Hey guys its Rambles here with the next chapter of Dragons Clan! and a response to a couple of reviews posted on the last chapter. First off, I will admit that I got the idea for Dragons Clan while reading 'Love Rejection and a Disappearance' by Shadizsato. It was a brilliant idea and I wanted to write a version of my own. Now I'm not trying to copy and I'm not claiming the idea is mine. All credit goes to Shadizsato for that. And I strongly recomend going and reading 'Love, rejections and a disppearance' if you haven't already.
Secondly I figured I should explain why the girls I stated last chapter are on the list. Levy you'll find out about next chapter, as it serves a good method for explaining stuff. Juvia is in love with Gray, so she wouldn't want to be with Natsu that much (That and I kinda prefer Gruvia to NaJu, sorry NaJu fans) Bisca is married with a kid. And I simply just don't like Minerva.
With that out of the way, Lets get on with chapter 3!

6 years later

For the first few days people hadn't been too worried, None of them had thought Natsu would be gone too long. But then the days turned into weeks, the weeks turned into months, the months turned into years, and the years turned into 6 more. And with each increasing time scale the members of Fairy Tail had truly realised; he wasn't coming back.

The guild had never been the same since Natsu had left, the remaining members had realised just how much the fire dragon slayer had meant to the guild. But two women had taken his disappearance the hardest; Mira, who had never smiled since Natsu left. And Lucy, who had forgiven Mira after her outburst/breakdown on the day Happy had flown in with the letter. Lucy had tried to fill the emotional gap Natsu had left by dating other men, but after a short while she would be reminded of Natsu and the very thought of other men would disgust her. After a month of this she gave up on finding a new man and instead bonded with Mira, who revealed to the celestial spirit mage her feelings for Natsu. Lucy had been devastated when Mira had told her, apologising for driving Natsu away. Mira had told the blonde that she had forgiven her long before Lucy knew of her feelings.

It was a couple of days before the 6th anniversary of Natsu disappearance, and Mira was getting ready to go lock herself in her room for the next few days, as she always did when this time of year came around. As she began to clean up the guild a stray tear rolled down her cheek, before Mira could stop herself her eyes seemed to overflow with tears as her knees gave out. But before she hit the floor a strong pair of arms wrapped around her frame and a pair of hands ran through her snowy white hair. Mira looked up at the figure to see locks of salmon pink hair and black onyx eyes, while a soothing voice filled her ears "No more crying Mira, you've cried for long enough, and your too beautiful to cry" Mira tensed, hoping her ears weren't playing tricks on her. Mira said nothing and the figure continued to sooth her.

The next morning Mira awoke to find a cushion under head and a tablecloth over her like a blanket, her thoughts reeled as recalled what had happened the night before, trying to work out if he really did return.

The other members of Fairy Tail were all surprised to see Mira in the guild hall, for she usually didn't show up around this time of year. There was even more surprise when Lucy turned up, for neither of the girls would be anywhere near Fairy Tail, but here they both were. Lucy went straight to Mira "Did he come to you last night or was I dreaming?" She asked. Mira simply nodded "He came to me, I'm sure it was him" she said, more hopeful than certain.

That night Mira was walking home, the rain falling around her quickly soaking her clothes. But Mira didn't care, she was trying to work out if she had dreamed her encounter the night before. As she got to her house she saw a figure sat on the front step, hunched over. Mira couldn't see the persons face, but based on the way he was sitting, it was a man outside her door. As she approached the figure looked up at her and Mira had to pinch herself to be sure she wasn't dreaming. It couldn't be him, yet here he was, sat outside her door. Mira took one step, two steps before she fell against him, fresh tears falling down her cheeks "It's okay Mira, I'm not going anywhere" he said. Mira looked at him before he continued "Come on, lets get you inside, Elfman would kill me if he knew I kept you out here" He said as he lead her inside.

Mira followed him upstairs, before stopping at her bedroom door, he turned to go until a pair of arms wrapped around his waist "Stay with me" Mira's voice quavered. He turned to look at her, smiling before heading inside her room. Mira headed into her bathroom and changed into a pair of pajamas, before heading back into her room to see him leaning against her bathroom doorway. "You know my bed has room for both of us" she said timidly "So long as you stay on your side" she added quickly. He chuckled as he removed his shirt, revealing his muscled chest and scars running along his chest. Mira said nothing as he climbed into her bed. Her heart hammered in her chest, she felt like she was about to burst before she turned over to look at him, as she did she noticed he was asleep. Mira sighed before going to sleep herself.

Her sleep was rudely interrupted the next morning by her sisters screams, Mira shot out of bed, thinking they were being attacked, before she saw Lisanna, her jaw open and a single finger pointing at him. He chuckled "It's okay Lisanna, I'm not going anywhere" Something in his voice must have flipped a switch in the two women, as they both scrambled to get dressed and clinged to him, either his arm or his shirt, they both refused to let go as he lead them to the guild hall.

At the guild everyone was quiet, for the day was the 6th anniversary of Natsu's disappearance, and they were all in respectful silence. This was rudely interrupted by someone kicking open the guild doors. Everyone lept out of their seats, ready to attack whoever dared to barge in on such a somber day for the Fairy Tail guild. Their anger quickly faded as they saw Mirajane and Lisanna and the man between them, his salmon pink hair, black onyx eyes, the scaly scarf round his neck and best of all; his signature grin plastered on his face. No one said a word until a blue blur of fur smashed into the man's chest "NATSU!" Happy shouted
