Chapter 6

After hearing Igneel's little talk, the Laxus and the Thunder knew that they truly had to be serious otherwise this fight might be their last.

Igneel suddenly vanished and reappeared in front of Bickslow and back fisted him across the arena. He then turned to see that Freed, who had his blade drawn, was already striking down towards his head. Igneel dodged the blade in time to see the ground get sliced from where he stood. Not giving him any time to recover, Evergreen executed her spell FairyBomb: Gremlin, which shot dust toward Igneel and exploded on contact. Laxus finally started helping out by using his "Lightning Blasts" after Evergreen's move. Igneel crossed his arms in front of him and blocked the attack.

In the meantime, Freed was quickly forming runes around the arena to help slow down Igneel and also checking on Bickslow. Bickslow quickly recovered from the back fist and had his 'babies' (A/N: Or dolls or whatever you would like to call those things) attack Igneel with another "Line Formation" but with more power.

After getting hit several more times, he decided to go on the offense. He started dodging more of Freed's attacks until he found an opening. After seeing one, he went in and ducked under one of Freed's swipes and landed a powerful palm strike at his sternum. After that he grabbed Freed's head and slammed him to the ground causing a small crater and web of cracks under him; instant knockout and he did it all in less than two seconds. The others were in awe and fear of what this guy could do.

Igneel gave Laxus a toothy grin and motioned him to come at him. Laxus got enraged because he knew that Igneel was toying with them.

"That's it, if want you us to go all out, THEN YOU GOT IT!" bellowed Laxus before entering his dragon slayer mode. His body bulked up tremendously, which caused his shirt to rip apart. His forearms were covered in scales. His whole body was surrounded by lightning. He then charged at Igneel at incredible speed and threw dozens of punches per second, which were all blocked by Igneel effortlessly. After a few more throws Laxus went into his lightning form gained some distance above Igneel. Evergreen and Bickslow quickly got to the edge of the arena to avoid being hit by Laxus most powerful move, "Roaring Thunder."

The spectators were flabbergasted by the power that spell held. The entire arena was in ruins. Dust and debris was flying everywhere. There scorch marks all over the crater. The spot from where Igneel is was now a crater the size of the guild. Laxus was panting from his spell. The spell used up a huge amount of his magic. He knew that he only has enough magic to perform that move once more. The entire crowd waited until the smoke and dust cleared up to see what happened to Natsu's father.

Igneel jumped out of the crater with a stoic face. Everyone took a good look at Igneel and was amazed that he had very little burns and scrapes.

Igneel looked at his attire and found it basically burnt and torn to shreds so he took off all his clothing, only leaving his partly shredded pants on. All of the women were sporting heavy blushes (including ones that are married and in relationships) and most of the guys looked down in shame. Igneel's build is one that most guys would kill for. It turns out he's just as muscular as Laxus or Gildarts but he's defined and toned to the very core. He had a dragon tattoo from his left hip which goes up to his left pectoral. The dragon looked a lot like him in his dragon form but in the style of a tribal tattoo. Igneel dusted himself off and said with a mischief smile,

"I'm impressed with that spell and since you're serious now, then I should be serious as well. Get ready." Igneel then closed his eyes and stood there breathing deeply. Laxus decided to attack Laxus with quick attack to have an advantage. Laxus vanished in a flash of lightning and reappeared behind Igneel with a devastating "Lightning Dragon Breakdown Fist." Igneel opened his eyes and caught Laxus' arm and slammed him into the ground a good ten times; leaving craters from each hit. When he realized that Laxus became unconscious, he tossed to him to the side with a disappointed sigh and turned to find Bickslow glaring at him.

"You have just made the biggest mistake of your life! Get ready my babies!" Bickslow quickly took off his helmet and looked at Igneel using his "Figure Eyes" to control his body. Igneel felt the possession magic coursing through his body paralyzing him.

"Evergreen, do it now!"

"Got it!" She quickly got in front of Igneel and began to use her "Stone Eyes". She smirked and said,

"Sorry old lizard but you lo-" She got cut off from the look that Igneel was giving her. His obsidian colored eyes were gone and replaced with golden eyes that glowed with tremendous power. These wer his true eyes, the eyes of a dragon and they were bearing into her very soul as if it was tearing it out of her body. She never felt so much power and fear in her life before now. She quickly fainted from the intense glare.

Bickslow and the rest of the crowd were dumbstruck at what they saw. Bickslow decided to use his 'babies' to defeat him while Igneel was still paralyzed. As his 'babies' were getting were to execute "Baryon Formation", Igneel yelled, no, more like roared.

This wasn't anything Bickslow ever heard before. It felt like all the thunder in the world was coming together in this one massive, continuous roar. He tried to cover his ears, but it was ineffective. He felt the powerful sound waves coming from Igneel's mouth. The roar was so loud and intense that the ground cracked beneath them. It was eventually too much for Bickslow as he blacked out from the roar; with blood coming out of his ears. Igneel felt the possession magic leaving him and stood up stretching his limbs in a lazy manner.

Igneel chuckled out, "So, am I the winner then?"

He turned to find all the citizens and most of the guild passed out from that roar; the only ones that stayed conscious were the dragon slayers, Gildarts, and the other two dragons.

"I over did it, didn't I?" They all nodded and Igneel asked again,

"We should finish the fights later, don't we?" Again they all nodded.

~Time Skip~

(Scene: East Magnolia in the woods)

It took several hours for the remaining that were still conscious to take the mages to their homes and the citizens were taken to the nearest hotels to stay for the night, courtesy of Fairy Tail. The Thunder Tribe and Laxus were sent to the infirmary. Igneel and Natsu couldn't stop laughing when they found out that Laxus sucks his thumb in his sleep until Grandine whacked them to the ground for acting like idiots. The dragons and their kids, plus Gildarts, hunted a bit and made a fire and spent the rest of the day talking and telling their recent adventures and their abilities.

By the time it was midnight, the dragons decided to take leave. Gildarts asked,

"So where are you guys going to sleep?"

Metalicana looked at him before smiling, "Gee-hee, we sleep in the wild. Just because we can be human doesn't mean we sleep in houses or hotels." Grandine nodded before turning to Wendy and said,

"Come on little one, time for us to go, time for us to go find a plain." Wendy looked confused.

When Grandine and the others were changing back into dragons, Gildarts began to feel a little bit uneasy. Ever since he had his encounter with Acnologia, he gained this fear of dragons. It didn't bother him with these dragons in the beginning because they looked human; that is until now. Grandine was one that rose to seventy feet with her angel-like wings spreading out. She see had more feathers than scales and seemed to be slimmer than most dragons though she's more powerful than the average dragon. She is the queen of the sky dragons after all. Igneel and Metalicana were of similar height which was ninety feet and their length was one hundred forty. Metalicana had scales of iron and steel that looks a lot like dragon armor and his wings were blade like. Igneel had crimson scales with the numerous scars that decorate his body from his previous battles. His bat-like dragon wings stretched out while he let out low growl that resembled thunder in the distance.

Grandine bent down to grab Wendy by the collar of her dress with her jaw and carried her, sort of like how a mother lion carries her cub. Wendy started to squeal and blush from the embarrassment. Gajeel laughed at her until Metalicana wrapped him with his tail,

"You're coming with me, you and I need to talk and you need to get rid of that vile look in your eyes right now!" Gajeel and Metalicana were bickering as they left.

Igneel picked Natsu up the same way Grandine did and said, "Let's go Natsu."

"WHAT?! No way! Not until we fight you old lizard!"

"You dare call me a lizard?! Show some respect you pink haired brat!"

"It's SALMON and you know it!"

Gildarts chuckled at how the dragons and their kids talk to each other and felt happy for them to be reunited, though he still feels uneasy around the dragons but he trusts them. Though right now he wants to see how his precious little daughter is doing (Cana) so he destroyed the fire with his crash magic and happily ran toward her house.

"Don't worry baby, Daddy's on his way!"

(With Natsu and Igneel)

Igneel was traveling through the forest looking for a good place to rest for the night. His steps created mini earthquakes that scared any dangerous creatures that were lurking nearby. Natsu finally stopped fighting and stayed unusually quiet which got Igneel concerned. Igneel eventually found a good spot in the forest that was clear and had soft grass. He got himself comfortable and placed Natsu in front of him. Igneel looked down at Natsu and ask,

"Why are you so quiet? Is there something bothering you?" Natsu looked up at Igneel and responded,

"What you said to Laxus was true, isn't it?"

"What was it that I said?"

"About Laxus and the others possibly dying in that fight and showing him no mercy and you're true strength." Igneel stared at his son for a moment before he burst out laughing.

"Hey what's so funny about that?!"

"I wasn't serious about that. If I was, I would've used my magic and I wouldn't have held back my strength." Natsu was confused and shocked after hearing that. Igneel notices his confusion and began explaining,

"Okay, remember the dragons from that came from the past", Natsu nodded. He still remembered how powerful the dragons were and none the mages, even the dragons slayers, were able to severely damage them let alone kill them. That truly hurt his pride and he hates it whenever he gets reminded about it. Igneel continued,

"Then you know how powerful a dragon is, but you've never seen a dragon at their peak of power." This got Natsu's attention and listened more intensively.

"Dragons are powerful when they're fighting with a purpose or when they have very powerful emotions like us fire dragons. The dragons you faced were manipulated or brainwashed, so they were in a zombie like state so their strength wasn't as powerful as it would have been if they had their free will. It is the same thing when dragons are in human forms. Our powers and strength gets cut down by one third and we can be damaged by any kind of magic; though it takes a great amount of power to hurt us."

Natsu was shocked at what Igneel said. Igneel won his fight with ease and he was basically handicapped. Shouldn't come as a surprise though; He remembered when a wyvern came into the territory; Igneel simply bit its arm and leg off and ate it in five seconds flat. Now that he thought about it he never saw Igneel fight serious at all when he was little. He wondered how he would be like if he truly fought. Just how powerful can he be?

"I have other news for you Natsu." Natsu looked at Igneel once more. "Since we left in the middle of your training when you were little, we will continue where we left off until you truly master the art of Dragon Slayer Magic." Natsu's eyes widen for a second before jumping towards nose and hugged him.

"Fuck yeah! Now I can be even stronger and kick some ass! I'll be starting with Laxus and Erza!"

"Hey! Get off me and it's time to sleep!"

"Time to sleep my ass! I'm all fired up for trai-argh!" Natsu was interrupted from Igneel slamming his tail on him and violently knocked him out. Hearing nothing but peace and silence Igneel smiled and brought his son's limp body close to him and whispered out,

"Good night son…"

A/N: Hey guys, sorry about the chapter being a little short but I hope it wasn't too bad. I'll do a bit of training stuff in the next chapter and some other stuff. I don't think I'll go into the Tartarus Arc yet. Maybe, maybe not, I'm also putting in something in for poor Natsu in the next chapter.

Flaredragon out!
