"Speaking"

"thinking"

On with the story

Days to days, and weeks to weeks

Natsu kept his promise as he comes in to aid Erza in her time of needs


within Alvarez, Natsu and Irene were in the throne room, having a meeting with the Spriggan 12 as they were discussing in how to handle the kingdom

"and we have recent requests for more supplies in the western part of the kingdom" Invel said as he reads out a paper in his hand

"haaaaa, send them what they want" Natsu said rubbing his forehead in stress from doing so many paperwork

"as you wish" Invel replied with a bow

"haaaa, I'm going to get insomnia one of these days" Natsu said cracking his necks as many bone pops sound were heard

"hang in there" Irene said with a giggle

"moving on to the next assignment" Invel said as he had a giant stack of paperwork in hand. The man stacked it on Natsu's table as his jaws dropped to the amount of papers, he sees with his eyes "please read one by one and sign with ease, END-sama"

Natsu banged his head as the one thing that can kill him other than Acnologia, is paperwork

"haaa, give me a pen" Natsu said as August passed a quill pen to him

Natsu reached for the pen and thanked August before taking the pen, only to drop it

"Uncle?" August looks confused as Natsu was gripping his chest hard and looks to be in pain

"Natsu?" Irene looks to him as Natsu stands up and looks to be angered

"this….!" Natsu growls as he smashed his hand to the table and destroyed it and made the giant stack of paper fly around "he appeared!"

Natsu summoned his cloak and a mask as he snaps his fingers to summon a portal

"August, govern the kingdom while I'm gone!" Natsu told his nephew as he dashed into the portal and disappeared

"Uncle!?" August exclaimed in surprised


a lone island in the middle of the ocean, it is the sacred island of Fairy Tail, called Tenroujima

it was used as a place for mages of Fairy Tail to strive and become S-Class mages

but due to an invading force from a dark guild called Grimoire Heart, Fairy Tail went to war with them and came out victorious

Fairy Tail was about to leave the island to get back home but was stopped when a dark black dragon appeared and attack them

"we can't win" Wendy Marvel, Fairy Tail's Sky Dragon Slayer cried out as she looks at the dark black dragon

"even our combined attack could even deal a scratch" Gray Fullbuster, Ice Make Wizard, said as he carried another Fairy Tail member, Juvia Lockster the Water Mage

The dark black dragon flew up and inhales a deep breath as its mouth started to glow and magic started to gather up in it

"a breath's attack!?" Gajeel Redfox, the Iron Dragon Slayer, exclaimed as everyone on the island stood in shock

"we're doom" Cana Alberon said as she was embraced by her father, Crash Mage, Gildarts Clive

They all look in horror to the incoming death that will rain upon them

Suddenly the black dragon stopped its attack as the stored up energy disappeared

"it….stopped?" Erza exclaimed in shock as the dark dragon landed down and was glaring while growling at everyone but it looks to be only growling at Erza

"w-w-why is it….. growling at Erza?" Lucy Heartifilia said in tears

Everyone just stood in confusion as to why it was growling at Erza

Suddenly a red crimson glow appeared from Erza as she was also surprised by it

A red orb flied out of Erza's body and revealed itself to everyone

The orb spins around before it exploded in flames and revealed a figure flying towards the black Dragon

"Oraaaa!" Someone shouted out as the black dragon was sent crashing back from a crimson flaming punch to the jaw

CRASH!

The black dragon crashed down to the ground as it then got up and growls at Natsu who had appeared

"S-S-Salamander!?" Lucy and Gray exclaimed in surprised

Natsu glares at the black Dragon as flames were ignited from both of his hands

"Get out of the island! Now!" Natsu shouted at them before dashing towards Acnologia and got into a brawl with the giant reptile "I will deal with Acnologia!"

Natsu created a giant crimson flaming sphere above him as he threw it at Acnologia and the black dragon crashes down to the ground once again

Erza and the rest looks at him and was shocked to see the monster that they tried to defeat was easily damaged by Natsu

"I told you to get out of here!" Natsu shouted at them as his eyes glowed golden and caused Erza and her friends to be teleported away and onto a ship

Natsu nodded before he then turned his attention to his opponent who was growling at him as Acnologia's eyes glowed red

"to think that I would encounter you once again" a deep and dark voice spoke from Acnologia as it bares its fangs at Natsu "my deep revenge and hatred for you still burns like lava"

Natsu scoffs as he cracks his knuckles and his body glowed

Red and dark scales appeared on Natsu's skin and wings sprouted out of Natsu's back as well as a tail "The feelings Mutual"

Natsu then roared as Acnologia responded the same

The ancient foes dashed towards each other before a powerful explosion, rang out


Fairy Tail were riding their ship away from the chaos, they just watch as the battle between human and Dragon rages on

"he's! he's actually battling that monster!" Gray exclaimed as he saw how Natsu's attack dealt major damage upon Acnologia

Erza looks to Natsu as the man roared at Acnologia who responded with its own roar


Day turns to night as Natsu's and Acnologia's battle still rages on

The battlefield was now a barren wasteland as the ancient foes were in a stand-off with each other

Natsu's clothes were in shreds as he also had wounds that were beyond words

"-huff- -huff- - huff- -huff- I still can!" Natsu shouted as he got up while his left eye was bleeding badly

Acnologia was in the same situation as he was, the Black Dragon's left arm was gone

"I shall keep my word those centuries ago" Acnologia inhaled a lot of air as he was charging a breath attack

Natsu took a deep breath as his chest expanded

Both let out a breath that collided with each other in resulting a devastating exploding shock wave that could be seen from a hundred miles away

That day, light burst through the heaven as the site of the battle were beyond words to describe

A giant crater that burns with Crimson flames as not even the sea water could put them out

The two opponents stood there as Acnologia was in his human form

Both sides were immobile as they had used up all of their magic in their battle

"I -grunt- will -huff- end it now!" Natsu tried to move but failed as he falls to the ground and coughs blood "damnit!"

Natsu clenches the dirt as he looks up to see Acnologia just standing there

"this…" Acnologia spoke before falling to his knees "maybe the second time we went into a stalemate"

Acnologia stands on his feet while stumbling a bit "we shall end this once the Dragon Kings Festival begins once again"

Acnologia laughs as he transforms into his dragon form and flies away and leaves Natsu there

"again?!" Natsu gritted his teeth as he punches the ground in anger "damn….it"

He then falls down to the ground and fell unconscious

Natsu's world slowly turned dark after he saw someone rushing to him


That's a wrap!

Bye bye
