Chapter 7: A Faithful Flame

Arriving near their destination...

Eight figures shadows casted down on the path to the village as the morning sun rose slowly behind them. Despite leaving their campsite early, Yoon decided to make sure they arrive at the village on time to meet the client. Members of Fairy Tail explain how the job works and after listening to what they had to offer, Yoon made it a top priority to meet the client early. Half of the members yawn from such an early wake up as the others took in the landscapes around them.

"Hey Yoon, are we there yet?" Yoon clenched his right fist again at Natsu's repeated question for the eighth time this morning.

"For the last time Pinky, when we see it then I will let you know that we are there..." Natsu frowns at the nickname but keeps quiet to not enrage the boy as he is.

"Yona, should we take a break this walk to the village must be taking a toll on your feet?" Kija asks the princess out of worried as she stops to rub her right foot.

"N-no! I'm fine Kija besides I can still go a bit more," Yona quickly hurries up to match everyone's pace.

"Yona dear, if you'll like I can just carry you," Jae-ha offers with a gentle smile as Hak narrowed his eyes at his suggestion.

"Let's stop for a bit and rest," Yoon announces suddenly not letting Yona kindly reject Jae-ha's offer. Natsu raised an eye at the group's concern over Yona in interest. There were almost near the village not that he was going to tell them that, but his heightened senses caught the smell of baked bread just beyond the trees. Natsu observes the team as Yoon starts to cook a light breakfast as Jae-ha and Hak go off to search for food. Shin-ah, Kija, and Zeno keep Yona company as she puts some cream that Yoon gave her for her feet.

"Hey Pinky, what's the plan?" Yoon sudden question alerts Natsu from his thoughts as Jae-ha and Hak return from their search with a bird in tow. Everyone stared at Natsu as he puts on a serious face in thought.

"I haven't got a clue...besides I'm just the observer for this group. You guys, meet up with the client and figure out a plan then let me know about it," Natsu answers honestly as everyone were stunned by his response.

"Oh? Then what are you going to do while we are doing this," Hak recovered first and crosses his arms to figure out this man's true intentions.

"Sightseeing," Everyone fell to the side as Kija got up quickly and scolded him.

"Sightseeing?! Aren't you supposed to show us how to handle this mission properly? We don't want any harm to come to Yona," Natsu drop his nice guy act and gave them a serious look.

"Listen you guys are adults and don't need me to hold your hand on completing this mission. My job is to see how you guys do and help if there's a bad situation and you can't handle it alone. If you want nothing to happened to her then protect her at all cost but remember she isn't the only person you have to protect. The village may also be in danger so you are going to put faith in her that she will come out of this in minor injuries alright," Everyone felt offensive by his words, but knew he was right about some things even if he's just an idiot sometimes.

"He's right and we will show him how much we want to be a help for Fairy Tail. Besides Natsu should be a professional at this," Yona catches her team's attention with a determined smile.

"Me? A professional? Not really especially when it comes to talking to clients. It's so boring but I rather keep fighting monsters or bandits any day. That's my profession," Natsu grins as everyone sweat-drops at how this man became their guide again.

"Ah...Yoon the village is close...beyond the trees up ahead," Shin-ah announces as everyone looked relief to finally arrive at the village.

"Oh you just notices that...you must have good senses," Natsu looks at Shin-ah curiously as Yoon narrows his eyes on his words.

"Pinky...did you know about the village already?" Kija, Jae-ha, and Hak watch him as he turns to Yoon.

"Yeah right when those two went to search for food...why?" Natsu regrets his answer as Yoon glares at him.

"You have been bugging me this whole time about almost being there that you knew since we took a break that the village was so close to us!" Natsu slowly backs away as Yoon sort of reminded him of an angry Lucy.

"Um...sorry," Yoon turns away to finish cooking breakfast in silence as Natsu looks at him in question. Once it was done, Yoon served everyone, but gave Natsu the least portion of the meal. As they finished clearing up their area, they once again headed off to the village. This time Natsu walked in the back of the group and Yona joined him by his side. She wanted to apologize for her friends, but didn't know how until she heard a grumbling sound.

"Hehe...sorry about that it seems I'm still hungry. Why did Yoon have to be so stingy?" Natsu jokes but could see Yona looked troubled until she looks back at him.

"I'm sorry for Yoon, but he was pretty mad that you didn't tell us about the village being near. Also for the guys keeping us behind because of my health," Yona apologizes as Natsu suddenly stops to squish her cheeks together.

"Qhat rth uo doing?" Yona looked at him in surprise as he releases her. (What are you doing?)

"You don't need to apologize about all that. It's important to keep your comrades in good condition besides Erza or Lucy would have done something worse to me for letting that happened to you. Anyways Yona...are you in love with any of those guys?" Natsu smiles at her gently as he ruffles her hair playful to push out her worries away.

"EH!?" Yona cried loudly as the guys turned back to see Yona blushing and Natsu laughing hard that he gripped his stomach.

"Hey Yona and Pinky we are finally here," Yoon calls out to return focus on the two as they looked to see the village ahead. Yona looked at how big the mountains were compared to her world and was about to ask Natsu something until she saw a strange look on his face. He looked at the town intensely with doubt, worry and distrust mixed together.

"Alright let's go meet the clients!" Zeno yells encouragingly as Yona saw Natsu changed to his expression with his happy carefree self. As they arrived in the village, Team Yona saw a crowd gather near a stage and Natsu decided what he had to do next.

"Alright you guys, go look for the client and figure out what needs to be done then look for me. I will be around the village or the forest," Natsu waves off happily as he heads out before heading them say anything.

"Geez does he have to leave now when we don't even know where to look," Hak sighs as he saw the princess staring at the spot Matsu had just left. He placed his elbow on her head which brought her back to her senses.

"Hak! Stop using me as a place to lean your arm on," Yona complains as Jae-ha smirks a the two.

"Alright we have to look for...I believe the mayor of this town," Yoon looks at the client's name as a man appeared on stage. The group focus their attention on what was happening in front of them.

"People, please there is no need to panic. The girls are simply fine and are working hard at making a living for themselves. I've been invited by their employers that they have been incredible ladies at their services. Remember to put your faith in your children and their successes," The man speaking had brown curly hair with green eyes and was dressed in a nice suit.

"Mayor Bayu, what about the rumors about bandits?" One villager asked as Team Yona paid more attention about the source of their mission.

"Those rumors are false I mean wouldn't we be in a terrible state by now. I assure you all there are no bandits besides I already some men to investigate," Mayor Bayu shares with the village as Yona looks to Hak in wonder of the information.

"He's right, Saki, Mori, Tsubasa, and myself went to have a look and found nothing," A man announced as people sighed in relief of hearing it from one of the founders of this village.

"Now if you all excuse me, I have to attend some other matters. Stay calm and relax there's nothing to worry about," Mayor Bayu smiles gentle as the audience applauds and cheers for him. Team Yona were quick on their feet to meet up with the Mayor, but were beaten to it by two kids. Those two had identical features so they were probably twins. The girl had long black hair with bangs parting to the left side while her brother had messy black hair with two hairs crossing each other on his forehead. They both had a honey-blackish color eyes and seemed to look sad about something. Yona and the guys hid in the shadows to see what was happening.

"Sora and Rika, to what do I own the honor of seeing you munchkins again," Mayor Bayu smiles gently towards the two children who smile back a little.

"Ah Mayor Bayu, has anything come from big sister Chinami? She promised to send us letters once she was settled in, but it's been a month and we are worried," Rika looks at the man with hopeful eyes as her brother looked away with his hands clench into fists.

"I'm sorry Rika, but there was nothing from Chinami. Please don't look so upset, she's trying hard to make a living after your father's... Anyways shouldn't you two go play with the other children. It isn't healthy for kids to worry so much at your age, now if you two excuse me," Mayor Bayu pats their heads and heads off for the direction to his office. Yona watches as Rika looks to her brother and hugs him tightly.

"This must be in pain of not hearing from their sister," Yoon catches Yona's eyes focus on the children and couldn't help feel sorry for them.

"Well we can't do much for them now let's head for the Mayor's office," Hak recalls everyone attention as they went to follow the direction the Mayor went.

While they were busy catching up, Mayor Bayu made a turn into an alley and smirked at the man in the cloak.

"Anyone suspect anything?" The man asked as the mayor passes him a bag of coins.

"Nothing I can't handle except for those damn brats of Takano that keep asking about their sister. They are the reason why people continue talking about the rumors, and I want to put an end to that. Mind shutting them up for me? There should be a thunderstorm later today," Mayor Bayu crosses his arms with a glint in his eye as the man in the cloak flashed a toothy smile.

"It would be my pleasure... just make sure there are no witness," The man in the cloak began to disappear into the opposite end of the alley.

"Consider it done," Mayor Bayu answers while heading back the direction he came from and change courses to his office. Never did he noticed the young man with a scaly scarf in the wind, on top of the building, eyes concealed with fury. He looks back to where the other cloaked man went and catches his scent before heading to the Mayor's office to wait for Team Yona to be finished with the Mayor.

As Team Yona arrives in the office, they asked his attendants about talking with him but were declined since the said man had yet to return.

"I'm sorry by this time the Mayor is making his rounds around town, but he should be here any moment," The girl smiles warmly towards Yona as she returns to her group to let them know.

"Well we might as well sit hear to wait for him," Jae-ha suggests as everyone agrees, but at the moment the Mayor appeared with a bouquet of flowers in his left arm. He glances at Yona's group in wonder, then walks to his attendant.

"Anything left for me?" He places the flowers in the vase beside her as she looks through his schedule.

"No sir you are free until dinner time, but these people would like a word with you," She gestures to Yona's group as he nods and beckons them to follow him into his office. Once he is seated, he motions for then go st as well.

"Well hello there, what can I do for you all?" The mayor asks as Yoon speak up for everyone.

"Well we accepted the mission you posted in our guild. Were wondering what you can tell us?" The mayor looks at them in surprise and grabs the paper they handed to him.

"I never requested anything, but I know who set you poor kids up. This signature here is not even mine and it's been forged by one of the villagers here. I'm real sorry about that," everyone looked stunned for a bit as Yoon, Hak and Jae-ha looked at the difference between the signature on the paper and on a document that was recently signed.

"What villager would do that?" Kija questions as Mayor Bayu sighs.

"Don...he doesn't like the idea that I'm Mayor and probably the reason why the source of the rumors. He's a nice man, but just doesn't appeal to me being in charge of the town. I'm really sorry about this...had I have known I would have cancel if," The mayor stood up and bow in apology as Yona smiles gently towards him.

"It's fine, but thank you for letting us know. We should start heading back home then if you excuse us," Yona flashes an understanding smile as the team say their goodbyes to the Mayor and head outside of the building.

"Well this sucks," Hak answers as some of them agree while Yona looked depressed about not being able to complete their first mission.

"I didn't think things like this happen in this world and we have to look for Pinky now...great," Yoon sighs in disappointment as they walked passed the gate.

"You called?" A familiar voice calls in amusement as Team Yona looks to their left to see Natsu leaning against the entrance.

"Mister, how long have you been there?" Zeno grins at him happily as Natsu flashes him one as well.

"Just moments ago,but man this town has great food here. I came to see how things were going for you guys, but it seems to look not so well," Natsu notices their disappointed looks and came to a conclusion that the Mayor has probably denied that he never sent out a request.

"Your words can never be true, now I don't know what to do," Yona sad look made the guys feel bad that her spirit was dampened from this.

"Are you sure about that?" Natsu's sudden question brought everyone's attention towards him in interest. Natsu had his arms crossed and look at them with a hard look.

"What are suggesting?" Hak narrows his eyes in suspicion as Natsu meets his gaze.

"Think about it, why would the mayor not know about the request paper being sent and that same person forged the writing for a reason," Natsu voiced his thought as everyone felt the idea struck them in their mind.

"Then that could mean the mayor could be working with the bandits," Yoon's face paled a bit as the other face harden while Yona couldn't think of what she felt.

"Shouldn't we warn the villagers or alert them?" Kija asks his friends as they thought of how to tackle this situation.

"That would cause an uproar and we don't want to have that," Jae-ha answers as the others nodded.

"Then what should we do?" Yona looks at everyone's expression until she reaches Natsu.

"Isn't it obvious? We go to the source of the so-called rumors," He smiles determinedly as the others felt their spirits ignited.

"So how exactly do we find this Don person? We can't attract unwanted attention," Hak looks back at Natsu for the plan.

"Oh I already know where that guy lives," Everyone falls to the side in shock until Yoon recovered first.

"How in the world did you find that out," Thinking that Natsu must be really smart and had this all planned out since they got here.

"Duh, Sightseeing. I went all over town during that thing happening on stage and overheard that guy's name from two guys," Yoon regrets thinking that this man was some kind of genius and believes he was a complete idiot.

"I can't believe that this is happening to the town and you could feel that sadness here," Natsu lead them through town until it started to get near the afternoon as Yona looks around her. Natsu glanced in surprise that she could feel the town people feelings.

"Alright we arrived...oh you may want to take cover," Natsu immediately duck into a bush as flying mud balls appear. They were being pelted at the group as they scrambled for cover.

"What is going on!?" Yoon yelled out as soon as the mud balls were not been thrown at them anymore.

"Are you brats here to pick a fight? Cause I won't go easy on you," A man with with spiky red hair came out as the group slowly appear before him.

"No we were looking for a guy named Don and was wondering if he can tell us what's going on around here," Yona answers first as the guy stares at them intensely. A woman with long black hair appeared from his direction and saw the mess before them.

"Well there's no one by that name so scram. You-OW!" He rudely tells the group but is interrupted by the woman who just appeared.

"Don, quit making a mess here every time someone asks for you and stop being rude. Hello there is there something that you need from my stupid husband. Oh where are my manners, my name is Misaki," Misaki smiled kindly to them as she yank on her husband's ear.

"He sent a request and we want to help the village. We were wondering if he can share some information about it," Hak replies as the two stare at him in shock.

"What do you want to know, but first tell me how you know I was the one who sent it," Don eyes them in suspicion as Natsu came up.

"When we accepted the mission, these guys went to go see to the Mayor about it. He claimed that he didn't know anything about it and that you forged his writing. He tried to make you out as the source of the problems. So we decided to come pay a visit to hear from you," Natsu stares at the man evenly until Don half-smiled.

"Well if I be damned, you figure that out pretty quick," Natsu returns the smile with a grin.

"Had a similar mission like this once, so it had to be the case. So are you willing to help us?" The mood turned tense as he nodded and led them inside his home.

"Wow, you're home is lovely," Yona awes as Misaki beamed at the girl's actions.

"Thank you, oh but you all should introduce yourselves," Misaki gestures to them as they make themselves at home.

"I'm Yona and theses guys are Hak, Yoon, Kija, Shin-ah, Jae-ha, Zeno and Ao," Yona introduce herself and her team.

"Names Natsu Dragneel and we are members of Fairy Tail," Natsu smiles politely as Misaki return it.

"Fairy Tail!? Wow I never expected you guys to come, since you all would have had your hands full from the requests. The games were insane," Natsu grins at the rumors being spread about Fairy Tail.

"Yup but Fairy Tail came out as number one," Yona looks at him curiously about the conversation they were having.

"But I must say Natsu, you are such an inspiration to that guild and many people. You encourage your guild mates to push themselves and never give up. When you went on the Chariot challenge and answered Sting's question honestly gave people a new look towards the guild. Fairy Tail is my most favorite guild in Fiore," Misaki beams at Natsu with admiration as he scratches his head in embarrassment.

"It was nothing and I couldn't stand those guys to talk bad about my family. So I decided to show them the comeback of Fairy Tail," Natsu smiles warmly at the memory of the events in his life with Fairy Tail.

"Ah so you're the famous Salamander...you got guts for challenging those twin dragon slayers kid. I like that in you. Moving on to the matter, the bandits may have mages within them. If Bayu really did send those men, then they had to conceal their location and the girls. I believe by tomorrow the shop in the middle of town will stop giving jobs for the girls," Don grabs his chin to think of what he has seen and heard of so far.

"How do you know that? Couldn't have there been another one within the town?" Yoon puts that question in as Don looks back at him with regret in his eyes.

"That place was the last time I've ever saw Chinami, so it has to be that one," He gripped his left arm to ease the guilt in him as Misaki pats his back soothingly.

"Chinami was girl about Yona's age and was left to care for her siblings after their father was banished. She needed more money so she heard that the pay at some place was good. We promised her that we take care of her siblings while she was gone, but no one hasn't heard from her," Misaki explains as Team Yona remembered the twins who were talking with Mayor Bayu.

"What are the kids names?" Shin-ah asked softly, starling everyone since hasn't spoken a word that much since they got here.

"Sora and Rika, those poor kids have been waiting to hear from her and are on the brink of losing hope," Natsu looked out to see how dark the sky was getting and his nerves were making him uneasy. He was glad to finding out more the situation, but now he needs to know where the kids are.

"Where do they live?" Kija worries about those poor kids as Natsu listened closely to this.

"They live about a mile from here, but you have to cross the bridge to reach their home. Oh my," A sudden flash of lightning was seen as Natsu felt his stomach dropped. The lightning seemed close by and he looked back to see Don's face narrowed.

"Something isn't right... Is it me or does the lightning seem to get closer to Takano's home," Natsu quickly stood up and bolted out of the house as he heard the calls from his name behind him.

Rain was pouring hard as he ran not even looking back to see if anyone was following him. Once he finished crossing the bridge, he saw the house was a flames and ean once more. When he arrived he saw a little girl crying as he searched for the other sibling. Footsteps splashing behind him as he turned to see Jae-ha come near him and Team Yona far behind him.

"Natsu, what is going on?" Jae-ha yells through the rain as Natsu takes a deep breath. He unwraps his scarf and wraps around the shivering little girl. She looked up with tearful eyes that held so much fear and pain that it broke his heart.

"It's alright. I'm going to save your brother and your precious home so trust me," The little girl nods and he hands her to Jae-ha as he ran into the house, ignoring the calls for him.

Looking around the home, he decided to start sucking in the fire now or else the debris make fall. He managed to get rid of the fire on the first floor, but as he was near the second level he could hear faint cries in one of the rooms. He followed it and kicked the door open to reveal a boy identical to the girl outside. He was holding onto a photo to his chest dearly and Natsu took one more deep breathe. He steps back into the hall and sucked up all of the fire. He could feel his head throbbing and dizziness seem to overtake him as he collapsed onto the floor. The last thing he could hear was Yona calling for his name and the little boy staring at him in shock and awe.

After the incident and the house remaining intact thanks to Natsu's efforts, Team Yona returned to Don's home with the children with them. They explained what happened and Misaki held the kids tightly. Natsu was placed in a room to rest as the others head into the kitchen to talk.

"That was intense, but it seemed Natsu knew what was going to happened," Jae-ha broke the silence as the others nodded.

"It's strange how he's been one step ahead of us on everything," Hak looks back to see the twins sleeping on the couch comfortably.

"Mister must have heard things when he went sightseeing ,but when he heard about the kids he immediately ran off. I saw how reacted to anything related to the kids," Zeno sighs as he ran a hand through his hair.

"So what do we do now?" Kija looks up to see Yona with an idea.

"I'm going to act as bait and let you guys know the location of where the girls are hidden," She states her idea as everyone went stiff.

"You can't go alone, but if that's what it takes I will crossdress for this,' Yoon agrees as Hak knew he wouldn't be able to get her out of it.

"Everyone Natsu is gone!" Misaki cries out in alarm as they hurried to find the room empty. They head back down and went outside to look for him.

"Shin-ah, do you see him anywhere?" Kija asked as Shin-ah looks to the east, then west.

"No...wait what's that over there?" Shin-ah points to the north where a bright orange light shone in the direction. They hurried until they came across a fight between Natsu and someone in a cloak.

"So you were the lightning bastard that set that house on fire," Natsu held a fierce look directed at the man.

"Tch...you were the one who stop the fire. How annoying now I have to kill you all for messing with my plans," The man release his hood to reveal long yellow hair tied back into a long ponytail. His red eyes look annoyed, but held a craze killing look.

"I like to see you try, but you messed with the wrong people. Harming kids just to kept things quiet is just messed up, but attempting to take their lives you just crossed the line," Natsu's voice shook with anger as Yona watched the two. She glance sideways to see her friends have their weapons on them, ready to help him if needed. Hak gripped the string in case he had to unsheathe his weapon from the cloth.

"Like I care have a taste of my lightning," The man threw some lightning attacks in which Natsu stood his ground.

"NATSU!" Yona cried out as we ran toward him, ignoring her friends calls and tried to reach for him. The explosion blinded everyone and the rest of Team Yona tried to look for Yona and Natsu, but the smoke made it hard to see.

Once it cleared a bit, they saw the man unharmed and waited for any signs of the two.

"Princess!" Hak decided to go in when Zeno held him back. He looked back at Zeno to see the direction of his gaze.

"Ahhahaha...see that they went ka-boom!" The man cackled but soon stopped when he saw two figures through the smoke.

Natsu's body was surrounded by flames and electricity as he stood in front of Yona who was also unharmed. She stared at Natsu in awe and wonder how powerful he really is.

"How are you still alive? You should be dead," the man took a step back as Natsu focus his attention on him.

The four dragons were taken surprised by the scales forming around his eyes giving him an appearance of a dragon. Hak and Yoon watched in interest of how his powers work, but were also taken back by the details on Natsu's face..

"I won't let you hurt anyone anymore...Lightning Flame Dragon's Firing Hammer!" Natsu engulfs his fist and forearm in fire and lightning and devastatingly strikes his opponent. As everyone waits for the smoke to clear one more, Team Yona saw the destruction on their surroundings as the man was unconscious with his eyes in the back of his head.

No one spoke but the four dragon warriors shared a look as Hak fights a smirk from forming. Yoon grips his head at the destruction caused by one attack and what fate may lie for the rest of their mission. Yona had no words to express herself, but as she stared at Natsu's figure she felt a sense of ease. She was startled by her thoughts as Natsu lends her a hand.

"Thank you Natsu for protecting me Natsu," Yona smiles softly as she took his hand and he helped steady her on her feet.

"No problem...oh you guys were here too," Natsu glances at the guys as Yoon exploded with anger at him. Zeno smiles at the display before him and calls everyone back to Don's home. When they arrived, Misaki gave Natsu an earful, but was glad to see him alright.

"Um..." A soft voice spoke out as everyone turned their attention to the twin's presence.

"...Thank you for saving our home and here's your scarf back," Rika came forth and held out it towards Natsu. He came up to the little girl and pats her head with a smile.

"Thanks for taking care of my scarf, it's very special to me. No problem that place meant a lot to you huh," Rika smiles happily as she nods at him. She looks back at her brother who was leaning his balance on his other foot while looking down. Natsu follow her look and walk toward the boy, then places one knee on the ground to be on the same level as him.

"I see you're doing fine and that you are not injured, Sora," Sora bit his lip a bit and looks at Natsu straight in the eye.

"Big brother Natsu, can you bring back our sister? Please find her and bring her back...I...sniff...want her back...I want to go home," The boy pleaded with Natsu as he let out his tears that he kept inside. Yoma felt her heart sank and saw Rika crying out as well. The loneliness these two kids have felt was finally eating them away, leaving them vulnerable. Zeno was about to reach out when he saw Natsu gently stroke Sora's hair with his right hand and held Rika's with his left hand with hers. The two eight year olds looked at him with teary eyes as Natsu flashed his trademark grin.

"Leave it to me...I swear to both of you as a mage of Fairy Tail that I will bring your sister back to you, so you guys can cry and yell at her for leaving you. For right now, let everything out just holding them in would make it worse besides you have people that have been caring for you too," Natsu looks at Misaki and Don as the twins ran toward them to embrace them and cry their eyes out. Yona and her friends smiled at the scene as she looks at Natsu who held a warm smile on his face. Thinking back to what Ik-Soo told her before the start of her journey, she wonder about the Natsu that she knows now. A bright flame that ignites all hope and faith in your darkest moment. A faithful flame that burns beside you as you face challenges even when you are down. With this in mind, she prepares a plan to help save the girls and this town.
