I do not own Fairy Tail

Chapter 10: Bonding?

FlashBack

Nashi was calmly drawing in her room like she always did, when she heard something unclick. "Mama, is that you?" Nashi asked as she stepped down from her seat towards the door leading out of her bedroom. No one seemed to be down there. Nashi slowly closed the door. As she did, something burning caught her nose. It smelt like burning wood.

Nashi's eyes grew wide. After a father-daughter dance incident, Nashi made sure to cover up her window with wood to barricade her room. Wood... Nashi felt a pang of vain in her attempts to barricade her room. She was human. 100% normal. Her parents were not.

They were 100% magic users. More particulary her father was infinity times stronger. Nashi turned her head towards the barricaded window.

The wall was on fire, there was a big hole in it and her paintings were scorched to the crisp. Nashi's eyes twitched as she saw a fiery shadow in the flames. There and behold was the pink-haired, baka(Idiot), one and only, Nastu Dragneel...Her Father.

Nashi was reminded of another thing she hated most besides her father. Being reminded she was weaker. Her father was there, standing in the fire as if saying 'know your place'. Nashi didn't know what to do. Nashi kick him or run away.

As Nashi debated the next course of action, she felt herself getting sick. The fumes were getting her. Her father took a step forward and then sprinted. Her eyesight grew fuzzy and she felt light-headed. Her legs were giving and as soon as they did, she felt a pair of arms catch her. "Pa...pa" Nashi breathed as she fainted.

Present

"So you brought me here, in the middle of nowhere...to bond...Your an idiot papa!" Nashi screeched as she smacked Natsu on the head. He pouted. "But Mira said it was a good idea" Natsu revealed.

Nashi's vein showed out in anger. Mirajane!

"When do I leave?" Nashi asked as she turned her back towards Natsu and faced the ocean on the grassy fields.

"Until we act properly and sort out these Father Daughter Problems" Natsu replied with his arms crossed, looking determined. Nashi couldn't see why her mother fell in love with Natsu. He was crazy. Lucy was sane.

"Well?" Nashi asked.

"Well what?"

"How is this going to work?" Nashi asked. After she asked, Natsu's face turned blank. Nashi slapped her forehead. Not only was he crazy, but he was stupid as ever.

"What do you want to know?" Natsu questioned Nashi. He, himself, wasn't certain how this bonding time was supposed to work.

Nashi turned her body full towards Natsu, facing him head-on. "Why would Mama like you. She obviously has better choices!" Nashi retorted. Natsu took offense before coughing and replying.

"Because of my amazing charm!" Natsu replied as he did a pose with a smirk.

Nashi held up her arms crossed in an 'X' as if to say No.

"My muscular rock hard body!" Natsu proudly remarked.

Nashi's hands went back up to a cross.

"Cause...I have a flying cat?" Natsu randomly said.

Nashi shrugged. To her it made sense. Natsu frowned.

"I can't really speak for Luc- your mom. You have to ask for yourself. Although I can tell you when I began to like your mom!" Natsu spoke.

"Because of her body" Nashi plainly said. For a girl, she spoke bluntly. Anything that came to her mind which, as Lucy quoted, "Like her father".

Natsu scowled. "No! Maybe I was interested in her to begin with because of that but later on she really was nice and sweet." Natsu replied.

Nashi stayed in silence, waiting for Natsu to continue.

"Let's see... I guess I can tell when I met your mother. It all started in the port of Hargion, I was heard from a rumor that Igneel..." Natsu recalled, struggle-free and continued on.

Nashi knew all about it from her mother's point of view but she wanted to know from Natsu's perceptive. It was a test.

They were away from home

...

…

Lucy was walking back to the guild. Since Nashi was sick she had to go pick up medicine for her. The moment she opened the guild doors she spotted guild members in the center.

Lucy shoved into each member to get a better look. There it was now. Gray and Juvia fighting. Right beside Juvia was a boy, who looked as old as Nashi only a bit larger with dark blue hair.

"YOU TRICKED ME" Gray spat at Juvia. Juvia flinched. She wasn't used to Gray yelling at her. "W-Well...The more the joy righ-" "DON'T GIVE ME THAT!" Gray interrupted.

Lucy asked the bystanders, "What happened?"

"You know that time when Juvia was going to take on a solo mission that resulted in 8 months?" Kinana asked Lucy.

Lucy nodded.

"Well Gray and Juvia made love that night before she left. She used protection but it failed on her and she was pregnant those 8 months until her child was born. Word was that the kid standing next to Juvia was him. As it did make sense that the boy resembled both Juvia and Gray.

"DON'T GIVE ME THAT CRA-" Gray shut up. As an ice lance was pointed towards Gray's chin. The holder was the child. "Don't talk to her like that" The kid snarled.

"Rin! Don't speak to your father like that!" Juvia lectured. "He was yelling at you, I won't forgive him." He repeated.

(A/N: Rin is a feminine name, though is can be a boys and it means cold or dignified. Had a hard time looking up names for this guy).

"Oh really!? Let's take this outside, winner is right!" Gray declared. Rin simply nodded before follow after his father. Juvia spotted Lucy and immediately ran towards her, sobbing. "L-L-Lucy...W-What do I do!? I don't want to become l-like you. Lonely and all alone." Juvia blubbered.

Lucy sweat dropped. Did it look like she was alone and lonely. It's true she didn't go to the guild that much when she declared herself a Heartphilia. Yet she still wore her wedding ring. She probably went too far on Natsu. She should expect this from her idiotic husband.

The blonde comforted the sobbing Juvia.

Gray is just off because he hasn't had a fight with Natsu lately. Besides, I'm sure this whole thing will be forgotten of." Lucy softly murmured. Juvia looked up and nodded.

...

…

"I told you I could beat your ass" Gray said toward his victory.

"Ah, but Gray~ You just beat up your child. That's child abuse" Cana drunkily worded.

Rin, himself, wasn't that much beat up. His father was more advanced than him so it made sense. "I guess you are my son if you can get a good hit on me. Cool for now?" Gray asked. Extending his hand towards Rin who was standing infront of Gray. Rin just gave off a smirk before putting his hand in the handshake.

"Yea"

...

…

"And your mother sure was weird! As I was fighting the guy that kidnapped her, I said 'I like you'. Then as we celebrated her return to the guild, I kissed her. She slapped me. I was scared that she didn't like me and tried to act like nothing ever happened. Later I found her crying in her apartment and she told me it was my fault that I was pretending it was normal and that I never knew of her feelings. How could I if she never said it!? What a weirdo. After that, we dated but she didn't jump for it when I said marriage after I went to her apartment! After a few months we got married and had you!" Natsu concluded.

"And you left us" Nashi added. Natsu's eyes darkened.

"I still loved you both" Natsu said.

"Nope."

"I did but you never let me" Natsu countered.

"Mama has been through a lot. Better for her if you never existed"

"You wouldn't be here"

"Mama would be happier..."

"She probably would've been" Natsu said, much to Nashi's shock.

"But" Natsu added.

"I'm selfish. She made me happy and I love her. I didn't care if she didn't love me back. Probably would've been painful but I would still be glad to have her by my side. It made me so happy when you were born. I know I only stayed a couple of months after you were born but still, I don't regret having you. Also me and Luce had our problems too but we made of it," Natsu smiled his signature smile towards Nashi.

Nashi found out why her mother would fall in love with him.

Even though he was a blunt, aggressive, slob, explosive, dense, idiotic, terror-to-villagers, pink-haired, and a fool. He was also sweet, caring, courageous, and himself. Nashi could see now why Lucy would have fallen in love with him.

It never so much occurred to Nashi that she was only looking at his bad qualities. She felt like an idiot. She caused him so much trouble.

Nashi stood up. Natsu did too. "Is something wrong Nashi?" Natsu asked curiously as he examined why Nashi had her head low until he saw the tears drop. "Nashi what's wrong?" Natsu hurriedly asked.

"I'm sorry...I'm sorry Papa" Nashi mumbled in between sobs.

They were getting ready to go home

...

…

Natsu was on the boat back home with Nashi. He looked out the window, there it was sea and Hargion port just ahead. As Natsu tried his best to keep motion sickness afar he patted Nashi's head which was on his lap.

They were on their way home

...

…

"Where are they!?" Lucy shouted as she begun shake Happy upside down. The disguise hadn't worked... Wendy tattled to Lucy about Happy much to his dismay and now Lucy was in the middle of interrogating Happy.

"Well...um" Happy murmured before the front door slammed opened.

"WE'RE HOME!" a unisoned voice yelled.

There it was. A tan-skinned man with pink-hair and onyx eyes holding the hands of a girl with chocolate colored eyes, pale skin, and the most notably pink hair. They were smiling.

They were home.

Sorry I'm late, also this is NOT the last chapter, there will be another chapter and then an epilogue. Please review and wait next Saturday for chapter 11! I am satisfied with this chapter. I reread the story and realized I was changing the style of writing. I hope this is better.
