"Nashi! No running through the hallway…" Luce warned our daughter, I lounged on the bed with my infant son pressed closely to my chest, his mouth latched onto my bare skin; the kid is strange, however, Luce likes to do the same thing with her mouth to my body so I'm used to it.

I heard our daughter giggle and continue to defy her mother's orders, this caused me to chuckle as my wife stalked down the passage with a scowl.

"You better not be setting anything on fire!" She yelled crossly, after Nashi developed her Dragon Slayer skills she has been interested in trying to light her fist up, this usually causes something to be set on fire.

Unlike her who did not inherit my Dragon lungs she is not able to draw in the fire, which will force me away from my son and eat the fire before it spreads.

I smoothed out his blonde hair as he whimpered from his sensitive hearing, I gulp nervously…not another dragon slayer I hope, one is enough.

I heard Nashi laugh before racing into the room jumping onto my leg as I nudged the blanket off. A tumbling of silky pink hair brushed past as she tried to hide herself beneath the covers acting as my body, I rolled my eyes turning to look back at my son.

"Your sister made mommy angry," I kissed his forehead my scarf sliding across his nostrils.

My son licked my heated skin before sneezing, I watch in mortification as he sneezed small rays of fire that touched my chest.

All hope is gone now, "Luce…honey, I have something to tell you," I seriously hope she won't be angry, after the development of Nashi's powers our life got exceedingly difficult and now with my son…and if he's anything like me I'm not sure if I'll have any hair once I reach thirty.

My beautiful wife walked into the room glaring opposingly at the small form hiding underneath the sheets it would have worked a lot better if Nashi wasn't giggling.

"Yes Natsu," she flicked her blonde hair away, jezz, its like seeing the sun for the first time, she truly is magnificent.

"I err-have some good news and bad news," I bit my lip trying not to act nervous, but Lucy will not be happy when she finds out our little Igneel isn't so much further from his grandfather, I know she was hoping he wouldn't turn out like me after all the fire complaints we get. When he was born and we saw because he had blonde hair that this might alter that difference and allow him to follow after his mother…but no, he is exactly like me.

A Dragneel.

"Okay…bad news?" she sat at my side stroking our sons head while also patting out daughters from beneath the covers.

"He doesn't quite follow after you as we had thought…" waited for her to realize, and slowly as her shoulders drooped I knew she has come to recognition.

"He doesn't huh? So what's the good news?"

I smile impishly, "I love you,"

Lucy leaned in for a small kiss, "Yeah Natsu, you better because we are not having another child," I pout, I love when Lucy is pregnant, the glow she gets with her round belly, not to mention those beloved hormones that make her crazy for me…

Our daughter crawled up between us and she smiled at the little bundle in my arm, "Do you think he has magic...?" I grin.

"Well he is a Dragneel-"

"The last Dragneel that's coming from me," Lucy confirmed with her lips set.

I roll my eyes, I'll convince her otherwise she also loves to eat freely whilst being pregnant so she'll cave.

"Daddy…" Nashi looked up at me, "Do you think he will be better than me?"

I tenderly kiss her red cheeks stroking her medium length salmon hair.

"No, I think you two will never be better than each other, you will try to prove it to one another but nobody will win," my son curled even further into my body.

As my wife rested with her chest to my back my daughter lying limply on my leg and son resting contently to my chest, it was times like these that I really appreciated life and thankful that the source of this future lies behind me cuddled to my back.

Jeez Luce…what would I do without you?

"Annoy Happy," I laugh, she reads minds sometimes, its crazy but when I give her certain looks…that skill can come in handy.

"Love yah' Luce," I do she is the reason I have this amazing family.

"I know you do…but I guess its time to tell you that I lied…Igneel isn't the last one," I stilled, my son rumbled as he lost rhythm of my chest which stopped its steady motion. God I don't know why I froze up but I just had a horrific prediction, if this one is a Dragon Slayer too…Magnolia will not be able to survive this.

"A-Another one…?"
