/Author's Note/
Yaayy! I'm free from my homework noooowww! Wheeeee~! ^^
Ahem.. Well, I'm running out of ideas about how to find 'Rare Dark Interest' in my 'Meow!' story. (Sorry!) When I was trying to continue the story, another idea suddenly popped out from my mind. And that's this story. Of course I'm not abandoning 'Meow!' story. But while I'm working on it, I hope you guys would enjoy this one. Another Gray/Natsu story, my favorite boys. -^^-
Oh! It's an "AU" btw. Haha.
Sorry for every mistakes in grammars and spellings..^^;

Chapter 1 / Job
"-tsu!"
"Natsu!"
"NATSU!"
Someone slapped Natsu's head, hard enough to wake him up. "Wake up, Natsu Dragneel!"
"Wha-?" Natsu yawned as he rubbed his head.
"If you keep sleeping inside my class, you better get out of here, young man." Ms. Evergreen warned.
"M'kay…" Natsu yawned once again.
=====killyoukillme=====killyoukillme=====
Lunch time..
Another yawn from Natsu. "Sleepy…"
Natsu Dragneel. An 18-year-old high school student in Fairy Tail High School. He had an unique pink haired color for a boy. And he's an orphan, lived alone in his apartment only with his blue (?) cat, Happy. He's indeed a very smart student for he didn't have to pay the school's fee because he got a full scholarship.
"You sure yawned a lot, Natsu. Lack of sleep?" Lucy asked.
Lucy Heartfilia, 17 years old. She lived with her nanny after her parents passed away a year ago. Everybody knew she had a small crush on Natsu since it's very obvious, but the said boy didn't even notice at all.
"M'hmm.. Kind of…" The pink haired boy rested his head on the table.
"Hey, flame-head. Have some lunch, will 'ya." Gray poked Natsu's head.
Gray Fullbuster, 18 years old. Son of Ur, the owner of the biggest ice cream company in Magnolia City, "Frosty Bite". He had a younger brother by 1 year named Lyon and an older sister who's studying in America, Ultear. He and Natsu were rival, they often teased each other and communicated in some 'unfriendly' ways, such as punches, kicks, yells, and stuffs, but they're still best friend.
"Here, I got a sandwich for you." Loke offered Natsu a sandwich.
Loke, Fairy Tail Highschool number 1 boyfriend-wanna-be. He's 18 years old and very popular among girls, but he only had a huge crush on Lucy. His family also ran a big fur coat company, but not as huge as Gray's.
"Maybe you want some coffee, Natsu? Just to make you keep awake until school's over." Jellal said.
Jellal Fernandez, a 19-year-old-boy with red tattoo covered the right part of his face. He finally succeeded in becoming Erza's boyfriend after chasing her for 3 years.
"Eat, Natsu. Or do I have to shove that poor sandwich into your mouth?" Erza glared.
Erza Scarlet, 18 years old. She had a very beautiful long scarlet hair. She's a strong girl and she's scary in a way "don't-you-dare-bother-me-or-else". But she made a great leader of student council (since everybody were afraid of her).
"Alright, alright, I'm eating now. Geez, guys.." Natsu grabbed the sandwich and started eating. He pouted while eating, but deep inside his heart, he felt really glad to have these people as his friends who would always care about him.
=====killyoukillme=====killyoukillme=====
After school..
"Hey, wanna go to watch a movie? I heard there's a new interesting thriller movie in the cinema." Lucy asked.
Everybody nodded in agreement. "Sure, why not?" Erza said.
"Sorry, I'll pass." Natsu raised his hand. "I need to have some sleep. Plus, my cat, Happy, needs me to feed him for dinner. Hahaha."
Suddenly Gray strangled his neck and ruffled his hair. "You're no fun, flame-head! I assume you're afraid of watching a scary thriller movie, huh? Such a chicken! Hahaha!"
Natsu grabbed Gray's arm and tried to break free. "No way! I'm not a pussy like you, ice-block! I hope you didn't pee yourself inside the cinema! Hahahaha!"
Those teases and fight were their everyday's scenery. While the two were doing that 'friendly' things, all of their friends would just laugh and try (but not so hard) to stop them.
Natsu finally managed to break free from Gray's arm. "Okay, so, see you guys tomorrow then. Bye!" He grinned widely and left.
"Natsu rarely went with us after 6 pm." Loke sighed.
"It's fine. Everybody has their own occasions, right? And looks like Natsu's gonna need a long rest judging from his sleepy condition today." Jellal said.
"Right. Well, let's go to the cinema, shall we?" Erza started walking with Jellal, hand on hand, followed by the others.
Gray stood there alone for a while, watching Natsu disappeared beyond the darkness. Then he turned around and followed his friends.
=====killyoukillme=====killyoukillme=====
Instead of walking in to his apartment, Natsu walked to the small abandoned building not far behind his apartment.
"On time, brat." Gajeel said. "Don't forget today is the deadline for us to get the briefcase." Gajeel's one of 'Dragon Slayers' members. Almost every part of his body were replaced by iron.
"Ready, Natsu-nii?" Wendy, a 12-year-old girl. No one would ever guess this sweet innocent little girl was a genius in making potions; healing potions, until the deadliest one. Her light body made her able to do a 'beautiful' aerial jump which very suited for dodging enemy's attack. "Here's your potion, Natsu-nii. Catch~!" Wendy threw a small bottle of healing potion for Natsu.
"Where are Rogue and Sting?" Natsu caught the bottle after dropped his school bag and replaced them with his equipment. Rogue and Sting were twin, but they're not an identical twin. They worked in 'Dragon Slayers' just because they thought it was a 'pretty fun' job to do.
"I've already sent them to watch the situation and divert the bodyguards attention. That way, those bodyguards will leave the 'dragon' alone and you could take it's briefcase easily." The leader of 'Dragon Slayers', Laxus said.
Natsu nodded. "Alright then. Let's go."
'Dragon Slayers'. A secret organization that would do any kind of mission, whether it's good or bad as long as the payment is very high. Stealing, delivering, spying, destroying, capturing, saving, and even eliminating. The leader is Laxus Dreyar. And they referred their prey as a 'dragon'.
=====killyoukillme=====killyoukillme=====
"Natsu-nii, have you got the briefcase?" Wendy asked.
"Yeah. Done. Now let's go-
"Aaaaaaarrrgghhh!"
Natsu turned around. Blood scattered everywhere. All he could see was a dead body of the briefcase's owner in front of him which didn't even shape like a human anymore. He immediately shut his eyes in disgust. "Why… We already got the briefcase.. Why did you still… eliminate him.." He asked Gajeel hesitantly. "Laxus didn't even mention us to eliminate him.."
"But he also didn't say anything about prohibiting us to eliminate him, did he? And that damn 'dragon' already knew too much. It would be so much harm for us." Gajeel licked the blood from his iron grip and smirked. "Besides… It's just another random human. That's all."
"Tch..." Natsu threw his face away from Gajeel.
Then he could feel a small tug on his shirt. "It's okay, Natsu-nii. You'll get used to it eventually. Hehe~." Wendy smiled. Natsu just nodded a little, following his partners while carrying the briefcase and went back to the base camp.
Although Natsu was a member of 'Dragon Slayers', he never, even once, took someone's life using his own hand.
