Ice Demon and Fire Dragon Chp.4

Fairytailguild1 here with my latest update, so in this chapter we get Jellal and Meredy's decision, we find out about Fairytail's newest resident couple and Natsu has to tell Ur everything about her daughter from the good to the bad. Anyway I know I say this every time but thanks for the reviews and favourites every little helps. Now on with the chapter.

"Natsu…how…how do you know my daughter? Where is she?" a teary eyed Ur asked her voice shook at the very thing she just asked. Jellal and Meredy looked on in amazement right before them was their friend's mother who they thought to be long dead.

A silence took place and it continued to grow until broke "God dammit Natsu answer me! She shouted angrily as while her voice broke due to her sobbing at the same time. "I'm sorry I should have told you when I found out who you were you deserve to know the truth," Natsu then began to explain everything about Ultear from manipulating the council to being a member of Grimoire Heart and about that night with the dragons how she sacrificed herself. "Ultear used a spell to trade what her life was worth to reverse time, and even though her life was only worth a minute, that single minute was enough save the lives of this world by giving us a foothold to fightback" he said with a slight smile.

His smile then vanished when Ur walked up to him and slapped him across the "your damn right I deserved to know for all that time I thought my daughter was dead only now to learn she lived but ended up dying before I could see even if it was only one last time, do you have any idea how I feel right now?" she said as she began to beat her fists into his chest tears dropping onto it.

"Of course I know how you feel, I don't know who my parents are or even if they're alive, it's more or less the same with Igneel and…" before he continued Ur look up into Natsu's onyx eyes to see the tears form pools at the corners of his eyes "and I've lost good friends throughout my life, though we may have started out as enemies she became my friend, she helped me become stronger, and still… still I wasn't strong enough to save her." Natsu could no longer hold back his tears, in that moment it was like someone had opened a flood gate as his tears seemed to be never ending.

"I'm s-sorry, if had been stronger I could have saved her, she could have been here today, it …all my fault I'm sorry" he continued to say it over and over hi tears still not stopping. Ur could hear the sincere emotion in his voice, how it shook with sadness at the mention of every word "her death has affect him just as much as me he really did care about her, even though they hardly knew each other." Taking her hands she placed them around Natsu bringing him into a hug and reached her head ep to Natsu's and kissed him on the cheek much to his surprise.

"It's alright Natsu I don't blame you" Ur said with her sweet smile the tears still rolling down her face "I don't blame you because you and your guild helped bring my daughter back to the light, thank-you, thank you for being there for her and for being her friend, all of you thank you" the two just stood there for the next few moments in the embrace tears streaming down both their faces. They broke the embrace when Jellal spoke up "excuse me my name is Jellal I was one of your daughters travel companions and friends, there is someone I'd like for you to meet" bringing forth Meredy he stood her in front of Ur and then continued "this is Meredy, Ultear took her in and raised her in as a girl and raised her as her own.

Meredy was about to speak up when Ur grabbed her and brought her into a hug saying "to think I already have a grandchild at this age" she said with a humorous tone, the statement caused Meredy to start tearing up but laugh at what she said and looking into Ur's eyes replied "yeah I guess so" smiling as she said this.

While Ur and Meredy talked to each other about Ultear, Natsu started talking with Jellal, "so now that you're free what will you do know, will you join us or continue to rough up the dark guilds?" Natsu asked his blue haired friend. "As much as I'd like to join Fairytail and even if I have a clean slate the crimes I know I committed will never wash from my conscious, but I would like for you to take care of Meredy, she's at a difficult time after losing Ultear she hasn't been herself so maybe you and Ur could look after her"

Natsu nodded then looking up into the night sky he said don't worry we'll all make Meredy feel welcome, oh and if you plan on leaving I'd hurry cause if Erza sees you..." "Yeah I know I'll never be allowed to leave, I can already hear in my head repent, repent" both men let out a sigh at this and laughed at each other's expressions, "remember Jellal though I find hard to believe myself even amongst the guild I still consider one of my closest friends and family, should you ever need help just come calling" Natsu said then giving one of his signature grins.

Took back by the dragonslayer's remark that the blue haired man couldn't help be happy, as all his past interaction with Natsu came back, he remembered the tower of heaven incident and how he helped Natsu defeat Zero, Jellal knew that he and Natsu had become friends but didn't ever think for a second that the salamander would consider him part of his family it wanted to make him cry but for the sake of his pride he didn't. The two wizards shook hands and Jellal began to walk off into the distance when he turned to face Natsu with smile and raised his hand up and taking his index finger and thumb made the Fairytail symbol and the dragonslayer responded in kind.

Natsu then began to think "good luck my friend, may our paths cross again." Natsu turned to face Meredy and told her what Jellal wanted for her, as the three walked into the guild Natsu shouted out "HEY EVERYONE WE GOT ANOTHER NEW MEMBER!" Everyone turned to face him and to a lot of the members shock mostly the Tenrou group they saw Meredy. "Hey Gramps can she join" an enthusiastic Natsu asked "what about the fact she's a criminal?" Makarov said with no emotion in his voice. Upon hearing this caused Meredy to frown, "wow gramps way to harsh, besides she is no longer a criminal, she is my friend so I called in a favour and now both hers and Jellal's records are clean,"

As Natsu said this the smile along with a pink hue appeared on her face again, "very well I'll make my decision now…Hpmh" Meredy then screamed out of pain and embarrassment as Makarov slapped her ass, "you pass my girl welcome to…" but before he finished he was knocked out cold, no not Laxus or Natsu but by Ur who brought her foot down in a swift kicking fashion upon the masters head yelling "DIE YOU PERVERTED SACK OF SHIT, DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH LIKE THAT AGAIN!" Everyone in the guild sweat dropped at the sight of what Ur had done to their master.

After Meredy got her guild mark the welcome party continued the only way Fairytail knew how to, tables, chairs and the occasional body flying across the guild as a full scale guild brawl occurred between the usual suspects of Natsu, Gray, Gajeel and Elfman. "Wow they're a bunch of kids" Laxus exclaimed letting out a chuckle. He was wearing his usual purple shirt with his fur lined draped over his shoulders, he also wore plain black trousers with black suit shoes and had rock'n'roll music blasting from his magic headphones.

"Come on Laxus I know you want join the fight as well, go on ahead" Mirajane said while looking at the blonde dragonslayer. Laxus' attention was then drawn to Mira who was now looking back and forth between Natsu and Ur with a demonic smile on her face. "Mira please don't tell your thinking what I think you are?" he questioned her worryingly.

"You bet I am, and don't try to stop me, after all I just want them to be happy like us" she said playfully tilting her head to the left winking at him. "Wasn't going too, and did you forget about our announcement?"

The two then made their way up to the stage and once there Laxus cleared his throat into the Microphone gaining the entire guilds attention even Makarov as he had seemingly come back to the land of the living. "Can I have everyone's attention for a minute, as of recent" He stopped and took a deep breath and then continued "Me and Mirajane have started dating!"

The words to a few seconds to seep into the other guild members until "what!" they all shouted in unison. Quite a few of the older guild members sent Laxus a look filled with hate only to have it returned to them Tenfold as both Laxus and Mira sent the most demonic glare that any of them had seen and simultaneously shouted to the guild "got a problem with that!"

The rest of the guild just waved their hands at inhuman speeds to signify they didn't. Cheers then erupted from the crowd after showing how happy they were for the two, as the cheers continued Laxus began to think to himself "I hope your ready Natsu, because Fairytail's match maker is on the loose and won't stop until she succeeds"

As the party began to end Meredy and Ur were faced with the problem of somewhere to stay, Juvia told Meredy to stay with her since they had become good friends just before the G.M.G, Natsu offered to let Ur stay at her until she had money enough to rent a place of her own, but before she could respond both Erza and Gray stood between.

Erza then said "it's alright you don't have to stay with him you can stay with me" finishing what she said she then shot a death glare at Natsu who was getting into a fight with Gray "you think I'm going to let her stay with you flame brain, I don't trust you as far as I can throw you!" he said angrily butting heads with the fire mage who responded with "you wanna go snow fairy and like you could throw me so that means you do trust me" he quickly retorted as the two started taking lumps out of each other.

Ur couldn't help but laugh at the antics of her pupil and Natsu she could see from how they acted they were really good friends, she then interrupted the two "Gray I don't ever recall allowing you to make my decisions for me, my mind is made up and neither you or miss Scarlet will sway me otherwise," she said with a stern expression showing that she was absolute about her choice. Gray was about to continue his argument when Ur suddenly collapsed onto the ground.

"Ur, Ur what's wrong?" barely conscious the woman could only mumble. "Don't worry she'll be fine the doctor said something like this would happen only I didn't expect it to happen so soon" Natsu assured Gray with a steady voice. "What do you mean?" The ice make wizard questioned worryingly, Natsu smirked at Gray causing several tick marks to grow on his forehead. Gray then lunged towards Natsu grabbing him by his scarf "what's so funny asshole!" he shouted the tone of his voice deepening.

Gray was about to firmly plant a fist firmly in Natsu's face when he felt an extreme pain in his stomach causing him to drop to his knees after the dragonslayer had removed his fist from his attackers gut his face bearing a cross expression. "What part of you makes you think that I believe any of this to be funny?" "She needs someone to donate large quantities of magic to her, and for some strange reason my magic fits the bill perfectly, now calm the fuck down ice-queen and let me get started." Natsu continued on in one of his rare serious tones that occasionally caused a shiver to go up even Erza's spine.

Walking over to Ur Natsu knelt down beside her and drew a magic circle above her that cover her entire upper body, next taking the palms of his hands he started focus his magic into a singularity (one specific spot, like stings holy nova attack) placing it over the magic circle. The other members could feel the pressure build up in the room, after he form a small ball of focus contained multi-coloured flames, the ball drifted downward to the centre of the circle before it became encased in ice and entered Ur's body causing her to wake up from the jolt it caused.

"What happened, why am I on the floor?" Ur started questioning while still in a daze only to be answered by Natsu who was panting in exhaustion, "your hahaha magic levels hahaha went below critical" the dragonslayer said trying to catch his breath. "So it happened again huh?" Ur questioned letting a heavy sigh out. Catching his breath Natsu offered her his hand to help her up saying, "don't sweat it, it will supposedly only happen another 2-3 times, right" smiling he bared his toothy grin as usual as to lighten her mood which it did.

Smiling then taking his hand to stand Ur then dusted herself off to look around and saw all the guild members' worried faces dissipate, seeing that the others were worried for her well-being only caused the smile on her face to intensify. Natsu's attention then immediately turned to the ice-wizard still on the floor partially because of the punch he received and partly because he was stunned at what he had just witnessed.

Natsu's expression was calm as they stared at each other for a few seconds then he spoke "now do you see why she needs to stay with me?" Before Gray could answer to show he understood the familiar voice of a blue feline came from behind Natsu "He loooves her" Happy said trying to contain his laughter by placing his small blue paws over his mouth, hearing this caused the dragonslayer's entire body to burn red of embarrassment "I do not" Salamander quickly retorted to his feline friend.

"Our noses say otherwise" Laxus called out in the background referring to the collecting group of dargonslayers and Mirajane. Looking up at them Natsu saw Gajeel and Laxus with the two biggest shit-eating smug grins he had ever seen, while Wendy face was scarlet red and Mira being Mira had her hands clasped together, eyes sparkling off in some day dream picturing Natsu and Ur's future together.

Natsu didn't bother question the fact that Laxus also referred to Mira as he well knew when it came to matters of relationship type things the she-devil had a better nose than most. Too embarrassed to continue on for the night Natsu grabbed Ur by the hand and told her and Happy that it was time to go.

Somewhere just outside of Magnolia town in the forest:

Upon entering his house Ur was surprised to see what she did, from the outside it looked like a crumby shack, but on the inside well it looked better than most houses she'd ever been in. "Make yourself at home, and don't worry I had some stuff brought here for you on a favour someone owed me," hearing this snapped her out of the daze she was in and caused he to ask "where is the bath?" Motioning his hand to the door at the back left corner of the room she gathered some clothes and towels and entered the bathroom to take a shower.

As she got into the bath allowing her body to sink into the warm water she began thinking about the events of the last 3 days or so and how it went "first he finds and saves me, then he saves me again and now after only knowing him for 3 days I've joined his guild, met one of my students, learned the other is okay, found out about my daughter's life the good and the bad and… started feeling for someone other than that asshole all those years ago." The last part she thought to herself with a scowl and utter hatred in her voice as she remembered about the man she thought she loved.

Her hatred toward the man then disappeared when she heard the voice of the man who she now had immense feelings for as he spoke "Ur when you're done in there if you want I can make some food for us, oh by the way you can have the bed" hearing the kindness in his voice every time he talked to her just seemed to melt the walls she had put up all those years and only made her wonder was it time to try again.

And end chapter I know not much happened but in terms of the next chapter we'll be in the capital of Fiore as both Natsu and Ur take on a mission together without happy for some reason. Mira however still trying to play match-maker forces Laxus to come with her to crocus because of an envelope she gave to Ur before leaving the guild. Next chapter will be the longest so far probably 4000 words at max. Thanks for comments and suggestions and because of work and other ideas the next chapter should be up around sometime between the 23-27 of May until then bye
