Ice Demon and Fire Dragon Chp.2
Hey guys thanks to anyone who read my first chapter and especially to those who reviewed it, I'll try my best to maintain the quality of the chapters while posting as often as possible. I'll probably post for now every week and a half, but when summer comes round I'll upload the chapters much more often.
Final note, after my first few chapters of Ice Demon and Fire Dragon I'd like to try my chances at another Fairytail fanfic so ideas would be appreciated, if I like your ideas I'll use them and give you credit for the ideas and again thanks for the reviews I hope you continue to like my work.
The women began to stir from her sleep as she awoke she seen she was wearing a red jacket with gold trim around the edges, a white scaled pattern scarf around her neck and had a plain green blanket wrapped around her lower half both of which she didn't recognize when she started thinking aloud "was it all a dream….Gray, Lyon….Deliora" she then surveyed the room and saw a backpack that she didn't recognize either and that there was a fire near her. She looked around for someone to see why she was here, just then she heard loud heavy footsteps she turned to the entrance of the cave, a wyvern was making its way over to her as she tried to get up she could as her entire body felt paralyzed her gaze then returned to that of the creature she could see it with it gaping jaws making its way over to her and thought to herself "am I going to die here."
As she closed her eyes she prepared herself for death, then she heard a man's voice yell "Lightning Flame Dragon's Firing hammer" as she opened her eyes she saw the creature before engulfed by what looked like a dragons head made of flames surrounded by lightning, she couldn't believe the ferocity behind the attack, she felt the heat emanate from the orange and crimson flames something she had never really felt before so it was a strange feeling, not a bad or very good feeling it just made her feel safe. The women then directed her attention to the source of the attack and saw a young muscular man of average height with pink hair, as she looked at him she stared in awe at the sight of him wreathed in the mixture of lightning and flames.
Breathing out deeply Natsu deactivated lightning flame dragon mode and turned to face the women he ran over to her got down to eye level and apologised to her saying "sorry about that, I figured when you'd wake up you would be hungry so I went to look for food" the women seemed to gaze endlessly into this boys onyx eyes for seemed like an eternity until she was snapped out of her daze when he asked the women what her name was. She hesitated for a moment, she was about to tell him when he said to her "how about a deal, my name for yours" the women nodded in response but his offer caused her to giggle which in turn caused him to blush "my name is Natsu, Natsu Dragneel; I'm a wizard from Fairytail." The women smiled at hearing his exclamation at being from the guild she'd heard so much about "My name Ur, Ur Milkovich" she said in a gentle tone while giving him a smile. His thoughts then wondered "Ur where have I heard that name before?" His train of thought was then interrupted when she asked "If you wouldn't mind could you answer some question of mine?" with a soft tone in her voice similar to that of Erza's when she's in a good mood as rare as that is "sure fire away I have some I wanted to ask you as well" he said back to her with his toothy grin causing her to blush like a little school girl. Ur then went to ask Natsu a few questions all of which he answered with ease except for the last "why does my body feel numb?"
This caused Natsu to look away out of embarrassment and he didn't want her to see his red face "well w-when I found you in the ice after I melted it your heart wasn't beating so I…I...I used my lightning magic to restart you heart" Natsu replied stuttering badly her eyes stared at him before she answered "see anything you liked?" Ur replied sarcastically not expecting to hear his next words "y-yeah" he replied bashfully, this caused Ur to get all flustered a caused her cheeks to go a rosy-pink colour similar to that of Natsu's hair. It was then Natsu thought to himself "wait, was I supposed to answer that?" His attention was then drawn to her flustered face and then magic face palmed himself in the well the face saying aloud "yup definitely not supposed to answer" seeing this she couldn't help but laugh this made Natsu happy as it seemed she wasn't mad at what he said earlier. It was then Natsu adopted a more serious tone to the situation, not scary serious like Erza but more like when he was getting a stern conversation from the master about property destruction, "alright I answered your questions now it you turn as Ur lay on the ground still unable to move her attention drew to Natsu "what is the last thing you remember before now?" he asked inquisitively "well the last thing I remember was battling the demon of destruction Deliora and sealing it away using iced shell" Natsu's eyes opened wide in astonishment after hearing that one sentence he knew who she was but knew it to be impossible. It was then he started laughing, "What's so funny, why are you laughing at me?" she said as she pouted "I'm not laughing at you, I know it's impossible but I know who you are" he replied still laughing in between words Ur looking up at him with a raised eyebrow "how do you know me we only met 10 minutes ago?" she asked
"Simple your student Gray is in my guild he's like my fremisis, actually I'd go as far to say he is my best friend apart from happy, just never tell I told you that." Looking at her face Natsu could see tears welling up on her face "he s-survived "she stuttered tears falling down her snow white skin out of sheer happiness "they survived Lyon and Gray both" Natsu told her with a toothy grin, Ur tried lifting her arms up in pain to hug the man who not only saved her but brought her the news of both her students surviving. As she painfully raised her arm Natsu picked her up into a hug and said to softly "you really are amazing you know" she was caught off guard by his compliment but was happy about receiving it nonetheless, still in his arms she could feel a heat much hotter than a normal persons off his body and could feel his warm breathe on her neck, it took her a minute to recompose herself when she eventually did so she told him "thank you Natsu, thank you for being there for my students and thank you for finding me." There was a soothing silence until it was interrupted by someone's stomach growling after hearing this Ur's face grew a deep red colour enough so that it would put Erza's hair to shame in terms of colour.
Moments of a peaceful yet awkward silence passed until it was broken by a distinct grumble of someone's stomach, slowly as the paralysis in her arms weakened Ur took her hands to cover her face out of embarrassment and started shouting into her hands. Natsu didn't really care as his stomach was next to grumble although it was more like a roar, "guess were both hungry…hahaha" he said placing one hand on the back of his head and laughing heartily at the situation. After hearing the monstrous roar that was Natsu's stomach she couldn't help but came down and laugh, lifting Ur up Natsu took her over to where they fire was and placed her down against a his pack so that she was able to sit up while he searched through his pack to see if he had any snacks he might have forgotten about.
After a few minutes Ur regained complete mobility in her upper body but her lower half was still very much numb, "yes I knew there would be something in here!" the dragonslayer joyfully exclaimed. Ur looked up to a small square black container with a blue lid labelled Happy's with smaller writing underneath saying "touch it and you die!" Natsu sniggered and said as he opened the box "sorry little buddy, but all fair in war" however to his disappointment there was only one fish inside the box, shrugging his shoulders he looked over at Ur who for the last few minutes had been moving her arms about and twiddling her fingers to try a get used to her body again. "You okay with fish?" he asked with a joyful tone she nodded in reply telling him she did, taking a stick from his pile of kindling Natsu put the fish on the stick and cooked it over the fire turning it as he did. Handing Ur the fish he smiled at her then told her "hope you like it, after seventeen years in the ice you'd definitely be hungry" "thank yo…wait seventeen years what year is it and how old are you and Gray?
To say Ur was stunned to find out she had be frozen in that ice for the last seventeen years "no wonder my magic feels so drained" the ice mage thought to herself, "well, the year is X794 and me and Gray are both 18. (How old I think they are) This confused Ur as she was 25 when she was teaching Gray and he was barely 8 years old (again what I think their ages were back then) Ur then told Natsu "Natsu if I've been frozen seventeen years then Gray should be in his mid-twenties" he then laughed and explained about the seven year time skip on Tenrou island how they didn't age physically and how her circumstances appeared similar to theirs. After everything had been cleared up and Ur had finished her meal Natsu said "we should find a way to get out of here, it will be night soon and though normally the cold doesn't bother ice wizards or me both of our magic power levels are low so the cold will be a factor to worry about" he said this standing up with the same serious tone as earlier, taking in what he had just said Ur agreed 100% but there was still one problem "there is another problem, I still can't walk so what will we?" She questioned with a sad tone in her voice he didn't want to be a burden to her new friend.
"Simple I'll carry you down the mountain to the village below, but first we'll need to find an exit from these caves." He said without the slightest hesitation which took Ur by shock, she'd only met this man little more than an hour ago and started to think to herself "we hardly know each other yet he's still being so kind to me" her thoughts were interrupted when he said "after we get back to Magnolia you can see Gray and even join Fairytail if you want" as he said the last part he turned his to face her with the biggest grin he could give her. At that instant Ur felt warmth spread throughout her body or the half she could feel, this man had such significant influence the way she talked and felt she couldn't understand.
After a few hours of walking piggy baking Ur the two were coming to a light, as they made their way to it Ur felt Natsu stumble, his eyes were half lidded now as the stress of radiating enough heat to keep them warm and the stress from staying in Lightning Flame Mode had begun to take its' toll on his body. Now out of the cave Natsu could see the town below them "Ur look, down there it's the…ugh" dropping down on one knee Natsu felt all his strength leave him, "Natsu! What's wrong" Ur shouted at him a little bit of fear in her voice knowing what might be wrong. "I'm totally tapped of magic power I can't take another step..." just then Natsu felt magic enter his body but it wasn't his, turning his head around he began to shout "what did you do?" With a small yet weak laugh she said "I just gave you the last of my magic, you already saved me so now it's my turn to repay you" Natsu quickly snapped back at her "idiot I didn't just save you so you throw it away now, what about Gray what about joining Fairytail, what about me I thought we'd just become friends?" But Ur could now longer hear him she had slipped into an Acoma-like state and her heartbeat began to lessen, Natsu could feel the tears rolling down his face and didn't know what came over him but in that moment his magic returned to him. Taking his right hand he ignited it engulfing it in flames but much to his surprise the fire was white in colour and made his hand feel cold, he then realized that his magic and Ur's had fused just like it had done with Laxus', figuring out what had happened and feeling Ur's heartbeat become more faint he slammed his fist into the shouting "ice-make bridge." Jumping onto the bridge now holding Ur bridal style he began sliding down his ice construction thinking "please hold out, just a bit longer we're nearly there" at the base of the ice bridge he fell off it into a roll still protecting Ur, quickly getting back onto his feet he shouted at the top of his "SOMEONE PLEASE GET A DOCTOR!"
And that's chp.2 done sorry if it seems a bit long I was trying to find the right point at where to end the chapter and felt like this was it. Next up will be chapter 3, we'll be back at Fairytail and seeming familiar friend and fugitives, again thanks for the reading it has really helped my confidence in my writing abilities so until next week Fiarytailguild1 out.
