Gajeel and Levy sat at the edge of the water, their full attention on the magical form of Gajeel's mother, Raven, in the middle of the water fall pool. The light glowing from her making the rocks below glow as well. The rocks were carved and looked as though the pool it's self was man made, making Raven look more angelic.
Raven's form sighed, preparing herself for the answer to her only son's question. "Your father often talked with outsiders. Those that wanted to buy our metal works and jewelery. One day, a king with many knights came and ordered us to create iron armor to combat the dragons that were attacking village after village, eating humans. He was happy to take the order and offered his services in the fight. The king was shocked to hear that there were other dragon slayers in the world other then his first in command, a beautiful red haired woman. She made me jealous with how the other villagers looked at her to be honest." Ravens cheeks were puffed out for a moment and then she smiled. "Your father never looked at her that way. He was more shocked that there were more dragon slayers out there then us."
"One day, about a year after the king came with his order, he came begging your father for help. He had lost the last battle with a few dragons and lost a city...whatever that is. Your father went to his dragon slayer mother, Amaya, for her opinion. She laughed at him and told him to join the dragons. She was tired of humans and their stupidity. She flew off to join them not long after that."
"Angry at Amaya, he gladly joined the king. He wanted to protect us from dragons that would use us for food. He said his goodbyes and left to fight." She looked up at the sky, watching the clouds go by. "That was the last time I saw him alive." Gajeel looked at the water, deep in thought.
"I don't know if I told you how Acnologia's magic works, have I?"
Gajeel looked up at her, "Blue flame, right? Like Salamander?"
Raven tilted her head in confusion, "Salamander?"
Levy giggled, "Igneel's slayer son."
"Oh!...why Salamander? That is such a strange name?" She became very side tracked.
"Ugh! His name is Natsu, Salamander is just a nick name!" Gajeel grumbled.
Both Raven and Levy giggled as his frustration. Raven then came back on track. "Your father's magic was very different from Igneel's. He was not a Fire Slayer, he was a Magic Slayer."
"Magic Slayer?" the couple said at once.
"He can consume any magic and make it his own. He is an unstoppable force." Raven gave a grim smile.
Author's Note: Hey guys. I just wanted to give you what I had after all this time. Things have changed and my story...well...is nothing like the cannon of Fairy Tail. I wanted so much for it to like a little adventure that Gajeel, Levy, and Lily could have taken before the war with Zeref happened. So with this...I am ending my story. If you would like me to continue with the direction I was heading, please let me know and I would be happy to finish what I could. This was my first story that I had the guts to put on and I have never been prouder of the comments and feed back I have gotten. You guys really made me want to continue writing. I still haven't watched the Fairy Tail Movie, which I heard had Acnologia in it so much so that it changed everything in my story and direction. Please forgive me. Again, if you want more of the direction I was going, please leave a comment and I will be more then happy to continue. Thank you so much for reading, you guys are really the best. Hope to hear from you soon.
