Here's the Second Chapter of The Warmth of Her Dragon!

Disclaimer: I don't own Fairy Tail or its characters, only Hiro Mashima- Sensei does.


When Igneel neared the large clearing where him and his son lived, he saw the stupidest thing he had ever seen. His son, Natsu, was trying to beat a Gorian without using magic. "I guess I should go help that stubborn son of mine."

ROOOOAAAARRRR!

At the sound of Igneel's roar the Gorian ran away.

When Natsu heard his father's roar he turned around. "Dad! Why did you do that? I could've beaten it all by myself!" Natsu said as if he had somehow gained the powers overnight to be able to defeat a monster like that.

Igneel landed in the clearing and face palmed at his son's words. "Maybe you could of beat it if you used magic, but you weren't. Why weren't you?"

Natsu felt embarrassed from the glare his father was giving him, "That Gorian wasn't using magic, so I wasn't gonna use magic either."

Igneel sighed, "Natsu if you don't use your magic then you're no stronger than a human, and do you really think a mere human could beat that huge gorian?"

Natsu felt ashamed, "No."

"Exactly Natsu, be proud of your magic and use it to your advantage. Also, so you can scare away monsters like that, so I won't need to save you. You have to become stronger so you can protect the people closest to you."

Natsu smiled up at his father, "Yeah, one day I'll be the one protecting you, Dad!"

Igneel chuckled, "Not just me, Natsu. Eventually there are going to be other people who are important and you want to be able to protect them."

Natsu looked puzzled at that, "I don't get. You're my only family. Why do I need anyone else?"

"One day I'm sure you'll know what I mean," Igneel said as he thought of the little girl he had met an hour earlier.

"Oh ok," Natsu looked deep in thought until he started jumping around the maniac because he had just remembered, "Oh that's right! What did you bring back from the human village, Dad?" Natsu asked while jumping around his father's face. "Did you get good food or toys?"

Igneel knew he forgot something, and he was just reminded what. "Umm… I forgot to get stuff for dinner," he replied awkwardly.

"What do you mean you didn't get anything! The reason you left me all alone for most of the day to do nothing is so that you can get food for dinner. And if we don't have food for dinner then we can't eat, and I'm HUNGRY! And you says I'm the stupid one" Natsu whined.

"Is food all you ever think about?" Igneel asked aloud.

"Yes." Natsu said very serious.

Igneel faced palmed and asked, "Well, I guess I should go to the lake and catch something. Do you want to come Natsu?"

"Of course, it was boring being all alone. All I could do was beat up that tree over there," Natsu said pointing to a tree at the edge of the clearing, and it was burnt and charred.

"Natsu, I told you not to destroy our home," Igneel scolded while tapping Natsu's head with his talon.

"Ow… Dad that hurts," Natsu said holding his head.

Igneel huffed, "I guess we should go get dinner now, it'll get dark soon." He looked to the sky to see the sun was about to set.

"Yeah let's go!" Natsu screamed as he got on his father's back.

The father laughed at his child's enthusiasm as he took off towards the lake. He hoped that his son would like the present he hoped to give him, a friend.


I know this chapter was short, all the ones after this aren't going to be nearly this short. But this chapter was mainly to introduce Natsu and establish his relationship with Igneel.

Also I plan to have this story continue on to where the manga/anime are if I ever get there. So as they get older most likely the rating will go up as well.
