Yo guys, what's up? I decided to write this story that has been on my mind for a while now. I don't know if it will work, but I just want to try.
This may be wrong with the Dragons and all, but I just want to give you a good story to read. And some characters might be OOC. So, please think before posting comments, telling me how wrong I am with Dragons. Thank you.
Fairy Tail belongs to Hiro Mashima.
-:-
Dragons. Everybody thinks that Dragons are myths. Well, not everybody.
There are people what we call Dragon Slayers. It is said, that these people inherit the powers of a Dragon, so in time they can defend themselves from dangers. Many people say, that Dragon Slayers are raised by real Dragons. But mostly nobody believes that there are Dragons.
There are, or there was, nobody knows, many Dragons. Fire Dragons, Lightning Dragons, Sky Dragons, Sky Dragons, Metal Dragons and so on. But nobody actually believes these things. Except a few people that were raised by Dragons.
There is a guild that is famous with its three Dragon Slayers. They search for their Dragons all over the world.
Natsu Dragneel, the son of Igneel.
Gajeel Redfox, the son of Metalicana.
Wendy Marvell, the daughter of Grandeeney.
These 3 kids have never let their hope die. They still search their Fathers, or Mothers in Wendy's case.
This is where our story begins. A sad and angry Dragon is watching his child fight. He is sad because he can't be there for his child, angry at himself for leaving him.
He had to do it to protect his child, but he still feels guilty. He is the Fire Dragon, The Mighty Igneel.
But, he wasn't forever a Dragon. Before a very long time, he was a human. A human in the name of Namikaze Naruto. He had sacrificed himself for his friends, his village and his beloved ones. In fact, all Dragons were once humans.
Because of the Kyuubi No Kitsune that resided in him at that time, he transformed into a entirely new being, instead of dying. Demons couldn't die, after all. And the seal that his father had put on him, prevented the Demon from escaping even after death.
He hid himself from the world in the depths of the lava pools. He hid himself in the flames. Centuries later, he changed his name to Igneel. He had closed his heart. Until someone finally managed to open it again.
Natsu Dragneel had opened his heart once again. The Fire Dragon actually thought that the kid had a special power. A power that he had when he was a human. The power to warm hearts. He accepted the child, took him under his wing. Protected him, gave him food, taught him how to survive.
One day, he had received a message from the other Dragons for a meeting. They would leave their kids in a selected date. Igneel had declined immediately. Metalicana and Grandeeney had also declined, saying that their kids were the most precious thing they had. But they were outnumbered in this decision.
The other Dragons said that it was forbidden for them to live with humans. The Dragon Trio had scoffed at that.(Igneel, Metalicana and Grandeeney.)
"Why not? There is no rule book for us." Grandeeney had said at that time. They couldn't talk back. Still, it was clear that they were outnumbered.
So, they left their children. It was the extreme punishment for them. They also suffered, along with their children. They wouldn't stop looking for their Dragons. That hurt the Dragons even more.
That was until now. Igneel grunted and stood up. He glowed a bright yellow light, before it died down. In the place of the monstrous creature now stood a man around his mid twenties. Somewhere around 24 or 26. He was 6,2 feet tall, bright yellow hair, a handsome face, blue eyes with slits instead of pupils, a muscular structure, and 3 whisker-like scars on each cheek. His hair brushed his shoulders, on top it was spiky.(Imagine the Yondaime, with whisker-like marks and with slits in his eyes instead of pupils.)
"Damn it! My eyes are still the same." Naruto muttered to himself and thought of a way to hide his eyes that were a dead give-away that he was Igneel. Natsu would recognize him like that. He was sure that Natsu would remember his blue eyes with slits.
He was going to see his son, but he didn't want Natsu to discover him just now. He would reveal himself after some time, he couldn't keep it a secret forever. And he just couldn't bear Natsu being beside him and not recognizing him. It would kill him.
He stretched out his hand and on it appeared a white bandage. He wrapped it around his head, so that it covered his eyes. It didn't matter if he couldn't see, his other senses were just as strong. He probably wouldn't need it.
Then he realized that he was completely naked. He rubbed his chin for a moment then flames engulfed him. When the flames died down, there stood Naruto in his new attire.
He had a black muscle shirt and black shinobi pants from his time. He wore black boots, suited for battle. To honor the memory of his father, he also had the white coat with flames licking the bottom. The only change was that there were no kanji's for Yondaime Hokage. His forearms were covered by metal gauntlets, those that ANBU wore. His hands were covered by fingerless black gloves. On his thigh was a single kunai. It was a three-pronged one. The one he used to use for Hiraishin. He didn't think he would need it, but just in case. The green diamond was hanging from his neck, the one that Tsunade gave him.
He checked himself over a bit more and then disappeared in a swirl of flames.
-:-
Naruto appeared again in a swirl of flames, this time in a place covered by many trees. He looked around and closed his eyes. He concentrated to locate a magic source. The source of Natsu. His eyes flew open and he nodded in approval.
He turned around and started to walk calmly towards South, where Magnolia Town was. If he was correct, that was where the guild Fairy Tail resided.
While he was walking calmly, he was looking around. The atmosphere was calm and relaxing. It helped him clear his mind.
After quite some time, he reached his destination. Magnolia Town. It was bustling with life.
The streets were full of life. Shops were open, children were playing around, and people continuing life. He continued to walk calmly.
While he walked, he noticed something. No one looked at him as if he was weird. Maybe people were used to see strangers, or just in this town were a lot of weird people like him. He didn't pay any mind to it.
Naruto approached a small girl, probably no older than 11 years, and asked his question.
"Hello little one, can you tell me where can I find Fairy Tail?" Naruto asked calmly, his face betrayed no emotion or whatsoever. His eyes didn't, because they couldn't.
The little girl looked up to see a man that had a white coat with red flames licking the bottom of it, but the most strange thing was that around his head was a bandage that covered his eyes.
The girl lifted a hand and pointed down the street. This caused Naruto to chuckle slightly.
"You must tell me, little one. I can't see." Naruto said calmly, in a soothing voice. The little girl blushed from embarrassment and quickly mumbled a small apology.
"It's at the end of this road, Mister." The girl said, looking at him with curiosity. Naruto nodded his head and just as he was about to continue his way, the same girl stopped him.
"Mister, what happened to your eyes?" The girl asked with innocent curiosity. It was just curiosity, nothing else. Naruto looked at her for a moment, then answered.
"I want to make a surprise for a friend, and I don't want him to recognize me by my eyes. So I decided to hide them." Naruto said in an amused voice. The little girl giggled and then nodded. Naruto continued his way without another word.
After a couple of minutes, he felt a great deal of magical energy from nearby. That had to be Fairy Tail. Apparently, there were many mages in the guild, so it would be acceptable that there would be a great deal of magical energy.
Naruto took a couple of steps more and then reached out with his hand to press it against the door.
'I hope I did the right thing.' Naruto thought before pushing the doors open.
-:-
It was a normal day in the guild Fairy Tail. Or, if you can call it a normal for a 'normal' person. The place was turned into a war zone.
It all started with Natsu challenging Gajeel and Gray into a fight. Gajeel had to use his magic to hit Natsu, but accidentally hitting Elfman right in the face. Then Elfman went rigid about how a man should defend himself and chaos erupted.
Yes, it was a normal day for the members of Fairy Tail.
Lucy was sitting at her chair at the bar, looking at the chaos before her with a sweat drop. What was with them starting fights the very first thing in the morning? She couldn't find the answer though.
"Don't worry, Lucy-san. I'm sure it will end soon." Wendy said nervously. She was too actually a little bit of confused as to why every morning there was a fight.
"I sure hope so." Lucy mumbled to herself and dropped her face in her hands.
Mirajane was just smiling, like nothing was wrong. She glanced around to spot her little sister Lisanna, but she had no such luck. Instead, her eyes landed on a person she had never seen before.
She guessed that he was around 6,2 feet tall and was 24 or 25 years old. He had blond hair that brushed his shoulders and a bandage over his eyes. He wore a white coat with red flames licking the bottom of it, but she couldn't make out what was inside. The strange thing was, that on each cheek he had three whisker-like scars. His frame was muscular.
"HEY! We have a visitor, stop it!" Mirajane yelled and everyone grew quiet as their attention went to the newcomer. Slowly everyone's eyes widened at the form of the man.
-:-
Naruto pushed the doors open and kicked back the urge to cover his ears. The place was like a war zone.
Everything was being thrown at someone, or somewhere. Spell names could be heard. Apparently, this guild liked to fight with Magic or hand to hand. Mostly Magic, he guessed.
But a certain shout of somebody caught his attention.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!" Natsu shouted, as from his mouth shot a tornado of fire towards Gajeel. Said man just jumped away and dodged the attack.
Naruto got a small smile on his lips after he heard that. He had found Natsu.
Finally, somebody had noticed him and shouted.
"HEY! We have a visitor, stop it!" Yelled a white haired girl from somewhere at the center. Everybody stopped what they were doing and looked at him. He could feel their mouths hang open in shock.
The members of Fairy Tail quickly broke apart and sat at the tables calmly. Naruto actually had to push back the urge to sweat drop.
While being careful, he started to walk towards the source of the shout he had heard earlier. He was careful, because he didn't want to trip over anything. He knew that he wouldn't fall, but being sure never hurt.
Naruto could feel the gazes currently resting on him. He sighed and finally after a time that seemed like a century, he reached the bar. He heard soft footsteps coming towards him from the bar. He guessed it was the same one that had yelled for everyone to stop.
"Hello, how can I help you?" Mirajane asked, smiling. Naruto's ears caught the voice and turned towards it.
"I want to join the guild." Naruto answered calmly. Mirajane was taken aback by that statement.
"Are you a mage?" Mirajane asked once again, her tone dripping with confusion. Everyone turned quiet, and their attention was at him.
Naruto sighed. His senses were still that of a Dragon. He could even hear the drops of water in the corner. He could sense everything around him. He was just as strong, even without his eyes. But he couldn't let them know that. Not yet, at least.
"Yes, I am. Why, is there no place?" Naruto asked.
"No, no. Of course there is. But we must wait for Master to come. He will arrive shortly." Mirajane said with a small smile. Naruto nodded.
"Can I wait here, if its not too bothersome?" Naruto asked once again.
Mirajane nodded and saw that Naruto was still waiting for an answer. She mentally slapped her forehead before answering. "Of course. It will be no problem.".
Naruto nodded and went over to a table and sat down. Everyone returned to their business, but the newcomer was still the hot topic.
-:-
"Hey Gray, Erza, Lucy, Elfman,Wendy, lets go talk to the new guy." Natsu offered. They all nodded and stood up from their seats.
They made their way towards the man, who was sitting cross-legged and was looking at the ceiling. He couldn't look through these bandages though, only his head was towards the ceiling.
"Hey, are those seats free?" Asked Natsu. Lucy whacked him over the head for that. Naruto only nodded, but his head remained in the same position.
They all took their seats and there was an uncomfortable silence. Fortunately, Lucy broke it.
"Hello, what is your name?" Lucy asked. Naruto finally turned his head towards her, but she couldn't make out how he managed to know she was exactly there.
"My name is Namikaze Naruto. Nice to meet you." Naruto answered shortly. Lucy smiled and told him all of their names.
"Hey Naruto, where are you from?" Natsu asked.
"Hmmm, even if I told you, none of you would recognize that place. I'm from very far. I'm not sure if even one person knows the place where I come from." Naruto said in a calm voice. His voice radiated power, Erza noticed. This was no ordinary man.
"I heard that you were a mage, what kind of magic do you use, Naruto-san?" Erza asked with narrowed eyes. This was man not normal.
Naruto turned his head towards Erza and raised a hidden eyebrow. He crossed his arms on his chest and asked.
"Why do you want to know, Erza-san?" Naruto asked, feeling defensively. Erza's eyes narrowed even more and her eyebrows furrowed.
"Well, I'm just curious. Would you like to spar some time?" Erza asked, wanting to know what his abilities were. This shocked the entire group. Erza wanting to spar? Against a blind man?
"Maybe you can find out for yourself, Erza-san. Why don't we spar right now?" Naruto offered. Erza was taken aback by that, but she inwardly smirked.
"Very well. Let us go to the training ground." Erza said and stood up. Everybody once again stopped and turned their attention to the group. They all stood up and followed the new guy and the Titania.
-:-
"I will go easy on you, since you are new and you don't have your eyes." Erza smirked as she equipped a simple sword. She didn't think she would need to use any of her armors or weapons.
Naruto just nodded and took out the three pronged kunai from its sheath from his tight. Everyone's jaw dropped to the floor. A simple knife against the Titania?
'Well, lets see if I still remember the Hirashin.' Naruto thought with a smirk.
Erza readied herself and charged forward. Naruto didn't move, the kunai was still in his hand that was by his side. Erza raised her sword and swung it down. Dust and smoke covered the area.
'So much for the new guy.' Almost everyone thought. What they saw when the smoke passed away shocked them all.
There stood Erza, her sword impaled to the ground. But Naruto was nowhere to be seen.
"What?" Erza shouted. Just as she was about to take her sword out from the ground, she froze.
"Slow." Naruto only muttered behind her. Erza's eyes grew wide with shock, along with everyone else's. When had he moved?
Erza took the sword from the ground and swung it behind her, only for it to slice the air.
"Too slow." Naruto muttered once again from behind her. Erza was once again shocked and jumped away to create a distance between them. She narrowed her eyes.
"How do you move so fast?" Erza half asked half yelled.
"That is for me to know, and for you to….. not know." Naruto said mockingly and drew back the hand that held his kunai, preparing to throw it.
Erza gripped her sword even tighter and narrowed her eyes.
Naruto threw the kunai directly at her head. Erza only cocked her head to the side, letting the kunai pass. This was just the thing Naruto hoped for.
Just as the kunai went by her head, Naruto disappeared with a yellow flash and appeared behind her, with one hand holding both of her hands in place and the other one holding a kunai to her throat. He was behind her.
"What….? How…?" Erza was at loss for words. She had only seen a yellow flash. Naruto released her hands and removed the kunai from her throat, and turned towards the guild building.
"Wait! Was that your magic?" Erza asked, still feeling shocked. Naruto turned towards her and cocked his head to the side.
"No. My magic is entirely different. That was merely a 'technique' that my father invented. It's called 'The Hiraishin No Jutsu' or you could translate it as 'Flying Thunder God Technique'. As for my magic, I use an element. There is one person with the same element as mine right here." Naruto said calmly, and ignored the looks that were a mixture of curiosity and awe. Erza was defeated like that?
"Well, that was surely interesting." Called a new voice. Everyone turned towards the entrance and saw Master Makarov.
"Master!" Everyone shouted at the same time, except Naruto. Makarov's gaze was upon Naruto. He narrowed his eyes. This man was hiding a great deal of magic energy. He hid it so well, that he in fact would have missed it if he hand concentrated enough.
"I heard that you wanted to join this guild, right? Any special reason?" Makarov asked, narrowing his eyes.
"In fact, yes. There is one special reason." Naruto said calmly, his face betraying no emotion. Since his eyes were hidden, Makarov couldn't make out what emotion was in them.
"What might that be?" Makarov asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I don't want to reveal it. It is a very special reason, and I don't trust anyone easy." Naruto said and sighed. Makarov's brow furrowed.
"You can trust us." Makarov pushed. He was really curious now. Naruto chuckled lightly. The members were taken aback. This was the first the Naruto had ever displayed any emotion.
"Trusting too much cost me my eyes. Maybe in the future, I can reveal my reason, but certainly not now." Naruto said. The thing about his eyes was a lie, but he didn't want them to know that he could see.
Many were saddened by that fact. They now understood why he didn't trust so easily.
"Well then, I see no reason to not let you into the guild. Welcome to Fairy Tail!" Makarov said and the entire hall erupted into cheers.
"But!" Makarov said, raising a finger. Everyone stopped their cheering. "I think we all want to know what your magic is, since you held your own so good against Erza." Everyone shouted 'Yes!' or just nodded. Naruto sighed.
"You are curious about my magic that much?" Naruto asked looking to the crowd. They all nodded. Naruto, this time couldn't hold it back, and sweat dropped.
"As I said, my magic is entirely different from the thing I used against Erza-san. The Technique I used was Flying Thunder God Technique. It was a teleportation magic that my father invented." Naruto said and saw everyone's jaws hit the floor.
'Amazing. Teleportation?' Levy asked herself mentally.
"But what is your actual magic?" Natsu asked impatiently.
Naruto turned his head towards Natsu and smiled. Everyone once again was taken aback by his display of emotion.
"Well, I don't know if I should tell you. Do you really want to know it?" Naruto asked, smirking. Why couldn't he have some fun.
The members groaned and yelled 'Yes! Yes!' all over again. Naruto put his hand near his ear and made a movement like he didn't hear it at all.
"I'm sorry? I couldn't hear you~" Naruto trailed off.
Everybody was shouting 'Tell us! Tell us!' by that time.
"I'll give you a hint. There are 3 or more people here in this guild right now that use the same magic as me." Naruto said, his face again betraying no emotion, but he was laughing his ass off inside.
"Take-Over Magic?" Mirajane, Elfman, and Lisanna hopefully asked at the same time. Naruto shook his head. Natsu, Wendy and Gajeel were sure that it was no Dragon Slayer Magic. They would feel something if it was.
"Well, I guess it doesn't matter anymore. I've hid it for too long." Naruto said and sighed. Everyone grew quiet at that. What did he mean?
"I use Dragon Slayer Magic." Naruto said seriously. Everyone's eyes grew wide and their attention turned to Natsu, Gajeel and Wendy, whose eyes were wide as well.
"D-Dragon S-Slayer?" Wendy asked a bit shakily. Naruto looked at her and nodded.
"That is correct Wendy, the daughter of Grandeeney." Naruto said. Wendy's eyes grew wide with shock.
"Y-You know G-Grandeeney?" Wendy asked a bit hopefully. Naruto nodded.
"Natsu Dragneel, the son of Igneel. Gajeel Redfox, the son of Metalicana." This time, it was Gajeel's and Natsu's eyes that were wide with shock.
"You know Igneel/Metalicana?" Natsu and Gajeel asked at the same time, standing up. Naruto once again nodded.
"This means Dragons are real?" Asked Alzack.
"Yes, they are real. In fact, I know the reason why they leave their children, the Dragon Slayers." Naruto said, with a hint of anger in his voice.
Natsu, Gajeel and Wendy immediately stood up.
"Why? Why did they leave us? Why didn't they take us with them?" Asked Natsu, looking to the floor, fists clenched. Lucy's eyes softened and she put a hand on his shoulder, an effort to comfort him.
"Did they not want us? Did we do something wrong?" Gajeel asked, punching the wall, creating a small crater upon it.
Everyone could see the tears that were threatening to fall in Natsu and Gajeel's eyes.
Before either of her comrades could stop her, Levy went over to Gajeel and put her small hand on his forearm. Gajeel looked at her and she could see the tears gathering up in his eyes. Then she did the only thing she could think of, she hugged him. Gajeel was shocked.
"No, they didn't leave you because they hated you. I can only tell you this, that they didn't hate you. You will figure it out yourself, when you are old enough." Naruto said.
"Tell me dammit! Why did Igneel leave me?" Natsu asked, his eyes glistering with unshed tears. Naruto's heart was breaking.
Naruto wanted to hug him, tell him that he was Igneel. He wanted to end this pain for Natsu, but not just now. When the time came, he would tell him, but not now. He needed to endure this pain for now.
Right now, the only ones that remained at the training grounds were him, Natsu, Lucy, Gajeel, Levy, Wendy. Happy and Carla were away. Everyone thought that they needed to give them some privacy. It was a personal matter, after all.
Gajeel was still looking at the blue-haired girl that was still hugging him. He looked around, and saw that no one was here at the moment. He hesitated at first, yelling at himself to stop, but he couldn't right now. He wrapped his arms around Levy, pulling her closer to him.
Natsu fell to his knees, and punched the ground.
'Oh fuck it!' Naruto said to himself mentally and started to walk towards where Gajeel, Natsu and Wendy were.
"Lucy-san, Levy-san, Gajeel-san, Wendy-san, could you leave us? I want to talk Natsu for a moment." Naruto said. This earned some confused looks from all of them, but they nodded nonetheless.
Gajeel made a move to stand up from his position on the ground, but Levy didn't move. He looked down to see that she had fallen asleep. He sweat dropped. He stood up and carried her bridal-style towards her home. He knew the location of her home from following her every night secretly, just to make sure that she was safe.
Wendy and Lucy returned back to the guild building.
Natsu looked at Naruto with a confused face that Naruto could feel, since he couldn't see because of those bandages. The bandaged man went over to Natsu and put a hand on his shoulder.
Before Natsu knew it, he was in a place covered by trees. He looked around in confusion, before his eyes landed on Naruto that was staying in front of him.
"Why did you bring me here?" Natsu asked, looking at him. Naruto sighed and started to undo the bandage that was around his head. Natsu's eyes locked onto his head.
Naruto finally had removed the bandage, but his eyes were still closed.
"Hello Natsu." Naruto said, opening his eyes.
He saw how Natsu's eyes widened.
