Once the dragon slayers and Doranbolt arrived at the village to start preparing for the next dragon attack a man with glasses from the council approached them. "Thank you both for coming so urgently." Said Lahar with his usually stoic face. "Yeah so where's the dragon at as we speak?" Gajeel said with a serious tone. "Right now he is at a cave to the north about 20 miles away." As Natsu tried to run off to the cave to fight the dragon instantly. "Hold on flame brain we need more intel, and this isn't like any other monster hunt were fighting a dragon." stated Gajeel as he grabbed Natsu by his scarf so he couldn't get away. "Fine" Natsu said with a pout as he sat on the ground. "Lahar what kind of information can you give us on the dragon?" Gajeel asked. "From what we have the dragon has maroon scales and is a fire typing, and so Natsu should be able to handle him easier than most." stated Lahar. "Salamander you don't think its Igneel do you?" asked Gajeel with a face of worry for the other dragon slayer. "Igneel would never attack villages for no reason he loves humans more than any one I've ever known, and I knew it wasn't him ever since gramps told us about the mission." Natsu answered with a serious tone and glare. "But if it's a fire dragon I might be able to talk him out of this situation since Igneel was the fire dragon king." said Natsu with a hopeful smile. "I know that the dragon is doing bad but even if I have slaying magic killing is never the right thing to do, but if he won't stop what he is doing ill make sure of it myself that he is taken down." Natsu said with a sad smile.
"Alright Salamander and I feel the same way as you." Gajeel said with a small grin. Natsu looked up with his trade mark smile to Gajeel response. "Gajeel before we go I think Doranbolt should come with us in case of an emergency and also saying with that we shouldn't allow the rune knights to help with battling the dragon since we will be able to let loose without any worry. Natsu said and surprised the other three. "While we battle the dragon and if we run into any issues we can have Doranbolt rely a message to Lahar in case we need to evacuate the village as fast as possible as well as if one of us gets injured in the process." Now completely surprised the three men all at the same time. "Who are you and what have you done with Natsu?!". "This has always been me but I like playing around more than being serious, but in this case I don't think me being how I normally am will make sure we come out of this alive." Natsu looked at them with a smile. "I'm sorry for ever doubting you salamander" Gajeel said which surprised Natsu. "You getting soft on me bolts for brains?" Natsu said with a smirk. "Oh that's it were finishing what we started earlier!" Gajeel now walking towards Natsu. "That's enough you two, you both are going to need all your magic for fighting the dragon and if you two are ready we can head there now since we are wasting precious time. Doranbolt said with a commanding tone.
"Yes Sir!" both Natsu and Gajeel said with a slight nervous tone.
"Good luck you three and be careful." Lahar said with a soft smile.
"When has being careful been known for us fairy tail mages?" Said Natsu with a smirk as the three teleported near to the dragon.
At least even when he's serious he can give everyone hope and a smile. Lahar thought as he went back to his troops to be prepared for anything.
As the three arrived in the woods a mile away from the cave the dragon slayers could smell the dragon and the blood on its claws as they arrived. "How many villages has he killed?" Gajeel asked while pinching his nose. "It was reported that he took out 10 villages in Fiore and before he crossed the border who knows." Doranbolt stated. "Alright Gajeel let's get this started, Doranbolt I want you to wait in eye distance in case of an emergency but I don't want you to come in unless absolutely necessary am I clear." Natsu said with a commanding voice rivaling Erza. Doranbolt now slightly scared of the fire dragon slayer "Yes s-sir" as he saluted Natsu. "Damn salamander did you take lessons from Titania?" Gajeel said with a slight scared tone. "I've just been on the receiving end long enough to know how to do it." Natsu said with a smirk.
When Gajeel and Natsu approached the cave hoping to be able to sneak up on the beast but before they entered the cave everyone in a five-mile radius could hear the roar that came from the dragon as it slowly walked out of the cave. "Oh the humans are bringing me delivery now?" the dragon could smell Natsu and Gajeel as he walked out of the cave and stood towering over trees and everything around the dragon slayers. "I'm usually not one to talk to my food but who are you two I can tell by your scents that you're not normal humans?" asked the dragon with a curious grin. Gajeel spoke while standing tall and proud "I'm Gajeel Redfox son of Metalicana and Iron Dragon slayer." Then Natsu standing right next to him with the same proud stance "I'm Natsu Dragneel Fire Dragon slayer, son of Igneel, King of the Fire Dragons." The dragon laughed after the introductions from the dragon slayers. "Son of Igneel and Metalicana the human loving dragons, they may have once been feared by the whole dragon community but after they disappeared to raise their 'sons' the dragons who didn't agree with them on humans being are equals started revolting. I may be a fire dragon but I won't follow the human loving Igneel anymore and after I'm done with you two I'm going to go to the nearest village and eat my fill." The dragon said with a tone that would scare most. "Fine if that's how it's going to be then were going to have to take you down are you ready Gajeel?!" Natsu yelled with a pissed off tone. "You know it salamander!" Gajeel replied with his own angry voice.
Natsu started off the attack on the dragon by leaping in the air with a fist of blazing fire FIRE DRAGON IRON FIST as he punched the dragon on top of the head with tremendous magical power.
Gajeel followed up with a loud IRON DRAGON'S ROAR that hit the dragon and made him skid back a few feet as Natsu landed next to him after the dragon backed away.
"This is going to be tougher than we thought." Natsu said while analyzing the damage done to the dragon
As the dust settled you could hear the laughing of the dragon "That was pretty good for humans although it did very little damage you still managed to take off a few scales but I think its time for my turn" FIRE DRAGON ROAR as Gajeel watched the huge ball of heat traveling towards him Natsu stepped in the way and ate all of the roar that the dragon sent out.
"WHAT HOW COULD A MERE HUMAN EAT MY FLAMES?!" the dragon reacted surprised to Natsu eating all of his flames
"Now I got a fire in my belly!" Natsu said with a big grin. "You think just because I'm a human raised by a fire dragon that I can't eat your flames, well your wrong pal because I was raised by Igneel and his flames are 100x hotter than yours will ever be!" Natsu yelled as he ran under the dragon FIRE DRAGONS FLAME ELBOW as he punched the dragon in his underbelly with flames exploding everywhere and heavily damaging the dragon.
As the Dragon recovered from the brutal attack he slashed at the fire dragon slayer but was blocked by Gajeel with his iron dragon sword but to Gajeel's surprise the slash broke his magic and slashed his right arm with slashes going across his arm, "AHHHHHHH" Gajeel yelled from the pain as Natsu pulled him away before the dragon could attack his comrade again.
Bleeding heavily the iron dragon slayer was clenching his arm "This is going to hurt Gajeel but let me cauterize the wound" Natsu said in a commanding tone. "Hurry it up I need to payback that lizard for hurting me" as Natsu lit his hand ablaze as hot as he could he slowly ran his hand over the slashes on Gajeel and slowly cauterized the wound. As he finished a tail from the dragon sent them flying into a boulder hard enough to shatter it completely.
Now with two pissed off dragon slayers "I think it's time we get serious" Gajeel said with a smirk. IRON DRAGON SCALES and then ran up to the dragon IRON DRAGON LANCE: DEMON LOGS. The dragon took all the damage from the attack before swatting the iron dragon slayer a good distance leaving just the dragon and Natsu alone.
"GAJEEL!" Natsu charged the dragon with insane speeds FIRE DRAGON SWORD HORN and hit the Dragon in the face but before Natsu could land the dragon slashed Natsu across his chest from his right shoulder all the way down to his left hip.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH" Natsu was screaming in pure agony from the slash he received to his chest and as he hit the ground there was a crater where his body lay. Laying in agony Natsu quickly cauterized the wound across his chest knowing if he didn't he would die from blood loss before the battle ended.
As he leapt out of the crater panting heavily Gajeel retuned looking pissed off "Salamander we need to hit him hard so that we can get the advantage if not were not going to win this" Natsu nodded agreeing with Gajeel and then they both stood side by side as the dragon started approaching the two again with a curios look.
FIRE DRAGON
IRON DRAGON
ROAR!
As the two magic's merged together to form a dragon slayer unison raid the dragon tried to do his own roar but was surprised to see he was overpowered from the tremendous roar. Then when the roar hit its target the Dragon flew across the field and hit the mountain.
Gajeel ran up to try and finish the dragon but before he could land anything the dragon slashed at him with his claws doing heavy damage to his side and was bleeding heavily My iron dragon scales did nothing quietly shocked from what just happened and the adrenaline blocking the pain he crash landed in the woods with Natsu running after him.
"GAJEEL!" Natsu ran up to Gajeel to see if he was ok, but from the damage that was done he was bleeding lots and was breathing heavily and was beyond being able to be helped by the fire dragon slayer. Doranbolt appeared next to the two dragon slayers "We need to retreat even with how damaged the dragon is you can't take him by yourself Natsu" Doranbolt said looking at the damaged iron dragon slayer. "No" Natsu stood up and looked towards the direction of the dragon. "Natsu not even you are strong enou- "Doranbolt stopped as he stood there in complete shock as he felt the magic pressure emitting from Natsu. As Natsu turned around Doranbolt noticed the rage induced face on the dragon slayer and scales protruding down his arms around his face. Dragon Force.
"He's going to pay for what he did to Gajeel so you get him to the guild so Wendy can heal him I'm going to finish this and don't bring anyone back here no one else must get hurt." Natsu said with a commanding pissed off tone.
"You better not die on us Natsu" and Natsu nodded as the two teleported.
Back at the Guild Hall
The guild hall for the first time in years is being dead quite waiting for the return of their dragon slayers after hearing the news of mission from the Master. It has been three hours since they left and barely any words have been spoken as the tension grows with every minute that they haven't heard any news of what may have happened to the dragon slayers until a lil blue hair girl spoke up.
"You think Natsu-nii and Gajeel-san are still fine right?" Wendy asked the guild as she stood there in worry as her two brother figures and fellow dragon slayers went to go battle the dragon without her.
"Wendy I'm sure that they will be ok they are the most stubborn members of the guild so try and wait for them child." Carla trying to reassure the young dragon slayer as she is worried for her.
"Carla is right Wendy lets have complete faith in them, when have they ever left us down before?" Asked Erza with a smile to try and calm down Wendy.
"I know Erza-san but I still can't have this bad feeling that something is wron-" as if on que once again by Doranbolt. He reappeared with a heavily injured and barely alive iron dragon slayer. "WENDY HE NEEDS MEDICAL ASSISTANCE NOW!" Doranbolt yelled in a panic tone. As Wendy rushed over there she noticed the already formed scars on Gajeels right arm and the damage done to the side of his abdomen from claws as long as more heavy cuts and bruises all around his body. As she got to work saving the iron dragon slayer Erza came running over. "WHERE IS NATSU, IS HE OKAY!?" She yelled with a very scary commanding tome with much worry on her face for her childhood friend. "I'm sorry Erza Gajeel got heavily damaged and told me to take him back here to get healed while he stayed to finish of the dragon." with complete shock in her eyes she grabbed Doranbolt by the color "Take me to him now he can't take this on alone!" in a commanding tone that sacred everyone in the guild. "I'm sorry Erza but he told me to not bring anyone back with me so that none of you could get hurt." Doranbolt replied with a sad expression. As the guild blew up from the news of the fire dragon slayer they love all by himself.
"What is the flame brain thinking?!"
"If him and Gajeel couldn't take it down what thinks he can do it by himself?!"
"I know he's reckless but even he can't do this.!"
"THAT'S ENOUGH BRATS!"
Now with a worried and angry face the guild master walked up to Doranbolt. "I know there must be a reason besides us getting hurt that is stopping you from taking us to him."
"Your right Master Makarov, after seeing Gajeel really hurt Natsu got extremely pissed off and activated dragon force."
Erza now shocked more than anyone from the news of Natsu in Dragon Force witnessing first-hand the power he has while in that form. "Master Natsu is on a whole completely different level when he is in Dragon Force back at the Tower of Heaven when I witnessed it his magic power could rival yours or even Gildarts."
Master Makarov now with a face of complete shock analyzed the new information and turned around to face the guild. "I know our boy reckless and may seem dumb at times, but in any case when it comes to fighting everyone knows here that Natsu will not be taken down lightly and if the information about Dragon Force is true as to what Erza is saying we will only be in the way of Natsu as he fights the dragon. That's why we will put full faith in that boy as he is a strong fairy tail wizard, NOW LETS CHEER ON NATSU!" As he did the fairy tail symbol and raised his hand into the air the rest of the guild hall roared in cheers as they all did the same symbol. Natsu it's all up to you now my boy make us proud.
Back with Natsu
Natsu emerged from the woods pissed off at the dragon as he showed to true power of a dragon slayer Dragon Force. As he neared the damaged dragon the dragon turned and grinned at the new magical power that Natsu was emitting. "Looks like this is going to be a fun battle boy and I recognize you as a worthy adversary, and will tell you my name. I am Zex. Now show me the true extent of your power and let's fight to the death!" as the dragon charged Natsu knowing his fire attacks would only make him lose the battle.
"Sorry Zex but I'm walking out of here alive." FIRE DRAGON WING ATTACK as he exploded the attack on the dragon taking more scales off the huge dragon Natsu noticed that he could start see the skin of the dragon from where the scales sue to be on his neck.
"Sorry dragon slayer but your time is now" as Natsu was floating down the dragon stabbed him through the leg with his talon and threw him across the field of battle.
As Natsu struggled to get up from the brutal attack heavily leaning on his right leg for balance since the pain from his left leg was excruciating. He was about to give up all hop since he can barely stand until he felt the presence of his guild. As Natsu looked around looking for his guild mates hoping it was his imagination he saw his guild mark on his right shoulder was glowing bright and was easing the pain. As Natsu built up his magical energy the best he could to finish off the dragon with one last attack "It's time to end this Zex! I have my family waiting for me and I'm not going to make them wait any longer!" as he pooled all his magical energy into this last attack he aimed for the open spot on the dragon's neck that wasn't covered in scales DRAGON SLAYER SECRET ART CRIMSON LOTUS: EXPLODING FLAME EDGE as the spiral of fire with immense power flew in a spiral pattern towards the dragon and hit the open spot on the neck and went through the neck completely leaving a huge hole in his neck the dragon said. "Son of Igneel you were a worthy opponent, but I won't be the last" as the dragon collapsed with its dying words.
Natsu barely able to stay awake he saw Doranbolt running up to him before he passed out from magic and physical exhaustion.
