The future before us

Path of the dragon

Chapter 1 new beginning

The moon glistened in the night sky reflecting down upon the forest shrouded in darkness. The only sound echoing through those woods was the breaking of twigs and the rustling of leaves as the pink haired girl ran frantically through the area. Both her lungs and throat ached as she cried out for her mother and father with all her might seeking nothing more than to find them and go home. "Mummy! Daddy! Where are you? I'm scared I want to go home" The little girl pleaded tears falling from her eyes as she searched. The pink haired girl wore a light blue t-shirt and a short skirt unable to cover up the mud she got tainted with as she fell to the ground and scampered up on her feet again. She cried as she walked onwards her feet in substantial pain as she walked and walked without finding an exit. As she travelled forward, she bumped her head against an object knocking her down backwards. She looked upwards at what she first assumed to be another tree. However, unfortunately she wasn't so lucky. "Hey little runt that hurt!" The voice boomed as it looked down upon her.

"I'm really sorry mister I'm just looking for." She said being cut off by the creature.

"Hey you're pretty cute little girl, how about I make you my wife?" The creature walked into the light the moon reflected revealing its true identity. A towering forest gorilla stood before her grinning maliciously as it grasped her in its mighty fist. "Let go of me please. I just want to go home." She said feeling very frightened as the creature glared at her.

"Oh you are going home don't worry little girl. Your new home that is." The gorian said.

"No somebody help me!"

"Let Amy go!" A voice echoed as they leaped from the darkness.

"Big brother Haru!" Amy said as she saw the little boy appear.

"I won't say it again, let go of my little sister!" Haru said as he unsheathed his sword. Haru was a little bit taller than Amy his silver spiked up hair reflected off the moon as it waved in the wind. He wore a blue tank top with a black jacket and grey shorts. His eyes pierced a glare at the gorian as he charged it his blade in hand. Haru charged with no hesitation, stabbing his sword into the foot of the forest monkey as he unleashed a war cry. The gorian roared out as the blade pierced his flesh. Haru unsheathed the sword from the creature's skin slashing its leg next. The monkey grew angrier as the little kid attacked his limbs. "Stop it right now little brat! Or I'll crush your little pipsqueak like a watermelon!" The gorian threatened tightening his grip.

"It hurts it hurts Haru I just want to go home." Amy said still flooding tears as she winced in pain.

"Okay okay just don't hurt her." Haru said as he kneeled dropping his sword.

"That's right just hold still." The gorian said as he raised his monstrous foot.

"Stop! Big brother Haru!" Amy screamed as the monster went to step on her brother.

"Looks like you haven't changed; you're still picking on little kids who can't defend themselves. And to top it off you hold what's dear to them hostage!" A voice echoed as they walked from the trees.

"Daddy!" Amy screamed feeling relief as her pink haired dad arrived.

"Wait a second, that scarf. That pink hair? Don't tell me you're that little brat from before?!" The gorian said enraged at the sight of him.

"Looks like you remember me. Now how about you put down my daughter before I kick your ass!" The figure said now fully showing himself.

His white scaled scarf, his pink spiky hair and his black sleeveless top. Natsu Dragneel was cracking his knuckles as he prepared for battle.

"Sure I'll give her back. Here!" The gorian said throwing Amy towards the nearest tree.

"Amy!" Haru shouted as he saw his cute sister heading straight into harm.

All of a sudden, a light illuminated in the branches as the ball of light shot towards Amy catching her and averting her from danger. Amy whimpered soon stopping as she opened her eyes seeing now who held her. "Mummy!" Amy said looking up at the silver haired woman who held her.

"Lisanna take care of Amy, I'm going to kick this guy's ass for hurting my family!" Natsu said as he marched towards the gorian.

"Don't do it daddy you'll get hurt!" Amy said about to protest more until Lisanna stroked her cheek.

"Don't worry sweetheart, Daddy is very strong" Lisanna said smiling as she watched Natsu.

"Do you think I'm stupid enough to take you on be myself?" The gorian said as four other forest gorilla's joined him.

"Kill him!" The head gorian ordered pointing at Natsu.

The first gorian charged Natsu head on reaching out its monstrous hand as it aimed to bind him.

Natsu grinned as he effortlessly upper cutted the monkey sending it to the stars above only to come down again like a meteor. The gorians didn't cease their assault though as two more gorians charged the dragon slayer. Natsu leaped into the air performing a 360 spin as he sent a deadly roundhouse kick to the forest gorilla's jaw. Followed by a powerful punch to the forest gorilla behind him who attempted to attack from behind. Lisanna exhaled slowly staring at Natsu a faint blush on her cheeks. "What is it mummy?" Amy questioned seeing Lisanna's expression.

"No matter how many times I see your father fight I can't get over how cool and dreamy he is." Lisanna said staring with a huge smile on her face as Natsu dispatched the Gorians.

Another gorian tried to step on Natsu but he anticipated this and used the opportunity to get behind the giant creature. Grasping its tail as he spun him round and round throwing him at a huge boulder.

"Don't get too cocky brat!" The gorian said as he lifted a colossus boulder launching it straight towards Natsu.

Natsu grinned as he drove his fist through the flying object reducing it to rubble.

"What are you a monster?! You're not even using magic!" The gorian said starting to back step.

"Oh you want me to use magic? Then I'll turn you to ashes." Natsu said igniting his flames around him.

"Ahhhhh stay away from me you monster!" The gorian screamed as he turned and fled.

Natsu extinguished his flames turning to his son.

"You did well Haru you protected your sister and I'm proud of you." Natsu said placing a hand on haru's head messing up his hair.

"Thank you dad but you were awesome just now those monkeys didn't stand a chance!" Haru said excitedly staring in awe at his father's power.

"Daddy!" Amy said running towards Natsu crashing into his abdomen and hugging him tight.

"You were so cool daddy I was so scared but I knew you would save us." Amy said tears leaking from her eyes as she hugged him tight.

Natsu smiled hugging her back as he stroked her hair.

"There's nothing to worry about Amy, me and your mum won't let anything happen to either of you." Natsu said looking over towards Lisanna smiling at him.

"Father, I've decided what magic I want to learn. I want to be a better swordsman so I can protect my little sister." Haru said sheathing his sword.

Natsu smiled at his son. "Sure thing son I know just the teacher for you then. I'll introduce you to them first thing tomorrow."

"What about you Amy?" Lisanna said looking down to her.

"I want to learn dragon slayer magic so I can be strong just like daddy!" Amy said pulling a fighting pose.

Natsu laughed at his daughter. "Sure thing! And then we can spar each other!" Natsu said pulling a fighting pose himself.

Lisanna giggled as she embraced Natsu feeling proud of her children as she heard them claim to get stronger.

My name is Natsu Dragneel I am now 21 years old. Five years ago I married the love of my life Lisanna Strauss now known as my beautiful wife Lisanna Dragneel. I gave her what she wanted and we were blessed with twins a boy and a girl. First to come was our son who we named Haru. And then next was our beautiful daughter Amy.
