I DO NOT OWN FAIRY TAIL NOR ITS CHARACTERS OR HARRY POTTER AND ITS CHARACTERS
I'm sure you read the summary, so you should know for this to happen some serious stuff needs to go down. I only created Verra for this very quick plot.
This Harry Potter crossover would be going through all of the books. So if you haven't read a Harry Potter Fairy Tail crossover about a certain book, I will do that book.
I did a very horrible job at this first chapter but I believe that the others are much better.
**I'M NOT CAUGHT UP WITH THE NEWER MANGA NOW**
Like Yesterday
There was Natsu Dragneel, the pink haired dragon slayer, sitting on a leather black chair in a cluttered classroom. He walked over to a pile of books as tall as the ceiling and used his non-burning flames to grab one from close to the top. He walked back to his black desk but not before petting a small, snoozing blue cat on a cat house behind his desk and chair.
He opened the old, torn brown book and slowly turned the pages, looking at the pictures. Once he turned to a page with green edges, he stopped and thought, 'It felt just like yesterday...'
Flashback
X795
A scorched pale clearing once surrounded by green trees and colorful flowers was now bland like a desert. You could see the all-powerful 'dark guild' Devil's Hand versing the powerful 'light guild' Fairy Tail. During the years of X792 and X794, Laxus Dreyar had ascended to be the master of the guild after the fall of his grandfather Makarov.
The Fairy Tail Guild were now fighting the new enemy who had risen after the defeat of Zeref and the Alvarez Empire. Sadly, the guild that Fairy Tail was fighting against was always kept under the shadows. Only the most respected Dark guild masters knew of it. Erza had been the one to 'interrogate' the man and she quickly came back to the guild with a plan.
A large group of Fairy Tail guild had already fallen. Macao and Wakaba, two older members of the guild, had been dreadfully wounded by their men a few months prior in an ambush and sadly didn't make it to help in time. This left teenager Romeo despondent because he had been the one dragging their bodies on his back. He had been the one to see the life gone from their eyes. He had been the hopeless one. He blamed himself.
In the battle right now, Master Laxus had fallen to their guild master named Verra, a very powerful green haired woman who was in the Devil's Hand Guild for all of her life and she had beaten Laxus basically without breaking a sweat. This tremendously chipped into the morale of the family guild and it wasn't getting better. The only people who were close to her power were Natsu, Gray, and Guildarts. For the sake of plot, Gray and Guildarts were both fighting the Lieutenant named Haru while Natsu was easily picking off the troublesome cockroaches known as pawns.
"Does anyone pose a challenge for me?" Verra started, completely arrogant of her abilities. "I have already beaten your master! Why not just give up!"
She slashed her purple sword in the air in front of her and it created a massive crevice in the ground along with a thunderous roar in the sky. Quite a few mages had flinched at the seemingly small display of power. Again, their morale had fallen a tad bit more.
All of the members of the Fairy Tail guild knew that she was going to be a force to be reckoned with. They weren't idiots... except for Natsu who was now charging towards the scantily clad enemy.
Natsu always blindly drove into the battle and today was not an exception. He ground his teeth as he clenched his unflamed fist and threw it at her. Verra widened her eyes for a split second as she realized that someone was actually going to fight her. She gripped her sword a tiny bit tighter with one hand but decided against using it as they looked like an idiot. She quickly dodged the flaming fist to her head by simply stretching to the side a little bit. However, as she dodged the flaming fist, she kicked him straight back. The dragon slayer used his arms in an 'X' position to block the strike.
Realizing that this person was not simply a pushover, she fixed her grip on her magenta sword and gave a little staredown. She studied him and he studied her. There was no more sound of the battlefield in the background for them now. They were both solely focused on their opponent in front of them.
"Interesting," She said out loud, waiting for a twitch from her enemy just so that she could attack first.
Natsu didn't move an inch. His instincts were better than that. He had been in quite a few battles before and wasn't about to make a rookie mistake there, facing the woman who instigated the attack on his guildmates.
'Really, really interesting...' She thought before she leaped a great deal and swiped her sword up from the ground to her opponent's head. Natsu dodged the strike by napping his chin upwards to the sky and, as she followed through with her sword pointed up towards the heavens, Natsu skillfully crouched down and swept her feet out from under her.
She hit her head on the cracked, dry ground and she muttered profanities underneath her breath in response, utterly pissed at her stupid mistake. She soon spat blood out of her mouth and looked up at the demon before her.
"An actual fun time, hopefully," She remarked. Natsu just kept his piercing gaze down at her, unrelenting, unmoving, unwavering.
She put her hands behind her head, held her feet up slightly from the ground, and contracted her body, allowing her feet to spring her back to a standing position. She ran at an invisible speed to the normal human eye towards Natsu, her sword freed from its scabbard. As they met, the clash between her personally forged sword and Natsu's fists was like a dance, sparks and flames were flying all over their own small, deteriorated battlefield.
The other guild members were too focused on their own fights to watch Natsu's. They had never faced a stronger human enemy before and the hour of fighting was starting to take its unpending toll. Many mages on both sides were just waiting to catch their breaths for even a tiny second and even Titania was beginning to become a little sluggish when swinging her swords.
Now although Natsu had fought many strong opponents in his short, long, lifetime, he made sure not to make an idiotic mistake. He needed to use all parts of his body for this fight. He couldn't simply defeat his opponent with just one punch, this woman was an SS class villain. Natsu's mind had changed from childish mode to battle mode quickly. He would fight this battle for real to avenge Macao and Wakaba.
Although the battle took only five simple minutes, the two had actually sent out hundreds, thousands of strikes. The victor had been decided even before the fight begun. Now graveling on the ground, only held up by cut up, roughened hands, was Verra. She had several burns over her body and various bleeding scratches. Natsu decided to put her out of her misery when she was graveling on the dirt in front of him. He took a deep breath, mimicking a dragon just before a roar, and yelled out, "FIRE DRAGON'S ROOOOAAAAARRRR!"
A very large torrent of flames was what she saw. That was all she saw. A ball of fire, like the sun, exactly like the sun. The crimson flames were joined with sweet oranges and creamy yellows, molded perfectly into a beautiful, circular ball of destructiveness. She made no effort to run away, as she was too exhausted to do anything at the moment, and looked on at the nightmare. She smiled a moment before it hit her. Her consciousness was gone as soon as the flames first licked at her skin.
*Drip*
As Natsu Dragneel wiped his face after his amazing roar, he felt a warm liquid on his hand. He looked at it, puzzled, before he wiped his palm on his garbs. On the left side of his face, just below his eye was going to be a new scar. He burned the wound shut using a small amount of his remaining magic, fearing that it could get bigger if he were to fight another opponent.
He turned around, expecting to still be in the midst of war, but all of the Devil's Hand members were looking at him fearfully, not paying attention to their opponents at all.
"We're not done with you yet!" Mira yelled out in her demon forms, flying through the air and slashing trough her paused opponent. The man fell to the ground and pressed a hand to his stomach where a large cut was just beginning to bleed.
"F-Finish what we started!" He cried out, stuttering on the first word. "Don't let it be in vain!" Mira put a pointed heel onto his chest.
Haru, the lieutenant, was the one to rile his troops up. He looked away from Gray and Guildarts for a moment as he called out orders to retreat.
Gray used the other's multitasking to his advantage. He froze his arm using his magic and was just a centimeter away from blasting his opponent to the other dimension when his enemy jumped several paces backwards, completely dodging a battle ending blow.
"Dammit!" Gray swore, defrosting his arm and heading back to Guildarts.
The opponents detached themselves from the Fairy Tail members and ran to the other side of the clearing, opposite of where Laxus had fallen, while the Fairy Tail members regrouped behind a stumbling Natsu. Wendy began to make a protective barrier around all of them and healed Natsu's wounds at the same time while Lucy and Happy stood guard and watch over Natsu and the enemies.
"What are they doing?" Elfman asked, confused about the blue color coming from the middle of their circle.
"Zero Magic Level 5, Crystal Lock!"
Tendrils of sparkling blue magic came flowing through the air at a very fast pace to their side of the field and didn't slow down in the slightest when it came closer. "We'll be fine," Wendy said, confident in her shield. Frankly, the magic went straight through it. Screams erupted from the mages, terrified of the magic that had just passed through a very high level defensive field spell.
"What's it going?" Lucy asked, her voice shaking as she looked at the dark magic in the sky collect into a circle.
And, at a speed that no one could counteract, it shot into the standing body of Natsu. Gasps were, of course, heard when Natsu fell straight onto his back.
"What the Tartarus!" Lucy yelled as she ran to Natsu's unmoving form. "What kind of magic does this?!" Her voice became frantic and she stumbled over a rock on her way to his body.
"Lucy, get away!" Wendy yelled as she used her wind magic against Lucy. Lucy's legs were moving in a running motion but she was going nowhere.
"Let me go, Wendy!" Lucy yelled. "We need to help him!"
Gray stood behind Wendy and set a hand on her shoulder. "We have no idea what that is, Lucy. We can't help him."
Erza was the one to go against the wind and make her way to the kneeling Lucy. "Lisanna and a few others are already going to Porlysica. The magic could possibly infect your body as well. We're taking no chances." Erza said in Lucy's ear.
"But we need to help him..." Tears began to form in Lucy's brown eyes as she looked up to Erza.
"We're in the middle of a battlefield. We can't focus on an injured and let them ambush us from the behind."
A tear escaped but Lucy reluctantly stood up and took Erza's outstretched hand.
Natsu laying on the ground paralyzed was a very surprising thing to see. He was generally always running around the guildhall, out on a quest, eating an insurmountable amount of food, or sleeping in very odd positions. But leaving him there was the worst. It was a very bad idea. An idiotic one but what should you do? Be smart and play it safe or move them, possibly furthering the poison in the body, killing them?
The other guild seemed to be looking curiously at Natsu, as expecting something, anything and yes, of course, something happened.
Natsu's body began to glow a purple hue and levitate over the ground. And they all watched in amazement as a crystal-like formation began to appear on Natsu's boots. It became thicker and then moved a few inches to his calf muscle.
They all knew what was happening. It was no question.
"Please no, please no," Lucy prayed.
Natsu's eyes were open and he was in a whole lot of pain at the legs down. He looked around with a quick glance at his friends in front of him and then looked down at his toes. It was crawling up his ankles, slowly making its sweet way towards his heart and soul. Just patiently climbing, destroying everything.
His fire magic was not working. The crystal was much stronger than that. It was almost like it was smiling at him, happy at taking another.
"E-Everyone?" Natsu asked, a tear first coming from his left eye. "I'm so sorry for everything."
All was quiet in the clearing except for Natsu's little speech. The blue and purple crystal had now reached his knees and was still going strong.
"I'll definitely see ya later, guys." The purple now encased the entirety of his tan legs and white joggers.
"I'm not gonna die," Natsu declared as the crystal met his abdomen. "You'll remember me, right?"
"It's just alright. It'll be fine." Natsu's tears fell down his cheeks and hit the pitiful crystal at his shoulders.
"Because if you just remember, I won't die!" The crystal started to slow down now at chin and Natsu now had a disturbed cringe on his face.
"Dammit, Mavis!" Natsu whimpered. His tears kept running down his face at an immense pace as the crystal was at his chin. "I love you a-."
...
...
...
The Fairy Tail members were in shock, Team Natsu were on their knees, and everyone had tears running down on their cheeks as they saw the man in the crystal.
Natsu's appearance was interesting, to say the least. Some parts of his body, such as his arms, legs, and head were covered with red scarlet scales. He had four scars on his body; one on the right side of his neck, one crisscrossed scar on the right side of his abdomen, one on the right side of his cheek, and the newest one was just below his left eye.
His precious white, scaly scarf was now torn and frayed at the ends, courtesy of years of wear. This outfit was cut, splattered with blood but still remained its original blue color while his white pants were chopped off at the tied bottoms and had numerous holes running through it. His shoes had miraculously stayed on and survived the fight though. Through the holes of his jacket was what seemed to be a black tattoo.
He was crying. His pain was clearly shown on his face with the numerous tears adorning on it.
"We just have to bring him back to base!" The Devil's Hand members hushed.
During this outburst of yelling, screaming, and tears, Laxus awakened from unconsciousness at that moment. Laxus looked up in front of him and saw that statue. He blinked furiously, as if he had something in his eye. Something you'd call a tear. Laxus shakily got up from the ground, breathing heavily and wobbled while he stared with fury so insurmountable that Erza losing her cake wouldn't compare in the slightest.
In that moment, Laxus yelled, "WE, ALL OF FAIRY TAIL, ARE A FAMILY. WE ALL NEVER GIVE IN. WE ARE ALL THE SAME. YOU CANNOT TAKE AWAY ONE OF US NOR THREE! YOU WILL NEVER TAKE OUR FAMILY AWAY! IF NATSU WAS IN ONE OF OUR SHOES, HE WOULD FIGHT TO BRING US BACK! WE NEED TO BEAT THESE PEOPLE FOR NATSU!"
"Nope," Haru, the white haired Lieutenant, said to his troops. "We already have accomplished a part of our mission. We need to take him back now."
Haru and the other dark mages started to stand up straight again, their eyes started flaming for war, while the Fairy Tailers did the same after hearing their inspiring speech from their Guildmaster. Laxus started to stare at the other mages and made a hand symbol.
"I will give you to the count of three to leave this place and never come back again. Magnolia is our town."
The Devil's Hand members stood their ground, what could a beaten up mage do to very large group of non-fatigued ones?
"One," the magical power around Laxus had started to grow very quickly.
The Devil's hand members charged behind the Lieutenant while the Fairy Tail members wiped their tears from their eyes and charged, with Erza leading the way.
"Two," the power was like Mavis herself came down to aid them in battle.
"For Natsu!" Erza, Gray, and Lucy all yelled louder than the rest.
"So we won't be punished!"
"Three," Laxus said with a pained smirk upon his face. "Time's up, I activate FAIRY LAW!"
A blinding white light above the clearing could now be seen by the people of Magnolia. The Devil's Hand members were now all unconscious on the ground with no memories of their bad deeds. As the massacre was now over, the Fairy Tail members walked to Natsu in the crystal. The mighty Titania, Queen of the Fairies, Gray, Absolute Zero, Guildarts, SS Mage, and Master Laxus were all crying. The guild would now be forever changed.
They slowly walked to the purple structure, no one leading the way. Erza was the first to fall to the ground, she was shaking uncontrollably as large droplets of clear liquid fell down her cheeks. The one who seems to be the strongest in the battle with emotions will always fall hard. They seem to never cry, but they do, they do it when they're alone. They do it on the inside, their body betraying them the access to tears.
Erza started to punch and it the ground without her gauntlets equipped on her arms. She yelled out in physical and emotional pain, something other guild members didn't expect her to do, and kept sobbing.
She looked up, her tears glowing in the summer sun, and choked out, "N-Natsu, didn't you s-say you were not going to a-allow me to c-c-cry again! Look what you're d-d-doing right now!"
The others looked at her, themselves in tears.
Gray was the second one to break down. "M-Mavis..." He didn't want to let tears fall out of his eyes, but they did. He looked through his glassy, dark blue eyes and squinted at the pillar of purple. He sobbed, "F-Flame-brain, can you h-hear us? D-Don't die, Natsu, we'll get you out!" Although he talked some big words about his future, he did nothing except sit on his knees and cry. He was still in denial about what just happened. "W-Why? W-We were just s-supposed to be rivals? Friends?" Gray questioned himself over and over. What had he done to deserve this?
Lucy had been standing still the entire time her teammates spoke of their grief. "N-Natsu, Natsu's dead? H-He's dead? H-He, He can't be dead? Right? Right, Happy?" Lucy asked out loud to herself and Happy as tears overflowed down her pale cheeks.
Happy's black eyes were darkened. His face shown with grim and he seemed completely out of it. He made no response at to tell Lucy that he'd heard her.
Lucy slowly walked measured steps to Natsu's crystal and she kept changing the angle of her chin to keep eye contact with Natsu's seemingly stale stature.
"Natsu, please don't leave Happy and me." was what came out Lucy's mouth as she put her hand up to the crystal.
"N-Natsu?" Happy peeped.
Lisanna grabbed a hold of Elfman's body as she slid down his heavily muscled leg. She burst out in tears as she returned out of her Transformation Magic to her normal clothing. "The father is supposed to protect the child and mother!" She yelled in anguish.
Guildarts broke the ground underneath him as he began screaming. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, NATSU? GET UP AND-!" Guildarts yelled.
Lucy's nerves in her ears reset. She only heard ringing in her ears. Seconds passed and it didn't seem to get better. She tried to dig her nails into the crystal and she broke eye contact with Natsu to see the damage. There was not even a sign that there was a hand there in the first place. She then teared her chocolate colored eyes back up to Natsu's face and subconsciously muttered, "N-No. Please, no."
"C-Calm down," Laxus said with reddened eyes as he looked at the group of people in front of him. "C-Calm down. We have to get him back to the guild and get the Magic Council Police here."
Gray looked up from the ground and glared at his Guildmaster. "H-How are we supposed to calm down? Natsu's dead for all we know!"
"GRAY, SHUT UP!" Laxus snapped. "J-Just shut up. We have to get going. Natsu's not going to want to stay in this stupid clearing forever. He's going to want to be in the Guild Hall, at home."
Gray and the others stopped their sobbing.
"S-Stay positive, guys," Laxus provided.
Erza pushed herself to her feet using her hands and punched herself in the cheek. She glared at her fellow comrades around her.
"Happy, Carla, Lily, Gajeel, Gray, and I will carry him," Erza ordered.
There was no room for discussion. They brought him back to the guild and plopped him by his favorite seat. Laxus gave the Fairy Tailers an inspiring speech again and they all had a party getting ready to find a cure for the curse. They never did find it after years of searching. Quickly though, the guild changed. The burning flameball called Natsu wasn't there anymore, the light of the guild wasn't there anymore. They never really looked at Natsu, they couldn't bear to look at his eyes and see what emotions shone in them, fear, hatred, maybe even disappointment.
The Fairy Tailers never went to the clearing again and almost everyone in the battle had nightmares about Natsu going full-on E.N.D. on them because they couldn't save them. Many people stayed in their seats the entire work day and only the newer members went out to take jobs. There were no more brawls which broke the roof or funny Riding-On-A-Plank-Which-Is-On-A-Barrel parties. The guild was just empty. When someone told a joke, they soon were reminded of Natsu and quickly stopped. Natsu's closest friends all left to search for an unsealer for the spell but they weren't seen again.
All this time though, Natsu was waiting, he could see but couldn't move his eyes, he could hear but not smell nor breathe, his one breath lasted a few thousand years. Lucy and Happy disappeared a year after Natsu was sealed and the light in the guild had burned out, generations passed, nobody heard his story anymore and the guild disbanded in X1120. The people in the guild cared no more and sold him. Then the new owners sold him after, and after a few years and those owners sold him.
Natsu was sent to many owners; seen many things, seen much death, seen much happiness and sadness, but was unable to interact. Natsu changed when he saw it all, and now he became distant, thoughtful, intelligent, and sad. Things took a good turn when he was sent to a new owner, actually four new owners at a school named Hogwarts. He had heard of it many times because the only thing to pass the time was to listen.
Early 1000s
It was in a small ancient magic shop named "Fred's Antiques".
Four figures were entering the old shop. One had dark blonde hair with a red cloak showing off his muscles, another had black hair, green cloak and had cold eyes, and the other two were women, one with blonde hair and a plump figure with a golden dress, and the other had brownish black hair with a dark blue dress.
"Oh my, why would they have a person suck in this thing? It's cruel!" The one with the dark blue dress stated.
"Indeed it is very sad, Rowena, it looks like he was in a war when he was sealed," The man with the red cloak and dark blonde hair said.
The man with the black hair and green cloak closed in on the crystallized object with the man inside and put a hand up to it. He furrowed his eyebrows as he spoke. "Such a weird magical aura... it is as if he is made of magic itself!"
The blonde haired plump woman got closer to the purple structure and looked up at the man's face. She squinted as she looked at his onyx eyes. "A-Ah! Look Salazar, his eyes are twitching!"
The man in the green cloak with his hand on the crystal looked up. "I-Indeed they are," he stated. "H-How is this possible?"
He turned around and didn't pay attention to his coworkers who were messing around with a magical cuckoo clock on the wall.
"How much is this specimen?" Salazar said to Fred the salesman, who was wearing all black.
The golden cloaked blonde woman turned her face into one of rage and yelled out, "That is rude!" as she slapped Salazar.
"Don't hit me, Hufflepuff," Salazar seethed before he looked back to the store owner.
Fred the storekeeper looked at the woman and then back to the scary man in front of him. "Uhhh... He is very old. We have had him in the shop for a few centuries and the owner before that said he had him for a few centuries too… maybe 100 galleons."
The raven haired woman who was looking at the cuckoo clock with the blonde haired man placed a small tweety bird onto the glass counter and looked over her shoulder. "I know what we can do with him." She smirked.
"Experiment on him?" Salazar looked over his own shoulder and met her eyes.
She scoffed. "No, Salazar. I really don't understand where you get all these so called 'ideas' of yours come from."
"You want to understand him too, don't you, Ravenclaw?" Salazar stated.
She shook her head in disapproval.
"I won't let you experiment on him," Godric said, opening the door of the cuckoo clock once more. "Helga wouldn't let you do so either."
"That's right," Helga agreed, her cheeks puffed out in anticipation as she looked up at Salazar.
Fred just stood there awkwardly. "Sooo-uh do you want to buy it?" He asked.
Salazar gave one last glare at his colleagues before he took out his wallet and threw the galleons into the storekeeper's hands.
"Yay, I got a new friend!" Helga yelled in triumph with her arms spread out like an eagle in the store.
Salazar scoffed before saying, "Whatever. We have to leave and this guy just took all of our money," he then gestured to Fred, "So we cannot buy anything else today."
"Do you need help carrying him?" Fred hesitantly asked.
The four looked to themselves and then to Fred. Godric answered, "No, we got it all right."
Natsu's crystal floated through the air, out the door, and onto a carriage.
'N-Not a carraige, NO! m-M-motIoN SiCKneSS!'
At Hogwarts in the Great Hall
"Okay, just set him down right there," Godric said while pointing to the ground in front of the lectern in the Great Hall.
"Okay let's start," Rowena suggested.
They agreed by nodding their heads.
The four then put their hands on the purple-ish blue stone. They concentrated their magic to run parallel with each other's and soon their thoughts were aligned.
Godric was the one to instigate the conversation between the ancient Mage and the current day wizard by saying two words. 'Who're you?'
It was more than just a question. This question changed the world.
'Who're you?' was the thought that ran through his mind. He was completely disoriented when these wizards first bought him, brought him, and decided to put their hands on his crystal.
'E-eh Hello? M-my name is Natsu Dragneel and I have been stuck in this lacrima for maybe 3,000 years or so. H-How does this thing work? Oh yeah, I have been able to hear and see but not move in this lacrima. Oh Mavis... I remind myself of Zeref who was basically alone for centuries.' Natsu hadn't spoken to anyone in millenniums, his thoughts were snapped and stitched back together as he spoke (thought) back to the people.
The dull ache in his heart began to push against his chest.
'I w-want out. I want out. I just want the pain to stop.' Natsu's thoughts were pushed into the four founder's minds.
'T-Three,' Salazar thought to Natsu. 'Three thousand years? How could there have been such an amazing preserving magic that far back?'
There was no response to his question.
'We're here to help you,' Helga thought to Natsu, calmly distressing the situation. 'I'm Helga Hufflepuff. Just Helga is fine, Mr. Dragneel.'
'Rowena Ravenclaw, leader of the Ravenclaw house.'
Salazar pushed his hands harder into the crystal and clocked eyes with Natsu. 'Salazar Slytherin.'
Rowena looked at Salazar out of the corner of her eye as she introduced herself.
The man wearing the red cloak who had blond hair smiled a glee smile as he introduced himself as Godric Gryffindor.
'I-Is there some way for you to get me out?' Natsu asked with his heart beating furiously in his chest, the pain increased.
'There's always an answer to everything, Mr. Dragneel.' Rowena told him.
Godric looked to Rowena and smirked as he looked up at the crystal. 'It'd be a very interesting thing to talk about, unsealing an ancient man...'
Salazar blinked. 'I'd want to experiment on him, see how this crystal messed with his body and-'
'WHY WOULD YOU EXPERIMENT ON HIM?! YOU'D PROBABLY KILL HIM! HE OBVIOUSLY NEEDS HELP!' Helga yelled, her voice echoing throughout the minds of the four.
'I may just die from you yelling,' Natsu stated to the people sharing his thoughts.
Rowena made a mental check list of things in her head as she telepathically asked Natsu, 'What's with those scales and scars? You were in a war, weren't you?'
'S-Stuff h-happened...'
'What an adventurous life,' Godric stated.
'It's so boring in here, I haven't eaten anything in three-thousand years. This is probably worse than Zeref when he was immortal,' Natsu stated thinking it was not of importance.
'Immortality?!' Salazar asked.
'M-My brother, Zeref, got cursed by Ankhseram, the God of Life and Death, after he brought me back to life using Dark Magic. I became a demon with my life force connected to a book. I was then brought to a Fire Dragon and raised by him.'
'A dragon? You were raised by a dragon?'
'His name was Igneel. He taught me how to read and write and everything.'
Rowena chimed in, 'By any chance do you know Draconian?'
'Of course I do. That's the first thing I learned. I then was taught Fiorian and it messed up my spelling a bit, just a bit, just a tiiinnny, tinnyyy bit.'
'Do you think you'd be able to teach?'
'Teach what? To who?'
'Draconian, to students.'
Natsu immediately answered. 'I can do anything if I try hard enough.'
Salazar mentally sighed and forgot about their thoughts being parallel. 'We got another stupid Godric.'
'What'd you say!' Godric yelled with his telepathy connecting to Salazar.
'I said that you were stupid,' Salazar deadpanned and smirked at the same time.
'Oh you...-!' Godric seethed.
Rowena took both her hands off the crystal and slammed the two men's heads onto the dense, cold crystal. "STOP IT, YOU'RE BOTH BEHAVING LIKE LITTLE CHILDREN!"
Salazar rubbed a growing red spot on his forehead with one hand as he repositioned his green cloak on his back with the other. "Don't you dare touch me again," He said as he looked at Rowena.
"I did nothing wrong!" Godric yelled out in defense for his actions.
Natsu looked in the corner of his paralyzed eyes and saw the scene. Their bodies soon morphed into ones that he knew so well. They were exactly like his old team. Rowena was Erza, Helga was a more happy Lucy, Salazar was Gray, and Godric was Natsu. Natsu tried to smile but his mouth was fixed in the position of horror.
'I'm not going to intervene and destroy their happiness.'
Rowena put her hands up in an 'I surrender position' as she said, "We have other problems to attend to now. How do we get him out?"
Salazar tapped his foot on the ground a few times and held his chin in his hand, thinking. "A soul extraction," Salazar stated out loud.
"Brilliant," Rowena agreed.
"I'll do it!" Helga said.
"So we're doin' it then," Godric muttered underneath his breath, sad that his rival thought of a solution to a problem not only before him but that Rowena said that it was quote on quote brilliant.
They walked a few feet away from the lacrima and then Rowena took a deep breath.
Godric decided to take the lead and said, "Pull out your wands, it'll be on three."
Natsu wanted to furrow his eyebrows at the wizards and tried to not question their logic. He had never actually seen a soul extraction before.
They all took out their wands. "One, two, three!"
Natsu felt like he was being pulled out of his body, which he was. There was a faded slightly figure with a pink head with golden horns, reptilian gold eyes, sharp canines, crimson scales all over his body, with a scaly scarf, black one sleeved shirt with gold outlines with a red Fairy Tail symbol on it, and white pants with combat boots emerging from the lacrima. He looked up, stretched, and started to jump around, yelling cheerily.
"I'm out. I'M OUT! HAHAHA!" Natsu said with tears forming in his eyes. "I BEAT YOU!"
"Salazar, is this really his soul...? It's dragon and demon-like but also... human?" Rowena said, baffled.
"He did say he was raised by a dragon and turned into a demon but was also human once so it makes sense… he is very interesting," Salazar responded as he watched Natsu kiss the ground in glee.
"Don't ever put me in another moving vehicle again! I was about to die ya'know!" Natsu fervently said. "Motion sickness is the worst!"
Rowena added another thing into the checklist of her head.
"You have work tomorrow." Rowena brought her hands around her hips and glared at Natsu. "Don't dilly dally or mess around. Hogwarts has to be clean for when the students come."
Natsu said, "Aye, sir!" and saluted out of habit, he noticed Godric sweatdropping behind her shoulder.
Helga walked up to the tall form of Natsu and she poked at his stomach. "Ya'know, you'd be scary for some of the children. You should probably change how you look. We have a few medicines for that if you need them."
Natsu blinked and thought back to three thousand years ago. "I've got it all settled, Helga," Natsu stated. "I know Transformation magic."
They furrowed their eyebrows as the man who just came out of the crystal was enveloped by a purple cloud of smoke and appeared to be akin to a normal human. His onyx eyes were the first things to be seen out of the cloud.
THIS IS LIKE THE 38TH TIME I'VE REDONE THIS CHAPTER! IT'S SO MUCH BETTER NOW!
How is that for a first chapter? I still think that it is worse than the other chapters and it would only take a few minutes to read the next. (I wrote this remark about a half a year ago when I had something akin to three chapters, it now takes something close to an hour to read)
