A/N : I am through with P. . OF WITH YOUR HEAD! A long time ago, lived E.N.D. He was a mere child, but his most powerful emotion was his anger. They say Zeref was known for his sadness. Mavis was known for her happiness. Lucy was known for her curiosity. For Natsu, his strongest emotion was his anger. Anger for others gave him strength rather than mere matches. Hatred toward the enemy boils and consumes him, causing him to unleash his anger. It is a good thing Natsu isn't an evil person now. By the look of things in the past, he may as well be. Every night, he would wake up whilst his family sleep. He would look seethingly at the people. How could they enjoy their lives knowing what the government does? How is it fair that the government can do whatever they want to all the citizens? Why would people support the taxes being so high? He'd sneak out of bed and grab a knife to kill villagers. One by one, they disappeared without a trace. One by one, Natsu's desire for anger was resolved, that is, until one day, when he followed a soldier outside. "The taxes aren't high enough!" He screamed. "I will not raise the taxes!" Said a queen as she haughtily sat on her throne. "But then we won't have enough money to buy weapons to defend the villages." The queen continued to refuse. The frail queen walked to her table. There was blacksmith equipment and she hammered away at what looked like an incomplete piece with white wings. "I'm sure the Scarlets will like this. Its destined to end up with a requip mage descendant. I'm going to call it heaven's wheel." She continue her hammering. "At this rate, you'll die from lack of sleep." The solder muttered. "It's either the kingdom or me!" She yelled. Natsu felt awful. How could he do this? In his anger at himself, he ran not knowing where he was going. Unbeknownst to him, a scared little girl was watching. "Where am I?" She yelled into the distance. "Mommy? Daddy?" The girl went to cry in a meadow. After crying, she did what makes her feel better. It was always something her mother did with her to cheer her up. It was to sing together under the starlight. She looked up at the stellar sky, filled with so many stars and thought she even saw a streak of purple. The beautiful sky urged her to press on, so she did. She sang and felt a cold breeze on her face. The breeze blew her blonde hair in the wind, so she decided to move with its rhythm. She looked onto the sky. Why oh why can't people see that the stars are bright enough? The girl had already forgotten she was lost as curiosity took over. She peered over all the bushes and trees to see a pair of gawking eyes. The girl then shrieked. Out of the bushes immerged a boy with a bloody knife. "What are you doing dancing in a meadow in the middle of the night?" The pink hair boy asked casually. The blonde ran. She ran and ran. She ran so fast, she opened a portal back to her time. Her last thoughts when she ran into the portal were 'He does realize he was up in the middle of the night with a knife.' Lucy always thought it was a dream. Natsu woke up in the middle of the night sweating and panting. He remembered. So he was E.N.D. How can no one tell him? Natsu forced himself back to sleep. (We all know Igneel and Zeref won't forgive this. And he overheard some plan that involves a gun, orange juice, and a bagpipe.) The next morning Lucy peacefully strolled down the halls with Levy. "Natsu is so insensitive." Lucy said. "First he ignored me and then he refused to see the song I wanted to pick out because he thought it was for sure going to be sappy. Even before that, he wouldn't let me do anything!" Levy looked at her poor friend with a shocked expression. "He did what?" Mavis overheard the conversation and joined in. "There goes my number one otp." She sighed. They walked past Gray. As they did, Gray pulled Lucy in. he was already in a discussion with Juvia. Lucy's friends pretended not to look, but Lucy knew otherwise. "I like both of you." Gray said. Juvia looked shocked while Lucy knew this would happen. "Go with Juvia. I don't have an interest anyways." Lucy said. Juvia was even more shocked. Lucy happily walked away knowing she made the right choice. "The beautiful Lucy has come!" Dan yelled. Lucy rolled her eyes. Dan. Suddenly, Dan fell face first onto the ground. Lucy looked shocked as she saw it was Natsu who punched him. "Enjoy getting your date ruined." He smirked. Lucy looked horrified. Sure, she was going to say no, but Natsu can't just hospitalize him. Lucy dug in her pocket only to find her phone missing. Natsu held it up. "Nurse!" She shouted at the top of her lungs. Natsu threw her phone on her face while she cried. Levy and Mavis had seen the whole scene unfold and went to comfort her. He then walked up to Gray. "I'm gonna make your life a living hell." How did Lucy feel about this? Horrible. She felt like she lost a brother in the middle of a war and was forced to fight him while he was willing to fight her. She thought of all of her friends as family. This was no different. "Don't hurt him!" Juvia screamed as tears flooded her eyes. "Take me instead." Natsu continued to kick Gray in the face, so Gajeel came. "First you made shorty's best friend cry and now you wanna hurt my phantom lord friend's boyfriend?" He cracked his knuckles. Jellal mysteriously appeared. "I agree. You are doing some bad things." Natsu stuck his tongue out at them. The bell rang as Lucy ran from school. She was ditching but she didn't care. In the apartment, Lucy put up wooden barriers, gave extra wall and floor protection, whatever she could to make sure no one could get in. she looked at her coach and kicked it. Then she ran to her bed and collapsed. Running. He was E.N.D, wasn't he? That had been reality, hadn't it? With that bloody knife, it felt like he was a different person. Then she remembered. The curse. How could she have ignored it? A familiar flash of pink caught her eyes. The girl who gave her the warning. "I warned you." She said with sadness in her eyes. "Who are you?" The girl hesitated before answering. "Meredy."
