HI EVERYBODY! I'm glad to say I took less time to write the third chapter than the previous one! And...it's longer by 300 words!

As usual, I don't own FT.

And reviews are always appreciated.


-Natsu...

This girl who called my name, she was familiar. Everything about her reminded me of someone, but I didn't know who. It was very frustrating because I could see in her eyes that she knew me. She had a caring look, like Mirajane when she looks at Lisanna. She was clearly holding back her tears and, for an unknown reason, I was too. I felt strangely emotional and it was hard to look at the girl without crying. Suddenly, she turned around and got back to her conversation with the others. Maybe she wanted to pretend nothing just happened? Even though she called my name? Well, it wasn't loud enough for the others to hear, but I did. And I wanted to know why. But that would wait, since she apparently didn't want to talk about it. I went to Mirajane, who was at the bar.

-Hey Mira, the mission was done with no arm.

-So, you actually got the whole recompense for once?!

-Yes... You know, you don't have to say it like it's a miracle.

She looked at me with a "But it's one!" look and turned around to get me a glass of water.

-Anyways, you saw the new girl didn't you?

-Yeah, barely, I said as I drank.

-She's a fire user. Everyone thought you were playing a prank on us.

-Seriously, even I wouldn't do such a lame joke.

-Hey! Why don't you go present yourself? Her name's Firey.

-I will...Wait, did you just say "Firey"?

She nodded. Now I knew where I saw her. Firey was the only one, except me, to have seen Igneel. She was his second apprentice and I was the one who gave her that name. Until now, I thought she died when the dragons left. Still shocked, I grabbed her by the arm and took her outside.

-I-Is there something I can do for you?

Something she can do for me? Not anymore, not after so long. Not after so much years passed to wait for her to come and find me. I suddenly felt really pissed of.

-Don't play dumb. Why did you come here?

-What do you mean?

-I thought you were dead! If you were alive, where were you? WHY DIDN'T YOU COME BACK?

She looked at the ground, quietly. I could see tears slowly falling on her cheeks. That only made me more angry. What right does she have to cry? I should be the one to do so!

-I have no excuses. I should have looked for you and I know it. I can only apologize. I'm sorry Natsu...

That was the last straw.

-DON'T SAY SORRY! JUST LEAVE ALREADY! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU ANYMORE! I exploded.

Bitting her lips, she turned around and walked away from the guild as Gajeel and Wendy came running. They probably heard my screams thanks to their dragon slayers' senses. They came closer to me.

-Natsu-san, do you know Firey-san? Asked the timid girl.

-She was crying you know. I could smell it. Was that really what you wanted to tell her? Continued the metal user.

I was already feeling guilty. I went way too far and I knew it. I never wanted to make her cry, neither did I wanted her to leave. She was the only woman, or almost, I didn't want to hurt. But I was overwhelmed by the feeling of betrayal I had since she disappeared.

-Tell us. I think I already know what's going on, but I need confirmation.

-Gajeel-san? What do you mean?

-Natsu's smell is very similar to that girl's. There is only one reason two people have such an identical smell and that is being from the same family.

Wendy looked at me with round eyes and looked towards the way Firey left.

-So...She's Natsu-san's cousin?

They both waited for my answer. I understood them, it was very rare for a dragon slayer to have family members still alive. I was probably the only one.

-She's...my twin sister...

-What?!

-That's impossible dude! That would mean she's...

-You're right Metal Freak, she's the second dragon slayer of fire.

It was a shock to them. It never occurred to them that there could be two dragon slayers of the same element. But for me, it was normal. I grew up knowing it's a possibility.

-Why didn't you tell anyone about her? Don't you trust us?

-That's not it Wendy...I just didn't want to remember it. I always thought she died. But now, knowing that she was alive, I can only be mad at her for leaving without any notice and never coming back. She abandoned me!

-Is that really it? I had the feeling you wanted to stop her when she left. Plus, the Master will be mad when he hears about what just happened.

-I...can't deny that.

-Then go. Now, before I get really mad at you for screaming at your only family members.

I nodded an ran towards her smell. It was pretty difficult since her smell was similar to mine, but it was doable. I caught back to her in a nearby park, sitting under a giant tree. She was looking at the sky, tears falling down her cheeks. She really changed during all these years. She was now shorter than me and her hair was much longer. She used to wear it short so it was really strange. The only thing that didn't change was her eyes. They still had a spark of life in them and I was glad about it. Her eyes were the thing I preferred about her.

-I'm sorry. I shouldn't have screamed at you like that.

Surprised, she wiped her tears and got up. I came closer.

-I...I was shocked to see you were still alive. I wondered why you left me and I lost it. I'm sorry...

-But you were right. I didn't come back and I abandoned you in the moment you needed me the most.

-Why? I don't care about why you left anymore, but why didn't you look for me? Why didn't you care?

-Don't say that! I never stopped caring about you!

-Then where were you?

She looked down and I saw her lips moving.

-You know, I don't read on lips. Say it aloud.

-I looked for you. I knew you were safe in Fairy Tail since I disappeared. But I couldn't go. It had been so long since I last saw you. Freezy said it was a possibility you would forget me during training and I couldn't bring myself to face you. I was afraid you'd say "Who are you exactly?" and I pushed back the moment we would meet again. Ever since Freezy and Igneel disappeared, I was afraid I'd lost you too. I wanted to avoid it, so I never came. I'm sorry.

This was the reason she left me? She was afraid I didn't remember her? I would never forget her! But, if I was in her place, I would've done the same thing. Now knowing her feelings, I was no longer angry. I was only extremely happy she was alive and well. I hugged her.

-It's okay...Now, you're here. That's all that matters. I don't want you to leave. Stay here, at the guild. You can live at Fairy Hills or find an apartment like Luce or live with me. Do whatever you want, I'll help you.

I smelled water and salt. She was crying again. But this time, I was too. I finally had my sister back. This was the best day ever...for the moment. We never know what could happen. I could get married to Luce, then that would be the best day ever. Wait...WHAT? I would be happy to marry Lucy? Why? What the fuck?

-Natsu...I can't breathe.

-Oh! Sorry!

Anyways, let's forget that for today. I'll ask Gajeel about it when I have time. For the moment, I'll just enjoy knowing the truth about Firey's disappearance.

And I was right to. Because what awaited us, was nothing near pleasant...


So, what do you think about this new chapter? It's only Natsu'S POV this time, how do you find it? Should I do it again or it's better with multiple POVs?

Now, to the reviews answers:

Rabbitleap: Thanks, I will!
