Different Alliances For The Dragon Slayer
Chapter 1 - Alliances made.
What would've happened if our poor dragon slayer was framed for something he hadn't done? Will he meet someone he wouldn't think of meeting anytime soon? Lots of things to be revealed. Takes place after Edolas Arc.
"But Master I didn't burnt down the whole village!" Someone exclaimed with innocence in his eyes and heart.
"Natsu, we have reports that when you were at a mission with Lucy and Gray, you burnt down the village you were protecting from the dark guild. Instead of you killed every single of them and the council wants to take you in custody, as Fairy Tail's third master, I ask you to have faith in yourself." Makarov spoke and rushed into his office while leaving everyone speechless.
"Natsu, it's time for you to leave." Doranbolt said as he went closer to Natsu and grabbed his arms and place handcuffs on them. Doranbolt then led Natsu outside the guild hall while everyone were just looking at him and were too shocked to do anything. The most shocking thing was Erza didn't even touch her strawberry cake!
Mirajane was just shocked as Erza, she wasn't working on the bar right now. Mirajane was wondering if Natsu could actually do something like that, everyone knew that Natsu had the tendency of going overboard but this was more than going overboard and she was not going to believe that Natsu killed people.
With Lahar, Doranbolt and Natsu
"You are the guy who arrested Jellal, aren't you?" Natsu asked while pointing at Lahar.
"Yes, is there a problem with it?" Lahar said in a calm and collected voice. Natsu just shook his head in response, the whole ride went in the silence after it.
When they arrived at the prison, Natsu was a bit terrified because of all those criminals there and the ones whom he had defeated in the past. Thankfully Natsu was in the same cell as an old friend or enemy, his name is Jellal. When Natsu first saw Jellal in the same cell as his, he was quite shocked.
"Jellal..." Natsu muttered loud enough for Jellal to hear.
"Natsu Dragneel, what are you doing here?" Jellal asked while motioning Natsu to sit. The cell wasn't much comfy, it was more like a normal prison cell.
"Well, I'm framed for burning down a whole village including the people there." Natsu spoke quietly as he took a seat opposite of Jellal.
"I doubt you can actually kill someone." Jellal whispered.
1 Week later
Erza was at the Magic Council prison to visit Jellal and Natsu, she was there to inform Natsu that they are going to Tenrou Island for the S-class trials. Erza was being escorted to Natsu's cell by Lahar. When they reach the cell, Erza saw Natsu talking to Jellal. Titania was shocked to see her childhood friend talking with her ex-guild member. Erza walked towards the Cell and the voice made by her boots made Jellal and Natsu turn their attention to her.
"Look who is here..." Natsu muttered quietly as he noticed Erza walking towards his cell.
"Natsu look I'm here to inform you that we are going to the Tenrou Island for-" Erza was cut off by Natsu.
"The S-class trials, right?" Natsu finished as Erza just nodded.
"Look Natsu I know that you are angry at us because we didn't help you with this case but we can't do anything in front of Magic Council.." Erza said as she touched Natsu's hand slightly.
"It's not that anymore. I'm happy now, I have a friend with me. What else would I need?" Natsu said while he pointed towards Jellal.
"Erza Scarlet, the visiting time is over, please leave." Lahar said as he walked towards Erza and escorted her outside the prison.
"Natsu, are you alright?" Jellal questioned in concern for his friend.
"Yeah.." Natsu said with tears in his eyes.
1 Year Later
It had been an year since Natsu was taken in custody by the Magic Council and in this year lots of things happened, like the core members of Fairy Tail disappearing after Acnologia attacked the island, Jellal regained his memories.
Natsu and Jellal were talking to each other so the time could pass easily, when they heard someone screaming for help. Natsu and Jellal ran towards the iron bars of their cell to see what was going on and what they saw was preposterous. They were witnessing the cell guards being beaten by 2 women. When the guards were defeated they started moving towards Natsu and Jellal's cell.
The 2 women undid their cloaks, the 2 unknown women were none other than Ultear and Meredy. Ultear used her Arc of Time to rewind the cell's iron bars.
"Jellal, we are here to free you from this prison." Ultear said as she walked inside the cell with Meredy following her.
"No, I have to repay for my sins and I can't run away from a prison after what I've done." Jellal said as he declined Ultear's offer.
"That's why we're here, we need you to join us, we are going to make an independent guild and our goal will be to destroy every dark guild and free this world from Zeref." Ultear explained while praying that the azure haired man would accept her offer.
"Okay but I have a condition." Jellal accepted the offer but he had a condition.
"Go ahead." Ultear said while Meredy walked right behind her.
"I want Natsu to join us, with him we'll be able to destroy the dark guilds with relative ease." Jellal said as he shocked the other 3 people with him.
"Why me, Jellal?" Natsu questioned with a frown on his face.
"Because I can't leave you here Natsu, you are the one who saved Erza from me and I'd like to repay the favor." Jellal explained his motives to Natsu.
"Okay." Natsu grinned like his old self after a long time.
"Sorry to interrupt but we have to leave before they dispatch Wizard Saints." Meredy interjected between the conversation.
"Right!" Ultear shouted as they all got out of the cell and were running outside the prison.
Ultear, Meredy, Jellal and Natsu were currently hiding in an abandoned castle, which Ultear had already found and she got everything which would make them comfortable. Currently Natsu was eating fire while Jellal was reading a book about Heavenly Body Magic and lastly Meredy and Ultear were watching the news of them breaking out of the prison. Apparently Magic Council had deployed the 8th Wizard Saint, Jura Neekis to search for them.
"Are they mad or something?" Natsu questioned as he heard what Ultear and Meredy were talking about.
"I know right, sending Jura Neekis a single Wizard Saint, while we have 4 wizards who are as strong as Wizard Saints." Ultear said as she thought about the same thing Natsu was.
"Who is the 4th person?" Natsu questioned while thinking who could be the 4th person.
"Idiot. It's you." Meredy said as she punched Natsu in the head. That's mean, isn't it?
"Okay but did you really have to hit me?" Natsu asked while rubbing his head where Meredy punched him.
"Anyways moving on from the topic, what is our guild's name?" Jellal asked out of the blue.
"Well, we wanted it to be Crime Sorcière, but if you want you can change." Ultear said while looking at Jellal and Natsu's face.
"Well.. we're fine with the name but what about the guild insignia?" Natsu asked with Jellal agreeing with him.
"It will be like..." Ultear explained and placed the guild insignia on Natsu and Jellal. Natsu had the guild mark placed on his right shoulder and Jellal had his placed on back. (It's hard to describe the insignia so you can check it wherever you want)
Later, while they were having dinner, suddenly they heard knock on the castle's door. Jellal and Natsu went to check who was there. When they opened the door, they saw about 10 people standing outside, they were looking ready to attack them.
"Give us all your money." One of them said, he was a tall guy with brown hair. When Natsu and Jellal didn't give in his request, they were ready to attack them. One of them attacked Natsu but in return he just sidestepped and dodged the attack, Natsu then grabbed the guy who tried to attack him and punched him in the face knocking him out. Jellal used Heavenly Arrows and knocked out the other 9 thugs.
Natsu and Jellal high fived each other. Later, Jellal used Meteor and threw all the thugs somewhere far from the castle. Currently Natsu was talking to Jellal on his magic power.
"My strength has drastically decreased in his 1 year.." Natsu sighed with his hands covering his head.
"Why don't you practice your dragon slayer spells?" Jellal suggested with a smile.
"That is a good idea!" Natsu shouted as he jumped and roared fire.
"Let's go to sleep for now." Jellal said as he grabbed Natsu and walked towards the rooms.
Next Day
Natsu and Jellal were outside practicing their skills, even though Jellal is stronger than Natsu, he was having a hard time since both of them didn't use their magic for like 1 year. Ultear and Meredy were cooking breakfast for them.
"Fire Dragon's Breakdown Fist!" Natsu shouted as he punched the air, releasing a giant, high-speed flaming blast in shape of a fist, when the fist connected with Jellal, there was a loud explosion and when the smoke died down, Natsu could see Jellal in scratches.
"Good job boys, but now time for breakfast." Ultear said as she and Meredy brought food for 4 of them.
When they all were done eating food, Natsu thought about their first mission.
"What is going to be our first mission?" Natsu questioned Ultear.
"We have to take down a dark guild called Dark Scythe." Ultear said as she showed everyone the map of the guild hall.
"What's the plan?" Meredy asked out of the blue.
"We are going to use Ultear's Arc of Time to destroy all the exit paths, whereas Natsu and I are going to enter the place from the top and Meredy you are going to protect Ultear. Got it everyone?" Jellal explained his plan to everyone and they nodded at response.
After 2 hours
Crime Sorcière were ready for their first mission. They were outside the hall and luckily no one was outside. Ultear destroyed the walls, which became rubble and blocked all the exits.
Natsu and Jellal were ready for Meredy's signal. They saw a sword flying in the air and quickly destroyed the top of the guild hall.
Jellal used Heavenly Beams to take out the members and Natsu used his Fire Dragon Slayer spells to burn down everyone. When every member was defeated, a man wearing a cloak came out and took out his scythe. He quickly slashed the scythe towards Natsu and Jellal, luckily they both had top notch reflexes and jumped out of the way.
"Natsu you go out and take care of Ultear and Mered, I'll handle this guy." Jellal said as Natsu nodded at his words and jumped out of the hall and he began to search for Ultear and Meredy.
"Let's do this old geezer. Heavenly Arrows!" Jellal challenged the person and used Heavenly Arrows to attack him. When the arrows were about to connect to the person in the cloak, he moved his scythe in front of him and the weapon blocked the arrows.
"You leave me with no choice." Jellal said as placed his right hand on the ground and his left hand pointing towards the sky. Black clouds appeared and suddenly a meteor attacked the place after the smoke died down, the cloaked person who was supposedly the master was knocked out.
With Natsu and Others
Natsu almost tracked down Ultear and Meredy and when he did, he saw them fighting off like 50 dark guild members.
"Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame" Natsu shouted as he ignited both of his hands in flame and brought them together, making a huge ball made out of fire and then he threw the ball at his enemies. The attack was so efficient that every enemy got knocked out.
"Thanks for saving us but we could've handle them ourselves." Ultear said as she blushed a bit.
"Jellal told me to look out for both of you." Natsu said as he walked towards the rubble of the Dark Scythe's guild hall.
"Okay.." Ultear said as she turned her face down and her voice had disappointment in it.
Later
Currently Crime Sorcière were in their guild hall, which is a big castle. Natsu was in his room trying to sleep but he couldn't, so he got out of the castle and started walking towards Magnolia. But when he was about to get out of the area, he stepped on a small tree branch and it made voice loud enough for Jellal, Meredy and Ultear to hear. The trio quickly got out of the castle and were ready to fight if it was an enemy.
When they reached the spot where the voice came from, they saw Natsu sitting under a tree and they could see sadness in his face. Ultear and Jellal walked up to him while Meredy returned to the castle to keep it safe.
"Natsu?" Ultear said as she sat beside Natsu.
"Yes?" Natsu asked as he forced a smile on his face and looked towards Ultear.
"Where were you going?" Ultear asked with concern in her voice.
"I.. wasn't able to sleep. So I was thinking about checking Magnolia out and see if Fairy Tail is doing good." Natsu explained as he placed his face in both of his hands.
"Natsu, I know that they are your family but try asking that question from your heart, do you think checking on the people who betrayed you is the right thing to do?" Ultear asked as she put Natsu in deep thoughts.
After thinking for a while, Natsu was on his conclusion.
"No." Natsu said as got up and looked towards his 2 friends. "You guys coming?"
"Yeah." Ultear said as she got up and started walking towards their base and Jellal behind her.
"Hey Ultear?" Natsu asked just before they were about to enter the hideout.
"Yes?" Ultear replied.
"Could you.. please sleep with.. me?" Natsu exclaimed quickly but in a hushed tone.
"Why do you want me to sleep with you?" Ultear questioned with an eyebrow raised.
"Because, whenever I missed Igneel, Mira used to help me sleep and Erza would knock me out." Natsu explained in a shy way.
"Alright..." Ultear said as she followed Natsu into his room silently.
Next Day
When sun rays shine on Ultear's face, she was instantly awake and when she removed the comforters, she realized she was naked and when she removed the comforters from Natsu, he was naked as well.
"Naaaaaaatsu!" Ultear screamed but only loud enough so it would not go outside the room.
Yo guys, Abyss here and well, sorry for my absence, well I was working on this and studying a lot for my exams. Also guys due to the amount of hate I got on "The Demon General and Empire's strongest" because too many time skips and the filler in the anime made me rethink, should I go with Manga or Anime so yeah. Also another note, I think most of you know ValinNight and he is a good friend of mine and I loved his story called "Tenrou Group Lives on" so I'll be doing something similar to it, so be prepared.
