"Natsu... what happened?" Lucy mumbled. They were now in her room at her apartment. Natsu was in a restless sleep. His forehead was beggining to show sweat drops and his face seemed stressed and panicked.

"Lucy-san, I'll be going back to the guild now. It was really thoughtful of you to let Natsu-san stay here." Wendy said with a modest smile.

" No worries Wendy. It's better for him to stay here instead of being bombarded by the whole guild when he wakes up"

Wendy smiled and took her leave.

back in the master's office.

"Master, it's a long story. Mama told me everything about Natsu-nii when Papa went out. Our family was usually happy."

"Usually?"

"Hai, like I told you it's complicated. also, when I'm done with my little 'explanation', I have a ltlle information about someone" Rose took a seat preparing herself for the long history she was about to tell.

"Don't leave a single detail out child, I want to know everything to help not only you, but also your brother. You know you're going to have to tell him one day."

"Hai"

Many years ago

(Flashback in Rose' P.O.V)

I walked outside and found nii-san training. I didn't know it then but his magic was different to mine and everyone else' that we knew. He ate fire and used fire. It was really strange to me at that age.

"Natsu-nii! let's see Papa!"

I remember that day, how carefree I used to be. "Hai!" he said he ran to me with a big grin. "Hey! you got taller in the last ten minutes!"

I grinned. I loved Natsu-nii. He was such a nice and caring big brother. He was always there for me. "Come on let's go! Papa asked us to go there around now remember?"

"Nope"

I rolled my eyes and took his hand" Nii-san come on! He wanted us to be there so that we could spend the afternoon together!"

"Okay, okay let's go. Why are you so smart? you're only two!"

"I dunno. Why can you eat fire?"

"I dunno"

"Exactly, lets go!"

We live on the edge of a thick forest and grew crops for a living selling some to the nearby village. When we got to the village Papa was there and seemed to have already packed up his stall. When he saw us he smiled and walked up to us. He, like mama was still young. Despite he and Mama being so young to have any children (27 isn't that old right?) we were one big happy family.

"Papa!" Natsu yelled at the top of his lungs as he tackled his father in a huge bear hug. I remember running to Papa, but for the first time, I ran with such speed that dust seemed to accumulate behind me. People who turned around to see what that gust of wind was from saw nothing but a dash of light. I stopped with a halt right in front of an awestruck Papa and Natsu. When the dust cleared, I saw dark marks of where I ran, and when looked closely at them, you could see a long vine of intricate roses.

"Cool that was amazing Rose!" Natsu said giving me a big hug.

"My little girl is so strong!" Papa said. I beamed at him as he picked me up and threw me in the air. I laughed with joy as he caught me and put me on his shoulder. Natsu laughed with me and took Papa's hand. Papa had a lean frame, had dark hair and dark eyes, but he was a very powerful mage.

"Papa, where are you taking us?" I asked.

"We are going to the travelling circus! It came here and we rarely havea chance to go to these kinds of things so I thought we could go!"

"For real Papa? Arigatou!" Natsu-nii said.

That day was the last day that Papa was happy. We were a poor but very happy family. We lived peacefully and enjoyed life's simple pleasures of togetherness. But then, Papa became very sick.

The next day I was helping Mama with packing a picnic for Natsu's birthday. We had all the presents ready in the basket. Papa was out looking for a good spot in the forest for our picnic. Natsu was outside training again.

"Mama, Natsu-nii is working really hard!"

"He sure is honey" Mama said with a smile. I looked at her closely. Her pink hair was wavy and flowed down to her back. It was long and beautiful. Her golden eyes behind her glasses was warm unless of course she was angry, which her eyes would change into all sorts of colors that would pierce into your soul. She had a perfect posture and a beautiful body. But what Rose made her really happy was her Mama's kindness

"Mama?"

"Yes sweetie?"

"No one knows what kind of magic Natsu-nii has. But what about me? It's the same as yours but, still, it has no type, no history, not even a name! so what is it?"

"Well it just became honey. You know you're smart. Since we are the only people that has this magic type, then you name it."

"Really mama?"

Mama smiled and picked me up, she nuzzled my nose and gave me a hug "Of course honey"

"Hmm"

"Not now honey, it looks like Papa is making his way back."

"Hai~!"

Mama took the basket and we walked outside. Natsu-nii took Papa's hand, I took Natsu-nii's other hand, Mama took my hand as well. From behind, we would look like the perfect family.

"Wow! Papa this is a perfect spot! Arigatou!" Natsu-nii thanked his dad as he gave Papa a big hug.

"Happy Birthaday Natsu!" Papa said and we all sat down. The clearing was beautiful. There was a small stream that was on the left. The grass was lush and soft. There were trees that surrounded the whole area. It was the size of about a small bedroom. There was also a small little track that led into another much larger clearing.

"How did you find this sweet-heart?" Mama asked as she kissed Papa on the cheek.

"Only the best for our kids." Papa answered with a shrug. What he said didn't seem to fit his appearance. But then again, his whole personality was didn't suit his appearance.

"Ngaaw! Papa! You're so nice!" I said happily as I ran to him and gave him a hug.

After all the hugs we sat down and started to eat. We laughed, we sang Happy Birthday for Natsu as he blew his candles on Mama's special homemade cake.

But on the way back to our house, a man with a black cloak with a hood covering his face.

"Hmm... What a powerful family of mages." The man said. His voice was creepy. I was hiding behind Papa clutching onto his pants. He was preparing for any kind of attack. Mama had her hand holding her glasses. Natsu-nii had his hand lit up (but so far, that's all he could do. Punch with fire).

"Hmm, powerful, indeed. Especially you, little girl" He bent down to see my face.

"You are very powerful. Yes, You will become handy"

"Papa, I'm scared." I whispered.

"You leave her alone!" Papa warned.

"Hm, as if" the man said. He outstretched his hand and a black substance forced my family down to their knees. All of them, except for me.

"Papa! mama! Natsu-nii! What's happening?" I asked. I remember shaking in fear, tears were forming in my eyes.

"My, my you are very strong little girl indeed. To be able to withstand my magical force. You will be my little puppet."

"NO! YOU OLD MAN GET AWAY FROM ME!" I yelled my lungs out and knelt down and tried to help Mama and Papa get up whilst Natsu-nii was almost able to get a hold of himself and was almost standing up.

"Hmm the boy is very strong as well. Not as strong but still very valuable. I'll be taking your daughter if you don't mind. The boy well, I'll come back when he's stronger."

Papa snapped and he stood up. "You will not be taking me children. Not today not ever."

"Then I'll kill you then take your children. Your wife too maybe. She's quite a looker."

Papa was enraged. I've never felt Papa's complete magic power .But it was huge.

"You masked your magic power? I guess you are not as weak as you seem."The man said.

Papa's eyes became a menacing red.

"Get out of my way or you'll suffer the consequences." The man said.

"Never!"

The man outstretched his hand and instead of going toPapa, the black substance turned to me.

"You little girl will become the darkest mage in the world, and you will be my PUPPET" The man Cackled. Papa became desperate to save me and he jumped in front of me. The substance entered his body and Papa screamed with pain.

"NO! I can only do that once! You ruined everything!" The man said and he ran away and disappeared into the

"NO! I can only do that once! You ruined everything!" The man said and he ran away and disappeared into the

"PAPA!"

After that day, the man disappeared.

The next day started somewhat normal.

"Natsu, I'm so sorry about yesterday." Mama apologized to Natsu. He was picking at his 'spicy pancakes' which was really out of personality from him.

"It's okay, Mama, it's not your fault."

Papa walked in and sat down. "Papa are you okay?" I asked. I walked up to him and gave him a hug.

"I'm okay it just I-" Papa stopped. He began to sweat and scream in pain. The black substance started

"It's okay, Mama, it's not your fault."

Papa walked in and sat down. "Papa are you okay?" I asked. I walked up to him and gave him a hug.

"I'm okay it just I-" Papa stopped. He began to sweat and scream in pain. The black substance started to come out of his body and enveloped him. He was shaking uncontrollably.

"Papa!"

The substance soon subsided but Papa was smiling menacingly. He looked to Natsu-nii who was standing next to Mama in fear.

"You. You're the one who will kill me!" Papa laughed like a maniac as he pointed to Natsu-nii. His eyes became wide. "I'm gonna have to kill you little boy" And he walked up shaking and twitching. "But you'll suffer first" He went to the fire place and he took the fireplace poker and looked to Natsu with a twisted smile.

"Time to suffer" he hissed and he began hitting Natsu-nii's back "YOU STUPID BOY!"

"PAPA! PAPA PLEASE STOP! PLEASE!" I begged. I was tugging at his shirt.

Natsu-nii was now in a crouched position and was wailing.

Mama was frozen in shock. But she soon shook her head and walked up to Papa.

"This dark magic is cursing you. SNAP OUT OF IT!"

"STUPID BOY STUPID BOY!" Papa seemed to not hear or feel us. He just kept hitting Natsu.

Mama was getting scared. So she gathered her magical strength into her hand. She pulled the collar of Papa and she threw him out of the door. She went outside to 'deal' with him. I helped natsu-nii.

"Natsu-nii" I sniffed."are you okay?"

"Rose. You're smart. and strong. Why do I have to kill Papa? I don't want to kill him. I'm too stupid."

"Natsu-nii, Papa didn't say that. The scary old man did. The old man is controlling Papa remember? That could've been me remember?"

"Hai" Natsu-nii turned to me. " Rosie, my back, it hurts!" Natsu-nii began to break down. I remember how scared I was. Natsu-nii only called me Rosie when he was extremely happy or extremely hurt.

"I'll take a look at it okay?"

I carefully helped him take off his shirt and looked at his back. I couldn't look at it properly though. At the sight I my eyes were full of shocked tears. Deep cuts were opening and the blood covered his whole back.

"Natsu-nii, you need help."

"Don't worry Rosie. I'm gonna live. You'll see."

"Natsu-nii, it's early in the morning. You don't know what's going to happen the rest of the day, for the rest of your life!"

"Silly Rosie. You're two years old. Today for you is all that matters. You don't need to be smart all the time."

I remember hugging Natsu -nii. Crying into his shoulder. "Why couldn't I be stupid like you Natsu-nii!"

"Hey! For a four year old I'm pretty smart!"

I laughed. I loved Natsu-nii. But when I put Natsu's bandages on and we walked outside, we saw Mama's dead body. And Papa was no where to be found.

"Mama"

I began crying, Natsu ran to Mama and tried to wake her up, not accepting the fact that Mama was gone.

"Mama! wake up!" Natsu cried. His eyes full of tears, he was screaming at one point.

"Mama. she's gone."

We looked at eachother with sad eyes. We were young orphans from that point onwards.

"Let's bury her. At that small clearing, the last place we laughed as a family." Natsu-nii said.

We carried her together. We may have been young, but we were stronger than most adult mages , so we were able to get there easily. Natsu-nii took a shovel and began digging. We placed Mama in and buried her perfect body.

I also remembered how Natsu-nii reacted when something reminded him of Papa. I remember he would be close to throwing up, and when he did, it was not vomit, but he threw up blood.

We visited her grave everyday. We didn't tell anyone about her passing. One day, we decided to plant some flowers on her grave. We even made our own clay from some of the stuff in our kitchen and made her a tombstone. We put our handprint on it. and wrote Mama's name on it.

The stone read

Ignatia Jade

Forever Our Mama

Forever Loved

We went to that spot everyday. We talked to her, laughed with her. We were always happy with her.

One day we were on our way to that spot. It was the middle of a huge storm. But we didn't care. We huddled up close together. Natsu-nii was warm so I didn't get cold. But the wind was strong. Leaves and tree branches were being blown everywhere. Natsu-nii held close to me, but a large tree branch did what none of us thought would happen. It spun in the air and hit me in the stomach. I flew into the deep forest and rolled down a hill. I was separated from Natsu-nii. I woke up who knows how long after the storm was over. So I walked aimlessly up the hill only to find more trees, looking exactly the same from every angle. I was lost. I never found Natsu-nii. So I kept walking, hoping that I might run into him or into Mama's clearing, or find our house. But I walked and only found Master Makarov.

End of Flashback

Normal POV

"So Natu's true last name is Jade?"

"Yeah, well, He's a Dragneel now."

"Okay, Your mother's name was Ignatia. What was your Father's name. Whatever happened to him?"

"Well, when I left Fairy Tail I learnt a lot about Papa. I found him even. And found out everything. Which is what I was going to tell you."

"Papa created a dark guild. He became very powerful. He lost almost all memories of his famliy. He only remembers that he was once happy and that his son is destined to kill him. He became peaceful at on stage and was at a point where he just wanted to die. He was suicidal. But the black substance kept him alive. In fact, I believe Natsu-nii has even encountered Papa before."

Master's eyes widened. He didn't like where this was going.

"Papa, somehow was able to travel through time, changing our is alsothe dark guild that waged war on Fairy Tail, Master. I knew all along. I'm sorry."

"But Rose-chan, I never even met the Master of Black Blood. He was always out"

"Well, after his peaceful state, he made Black Blood . An army. Remember how I said Natsu-nii met him once before?"

"Hai" Master answered gravely.

"Natsu-nii met him at Tenrou Island, during his peaceful state, his suicidal state."

"You don't mean"

"Papa is

Back at Lucy's house

Natsu soon woke up. His head hurt but otherwise he was okay. The scars somehow faded He was up and going. But Lucy noticed something.

"Natsu? are you sure you're okay!"

"Yeah, why?"

"Because you keep avoiding eye contact with me, and you're smiles aren't as smiley as they usually are"

"My smile isn't smiley?"

"Hai.."

It was around this time Natsu was about to say something when he sniffed. "Is Levy and Lisanna coming?"

"No why-" Lucy stopped midsentence. She knew what they where doing. Lucy walked up to her window and saw the top of wooden ladder. She scowled as she pushed the top and laughed with satisfaction as she heard the screams of her friends.

"Luce you're really weird you know." Natsu said as he stuffed his face with food that came from the kitchen.

"Natsu, slow eating for now, you're gonna hurt yourself again."

"Whatever" and he continued to stuff his face happily, like the day was normal.

"Let's go back to the guild if you're fine then" Lucy said a little bit annoyed.

"Nah I'd rather spend time with you! " Natsu slipped. THere was a really awkward silence then.

crap, I slipped! Natsu thought.

"What did you say Natsu?"

"I said uh, Nah, I'd rather um eat thai food?"

"Oh, okay then lets go" Lucy grabbed her wallet and they both walked out. The atmosphere around them was thick with awkwardness.

So they ate thai food that night in silence and went to the guild. Lucy sat with Rose, Lisanna, Levy, Juvia, MiraJane and Cana.

Natsu sat with Gray, Romeo, Wendy, Carla, Gajeel, and Happy.

Lucy's group

"Rose-chan, I'm sorry for accusing you!" Lucy said with her hand behind her head.

"No worries Lucy-chan!"

Lucy smiled and looked to the faces of the girls. She narrowed her eyes. " Why are you guys smiling at me"

"Well, we want to know what you did with Natsu-san..." Rose said quietly.

"Wha?"

"Come on Lucy we ALL know about you and Natsu." Levy laughed uncomfortably.

"Levy! You told them!"

"It slipped out I'm sorry!"

"I think it's cute!" Rose squeaked.

"Rose-chan, I think he likes you instead of me though."

Rose almost choked. Him liking her in that kind of way. He's literally her brother.

"Um maybe not!" Rose said waving her hand around

"well you sure are a looker." Cana slurred, just before she passed out and fell of her chair.

"Back to the subject, Lucy what did you do after you let us fall down?" Lisanna asked with large curiosity.

"Nothing, we just ate Thai food. That was it."

"Well did you guys say anything? I mean surely Natsu would have spoken while he ate. That's his nature!" said Mira.

"Well we didn't say anything because he kind of said that..."

"Said what?" The girls all loomed over Lucy.

"He said he'd rather spend time with me, but I didn't know what he meant by that and then we were both kind of silent afterwards. When I asked him again what he just said he said he wanted Thai food, so I must've been thinking things okay?"

The girls were silent for a while.

"Juvia thinks... That she doesn't have to worry that Lucy is a love rival for Gray-sama."

And all the girls gave her a creepy smile and walked away. Rose, though stayed there. She wanted to become close to this girl. The girl that her brother might have an interest on.

Okay so what do you think? I dunno how many mistakes are in there, I always miss them no matter how many times i proofread it so sorry for that.

Anyways have Happy Days!

:)
