I don't own Fairy Tail, all rights belong to their respective creators.
I'm giving a shot on adding the extra explanations here instead at the end of the chapter. Good idea or bad, what do you guys think? Bigger questions that I get, for the back story etc, I will explain in the start of the chapter. Like I have now, with this wall of text. Sorry for making this so long.
Now I know there are a few things that might puzzle you in this chapter and if you want me to answer them faster than in the next chapter's review part, send me a message and I'll try to answer without giving out too much info about happenings in the story. There is a lot of conversation in this and I hope it's readable. If not, give an example on how I could improve on the matter. Yeah, long, sorry.
Before you ask about the missing Happy, the reason he is missing is because I very often forget to write about him and he likes to be with Lily as they are the best of friends.
Oh and Natsu is far older in this than he is in Canon. He was an adult when he joined the guild and he brought the others to it when he picked them up on his travels. His and Lisanna's relationship is kind of like it was for Hohenheim and Trisha in FMA. It will be explained in more detail as the story progresses. And I am doing time skipping in this. I don't see the reason on writing about every day of the guild if there is nothing going on, although I will probably add some Lily centered stuff in the, should I say, off periods. IE between Lullaby and Galuna island. I know I tend to explain too much, can't help it.
"Speaking."
"Thoughts"
Natsu was rolling around in his bed, his old nightmares haunting him again. Sweat was rolling from his brow and small whimpers were coming out of his mouth. He was suddenly awakened by a scream and his first thoughts went to his daughter.
"LILYY!" He shouted as he ran to the room that he had built for the little girl. Natsu's fear rose when he heard crackling sound and a wail of pain from behind the door. He slammed the door open and the sight stopped him dead on his tracks as his brains desperately tried to make sense of the scene.
Lily was kneeling in the floor, tear streaks was seen on her cheeks and she tried to cradle and wave one of her arm that was now on fire. Natsu immediately tried to inhale the fire from her hand but nothing happened. Then he saw that Lily's arm was not her regular arm but a paw of a tiger. Claws had replaced fingers and he could see the blood on the tips of the claw. Natsu cringed as he remembered how his first transformation had hurt.
"It's okay Lily. Daddy's here and I'm going to help you." Natsu said gently and picked up his daughter. Lily tried to keep her hand away from Natsu but he grasped the burning paw with his own hand.
"I-i-it hurts daddy. Make it stop!" Lily whimpered to her father and tried to shake the fire away.
"I know honey. It's okay. It will stop soon." Natsu said with a calming tone and ignited his own hand, hoping that his flame could somehow ease the pain. Lily flinched at the heat she felt but when the sharp pain from her hand turned to a dull throbbing, she started to calm down a bit.
"Daddy, what's happening to me?" She asked with a whisper, feeling more afraid now that she could see that her hand was not how it was supposed to be.
"Your magic awakened Lily, there is nothing to be afraid of." Natsu said with a small smile, encouraging his daughter more.
"HAPPY! GET MIRA HERE." He shouted from the door before he kept walking in a small circle inside Lily's room. He did everything he could in calming his daughter down but every time the flames in Lily's hand grew, she started crying again in fear and pain.
Happy had heard the wail of pain and when Natsu shouted, he bolted through the window like a blue lightning. Happy flew faster than he had ever flewn before and when he saw the house where the Strauss siblings lived, he felt so relieved that he forgot to slow down. He slammed to the window of the top floor with a loud bang and fell to the ground.
"What was that?" Mirajane thought and rose from her bed, the loud bang noise from her window had woken her up and the loud roaring coming from Elfman's room helped.
"Who's attacking. SISTER! ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?" He shouted and tried to get his feet from the tangles his blanket had gone into.
"I'm fine Elfman. Something just hit my window, you can go back to sleep." Mira said back and because she had not seen anything, she went back to bed. Mirajane just got herself comfortable on the bed when there was a knocking sound coming from the window. "What is it now?" She thought in irritation and walked to the window. When she saw Happy, she felt fear. "Something must've happened at Natsu's" Was her thoughts when she opened the window. Happy flew in and started shouting in a hurry before Mirajane caught him in her arms.
"Happy. Calm down and tell me what's wrong. I can't make anything out of your speech right now." She said calmly. Happy looked at the serious eyes of Mirajane and took a deep breath.
"It's Lily, something happened and Natsu told me to get you." Happy said and curled his tail around Mira before bolting out the window.
"Happy, I need clothes!" She screamed but Happy was not listening. His sister needed Mirajane and his father had told to get Mira so that was exactly what he was doing. When they got the house that Happy lived with Natsu and Lily, he dropped Mira by the door and flew straight in.
"God damn it Happy." Mira grumbled and ran inside the house, her worry for Lily and Natsu greatly overweighting her worry about her current state of dress. She was shocked when she reached Lily's room.
Natsu was cradling Lily who had both of her arms now in flames and in the shape of tigers paws. He noticed Mira on the door, with a shocked look on her face.
"Hey Mira. You know more about take over than me. please help Lily." Natsu pleaded, trying not to sound scared at the pain his daughter was going through. Mira only nodded as she couldn't rely that her voice could hold.
"Natsu, out." Was the only thing she said after she had taken Lily into her arms and started to calm the child down.
Mira assured the child that she was not abnormal, she was not going stay that way and the pain would soon go away. Then Mira showed the little girl how her hands could change in different monster and animal's paws. After Lily had calmed down a bit, she told her how her mother used the same magic than Lily and that's why her hand's had changed to one of a tiger. Mira made a small joke about how the fire in her hands was all her daddy's fault. Natsu smiled gently at that remark from outside the room. "You have no idea Mira." He thought to himself and went to the kitchen.
Natsu filled one glass with water and one with juice as he waited for Mira to come out of the room and tell him how it went. He didn't need to wait long.
"She's sleeping with Happy now. She was very afraid of herself." Mira said and walked to Natsu.
"Thank you Mira. I really appreciate this." Natsu said and gave the juice to the white haired woman.
"Nothing to thank me for Natsu, of course I help. She is my niece." She responded and took a sip from the glass.
"It started tonight Mira, if that's what you're wondering."
"No, it was not that. I know you would've called me sooner if needed. The thing that puzzles me is that, that wasn't normal Take Over magic. It shouldn't hurt." Mirajane said and looked at Natsu.
"I wouldn't know Mira. I don't know about Take Over other than what...she told me." Natsu said and kept staring at his glass. Mirajane sighed and walked over to Natsu, pulling him into a hug. Natsu stiffened lightly at the sudden contact. He wasn't used to being hugged by others than Lily after his loss of his significant other.
"I know and I will help you get through this. Were family right? I don't leave my family in trouble anymore than you do. But."
"I sensed a But. This is going to be a huge But isn't it?"
"In a sense. You need to talk about Master about this. He could know what's going on. For all we know, that hurt because you're a dragon slayer and gave Lily the ability to use Fire." Natsu winced at the words, feeling discomfort of thinking how he was responsible of hurting Lily, his own daughter. Mira felt him squirm and responded firmly.
"Stop it Natsu. This is not your fault. I'm not blaming you and I don't think Lily is either."
"So, to the Master then?" Natsu asked and pulled away from the hug, taking the glass from Mira's hand and walking to the sink.
"Yes, the Master. And I'm staying for the rest of the night." Natsu's eyes widened. He hadn't had anybody stay over since Lisanna died.
"Just incase something happens. I'm not going to crawl over to your bed." Mirajane said with annoyance. "As much as I would want to." Was her silent thought.
"I wasn't thinking that Mira and you know it. It's just nobody's been here. For a long time."
"I know, and that still doesn't change the fact that I'm staying for the rest of the night. It's not like I can go home wearing this." Mirajane said flatly and tugged her nightgown slightly. That was the time when Natsu actually paid attention on what Mira was wearing.
It was a white nightgown that hugged Mira's body in all the right places and was loose and comfortable at the same time. The Natsu looked down and felt heat rising to his cheeks. He was standing in boxer shorts, ragged boxer shorts. Natsu agreed quickly and pushed Mira to his bedroom saying that he sleeps on the couch and no arguments. Mirajane tried to protest but Natsu didn't stop to listen. "How embarrassing was that." Natsu thought to himself as he made the couch to be a better place to sleep.
***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***
It was the next day when Mirajane and Natsu walked to the guild, Mira having Lily in her arms and telling her how the Take Over magic worked in general. Natsu opened the door and walked inside, spotting Romeo in the corner coloring in a book.
"Lily, why don't you go play with Romeo when your aunt and me go talk to gramps?" Natsu asked playfully from his daughter. Mira had told him to keep his tone lighter than usual as the shock of waking up with flaming paws as hands was bound to be a big one.
"Okay daddy. Will you take long?" Lily asked and hopped down from Mirajane's hands.
"No, we'll be back before you know it." Natsu said with a smile and ruffled Lily's hair, getting a giggle out of the little girl.
"you're really close with her, huh?" Natsu heard a young woman's voice from behind him and as he turned his head, he saw Lucy smiling at the sight of Lily.
"Yeah, she's my treasure. And good morning Luce." Natsu said and walked towards the bar.
"CANA! I SAID NOT TO TOUCH THE LIQUOR WHEN I'M NOT AROUND!" Mirajane shouted when she spotted the brown patch of hair bobbing behind the counter. Natsu chuckled at the sight of Cana trying to sneak out from behind the bar with an angry Mirajane staring her down. Natsu nodded to the guilders who returned the gesture with a wave of their hand before going back to their conversations.
Natsu climbed the stairs that lead to the office of Master Makarov and waited Mira to join him before he knocked to the door.
"Come in." Came a gruffy voice and they opened the door. The voice of the master came from behind a mountain of paperwork and they could hear him grumbling about the amount of signing he had to do. Natsu cleared his throat to inform the Master that they had entered the room while Mira closed the door with a silent click. Makarov lifted his head from the paperwork and parted the stacks of paper on his desk.
"Mira, Natsu. How can I help you?" He asked and took a more comfortable position on his chair.
"Lily's magic awoke last night." Natsu said and waited for Mira to continue talking. Makarov lifted his brow at this. He wondered why they would want a meeting with him to discuss the awakening of magic, it was not unusual that it awoke in mage's children around the age of six or seven. And as Lily was now six, almost seven, it was right in the marginal of happening. Mira cleared her throat and started the explanation.
"She had tiger paws that was covered in fire. That however is not the problem. The problem is that the transformation hurted her and we don't know why. Take Over magic doesn't hurt and I can bet that the paws came because of Lisanna. My first guess is that it was the fire that hurt her but I can't say for sure since Natsu is a fire dragon slayer and that should give Lily some resistance to heat." Mira said, trying to explain the whole ordeal without giving Makarov time to ask questions in the middle.
"So she used Take Over and Dragon slayer magic at the same time?" Makarov asked in confirmation.
"That's what it seemed but we can't be sure." Natsu said and sat down on one of the chairs that was circling the room. He was sure that this will take longer than he thought. Makarov rubbed his chin while thinking about what had been said. "Most likely it was because of Natsu that the transformation hurt. It had hurted for him so it would make sense that it would hurt for Lily too." He thought to himself as he pondered the situation. Makarov was startled out of his thoughts by Mira who had stepped in front of him.
"What?" He asked the angry looking woman.
"I asked do you know what it could be and how we can help in the matter." Mira huffed in annoyance. She didn't like when the master ignored her talking.
"Honestly I don't know. But you said that it WAS Take Over, right?" Makarov asked Mira.
"Yes, I can't see what else it could've been. I mean, I can differentiate between tiger paws and dragon claws and I highly doubt that even if Natsu can take on characteristics of dragons, Lily would not without learning it before hand."
"I suppose not. If it is just Take Over magic then you should be the one to teach her about it don't you think? You should be able to teach her, so even if it did hurt, it wouldn't hurt nearly as much" Makarov said to Mira. She blinked at the question and thought about it.
"Before you even consider Elfman, try to picture him teaching a little girl how it is manly to use Take Over." Makarov said, trying to keep a neutral voice. The slight chuckling that came over from Natsu was not helping in the matter. Mira paled slightly at the image of Elfman teaching sweet little Lily on how to be a man. There was no way in hell she would let Elfman corrupt the poor girl. So she agreed hastily to the suggestion, not that she had anything against it. Mira always regretted no being able to spend as much time with Lily as she would have wanted. Mira was the barmaid afterall and that meant that she would have to service customers and Lily could not always help her do her job. When the guilders got drunk, they would start to brawl and that was not a good time to be walking amongst them.
"Good. Now Natsu. Is it alright if Lily learns Take Over from Mira?" Makarov asked as he thought it would be better to get confirmation from the parent in question.
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be? I mean, I can't think of anyone else who could be better than Mira." Natsu said with a small smile.
"It's settled then. Now get out of here, I still got a ton of complaints to go through." Makarov said and waved them out of the office.
Natsu and Mira walked back down to the bar, Natsu waving at Lily who was still coloring with Romeo. Mira went back behind the counter and Natsu sat on a bar stool on the other side. Cana walked to the bar only to be turned around by the deathglare that Mira gave her.
"You're not drinking here for a week Cana. That's your punishment." Mira said and wiped the counter furiously. Cana whined at the punishment and dragged her feet when she walked out of the guild. Both Natsu and Mira turned their heads when they heard a whine coming from the request board. It was Lucy, trying to decide on a job.
"You should go on a mission Natsu. You need the money for Lily." Mira said to Natsu who nodded.
"Yeah, I'll take Lucy along to show her how things are done in Fairy Tail." Natsu said and went to talk to Lucy.
***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***
Lucy was reading the posts in the request board, feeling a little overwhelmed by the sheer amount and variety of the requests. There were astrology requests, someone wanted help to plan a wedding. There was even a request to shut down a volcano, which made Lucy sweatdrop at the image of a mage pouring ice cubes inside.
"Can't decide on a job?" She heard a voice behind her and saw that it was Natsu when she turned her head.
"Yeah, there are so many and they are all different. It's a little overwhelming." Lucy agreed. Natsu pulled one of the requests on top of the board and showed it to Lucy.
"How about this one? This shouldn't be too difficult." Natsu gave the request slip to the blonde woman. Lucy read through it, being more excited as further down she read. Only the part about a pervert searching for a blonde maid made her cringe.
"Don't tell me, you asked because of the blond maid thing?" Lucy waved the slip in front of Natsu. The amazed look on Natsu's face made her show the piece of writing on the slip.
"No Lucy, I suggested it because it's close and it pays well." Natsu replied and told Lucy that it was near their guild and getting 200.000 jewels for burning a book was quite a good payment. Lucy's eyes started to shine as she thought all of the things she could buy with that much money. Only when Natsu said that he would like to join her as he needed money for Lily, her face darkened a bit but she agreed to it.
Lucy could guess that it took money to raise a child and maybe she could get to know more about Natsu and how he could raise a child with such a carefree attitude. Maybe she could even ask him about the mother of the child. So they went to Mira, who recorded the request being accepted and sent them off, with a crying Lily on her arms. Natsu gave a warming smile to Lily and promised that they would return soon and until they did, she should listen to Mira. Lily got a little excited when Mira told her that she would be learning her mother's magic from Mira.
***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***
As Lucy and Natsu was on their way to Everlue, Mira started her unofficial training of Lily on the aspects of Take Over.
"Now Lily, you see this cute bunny here?" Mira asked the little girl as she plotted a small brown rabbit on the pen in the backyard of the guild.
"Yes Aunt Mira. She's a very cute bunny." Lily said, being all serious as she was taking training seriously. Her father had always said that training is training and there is no room to play when training.
"Good. Now, I need you to whack it on the head." Mira said and opened the pen so the little girl could go inside.
"Wha-what? But I don't wanna hurt the cute bunny." Lily said as tears started to appear on her eyes.
"This is training Lily dear. You need to even if you don't want to." Mira said gently, almost swayed on stopping the basics as she looked in the big eyes full of tears. "Aww she's so cute!" She thought to herself.
"O-okay" Lily sniffled and wiped her eyes. She took a step towards the rabbit and stopped as it turned it's eyes to her. Lily lifted her small hand that trembled as she thought that she had to hit the rabbit on the head and the look it gave her wasn't making things easier. "She's as gentle as Lisanna was." Mira smiled as she remembered when Lisanna was put to this kind of training at first. Mira looked on as Lily took another step towards the rabbit and with closed eyes, slammed her fist on the head of the rabbit.
The bunny staggered and before Lily could sigh in relief that it was alright, Mira told her to whack it again. This time the tears fell from her eyes as she brought her fist to another strike and knocked the rabbit out.
"Now sweetheart, put your hand on top of the little bunny and repeat after me. Take Over: Rabbit Soul." Mira said and walked over to the little girl. Lily placed her hand on top of the rabbit and petted it at the same time as she whispered the words with a trembling voice. She really didn't like hitting the rabbit and she thought it was cruel.
"Now Lily, you will assimilate the soul of that bunny to yourself. Don't worry, nothing bad will happen to the bunny. You just get the ability to use it's powers." Mira said and waited for the glow to end that indicated that the Take Over had been succesful. Mira was going to leave with Lily to train on how to use the actual soul in take over that she just got but receded when Lily said that she wanted to wait that the bunny was okay. After they set free the rabbit that was now disoriented but not otherwise hurt, they started to train Lily on how to call out the soul of the rabbit and then get used to moving around with it. She was a quick learner and quite powerful for a six year old.
***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***
Lucy was walking towards the train station after they had returned the book in question for it's rightful owner as it had turned out to be a long letter from father to son. It had been a surprise to all of them when that had been found out and after that Natsu had been against on burning the book as he thought that the last words of a father should not be burnt, instead it should be delivered to the one they were ment. Lucy had suspected that there was something personal as there had been sorrow in Natsu's eyes when he had said that and then proceeded to pound Duke Everlue on the sewer wall they had been fighting in.
"Natsu, I wanted to ask about something." Lucy said and took a look at the man walking next to her.
"Sure thing. What'cha want to know Luce?" Natsu answered happily as he didn't want to bother Lucy about his financial problems.
"I was just wondering about Lily's mother." Lucy began but stopped quickly when Natsu gave her a dark glare.
"Not talking about it Lucy. Don't even bother." He said and started to walk faster.
"I understand but I was just thinking that you remembered something about last words and.."
"What did you not understand about not wanting to talk about it?" Nastu said with a growl and stared the girl hard. Lucy gulped at the sight.
"O-okay, sorry. I was just worried that there was something wrong." Lucy said quietly. She hadn't been a part of Fairy Tail for long but already felt more at home here than she had in her actual home and the people reminded her about the servants that used to be like family to her. It was easy to get familiar with Natsu and she had quickly counted him as one of her friends and it had bothered her that Natsu was like that and there was nothing she could do about it.
"No, I'm sorry." Natsu sighed as he realized that of course she would ask him about things. She didn't know as nobody told her as they respected his wishes.
"I haven't talked to anyone about it Lucy and I hardly think it would be fair to talk to you about it first." Natsu said and continued walking. Lucy slightly wondered at the not fair statement and thought that Mira would know something about it. She started walking again and was just about to shout for Natsu to wait, when she heard running coming from behind her. Turning her head, she saw a petite woman with pink hair and a maid outfit running towards her. "What the hell?" She thought to herself and shrugged her shoulders, deciding that it had nothing to do with her.
"Mistress, wait" The pink haired woman said and grabbed Lucy's shoulder, eliciting a small yelp from the woman. Lucy turned and stared at the pink haired woman.
"What was that for? I got really startled you know?" Lucy said and tried to slow her heart beating. She really wasn't expecting anyone to suddenly grab her like that.
"Luce, what's wrong?" Natsu said as he came running. He had heard the yelp from Lucy and thought that one of the servants had come to get revenge for her/his master.
"This woman just grabbed me Natsu, don't know anything else yet." Lucy said and took a better look at the woman.
"I'm Virgo, Mistress. I came to bring you my key Mistress." The woman said with a flat tone.
"Wait what?" Lucy said, getting more confused by the second.
"You're a celestial spirit?" She tried to confirm as the words started to make sense.
"Yes Mistress. My contract with the Duke was cancelled when he was caught for committing crimes. I wanted you to take my key Mistress." Virgo continued, offering a golden key to Lucy.
"Didn't know you liked bondage Luce. You better not give Lily any influences" Natsu said while pointing the broken chains on Virgo.
"WHAT? I don't! Not that there is anything wrong with it but I don't do that kind of stuff." Lucy said, getting flustered at the idea of being bound to chains. Natsu shaked his head and continued to point at the chains.
"Then what's this Luce?" He said and took one of the chains in his hand to show it to the blond woman.
"Don't blame me for what the Duke forces his spirits do." Lucy said with more anger in her voice and slapped Natsu on the head. It took a few more very confusing sentences to get everyone to understand that Virgo was in chains by her choice and while she did like to get punished, sometimes, Lucy had nothing to do with her outfit sofar. And she was there to form a contract with Lucy, Virgo was even more eager for it when she saw Lucy slap Natsu few times more as he made some inappropriate jokes. After that was settled, they all made their way to the train station to start their trek back home and Virgo went to the spirit realm.
***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***MaP***
They came back to the guild with a bang and Natsu was quickly swamped by a pink fuzzball that shouted daddy to his ears. He took the fuzzball in his hands and took a better look at it.
"Lily?" Natsu asked in confirmation as the girl had greatly changed. She had pink fur all over herself and there were pink bunny ears on top of her head and her hands were somewhere between rabbit paws and human hands.
"It's me daddy! Aunt Mira taught me Take Over magic!" The girl squealed in joy.
"Aren't I cute daddy? I'm a bunny!" Lily said with pride in her voice and Natsu chuckled. He kissed Lily on the forehead and put her back down.
"You're always cute Lily. And now you're even more cute." Natsu said and rubbed one of Lily's ears.
"Welcome back you two." Mira said and brought Lily a glass of milk and a bun straight out of the oven.
"How was the mission?" She asked and smiled at Lily as she ate the bun with two bites. Lucy smiled at the sight too before answering.
"It went well, beside the fact that the Duke was a pervert." Lucy said and shuddered at the memory.
"Don't say anything more Lucy, there are children present." Mira said and hoped that Lily hadn't heard the word. She really didn't want to explain that.
"Dad." Lily said and drank her milk.
"Hmm, what is it honey?" Natsu said as he sat down, thinking about his past with small smile in his lips.
"What's a pervert?" She asked and looked at her dad, eyes wide in anticipation on learning what the new word meant. Natsu snapped the handles of the chair at the question before he could calm himself down.
"Wait here sweetie. You will know in a minute." He said gently to Lily and walked towards the two woman who were talking. Lily was looking very confused at her father and waited for be told the meaning of the new word.
"Mira, could you go and explain to Lily what pervert means, in the nicest way possible while I go and beat the shit out of Gray." Natsu said darkly, thinking that the icebox had taught his daughter something more than bad language. Mira paled slightly at the idea and pushed the responsibility to Lucy who was now green in her face.
"Why would Lucy be better choice Mira?" Natsu asked, being now slightly confused.
"Because, she was the one who taught the word to her." Mira said with a sweet smile that Lucy just knew wasn't meaning anything good.
"Lucy." Natsu said quietly, now turning his full attention to the younger woman.
"Y-yes Natsu." Lucy asked with a trembling voice. Natsu was now downright terrifying. His eyes had darkened and there was a hard glint in them and the slight increase in pressure told Lucy that he was building his magic up.
"Did you or did you not, teach my daughter the word pervert?" Natsu said and cracked his knuckles. Mira was getting worried as Natsu was being far more angry than she thought. She didn't remember Natsu being this protective but she guessed it came on stronger after Lisanna had been lost.
"N-no. She overheard me talking to Mira. Right Mira?" Lucy asked with a pleading voice towards the white haired woman. Before Mira could answer, Natsu sighed, releasing all his magic power he had been gathering as he knew it wasn't actually Lucy's fault. Mira would have stopped her if that had been the case.
"C'mon sweetie. Were going home since everyone here teaches you only bad things." He said to the small girl that he had grabbed and was now in his arms.
"Not true! Aunt Mira taught me take over and that's not a bad thing. She said it wasnt. I'm not a bad girl and neither is Aunt Mira!" Lily said with conviction in her voice that reminded Natsu of Lisanna. He smiled and kissed Lily in the cheek.
"I know honey. And neither are you or Mira bad girls. Both of you are simply adorable." Natsu said, unaware that Mira had overheard them and was now blushing madly. Mira went back to the bar, leaving behind a stunned Lucy as she didn't know why the woman was blushing. Natsu and Lily were walking towards their house to check that Happy wasn't doing any damage or trying to hide fish in Lily's room again.
So, here we are again with a new chapter for this one. I had a hard time stopping this before it turned into a pointless ramble and I am starting the main plot for this in the next chapter. What I would like to know is, is this too short for a chapter or is it too long? How long would you prefer as I could've written more but decided to post it on the next chapter. The magics are highlighted when they speak of the magic and in normal when they speak of the person IE Dragonslayer magic and Natsu being a dragonslayer. I have no clue how Take Over works in terms of practicing and just went with what I thought it worked from reading the manga and watching the anime. Hopefully you will forgive me :D
I would like to use this opportunity to give credit to these people, as they were a help for this chapter.
treeofsakuras: I was glad to get your assistance and hopefully I delivered what you wanted ^^
SaveTheCheese: You were also a great help and hope you like this chapter.
Satsujinki Nanaya: Thanks for the quick reply and hopefully your wishes were also granted in this chapter.
Naturesshadow: Your help were great, I used many of your ideas and twisted them to suit my needs. I have not used much of it in this chapter but will in the ones to come. Most of the questions you asked in the PM you sent, will be answered in due time but the age should become apparent in this one :D
You all had almost the same ideas and all of them was very much like each other :D I'm hoping that you continue to help me in order for making this a working piece of fiction. Thank you for reading and please review. That would be highly appreciated.
The two guests who reviewed. I don't know how to answer to you so I will just put it here:
I think it is apparent now that Lisanna is dead, as in permanent dead. No EdoLisanna or anything like that. It's not because I dislike the character, it just doesn't suit my plans for this fic. I know this will be hard to do but I do enjoy a challenge and I hope that I will be told if I make a mistake. Flames are ignored but constructive criticism is always welcome.
