Macao was walking in and noticed Natsu sitting in a chair with his eyes closed.
"Sleeping for 7 years you think he'd had enough" Macao joked thinking Natsu was taking a nap in brood daylight, Natsu opened his eyes.
"Actually no I was just letting my thoughts run free Natsu replied "it helps one remember factors of what happened, Only the fools decide to ignore and pretend important things happened and the Wise choose to reflect on what happened" he stated 'Ggurrgglee!' Natsu's stomach rumbled loudly "But since I'm hungry I'll be brief, We left the dock to Tenrou at 8 & clock arrived there by 11:, The Trials were cut short by a dark Guild, they got their asses kicked, an ever bigger asshole showed up Acnologia the Black Dragon "'snort'" Romeo stifled a chuckle, "me and him fought I ran out of power and the members on the Island and me got blasted and slept for 7 years, and we came back" he said "Thats the brief story" as he walked to bar and ordered 3 full course meals from Kinana as paid and gave generous tip.
"Wheres Mira?" Natsu asked.
"she said she'll run some errands before coming in" Kinana told him.
"I see" Natsu nodded
"So Lucy was going on how you went all out against Acnologia, whats your full power like?" Romeo asked as he sat next to his idol.
"I'll put it simply, you don't want to be near me when unleash my full power" Natsu told him "So you've taking on Macao's fire magic" he looked at romeo.
"yes also cold fire" Romeo explained letting a light blue fire ball "Fire to stick" as he changed into dark blue flames sticking to the bar top "Fire that smells" he said lighting a pale yellow flame in his hand.
"very impressive" Natsu said "So who taught you Macao?" he asked.
"Actually since was busy being the master, I studied under Totomaru" Romeo smiled.
"The Great Flame?" Natsu pondered.
"Yeah he teaches classes now" Romeo said "I asked if he would be able to teach you, if you were still alive" he said.
"Here you go Natsu" Kinana said placing the 3 course meals on the bar in front of Natsu.
"Thank you" Natsu smirked then dug in "ut ed eh hay?" he asked with his mouthful.
"Didn't your aunt, uncle, and Grandfather teach you proper table manners?" Macao asked.
"epe" Natsu replied making Macao sweatdrop, Natsu swallowed "So what did he say" Natsu asked Romeo.
"He said your over qualified, after he said when he fought you at Phantom lord, he said you've mastered everything there's is to know about fire" romeo chuckled
"Well Learning and Mastering Fire and understanding it are two different things" Natsu said seriously as he chewed down a pretzel stick that he dipped in spicy cheese sauce, then he chewed and swallowed it "That was my problem before Phantom, I didn't really understand Fire as much as I do now, Thats why I had trouble controlling it and keeping myself centered, in order to become a master of fire you must have: The Self-Discipline, patience, have some type of restraint, and provide mental stability and a sound mind which are extremely Important for a Fire Dragon and Fire Dragon Slayers and I admit after thinking back to what I used to be, I didn't have much a sound mind and too quick to snap at the littlest things" he said as a minute later he was on his third course all ready.
"I find a bit funny the way you and Gray would buttheads" Wakaba spoke.
"Meh, anyway those are key factors you need to have in order to be a master of fire, First you must be willing to learn everything about fire, which follows with understanding it and finally mastering it" Natsu explained "and you can find there's is so much more than you thought" he finished as he pointed a hand at a candle and the flames stretched and grew at a angle and formed a ball of fire on his palm and formed a lotus flower, then he tensed his fingers and the flames turned into a pizza pan size fire ball, then with a inhale he sucked down the flames like noodles and ate them.
"Hey get your own fire" Max called since Natsu just ate the ones from his table.
"Sorry" Natsu said halfheartedly as he smirked, he finished his food "Thank you Kinana food was delicious" he smiled
"Let me know if you want more" Kinana Winked as she took the dishes away.
"Were you the least bit scared when Acnoloiga was face to face with you?" Romeo asked.
"Well to be honest, no nothing really scares me anymore" Natsu answered "Oh afternoon Mira, Lisanna and Elfman" he turned seeing the said walking in, then Macao thinking of something.
"You sensed them coming even before they arrived at this Guild?" Macao asked The Dragon slayer looked at the man knowing what he was thinking of.
"Yeah I'm always aware of what's going on around me, I did sense Acnologia coming miles ahead" Natsu replied then exhaled "Thats why I tried to get everyone off of Tenrou because I sensed his presence arriving, unfortunately I underestimated at how fast Acnologia can be for something so Dang big" he said "But no matter as I said before, I'll take what happened on Tenrou as a learning moment" he added "But before I decide on anywhere, Think I'll have a bit fun" 'Swat' "hey now" Mira said covering her tush with her hands as Natsu gave her a smack on the caboose with his right hand as she walked past him, but she just smirked with a blush.
"Good afternoon Mira" Natsu smirked.
"Hello to you to My Fire Prince" Mirajane smiled sultry as she leaned in and pecked him on the lips, making Romeo blush.
"Oh and I forgot since you were deprived of something sweat for 7 years" Natsu said before pulling out a box from the pocket of his trenchcoat a rectangle shape box of assorted of chocolates on one half and the other half dark and milk chocolate covered wild berries.
"Thank you my favorite" Mira said taking the gift with smile and ate a couple "mmm" she moaned with delight and walked away "Think fast" she said tossing a chocolate and Natsu caught with his mouth and ate it.
"Whoa Natsu you didn't get rusty in the slightest" Max said seeing Natsu still moved like he never went to Tenrou.
"Thanks Mira" Natsu explained "hey where did you move the library in this place?" he asked facing the aged members.
"Down that hall and to the stairs that lead to the windmill tower, but we may not have everything" Laki pointed.
"Thank you" Natsu said going to the hallway that Laki pointed at, it lead to the library and it was a small room but 'not too cramped' Natsu stated in his mind sarcastically and he got some books from the Dragon Historia "Crap, crap, thats junk" he said going through the pages "Nothing I haven't learned already" he scowled "Hmm White and Black Arts" he said looking at two book covers as he was placing the books back.
"I need to sneak back into our building" Natsu frowned he concentrated on his fire as it appeared around him but they weren't burning anything and left the Guildhall, flashing away in a puff of fire and appeared at the back of the Guild and imagining his body being one with the flames and focused on the inch opened window turned into a trail of fire got in through the opening.
Since no lights were on and most shutters and doors were closed tight it was quite dark, Natsu focused his eyes and his irises turned into a glowing yellow and slit shaped pupil cutting through the darkness and headed to the library not worrying about being seen since no windows in the Guild record room lit a ball of flames in his hand but left the light and not the heat and climbed up the ladder, and picking up a book on Dragon Kings and Dragon Slayers and sat down on a chair placing the book on the table holding the fireball as a lightbulb but looked at the flames and they got brighter.
He opening the book he started reading it, Natsu made sure to read everything and got on Dragon Kings "Okay here we are, 'from the dawn of time Fire Dragons of have been Dragon Kings and Dragon Prince's, and each king passes on a special power to their Prince "Dragon King Mode" it's the state where The Dragon King is at his most powerful, similar to a Dragon Slayer's Dragonforce, except this mode is hundred even a thousand times stronger, but no Dragon King was ever a human because this much power could serious hurt and drain a Dragon Slayer" Cause A Fire Dragon's body or any Dragon has extremely large levels of Endurance and Durability which helps the Dragon to handle this powerful mode without it's body being Damaged" Natsu read "Huh Yeah sounds about right, unless the Dragon Slayer is Completely Invulnerable outside and inside" he told himself "It was a powerful mode but exhausting to" he added.
"The last Dragon King was Igneel the son of Ragnarok the Fire Dragon of Purgatory, but a horrible thing happened the Darkest Dragon in history Acnologia waged war and took the throne and humanity and Dragon's fell, and forever instilled with Terror at the mention of his name Acnologia The Black Dragon of The Apocalypse" Natsu started again, then flipped to the next page "Dragon Kings or are entitled to have more than one mate" he read "Strengths and weaknesses" "Strengths: a Fire Dragon can augment their flames and abilities by the heat and energy of the blazing sun, noon to 3 is the where the sun is it's peak" "check" he said "The Dragon Kings moon: is when the moon runs a blood orange color and The Power of The Dragon King is almost limitless" he stated.
"Weaknesses" Natsu frowned "Even though Dragon Kings are the mightiest force in Earthland but great power doesn't come without an Achilles heel, a weakness, Weaknesses: A solar eclipse cuts their fire powers in half and a the effect of a regular Eclipse the King will lose his fire powers completely and natural abilities will and their bodies durability to decrease" he read "Well when one is to claim to be Dragon King, they must know everything the strengths and weaknesses you just pay half attention to the weakness or just the Strengths and you go in halfcocked and your screwed" he sighed,
As Natsu was putting away The Dragon King's book a smaller book fell out from the first book as he put it away, we went back down and got it he skimmed the cover "Dragonar Academy, the heck" he opened it "an ancient school for Dragon Slayers, Mates and friends, Teachers teach about the History of Dragon Slayers and large campus and Training fields, huge rings on the Mountain tops for sparring" he read, Natsu then slipped it in his pocket and headed back to the door to the Guildhall and turned off his light to avoid being seen and went out the window the same way he got in and puffed away and headed to the stores and bought a strawberry cheesecake and dark chocolate covered mints.
Back at the Second Fairy Tail Guildhall, Erza, Seilah and most everyone arrived.
"So where's Natsu?" Gray asked.
"In the attic reading" Romeo pointed.
"I just was there and he wasn't in there" Laki frowned, then the five picking on Fairy Tail weakened state appeared singed, with Trex with his hair burnt and singe on the right and blistered on his left cheek and nose peeling and face and angry master arrived "Oh what now" she grumbled.
"Makarov you owe me a fine for one of your flame spraying members barging into my Guild" Banabooster sat in front of him.
"Did he burn down your Guildhall for you trashing ours" Makarov stated.
"Actually no, but he attacked my Guild" Banabooster pointed at the singed members.
"your still alive Critten" Seilah stated coldly.
"Anyway you'll pay or" Banabooster started
"Or what our Guild is whole again" Makarov challenged then decided to brag "and our Ace is back to protect it" he smirked in a boastful way.
"What Gildarts? he's hardly around" Trex glared, the Tenrou members smirked.
"Fairy Tail has a new Ace, Natsu Dragneel is The Ace of Fairy Tail" they all stated.
"SAY WHAT!" The aged members yelled.
"Am I interrupting something?" A voice spoke they all jumped and saw Natsu standing there with a hard stone cold glare at the Ogre members placing the boxes on the table next to him "I see your master didn't get the memo" he frowned "But I need to have a word with Makarov so beat it or get thrown out" he warned.
"You got lucky but I'm ready" Banabooster swung but the Dragon slayer was too quick he easily sidestepped a strike.
"I got him" Trex said using his speed magic and tried to attack by grabbing him from the back but he ducked under the grab quickly and stuck his foot out and tripped Trex sending him skidding on the floor, Natsu crouched and weaved under a swing of thick stick.
'Thwack!' sounded as the stick hit another Ogre member in the face and he stepped to the members side and looped his arm under his arm and hiptossed him into the member he hit, he then grabbed an arm stopping a fist by the wrist stepped in lifting the slight bigger member and throwing him over his shoulder into Banabooster.
Natsu then snapped around and stopped Trex by his head with a hand who was using his speed magic again grabbed his shoulder falling back and placing a foot on Trex's stomach doing a stomachwheel sending the mage over him and popped back up on a knee lighted his hands as the members stood up with a beautiful violet fire "Fire Hail Mary Knuckles!" he threw his arms forward and fists of violet fire flew out and struck the members with high speed and knocking them off their feet and on the ground "Fire Ensnarement!" he called as inch thick fire tendrils wrapped around the members but he made the fire not burn them and wrapped them up together and dragged them out the doors "You guys are lame" he scowled at the members of Twilight Ogre before giving them grim stare "Now go away!" he snapped before he made the fire strands retract into a 2 foot strand and spun them like a bola over his head and stepping forward with a snap with a mighty throw sent the members flying back to their guildhall.
"Thats how you take care of the garbage" Natsu said fixing his longcoat as he walked back in "Sorry if I hogged the fun but they were very annoying" he said.
"I would've thrown them out to if they were here a second longer" Makarov chuckled.
"Good to know you haven't lost your touch" Wakaba said.
"Anyway where we you?, you weren't in the attic" Romeo asked.
"Well snuck into our old Guildhall and snatched a book" Natsu said pulling out the small book from his pocket "Couldn't find much upstairs and too cramped" he stated.
"Did someone see you?" Laki placed her hand on her hip.
"nope got in through the back" Natsu smirked then frowned "speaking of which who left a window open, someone could've broke in" he said.
"Someone did" Romeo joked.
"I told you guys to close all the windows" Macao frowned at the aged members.
"Anyway Seilah and Erza for your sweet tooth" Natsu said getting the boxes and handing them it who eagerly opened them Erza had a strawberry cheesecake and Seilah got dark chocolate covered thin mints.
"My favorite!" Erza and Seilah stated and dug in
"Anyway Master can I have a word with you?" Natsu said firmly.
"of course my boy" Makarov nodded.
"It's about this book I found" Natsu explained he showed him it Dragonar Academy was on the front.
"The Ancient School for Dragon Slayers?" Makarov raised a brow "I've heard Rumor's of this place when I was young from Porlyusica, a school in the Town of Draconia" he said.
"Would it be possible to find this place so the rumors are actually true or not, if it is I would like to take my mates, Gajeel, Wendy and Laxus there?" Natsu asked.
"Hmm I guess it couldn't hurt to check it out first, alright permission granted" Makarov stated "just be careful oh and take this in case I need your help" he said handing him a Lacrima phone.
"How do these stupid things work?" Natsu looked at it.
"It has everyone contacts on it just click on a name and lacrima screen will appear in front of the person" Makarov explained
"I may not like phones but alright" Natsu said and headed out, he headed to his house and started to get ready to find the ancient school where Dragon Slayers have visited.
