Chapter 53

Natsu used one fire attack after another and tried to hit Krad but neither of them worded. This made the dragon slayer angry. He completely turned off his brain. (more than usual that is) Another blow of fire was about to hit Krad when suddenly Natsu couldn't see anything but white. He couldn't move either. He couldn't do a thing.

It only lasted for a moment but when the white finally disappeared Krad was gone and there was no sign of where he disappeared.

"COME OUT YOU DAMN IDIOT AND FIGHT ME!" Natsu yelled at the top of his lungs.

The walls didn't answer and there was no one else to give it.

"Wait a second," Natsu mumbled. Krad had been after Aya so there was a big chance he was trying to find her at this very moment. Natsu felt his heart beat really fast. He would have to find Aya and Happy and that had to be fast. If he didn't find them in time Krad would get to them first that was for sure. So Natsu started running down the same hallway as Aya and Happy.

"HAPPY! AYA!" He called out loud.

Further down the hallway Aya turned her head backwards when she heard the sound of Natsu's voice.

"Is that" she mumbled but before she could finish Happy yelled.

"NATSU!"

Natsu heard that and ran as fast as possible because he thought they were in trouble. When he finally got as close to them as he could see them he stopped and fell to the floor in relief. He'd been running so fast that he'd lost his breath.

"Natsu!" Aya yelled and ran up to him. "Are you alright?"

"Natsu" Happy smiled at the dragon slayer.

"Yeah… I'm fine" Natsu said. He finally caught his breath and got up again. "But Krad suddenly disappeared. So I was worried he would get to you first" he said.

"We haven't seen that white angle" Happy replied.

"Happy is right. We haven't seen any sign of Krad." Aya said.

"Well, no matter what his plan is, I think we should stop him" Natsu said smiling at Aya. "Are you in?" he asked.

"Yeah but I don't think there is much I can do. I tried to reequip into my air armor but it didn't work" Aya sighed. "It's not fair. As soon as Aki isn't here I end up being useless"

"You're not," Natsu said. "Because of you now we know our enemy and there is only one" Aya smiled at Natsu. He was really good at being nice to people and make them believe they were something. It worked on her.

"Thanks Natsu," she said and then looked towards where they were heading. "Let's follow this hallway and see where we'll end up," she said. "I might still be able to reequip weapons if I'm lucky" Aya smiled cheerfully.

"Yeah let's hope it is so. Now let's go" Natsu started running again. This time a bit slower than before and Aya started running too carrying Happy in her arms.

At that moment the island (if you can call it that) came into Aki's and Dark's sight.
