"How did the job go guys?, I'm guessing by your smiling faces that it went well" said Mira Jane with her signature smile. "Nashi completed her first job!" exclaimed Natsu thrilled putting his hand on top of Nashi's shoulders and squeezing them making her smile a great big smile. "Thanks daddy" she thanked warmly. "That's wonderful,congratulations Nashi" said Mira cheerfully. "Thanks Mira, ummm, is it okay..if i have some cake?" she eyed Natsu and Lucy who brightly both said "go ahead" She jumped a little jump as she ran to Mira's bar and jumped into one of the seats as Mira came back with a piece of cake. "EEK" Nashi screamed happily as she grabbed her fork and dived right in. "Woah slow down" laughed Lucy seeing her inhale the cake. "Jeeze, just like your father" she commented looking back at Natsu. "What?" he said looking back at her. Lucy smiled and shook her head as Gray chuckled. "How did she do Erza?" asked Makarov who had come walking up. "Do we have another working mage coming?" Natsu and Lucy both gave him a look that told him to drop it.
Catching what they were saying with their eyes, Erza cleared her throat and said "she did great master but she's not at that level just yet. Natsu had to help her finish up because of the amount of fire power it took but with some more time, I think she will be able to start taking jobs like a real Fairy Tail mage" She smirked looking at the Dragneel parents who gave her a warm look saying they were happy with her answer. "Oh I'm sure before we know it, we'll have another dragon slayer and raising hell just like her father. "teased Makarov. "You mean I can wreck stuff like daddy"Nashi said so innocently making Lucy bust out laughing while Makarov shook his head and closed his eyes. "Please dear Mavis, don't let her be as bad as Natsu" " I resent that statement" said Natsu annoyed. " Really flame brain, Mr. let's wreck everything in sight and give Fairy Tail a headache" "You got something to say princess" snapped Natsu walking up to Gray.
"Hmm, it's true though, before I joined Fairy Tail, I remember reading something about how Fairy Tail was the cause of another major misfortune and destruction of a town" peeped Lucy. Natsu gave her a look of humiliation and betrayal. "Lu..Lucy!" "What?, how was I supposed to know it was you" she said with some humor. " If someone told me at the time the most destructive wizard in Fairy Tail and the cause of so much paperwork for Gramps was going to be my soulmate and the father to my child, I would have laughed my butt off" "Oh" said Natsu suddenly getting a sad look on his face. Lucy rushed over seeing his face. She grabbed it in her hands and put her forehead against his and compassionately said "If it wasn't for you, I would have been taken to who knows where by that Fairy Tail wannabe. It was all because of who you are that I got to live my dream" "You sure you don't regret anything?" Natsu asked quietly with some sadness still in his voice as he rubbed the part of Lucy's back where the imprint of his hand was burnt into her back. "No baby, I don't regret a single thing, I would do everything all over again. The pain, the hurt, all of it..even Lilyanna. You saved me from a life of pain and sadness, helped me mend my relationship with my father before he passed away. Natsu , you helped me become who I am today. You , you made me fall in love with you and realize you were the one I'm meant to spend my life with and now we have beautiful little girl. No Natsu, I don't regret anything" She pressed her lips against his as he wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her close to him. They kissed for a whole minute as they pulled apart as she wrapped her hands around his neck and rest her head on his shoulder.
"It's true though, hell If it wasn't for Lucy, I wouldn't have met Juvia" said Gray as he held Juvia's hand who was blushing as she gave a soft nod to Natsu and Lucy as Erza stepped up and said "yes, if it wasn't for you Lucy, I wouldn't have been as caring towards others in the past. Thank you Lucy, for not only did you manage to tame this one" her eyes glancing at Natsu as she continued " but you gave a new light to Fairy Tail." Lucy's face was bright red with embarrassment as she pulled away from Natsu and put her hands to her cheeks. Natsu laughed and pulled her hands away and said softly. ( the song Kanashiki Kato from FT soundtrack Vol.1 for this whole scene) "It's true Luce, you did a lot when you came here. You helped us all come together when Laxus went berserk. You helped me move from Lisanna, you gave me a reason to tone down my destruction. Before I knew it, you were everything to me. I didn't want there ever to be a day without you beside me." Lucy's eyes filled with tears. "Through all the pain, the chaos, Lucy, you smiled through it all and even when you weren't smiling, there was still no doubt you were there for everyone, for me. You never let me give up , not once. Bringing you to Fairy Tail was the best decision I've ever made in my entire life. You made me fall in love with you too Luce. My best friend. My partner, mother to our child...my soulmate" Lucy was at her knees crying as tears dripped to the floor as Natsu lovingly held his hand out as she looked up at his hand and back at him. As she took it and stood up,he placed one arm around her waist hugging her as she laid her head against his shoulder while everyone warmly smiled at them. (end song)
" Well did everyone expect a heartfelt moment because I am sweating" complained Happy lightly as he pulled at his pack making Lucy and Natsu giggle. "Sorry Happy, I wasn't trying to heat the place up with emotions" Lucy apologized. "Oh , don't worry Lucy, I swear I was only kidding" assured Happy. Natsu tangled his hand between Lucy's fingers and kissed her hand making her cheeks pink. "Well, ahem, these two show why bonds are important whether it be as life partners or teammates, always keep these bonds alive and close to your heart. Natsu,Lucy great job to the both of you for finding each other" said Makarov as Lucy and Natsu looked at each other blushing. Next thing they knew they were hit by something cold. "Hey!" went Natsu and Lucy as they looked and saw Grat with Nashi standing behind his leg giggling. "What did you do?" asked Natsu. "Ha, this munchkin here thought you two could use the cool off haha" laughed Gray as Nashi grinned behind him."Well you little traitor" teased Natsu as he went after her making her scream and run the other direction while the guild with Lucy and Happy were rolling laughing. "Daddy, I was only playing!" she yelled as Natsu kept coming. "Oh I know but you should know at this point, anything having to do with mr. Icicle over there means payback. Heehee" "Aww come on daddy" she begged but Natsu grinned and kept going. "Nope" he said plainly. Nashi saw Lucy and tried to make a dive for her but not before Natsu caught her mid jump. "Ha, gotcha!" said Natsu gleefully as Nashi wriggled in his arms trying to get free for she knew what was coming.
He laid her on the floor as he still had an arm holding her down as he raised an arm and wiggled his fingers. "Nooo dadddy, nooo" Natsu smiled a wicked grin on his face as he said "nope you brought this on yourself getting with your uncle and soaking your mom and I" Nashi's expression turned to a nervous one as Natsu brought his hand down as she screamed "NOOOOOOOOO, HAHAHAHAHA" He was tickling her everywhere. "ha, ha. ha this what you get little dragon" "ha, da..daddy. Imm, sssorry, hahahaha" she through laughs as Natsu turned his head and eyed Lucy who began to walk forward with a smile as Nashi saw her walking and standing over her. "Mommy, save me!" she pleaded as Lucy's soft smile turned into a wicked grin like Natsu's as she joined in tickling her. "NOOOOOOOOOOHAHAH" Nashi was tormented by her parents revenge tickling as everyone in the guild was full of laughter including Erza and Makarov. They finally stopped tickling her when they saw her getting blue in the face. "Here Nashi" said Happy handing her a cup of water. "Thanks Happy." she thanked as she was sweating from being tickled so much. Natsu was sitting on a bench with Lucy sitting in his lap with her arms around his neck and her legs across him. " Hope you learned your lesson Iggy, playing a trick with your uncle Gray will earn you a punishment of tickles..or whatever we think of at that moment" Natsu told her as Nashi stuck her tongue out at them.
