"I give." Gildarts lowered his power but Natsu was still shaking.

"Wonderful. I will not blame you for being brave Natsu. Those with the courage to know when to give up and re-sheath your blades are exceptionally rare. Fear is not evil. It is to know your own weakness. If you know your weakness, people can become strong and gentle. That's what is necessary to becoming an S class. Now know this... You pass."


Part 2: Chapter 22: Tenrou Island Arc Part 4

"I... Passed..." Natsu looked at Gildarts confused. "But I..."

"Go. Your supervisor said you passed. But the exam doesn't end here. Don't forget. There are still fighters outside waiting. Have confidence. You can do it. From here on out, I'm talking to you not as a supervisor, but as a friend. Powerful magic isn't everything about a man. But I understand your desire to win. This has nothing to do with age or career. Naruto is the same as you. He finds something within him when his friends are close to him. You can fight me any time you want. Now go become an S class... Natsu." Gildarts smiled as he left Natsu and Happy inside the cave.


Natsu took his time emerging from his route but he wasn't the first one to arrive. Levy and Gajeel were the first to make it out. But Natsu didn't say anything to them. Lucy and Cana were also out side but Natsu again didn't speak to them. He even ignored Naruto and the master.

"Hey, Happy. What burning through his mind?"

"I don't know Naruto. He's been like this since he beat Gildarts."

"HE BEAT GILDARTS?!" Naruto yelled out but covered his mouth so his grandfather did hear him.

"Well he really didn't. Gildarts just let him pass."

"Gildarts only would've done that for a reason. Anyway you two get some rest. At most only two pairs are left to come out." No sooner had Naruto finished Gray and Loke emerged.

"So look who turned up." Naruto crossed his arms together and stared blankly at Gray. "You took long enough."

"Shut it Naruto." Gray yelled back at Naruto.

"So you made it through the second exam." Lucy was the second to welcome Gray. Gray only had seen Lucy, Cana, Levy and Gajeel in front.

"There we all that's left?"

"Nope Natsu's over here." Naruto pointed to Natsu who was staring away from the group.

"Well It appears everyone is here." Makarov walked up to the group. "Cana and Lucy beat Freed and Bickslow in the Battle route." Lucy showed Gray a smug look as his and Loke's jaw hit the floor.

"Think that's bad, heh. Natsu and Happy over here beat Gildarts in the Hard Battle route." Naruto pointed again to Natsu. Gray and Loke again where both stunnned. "Levy and Gajeel got the luck though as they took the Quiet route."

"There was nothing lucky about it Shadow!" Gajeel yelled at Naruto as he cursed his own luck.

"And you two boys overcame Mest and Wendy in the other Battle route." Makarov finished off the summary of what had more or less happened in the second exam.

"Hey master what about Juvia?" When Gray asked Makarov's face turned white with fear.

"They ran into... Her... That female knight that doesn't know how to hold back. The bringer of pain and suffering... Also known as."

"My girlfriend." Naruto cut off Makarov from finishing this speech. The looks Naruto was giving Makarov sent shivers down his old spine.

"So that only leaves Elfman and Evergreen." Lucy spoke of who was the only one unaccounted for at that moment.

"The only one left they could fight is..." Cana thought about who was left until it hit them all at the same time. "Mirajane."

Soon they heard movement coming from the bushes. Evergreen and Elfman soon emerged. "Wait! We beat Mira. We got past her!" Everyone looked at how badly beaten they both looked. Evergreen was even holding up Elfman from falling over.

"How did you beat Mira?" Happy asked both mages who suddenly stopped moving forward.

"I can't say that. As a man."

"Lets just say we managed to get a split second opening and took it."

"That's enough for now. These five teams have officially passed the second exam. Now the Third exam shall begin." Makarov got everyone attention. All except Natsu.

"Hey Natsu. How much longer are you gonna be depressed for?"

"No... I'm just thinking about something."

"NATSU! THINKING ABOUT! SOMETHIIIING!" Happy comically yelled out.

Natsu ignored Happy and stood up. "GRAY! CANA! LEVY! ELFMAN!" Natsu pointed to each mage as he yelled their name. "I challenge you to see who can become an S class wizard!"

"There's only one who I refuse to lose to."

"Bring it!"

"Me too."

"AS A MAN I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO ACCEPT THAT CHALLENNNNNNGE!"

"Then let us begin the third exam." Everyone turned to face the master. "You'll be given six hours to find the grave of the first master Mavis. I'll be waiting by the grave itself. Naruto have you marked the grave site?"

"Yes. I placed a kunai there this morning before you arrived." Cana and Levy looked almost happy about knowing this. "Oh and it's not gonna be there for long girls so you won't be able to track my chakra on it."

"What do you mean?" Cana asked Naruto with a raised eyebrow.

Naruto placed his hand on Makarov's shoulder. Both Dreyars smiled. "This is what Naruto mean Cana."

"REVOLVING FLYING RAIJIN!" In a golden flash Makarov disappeared and in Naruto's hand was one of his kunai. "It means i'll have the kunai so tracking it only tells you where I am." Naruto trolled both female mages as he spun the kunai on his index finger. "Now your six hours begins... Now!"


The mages had been away for almost an hour. Erza soon came out after holding both a knocked out Juvia and Lisanna. Nartuo lead them to their base camp set up not far from the exit of each route. As soon as they arrived at camp they woke up. Erza then started to prepare the meal for everyone while Naruto dressed up the girls with bandages. Mira arrived shortly after holding on to her left cheek where there was a nasty looking bruise.

"Looks like Elfman got a good hit on you eh?" Naruto couldn't help but smile at Mira's misfortune. Mira took it light heartedly.

"I thought the punch was bad they gave me a heart attack a second before."

"What happened?"

"Evergreen said they were getting married."

"WHAT! Elfman and Evergreen are getting married?!" Erza only heard the word marriage. Her face had a bright red blush on it.

"Well that's what Evergreen said to me before Elfman hit me pretty hard."

"Wait a minute! When's the ceremony?! And when did they become a couple?!"

"Erza I think it was a trick to get Mira's guard down." Naruto tried his best to calm Erza down.

"Was it really a plan?!" Erza questioned Mira while pointing a wooden spoon.

"I don't think so was real Erza. I don't even think they're like you two and going out. I mean if they got married and had a kid..." Mira soon imagined a little baby with Elfman's head with Evergreen's hair and glasses. The image burned into her mind as she cried into her hands.

"Don't cry Mira. Depending on how you think about it that baby could be cute." Erza tried to reasure Mira.

"I don't think Elfman plus Evergreen could ever equal cute, Erza." Naruto shot down Erza's comments. Mira now was crying even harder. "Oh shit!"

"Now look what you did Naruto!"

"What I did? You tried to give her false hope!"

Lisanna and Juvia watched the scene unfold in front of them. As Erza and Naruto were having a bit of a lovers quarrel.

"I wonder what Erza and Naruto's child would look like?" Lisanna thought to herself out loud as Juvia was stuck in on of her romantic day dreams about Gray again.

"And you snore in bed!"

"So what if I snore It's a natural thing! At least I don't fart under the covers."

"I do not fart!"

"Of course you don't why do you think the room always smells in the morning?"

"That's because semen makes the room smell... I read it in a magazine"

As the argument went on all three female mages grew brighter and brighter blushes as some of the comments/insults got a bit blue.

"Fine then!"

"FINE THEN! Come on Juvia were going to find Wendy and Mest. They're taking too long." Erza grabbed Juvia and marched away from the camp.

"Fuck this. I'm off to see Jiji. FLYING RAIJIN!" Naruto was gone in a flash.

This now left Mira and Lisanna staring blankly as to what happened. "Well At least I've got the image of the baby out of my head."


(Levy and Gajeel)

"OUT OF MY WAY!" Gajeel yelled wildly as he smashed the face of a giant monster out of his path. "What's the deal with this exam?! Pick a path, Find a grave!"

"Ahhh, so noisy." Levy tried to cover her ears from Gajeel's rants.

"I just wanna punch Salamander, Shadow and Titania!"

"So you don't care about me?!"

"Huh? I'm not saying that!"

"But you always fight with everyone Gajeel! You never... Look at me..."

"You want some attention shrimp?" Gajeel started to pat the top of Levy's head. "Then fight me seriously with me! Get Stronger!"

Levy knew she wasn't strong but Gajeel was making her feel for the first time frustrated with herself. She quickly kicked Gajeel in his grion area and ran off. "I DON'T CARE ANYMORE! STUPID GAJEEL!"

"Hey stop!" Gajeel held one hand out to Levy as the other hold onto his jewels.

'What's with him... I finally thought he had sort of changed into a good person... What a jerk. I hate him! I hate him, I hate him, I HATE HIM!' Levy thought to herself as she ran through the jungle. She heard movement from behind her. She turned to face the noise. "Gajeel?"

Suddenly two figures who she didn't know jumped out from the bushes. The closest to her who looked like a dog drew out a katana and tried to cut off Levy's head. Luckily Levy fell backwards and his sword only cut her head band.

"Wh... What!? Who are you?!" Levy didn't have time to think as the other figure who looked like a chicken grabbed her hand pulling them upwards and pinned her to the ground.

The dog man then gripped his katana tightly. "You're our first catch of the day... NOW DIE!"


And Cut! So the end of the trails is upon us. What will happen next? Tune in next time! Most likely will be around 3am GMT on tuesday morning. So here is this chapter's Q&A!

1) Will Naruto be getting Chain magic? No. I know a lot of people. And I do mean a lot were asking this. There is a reason behind this. Chain magic belongs to Hades. And if Naruto were to have chakra chains it would be cannon. I know this is fan fiction and all but please remember. Not all stories have to be exactly the same.

2) Favourite Naruto moment? I has to be Naruto swipping away the five tailed beast bomb in order to save Kakashi and Might Guy. And when Kakashi confuses Naruto for Minato. Then moments late we get the first look of Kurama and Naruto fight together. I thought it epic in the manga but when it was showed in the anime I was like a child watching it.

3) Cross overs or regular fan fiction? I've only written two crossovers and yet to try a regular but I do enjoy both reading wise. I find some crossovers really creative and the AU's of the regular being well thought out.

That's all for this chapter. As always if you have any question feel free to ask either by review or PM. I hope you've all enjoyed this chapter. Till next time!
