Lucy POV:

"Why is it so cold all of a sudden!" I complained through chattering teeth, as we walked through the outer forest of Hargeon. The moment we entered the forest it started raining and big gust of wind only makes the rain colder and land harder on my skin.

"Its not that cold Lucy" Natsu said as he walked with his arms resting on his head.

"Says the fire dragon slayer, of course your warm!" I yelled back at him.

"What about Aidan he's not complaining." He retorted pointing to Aidan as he walked behind us.

"That's because I'm not wearing shorts and a tank top." He said teasingly looking at me

"Alright gang up on the only normal person here I get it." He was right though I was the only one who wasn't prepared, but it's the middle of summer and there wasn't a cloud in the sky all day until now.

"Hey Lucy why don't you just call on the clock guy?" happy asked as he was wrapped around Natsu's neck bundled up in the boys scarf.

"Yea last time I did that when we had to fight Vulcans I got kidnapped and sexually harassed" I said recalling what happened on MT Hakobe

"Your really that cold huh?" Natsu asked peering at me from the corner of his eye.

"Just a bit" I answered watching him cautiously.

With a sigh he took of his vest and handed it to me. I put it on but there really wasn't much of a difference.

"Alright get on" I looked down to see him crouched down gesturing to his back.

"Y-you don't have to carry me, this is enough," I said gripping the vest.

"Just get on Luce you want to be warm don't you?" he was right but it doesn't mean I wanted to be pressed against his bare back. Before I could protest another gust of chilling wind hit us.

"Alright fine" I gave in and climbed on his back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I could feel him shiver.

"Jeeze Luce you really are cold," he said as he stood up and continued walking.

"Ha-ha sorry" I could already feel myself getting warmer. As we continued walking I layer my cheek on his shoulder and saw happy watching me with a devilish grin on his face from inside Natsu's scarf.

"You liiike him" he said between giggles and I could instantly feel my cheeks heating up.

"Shut it cat" I mumbled not even trying to hit him.

"Hey Natsu we should split up me and Aidan can try picking up a scent over there" Nashi said pointing to the east side of the forest.

Both her and Aidan had the biggest grins on their faces.

"Alright just make sure you save some of those monkeys for me if you find them."

"Will do! Happy you want to come?" happy rushed to get out of Natsu's scarf and flew over to the two of them.

I watched the three of them leave. Those two really reminded me of Natsu sometimes, which reminded me.

"Hey Natsu remember how you said that aidan and the rest of them looked like us?" I asked him while he was sniffing the air.

"Hmm? Oh yea they also smell like us." He said as if it's obvious.

"Yea and they use our magic," I said as I began to think about how he had Taurus's key. I looked around and saw a small cave that looked pretty dry.

"Hey Natsu can you take us in there for a second?" I asked pointing to it when we reached the entrance he took one of his hands off my leg and lit his hand to make sure nothing was hiding in there.

I jumped down from his back and grabbed hold of one of my keys.

"Open gate of the southern cross, Crux!" I said holding out his key as he appeared in front of me

"Hey do you think you can look something up for me?" he nodded his head waiting for my request

"Is there a celestial wizard named aidan who carry's three keys one being Taurus?" I asked as he began to start his search snoring lightly in the process.

"Um Lucy I think he fell asleep on you" Natsu whispered behind me.

"No just wait" I said as I went to take a seat on a nearby rock.

I watched as Natsu moved closer to grandpa crux's face and as if on cue the spirit finished his search and caused Natsu to jump back, I couldn't help but let out a small laugh.

"So what did you find?" I asked as I stood up and walked back

"A celestial wizard named Aidan does not exist yet." He said

"But we just saw him." Natsu said behind me.

"Wait you said 'not yet' what does that mean?" I asked looking up at him.

"It means that he does not exist during this time period." If he doesn't exist during this time period how did we just see him?

"Do you think you can give me info on his family at the very least tell me how he learned how to use celestial magic?"

"I cannot share any information about his family but I can tell you that he was taught by his mother who held the very same keys as him."

"Hey Lucy how cam someone take keys that are contracted to you?" Natsu asked growing serious.

"There's a lot of ways if I got arrested, if I ended our contracts, and if-" that's right if I died my contracts with all my spirits would be void. Seeing how Aidan's not from this time and I still have my keys, and his sister is a 4th generation dragon slayer then its safe to say that he's from the future but that also means his mother could possibly be my murderer.

"Lucy what's the last one" Natsu said I turned to see him covered with fire he probably already knew the answer but just wanted to make sure.

"Natsu calm down we cant just jump to conclusions like that just hold on" I said at I turned back toward crux.

"Can you share any information on the mother?" I asked him hoping that Natsu and I were both wrong.

"I'm sorry but I cant Lucy."

"Alright thanks anyway," I said closing his gate.

"I'm going to kill him," Natsu said behind me filled with pure rage.

"No your not first off that's probably not even what happened and second if it did happen he might not even know about it so just leave him be ill ask about it later lets just focus on the job." I didn't fully calm him down but he at least looked like he wasn't going to kill Aidan any time soon.

As we started to walk out the cave we saw a fairy tail symbol made of fire get shot into the air.

"Must have found the Vulcans," I whispered looking at Natsu who had a stone cold expression on his face.

"Come on" he said as he lifted me back up and started running towards the place were the signal was fired not that far away.

Nashi POV:

"Hey shoot up a flare to let the Natsu and Lucy know we found them" aidan said as he pulled out his keys.

I shot the signal into the air. Lighting up my fist I turned to see the Vulcans getting closer to me.

Before I could even hit one of them Natsu came rushing in to our little clearing with Lucy on his back. He locked eyes with Aidan before setting her down and turning to the Vulcans.

"Fire dragon wing attack" I watched as he took about half of them out with on attack.

"Aidan, Nashi come here" I heard Lucy call me over and walked over to her while still watching Natsu.

"Lucy what's wrong with Natsu?" I heard happy ask when I reached them.

"He's just mad that's all" she said but you could tell she was a little worried.

"He's already taken out most of them best to stay out of his way" aidan said watching him; I couldn't help but notice Lucy tense up at his voice.

It only took Natsu about 5 minutes to handle all of them. Once he was finished he started to walk over towards us

"Wow you made that look pretty easy" Aidan said laughing nervously stepping up closer towards Lucy.

In a swift movement Natsu rushed in between the two and pushed aidan back.

"What the hell was that for!?" I said as I got in front of Aidan.

"He needs to stay away from her" he growled standing defensively in front of Lucy.

"Natsu just calm down" Lucy pleaded behind him.

"Luce I had to watch you die once and as long as I'm here its never going to happen again and if these two are the cause of it the need to stay away." He said looking over his shoulder at her with a frown plastered on his face.

"Now tell us about your parents now!" he yelled looking at Aidan and me.
