"Speaking"

On with the story

Four years have passed and Natsu was still in recovery as his magic container bubbles

Irene has been spending her free time by his side as she would keep gazing at him while having a sad look on herself

She touched the glass tube as she felt immense guilt for putting him in it in the first place

"was it a mistake to find Erza?" Irene muttered out before the door to the room was knocked as Juliet and Heine came in

"Irene-sama, Emperor Spriggan has called you" Heine spoke to her as she saw how Irene just kept gazing at Natsu

"he said it is important" Juliet said as Irene turned around and look to them

"tell him that I'll be a few minutes late" Irene said with a fake smile as Juliet and Heine already knew that it was a fake

"yes" Heine said as she and Juliet bowed to Irene before closing back the door

Irene then looked back to Natsu as she touched the glass

"I'm really sorry…..Natsu" Irene spoke as a tear falls down her eyes

She then turns around and walks towards the door as she opens it and was about to close it after she take a last look to Natsu

The door then closes as Natsu was alone again in the room as he recovers his strength

Suddenly

Crack!

a crack appeared on the glass tube Natsu was in as the Dragon Tattoo on Natsu's face suddenly spread to his side neck and then to his shoulders as his eyes opened

his eyes were pure black as his fangs grow and nails started to get longer and then horns grew out of Natsu's head

"Ze…..refff" Natsu called out as the crack on the glass tube started to get longer as it then spread around the whole glass tube before shattering

Natsu falls out of the glass tube as he falls to his knees

He coughs out blue fluid as he stood back up and wobbled a bit as he catches himself

"Zeref…..!" Natsu voiced out as flames ignited his whole body


Irene was making her way to the throne room and reached to the door with Juliet and Heine were waiting for her there

"sorry to keep you two waiting" Irene said as she waved her staff as the door opened

WHOOSH!

a figure came flying out as he crashed down

"what the!?" Heine and Juliet exclaimed as they saw that it was Neinhart who flew out of the room as the man had several burn marks on him as well as claw marks

ROAR!

A roar was heard from within the throne room as they get in to see Natsu wrecking the place as he sent anyone who tried to stop him, to kingdom come

"Natsu…!?" Irene muttered out as she saw how he easily blocked Dimaria's sword as he grabbed her neck and slams her down to the floor

"Natsu! Stop!" Irene screamed as she runs into the room with Juliet and Heine

"halt!" Invel stopped Irene as he tried to freeze Natsu for him to stop but failed as Natsu who got encased in ice shattered the ice he was in

"he has returned to his primal instincts as a demon from the books of Zeref" Invel said before creating an ice wall as Natsu breath out a crimson flame attack at them "he only knows one thing! Destruction"

Invel then encased himself in an armor made out of ice and tried to pin down Natsu

"Natsu…." Irene saw how he easily broke through Invel's armor as he pulled Invel out of his ice armor before punching his gut multiple time and then throw him away

"stop Natsu!" Irene shouted as Natsu set eyes on her and flames encased his claws

Natsu roared before dashing towards her with his claws pulled back and then pushed towards her as he intended to pierce her heart but was stopped as a magic circle appeared bellow him and then several purple chains fired out of the magic circle and wrapped around his body and limbs

Natsu started letting out an inhuman growls as he struggled in the chains to break free

Irene gasped as she saw how Natsu wanted to kill her

Her eyes then spotted Zeref who was struggling while keeping a hold on Natsu as his hand was raised up to the point that he was the one who activated the magic restraints

"it would seem that his primal instincts have awakened" August said as he saw how Natsu's eyes were pure black

"what shall we do, Emperor Spriggan?" Invel asked as he holds his broken arm

Zeref frowned as he thought that he had overwritten Natsu's instinct as a demon in his book, decades ago

"Natsu…" Irene voiced out as everyone looks to her as she approached Natsu "Natsu, it's me, Irene" She called out to him as she lowered her staff and slowly walked towards her "don't you remember me?"

Natsu roared as he tried to bite Irene and struggle in his chains as one chain cracked

"Natsu…." Irene called out to him again before she gasped in shock as the chain restraints break as Natsu pushed down Irene and was about to kill her but was stopped as her hand reached towards his cheek

"please remember, Natsu….remember who you really are" Irene spoke to him as Natsu was gritting his fangs as a tear fell down his right eye

"I…re…..neeee" Natsu hissed out as his grabbed his face as he stand up and started crashing around

Irene quickly got up and stopped Natsu who tried to kill himself as he was holding Dimaria's sword to his neck

She hugged him as Natsu's demon side was roaring as he clawed her back as the flames surround him

Irene hissed at the burning pain on her back but she didn't let go as Natsu kept clawing at her

Zeref had enough as he run towards Natsu and place his palm to his forehead

In an instant, the flames around Natsu and Irene was gone as both fell down


a few hours after the berserk rage of Natsu

Zeref place back Natsu in the recovery tube as he placed a seal that will stop Natsu from awakening his demon side

"what happens if the seal is lifted, Father?" August asked Zeref who looks to Natsu

"it is a fifty-fifty chance" Zeref replied to him "there's a possibility of him turning back to normal and the other is the possibility of him turning into his demon instincts"

"I should have never made him into this" Zeref said frowning as he touched the glass

"Irene-sama!" Zeref and August turned around and saw Irene walking in with the help of her staff as Heine and Juliet tried to stop her

"Natsu…" Irene hissed out as she had blood dripping from her back

"Irene-sama, your injuries!" Heine exclaimed as she gasped at the amount of blood Irene was losing

Zeref frowned to the woman as he snapped his fingers and cast a sleeping spell to Irene

the woman slowly loses conscious before nearly falling as August quickly catches her

"take her to the infirmary and get her wounds healed" Zeref told August as he nodded and uses a floating spell on Irene then he, Heine and Juliet bring her to the infirmary

Zeref sighs as he turns to look at Natsu

"get well soon, Natsu" Zeref said to his little brother before he walked out of the room and closed the door


that's a wrap!

Bye bye
