Phenomenal Ultra Instinct: Thanks for all the reviews
Nayrcon: your wait is over
Dylan-A-Friend: very nice
Xerzo LotCN: oh yes, the pairings within fairy tail are coming together but I don't think Lucy would be ready to join a lemon just yet. Marking them doesn't raise levels but I'm probably going to use it for something.
: thanks for all the motivation
Guest: No Levy isn't in the harem but it doesn't mean I'm going to pair her off with someone.
10: love how you were almost having a conversation with yourself between reviews. Natsu may learn god slayer magic or something similar. He's 6ft 1

"You know Natsu, it's not very comfortable to sleep on the floor… in the back room of the guild" Erza muttered under her breath.
"It was not my original idea Erza" Natsu replied in the same tone. He glanced side to side to the sight of Mira and Cana clamping on his arms, still fast asleep. Sliding one arm away at a time, Natsu stood himself up like a zombie rising from the dead. "Though I'm pretty sure you know first hand how to get me drunk and have fun". A dim light enveloped him as his clothes Re-equipped themselves. Natsu hummed looking at his clothes "nah". He Re-equipped again into casual boots, baggy dark blue pants and a tanned knee length coat, left open to show his bare chest. "Better?"
"Better" Erza looked at him up and down, biting her lower lip.
"Later" Natsu flicked her forehead, reading her thoughts. "So party ended as it usually did then?" Erza looked away tensed. "What, they over did it again?"
"No…" Erza clenched her teeth.
"Seriously Erza calm down, why you look so serious?" Natsu put a hand on his hip.
"Phantom…" Erza looked down. "They took Happy hostage and… Nyoko let herself be beaten so they let him go"
"Oh?" Natsu tilted his head innocently. "And then what happened?" he stepped forward, shattering the wooden floor boards beneath him.
"T-they've taken Nyoko and demanded for you to go to them" Erza gulped under the pressure.
"I see" Natsu chuckled darkly to himself.
"Natsu stop!" Erza stepped in front of him. "It's a trap for you, we need-"
"You need to get out of my way" Natsu pushed Erza to the side but she grabbed his wrist.
"Listen you need to think" Erza shouted.
"What's going on" Mira stirred awake with Cana, feeling the pressure. "Natsu?" he looked back with a glare, stealing his hand back from Erza.
"Natsu wait!" Erza called on him as he stormed out of the room into the main hall of the guild. Natsu grumbled noticing but not taking in the depressed looks of the guild. "Stop, you can't just force your way in".
"Maybe you can't but I can" Natsu's stare bore deep into the red head as she stopped in front of him again. "So be a good girl and go eat your cake" he stepped forward but Erza kept her ground.
Glaring, Erza Re-equipped a sword "Master told me that I have to keep you here".
"Did he?" Natsu grabbed the blade of the sword. Twisting his hand, Natsu snapped the blade from the handle and dropped it on the ground. "Tough" Natsu barged past her. Feeling her hand come towards him again, Natsu spun round flicking his fingers. Erza halted her advance as her armour made a crunching sound. "Try and stop me but those runes on you will freeze all armour you try to use against me" he turned back towards the exit.
"Don't walk away from me" Erza yelled on deaf ears.
Stepping outside Natsu twisted his head 'Menu, Map, Find: 'Nyoko Dragneel''. He stopped looking in the direction of the forest 'you can run but I can find any ally on my maps'. Natsu used his wind magic to hover up in the air and shoot forward like a bullet 'Arc of Power – Magnified Speed'. He squinted his eyes over the map '14,328 meters away… should take me 10 minutes at most'. Twitching Natsu looked back at the menu 'I told you last time Phantom, this time there is no holding back. Menu, Options, Set Player Mode – Enable Lethality'.

Warning: enabling this setting will allow the player a chance to kill enemies that reach zero HP.
Go Back – Enable Anyway
'Enable Anyway' Natsu clenched his fists. 'I have had enough playing around. This is MY game and I will be the one to win'.
…
"Geehee" Gajeel laughed loudly to himself as he smacked Nyoko in the back of the head.
"That hurt you bastard" Nyoko growled as her hands were locked behind her back with magic seals. "I'll get you for this".
"Heh not a chance Salamander, you ain't gettin' out of those cuffs" he grabbed the back of her hair, holding her head back. "Don't worry though, after I get rid of the prick coming for you we can have lots of fun together, Geehee".
"Hehe you think you can beat Natsu" Nyoko snickered. "He will destroy you".
"You think he will when I hold a sword to your throat" Gajeel smirked.
"Like you will have the chance… right Natsu" Nyoko smirked back.
Spinning round to braced himself, Gajeel looked around noticing no one was there. "Hey" he turned back noticing Nyoko was legging it further into the forest. "What… get back here bitch" Gajeel charged after her. Noticing Nyoko fall to her knees in exhaustion, Gajeel stopped his charge and cockily stomped over cracking his knuckles. "Trying to run away… Geehee, well we may have to have some fun together right now so you will never run again".
"Sounds fun Gajeel" the Dragon Slayer looked down to see a hand on his chest, halting his walking. "Shall we have to fun together?"
"Natsu Dragn… urrgh" Gajeel grunted as Natsu shoved him back hard.
"Nyoko, do me a favour" Natsu rolled his neck, making several snaps. "Run back to the guild, you don't need to see this".
Nyoko closed her eyes seeing a bright light. "Huh?" she looked around her to noticing intense flames engulfing her. Glancing down she grinned noticing the flames had melted the magic seal holding her captive. "Thanks for the grub Natsu" wasting no time she wolfed the fire in her belly. "Natsu..?"
"Kehaha" Natsu snickered, a dangerous gleam in his eye.
"What the hell is your problem? Iron Dragon – Club" Gajeel jabbed forward with his extended iron arm.
"Oh there is no problem with me, in fact I have just found the solution" Natsu caught the club with his hand. "There needs to be exactly seven Dragon Slayers alive to defeat Acnologia, none including me, the rules of the game". He pushed the club to the side "I can't be bothered having to deal with another game over again, I don't want to restart. I… but this is different, in no other playthrough have I met the Mother of all Dragon Slayers before the war. With Irene, I have seven again, I… am going on a tangent here".
"What are you going on about this time, Fairy Scum. Iron Dragon – Sword" Gajeel leaped above Natsu bringing his sword arm down.
"Volcanic Dragon – Active Eruption" Natsu grinned as high pressure ash exploded from his body, sending Gajeel flying back. 'Interesting powerful, only 200 MP but has a cooldown of one minute'.
"Fuck" Gajeel patted himself down to remove the burning ash lingering on him. "So you were a Dragon Slayer all along" he grinned. "All the more reason to… gruk-!" Gajeel choked as Natsu dived forward, gripping his throat.
"Why the hell are you looking so cocky for?" Natsu lifted him up by the neck. "I destroyed you last time as a cripple, if I removed that sword the first time we met your dead body would have bled out in that forest".

Natsu paused looking at the long quest 'the same as ever'.
"Iron Dragon – Hard Fist" Natsu blinked not noticing Gajeel hook him right in the face with the quest notification in the way. "Iron Dragon – Sword" Gajeel continued his onslaught but Natsu's foot met his chest first, sending him skidding across the ground.
"Natsu, I'll back you up… I owe this guy a beatdown" Nyoko ran up beside him full of energy thanks to the fire.
"I told you to go" Natsu strained out.
"I'm not leaving you here by yourself, you know that right?" she complained.
Natsu sighed "that's just like you alright… urgh". He dead panned "alright… I know it's going to be pointless to try convince you to leave, just don't get in the way".
"What! I beat you in our last spar" Nyoko cracked her knuckles. "Pretty sure you shouldn't get in my way".
"Fair enough" Natsu gritted his teeth as the canines grew into large fangs. His veins burned a bright orange colour, like magma under the ground while his breath exhaled dark smoke. "Volcanic Dragon Mode" Natsu sighed but ended up growling with smoke.
"Hey no fair, how do you get to look so… hot" Nyoko stared intensely at him. He rolled his eyes, poking her forehead "right, um… yeah let's kick that iron piece of crap up".
"Oh yeah, you think your ready Fairies" Gajeel roared getting their attention. His skin now covered in iron dragon scales, Nyoko blinked.
"Whoa, whoa hold up just a second… where's my awesome look I get?" Nyoko stomped on the ground "it's my turn".
"Iron Dragon – Hard Fist" Gajeel leaped forward.
"Volcanic Dragon – Hard Fist" Natsu copied Gajeel, punching his fist with a red hand dripping hot lava.
Jumping over Natsu, Nyoko grabbed his shoulder to spin herself around. "Fire Dragon – Talon" Gajeel stepped back managing to avoid the first kick but the second struck him in the face. As Gajeel stumbled back, Natsu grabbed Nyoko's wrist. The pinkette loosened her body as Natsu spun her around, tossing her at the Iron Dragon Slayer. "Fire Dragon – Iron Fist" Nyoko curled up slightly, jabbing Gajeel in the gut.
"Volcanic Dragon" Natsu leaped to the side to get a clear angle. "Roar" a beam of lava entailing fist sized molten rocks, spewed from his mouth.
"Shit!" Gajeel panicked unable to dodge the roar. In an attempt of a defence, he turn his arms into iron clubs to try defend his body. "Argh!" Gajeel screamed in pain but the sound of the roar drowned it out.
'This is annoying' Natsu glanced at Nyoko. 'I can't go all out or Nyoko will get in the way'.
"Iron Dragon – Lance Demon Logs" Nyoko dived to the side to avoid the multiple jabs. "I'll get you for this" Gajeel stepped out of the dust caused by the roar. The Iron Dragon Slayer had turned red with the heat, like all metal, his scales were melting with the heat of the lava. His arms lacked iron scales as liquid iron began to drip away.
"Volcanic Dragon – Corrosion" Natsu blew a small ash cloud at Gajeel. Thinking nothing of it Gajeel charged towards Natsu.
"Iron Dragon – Club" he jabbed the club forward while Natsu caught it again. "Bastard I'll… I… gruk" the Dragon Slayer fell to one knee.
"You really are not the smartest guy in the book are you?" Natsu crushed the end of the iron club by clenching his fist. Yelping, Gajeel returned his arm to normal and clutched his chest in agony. "Iron… is not really the strongest of elements is it?" Natsu smirked as Gajeel's scales were either melted or were now corroding in a brown rust like fashion. "You know the only reason people use iron, is because it's so accessible right? It's got a low melting point it rusts so quickly and it breaks very easily" Natsu walked up to the writhing Dragon Slayer. Shaking his head, Natsu booted Gajeel in the face cracking the scales. "But to top it all off, you just ran into a poisonous cloud… you know volcanoes have more gases than lava right?" Natsu bent down to taunt him but Gajeel used the opportunity to spit blood on his cheek. "Well… you've just made this painful for yourself".
"Natsu" Nyoko grabbed his shoulder. "We beat him, come on we have to check the guild is alright".
Natsu peered towards her "you go… I uh got something to do first".
"Natsu… don't you dare" she pulled him to face her. "You promised me that you wouldn't kill anyone" Nyoko pointed backwards. "And we are going back… together!"
"Oh Nyoko… I promised nothing about killing pieces of shit" Natsu grumbled. "I promised I would be the 'big brother' figure that will protect you" he tugged her hand off him. "So be a good little sister and get out of here so I… can dispose of this".
"I know he is a piece of shit, he might be the biggest crap ever" Nyoko flailed angrily. "But we are Fairy Tail mages, we don't kill people, we're not murderers".
"Speak for yourself, many would call me a mass murderer" Natsu cracked his neck.
"Yeah but… you've changed… and" Nyoko pushed him gently from the fallen Gajeel. "You are a better person now so…"
Natsu looked down "I've not changed at all Nyoko, I just wanted to look good in your eyes since we joined together at the beginning". Natsu gritted his teeth "I never said anything in case the End came".
"What are you saying Natsu? Just spit it out already" Nyoko crossed her arms.
"I'm tired of playing games Nyoko" Natsu darkened. "I'm tired of playing along with these childish pretences". He moved past her towards Gajeel but Nyoko stepped in front him again "Move".
"N-No… I-I won't" Nyoko shuddered under his gaze.
"Fine I'll give you the options, either kill him yourself or let me do it… but if you want to spare him so badly… we're through" Natsu glared with burning red eyes. "Don't worry, any attack you do would kill Gajeel right now" he smirked. "After all, looking at the blood coming from his gut, it seems the sword wound from last time has opened again".
"I… I can't… you… can't" tears began to run down her face.
"Are you going to stop me?" Natsu bluntly asked as Nyoko froze in place. "Good girl, don't worry I'll make it fast" Nyoko could only watch as he walked past her, his arm brushing against her as he did. "Volcanic Dragon – Talon" Nyoko jumped in her skin hearing a loud crunch. "See nice and fast" Natsu patted her head as he walked past her again.
"Why… Why!?" Nyoko sobbed. "Why do you have to kill..? it's not right".
"All a matter of perspective" Natsu waved it off. "I think killing is necessary to root out all evil… justice is often cold isn't it" he sighed. "I bring an end to evil, I end suffering, I end life… I'm always ending something, that's why the name End always stuck to me… never to you". Natsu shook his head "I suppose it's a bit early for you Nyoko, you are just not ready to learn the truth are you?"
"What do you… mean" Nyoko yelled as Natsu snapped his fingers. "B… y… th… at" she collapsed forward unconscious into Natsu's arms.
"Sorry Nyoko but I'm going to change your memory for a bit… you can't remember any of this" Natsu's eyes watered but refused to drop tears. "But knowing the truth between us… between our past… sorry but you can't know, not yet". Natsu held her closer running a hand through her hair "I'll protect you no matter how much you hate me". He grabbed her legs, holstering her up into a princess carry "maybe I can start by telling you to lose some weight, right..? right". Natsu sadly chuckled to himself "don't worry Nyoko, everything will soon be back to normal and we can get so charred BBQ, your favourite".
