Chapter 6

Mountains Will Crumble In The Wild

Romeo's eyes snap open and he sat up straight in such a hurry that he nearly collided with Porlyusica, who was leaning over him checking his wounds.

"Fonaar and Wendy are fighting!", he screams out, causing both Porlyusica and Roubaul to stare at him bewildered.

"What?", was all the Potion Mage could say.

"Fonaar and Wendy are fighting!", Romeo repeats as he stands up waving his arms around before feeling a pain shoot through the back of his head. He touches the spot where it was originating from and was surprised to feel something moist and when he brings his hand back he notices small batches of red on his fingertips.

"Huh?"

"You got injure at the beginning of all this mess,", Porlyusica began to explain, "You should be fine as long as you don't strain yourself."

"Now, you said something about Wendy fighting?", Roubaul question.

"Yeah, over by a bunch of big rocks with a pond, or a lake, or a really small ocean, or a really big puddle! I didn't get a real good look at it, but-!" Romeo shouts as he starts getting energetic again.

"Easy there, boy", Master Roubaul says calmly, hoping to settle the boy down, "Take a deep breath."

"But-!", Romeo starts to shout before Porlyusica intervene.

"Calm down, Romeo!", she tells him and the boy looks up at her with a tearful expression.

"But-!", he tries once again, only this time Roubaul stop him by holding a hand up to his face.

"The longer it takes you to calm down, the longer it's going to take us to stop Wendy and Fonaar. If we hurry, we can get there in time.", he states, causing Porlyusica to throw him a look of confusion.

"Did I miss something here? Romeo was unconscious when Wendy, Carla, and Fonaar went off into the woods; how could he possibly know where they are at?"

Roubaul takes a breath before moving toward the door, "Time is a major factor right now. I know where this place that Romeo speaks of is and like I said, we must hurry and get there before something happens."

"I understand that, but you haven't answered my question", Porlyusica states.

"I'll explain later, but now, come Romeo", Roubaul says, "For like I said beforehand while you were knock out, you're the only one here who can stop those two."

The forest surrounding Cait Shelter's village

Ferocious would best describe the opponent Wendy was currently facing. In her opinion, this dragon was the truly the embodiment of savage fury. Despite the bleeding gash that was over its right eye that Wendy dealt him during her surprise attack, the dragon refuses to relinquish any of his savageries from earlier, if anything it only increased from the wounds Wendy has inflicted on him so far. He seemed to ignore the wound on his eye, as well as the wide tears in his left wing that Wendy left in it when she got in a lucky Sky Dragon's Crushing Fang all the while seeming unfazed by the wounds that she already inflicted on him back at the village. She has already cast Vernier, Arms, and Armor on herself, (a fact that dishearten her to no end because she was trying to avoid that, but she couldn't take chances with this opponent) and yet she was barely keeping the upper hand in the fight and if she was to cast the lle version of them, her magic would quickly burn out.

"Not even the green dragon gave me this much trouble", Wendy thought as she and the dragon circled one another, once more getting ready to clash. Carla was currently hiding in a nearby bush, watching the action while cradling her ribs. An earlier tail swat from the young dragon caught her in the back and send her flying into a rock. Luckily for her, it wasn't going full force and she was able to recover after only being knocked out for a few moments, though she felt at least two or three ribs were broken.

"Wendy having a harder time defeating this dragon than the last two she's faced. If something doesn't happen soon..."

But Carla's thoughts were interrupted as the dragon lets out a roar and began charging toward Wendy.

All Fonaar could see was red at the moment. It was either from his sheer rage or the fact that the gash across his eye was painfully bleeding and starting to blur his sight. Either way, he felt himself being pulled into a frenzy of some sort; something that felt familiar yet foreign at the same time. It was dark, instinctual, and he felt the violent urge to unleash it on the human in front of him. In the deepest part of his mind, he heard a voice calling to him, kind and surprisingly feminine, telling him to stem his anger, to control it, to not let it take over. But there was also another voice, harsh and masculine, telling him to use the pain that was inflicted on him to fuel his rage and turn it into a weapon. Both were somewhat familiar to him, despite him being unable of putting a face to their voices.

But he didn't have time to ponder over this as he pushes off of the ground and charges toward the human, his claws leaving deep gouges in the dirt as he did so. An ear-piercing roar erupts from his lungs and echoes throughout the forest as lunges at the blue-haired girl. His first claw attack causes her to lean back in alarm as she is barely able to avoid a full-on swipe and instead just loses a few strands of hair, but Fonaar did not relent in his attacks. A fatal blow from a savage bite attack is narrowly avoided as he is furious to see the blue-hair girl leaps backward in time, only allowing Fonaar to get a piece of fabric from her sundress within his jaws.

Wendy berates her luck as she lands some feet away from the dragon. The villages seamstress, Yuna, worked a solid three months sewing this particular dress up for her and now it was ruined, but she had little time to dwell on this. Wendy backs up in order to get out of range of her opponent claws but was terrified when she found herself bumping into solid rock and realizes that she was running out of room to maneuver, a death sentence for one facing off against such a terrible creature. She glances to her right and spots a rock with an incline within running distance, the path to the top protected on both sides by two formidable boulders. Making a break for it while the dragon was busy spitting out the strips of her sundress out of his mouth, Wendy sprints toward the formation getting a good three seconds to start before the dragon realizes what was going on, but when he finally does, it was safe to say that he was not happy. Taking off after her within two bounds he was right on her tail, literally snapping at her heels as the girl descends onto the rock.

Wendy ignores as best she could the sweat stinging her eyes as she made her way up, narrowly dodging the dragon's teeth as he snaps at her. Bursting through the gap, a swiping claw missing her expose back by inches as the dragon finds itself stuck between the hole between the boulders, but continued nonetheless to snap and swipe futilely at the girl with his one free talon.

Fonaar's pupils were dilated and his eyes were now blood red as he finally abandons any restraint he had on his anger, his singular focus now on getting his teeth and claws latch onto the blue-haired girl in front of him. The voice that had been telling him to control himself and calm down was now barely a whisper compared to the booming voice that was demanding that he bathe himself in the girl's blood no matter what the cost.

As for Wendy, ever hair on her body was still on edge, despite her being at the top of the rock, a good forty feet from where the dragon continued to thrash about, trap securely between the two rocks.

"A dragon so young, yet so fierce. It would no doubt become a problem if allowed to get any bigger", Wendy thought as she began to suck in the air around her into her mouth, hoping to end this fight with a near point-blank attack, but unbeknownst to her, the dragon was ready for her this time.

Despite Fonaar being in an almost uncontrollable state of rage, he knew what the blue-haired girl was planning next and this time he was ready to counter her as he too began to take in a breath.

Carla notices this and yells out to warn her charge.

"Wendy, look out! He's about to unleash his breath attack as well!"

Wendy hears Carla's warning and immediately stops her spell.

"A dragon this young may be able to breathe fire, but I doubt it could reach me at this distance, his draconis fundamentumis is not developed enough. But nonetheless I already have seen what happens when my spells collide with fire and I can't afford an explosion helping him break free", Wendy thought as she looks above the dragon and realizes something, "If I let him go ahead and use up his fire breath, I'll be able to get over him and attack him from above where he's vulnerable."

She then proceeds to stand her ground and let the dragon waste his effort on his futile attack and she didn't have to wait long.

Fonaar could feel the power generating deep within his body and could feel it as it travels through his body and out his maw and his last thought before unleashing it was that he was glad the blue-hair girl foolishly gave his time to do so.

"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!", an overwhelming roar, much higher in magnitude than the one from before in the village erupts from the dragon's mouth, sending Wendy to the ground due to its sheer volume, and making her press her hands over her ears so hard that you think she was trying to crush her own head. It was as though a thousand spears were trying to penetrate into her skull and her enhanced hearing wasn't helping matters, it only made things worse. Carla from her place on the ground, where she was rolling around in pain, was barely able to get one eye open in order to see how Wendy was holding up.

If I'm hurting from this distance, then she can't be any better off", Carla thought as witness the Sky Dragon Slayer curled up on the ground, her hands sealed over her ears. But Carla soon found her attention focuses somewhere else, "Are those cracks I see appearing in the rocks?"

Forest

Romeo, Porlyusica, Roubaul, and the hunters that were escorting them all collapse to the forest floor in pain, the echoing of the roar proving too much for them. Romeo found himself barely able to function as he kept his eyes closed and his ears covered.

"So loud", he thought as the intensity of the sound seem to only grow over time, "That almost sounds like Fonaar, except he sounds angry for some reason! What is he angry about? Was it because of Wendy? Was it because of me?!"

For some unknown reason, Romeo knew he had to get to Fonaar before something terrible happen, but he couldn't even get himself to stand up, let alone head toward the roar. But then, that was when something strange happened. Romeo felt something in his chest as he peeks his eyes open to see the mark on his chest glowing green once again and before he knew it, he found himself able to hear again, only this time everything sounded muffled, like as though the world was speaking to him with a hand over its mouth. The roar could still be heard but it was more bearable to listen to than before.

"Huh?", Romeo wondered as he began to stand up and saw that he was the only one able to do so as he noticed Porlyusica, Roubaul, and the others were still on the ground. Romeo wondered if he should stay to help them, but Fonaar's safety somehow pushes his legs to take off through the forest, following the sound of the roar as he slightly bumps into one of the hunters before heading down the dirt path.

Porlyusica was trying her hardest to somehow withstand the sheer power of the roar but found herself utterly failing in that endeavor. She could barely manage to open her eyes, but what she did witness while in this state amaze and confuse her. Romeo staying up as though nothing was happening.

"But how?",she wondered, "How is he able to do this", she asks herself before noticing that Romeo's birthmark was once again glowing green.

"Does that have something to do with it?" she thought before seeing Romeo take off as fast as his little legs could take him, faster than she ever seen him run, "Was he always that fast or is my old age catching up to me?"

She then witnesses him bumping into one of the hunters…

And is utterly dumbfounded when she sees the hunter flicker a bit. He faded in and out, like a dying lightbulb, only out of existence. It happened only for a moment before he returns to a solid state, but Porlyusica was sure she saw it.

"What was that?"

The Rock Formation

Fonaar's entire body was vibrating as he let loose his sonic roar, an attack that has helped him more than once in the past year. From the sheer strength to its range it was easy to see why the young dragon could only use it twice a day due to the stress it put on his lungs. But nevertheless, the attack was buying him time for while this version of his sonic roar cause no sustaining physical damage to whoever heard it, its high frequency and the vibrations it produces serve another purpose.

A purpose that Fonaar could feel taking place all around him as he took in the sight of the rock formations that were trapping him beginning to sprout cracks that spread all around them. Within moments large chunks of the stone began to break off and plummet to the ground around the dragon and dragon-slayer and before anyone could react, the entire formation gave way and collapse.

Carla looks on in horror as Wendy and the dragon both fall to the forest floor with thousands of pounds of stone falling down on top of them. The large dust storm that was kicked up blind the exceed for a moment from seeing the condition her companion was in and while gritting her teeth and ignoring the pain in her ribs, she summon her wings and slowly hovers over to where she last saw the girl, frantically calling her name.

"Wendy! Wendy! Wendy, where are you? Answer me!", Carla cries out as she nears the location where she witnesses the Sky Dragon-Slayer hit the ground before she was buried. As she searches through the rubble for any signs of life, she hears a faint voice carrying through the wind.

"Carla? Are you there?", the exceed heard coming from a short distance away from her and she flew as fast as she could to where she heard the voice coming from.

"Wendy, are you okay?!", Carla screams as she lands at a gap between the rocks, "Are you hurt anywhere?"

"I'm fine, Carla. My ears hurt a little, but other than that, I'm okay", Wendy reassures her, "Luckily for me, these rocks didn't crush me."

Carla began observing her surroundings for a moment, "I don't see the dragon anywhere. I think he might have been crush to death."

"Let's hope so, I'm in no condition to keeping fighting him after all that", Wendy sulkily admitted.

"Think you can get out?"

"I should be able to", Wendy answers as she begins squeezing her way through the hole, her upper body getting through quite easily and while her hips gave her trouble….

"I told you to cut down on those sweets but no, you didn't want to listen", Carla chastise, ignoring Wendy's face drop.

"But Laria has the best candy!", the girl protested as she manages to get out and takes a look at the mess that laid before her.

"This was a nice place to go swimming in the summer, now I don't think if anyone will want to come here", she says as she looks down at Carla, still clutching her ribs.

"Hold still while I heal you, okay?" Wendy says in a gentle voice.

"You don't have enough magic to do that! You should wait until after you have rested and regained your energy", Carla protests, though Wendy ignores her as her own hands lit up.

A moment later, her magic dims.

"There, all done", Wendy says, though Carla could clearly see the signs of exhaustion on the girl's face.

"She has been through a lot today. All that use of her magic and she still only defeated the dragon by sheer luck", the cat thought before speaking, "Come on, Wendy, I'll get you back to the village."

"I may have healed you Carla, but that doesn't mean all of your energy has returned", Wendy says as a soft smile dons her lips, "You're just as tired as I am, so we'll walk back to the village."

It was at that moment that the wind shifted direction and was blowing from behind the two girls…It was also at that moment that Wendy froze in place as her nose picked up an all too familiar smell.

The smell of dragon's blood coming from behind her.

Wendy slowly turns around and follow the scent upward, a terrified expression appearing on her face as she sees the young dragon standing on top of a collapsed rock not far from her and Carla, snarling at her with his narrow eyes, his teeth brandish and gleaming in the sunlight and his razor sharp claws leaving deep trails in the stone. A low yet fearful growl escapes his throat as he locks eyes with Wendy, who could only stand there, petrified in fear that the creature before her has survived having a small mountain topple on him.

Fonaar considered himself lucky at the moment. Lucky in the fact that the first boulder that collapses on him stopped short of crushing him to death while also acting as a shield to protect him from the rest of them. He was fortunate that a clear path to the surface was also available to him, and finally, he felt like he was being favored by a higher power in the fact that the dragon-slayer wasn't aware of his presence until it was too late, along with her wasting some of her last bit of magic on healing her flying companion. So when he leaped at her with the last bit of his strength, he felt more confident than ever that he was going to emerge victorious in this fight.

By the time Wendy snap out of shock, it was too late. One moment she was staring up at the dragon and the next she felt the heavy blow of the dragon's tail slamming into her ribcage, barreling her to the side, straight into a wall of stone and granite, the thunderous impact so powerful that she left a crater imprinted into it. In that instant, Wendy was glad that she was gifted with the famous dragon-slayer durability for it was the only reason she was still alive, though she felt three ribs crack under the blow. The moment she collapsed on the ground, she instantly struggles to get back on her feet, showing signs of the infamous dragon-slayer's stubbornness that Natsu Dragneel was so famous for. But it was all for not as she is laid flat on the ground with a heavy downward swat from the dragon's second tail attack, this time forming a miniature crater on the ground underneath Wendy with the tremendous power that was behind it. Dragon-Slayer toughness or not, Wendy was now coughing up spats of blood with that last attack and felt her head starting to becoming dizzy and her vision starts to swirl.

"WENDY!", Carla screams, her presence going completely unnoticed by the dragon as the feline flew toward the beast and started clawing at its eyes, hoping to distract the monster from her companion who was now lying on the ground, struggling to stand despite her intense pain. Carla manages to lure the dragon away from Wendy a good couple of yards, but as fate would have it, she was nothing more than a minor nuisance to it as she was easily swatted away by one of its wings into the rocks, knocking her out cold. Now there was nothing standing between Wendy and the dragon as it slowly stalks toward her. Try as she might, Wendy couldn't bring herself to stand up let alone cast a spell. Every time she tries to suck in air, her body exploded in pain, sending her to the edge of unconsciousness.

"Am I really not as strong as the other dragon-slayers?", Wendy wondered to herself just as the dragon crouched down, readying himself to pounce and finish her off.

Just as the creature propelled itself forward a blur appeared between Wendy and the ferocious dragon, forcing him to bring his movement to an abrupt halt.

"ENOUGH FONAAR!", she hears as she tries to get a good look at the newcomer and she's shocked beyond belief when it turns out to be the little boy who just arrived this morning.

Fonaar was at a loss, one moment he is about to claim victory over the blue-hair girl and the next, the very reason he was fighting her appear in front of him ordering him to stop. A roar erupts from his mouth, directed at Romeo.

"No, I will not get out of the way! Stop hurting Wendy! She's a nice person!", Romeo argues back, not at all fazed by the roar or the fact that Fonaar was now in his face, snarling and growling.

"When did she try to hurt me?", Romeo suddenly asks, receiving a series of howls and growls from the dragon as Wendy looks on in confusion, wondering if the pain was causing her to be delusional.

"How come the dragon isn't attacking Romeo? In fact, it looks like he arguing with him, that can't be right, can it?" Wendy wonders as she looks over to where Carla was thrown to and instantly panics for the cat was sporting a huge, bleeding gash mark on her head.

"CARLA!", Wendy screams out and tries to crawl over to her, only to be intercepted by the dragon who immediately jumped in front of her, his gaping maw only a mere five feet away from her face. Something catches her attention from above and she moves her head out of the way in time to avoid being impaled by the deadly stinger that was at the end of the dragon's tail, it easily embedding itself into the hard rock beneath them.

But before the dragon could ready another strike with its tail, Romeo was once again in between them, chastising him.

"Fonaar, I say stop it! Bad dragon! That is a very bad dragon!", Romeo yells as he points a finger at the dragon's face. The dragon merely roars in response and actually looks downcast by the treatment he was receiving from the boy.

Wendy utter shock could not be put to words for what she was witnessing, but she had no time to dwell on it as she, Romeo, and the dragon were suddenly surrounded by a group of hunters from her village, all wielding spears and bows, trained on the dragon.

Romeo watch in surprises as Fonaar suddenly starts to snarl and roar louder than he was before, turning his head in all direction while snapping his jaws at the hunters and his tail swinging wildly about, looking like he was ready to slaughter them at a moment's notice, despite being surrounded by them. The hunters didn't seem intimidated in the slightest as they continued to keep their weapons aimed at Fonaar, particularly his head. Romeo feels a tail wrap around him and he is pulled toward Fonaar as the dragon covers the entire area around Romeo with his body in a way that the boy could barely see the hunters themselves.

This seems only to agitated the hunters as they began to move in closer to Fonaar and Romeo, closing the circle they had formed around them.

"Is he protecting Romeo? From the hunters?", Wendy whispers to herself as she hears movement coming from the side of her and sees both Roubaul and Porlyusica appear from out of the forest, both extremely out of breath, yet still running toward all the action. As they get to the edges of the ever-tightening circle of hunters, Roubaul spoke something out in their Nirvit dialect, causing the hunters to briefly turn their attention toward him. When one of the spoke out, Roubaul immediately bangs his staff on the ground and repeated what he just said only this time with more force behind his voice. The hunters nod their heads in agreement and turn their full attention back toward the Fonaar and Romeo.

"I'm going to assume you told them to stand down and that they're just taking their time to do so because they are not on the best of terms with Fonaar", Porlyusica states as she casts a glare at the Guild Master.

"I would say you're half right at best", Roubaul explains, "I told them to not stand down until the dragon stands down."

"WHAT?!", echoes throughout the forest and Roubaul kept a calm expression on his face as Porlyusica laid into him, "What is that suppose to mean?!"

"Exactly what I said, my hunters will stand down when Romeo gets the dragon to stand down", Roubaul replies as he points over Wendy and Carla, "I highly suggest you go see to them; Wendy may be tough for her size but she's not invincible and Carla may need some medical attention, let me handle the boy."

"Wait a minute-", Porlyusica began before begin interrupted.

"I'm the one who is going to be training the boy, am I not? That is why you brought him to me, isn't it?", Roubaul inquires, "Then consider this his first lesson. Now please, Porlyusica, will you see to those two?"

Porlyusica could feel her blood pressure rising while her level of patience was falling. You know full well in the back of her mind that Roubaul is most likely the only person in the world who could possibly help Romeo but his training method left much to be desired.

"Too much if anything", Porlyusica thought as she examines the girl and her cat from afar, "The way she's cradling her side, I say she has a couple of broken or at least fractured ribs. If she is anything like that pink-haired moron, she'll be up and about in a week once I'm done with her. Her flying friend, on the other hand, needs my immediate attention", as she reluctantly moves to where Carla was laying, cradling the cat's head as she began to go to work on her while all the while watching the situation between Romeo, Fonaar, Roubaul, and the hunters unfold.

"Fonaar, calm down! Fonaar, take it easy, boy!", Romeo shouts as he tries his hardest to pacify the raging dragon as Fonaar continued to snap his powerful jaws while swinging his tail and claws at any hunters that got too close to his liking, all while shielding Romeo, "They're going to hurt you if you don't!"

Romeo then spots the gashes in Fonaar's left-wing, as well as the deep cut on his eye, along with the rest of his wounds, "He's hurt pretty badly. Did Wendy do all this?"

"Romeo, Romeo, dear boy", a voice calls out and both Romeo and Fonaar turn to see Roubaul moving past the hunters and toward the two of them, "I need you to listen to me closely now. You need to calm Fonaar down or else my hunters will have to take action."

Fonaar growls and bares his fangs while positioning himself in front of Romeo. By this time the blood from his wound had completely covered his eye and he was reduced to only seeing out the good one and he could feel his adrenaline starting to wear off despite the situation and therefore he started to feel the immense pain from his wounds, especially his torn wing. But he didn't have time to worry about his injuries, he had other matters to attend to.

"How? He doesn't want to listen to me!", Romeo points out and Roubaul simply shakes his head with a laugh.

"First thing you must do is heal his wounds, young Romeo. The pain caused by them is clouding his mind thus his decisions", Roubaul explains, "Just like you did before."

"I don't remember how I did that! I wasn't even awake when I did!", Romeo confess.

"Think about what you saw Romeo when it all happen. Who did you meet? Remember them and it will come back to you", Roubaul says, "You need only touch Fonaar and recall that moment."

Romeo turns his attention to Fonaar who was still snapping at the approaching hunters, briefly ignoring the boy for the moment.

"You need only touch Fonaar and recall that moment", the words echo in his head as he tries to remember the warm, peaceful, feeling he got when back in the forest near Porlyusica's place. The symbol on his chest started to glow green once more as he touches Fonaar's torso and he is enveloped in darkness as he feels his body collapse.

A/N: I would like to point out that this is not a Wendy-gets-the-crap-beat-out-of-her-story. I was just trying to showcase her durability along with the fighting prowess of Fonaar, also as a reality check to Wendy to help her get stronger. Will they get a rematch in the future? Maybe. Next chapter cominga out in few days.

Draconis Fundamentumis: According to D&D lore, this organ is the one that allows dragons to produce their breath attack.
