"Out of the way! Move it!" A man at the age of seventeen was running through the streets of a large city. He had pink hair in spikes with a scale designed scarf. He wore a black vest and white pants and had a grey shirt with sandals. He also carried a large bag around his back. "Oh man! If I don't hurry, I'm done for!"

….

Over on another part of the town was a young and beautiful lady that was only about seventeen. She had long blonde hair with a small side ponytail. She wore a blue skirt and white top with a blue cross and wore boots. She was just walking through the town and was just minding her own business. She had out a deck of dueling cards and was admiring each one.

"Looking good." The girl said. "With some of those extra cards I bought, my deck will rock." She wasn't watching where she was going and went out on the street and failed to notice a car was heading right for her.

"Look out!" A heroic man jumped in and pushed her out of the way. Lucy just noticed the car drove by.

"Oh wow! I almost got hit!" Lucy looked up to her hero. He had blue hair with a white buttoned shirt with red pants. "Thank you so much for saving me."

"You're welcome, pretty lady." A whole group of girls cheered for him and they all seemed to have hearts in their eyes. "My name is Bora. You are very lucky I was close by. How about I treat you to a meal to see if you're unharmed." He gave her a wink, but she felt uncomfortable with all this.

"Out of the way! Out of the way!" Both of them looked and saw the pink hair man, but he wasn't stopping and rammed right into Bora and knocked them both off their feet.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" Bora said.

"I told you to get out of the way." The guy said. The group of women surrounded him and just beat him around for being so disrespectful.

"Forget this. I'm out of here." Bora said and left with the entourage. Lucy looked down on the guy was beaten down. He was able to get up, but he didn't look so well.

"Are you hurt?" Lucy asked.

"No." The guy said and she heard a loud grumble. "I'm starving. I need food."

"Oh! Come with me. There's a restaurant close." Lucy offered as she helped him stand. She took the guy to a restaurant and he was feeding like some sort of wild animal. "Don't forget to breathe. By the way, what's your name?"

"It's Natsu. Natsu Dragneel."

"Nice to meet you. My name is Lucy. Thanks a lot for helping me back there…even if it was an accident. I know that Bora guy saved me, but he was giving me the creeps." Natsu looked at the table and saw her dueling deck.

"So are you a duelist?" Natsu asked

"Um…a little." Lucy said. "I'm looking to join one of those duel guilds. Duel guilds are organizations where people can work to become professional duelists or some other pursuit in dueling. The one I want to join is claimed to be the best, Fairy Tail."

"Fairy Tail?" Natsu questioned.

"Yeah. Some of the members of that guild are amazing!" Lucy said as she was getting all giddy. "There's the Thunderbolt, Laxus. I've also heard about Titania, Erza. There's also Fairy Tail's beauty, Mirajane, and Black Steel Gajeel. I've also heard rumors about one known as Salamander." Lucy took out some money and left it on the table. "Anyway, I should get going."

"Hold on." Natsu said, but with food in his mouth and kept eating.

…..

Lucy

After she left Natsu, she couldn't stop thinking about her joining the Fairy Tail duel guild. Though there was a problem and that was she didn't know how she was going to convince them to let her become a member.

"Fairy Tail does sound amazing, but I doubt they just let anyone in" Lucy said as she tried to figure out what she was going to do.

"So we meet again." Lucy looked in front of her and was met with Bora again and his entourage of women.

"Not you again." Lucy complained.

"We were rudely interrupted earlier." Bora said. "I was passing by that restaurant and I overheard you say you want to become part of the duel guild Fairy Tail."

"Maybe. Why does that matter to you?" Lucy said.

"Well, I was thinking I could help you become a member." Bora said. "After all, I'm actually a member of that place."

"Seriously?! You're a member?!" Lucy said.

"Yeah. Why don't you come with me and see for yourself?" Bora said as he held out his hand for her. Lucy reached out to take it as she thought of what she dreamed of was about to come true.

"Lucy!" She felt herself being pulled back. She looked and saw it was Natsu again.

"Natsu? What is it?" Lucy said.

"First, I wanted to say thanks for the food. Second, I need to talk to you about something." Natsu said.

"You're the punk that ran into me earlier." Bora said and he looked mad. "Go bother someone else. Can't you see that the lady and I are talking?"

"Yeah, but I'm talking to her now. It's also important." Natsu said.

"Natsu, is there any chance this could wait?" Lucy said. "This Bora guy here was about to offer me a chance to be part of Fairy Tail. He's a member." Hearing that seemed to have spark something in him. Natsu looked over to him and he seemed mad.

"So you're a member of Fairy Tail?" Natsu said.

"Yeah. Why?" Bora said. Natsu reached inside his bag and pulled out a card carrier with his deck in and a red duel disk with him placing it on his arm.

"If you're really a member, duel me." Natsu said. All the girls were starting to get upset with Natsu and ready to throttle him again. "I hear that a real member of Fairy Tail never backs down from any challenge."

"Natsu, I'm not sure if this is a good idea." Lucy said.

"The lady's right. You're way out of your league." Bora said.

"What's the matter? Are you scared?" Natsu said.

"You asked for it." Bora said and got his duel disk on. Both of them activated their duel disks and they were ready to start.

"Let's duel!" Both of them said.

"I'll make the first move." Natsu said. "I'll start by summoning my Fire Dragon Iron Fist to the field in attack mode." A martial arts fighter that had two flaming fists and dragon designed clothes came on the field and he had 1600atk points. "Of course, since I went first, I'm not able to attack this turn. I'll just end it there."

"That's it? You just play one card?" Bora said. "Only an amateur plays one card. It's my turn now. I'll start by summon my Prominence Skull to the field in attack mode." He brought a magenta-like flame that was in the form of a skull with 1300atk points. "I'm also going to activate Red Prominence. When I have a Prominence monster on the field, it gains an extra 500atk points until the end of my turn." Prominence Skull's attack points rose up to 1800.

"So you use a fire deck like I do." Natsu acknowledge.

"They both use two different forms of fire decks?" Lucy questioned. "Something tells me this is going to get red hot."

"Prominence Skull, take out his Fire Dragon Iron Fist with Crackling Crunch!" Bora said. His skull grew in size as it crushed down on his monster and Natsu's life points dropped to 3800. "My skull has another ability. After he deals damage, you lose another 400 life points." The skull passed right through Natsu and his points dropped to 3400. "I think that's enough punishment for now." He said as his skull's attack points returned to normal.

"Not good. This Bora guy has taken an early lead." Lucy said.

"I'm just getting started." Natsu said as he drew his next card. "I think I'll play my little friend. I summon Happy Flying Cat." Natsu said a blue cat with feathered wings came out with 300atk points. Some of the audience found it adorable.

"A cat? I thought you said you use a fire deck?" Bora said. "Either way, that monster is nowhere near strong enough to take down my skull."

"Maybe not, but his special ability will help." Natsu said. "He's able to attack you directly. Happy, attack with Max Speed!" Happy took off like a rocket and slipped past Bora's monsters and tackled him in the head. Bora's life points dropped down to 3700.

"That's nowhere near enough to finish me." Bora said.

"Perhaps, but now that you took damage, I can activate my Burst Fist." Natsu said. "This spell takes the damage you just took and doubles it." A bunch of flaming fists were shot out of his spell and hit Bora with his life points dropping to 3100. "I place one card facedown and end my turn."

"Okay. Maybe you got some skill, but you still can't beat me." Bora said. "It's my turn. I release my Prominence Skull to summon Prominence Wizard." His skull vanished and in his place stood a wizard with a purple cape and was standing on the oddly colored flames. He also had 2300atk points. "Promience Wizard, have that cat lose all of its lives with Flame Typhoon." His wizard unleashed a spiral attack of the flames.

"Not so fast. I'm activating my Rescue Fire trap." Natsu said. "That means I can summon a fire attribute monster and block my little buddy's destruction. I summon Fire Dragon Talon!" Another martial artist jumped on the field with flames around his feet and the flames look like dragon feet. He jumped in and blocked the attack. Natsu still took some damage as his life points dropped to 1400. It also showed his Fire Dragon Talon had 1500atk points.

"So you saved your cat. Big deal." Bora said. "I'm going to activate my Red Shower spell. This spell will deal you 800 points of damage since I have a Prominence monster out." A bunch of fireballs rained down and around Natsu and his life points dropped down to 600. "That's it for now because you're finished next turn."

"I don't see how you can get out of this. That monster is just too strong." Lucy said.

"You don't need to worry about me." Natsu said. "I'm the one who's going to end this. It's my turn! You're not the only one that can release monster. I sacrifice both my monsters." Happy and Fire Dragon Talon vanished. "I summon Igneel the Fire Dragon!" A large red dragon came on the field surrounded by flames. It unleashed a mighty roar and his attack points were at 2500. All of them were amazed and scared of the dragon.

"Hold on. I've heard of that card." Lucy said. "It belongs to….Salamander!?"

"Wait. You mean….you're thee Salamander from Fairy Tail?" Bora said.

"That's right. My name is Natsu. I come from Fairy Tail and I've never seen you before." Natsu said. That was a surprising fact to everyone and they were starting to turn against him.

"You mean he lied?" Lucy said. "Don't tell me he did it just to get girls."

"I don't know what your reasons are and I really don't care." Natsu said. "I won't let you sully Fairy Tail's name. I activate Monster Reborn and bring back Fire Dragon Iron Fist." His monster came back on the field.

"That doesn't scare me. Even with both those monsters, I'll have plenty of life points." Bora said.

"No you won't. I'm activating Dragon Fire." Natsu said. "A dragon equipped with this card gains 500atk points." Igneel breathed out fire and his attack points rose to 3000. "I'm also going to use Igneel's ability. By sacrificing a fire attribute monster, he gains his attack points." Fire Dragon Iron Fist turned to flames and entered Igneel's mouth. His attack points rose up 4600. "One more thing. When a dragon equipped with Dragon Fire deals damage, he can deal an additional 800 points of damage."

"What?!" Bora said.

"Remember this the next time you think of using Fairy Tail's name." Natsu said. "Igneel, attack with Fire Dragon Roar!" Igneel unleashed a flame with the fury of a thousand suns. Bora's monster burned up in the attack and blew him back as his life points dropped to 0. Bora was beaten and people were leaving him like the loser he was.

"Oh man! That was insane!" Lucy said.

"Now that that's done, let's go!" Natsu said as he grabbed Lucy by the arm and started running again.

"Where are you taking me?!" Lucy said.

"You said you wanted to be part of Fairy Tail. So let's go then." Natsu said. Lucy couldn't believe that a dream of hers was about to come true. A brand new adventure is starting up.
