[Natsu swung a flaming fist at Shu, making contact with Shu's left cheek. Shu let out a shout once Natsu made contact and stumbled back a bit, rubbing his slightly burnt cheek. "Fire element, huh? No problem." Shu smirked and spread his arms apart, his blue dragon of a shadow mimicking his actions; Shu brought his arms together, and a giant wave of water appeared under Natsu as Shu used the spell "Watera" to blow Natsu away.
Natsu let out a yelp as the wave of water appeared, blowing him back onto the ground. He got up slowly, moving his arm. He knew that kind of attack all too well. "Magic…" he murmured under his breath. When he looked up he saw the Blue Dragon coming in with a fist aimed towards Natsu. Natsu rolled to the side, allowing the Blue Dragon's fist to hit the ground, causing a dent in it. Natsu then reared his head back and puffed out his cheeks. He then leaned forward and opened his mouth, sending a red hot flame towards Shu from his mouth. "Roar of the Fire Dragon!"
"Wha!?" Shu was surprised and was hit by the Roar head on, a thin cloud appearing once he took the hit. The smoke quickly cleared and Shu was charred, but still standing. "He has magic too?" He murmured to himself. "Try this!" Shu threw his hands down, the Blue Dragon slamming its hands into the ground.
"Try what?" Natsu was confused at Shu's action.
The next thing Natsu knew, the ground shot up underneath him, flinging him into the air. This was Groundus. While Natsu was in the air Shu took a leap up with his fist raised, Blue Dragon mimicking his actions. Shu threw his fist down, causing the Blue Dragon's fist to slam down into Natsu and slam him into the ground.
"HA!" Shu smirked, thinking he had Natsu defeated. However, Natsu wasn't completely crushed. He had landed on his feet and was using his hands to prevent himself from being crushed. "What!?"
"EEYAAH!" Natsu roared and threw the Blue Dragon's fist over to the side, causing Shu to tumble over to the side unwillingly, because he was tied to his shadow after all. Before Shu could make another action Natsu had charged forward, slamming a flaming elbow into Shu's jaw, causing Shu to fly back from the hit before landing on his feet.
"This guy's pretty tough…Looks like I gotta kick it up a notch!" Shu raised an arm high, the Blue Dragon doing the same. Only, on the Blue Dragon's hand, a large ball of ground was swirling around its hand. "YAH!" Shu threw his arm down at Natsu.
"Not so fast!" Natsu let flames surround one of his arms and he lunged forward at the Blue Dragon's fist, throwing his opposite arm to clash. The magical energy clashed for a few seconds before there was an overload and an explosion blew both combatants back, causing them to skid across the ground before stopping. "Tell me where Lucy is!" Natsu demanded, wiping the sweat off his forehead.
"I don' t know any Lucy, but I'm not giving up until you tell me where Kluke is!" Shu was panting, but he tried his best to hide it. "Take this!" Shu ran forward with his arm pulled back, Blue Dragon mimicking his actions.
"I'll be the information out of you!" Natsu charged forward with a flaming fist as well, yelling as to brace himself for another magical collision. As soon as they got close to each other, Mavericks attempted to jump them both from behind. Shu and Natsu had noticed right before it happened, redirecting their attacks at the Mavericks and destroyed them with a single hit.
The two landed back to back as they looked around, Mavericks and Eggman robots surrounding the two of them.
"You're not with them?" Natsu asked, glaring at the robots that surrounded him.
"I was just about to ask the same thing to you…" Shu smirked, alongside Natsu. They both realized that they were now on the same side, and that they had a powerful ally next to them. They exchanged a nod as a sign of agreement. Natsu's body was covered in flames while Shu's gave off a small white light. They charged forward in the same direction towards the surrounding robots.]
