Chapter 19: Point of Insanity

"That psycho-dragon is the old hag's twin?" Natsu, who recovered from the shock faster than the others couldn't help but smirk. He knew they were family. Their smell gave it away.

"Old hag?" asked Metalicana, sincerely perplexed.

The pink-haired man silently watched as understanding spread over the Sky dragon's face and then, he crossed his arms over his chest and turned to the younger of the two sisters. "Your little Queen, of course."

Metalicana growled, offended on behalf of her beloved sister. "How dare you make fun of your saviour!"

"Saviour? Hardly. If she hadn't interfered, I would have beaten crap out of Acnologia! But, no, she just HAD to protect her beloved brother, didn't she?"

Erza stomped over to the fire dragon slayer, gripped him by his scarf and rose him to air. "Natsu, I swear if you don't shut up, I'll make sure you will never speak another word." hissed the Titania venomously.

Natsu's glaring toned down a bit as he heard the threat, until any sign of defiance left his features. He nodded to the red haired mage, trying to make it look apologetic at the same time.

After a while, Erza put her teammate down, taking a step back to give him some space.

Gray, who was deep inside his own thought thorough the whole scene, stepped up to speak. "So, let me get this straight. Luciana, Queen of Dragons, is Acnologia's sister."

"That's what I said." groaned Grandine, regretting even starting the topic.

"But from what I could see yesterday, they do not cooperate. Why? Is Acnologia not one of you?"

The two dragons looked at each other. "What are we going to do now?" Metalicana's helplessness washed over the green-eyed dragon. "There is no way to stop this now. We can only hope this doesn't turn into a catastrophe."

The Iron dragon sighed, gave Grandine one last doubtful look and started the storytelling.

"Acnologia is not one of us. Not anymore, that is. He betrayed us 1440 years ago."

"When he attacked the capital of Fiore." It was not a question, so Grandine graciously ignored the Ice mage's tactless statement and continued.

"He was one of the greatest dragons of all cycles, his name famous among all of our race."

Natsu couldn't help himself. He rolled his eyes at the speech the dragon was giving them. Almost like reciting a book about one of the Saints.

Upon seeing the action, Metalicana sighed and motioned for her sister to stop.

"What Grandine here is trying to tell you is that Acnologia used to be one of the good guys. In fact, he was chosen to become the King of Dragons in this cycle."

"But isn't Luciana the Queen?" asked Levy, who had a vague idea of what happened.

"Yes she is. But she was the last choice. Well, at least until her twin went insane shortly before the coronation and killed thousands of humans."

"He went insane? Just like that?" piped in Jet and Droy, who were reluctant to make their presence known more than necessary. Dragons made them very nervous.

Metalicana's eyes darkened as she was once again reliving events of that day, leaving her sister to answer.

"The only one who knows the truth is Luciana."
