut off as Natsu charged forward, preparing the sock him in the face. As the fist made contact with the head of the divine apparition, there was an abrupt searing light and Natsu was blown into the ground at break-neck speed.

As the dust cleared, the flaming golden man was standing in the same place, crossing his arms, while Natsu was struggling to get his head out of a crater. When his head popped out, pink floofy cat ears adorned his head and his normal ones have disappeared.

"Gragh!" Natsu rubbed his head furiously to lessen the pain pounding in his thick cranium. "You're strong!"

"Boy, I am a God!" the god stated (duh), "Not many can match my magical and physical prowess."

"Hhmph!" Natsu sniffed, "I bet Igneel can beat you!"

"Igneel? The Fire Dragon King?!" By the sound of his voice, the god seemed incredulous, "Pfft, Hahahahaha! What relation do you have with that overgrown lizard?"

Natsu developed multiple tick-marks on his head as he shouted, "First, only I get to call him a lizard, and second, he's my dad!"

"Oh, and I suppose that makes you the Fire Dragonslayer, right?"

"Yep! You better believe it!"

"I most certainly do… not!" The god scoffed, "The Fire Dragonslayer would not be such of an idiot to attack me! That magic is practically useless against me!"

"Oh yeah? What makes you so high and mighty, flamebrain!?"

"Actually, you are the flamebrain here. And as for my power, I am the almighty Sun God, Helios! I eat fire dragons for breakfast!"

"Really? Then why aren't you fat?" Natsu questioned, "Igneels pretty big."

Somewhere in the distance…

"ARE YOU IMPLYING THAT I AM FAT, BRAT!?" Igneel roared indignantly,

Back with Helios and Natsu…

"I, uh, workout a lot! Yes, that's it! Lot's of cardio, weights, ah, um…" Helios backed up, trying to cover up his lie, as he never met a dragon in person… Wait a minute! Why was he acting like he actually ate a dragon?! "It's a figure of speech, boy!"

Natsu tilted his head, confused at what a figure of speech was, "Bah, whatever you say Hellen, or whatever you're called."

"It's Helios, fool!"

"Whatever, nya." Natsu then widened his eyes, "Wait, did I just say what I think I said?"

"The fruit is taking effect," The god stated impassively, "Soon, you will be a cat."

"Argh! Stupid fruit!" Natsu hissed, "I can't even eat it! And I'm so hungry…"

Natsu slowly turned his head to face Helios with a predatory gaze.

"You said… you are the Sun God?"

"I am." The god said stoically.

"Then, are you like… part sun?"

"The sun, in fact, is the embodiment of my power. It represents my sheer force of magical energy."

Natsu was drooling in hunger.

Helios stared at the desperate dragonslayer for a moment before sighing, "If you wanted a meal, you could have just asked for one."

The god raised his gauntleted hand and it burst into a bright white flame. "Here. The last meal of a human being before turning into a feral beast."

Natsu sucked it in greedily, the white flames swirling endlessly into his gullet.

"Alright, that's enough." Helios stated, but Natsu kept on eating. And eating. And eating.

'By my own name, this boy sure can eat a lot. I actually feel a tiny bit drained.' Helios thought inwardly before forcefully cutting the flow of sun-fire from his hand. Natsu patted his stomach appreciatively and burped.

"Thanks for the meal!"

Then another blinding flash of light once again enveloped the clearing, this time its source from Natsu.

When the light died down, Natsu was changed. Instead of simple pink hair and onyx eyes, both facial features now sported a golden highlight, similar to those of Helios's flames. Natsu also seemed to have had a small shift in body size, as his frame slightly altered to match those of Helios slightly more solid and tall one.

"Wow! I feel all fired up!" Natsu exclaimed, igniting his hands due to excess magical power. His flames had changed to, a mix between a gold and orange flame which glittered with a hidden energy. At this, Helios raised his eyebrow.

"It seems that you have inherited my Godly capabilities when you have eaten my flames." Helios observed.

"Oh. That's cool, I guess. It won't matter, cause I'm turning into a cat." Natsu cried anime-tears.

"No, it seems my magical essence has halted the transformation. Though it seems that you will continue to keep the ears and tail."

"Yeah! That's more like it!" Natsu cheered, "Well, thank you Henry-"

"It's Helios!"

"-for the meal and your help! I'll be on my way now!"

"Not so fast!" Helios grabbed a hold of Natsu's shoulders, stopping the boy from moving. "You have inherited my God Solar Flare, and I cannot allow you to run around with them untamed!"

"Uh, what?" Natsu sweatdropped.

"Boy, get ready for a crash-course in Solar Flare Magic, because I am you're new teacher!"

"NOOO!" Natsu wailed, "I HATE LEARNING!"
