The next morning Natsu woke up. He wondered if it was dream that he had or was there really someone that came to him getting the cloak from him. He looked down and to his surprise he saw that the cloak was gone from his arms. He wasn't too convinced that someone came in the room so then he got off the bed and began to look around for the cloak. He couldn't find it but then he saw a journal that was on the table. He wondered where the journal came from so he went to it only to see a note on it.

If you want to talk to me then you have add a drop of your blood on the first page. After you do that you can write any message you want.

Natsu blinked at the note that was written to him. He then had a soft smile, since lately he had been lonely and since being on this quest wasn't making him feel any better he figured that it would be best to talk this person. He cut his finger then he put some of his blood on the first page of the book.

He saw that there was a feather pen and began to write.

Hey there, I'm Natsu Dragneel. What's your name?"

He waited for a few moments but nearly dropped the journal when he saw the message he had written had been replaced with a new message.

Hello Dragneel, I am Neona Orlando.

That's a pretty name.

Thank you.

May I ask how you know who I am?

You took my cloak when I was coming back to get it. When I saw that you had it, I followed you to this place.

Sorry I didn't know belonged to anyone, it was just laying there.

It's alright, it's not like you ruined it.

Hey is it alright if we can meet?

Um I don't know, maybe after we get to know each other first.

Okay then, fair deal

Thank you.

Hey Neona?

Yes?

Have I seen you before?

Not during the day. In fact you saw me last night.

I did?

Yes. That's when I got my cloak back

That was you? You have such beautiful green eyes.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

For most of the morning Natsu was writing messages with Neona. To him it was nice to have some to talk to but he wondered if he would really get to meet this person but he didn't want to overstep since they were just writing each other on the first day.

Hey Neona, I'll be back in a few. I'm going to get something to eat.

Okay then, I'll just wait for you to come back, Natsu.

Natsu put the journal down and went out to get something to eat. He soon came back with cooked fish that he was looking forward to eating. He sat down at the table with the food and the journal ready to write again.

I'm back

Welcome back, how was your meal?

It's fish that I cooked.

That sounds good. If I could, I would cook for you.

Oh that would awesome!

Glad to know that

For the whole day Natsu was writing. He just couldn't get enough of writing to his new friend. True he didn't meet the person physically but they have been talking so much as if they were childhood friends. Natsu learned that Neona was clearly a female byt the way she wrote and it was like he wanted to keep her to write to him.

When it was night time Natsu was getting sleepy but he wanted to keep talking to Neona.

Natsu, you should get some sleep.

Aw, but I don't want to go to sleep. I want to keep talking to you.

Don't worry, anytime you write in this journal I will respond.

Okay then. I will go to sleep but I still want to be able to see you.

I'll think about it.

Really?! That's great!

You really want to meet me that bad?

Yes I do. I want to see you and be able to hear your voice.

Alright then, I promise that you will hear me but you won't see me.

Alright then.

Thank you for understanding. I honestly don't just talk to anyone but I will show myself to you soon.

Alright then.

Alright Natsu, get some sleep. I want you to get fired up when the sun comes up.

Alright, whatever you say. Good night.

Good night

Natsu closed the journal but couldn't help but hug it to his chest. He smiled then left to his room with the journal in his hands. When he got to the room it was dark but he sensed that there was something was off. He looked at the bed only to see a dark figure sitting on the bed looking at him.

"What are you?"

The figure just looked at him then vanished. Natsu blinked but sensed that everything was back to normal but he wanted to know who the shadow figure was. He shrugged and laid on the bed with the journal in his arms.

In the middle of the night Natsu woke up from a dream that he wouldn't call a nightmare or a good dream. He sat up on the bed then felt that the journal was in his arms. He hugged it close to him then he looked ahead of him to see the same shadow figure standing in the doorway looking at him.

"Who are you?"

"..."

"Wait, are you the Night Demon?"

The figure nodded and Natsu raised a brow.

"That's odd, you're harmless. Totally different than what the people here said about you."

The figure's eyes widen then it looked away. Natsu smiled softly then he saw the shadow figure walked towards him. Natsu couldn't help but reach up and feel the shadow's face. He was surprised that the figure was a person, with smooth skin and their emerald green eyes were looking at him but not in a deep into your soul way but rather in curiosity.

Natsu felt up the shadows face. He felt long silk hair, smooth skin and thin horns that were curled up. Natsu was smiling in excitement then he brought the shadow close to him and kissed the shadow. The shadow blinked and placed a clawed hand on Natsu's chest but didn't stop him.

After the kiss Natsu let the shadow go.

"So are you staying?"

"..."

"You can stay, I won't tell anyone."

The shadow looked at him then it left into the darkness of the home. Natsu lowered his head then laid back down on the bed.

"I hope we get to see each other soon."

With that he fell back to sleep.

AN: Hey everyone! I hope that this was a good chapter and for those of you who know what time of the year it is, Merry Christmas to you all!
