Hello again! Chapter two has arrived, and it's way longer and has more laughs than the first. I updated pretty fast, guess I was right about motivation. I know the first part was boring, but you'll absolutely LOVE this part, especially the further you get to the end... I even added plenty of little GaLe moments for you dearies who are fans. I'm hoping they'll earn me brownie-points. Hee hee.
Thanks to YessCristopher for being the first reviewer! This one's for you. Enjoy~!
The Legendary Dragon's Key
Chapter 2
The Dragon's Keep
The next morning, around dawn, the group found themselves gathered outside of Fairy Tail. There was a huge magical vehicle parked in the road, almost bus sized; Macao had rented the biggest and fastest one he could find. It could certainly fit twelve people and an exceed, and still go really fast with no problem.
"Alright, load the stuff up in the back, then climb in. We gotta get moving." Macao called.
"Why so early?" Elfman complained, rubbing his eye as he yawned. "Getting little sleep doesn't help a man."
"If we want to arrive to Crocus by nightfall, we gotta get going right about now." The elder man answered simply.
"Nightfall?!" Jet screeched. That was about twelve hours from now.
"Do you know how far Crocus is? That's a long drive ahead of us, it'll take at least two days!" Droy whined.
"I ain't riding in that contraption for days! Hell no." Gajeel growled, crossing his studded arms stubbornly. Levy sighed next to him, rolling her eyes at his childishness.
Macao just grinned at his companions. "Ah, but with the driver I got we'll be there by sundown. No problem."
"Who is driving? Did you hire someone?" Wendy asked, looking around but she only found the familiar faces of her fellow guild members. Except for...
"Alright everyone! Climb aboard, we have a schedule to keep!" An authoritative voice commanded from the front seat of the vehicle. Everyone visibly paled.
"Oh definitely hell no!" Gajeel tried to make a break for it, but was grabbed by the arms and dragged on by Macao and Levy both. The rest of group quickly followed suit and crammed into the car, and the door was shut before Gajeel could attempt to bolt again.
He would've kept arguing with this, vehemently, had his motion sickness not kicked in the moment Erza floored it. Hard.
Erza had been assigned as the designated driver; not just because she had amazing control of the vehicle as it went at light-speed, but because she could get the car to go at light-speed. That, and she was the only one with enough magical energy to sustain it.
Macao sat up at the front of the car with her, giving directions as needed. Inside Mira, Lisanna and Elfman sat in the front passenger seats. Behind them were Gray and Wendy, with Juvia squeezed between them and Charle in Wendy's lap. The very back of the car had two long seats that faced each other. Jet and Droy sat on one, while Levy and Gajeel took the other.
Gajeel seemed to be immune to Wendy's Troia spell after only two hours, and Jet and Droy were biting handkerchiefs in jealousy as they watched the iron dragon slayer's head be placed in the Levy's lap. Gajeel wanted so badly to tease them for it, but if he opened his mouth he'd surely puke his breakfast.
There was only two stops made on the journey. The first stop was at a small village around noon so that the travelers could stretch and eat, as well as take care of some potty breaks. The second was actually unplanned, it was an emergency pull-over because someone couldn't hold in his lunch when Erza was driving through the rocky mountain pass...
Needless to say, it was after sundown by the time they finally sped through the gates of Crocus, the beautiful Flower Blooming Capital of Fiore.
"Alright! Very nice job, Erza. We've made great time." Macao said, grinning as he looked around the amazing city. Erza was slumped down in her seat still, exhausted from how much magical energy she used to fuel the vehicle. But she still managed a shaky thumbs up in response.
"Oh, finally!" Gajeel yelled as he staggered from the car, holding his stomach and trying to stop dry-heaving. Never again would he ride in a car... Never. Again.
Macao quickly rounded up his wandering-eyed companions. "Once Erza is feeling up to it, we'll quickly grab a bite to eat and start heading for the mountains."
"Food!" Droy cheered.
"I'm really hungry myself, it's not manly to skip meals." Elfman said, rubbing his growling stomach.
"There's a good-looking restaurant right over there, we won't have to go far into the city-" Levy pointed, but everyone was already running past her for the mouth-watering smells of the tall building. "H-Hey! Wait for me!"
After devouring their fill of food, and scaring the many staff and patrons of the restaurant, the Fairy Tail members paid their bill. They quickly left before Gajeel could get into a fight with the waiter over 'proper manners'.
"Well the guy was looming over me and annoying the shit out of me! Trying to get me to use a napkin and my fork and knife... What do I look like, some friggin' uptight duke or something?" The dragon slayer snarled as he stomped ahead of the group, Levy struggling to keep up.
"And he gave you that one look when you asked if they had any iron." Gray snickered, finding the whole situation funny. Elfman was laughing outright without restraint.
"Shut up! I was two seconds away from knockin' his block off his high and mighty self."
"Alright, alright." Macao said sternly. "That fiasco put us further behind schedule. Just load into the car and lets get going."
"Why do you want to get there tonight, Macao? Why not let us rest overnight here and wait until morning?" Lisanna asked, tilting her head curiously.
"Because the dragon will most likely be sleeping when we arrive. A sleeping target is an easier target to take by surprise." Macao said it like it was the most obvious thing in the world. The group sweatdropped. That was his plan?
"Aren't dragons nocturnal?" Jet asked.
"W-Well some can be..." Wendy chimed in. "But I think it depends on the dragon itself."
"If it's a fire dragon like the rumors say, then he may be a day dragon. He'd want to take in the sun and heat." Everyone nodded, agreeing with Gajeel. "So he just may be asleep when we find him."
"See? I told you! I got it all figured out!" Macao laughed confidently.
Do you really? Everyone wondered privately in thought as they arrived back to the car.
"Not again..." Gajeel growled as he was once again dragged into the moving death-trap. Then when everyone was seated - and barely buckled in - Erza slammed on the pedal, jerking the car into breakneck speeds within seconds as they drove out of the city.
"We're going to take the trail into the mountains, after about an hour we'll reach the end and we'll have to continue on foot. The castle is supposedly on the tallest peak right around here." Macao directed as he circled an area on the map with his finger. Erza nodded at his orders, pushing more energy into the car to make it go faster.
They had to slow down when they reached the trail, it was full of many twists and sharp turns that if not made correctly would send you over the edge. True to Macao's word, the trail ended at a large observation deck that overlooked the mountains, the ocean could be seen in the distance.
"So now what?" Gray asked, looking around and seeing no hiking trails.
"We grab our stuff and start climbing." Macao said simply as he opened the back of the magic vehicle so everyone could grab their stuff. They just looked at him like he was crazy.
"Climbing where, exactly?" Mira asked hesitantly, asking what everyone was wondering.
Macao pointed to the edge of the deck. "There is a ledge there that we'll use to shimmy to another cliff. From there, it's just a bit of a hike and then a quick climb to a forested mountain, that's where the castle is supposed to be."
"How do you know all this, old man?" Gray demanded. "You said everyone who comes here always ends up with memory loss. How can you possibly know where you're going when this is supposed to be a legend?"
Macao paused, and then turned to face his comrades. He lifted his hand and scratched the back of his hand awkwardly.
"Oh... Did I forget to mention this same castle was part of a mission request some time ago?" Everyone fell over at that little piece of forgotten information.
"YES!" They shouted in unison. Macao shrank under their anger.
"Yeah... Heh, funny thing. See, a while back there was a request for a mage to come and deal with a beast that was inhabiting this castle. The creature came down from the mountain every night and terrorized this village south of here; stole and ransacked their fish supplies, and left claw-marks in their houses and shops. Frightened a lot of people, though no one ever saw what it looked like.
"So I decided I was going to take the mission, but before I could get it approved the one who sent it pulled it back. Apparently the monster just left, he stopped coming to the village so they assumed he moved on to some other location. But I remember the directions to the castle."
"Isn't there a road that leads to it then? There had to have been at one point in time." Wendy piped up.
Macao nodded. "Oh there's a road, but we can't just use it to waltz right up to the castle and come knockin' on the door. The dragon'll see us from a mile away!"
"So we have to go the ridiculous route just in case this 'dragon' is not sleeping like you plan for it to be. Are you just making this up as you go along?!" Gray exclaimed, pointing accusingly at Macao. He just blinked innocently for a minute.
"Maybe..."
SLAM!
Macao blinked again as he watched his friends collapse to the ground in exasperation.
S/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/H\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\B
"Are we there yet?" Elfman asked, for the third time in the last twenty minutes.
"Shut up, Elfman!" Gray shouted, having had enough of that question already. "We're lost, I tell you!"
"We are not lost! You saw the castle yourself, we're heading straight got it." Macao argued.
"I saw the tip of a tower poking out from the treeline, that could be any sort of building." Gray huffed, crossing his arms stubbornly.
Lisanna looked around the forest, her eyes filled with worry as she began to believe they were lost as well. "But we saw it several hours ago... You'd think we'd have found it by now."
"Yes, it has been a while. I think we might have made a wrong turn somewhere." Mira agreed calmly.
Macao sighed heavily. "We've been going straight this whole time. We couldn't have made a wrong turn." He pointed out.
"My feet hurt!" Droy whined, dragging his sore and exhausted body at the back of the group. He had barely survived the climbing, being as heavy-set as he was, to ask him to keep hiking like this would be too much.
It was now nearing midnight, and they were all growing weary and tired from their long journey. Macao was beginning to falter in his own hope that they'd find anything, he'd been thinking maybe they should camp for the night, and just continue on in the morning. Then if they still didn't find anything, just head back home in defeat...
Rooooaaaaaarrrrrr
Everyone stilled. No one breathed as they listened to the sound carry over the mountain and echo in the distance. The scary part was though... it sounded no close...
"W-What was that?" Jet asked shakily.
"There's no mistaking that sound. It's a dragon, all right." Gajeel answered, his red eyes narrowed and scanning the surrounding area.
Gray raised a brow, scoffing, "Dude any creature can roar and sound like something else entirely. Could be a wyvern, they're dragon-like, right?"
"Either way!" Droy cried, "Wyverns are not the kind of creature you want to run into!" He exclaimed shivering in fear along with Jet.
"Especially at night, when it's so dark and easy to blend in with the environment." Mira added, not really helping the situation as the cowards wailed in horror.
"Shut up, you two! The beast might hear us!" Charle hissed, hanging onto Wendy's shoulder.
Gray ignored everyone's obvious tension, strolling forward to the front without fear. "Pfft... Until I see it I won't believe it's a dragon."
"Well ye of little faith... Look straight ahead." Gajeel said, jabbing his thumb in the direction opposite where the noise had come from.
Everyone followed his suggestion, slowly turning to look straight into the darkness before them. As everyone quieted they all realized that there was a rumbling sound coming from the blackness... A growling that seemed to be growing louder as something approached.
Then before anyone could react to the sounds, something emerged from the darkness.
With blurring speed a large dragon flew into the clearing, an earth-shaking roar escaping him as he landed yards away, glaring at the intruding party on his land.
The dragon was actually smaller than expected. Compared to Metalicana or Grandeeney, his was a bit of a pipsqueak. He was probably a young dragon, and hadn't reached his full growth yet. But that didn't mean he wasn't powerful and deadly, he was still ten times bigger than the humans before him.
Dark crimson scales covered the majority of his body; with the exception of under his tail, chin, belly and the inner portions of his legs which were a deep salmon pink. There was a noticeable pale scar running from the crimson into the pink of the right side of his neck. From the back of his neck, all along his spine to the end of his tail, black ridges rose from his back.
Large bat-like wings spread wide in a dominant manner, the undersides also salmon in color. His head was triangular in shape, mostly because of the sharp horns atop his head and above his nose, and on the sides of his face were three crimson spikes that were connected by salmon webbing. As he slowly stomped towards them, his long black claws dug into the earth, leaving deep craters in their wake.
Smoke escaped his flaring nostrils, while pitch-black eyes expressed a single warning - Turn back now or die.
"Holy shit there really is a dragon!" Gray screamed, his eyes almost bugging out of his head as he reared backwards in shock.
"Told you." Gajeel said calmly, not afraid of the majestic creature that clearly intended to do harm to them if they didn't leave.
"I knew it!" Macao grinned, pumping his fist in the air in victory of being right.
"Now's not the time for admiring the scenery and wildlife!" Levy cried, cowering behind Gajeel who was just staring intently at the real living dragon.
"Yes, we must face this creature. If he is here, then there really is a treasure to be found." Erza stepped forward, her armor magically re-quipping into Flame Empress. She gripped her sword tightly, fully prepared for anything the dragon attempted.
The dragon growled at the mention of treasure, and stared down at Erza with narrowed black eyes, seeing her transformation as a challenge. He crouched low, snarling viciously, his tail raising into the air poised to smack down anyone who made a move.
"Okay, Gajeel... You, Wendy and Erza stay and distract the dragon. You slayers can take it, I'm sure." Macao whispered, and the iron slayer nodded. Wendy appeared nervous and fidgeted, she'd never fought an actual dragon before, and she didn't really want to hurt it.
"Mira, you and Elfman stay behind as well, in case they need help. The rest of us, when I give the signal, we go around it and keep looking for the castle. It must be nearby if the dragon showed up." Mira and Elfman shook their heads in affirmation to their orders.
The dragon had enough of waiting for someone to make a move. He appeared to inhale a deep breath as he reared his head back and then let loose a loud roar as fire burst from his throat towards the humans.
Erza jumped forward, bringing her sword forth and making a vertical slash as she met the flames head on. The sword parted the fire, sending it into two directions away from the group behind her. The dragon's eyes widened slightly at the move, but then they narrowed again as he poured more strength into his roar.
Her blade began to glow red as fire collected around it, and when the flames stopped rushing towards her Erza quickly attacked with a Flame Slash, aiming for the dragon's head. The beast simply ducked, bringing his tail up to swat her away like a fly. She blocked him, but couldn't avoid the clawed hand that followed.
Gajeel and Wendy then took that moment to enter the fray, both aiming their own Dragon Roars at the volatile creature.
With the best thoroughly distracted by three opponents, Macao looked to the leftover guild members. "Now! Let's go!"
Not needing to be told twice, everyone but Elfman and Mira took off in a run, curving around the battle taking place in the small clearing. They disappeared into the trees, leaving them behind in a trail of dust.
S/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/H\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\B
Macao, Gray, Juvia, Lisanna, Jet, Droy, and Levy were running as fast as they could to put distance between themselves and the dragon behind them. They all had complete confidence in their comrades, they just hoped they could overcome an actual dragon; one of the most dangerous and deadly beasts on Earthland...
With two dragon slayers, their odds were pretty good, right?
"I sure hope Mira-nee and Elf-nii will be okay. Erza, Gajeel and Wendy too." Lisanna said with obvious worry as they ran.
Levy smiled, looking over to the take-over mage. "Don't worry, Gajeel won't be taken down that easily, Erza neither. They'll all be just fine."
"That dragon sure was tiny though, I thought they were supposed to be huge. Like, bigger-than-the-royal-castle huge." Gray commented.
"Juvia noticed that as well."
"Perhaps he's just a kid, dragons don't reach full maturity for quite a few years, I heard. We'll ask Gajeel later." Macao said as they ducked through trees and bushes.
"If he's young, they stand a better chance than they would against a fully grown one." Levy agreed.
"Look! Up ahead!" Juvia pointed, and they noticed a parting in the trees. A stone wall was visible in the opening.
"The castle! We're almost there, keep running." Macao encouraged, excitement tingling through his veins. The legend that he had been thinking about for weeks was becoming a reality right before his very eyes...
They emerged from the trees, and stopped to look up in awe at the small but cozy-looking castle that sat peacefully overlooking the mountains. The stone walls were covered in ivy that crawled all the way up to the machicolations that bordered the square building. It had four corner towers, and one huge circular tower in the center with a pinnacle.
The grounds around it were lush with green grass, and many finely trimmed hedges lining the walls. There was an array of colorful flowers sprouting from the ground, moving gently in the blowing winds.
"This place must be enchanted, look how well kept these plants are. Unless the dragon does gardening in his spare time..." Lisanna mumbled as her brows furrowed in confusion. It didn't feel like any magic was being conjured, though. Strange...
"Lets head inside. Be ready for anything, guys, there could be traps inside." Macao said, heading for the large wooden double doors in the center of the front wall. Not bothering to knock, he pulled open a door and held it open for his companions to enter ahead of him.
So far so good, no traps were going off. No giant rock was rolling down the stairs. No scythe swinging down to cut them in half.
The group wandered into the castle foyer, each person looking around with either curiosity or scrutiny. There was a grand central staircase that led to the second floor, and two hallways on opposite sides of the room that led to different wings on the ground floor.
Macao cleared his throat, gaining everyone's attention.
"Okay... We'll split into three groups. Jet, Droy, you go with Levy and search the east wing. Juvia and Lisanna, take the west. Myself and Gray will search upstairs. If you find something, just call the rest of us. This place isn't so big, we should hear you if you shout loud enough. And if you don't find anything in your area, head on upstairs and help the two of us search up there."
They nodded at their instructions, splitting with their assigned partners.
"Aww! Juvia wanted to go with Gray-sama!" Juvia cried as she was pulled down the west hallway by Lisanna. Team Shadowgear started down the east hall, with Jet and Droy hanging close to Levy, shaking in their boots.
Macao and Gray headed up the central stairs. Both men were looking around, trying to detect anything suspicious or dangerous but... The place looked completely harmless. No cobwebs were hanging from the ceiling, no medieval weapons poised to spring from hidden mechanisms, not even a rat was seen scurrying across the floor.
The place looked... Normal, for the most part.
"This is weirding me out." Gray said lowly as they reached the top of the steps. "This place doesn't look like the kind that holds a valuable treasure. It looks like someone lives here."
"Impossible, no one has lived here for centuries except monsters. And who can possibly live here with a fire dragon on their front porch?" Macao asked with a raised brow.
"Perhaps someone who commands him?" Gray said in a 'duh' tone.
Macao paused, considering that. "I hadn't thought of that... We'll have to be on high alert now."
Gray nodded, and they continued their search, deciding to start in the west wing of the upper floor. Just like the rest of the castle they'd seen so far, it was in immaculate condition, no dust or dirt on the walls or floors. Macao wanted to believe that it was just some enchantment, but Gray suspected there was something wrong here...
"Wait." Macao suddenly said, putting a hand on Gray's naked (again) shoulder.
At the end of the hall they just turned into, there was a wooden door. It looked just the same as the many others, only difference was the mist coming from beneath it and swirling into the air.
"Steam? This... This must be the room with the treasure!" Macao said excitedly, speeding up his pace down the hall toward the door.
"Wait." Gray paused and looked over at him, confused. "How do you figure?"
Macao stopped as well and met his gaze, lifting his hand and rubbing his stubble-covered chin. "Well the steam must be from some fire-related booby-trap or obstacle that's protecting the item, don't you read treasure-hunting stories?"
"I don't read, really... Don't have time." Macao just stared blankly at the young man, before shaking his head and just pulling Gray along. He was getting so excited, Jewel symbols filling his eyes as he thought about the valuable treasure that lay beyond. He was so close he could taste it!
As they neared the door, they each felt the temperature rise as the steam drifted up and over their skin.
"You're right, there's heat coming from beyond here..." Gray murmured in awe.
"Well come on! Let's go get our reason for being here before the dragon realizes we slipped away!"
Then without waiting another second, Macao kicked in the door and they walked in, expecting to be fully ready for anything.
Except...
There were no booby traps...
"Eeeeek!"
But there was boobies.
"What the-? GYAH!" The older man had no time to form a full sentence before a wooden bucket collided with his face, sending him flying flat onto his back. "Oof!"
"Macao!"
"Kyaa! Pervert! What do you think you're doing?! How did you get in here?!" A woman shouted, rushing to the side of her stone sunken bathtub and yanking a towel up to cover her exposed femininity.
So this was a bathroom... Clearly not a treasure room.
Gray was taken aback by this new discovery, and the one in the tub. This woman was a beauty like no other; long flowing blonde hair, flushed peach-colored skin, round chocolate brown eyes that were wide in fright and embarrassment...
And full pink lips that were parted to inhale a deep breath and then...
"NATSUUU!" She wailed at the top of her lungs.
"H-Hey! Lady, take it easy-! ACK!" Gray's attempts at diffusing the panic failed miserably as a bottle of lotion smacked into his nose.
"Hyaaaah! Get out! Get out you perverts! NATSU!" The woman continued to scream, throwing whatever she could get her hand on while the other desperately clutched the towel to her nude body.
"There's a woman living here? Who could've possibly known that?" Macao groaned as he rubbed his head.
"As if the well-kept castle and garden weren't clue enough..." Gray bit out, moaning in agony.
"Natsu! Please! Help meeee!" She kept crying, backing away as far as she could from the two men in her private sanctuary. Her bathroom was supposed to be a place of peace and serenity, and now it had been tainted by the presence of strangers that wanted who knows what from her! And one of them was shirtless! They might be planning to violate her!
She began hysterically screaming the name 'Natsu' over and over, and soon the eldest of the three had a realization dawn on him.
"She must be calling that dragon!" Macao yelped, crawling to his friend. "We gotta get out of here!"
The raven-haired ice mage just groaned, rolling his head towards Macao. His nose was bleeding - but whether it was from a broken nose or from unexpectedly seeing a beautiful naked woman, neither was quite sure - heavily as it slid down the side of his face. "How's a dragon gonna get in here?"
"Let's not wait to find out! We gotta meet with the others and split. Forget the treasure-!" "LUCY!"
A foreign male voice roared the name as another person with spiky pink hair burst into the room, his fists flaming and his black eyes frantically searching the place. The blonde lady (now revealed to be 'Lucy') didn't hesitate to run towards him and hide behind his back, gripping her towel tightly around her to save the little dignity she had left.
"Natsu, help! These perverts broke in while I was bathing!" Lucy cried, peaking around the man called 'Natsu', tears sprouting at the corners of her big brown eyes.
Macao gulped, paling. "Oh shit..."
Gray grew pale as well. He held up a hand in protest. "Th-This isn't what it looks like!"
"You. Are. So. Dead!" The pink-haired man snarled, the fire on his fists intensifying as it started crawling up his arms. He took a threatening step towards the two. They backed away slightly, but readied themselves for a fight.
"Eep! Loke! Put me down!" Lucy suddenly shrieked, and all eyes turned towards her to see an orange-maned guy in an elegant suit holding her bridal-style. Azure, thin-framed sunglasses covered hazel eyes that gazed down adoringly at the woman in his arms, his lips wide in a smirk.
"Princess, now is no time to be arguing. I must get you to a safe place... unless you want to keep standing in a pretty, small towel. Which I personally wouldn't mind, my lady." He whispered seductively as he leaned in, Lucy scowled while blushing in humiliation and swiftly turned her head away from his advances.
"Put a sock in it, Loke!" Natsu growled as he turned his back on the intruders to face the suited man. "One more lecherous move on her and I'll fry you to a crisp, too!"
"Oh, I didn't know you could use such a big word like 'lecherous', Natsu." Loke said teasingly with a grin. He looked down at Lucy again, sighing wistfully. "My dear princess, why do you devote and waste your affections on such ignorance? I could treat you oh so much better..."
Already riled up from uninvited guests in his territory, not to mention men trying to take advantage of Lucy's vulnerability, Natsu jolted in offense. He then yelled, "That's it! Get your hands off my mate right now! I'm killing you once and for all!"
Mate?! Macao and Gray thought in unison as their eyes widened at the strange twist in the situation. The good news is they appeared to be completely forgotten now...
"Nah, I think I'll hold onto her a little longer. She's so very soft..." The man did a daring move by nuzzling his cheek against Lucy's. Natsu stiffened.
Big mistake...
"Lucy... KICK!" With amazing flexibility the blonde woman thrust the leg against Loke's chest up and collided it with his head, her knee making direct contact with his face. Loke's head jerked at the smack, his eyes swirling in dizziness as his grip on his master loosened and slipped.
"Kyaa!" She screamed as she began descending to the hard, stone floor.
"Gotcha!" Natsu huffed as he swiftly caught her, scooping her up into his own arms while Loke collapsed to the ground. His unconscious form vanished in a cloud of smoke, disappearing to who-knows-where.
"Nice kick, Luce." Natsu grinned, holding his mate snuggly as he locked eyes with her. Lucy smiled back at him, blushing from the compliment now, feeling a little proud herself.
As the two seemed to be sharing some sort of private moment, the two forgotten men had been slowly side-stepping against the wall on their way to the exit. When they were close enough, they decided to risk it all now that the pyromaniac was distracted.
"Run for it!" Gray shouted, and the two Fairy Tail members bolted for the door. They managed to successfully escape the room before the spiky-haired man realized what was happening.
"O-Oi! Hey, get back here! I'm not through with you bastards yet!"
And so ends chapter two. Hope you enjoyed it! Now that you've seen Natsu and Lucy does this mean I get a reward? Like a review? Maybe, possibly, could be? Two planned chapter left, everyone!
See you next time! SoaringHellButterfly.
