Demon Claw
The sun was starting to make its climb in the early hours of the morning. Rays of sunlight creeping against the ground through the quite town. Seeping into the open window of a certain hotel room and onto the face of a peacefully sleeping silver haired beauty.
Mira groaned slightly as she felt the sunlight beat down on her face. She turned to her side to attempt to cuddle up next to her new personal heater, however she only felt the cold side of the bed. Her eyes slowly opened as she sat up in "Natsu?" she called into the room. 'It wasn't just a dream was it?' Mira asked herself. She reached down and pulled the covers closer around her curvaceous figure. Her face was replaced with a small frown as she signed and took a deep breath. Her eyes opened up again as she took a sniff of the air. She could smell the sweet smell of bacon and eggs cooking. She then strained her ears and could hear the bacon sizzle as well as movement in the kitchen that was just around the corner from the bed. "Natsu?" she called again a little louder than the first time.
"Yo?" was the reply from the kitchen. Natsu stuck his head around the corner so he could see Mira. "Something wrong Mira?" he asked.
"I was just wondering where you were." She admitted with a light blush on her cheeks. "I just woke up and the bed was cold and you were missing." She adverted her gaze from his.
Natsu only chuckled at her "We have a job today Mira, I can warm up the bed for you tonight if it's still cold." He said which cause Mira to blush even more and pull the covers even closer around her.
"S-s-s-so last night wasn't just a dream?" she asked shyly.
Natsu just raised an eyebrow "No. Why do you usually dream about me like that?" he asked with a smirk.
"N-n-n-no!" Mira exclaimed as her blush grew more, causing Natsu to laugh.
"Well hurry up out of bed, I have breakfast ready for you." Natsu said as his head retreated back behind the wall.
Mira sat in bed for a few more seconds fighting against her blush before finally sliding out of the covers and quickly sliding on some black and red underwear as well as her black crop top and shorts. After she put her hair into its typical fashion she made her way into the kitchen. As she stepped into the kitchen her senses were assaulted by the smell of food, her eyes went wide as she saw wide array of beautifully cooked food that was set out in front of her. "You cooked all this yourself?" she asked in amazement.
"Of course I did." Natsu replied as he walked from the refrigerator with some orange juice in his hand. "I figured you would need as much strength as you could get especially after last night." He said causally as he walked behind her and placed a kiss on her cheek before sitting across from her.
Mira's face instantly lit up again as she fought to fight the blush "There is no way I'll ever be able to get use to this new Natsu." She said to herself which caused Natsu to laugh.
"Well you can worry about that later, we need to eat quickly so we can meet up with Millianna and Kagura in 2 hours." Natsu said as he started to dig into the mountain of food before him.
'At least one thing about Natsu hasn't changed.' Mira smiled to herself as she watched Natsu destroy what was a beautiful display of food.
/two hours later at the edge of town/
Natsu and Mira were walking along the road to the edge of town in a comfortable silence when the saw Kagura and Millianna waiting as the point where the road meet the woods. "Good morning Natsu-san!" Millianna called as they approached the two female mages.
'Natsu-san? Who does that cat women think she is for calling MY Natsu that!' Mira thought as she narrowed her eyes towards the cat women who had her eyes locked onto Natsu. Before Mira could processes another thought however a sword crashed down in front of her cases her to scream and jump back behind Natsu. Kagura had her eyes narrowed at the silver haired women and was releasing her own dark aura. "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?" exclaimed Mira as she held on to Natsu's shoulder? Kagura simply eyed Mira's hands and turned to the side replacing her sword to her hip.
Natsu looked at the three women in mild amusement "Well if the pleasantries are over with shall we find this dark guild?"
Kagura looked into Natsu's eyes for a second and remembered all the things Erza wrote in that letter. She blushed slightly before quickly looking away "Yes, we have a mission to do." Millianna looked at the all three with a confused look on her face.
"Uhh did I miss something?" she asked shyly.
Natsu turned his gaze to Millianna, "Not that I am aware of." Millianna looked into his orange eyes for only a second before she forced herself to look away from the powerful gaze. "Well let's go beat up these Dark guild losers." Natsu said as he punched his palm causing a small flare of fire in front of him. Natsu took a quick sniff of the air and started toward to forest. Mira walked on his right while casting glances at the Kagura to Natsu's left. Kagura was on Natsu's left and boring holes into Mira's soul with her eyes. Millianna simply followed the three looking between Kagura and Mira with a puzzled look.
After a few very tension filled miles, thanks to Mira and Kagura, the four mages found themselves at the beginning of a clearing deep inside the woods. In the middles of the woods was a large building with the sounds of screams, laughter, and breaking glass emitting from it
"That looks like our guild." Millianna stated.
"They have a lot of powerful members so we should really consider a game plan for how we should take them down. Ten S class mages and one SS class mage will be quite a load for only us four." Mira said as she turned away from the guild hall to look at the other.
"Our best bet would be to lure some of the weaker ones out into the open to get them out of the way and then concentrate all of our power on the master." Kagura added as she drew a small map of the guild and surrounding area in the dirt. "We can make a commotion in this clearing nearby, that should make some of their weaker members curious and they would come to check it out. After defeating them we will let on or two return to get some of their S class mages. Only one or two should come out at a time since it will only seem like a small problem. Then after we have dealt with half of their power we should be able to take the guild hall by storm."
"I can cause the commotion in the clearing and when we take hall I can probably deal with the majority of the lesser wizards while you two work focus on the more powerful ones." Millianna stated.
"And when we attack I can easily destroy half the guild with my Soul Extinction" Mira added with a sweet smile.
"Exactly and as for you Natsu, you said you have gotten quite powerful and I watched you fight a dragon before so we will leave the Master to you." Kagura said "Is that alright with you?"
…
"Natsu is that-WHERE IS NATSU?" Mira yelled as she looked to where Natsu was sitting and only seeing a blank spot.
"He is still as rash as ever" Kagura stated as her brows furrowed. "Where did he ge-"
"OI ARE YOU PUSSIES THAT DARK GUILD DEMON CLAW? COME OUT SO I CAN BEAT YOUR ASS!" cam a familiar voice from the direction of the dark guild.
All there girl's eyes widened before the jumped out of the cover they were in to see Natsu in front of the guild door. "THIS ISN"T PART OF THE PLAN!" the three yelled in unison.
The doors of the guild suddenly burst open as all the members of the dark guild poured out and surrounded the four mages. A middle aged man walked out form the circle and stood before the four. He had brown hair with grey lines through it. He was roughly six foot in height and muscular. He wore a simple armor with a cloak and a long sword was strapped to his back. "So you're the new crop of light guild members that the little shit form town sent." The man spit to his side. "You are all brave to come here and fight me and my crew." He laughed which was mimicked by the rest of his crew. "I'm the master of this guild, I used to be a SS class wizard so be prepared to di-"unfortunately the guild masters evil threatening was cut short due to a sudden flaming foot falling down onto his head driving his face into the ground which quickly turned into a small crater.
"It's really annoying when all you guys do is talk and talk and talk during a fight." Natsu sighed as he pulled his foot out of the hole in the ground.
All the mages present looked at Natsu with bulging eyes and open mouths. A thin pink hared women with a katana was the first to compose herself. "HOW DARE YOU HIT THE MASTER WHEN HE ISNT PREPARED! PREPARE TO DIE!" she yelled as a few of her fellow guild mates drew their weapons and jumped to Natsu.
Natsu simply looked at the oncoming swords before whispering "Flame Equip." he was instantly engulfed with fire which died as quickly as it came, but this time it revealed Natsu clad in a Crimson red armor that covered all of his body except left most of his face exposed. The attacked didn't seemed fazed by this as they though he simply reequipped so the swung their blades down. Natsu raised us his own sword and blocked the attack with ease. His attackers looked in shock as Natsu quickly pushed their attack back and slashed his own sword at them cutting of the arms of two members and leaving a deep gash along a thirds chest. Natsu the leveled his sword to the women.
"I have no problem showing you my skills but only ever draw the sword if you are prepared to lay your life down onto it." Natsu said as his eyes flickered from red to orange like dancing flames. The pink haired women put on a face of disgust before charging Natsu.
To everyone watching it seemed like Natsu simply lunged past the pink haired women. It wasn't until the women arms fell did they realize that Natsu had actually swung. The women dropped to her knees a look of pure shock across her face as the top half of her body then collapsed, separated from her lower half. "Unless you wish to share her fate lay down your weapons." Natsu commanded as he looked around at the dark guild members. "I have been in more wars then you have been days alive. If you fight me your life is not guaranteed." Natsu said darkly.
The majority of the guild members were starting to shake as they looked to their dead member and probably dead guild leader. Mira looked to Natsu with huge eyes as she saw the boy, no man, she has known for so long take the life of a women with so little care. Millianna also stood in as much shock, more amazed at how Natsu dealt with two probably very powerful mages in such a short time. Kagura simply looked at Natsu with Heart shaped eyes as she watch the beauty of his swordsmanship. 'His ability is so amazing. Natsu is so amazing.' Kagura thought as she started in a dreamy trance at the armor clad Natsu.
"How dare you treat us like that and kill one of us!" one of the members said as he looked to his left and right "There are only four of them they can't take all of us! Get them!"
The remaining member's steeled themselves as their moral was boosted and yelled as they charged forward. Natsu looked back to his fellow mages "Do your best and try not to get hurt, I can't have such pretty girls being hurt on my watch." Natsu said with a smirk causing Mira, and Millianna to blush and getting an "AYE NATSU-SAMA" from Kagura. The three women then took their stances before changing into the fray.
"Take over SATAN SOUL!" yelled Mira as she turned into her Satan soul. "Soul extinction! "She yelled as she blasted a large amount of enemy guild mates away along with half of their guild.
"Kitten Blast" yelled Millianna as several strands of rope shot out of her magic circle and started to bind several enemy mages together at once taking their ability to fight back.
Kagura quickly dashed to Natsu's side and drew out her sword still encased in its sheath "It would be an honor to fight with my blade beside yours Natsu-sama." She said with a serious and respectful tone. Natsu only smiled at her "It would be my honor Kagura. Let's finish this. ROAR OF THE FIRE DRAGON!" Natsu yelled as fire shot from his mouth burning several nearby members. He then held his sword back up and took on the nearest mage as Kagura ran beside him and took on a mage to his right.
Natsu easily deflected the ice blast from a mage to his left and used some fire in his feet to propel his the distance and close the gap. He then swung his sword up cutting a large gash from the man's left hip to right shoulder. He quickly spun around blocking the sword that was being aimed at his back. He hit the sword to the side before slicing the leg of his attacker, as he fell Natsu then drove his sword into his chest silencing his cry of pain. He pulled his sword out and looked over to Kagura who was fighting off 4 of the S class mages they were warned about. Natsu was about to run to help her when she used her gravity magic to push the four down before slashing them with her sword.
"You're going to pay for hurting my guild mates!" a voice yelled behind Natsu. He turned to look at the bald headed man in overalls. "I'M going to kill you! Earth-make hammer!" he yelled as he pulled out a giant hammer of earth and started to bring it down onto Natsu's head. Natsu simply looked at the giant hammer coming to squash him with a smirk. He whispered something as he was engulfed in flames as the hammer crushed the spot where he was standing.
"NATSU!" all three women yelled as the watch the hammer destroy the ground where Natsu was.
"Yes?"
The three women looked toward the voice and saw Natsu standing behind the bald man as Natsu brought his fist down on the man's skull driving it into the ground. "I'm a little busy at the moment so can we talk about whatever it is later?" he asked playfully as he knocked out a few more Dark mages causing the three women to let out a sigh of relief as they looked around as all the destruction they have caused.
"Well I think this was the last one." Natsu stated as he knocked out the last mage with a simply swipe of his hand. "This mission wasn't nearly as much as I thought it would be." Natsu said with a sigh.
"I'm sorry it didn't meet to your standards Natsu-sama." Kagura said in her normal monotone voice.
Mira sweat dropped. "Sama?" she asked herself.
"Kagura then looked toward Natsu "Maybe next time it will be more of a chall-"
"THERES NO WAY IM DEMON CLAW IS BEING DESTRIYED WITHOUT KILLING ONE OF YOU!" the guild mater yelled as her held Kagura in a choke old from behind with a knife pointed at her throat. "YOU'RE ALL MAGIC COUNCIL TRASH YOU DIDN'T DESVERE TO BEAT US AND KNOW YOUR FRIEND HERE IS GOING TO DIE!" he yelled as he raised his hand.
"Mind if I say something before you do that?" Natsu calmly asked.
The guild master stopped his arm and started at Natsu and stopped his arm form killing Kagura. "Say whatever you want! I'm still going to kill this women!"
Natsu simply shrugged "Alright." He then brought his eyes up to meet the man's "Flame Flicker." Natsu was engulfed with flames in an instant before disappearing.
The man yelled out in agony as his arm was hacked off at the elbow. He dropped Kagura and looked back to see the armor clad Natsu with his sword out. "How the hell did you do th-"he was cut off as Natsu put grabbed the man's head.
"I told you 'It's really annoying when all you guys do is talk during a battle'." Natsu said with a smirk before a grim expression made itself on his face. "I gave you fire so you may strive for a better tomorrow, yet you turned the fire in you into a consuming force of greed and power." He said darkly as the man's eyes widened. "So I will be taking my fire back." Natsu then turned his other arm into fire and drove it into the man's chest causing the man to yell out in agony. "May you find peace." Natsu said plainly as he pulled his arm out, a ball of fire in his palm which quickly blended with the rest of his armor. The man then began to crumble into dust and water as a gust of wind blew across the clearing.
Natsu unequipped out of his armor and walked over to Kagura. He extended his hand to help her up. "I guess you're going to want an explanation for that." he chuckled nervously. Kagura simply took his hand and pulled herself up, she then pulled herself closer to Natsu wrapping her arms around his neck. Natsu looked down into her hazel eyes with his orange one with a questioning look.
"There's no need to. I already know you're the prince of fire, and plus you saved my life." She smiled as she looked deeper into Natsu's eyes not diverting her gaze away from their dominance but instead challenging it.
"So that was what was in the letter from Erza huh?" He asked with a sly grin on his face and he leaned his head lower. "Was that all that was in that letter?" he whispered.
Kagura bit her lip as she moved onto her tip toes "there might have been a little more." She whispered back as she closed the gap between her and Natsu's lips.
Millianna looked at the scene in front of her in pure envy as Mira looked on in pure jealousy and hatred.
"If you two are done with your romantic kiss in the middle of a field of bodies we have a job to finish!" she yelled causing the two to break apart and breathe for air.
Kagura simply looked over towards Mira "It's rude to interrupt, I mean I didn't barge into your room and interrupt both of you last night." This caused Mira's cheeks to become a bright red. Millianna only looked to Mira and even more envy.
"No need to fight ladies, and Mira I told you when we got this mission what would happen and why I need to get a large house. You shouldn't be getting jealous." Natsu smirked. "Fire is an interesting element, it controls every emotion, such as desire, want, and need. I gave people fire and I can't help but love the way some people feed theirs. I love how some are raging infernos inside of you." He said as he nuzzled along Kagura's face and into her neck, flames licking along where their skin came into contact. Kagura was in a state of bliss until Natsu pulled back. Mira looked on in silent acceptance a little jealousy still present. "But you're right let's take these guys in and get paid." Natsu said as he pulled away from Kagura and grabbed several members and tossed them on a nearby wagon.
In a few hours they were back at the mayors. "Thank you all for all the hard work here are you're rewards! I'm so glad to final be done with those evil bandits, we already have men being sent out to the hideouts that they were keeping the villagers in and hopefully we can save most of them." The mayor said as he handed the two bags of jewels to Kagura and Natsu.
The four mages walked to the train station together.
"Well this was fun trip." Kagura said with the same smile she wore since she kissed Natsu.
Natsu looked over to the corner to see a depressed Millianna sulking "She going to be okay?" he asked.
"Yes she is going to be fine." Kagura stated. "Would it be acceptable if I came to see Erza-sama and Natsu-sama again soon?"
Natsu only chuckled at her question. "Of course you can Kagura, I'd like to show you my home after we get it complete also." Natsu smiled as Kagura nodded her head. Mira looked on is still mixed feelings.
"Well till the next time we meet Natsu-sama." Kagura said as she kissed Natsu quickly on the lips before turning around "Millianna our train is here."
"Aye..." Millianna said sadly as she dragged herself across the platform.
Natsu looked on in amusement "Hey Millianna." He said as he approached her.
"What- Nyyyyyaaaa!" she yelled as Natsu grabbed her and pulled her close, she immediately became quiet as her lips were covered by Natsu's. Millianna's eyes were wide till she figured out what was happening. She slowly closed them before deepening the kiss and draping her arms around Natsu's shoulders. They continued to kiss for a few seconds till the broke apart for air. Millianna put her head on Natsu's chest and made a noise that strangely resembled a purr. Natsu simply chuckled at the sound "You even purr, I'm starting to think you really are part animal."
Millianna looked up at Natsu "I can show you what type of animal I am if you want me to." She whispered in his ear seductively.
Natsu grin only grew. "Then make sure you come visit me with Kagura next time." He whispered back. He then pushed himself away "see you both later!" he yelled his goodbye as the both entered the train. He then turned to Mira who had a rather sad expression on her face. He grabbed her hand and pulled her up, getting a quizzical look form her. Natsu leaned in to her ear "how about he hurry and get a private cabin so I can make up for what I made you watch." He whisper seductively into her ear.
Mira only blushed before she grabbed Natsu's hand and ran straight for the train, shoving innocent people out of the way and even kicking out a group of travelers out of a private compartment. 'I'm so glad I decided to open my seal to 5%, I should really thank gramps for pushing me that far.' Natsu thought as he pushed Mira down onto the seat and spread her legs. He looked down at the squirming silver haired women beneath him 'defiantly have to thank Makarov, and John too.' He smiled as he locked the door before he ravaged the women.
