A/N: Hiya guys. Since I updated late I decided that I would post another chapter today! Now I have 7 reviews, 15 favs, and 27 follows. Thank you all! You motivate mah so much :)
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail! I only own my OCs: Tamashi (mentioned earlier) Kuro (also mentioned earlier :P), Kesshō, Suzuki, and don't forget Draco! Lol XD
P.S. I renamed the chapters so its easy to navigate :D
Chapter Fourteen
Natsu's POV :D (been a while, right?)
Natsu held on to Kesshō's back as she plumetted to the surface and morphed back into a regular teenager. That was the good thing. The bad thing was, they were all soaking wet.
"Ack!" Lucy said, kicking a pile of seaweed away from her. "First my clothes were on fire, then now they're soaking wet! What else!"
Suzuki then said the recover spell and they were all back to normal, which Lucy was really happy about.
A few moments later, Draco appeared on the dock next to Natsu and his knees buckled. Natsu caught him as Draco staggered forward.
"Thanks, man," Draco panted. "That took a while. I haven't done that for the longest time." Surprisingly, Draco wasn't wet from the ocean. Seeing their confused expressions, he said he'll explain later.
"Where is the owl's cave?" Happy asked, flying around frantically.
"Calm down," Suzuki suggested first. "I think its in a forest, though, cause its an owl, you know. But caves are underground..."
"I guess when they mean 'owl's cave' they mean some type of metaphor." Kesshō reasoned. "I mean, owls live in the trunks of trees right?"
"Maybe..." Lucy said, tapping her chin. "But yeah, some can be found in forests."
"But this is an enchanted owl we're talking about," Draco said. "So..."
"We can look there anyway," Natsu said. "I mean, we're close to a forest right?"
"Maybe," Kesshō said. "Let's try the forest."
"Aye sir!" Happy said happily, flying ahead of them.
"But I'm a girl," Natsu heard Kesshō mutter. She just followed Happy's direction though.
They all entered what seemed like the "Forest of the Devil." Uh... Okay. Natsu was not having a good feeling about that. Happy seemed strangely excited though.
"Let's go already!" Happy demanded, flying impatiently around them.
"We're coming already, calm down..." Suzuki quipped.
At once the blue cat zoomed off into the forest without warning.
"HAPPY!" Natsu called. "YOU CAN COME BACK NOW!"
Nothing.
"Uh... Happy?" Natsu tried again nervously.
Still nothing, just a bird singing a song.
"Oh crap, I think we lost him!" Natsu panicked.
"We lost him? Who?" Draco asked.
"Happy!" Natsu said, but Draco looked confused still.
"You know, the blue flying cat who is addicted to fish?" Natsu reasoned, but Draco shook his head.
"I know. But how did he get away?" Draco mused.
"He flew?" Natsu suggested. They seemed to agree with that.
"Happy's gone?" Lucy piped up, her chocolate eyes wide.
"Um, yes." Natsu said.
"He was a good cat," Suzuki said, staring at the floor solemnly.
"He loved rainbow trout," Lucy also said sadly.
"He was annoying too, but in a good way," Kesshō joined in.
"Uh... You guys are acting like he's dead or something." Natsu realized.
"He probably is by now," Draco added, which didn't make matters better.
"Er, okay." Natsu said, bewildered. "Let's still at least try to look for him, okay? He can't be that far away."
"He has Aera magic though. So he actually can get lost if he's flying too fast," Suzuki said, but she walked ahead.
They walked in the forest, seeing interesting creatures and plants along the way. There was still no sign for Happy, the missing blue cat.
"He could be anywhere!" Natsu groaned. "I hate finding small things in a big place!"
Lol Natsu... You're not alone, cause I hate doing that too XD
"Ditto," Lucy agreed. "This is taking forever!"
"I'm so tired! And it feels like we've been here forever even though we just came," Suzuki grumbled.
"We need to find Happy though," Draco reminded them all cheerfully.
"And the stupid owl," Kesshō mumbled.
"Enchanted owl," Draco said. "But yeah."
Then, as the five of them sat on the roots of a tree, it was so quiet.
"It's too quiet," Lucy said. "Without Happy here..."
"It can be quiet when Happy's here though." Natsu said.
"But when its quiet, that's not good." Kesshō said, alarmed.
As if on cue, they all heard a scream and a screech.
"Guys," Natsu heard Draco say. "What the heck was that?"
"I don't think I want to know," Lucy said, smiling nervously. "But I have a hunch that it-"
"NATSU! LUCY! HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!" Happy's terrified voice cried out.
"-is Happy." Lucy finished, looking up.
Above them was the largest owl Natsu had ever seen. It was huge, having piercing nlack eyes and large brown beating wings. In one of its talons was the terrified blue dot that was Happy.
"Oh Mavis..." Natsu gaped. "That thing is freakishly huge..."
"Er, yes." Suzuki said uncomfortably. "It is huge."
The owl screeched so loud that Natsu had to cover his ears. "AAAAAAAAH!" He said, screaming.
"That's our challenge guys!" Lucy yelled from somewhere to Natsu's left. "We have to rescue Happy to get the feather!"
"How, is the question!" Suzuki said.
"Gotta agree with that," Kesshō shrugged.
"We should run," Draco advised, but he stayed.
"Can you two transform to create a distraction?" Lucy yelled to Kesshō and Draco. "You're about the size of that thing!"
Natsu saw Draco look in Kesshō's direction, and she nodded. Then they both transformed into large, roaring dragons.
"All right guys, the rest of us can find how to get Happy!" Suzuki said this time.
Flashes of blue and green light filled the sky. At once, birds flew out of the trees in terror.
The owl screeched again and using its large wing, it smacked Kesshō, who cringed.
"This owl actually has power in it," Kesshō grumbled. She sent sharp crystals towards the owl, who screamed in protest.
"Nice, Kesshō," Ryū-za said, sending emerald orbs at the owl, who fell over and made the ground shake.
"Hey, include me in this action too!" Natsu roared. "I'm coming Happy!" He shouted, speeding towards the owl's direction.
"NATSU, NO!" Lucy shrieked, but he continued to plummet towards the owl instead.
"FIRE DRAGON'S IRON FIST!" Natsu screeched, feeling his fists enflame with hot fire. He attacked the owl with such force that he heard Happy squeal with surprise. The owl staggered backwards as well.
But he celebrated too soon. The owl regained its balance and struck Natsu with its wing. Pain flooded his whole body. "Ack!" He said, falling backwards. Luckily, Lucy rushed forwards and caught him before he hit the ground.
"That's why you don't attack on impulse," Lucy scolded him when Natsu could focus well again.
"Sorry," Natsu said weakly. "I had to save Happy. I heard him."
"Can you two stop talking and GET ON WITH IT?!" Suzuki yelled at both of them. "There's a giant owl about to kill us if you haven't noticed!"
"Sorry!" Both Natsu and Lucy apologized immediately.
"HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!" Happy screamed again.
"We're coming Happy! Where are you?" Lucy called.
"Stuck!" Happy groaned. "I think I'm trapped too."
"Yeah I know, but where?!" Suzuki facepalmed.
"Um... Talon." Happy replied, but was cut off by a giant screech. Kesshō and Ryū-za were still fighting the owl, matching blow for blow.
"This is really a pain!" Ryū-za grumbled.
"I have to agree!" Kesshō growled.
The owl screeched again and kept fighting them. Natsu could tell they were slowly getting tired.
Then, Natsu spotted a blue clump of fur that was lying on the ground a few feet away. The owl must've dropped him, and it must've been a hard landing.
"Oi, Happy!" Natsu gasped, scooping the blue cat up in his arms. "Are you still alive?"
To his happiness, Happy's eyes flew open instantly and exhaled. "I'm alive. Can I have a fish?" He asked and Natsu grinned.
"Now to finish that owl guys! Give it your all!" Lucy called, pulling out a celestial spirit key. "Open, gate of the lion! LEO!" At once Loki arrived, and he adjusted his glasses.
"You called?" He asked, and Lucy nodded. "Regulus Impact!" Golden rays of light shot of Loki and to the owl.
"Fire dragon's Sword Horn!" Natsu bellowed, and headbutted the owl with such force he almost fainted.
"Light God Slayer's Golden Light!" A dark ray of light shot out from Suzuki's palm and attacked the owl.
Kesshō and Draco both were swiping at the owl, sending crystals and emeralds flying over the direction where they were attacking.
At long last, Natsu saw the owl crumble-literally-to dust. Then, a golden light blinded Natsu, and in the owl's place was a shining golden feather. It shone so bright like the sun, that Natsu had to narrow his eyes.
"Oh my gosh." Kesshō gasped, turning back into a human, where she landed on the floor. "I'm never doing that again."
"We might though." Ryū-za added, transforming back into his original human form, panting but smiling.
"Nice, we have four feathers now!" Natsu cheered, holding up the golden feather.
"Yes!" Lucy said, fist pumping. "So what does it say next about the prophecy?"
"Oh right," Suzuki said, nodding. "I nearly forgot about that."
Happy, however, was still dazed. "I'm hungry... Someone get me a fish!"
That made everyone laugh at Happy's remark. A piece of paper flew out of the feather, and Natsu picked it up.
"The evil dragon will arise, spreading terror among the place. All then will advance, the maiden leading first place."
"Dark." Draco said nonchalantly. "That's a cool prophecy line. Only one more people!"
"The dragon's fury will crash in all the world, being the only cure the strength of a maiden's heart. The phoenix, dove, unicorn, serpent, and the owl face difficulties each to share. Those who try to seek them, and their treasures, beware. All five will proceed to the lair, where they place their treasures there. The evil dragon will arise, spreading terror among the place. All then will advance, the maiden leading first place."
"Interesting prophecy," Draco then said. "But who's that maiden?"
"It must be one of us," Kesshō added. "But I'm pretty sure its not me. I'm a dragon."
"And I'm a sculptor." Suzuki agreed.
"So... If its not you two then it must be me," Lucy spoke up. "I can say I am a maiden..."
"Lucy fits the part... Doesn't she?" Suzuki said. They all nodded.
"Last but not least, we have the unicorn." Draco said happily. "Let's go see it!"
"I've got enough of fighting beasts." Kesshō groaned. "I wish that we don't have to fight a giant unicorn."
"Probably not going to happen," Natsu agreed. "Unicorns aren't that scary when they're thirty feet tall."
"I've got to agree with that," Suzuki smiled. "Unicorns just sparkle dust on you, and that's pretty much it."
"Come to think of it, the owl wasn't inside of a dark cave," Draco mentioned. "So is the unicorn going to be in a forest still?"
"It might be in a forest, but definately not the same one." Kesshō reasoned. "And this isn't enchanted, its a regular forest."
"If it is a regular forest," Lucy then asked. "Why is an enchanted being inside of it?"
Everyone shrugged.
"You're taking this rather calmly," Happy realized. Natsu couldn't help but smile.
"Are we?" Suzuki said, bewildered.
"Despite having a messed up forest as our HQ," Draco joked. "I mean, the trees are stomped all over thanks to our dragon forms."
"And I think you knocked some plants over too." Natsu grinned. "They give us air right?"
"Oxygen," Lucy corrected. "But yeah."
"Worry about plants later. The world is going to die." Kesshō reminded them.
"Right," Suzuki said. "To another forest."
"How can we tell if they are enchanted or not?" Happy asked. He seemed okay now, and he was now munching on a piece of tuna that Lucy gave him.
"Can't you just feel it or something?" Kesshō asked. "I mean, you can tell right away this forest is not enchanted."
"Eh, never mind... I still don't get it," Happy replied, munching his tuna.
"Let's just go already," Draco suggested, and everyone got up and walked outside of the forest as if nothing dangerous had happened to them at all.
Even though that wasn't true, Natsu grinned to himself.
