Hey I am back. Letting you know after Tuesday my updates will slow down due to me not having a computer to write on. But I will do my best to update. Also I will be working on my house, and doing work. So I will be getting my own computer to write with when I have the money. But enough about me. The poll will be open till Tuesday after that it is closed, so make sure to vote.
After a few days Natsu woke up in the cave and was unnerved waking up in an unfamiliar place. He looked over to see Igneel next to him keeping him warm while he was sleeping.
"Igneel wake up!" Natsu yelled.
"What is it Natsu can't you see I am sleeping here." Igneel said.
"I am wanting to train with my new power you gave me." Natsu said.
"Okay, this will be the hardest training you have experienced in your life." Igneel said.
Igneel and Natsu walked outside into the frozen wasteland that was Mt. Hakobe. When they got outside the entire landscape was covered in snow, a blizzard was blowing through making it almost impossible to see. The temprature was in the negatives.
"Okay, first I want you to try and use the new power you feel inside of you." Igneel said.
"Okay." Natsu said.
Natsu started to power up but something was different than normal, his fire was a deep crimson red instead of his normal orange flames. Natsu kept powering up, while that was happening the snow was rapidly melting away from where Natsu was standing. The blizzard seemingly disappeared from sight, but the fire was making a dome of heat that evaporated it as soon as it got to close.
"You're doing good keep it up." Igneel said.
Natsu continued to power up and you could see a tattoo of a dragon forming on his arm. The tattoo continued to become more completed as he powered up. But right before it was completed it stopped and disappeared. Natsu kneeled down and was panting from exhaustion, and he was sweating.
"I can't go any further." Natsu said.
"That is to be expected, no one gets to it the first try. But that is why you need to train. If you got it straight away it would not take 7 years for you to master it." Igneel said.
"Okay, then train me so I can use it." Natsu said.
"I was already planning on that." Igneel said.
Igneel started by having Natsu do a physical workout before having him meditate and train mentally. This training took up the rest of the day until when they slept. They continued this for weeks until Igneel had him try activating Fire Dragon King mode. This time Natsu made it further and almost had it but he did not make it. Natsu was upset that he almost had it but did not get there. Igneel picked up on this and decided to say something to cheer him up.
"It is okay Natsu, you have got closer in a shorter period of time than any other dragon slayer before you." Igneel said.
"I know but I feel like I should have got it by now." Natsu said.
"I understand, but you just need to work on it more and you will get there. But for now why don't you rest." Igneel said.
-7 years later
Natsu's training with Igneel has gone well, he is able to use Fire Dragon King mode. He is close to fully perfecting it. But no matter how far he gets there is always more to learn about it. Natsu was happy his training was complete.
"Natsu there is something I must tell you." Igneel said.
"What is it?" Natsu asked.
"For you to complete your training you must absorb all of my magic, which means I will become apart of you." Igneel said.
"What no, I can't do that. You're my father." Natsu said.
"I know it will be hare for you but you must do it. Acnologia is coming back soon. And you are the only one who can stop him. And don't worry I will still be alive, I will just be apart of you, and I can help you and give you advice inside of your head." Igneel said.
"Okay, but what will happen with all the dragon's aren't you the leader of the dragon's going up against Acnologia?" Natsu asked.
"I am but you will be taking that role and I can help you with the decisions that need made. And getting them to trust you." Igneel said.
"Okay, I will do it." Natsu said."
"Okay I am going to let you eat my flame of life and I will be apart of the flame and I will be absorbed into you." Igneel said.
Igneel cast a spell that made a flame that contained his essence , hence why it is called the flame of life. The flame was a dark crimson.
"Okay eat this and I will become apart of you." Igneel said.
"Okay." Natsu said.
Natsu started breathing in and the flame shot towards his mouth and turned into a stream. The fire entered Natsu's mouth and his body absorbed the flames and Igneel started to disappear and turn into the flames. When the whole process was complete Igneel was gone and it was just Natsu on the mountain.
"Okay, I guess it is time to, go back and see what I have missed while I was training." Natsu said to himself
'That is not a bad idea but where will you go?' a voice said in Natsu's head.
"Who's there?" Natsu said.
'It is me Igneel.' Igneel said.
"Oh yeah, you are in my head now." Natsu said.
'Yeah, so where are you going?' Igneel asked.
"I was planning on Mongolia since it is the closest. And I could stop by and visit Fairy Tail, I know they betrayed me but I want to see how they are doing." Natsu said.
'That makes sense but you have to be careful of them you don't know what they will try to do to you.' Igneel said.
"Thanks, I think it is time to go." Natsu said.
Natsu started walking down the mountain after 7 years, heading back to where he used to call home. He did not know what they would do to him, or say.
-Few hours later
Natsu made it down the mountain, and went to a carriage rental place to head back to Mongolia. When Natsu was riding in the carriage apparently he no longer has motion sickness, he did not understand why this was but it was a welcome surprise. When the made it back to Mongolia Natsu stopped by a store and bought a cloak so the Guild did not know who he was. While he was walking through town he heard talk about the Grand Magic Games. And they wondered if Fairy Tail was going to participate this year, apparently they are not as strong as the used to be.
"Hey do you know where the Fairy Tail Guild is?" Natsu asked a stranger.
"Yeah just continue down this road and you will be there." The man said.
"Thanks." Natsu said.
Natsu continued down the road to the Guild hall happy to see it had not changed over the years, but he was sad when he remembered what they did to him. Natsu walked up to the front doors and knocked something he had never done before.
"Who's there?" Someone asked.
"An old friend." Natsu said.
"Ah come in." Another person said.
Natsu opened the door to see a Guild brawl in the center, he saw Mira, and levy at the door seeing who it was.
"Ah Mira, Levy it has been a while." Natsu said.
"Who are you and how do you know us?" Mira asked.
"You don't remember me?" Natsu asked.
"Well yeah." Levy said.
"Well maybe this will help." Natsu said.
He then took off his cloak and the first recognizable feature was his pink hair. Everyone stopped and looked and saw a face they had not seen in years.
"Natsu what are you doing here?" Mira asked.
