Summary: When the already rare Dragon Slayer mages start to disappear, what will the fiery Natsu do to save his friends and allies?

A/N: I know there are only five actual and two artificial dragon slayers in the actual thing, but again, this is a fanfiction. There are a few more dragon slayers, though they are still rare.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters besides the evil ones.


Chapter 1 ~ Dangerous Toys

Don't try this at home, kids...

The gleaming emerald eyes scrunched up, pleased at the outcome. The voice belonging to them slithered from the man's mouth, which was twirked up in a grimace of a smile.

"Good, the Knight is coming along well, I see. Soon, it will be ready for testing." The hooded figure turned it's silver eyes to his face.

"When do you want the subjects?"

"Start bringing them now... We'll need all we can get before it's done."

"How do you want me to get the special one?"

"Any way possible. Use his friends if you have to."

"And the weapon?"

"Nearly completed. I can tell you're eager for it to be done." A grin appeared from under the shade of the hood.

"Yes, I'm very eager." A slight, dark chuckle floated from the darkness. "I can't wait to cause immeasurable pain to those slayers. Especially while I drain their magic and leave them helpless."

The hooded figure drifted or walked, it was hard to tell, and picked up the sword with the jagged blade edge and blood-red gleam.

"I cannot wait to take out the Salamander with my magic and this Knight."

"Remember, we have to keep him alive for a short while. No killing him right off the bat until we know how the knight works on him."

"Yes, Master. I will be as patient as possible."

"Good. Go and think up a plan. Execute it as necessary, and make sure that he is alive, though not necessarily in one piece."

"Yes, Master." The hooded figure nodded and drifted away. The tall, green-eyed monster turned and stroked the blade lovingly.

"Soon, my perfect creation. We'll know how well you work soon."

The blade glittered menacingly, the red gleam anticipating the day it got its first taste of blood. Especially the blood of dragon slayers.


Extremely short, but it's just a prologue for what is going to be going down. I'll have the next chapter up as soon as I have time.
