Chapter 1: Natsu's Father
The Salamander's power was overwhelming, but it proved to be pathetic against the venomous Minotaur which he opposed. His flames only helped the lethal toxins find a way into his body, his son on the other hand, had passed out trying to protect his village. Days passed as the Salamander fought, knowing the Minotaur had only been toying with him from the first moment they had crossed paths. His son, Natsu, was still out cold.
Days turned to weeks as the Salamander reached levels unknown to existence, but power turned to rage and his pride had gotten the better of him. Smoke filled the thick air, reducing the amount of oxygen, also leading to the desolation of Kasai Village.
Soon after, Natsu had awakened from his deep sleep, only to find a raging dragon standing before him, seeming to have defeated the deadly Minotaur. Natsu looked around hoping to see his father but was disappointed at the sight of destruction.
