darkhuntressxir - I also did want to do OC but something changed my mind and decided with FT character.

The next morning when Natsu woke up he was in a familiar room. He didn't remember coming back from where Midnight was. Natsu got out of bed and went outside and Sting came running toward him.

"Are you okay? He asked worried. Did he do anything to you.

"I'm fine." Natsu replied then he stared at Sting. Nothing happened

"How did I get back here?"

"That bastard brought you back."

Natsu did remember Midnight saying he would return him but couldn't really remember how he got back.

"I see."

When Natsu saw Midnight he felt something different about him, it was him but he felt a darker power within him that Natsu had never felt before.

"Where did he get so much power from? Natsu thought.

"What's wrong? Sting asked.

Natsu shook his head.

"It's nothing."

He needed to find a way to save Midnight from all that dark power he had consumed and there was only one person he knew who could since that man also has dark power within him but Natsu didn't want to go see him since that man tried to kill his friends

"I have to go see him for Midnight."He thought. Natsu realize he was acting strange since Sting kept on looking at him confused.

"Sorry." Natsu apologized. I guess I'm still tired.

Natsu hated that he had to lie but he had no choice.

"Then I'll let you rest." Sting said kissing Natsu on the forehead then he left the room. Natsu laid there thinking what he should do. Should he go see that man or not.

"Where did Midnight get that power anyway?" He wondered, all this thinking was giving him a headache. At times like this he wished there was somebody he could share his thoughts with like Happy and Lucy but he scratched those thoughts away since that was not going to happen anytime soon. He also wondered was Midnight the cause of everybody forgetting about him but then why would the dragon slayers only remember him. Midnight shouldn't have that much power that makes everybody forget him.

"I wanted to change Midnight when I was with him in the past but it didn't work out the way I had hoped."

"I have see Midnight again but then again he said he will find me."


"How's Natsu?"Rogue asked.

"He's fine but he seemed tired so I let him rest more."Sting replied.

"Why did that guy return Natsu?"

Sting was thinking the same thing and he didn't understand it well.

"How does he even know Natsu?" Sting said getting angrier by the minute thinking what that guy did to Natsu but Natsu said nothing happened.

"Now that I think about it one night I heard Natsu say Midnight."

"Midnight is one day to the next." Sting said acting smart.

"I know that, I thought so but I think it's a name."

This caught Sting by surprise.

"You don't mean that Midnight is."

Rogue nodded his head. It could be.

"I remember before master was talking about how Fairy tail defeated a group called Oracion Seis that was a dark guild and I'm sure Midnight was the name of the leader."

Sting and Rogue then heard footsteps coming toward them so they stopped talking and they turned around and saw Natsu standing there.

"Did you have a nice nap?"Rogue asked.

"Yea."Natsu smiled but he didn't really sleep since all he could think of was Midnight since he was worried about him.

"Can I go into town to see Wendy and Garjeel?"

Natsu needed to talk to them and without the other two.

"What do you need to talk to them about?" Natsu knew he would get an reply like this so he came prepared.

"I just want to know how the Fairy Tail guild is doing." Sting and Rogue and understand.

"You can go but remember to come back." It was strange since Natsu was sure they wouldn't let him go alone.


Later that day Natsu met up with Wendy and Garjeel.

"What's so important Salamander?" Garjeel looked annoyed and Natsu didn't like that attitude and gave him a glare which Garjeel gave a glare back.

"Calm down you two." Wendy tried to stop the two from fighting.

"Why does this always happen?" Wendy wondered.

"What is it you want from us?"Garjeel asked.

"Do you remember the dark guild with Midnight?"

This caught the two dragon slayers eyes. They were part of the fight when they defeated them. Natsu then explained to them how he saved Midnight and let him live and about the dark power he know has.

"Soft as always aren't you."Gajeel yelled.

Garjeel was right, he was soft and always wanted to save people and not kill them but that's just how he is.

"Don't tell the twin dragons about this?" Garjeel and Wendy understood since they were never apart of the battle they had with them so it didn't concern them.

"What are you going to do now?"Wendy asked.

"I have to find Midnight but first I have to pay a visit to Zeref."

They were shocked when he heard that name.

"Why would you want to go there?" Wendy asked. Wendy was scared of Zeref, well most people including Natsu but he had no choice.

"Are you nuts?"Garjeel yelled.

Natsu knew what he was doing was something stupid but he had no choice since the dark magic that Midnight had was similar to Zeref.

"If you're going so am I." Wendy said with her hands shaking abit. Natsu stood up and smiled and patted the bluenete.

"I'm going alone."

"I don't know if your just stupid or brave." Garjeel stood up and then stared at the pinkette.

"Don't do anything dangerous."


After he met with the town Natsu decided to go look for Zeref and it was a place he didn't like. It was deep in the dark forest. Natsu knew it since he knew Zeref well then most people but he was still afraid of him.

Natsu didn't know but Zeref already knew about his visit and a smirk appeared on Zeref's face.

"Natsu is visiting me after so long."

Natsu arrived at a spooky tall building made of tree branches even the gate to enter inside the house. The house gave him the chills.

"Was it always this scary?" He stopped and stared at the building then he held his breath then he entered inside. Inside was dark. Natsu then felt a presence and across was a figure standing there and he already knew who it was.

"Zeref."He said. Zeref stared at the pinkette with his dark eyes.

"What brings you here?" He smiled and walked closer and held onto the boy. How I missed you Natsu. Natsu wanted to push the older man away but he couldn't.

"There is something I want to talk to you about." Like always the power surrounding Zeref was strong, this whole house was covered in darkness. This power was indeed like the one with Midnight.

"Did you give Midnight your power?" Zeref pulled away Natsu and stared at the boy. I might have alittle. Natsu was right when he thought the power was similar.

"Why did you do that?"

"Why to protect you?" Natsu didn't like Zeref's tone of voice at all. When and that boy fell in the hole, he was already dead?"

Natsu didn't understand what Zeref was saying.

"What are you talking about?" Natsu didn't kill Midnight, he was alive and well and they were always together.

"What I mean to say is..."

Zeref's appearance changed into Midnight.

"I am Zeref and I am Midnight."

"What?"

"We are as one but since Zeref's body is so weak we had to combine so I'm really Midnight."

Natsu was in shock, he couldn't believe this.

"Natsu." Midnight said he grabbed the Pinkette's chin and stared into his eyes. I didn't think you would come looking for me. Midnight took a slip of a glass of water and then drank it, then he placed his lips onto Natsu.

"Stop!" Natsu yelled as he pushed Midnight away. Why are you doing this?" Natsu's eyes slowly started closing and he fell in the arms of Midnight.

"I'm doing this for you my love."He smirked.


Sting and Rogue were getting worried that Natsu had not returned yet. It was pass eight already and it was getting late. They called Wendy and Garjeel but said they never met up with Natsu.

"Natsu said he was meeting them." Sting said. Rogue didn't understand it. Sting and Rogue remember that they had dropped Natsu where Wendy and Garjeel was and they clearly saw them before they left but now they are saying they don't recall seeing them or Natsu.

"What's going on?"Sting thought.
