Chapter 4: Sting Eucliffe, The Dragon Slayer


"Hi, minna~~!" Sting greeted entering the guild, catching the attention of the whole guild. Making his way to the bar counter, Mira greeted him with a smile.

"Hi Sting-kun, what are you doing in Magnolia?" Mira asked acting as if she had no idea.

"I just finished a mission with Rogue but he wanted to go ahead first, and we were just passing by. So why not drop by! I thought. So here I am!" Sting said as he replayed his journey, playing on with Mira's act.

"Oh okay, Natsu is right there if you wanna have a fight with him" Mira said directing him to the sullen fire mage. Currently drowning away his sorrows and on his 3rd serving. I guess now I know what's going on with me…since Mira and Happy explained it to me. Now the only problem is how to confess… Natsu thought as he drank his fire.

"Hi Natsu-san~" Sting greeted, waving at his fellow dragon slayer/rival/idol. Natsu gave a grunt of acknowledgment, signaling Sting that wasn't in the mood. Maybe I could just do it casually… Natsu wondered, drifting of to his subconscious. Sting stared at Natsu's back in disbelief, knowing that Natsu was ignoring him. Sting began to think of ways to get the mage's attention. Although, it was quite comical to see Fairy Tail's resident matchmaker and his own partner to drill in the idea that he was in love with Lucy. In other words, his mate, It would have been easier if they just said that Lucy was my mate Natsu thought, thinking that humans used dragon terms like mate instead of love.

Let's try this… Sting thought, waving his hand in the air, conjuring a small beam of light and aimed it at the fire mage's skull. The beam of light shot off, directly striking the pink haired mage's head, not doing any serious damage to the mage.

Maybe I could ask Mira… Natsu thought, taking another sip of his whiskey. Then again…maybe not… He added on later, realizing that Mira could completely go overboard just to say 'I love you Lucy'.

Sting sighed, with Natsu still in his own world, Sting decided to conjure up another plan to gain his attention. But, coincidently, Natsu's mate decided to walk past him to walk over to where Levy was situated. Glancing briefly at the blonde beauty, a light bulb flashed over his head. Hehehehe, this will surely get his attention Sting thought.

Feeling an arm wrap around her shoulders, Lucy yelped and jumped in the spot. Looking for the owner of the arm, she saw the guild master of Sabertooth sniffing her neck. "KYAHHHH! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Lucy screamed as she struggled to get out of his grip.

"Your partner smells soo sweet Natsu-san." Sting commented, breathing in the sweet scent of strawberries and vanilla. Natsu only spared a glance at the blonde haired dragon slayer. Maybe I should bring her flowers and ask her out, then confess… Natsu thought looking around for inspiration around the guild, his sight coincidentally passing Sting.

Sting had a blank expression plastered on his face, the type that said 'are you serious'. Sting kept a firm grip on the flailing blonde beauty, "I wonder if she tastes just as sweet" Sting commented, giving one long lick along Lucy's face. Said blonde shuddering as the rough pad of his tongue came in contact with her skin.

Natsu, hearing the statement Sting said, had a burning aura around him; the atmosphere around him raising a couple of degrees. His eyes giving a deadly glare at the man near his mate. It took three seconds for Natsu to pull Lucy away from Sting and into his arms and to completely pulverize the blonde dragon slayer enough for him to send him to a hospital for about 7 months.

"T-thanks Natsu…" Lucy sniffled under his embrace.

"It's okay now Luce, your away from the big blonde bastard." Natsu said still glaring at the crumpled form of the dragon slayer and Lucy giggling at Natsu's choice of words.
