Chapter 2

"No! I will not!"

"This is not your decision! It is your responsibility!"

"I will refuse any of them!"

"ENOUGH! I will not argue with a child! Molo. Take her out of my office."

Lucy Heartfilia was lead away by her butler Molo. Her face seething with anger. How dare he! She thought to herself. She had just turned eighteen a few days ago and was now forced to choose a suitor.

"Do not take so harshly to his words, Lucy-sama. He only wants you to be ha-"

"Molo-san, you already know he doesn't want me to be happy. He only wants an heir to his precious empire." She interrupted her butler, although sadness was evident in her eyes.

She walked into her bedroom and Molo gave her one last sad look before leaving. She flopped on the bed, hugging her pillow. Then she sprung up, laid her ear against the door to make sure no one was there, and reached under her bed. There she took out a soft, white scarf.

"Natsu, were are you?" she whispered. Over these ten years, his words were the only thing that drove Lucy to stay in this wretched place. She desperately wanted to see him again, he was like a father or brother to her. She held the scarf close and fell asleep on her bed.

Meanwhile In the Dragon Kingdom

"Finally it's over!" an iron dragon growled, laying it's head down on the hard rock.

"It was indeed tiring, but with a great outcome!" a light blue dragon said, happily.

"Wendy, how can you be so bright after the solstice!?" The iron dragon glanced towards the sky dragon.

The solstice was a special time for dragons. Every hundred years, they needed to reseal the gates locking Acnologia, a task that required all the dragons to fuel their energy for ten years. A short time for them, seeing on how they lived long.

"Maybe it's because I got stronger, Gajeel-san!" the sky dragon said hopefully.

"Gihihi. Don't make me laugh."

"Uwah! That's mean!"

"Both of you, shut it." Said a sleepy yellow dragon.

"Oi, Laxus. You should get up too." Laughter from a purple dragon emitted from the skies. It landed with a thud next to Laxus and poked him with his tail.

"Cobra. . . . stop . . ." mumbled Laxus. Cobra continued to poke him as Wendy and Gajeel started to chuckle.

"Stop. . . Stop!. . . STOP!. . . . .GOD DAMMIT! I'm up! Stop it!" The yellow dragon roared and tackled the purple one.

"What's with all the noise here?" A white dragon emerged from the rocks and beside it was a black dragon.

"Hello! Sting-san and Rogue-san!" Wendy waved her tail to them.

"Hey there Wendy-chan!" called Sting. Rogue yawned.

"Hey were is Natsu-san?"

"Yea, where is that salaman-"

Before Gajeel could finish, a red giant fell from the sky on top of him. "Who're you calling salamander, Iron breath?"

"Ya wanna go?"

"You betcha!" They engaged in a fight as Wendy looked closely at Natsu.

"Natsu-san?"

"Don't bother me, Wendy! I'm fighting here!"

"Where's your scarf?" Silence filled the room and everyone's heads turned to Natsu. As he opened his mouth, a bigger red dragon came into the room, followed by a few more dragons.

"Igneel!"

"Metalicana!"

"Grandeeney-san!"

"Raiden!"

"Dokusei!"

"Skiadrum!"

"Weisslogia!"

"Hello there, my children." Grandeeney said.

"You've done well! Now you get to screw around on earth again!" Metalicana cackled.

Raiden went over and patted Laxus's head. "Good job, my son."

"Not bad, Cobra!" Dokusei punched Cobra lighted on the shoulder.

Skiadrum and Weisslogia went over the Sting and Rogue and jumped on them, rubbing their knuckles into their children's skulls.

Finally Igneel walked toward Natsu. "How are you doing my son?"

"I feel great!" Natsu said, releasing a stream of flame.

"Do you remember our discussion before the solstice?"

"Of course, Dad." He mumbled.

"Well, I am going to tell you how to do i-"

"Wait! I don't need that kind of information!" said Natsu. If dragons could blush, he would be redder that his scales.

"Idiot! There is a certain procedure to claim them as your mate." Igneel hissed, hitting Natsu on his head.

"Ok. . . How?"

"First you give them you Fyior, and then mate as in mate."

. . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . . .

. . . . . . .

. . . . . .

. . . . .

. . . .

. . .

. .

.

Natsu looked dumbfounded and when he spoke he said, "Crap. Crap. Crap! Craaaap!"

All the dragons were now looking at him.

"I. . . . .gave it away. . . .ten years ago . ." When Natsu looked up, Igneel's head was turned away in what seemed like shame. Then his shoulders started to shake.

"Ahahahahahhahahahahaha!" The old dragon fell on the floor laughing.

"Igneel!" Natsu turned and saw the other dragons laughing too. Even Wendy let out a small chuckle. "How do I get it back?!" The room's laughter slowly died away.

"You have to kill your mate." Grandeeney said, quietly.

"I can't kill her!"

"Oh thank god. It's a her."

"Shut up, Laxus! I'll show you! I'm going to get my Fyior back!" The red dragon opened its wings and bolted up from the ground. He flew the skies and let out fire in anger.

"I can do this. She is just a human. I can get my gem back. . . ." After hours of flying, he finally arrived at the human estate from ten years ago. It hadn't changed much and the sweet scent still lingered on the property. He inhaled deeply, taking in the numbing, sweet smell. He saw golden hair in the garden and lunged towards it.

She didn't see him as he approached her but as he was about to pounce he heard a strange sound.

". . . . .*sniff*. . . . Natsu. . . . . ." He saw her hands reach up and rub her eyes. He also saw his scarf wrapped tightly around her neck. It fit so perfectly. All resolve of attacking crumbled. As he took a step closer he stepped on a branch.

Crack

Lucy's head snapped around and she saw him. It took her a minute to react to him.

"Um. . . .Hi." the dragon said, sheepishly. Lucy flung her arms around him, hugging him close.

"Waah. . . . .Baka!. . . . . .What took you so long?"

"I'm sorry." He mumbled. Then Natsu noticed something. Her smell. It was different. It smell like other humans. "Lucy. Why do you smell like other men?"

Her face fell. "My father was arranging suitors for me. Most of them talked, some of them got a little touchy-feely. I am getting married in a week. It's not like I can leave or something."

Something inside Natsu roared. Anger boiled in his veins. "Why not?"

"W-what?"

"What is preventing you from leaving?" he demanded.

What is preventing me from leaving? Lucy thought to herself. There's nothing for me here.

"I will keep you safe and happy."He whispered. "Why don't you come with me?"

"Yea. . . .why not?" she mumbled.

"L-Lucy-sama?!" Her head turned and she saw Molo-san, his face etched with surprise. Natsu growled. "I overheard your conversation and I just want to say. . . . Good luck. I know, since I am a butler, that you will always follow your heart. You are just like your mother, Lucy." He hugged her close. Molo-san had never used Lucy's name without formality. He turned and walked away.

"T-Thank you Molo-san!" He turned and waved, a small tear glistened on his face.

"Let's go Natsu."

She climbed on his back. "You've gotten heavy," He grunted. He received a punch to his head. He lifted up and started to flap. Lucy whispered one last thing before leaving.

"Goodbye."
