May contain spoiler!
The night sky loomed over the earth filled with bright celestial stars that gave light to the living beings residing on earth. Cool gentle breeze blew across the inhabited cities of earthLand as it gave a relaxing chill.
Somewhere on earth land, five gigantic figures gathered around each other in a circular motion. Each one of them differs in colour and size. A grunt was heard amongst them during their conversation.
"Igneel, how has she been progressing lately?" A feminine voice called out to the mighty fire dragon identified in the gathering.
"Not bad for a human, I believe she is to be stronger than that brat of Metalicana's"
"He is not a brat igneel" Metallicana scowled at Igneel's remark, sighing in disbelief as he tried to ignore prideful red dragon.
"So Grandeeney, I heard from a certain red lizard that you picked up a human child or rayher adopted?" Everyone except Igneel snickered at the iron dragon's comeback at Igneel who snarled angrily at the black steel dragon.
"Ah yes, she is the most adorable creature i have ever set my eyes on. She is so cute, so adorable so beau-"
"Enough of that! We are not here to hear you speak in such ridiculous tone while gushing stupidly about a human child you adopted!" Igneel spatted with Vernon in his voice. One who think he hated Grandeeney but that may not be the case. Grandeeney used to tease Igneel a lot when they were much younger much to the chargin of the red dragon who has ever since then been annoyed at her presence.
"How rude of you Igneel! Have some manners and don't interrupt when some else is speaking, especially if it is a lady!" Grandeeney scolded and huffed in annoyance at Igneel, not wanting to hear another word from him.
"I wouldn't ever try calling you a lady, you bird of a dragon" Grandeeney was a white dragon, well much smaller than other dragon which one may mistake for a wyvern. Having snow white scales and blues eyes with slit iris, she was quite a beautiful dragon.
"Oh really, considering your hot headed attitude, you should consider yourself lucky that someone as pretty as me still stays near you" Grandeeney said slyly as she winked at Igneel which made him greatly annoyed.
"More like you staying near me is like a nightmare" Igneel fired back, as tension grew between those two.
"That is enough you two" Another deep voice cuts in breaking up the tension they had created, not wanting to listen to them any longer.
"Quit behaing like a spoilt brat Igneel, and Grandeeney, please keep your provocation to yourself" It warned, not liking their display right now.
"Weisslogia, don't lecture me and mind your own business" Igneel yelled at the Light dragon who disapproved of his attitude.
"We are not here to fool around! Please lets get down to the issue at hand or I'm leaving this instant! A new voice threatened, sounding very annoyed at their current situation.
" Skiadrum is right, we don't have time for silly games of words" Metallicana supported the shadow dragon called skiadrum. Skiadrum is a large shadow dragon with a black shadowy colour that fits his magic, black iris and a matching black wings.
"Both Skiadrum and I had adopted two human children to pass on our magic" Weisslogia announced to the group which interested them. Asking first, Grandeeney eyes sparkled in delight as she tried to extract some information for herself.
"Are they both girls?! Are they cute or adorable?! Could they be as cute as my daughter?! How old are they?! Are they Actual sisters?! Let me see them please?!!" Everyone sweat dropped at her childish antics as Skiadrum and Weisslogia shared a look as the former answered her questions.
"No, no, I don't know, no, not now but later" He answered flatly, earning a laugh from both the iron dragon and light dragon with the red dragon snickering at her. Getting serious, Igneel looked at them with content.
"Everything is all going according to plan" They all agreed.
Their meeting was cut short as suddenly, the earth gave a violent vibration as the dragons began to look around in confusion. A sudden spike of an unimaginable amount of magical powers sipped all around them, making them freeze in fear, sending cold chills up their spines.
"I-i-igneel w-what's g-going on?!" Asked a frightened Grandeeney as she felt intimidated under this magical pressure.
"I-is it p-possible that it is him" Weisslogia said in fright as he tried to keep his balance in check with fear hinted in his voice.
"Impossible! Please tell it's not him, please!" She pleaded desperately not hiding her fear at all.
"Calm down everyone! This isn't him. This magic is far more powerful than his" Igneel assured them but not feeling so convinced in his own words.
"P-perhaps, a new threat?!" Metallicana reasoned, earning a gasp from the female dragon.
"Possibly, I am going on ahead to check it out" Trying to sound strong and focused, Igneel managed to get himself soaring up through the night sky as the dim rays of light reflected on his red scales. Not wanting to be left behind the others sloppily launched up and followed him, the magical pressure not being any help at all.

"Alright then, I'm ready when you are!" He declared as he threw off his hooded-cloak, revealing himself. He wore a long yellow frock-coat with long arms reaching his wrist, a long rail of buttons filled the centre of his coat, matching yellow pants with blue designs of flower filling both clothing up with a pair of black gladiators sandals. He had long weavry hair which had three colours on it; the crest of this hair containing a silver white colour, mid-section containing a pink colour and lower part a yellow colour. He had a dim golden eyes, which matched his physique. He looked no older than 20years of age. He was like a prince out from a fairytale.
Golden eyes met dark eyes as they had a staring contest, zeref secretly admiring this mysterious man. The man got on a battle stance as he propelled himself towards zeref at fast speed as he pulled out a fist aimed at zeref.
"Black Arts: Immobilization!" Zeref whispered calmly as a large black magic circle appeared above the sky, activating at zeref's command, freezing time itself. The trees paused it dance, falling leaves stopped mid air not daring to move an inch.
He stopped midway towards zeref, seeming unaware of the time freeze. Zeref closed the distance between them, raising up a right hand as he enchanted another spell
"Stygian blast circle" A dark magical circle appeared on his right palm as a large ring of spinning dark flames burst out from the magic circle, circling around his right arm like a serpent. Pointing it to his opponent, it flew off him like a raging serpent and crashed onto the other man as it exploded creating a slight wave, cancelling his first magic.
The flames burned on, time resumed and the flames grew intensely. Sighing Zeref turned to leave, deciding the battle to be over.
"io, don't turn your back on your opponent in a battle" 'Prince charming' called out from the explosion becoming visible from all the smoke and dust, a weird blue smoke emitting from his body from the wounds he sustained from the attack he received.
"Self regeneration; healing magic huh" Zeref eyes narrowed and he gave a sullen smile while looking at him like he was a piece of meat offered for discount in the market. "This is gonna be fun, don't you think?"
"Yeah it sure will be" He smiled back at the black haired mage.
"Black Arts; Fortress enforcement" Zeref shot forward at blinding speed as he sent a quick punch as it collided with the other man's fist, causing a mini shockwave as the force pushed them backwards a little, blowing the trees slightly. 'Prince charming' launched himself at zeref, throwing a devastating blow to his head, seeing the incoming attack, zeref slapped his attack with the back of his palm and drove a fist to his abdomen, knocking the wind out of him but he stood his ground and headbutted zeref who staggered at the sudden attack.
The young man gave a roundhouse kick to zeref's face, hitting him dead on with light wave and the sound of bones cracking the process, colliding and destroying four trees from the force of the attack. He fell to his to his knees as he coughed up blood. Seeing he attacker positioned himself like he was about to start a race as he plunged towards him at super speed, shattering the earth beneath him. Zeref stood up quickly and ran forward at lightning speed as they both sent furies of destructive punches and kicks, destroying everything in their intense battle.
A leg kick shot at zeref as he countered by blocking it with his hands. Getting a hold of it, he flung the golden eyed man up in the air, proplleing himself up at lightning speed, the ground beneath him formed a small crater at the pressure while he flew into the dark sky.
"Fist of Annihilation!" A black magic circle appeared around zeref's fist, coating it with large quantity of dense black mist as he drove it into the other man's abdomen with extreme force. Feeling the painful impact, golden eyes widen in pains as he coughed up blood, splattering on zeref's face.
The forceful impact sent him soaring further into the air, with zeref loosing momentum, but replaced with flaming feet's that propelled him at rocket speed, head butting the other man, as he coughed another handful of blood.
Zeref caught him by the neck before he fell, and continuously kneed him in the stomach mid-air, light wave bursting out from the painfully strong attack. Pain shot through his body as he struggled to breath, his lungs feeling extremely hot and painful. Stopping his trains of attack to catch his breath, his eyes glowed red, black ominous aura covered them both, zeref looked down to earth, his flaming feet keeping them from falling.
"It's sad that your time has actually come to an end" He gave a sadistic smirk, and with all his might, he threw the other man down to earth, covering him with deadly black mist.
Falling down to earth with a sonic boom causing three layers of waves in the air as he mercilessly crashed into the earth, causing a massive explosive shockwave, creating an enormous crater from his fall like a meteoroid, raising an excessive amount of dust like a large mushroom. He laid down lifeless in the large crater. His whole body was broken, blood came out freely from his slightly opened mouth, his eyes like tears and his ears.
Soon a whistling sound came from above like the gravity of earth was pulling it down. A dark mist fell from the sky, land crashed into the crater causing another massive explosion, tripling the size of the crater. The explosion spread about two-third of the entire forest, disintegrating everything in the process.
"Magmus Oblivion: Disintegration" A voice calmly said from above as he watched on as the forest disintegrated like dust particles sighing at the destruction caused by his attacks.
'Maybe i overdid it a little' He confessed as he was feeling a little worried of what he had done.
A battered body laid at he centre of a large crater able to house a whale, his golden eyes void of any life and his body as pale as a ghost. Zeref was surprised that both his clothes and hairs were still intact but didn't think much about it. He drifted down to the tip of the hole, landing softly while looking down at the 'dead man'.
"Foolish one, may you rest in peace" He prayed with his hands clasped together, giving him his final respect, and turned to leave.
Large amount of blue smoke filled the hole, reaching zeref's feet. He felt a tingling sensation from it as he turned back to see a hole covered blue smoke in it.
"Don't tell me he is..." He became frustrated as the smoke cleared out, revealing a multicolour haired man standing and waving at lightly at zeref while smiling.
"Amazing...really amazing..." Zeref yelled out in excitement as he flew downwards to him, inspecting him thoroughly forgetting all his malice and hate.
"I first thought you were dead but that doesn't seems to be the case and now you're healed up like nothing ever happened" Feeling confused as his confusion were replaced with shock.
"You're right, nothing ever happened, you haven't touched me yet" He smiled warmly at zeref who gawked at him.
"Oh and by the way, My name is Korin prowess, pleased to meet you!" He finally introduced himself and laughed lighthearted at the expression on zeref's face.
"What do you mean by that? I know I nearly, if not killed you just now"
"Yes you definitely killed me just now" now Zeref was totally confused
"If I had killed you, why are you standing here now?" he asked the obvious, feeling like he was been toyed with.
"Because that was my illusion"
Realisation hit him as put all the piece together. He never used any magic to begin with, just brute strength as he was the only one to cast a few powerful spells.
"Now you know. If I were to really attack you, it would be like this..." He touched zeref's forehead and he instantly vanished, appearing out of the crater on the levelled ground.
Connecting zeref telepathically as he said 'considering me staying of battle, if i were to battle myself, it would have been this way'
The air turned cold as it stood still, making it hard to breath. Zeref struggled to breath as cold shivers ran down his spine. Suddenly the ground began to quiver ferocuisly, thrashing him around as he lost his footing and fell on this butt.
The pebbles around him shock in fear and bust up in dust.
"J-just what is g-going on?!" He asked in dismay, with a little excitement. A tidal wave of wind came from all corners as gathered into the large hole swirling around inside the crater, all around Korin as it swallowed him up.
Two bright golden light began to shine from the violent wind, looking intimidating. Unimaginable magical pressure was released like an extremely bright pillar of huge golden light shot from earth to the night sky threatening to pull anything and everything around.
Trying his hardest not to be sucked in, zeref stared in awe at the surplus amount of magic that brightened the earth and the dark sky making it look like the night never occurred.
"Unbelievable" was the only word he could mutter at the godly presence.
It was far to large to be called magic, it was far too powerful to be approachable, it was far too strong to exist on earth.
With Igneel and the others...
"There! That pillar of light must be the source!" Igneel told his companions as they Soared the sky trying to reach their goal.
"What colossial magic is this?! Asked a metal dragon.
" This is definitely not 'him', I'm sure of it" Igneel finally concluded.
"Yes, 'his' magic is pitch black and a mixture of blue, giving off the presence of dispair and chaos" Weisslogia joined in.
"But if it wasn't him, then what is?" Now it was rather a 'what' than 'who' because no existing human who ever produce such immense magic as Grandeeney can't hold back her worries.
"Let's hope that whatever it is, it would be on the good side" Skiadrum concluded as they quickly approached the light.
In Magnolia...
"Oh goodness! what is that?!"
"It's shining!"
"Its beautiful!"
"Have a star fallen from space?!"
"Don't be silly, there is no way that can happen!"
"But the ground vibrated just moments ago"
"Yeah I wonder what happened over there"
The citizens of magnolia conversed amongst each other staring in amazement at the golden pillar of light from afar. Some wondered if the world has finally come to an end. But that is not the case.
In Crocus...
Everyone looked on from their homes, wondering what was going on. Fear washed over them as they thought a threat might be approaching them.
"Mama, what is that pretty light over there?"
"I don't know honey" was the conversation between a mother and her son as they gazed on in fear.
Somewhere deep within a dark valley...
A human figure saw the light, feeling the rather strong magic, he snarled loudly as he proclaimed "I must make this magic mine" Smirking as darkness enveloped everywhere.
Somewhere else entirely...
In a dark space where nothing could hardly be seen.
"Damn 'he' is still alive" A tall shadowy figure said sounding masculine with a hint of annoyance in his voice.
"Tch...tha 'bastard' is just too stubborn to die" A new male voice sounded from the darkness.
"From the beginning, you all have tried in vain, besides 'he' is the most powerful one among us" A calm male voice said not sounding supportive of their discussion.
"'He' isn't the most powerful or are you forgetting that I exist?" A feminine voice vocalised in awareness as she stressed out.
"Damn 'him'...but no matter we will have our way soon" The first man said as they disappeared in the darkness.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
Korin eyes glowed a pure golden colour as he activated his 'magic' with his hair glowing a shade of three colour, white, pink and yellow. Seeing it was enough reverted his powers, stopping all unnatural phenomenon from occurring any further. Appearing beside a worn-out, stunned and flabbergasted mage who sat there, oblivious of his own surrounding.
A light tap on the mage's shoulder caused him to shiver from the touch, coming back to the right sense. Standing up slowly as Korin laughed at him and his drama of shaky legs.
Turning to Korin, he bowed his head making him confused "I have lost"
"What do you mean you've 'lost'?" Confusion washed on his head not knowing what the mage spoke about.
"The battle, there is no way I can defeat that"
"Oh so that's what you mean, well don't worry cause I don't plan on killing anyone now" Zeref cringed at his words
"Now?...you plan on killing later?!" Asking to be sure that hr heard wrong
"Yes, I plan to kill later but it's not you or people you may know...you won't understand though" He explained reasonably trying to ease up the awkwardness that was growing.
Zeref coughed slightly in between words "What was that?!"
"That?!"
"Yes, your magic, what was it?"
"That's not magic. I don't conjure magic circles or have any fancy spells and attacks like you mages do" He explained while demonstrating childishly.
"Then what was it?" Zeref dark eyes met his golden eyes as they stared at each other intently.
"Don't ask further, My powers are called infinitude" He answered as he materialise his red hooded-cloak on his body leaving his head uncovered.
Zeref pondered deeply as he realised something wrong.
"Infinitude means limitless or boundless, does that mean..."
"Yup" This simple response brought fear in the black mage as he stepped back a bit sensing grave danger been close to the man.
"Don't worry, I'm not like that nosy 'Ankhseram' who knows nothing more than to curse and accuse people unjustly" Zeref gasped, he was talking about ankhseram like he knew him. Something is wrong here and he can just smell it. Unleashing a great deal of his magic, trying to looking intimidating as piercing red orbs looked at a certain 'monster man'.
"Calm down zeref, I'm not him and neither am I like him. You're gonna die if you try it though" An uninterested man said as the black mage saw the uselessness in his plan.
An abrupt roar stopped their conversation, glancing towards the source or noise, Korin saw five large dragons flying towards them. They had considerably large amount of magic as the came close. They lowered themselves picking up dust from their flapping wings.
Zeref curiously walked close to him as the dragons immediately recognised the dark hair man.
"Zeref, what happened here?" Igneel asked in a demanding tone with an air of seriousness that stated business.
"Yes black wizard, most of the forest disintegrated and a rather... large hole...over there?" Metallicana gestured over the whale sized hole as Korin laughed loudly.
"What do you find funny about this human!" A tick mark appeared on Igneel's head as he tried not to eat this dolts in front of him.
Well...me and zeref were playing around and we kinda...um...destroyed everywhere and I...um...released...a...um... little too much... of my...powers" he answered hestitantly as he comically fidgeted and played with his two index fingers as he answered all their questions at once.
"You were the caster of that unnatural phenomenon of a magic?" They looked at him dumbstrucked, feeling a little lightheaded as they tried processing the little piece of information they received.
"Sir dragon, I'm sorry about destroying everywhere and secondly I'm not a human" astounding everyone further save for zeref who had his fair share of surprise earlier.
"Not to worry, I'll fix it right away".
Korin turned around as he looked at the first degree destruction they had caused, sighing he raised his left hands up as it suddenly began to gather wind. The wind continuously came to his palm as it twirl like a spinning orb of ball, just the size of a football.
It began to shine an extremely blinding bright colour of blue, radiating a different kind of power, warm and comforting. Seeing this was enough to do the trick, he threw down the ball of blue light as it sank into the floor.
They all looked anxiously, silently waiting as to what would happen next...but nothing happened.
" Well, that was something..." Skiadrum broke the silence first as the others agreed with him.
Suddenly the earth turned blue, radiating a warm blue light as it began to restore everything that was destroyed in the previous battle.
"Amazing' they all thought as in a matter of mere seconds everything came back to the way it was.
"And done!" He turned to face them as the earth reverted back to its dirty brown colour, no more craters or destroyed trees or an empty waste land. Everything was back to the way it was as trees and birds and leaves filled the forest.
"Was that Time magic?" Igneel asked not understanding what happened.
"Nope, its healing magic. A type of healing powers that heals or revert anything and everything even objects" He stated as he began to feel bored.
"Korin prowess, I would like to discuss with you" A very serious looking zeref said as Korin looked at him in confused.
3hours later...
"I see, very well then I'll help you"
"You would?" Zeref asked as the dragons rejoiced silently.
"That's why I'm here in the first place, to remove threats from this world" He answered clearly.
They discussed about ancologia and the dragon king festival with their plans of training humans to take after them and he had just agreed to help them. And so it began.

February 4(X377)
"Shadow dragon roar!"
"White dragon roar!"
"Fire dragon roar!"
"Iron dragon roar!"
All elements shot out from their respective user's mouth as it fused together mid-air, crashing into an unsuspecting multi-colour haired man creating a mining explosion. The air cleared as he came to them unscathed.
"Shit! Even with our combined attacks, we still can't harm him!" complained a mini gajeel as he grabbed his hair in frustration.
"I will definitely defeat him one day. That is my ultimate goal" a pinkette declared as she watched the man with a smile and glittering eyes.
"Onii-chan is so cool!" A tiny bluentte said as she ran up to him.
"So cool" "so strong" sting and rogue respectively said in admiration.
"You guys are doing great, no, in fact you are all more powerful than kids your age" he was proud of their efforts and and strength as dragonslayers.
"But we are still no match for you onii-chan" he sighed as he walked over to a saddened rogue who was already tearing up. Patting his affectionately, rogue looked up at him, a warm and assuring smile plastered on his elder brother's face.
"You don't have to be strong enough to defeat me, but rather be strong to protect your friends and family. Strength comes from the will to protect and not to defeat. All I'm saying is to do your best okay" Rogue wiped off his tears and answered postively with a small smile.
"Blah, blah, blah, I don't care about those things, I just want to defeat you and I will work my way to defeating you Korin onii-chan!"
"Okay Natsumi, I'll be waiting" he gave her a thumb up. Looking at the children, he clasped his hands with a lovely smile "Alright then, let's go get some food"
The all shouted cheerfully on hearing the word 'food', I mean they're dragon slayers after all.
Its been 3years since the incident involving Korin unleashing his powers. Ever since then he decided to help train the young dragon slayers. He loved these children and would do anything to keep them safe but he knew that wasn't the case here. He disagreed on taking acnologia head on and refused death to zeref saying that's not his reason for 'coming to earth'.
He knew about zeref and his little 'deeds' in the past, though he was not bothered by it saying its cool but scolding he as he went about it the wrong way. He grew so close with the dragons as he occasionally converse with them for a long while. The kids all loved him and even referred to him as Onii-chan, and with him training them, their magic grew drastically with Korin mainly in charge of their training, although they were also trained by their dragons too.
Korin was very protective of them, he even punched Igneel on the face one certain time because he was rough handling Natsumi and scolded him on how to treat a child most especially a girl and a certain white female dragon who laughed hard much to the red dragon's chargin.
On his free days he took them all to town to have fun and met a certain heartfilia woman who also took care of them, inviting them to her place anytime they feel like coming. They all loved him so much, and he never got mad at any one of them, not even the dragons...well except for Igneel of course.
Frequently visiting zeref and discussing some certain issues with him while keeping him at bay from killing anyone. And no, you may think they all fear him because of his might but that's not the case. He never for once showed off or threatened them with it. He earned their respect fair and square.
It was already night time now as the young slayers all slept in a cave, in a large pink mat that was laid right next to the wall of the cave. Korin watched them peacefully having their rest as he began to reminisce on the time they've spent together.
"Its been three years" he said, talking to no one in particular.
"It quite sad they are not aware of their future yet" he sat beside them as he rested his back on the cave wall. Watching as gajeel struggled under the thick blanket used to cover them.
"Five more months remaining for their departure. Four hundred years into the distant." He stroked a sleeping Wendy's hair who purred like a cat at his touch as her reaction served as entertainment to him.
"Well, four hundred year is not so long, at least not for me" Looking at the adorable children once more as he stopped all thoughts and action before he willed himself to sleep.
The next morning, after they had all eaten breakfast, the dragons watched on as the they all run laps around the forest. Korin lead them through the paths needed for the marathon as the dragon slayers followed suit, running for twenty minutes.
A light thud came from the back as Korin stopped immediately turning around as he saw Wendy on the ground. He rushed to picked her up, dusted her skirt as he saw a bruise on one of her knee.
Wendy began to cry from the pain of the bruise. Trying to comfort her, Korin healed her and the other children watched him in amazement. Wendy looked at her knee to see nothing there, just her skin. Cleaning her tears she smiled up to her big brother and cheerfully thanked him.
"Attaboy wendy" he stroked her hair affectionately as she purred at his touch.
"Um Korin Onii-chan, I think Wendy's a girl" a confused Natsumi said causing the other children to snicker at him.
"Oh right...I knew that" he said nervously as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Sorry Wendy" he apologised, she hugged him and giggled at his silliness.
"Alright then why don't we all take a break and go fishing!" he declared.
"I'm in!" Natsumi beamed.
"Cool!" sting and rogue added.
"if you say so" said an uninterested gajeel who was secretly eager to go fishing.
"Yay! Fishing with onii-chan!" Wendy dragged him as they all went to a river farther from their location.
On getting to the river, they stripped down to their undergarments and dove in save for Korin and Wendy, with the former still in this full clothes and the latter afraid of the water.
"Aren't you gonna go in Wendy?" Korin asked.
"Onii-chan, I'm scared to go in" a frightened Wendy shields herself with her big brother looking at the other children having fun.
"Come on Wendy, the water doesn't bite" natsumi assured, coming out from the water, she walked towards them.
"Huh, what are you talking about pinkie, this water is really dangerous. Weak girls like Wendy would drown instantly" gajeel fleered, making a scary face as Natsumi scowled at him. Wendy shrieked in fear
"Thanks for the help gajeel" she said with sarcasm "And don't call me pinkie metal head!" yelling at the iron dragon slayer.
"What did you call me flame breath?!" it was his turn to feel annoyed as she grinned in victory.
"Wow, for a dragon slayers, your ears sure are useless, M-E-T-A-L H-E-A-D" she spelt the last part out for him provoking him further.
"Here they go again" sting said watching them bicker and as they got ready to punch each other.
"Why you!" Gajeel ran out of the water rushing towards natsumi with his fist coated in his magic. Natsumi did the same, readying herself for the attack.
"Alright, that's enough you two" The older man caught off their battle as they stopped and scoffed at each other. Sighing, Korin took the terrified Wendy into his arms, walking towards the river as he gently but slowly placed Wendy into it, staying near her until she felt relaxed it.
"Okay you guys, here's your fishing rod" He hand each of them a fishing, a grumpy gajeel and Natsumi snatched the last two rods off his hand that had magically appeared on his hands. Korin was known to do extraordinary things, one most wizards can't make possible.
The sour mood turned bright as they all had fun and ate a lot of fish because some dragon slayers turned it into a fishing competition.
Five months later (July 6, X377)F
During these last few months, the Young dragon slayers had the time of their lives. They all played with their parent and of course their big brother who was always there for them.
Early that Morning, July 6th, Korin had them all washed up as he took them to town for a fun filled day. Playing all kinds of silly games, race events, eating contest, racing contest, sight seeing in different cities and soaring through the sky with their parents. Making them tired as they slept quite early that night.
"Thank you so much for everything you've done Korin" Weisslogia said gratefully as he and the other dragons held their child in their palms sleeping peacefully.
"You really did so much for us. I'm quite sure that they had a grear childhood, even though it wasn't long" Skiadrum said feeling a little sad about it.
"But on the good side they've groen in strength and that's a good thing" Metallicana added.
"Thank you so much for taking good care of my daughter Korin" Grandeeney looked at her child, then at korin "Sometimes she dreams about getting married to you when she grows older" She laughed as korin smiled at her "Well, I'll be waiting then"
"Are you serious?" Igneel asked him curiously "Because Natsumi also said the same thing" he revealed.
'My daughter is much cuter. Oh, maybe you could marry them both" They all laughed light-hearted at their children's silly remarks.
It is our greatesr luck to have crossed paths with you Korin, Thank you so much" Igneel said in deep appreciation towards the man as he smiled at all of them.
"Its okay you guys, its not like this is the final goodbye. We will meet in the future you know"
"He's right about that" Skiadrum said in awareness.
"Alright then, let's begin" they nodded as each one of them began to take flight moving to towards their destination. Korin began to run at lightning speed catching up to them and kept a steady pace until they reached their destination.
Landing on a clearing with no trees or bushes, up ahead was a huge metal gate with double doors, laced with blue and red rubies, two large polls supporting it on both sides.
A dark haired man and a blonde woman came up to them as they greeted each other.
"Yo zeref, Anna" Korin greeted.
"Hello Korin" Zeref returned his greeting.
"Korin-san, I missed you" Anna ran up to him and embraced him in a warm hug.
"Um...thanks?" he said, not sure of what to say.
Anna heartfilia was a beautiful woman with an hourglass shaped figure, her long blonde hair tied in a ponytail and had a side swept bangs in front, with two strands of hair draped by the side of her head. She was dressed in an elegant red and white robes with high collared cloak. She was a key hole blouse and a long dress (A/N: source from Fairytail fandom)
"Oh that's right, I've finished it Igneel" she brought a small bag out, opening it as she brought out a neatly woven white scaly scarf.
"This is Perfect. Just like i wanted it!" Igneel said as anna gave the scarf over to Korin as he took it and draped it round Natsumi neck.
"You're more of a softie than I remembered, Igneel-chan~" He sounded provocative as a tickmmark appeared on Igneel's head.
"Shut it rainbow head" Igneel fired back "Okay I'm sorry, let's just wrap things up okay" they all nodded.
"Alright, since Igneel is the only one to use 'Soul technique' I'll be linking you all, meaning whatever effect made on him will happen to the rest of you" Korin explained as he urged them to begin.
Um wait Korin, if you're the one linking them, won't you be pulled in too?" Anna asking with a worry filled eyes.
"Nope, it won't pull me in, thanks for worrying" he gave a her an assuring smile before turning serious.
Igneel performed the rituals as he was fully concentrated while the others looked at him. Moments later a red magic circle circle glowed on his right palm which carried his adoptive child. Seeing the queue, Korin eyes glowed lightly as he took control of the other dragons body each one of them now having the same magic circle with their specified colour.
Purple mist came out of their mouths as they rapidly began to shrienk in size, signalling the effect of the magic.
"Goodbye you all, thank you so much for the wonderful time we spent together" a tearful Anna said in a bow.
"Thanks to you too Anna heartfilia, you've done more than enough for us. Thank you" Igneel said.
"You're a blessing to us dragons. Thank you so much" Grandeeney said.
"We will always be grateful to you human friend" Metallicana said.
"Your good deeds will always be remembered" Weisslogia smiled.
"We'll meet someday in the stars...goodbye friend" Skiadrum ended as they all completely turned to mist leaving a teary Anna as she brawled her eyes out. They all smiled at her, igneel gave a nod at zeref and korin.
The children floated mid air as large magical circles appeared in front of them, as the mist of the dragons were absorbed into the bodies of their children making them jerk slightly at the new residents in them.
"It is time Anna heartfilia" A calm voice called her as she looked over to zeref and nodded, cleaning her eyes, she walking farther from them to the huge eclipse door. Flaring her magical powers, she launched twelve zodiac keys toward the door as they made it to the key holes awaiting them.
"Korin, what time is it?" zeref asked as he walked closer to him.
"Its the early morning of July 7th" he answered.
A creaking sound of metal was heard as both men looked over to female mage, taking off, Korin ran over to her as he pulled her back and leaped further away from the gate.
"What are you doing Korin?" a confused Anna asked him.
"If you had stayed there any longer, you would have been sucked into the future" she gasped at the response and immdetialey the wind picked on as everything began to get drawn towards the fully functional gate of eclipse.
The floating children began to get sucked in as they all watched them depart from their presence as Anna muttered a final goodbye towards the sleeping dragon slayers as they disappeared into the gates. A stray tear ran down her cheek as she left Korin's embrace and called back her keys successfully shutting the gate.
"Are you sure you would be okay Anna?" Anna cleaned her tears and smiled at him, assuring him that she was fine.
Giving her a final hug as she broke down in tears if not ever seeing him again but he promised to look after her descendants. Emptying her tanks in her eyes, she went over to zeref who thanked her also for all her help in treating the children nicely and helping them when needed.
Giving them her final goodbye, she left the two men who looked at each other.
"Korin, I will go my own path" zeref said, leaving no room for arguments.
"I knew you would say that but that's alright, we all have our own path to choose" zeref smiled for the first time that day as he turned to leave.
"Thank you for everything...Big brother" Those words hit Korin like a ton of bricks as he felt happiness course through his body.
"Anytime...little brother" grinned at him as he watched the retreating figure of zeref disappeared.
"Now then, let's go into the future shall we?!"
