I do not own Fairy tail Hiro mashima does

Side note this particular story is told from Natsu's point of view, I wanted to do this so that some comical parts of the story would be easier

I received instant Karma for My sudden remark as a certain red-headed requip mage grabbed Me by my hair and screamed, "How dense are you!? This man almost lost his family and now you want to fight him!?"

"Excuse me miss, but I don't think I can decline. I do need a lift of spirits, and a friendly sparring match is just what the doctor ordered," Doragon interrupted. Bad move I thought, Erza was pissed I knew she was not in the mood for an interruption.

"Stay out of this!" Erza screamed sword in hand pointed directly at Doragon's throat. I expected him to cower in fear, but as I wriggled away from the enraged Erza I realized he was laughing.

"Well I guess you are my first opponent then since you dared to turn your sword to me," He said. Is he, teasing her? I thought bewildered. Whatever he was doing he got what he wanted. A few days later, at Doragon's request, swords were drawn and the new magnolia arena was full. Apparently a stranger challenging the strongest woman wizard in the nation was big news. I sat next to Lucy eyes watching the two standing in the sand. A gong sounded and the clang of metal on metal resonated through the stadium. Feleis, Doragon's wife, and Orao, their adopted daughter, were on the edge of their seats, with energy so great you wouldn't believe they were on their deathbeds almost a week ago.

I watched closely as Erza, noticing the golden flame enveloping Doragon, requipped into her flame empress armor, or at least tried. Doragon brought his sword around hard a large single edged blade about three and a half feet long slightly tapered at the back and ending in a sharp tip that angled about 35 degrees forward from the straight front edge. With lightning speed, he smashed the fault edge of his great two handed sword into Erza's torso disrupting the requip and forcing her into… a dress? She tried to land on her feet, but the high heels she wore twisted and dropped her onto the ground. Again she tried to requip, and this time Doragon stood back; obviously not wanting to force her to have to fight in heels. No don't let her get the flame empress armor! I screamed in my head knowing that Doragon's flame attacks would be useless against it. As I thought this though Doragon's fire disappeared. Confused I looked closer and saw that a strange aura had taken the fire's place, it was almost like the air outlining doragon had become a fisheye lens, Doragon slammed his sword into Erza. No flames to block the Fire empress armor faltered, and she felt the blow full force. Erzajumped back and requipped in midair landing in her nakagami armor. Welp game over Doragon. I knew that the Nakagami armor breaks the laws of magic and scatters it, Doragon might as well be fighting with a stick.

To my surprise He didn't falter, even though I specifically warned him about this armor. With a closer look he was, smirking? I shook my head as he charged. Suddenly the jutsu shiki surrounding the field turned opaque and the lacrima vision activated. Why is the field acting like this it only blocks vision temporarile if its hit by too much energy! Watching the screen Doragon's Aura was gone but the cracking ground below him revealed that his power had not. The field could not hold all of the energy back as Doragon screamed, "Rapture rage!"

Erza was requiping again, she knew something big was about to hit. Her adamantine armor was on the field as I watched extremely confused. Why is she wearing that armor? Nakagami would easily dissipate magical attacks and with far less strain! I thought. Suddenly Doragon was in front of her and her shields locked together as a massive blow slammed into it. She was flung into the wall of the arena which shook with the impact, her armor shattered leaving her in the shirt and shorts she wore under it. She was unconscious, barely breathing, and I smelled blood. Doragon immediately pointed his hand toward the grounded fairy queen, and I screamed as I sensed power gathering in his palm, "No Doragon! You'll kill her!" I jumped into the barrier as it fell, automatically reacting to the cease in movement of Doragon's opponent, and tried to tackle Doragon, he side stepped and proceded to blast Erza with his gathered energy, I shrieked as my friend disappeared in the light, my head felt fuzzy, I couldn't bear to think of what Doragon had just done, and I cried. Suddenly there was a hand on my shoulder, I whimpered as Lucy grabbed my vest and yanked me up to face her.

"Natsu Dragneel why are you crying like a small child!" Lucy said. Strange I never realized how much Lucy sounded just like Erza at times.

"Because Doragon just killed Erza, Lucy!"

"One I'm not dead and two I'm not Lucy open your damn eyes!"

I opened my eyes slowly and saw the red haired requip mage glaring at me her wounds gone, and her normal armor on. Doragon was laying on the ground breathing heavily.

"But I just saw him kill you!" I exclaimed.

"Actually I healed her. I was using a technique known as dimensional restore, it also fixed her armor, sorry about shattering it by the way," Doragon said apologetically.

"You should have told me while I was trying to tackle you!" I said glaring at him.

"Yes sorry about that, but that last blow unintentionally left her critically injured, so I had to act fast," he replied.

"If you had a healing technique why didn't you use it when your family was half dead?" Erza said the thought resonating in my head as well.

"I wasn't in good enough shape to do so. As it is I may not be able to walk for a bit here and I was in fairly good condition for this one. With how I was then it would have killed me and the one I would be trying to heal," he explained as he started to sit up.

I ended up carrying Doragon to where he and his family were staying. About halfway there he was able to walk again and we began to talk.

"So how does it feel being the first guild member to topple the fairy queen titania Erza?" I asked elbowing him in the shoulder.

"Well after hearing that I guess pretty good, but seriously I can't possibly be the first."

"Oh but you are indeed the first, at least first since she claimed her spot as strongest woman in the guild. Evergreen turned her to stone once, but only because she caught her off guard, and it was not in a fight," I replied grinning, "you are also the first to shatter the Adamantine armor with a physical attack, phantom lord did it once with the magic cannon named Jupiter, which would have turned the guild hall and probably about half the city to dust, but even that thing didn't cause as much physical damage to her as your attack did."

"well I do have some insane strength in Rapture rage mode, but outclassing a city busting weapon, that I didn't expect," he said surprised, "and please don't remind me that I almost killed her with that attack."

We reached the inn moments later said our goodbyes, and I headed to Lucy's place. As usual her window was open and I quietly jumped in. I was looking around the house when I started to have a very unsettling feeling in my bones. She was nowhere to be found. Then I noticed something stuck in the wall.

I walked over to the object which turned out to be a four-inch dagger impaling a piece of paper to the wall. Quickly I dislodged the dagger and inspected it, it had an intricate silver handle with a ruby encrusted guard. As I stared at it something wet landed on my foot, looking down a red spot had splattered on my sandal clad right foot. Looking back to the dagger I noticed the blood that clung to the blade, and I shuddered, realizing the blood smelled like Lucy.

Looking at the note I read it aloud my voice trembling.

Evening salamander,

I left you a little present in thanks for the courtesy of not being there for your dear Lucy. Her keys you may notice are still on the counter, do please treasure them as they are likely the last gift she will ever leave you. I hope you inform your guild that they will have to go on without her. If they ever wish to see her again, then don't be afraid to dig up her casket, as she will be dead in two weeks.

Sincerely

Mard Geer.
