Heartfilia's and Dreyar's
Chapter 6: Meeting the Dragon Slayers
It was a normal day at the Heartfilia Konzern when a strange magical light appeared out of nowhere. This caused Lucy to go and investigate what was going on, when she got there, she was soon shocked because of what she saw. She saw her mother Layla sitting there in the middle of a massive magic circle with all twelve Zodiac gate keeps with her and from what she could see her mother was opening a magical gate and then it went dark then she saw the shadows of 5 children.
"Mum what's happening?" a frightened Lucy asked to her mother Layla.
"Don't worry my child, these children are here to help to save our world from the threats of Zeref and any others who would try and take away the future for you and anyone else" Layla said as she was smiling to her daughter to make her feel safe with what is going on.
A few days later
Layla was greeted by some members of the magic council along with God Serena who had a plan of taking the dragon slayers to Acnologia. The dragon slayers in question were playing with Lucy in the gardens of the Heartfilia estate.
"My lady please forgive the intrusion from us, but we have come to discuss the matter of the dragon slayers with you?"
"We think it is best if they were to go to someone who knows dragon slaying magic".
"Of course, I agree with you both" Layla stated to the magic council and to God Serena.
"The only issue is we do not know the whereabouts of Acnologia" said God Serena to Layla.
"Do not worry I know where to find him. If you could come with me, please God Serena, he may take it better from you then from the magic council".
"Of course, my lady Layla I will go with you to see Acnologia."
Whilst this was happening
"Hi, my name is Lucy, it's nice to meet all of you. What are your names?"
"I'm Natsu and this Wendy, Gajeel, Sting and Rogue" said the pink haired dragon slayer to the young blonde-haired girl.
It was a couple of hours later when Layla, Lucy and God Serena had left to go and see Acnologia who is currently at the Fairy Tail guild. Acnologia lives in the forest near the town of Magnolia, nice and away from the Fairy Tail guild in which he goes to regularly, not so much to socialise with the actual members more like have a drink and talk to Master Makarov. It was during the time where Acnologia could be found in the Fairy Tail guild where he was approached by a woman and her child along with God Serena, the two adults look very concerned and were still in deep conversation as they approached him. They appeared like they had not quite noticed that they had reached the person that they needed to speak with about what to do with the 5 dragon slayer children. The woman and her child both resembled someone Acnologia knew who had lived 400 years ago (Anna Heartfilia), the other person a male that looked supposedly like he was only borderline an adult by his appearance.
The young were the first out of the three to speak "Excuse me are you, Ac-Acno-Acnologia" she struggled to say his name but eventually got it out after trying twice but then she succeeded the final time she attempted to say his name.
"Yes, it is" was his mumbled reply.
"We have something that we would like to discuss with you in private," said Layla.
"It will only take a few moments of your time" stated God Serena.
"I suppose so" was Acnologia gruff response to what the pair had just told him.
Layla quickly turned to Lucy who was sat talking to Makarov and Laxus, "Stay with Makarov, do not go anyway else".
"Yes mother" was the mumbled response from her daughter.
Outside the guild
"What exactly do you two want?"
"It's about the dragon slayers that have recently come through the eclipse gate."
"What do they have to do with me?"
"Since you are the only dragon slayer around you will be in charge of the five children that came through the gate."
"Don't worry Acnologia me and Layla here will be around to help you and so will Makarov and the rest of the adults in Fairy Tail."
"I guess if I have no choice then I will have to take the five of them on then."
"That's the spirit" they said in unison.
Back inside the guild
Laxus started to chase the younger blonde around the guild hall, which caused the younger blonde to start laughing hysterically. Once they had given up chasing each other, Laxus suddenly stopped a picked Lucy up and threw her in the air and then catches her before she fell onto the floor. Makarov could only watch his grandson with the younger blonde. Makarov of course knew who she was, but the rest had no idea who she, Layla, God Serena and Acnologia were but he welcomed them into his guild. After all the four of the were all mages. Makarov was even aware that Lucy and Laxus are related to each other, not that he was allowed to say anything to either blonde.
Suddenly the trio returned into the guild and Layla quickly whispered to Acnologia that he could come to her home anytime the following day to meet the dragon slayer children, which he agreed to do so. Layla then stopped at the table where she found her daughter, father-in-law and nephew. "Come on Lucy we have to go back home".
A slight tear came from Lucy's eyes as she really did not want to leave her cousin and grandfather. Not that Lucy knew this yet.
"Don't worry you can come back any day as long as Jude and Layla agree" said Makarov to the now full-on crying Lucy.
"Mum when can we go back to the guild" said the younger blonde to the older blonde.
"Tomorrow my darling, as that is when we will drop Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Sting and Rogue to Acnologia".
"Ok mum".
Layla was keeping a massive secret from Lucy as she had not yet told her that she is related to Laxus, Makarov and Ivan.
Soon it would be Lucy's birthday and Layla and Jude had bought Lucy a key and this key is the key for the chained lady Andromeda.
