Ch. 2: Reasons
Liel walked through the streets of Magnolia headed for the famous guild, Fairy Tail. She was mostly there to speak with Master Makarov concerning his grandson, Laxus Dreyar. But she was also nervous, for she had heard many a rumor on during her travels of a dragon slayer many called Salamander, but whose name was Natsu.
'So once again Fate would have our crooked paths cross, Natsu. How shall you respond as too seeing me once again after our long time apart?' So went the thoughts of the fair lady.
When she reached the grand and decadant building of Fairy Tail, she paused as if to take in the beauty of the guild hall, but that would be meaningless as feeling such as awe were a foreign concept to Liel. (As were many other emotions) She could hear laughing and shouting coming from inside of the hall.
Liel forced open the marge front doors and stepped into the open room as
the doors banged open. While she marched down the rows of tables, everyone gradually became quieter as she approached the master of the guild, Makarov. She could hear a slight sniff and small gasp,
'I did not anticipate him to recognize my scent so quickly...' Makarov looked up at Liel,
"Can I help you" he questioned.
"I believe so," Liel murmured, "is this Laxus Dreyar's guild?" Makarov's eyebrows lifted slightly in a questioning way.
"Until recently, yes, but he was exiled a few weeks ago." Well of course Liel new this already, as she had brought news of Laxus. She stood thoughtfully for a moment, then answered:
"But you are, indeed his grandfather?" Makarov's eyes narrowed the slightest bit.
"I would like to know and see whom I speak to before giving anymore information." Liel was uncomfortable in removing her hood in front of Natsu, as she knew for a near surety of how he would react. She then decided to risk it, as her message for the old man was very, VERY important. As she removed her hood she could hear the awed gasps from around the guild at her flawless appearance, except for one low growl.
Liel ignored them all.
"Now, I wish to speak with you of Laxus and my reasons for being here. I've also come to retrieve your Fire Dragon and, if needs be, his team for the next four weeks or so." Liel concluded.
"No, my terms were to see and KNOW who you are." Makarov replied stubbornly. Liel decided the damage had already been done, since she could hear Natsu's growling gradually growing louder.
"I am—" An unusually loud and animalistic growl interrupted her speech.
"LIEL!" Natsu snarled and bolted to his feet, "WHAT THE HELL'RE YOU DOIN' HERE?!"
Everyone but Liel stared at him quite shocked. Erza got up, ready to lecture him but was stopped by Liel.
"I was about to explain that before you interrupted me, Natsu." Liel calmly stated, holding his gaze. His eyes flashed slightly. Liel kept speaking,
"Natsu, as one of Laxus' friends AND a dragon slayer, you are to be his defendant." Makarov took this moment to intervene, exclaiming,
"Defendant for what?!"
"Well, seeing as Laxus tried to basically kill himself as well as two other dragon slayers in the fight for this guild, he is now seen as a threat so the Elements of Dragos is debating on whether or not to out him to death." Everyone sat in a stunned silence until Natsu spoke up.
"I'm. Not. Going." He snapped. Then Erza (who was still standing) slammed her hands onto the table.
"Natsu! You were the one who was defending him during. His attack in the guild! You are his friend and should help him!" She shouted.
"If you do not go to help Laxus, then the council will be forced to spill his blood. Hus death will be on your hands, Natsu, do not be so childish." Liel calmly stated. Natsu snorted and walked towards her.
"Then let 'im die, I ain't going ANYWHERE with you." Natsu proceeded to push past her and stormed out of the guild, leaving his guild members confused and extremely shocked by his actions.
