Chapter 21: Shocking Fact

Bright sunlight flowed in the cracks of the pink haired man's fingers as he lifts his hands to the sun. The sun's rays made jail bars like shadows on his face. His mind wanders as the sun kept beaming; he frowned slightly and pulled away his hand, making his eyes blinded by the brightness.

Everything felt wrong. The setting was too beautiful to be real. Maybe he's back in heaven, where the angels soar with harps and all that crap. He been there, but it only felt like a second. As he tried to remember what happened in the clouds, his mind dissolved like a mist. Heaven's harsh with the mind Natsu thought to himself. But if he was in heaven right now, he would be disappointed since there was no specific blonde angel guiding his way to eternal rest. Even if he was back in the skies, the atmosphere felt unsafe and unbalanced.

Nothing was wrong with him, no scratches, no bruises, no broken bones… Everything was fine! Then why did he still feel like something is sneaking up on him? He glanced behind slightly, only to see nothing but the old path that he had walked on. Was it because he fell on his head during the fall? Or probably from the anger from seeing the remains of little black wing that came from a tattoo? He forgot. Natsu tried so hard to take away the remaining black trace off. He even tried washing it off by a river bend! Nothing can take the damn thing away!

The tattoo mark didn't hurt him at all but he still wanted it off, that thing reminded him of horrible memories. His eyebrows scrunched up together in thought, what horrible memories?

And what memories?

He has no recollection of anything that happened before. The only thing he can remember is his name. And from time to time, he, assumes, see pieces of his past and a blonde girl, who was the only part he has that wasn't head aching in the process. A princess with big brown eyes and warm smile. She was important to him he thinks. Were his missing memories the things that were troubling him?

He stared at forearm that bared the dark speck, as if it would tell him what he was forgetting but unfortunately dots can't talk. Then when he looks at it, the splotch turned into a full dragon. Maybe it was his imagination, but the small tattoo looked like it got bigger. He frowned again, this time deeper. He must be hallucinating…He walked down the road, kicking some pebbles down the old dusty ground. This brought back many memories as he pictured two children in their heads. What were their names again? Damn it! Heaven is screwing with his mind! The pink haired man sighed and kept walking. He was right, something felt wrong. He didn't feel at whole…He needs help, somebody needs to help him. He has to find them. He has to go back where it all started. He needs to return to Fairy Tail…

(A/n I'm still thinking of a name and btw the name Grimore heart is going to be used as something else) THE MUHAHAHA PLACE… (sorry…)

"Soooo bored…" The man complained loudly. He laid his head onto the mahogany table as stared at the porcelain plate filled with chocolate chip cookies, with the chips still gooey. The smell was infuriating to the man and it made him think of warm thoughts which he scrunched his eyebrows in response. This is how an assassin spends on their free time…He wonders when he will kill himself of boredom. Another man with wild blonde hair and startling red eyes smirked at him in amusement. The blonde smiled widely to show many pointy teeth. That's when the man knew he enjoyed his complaints.

"Where's Master Hades?" The bored man said and opened his eyelids to reveal a gold tinted color in his eyes. It reflected everything it saw like a mirror and made the sight turned into a rich color of gold, making it more mysterious. The wild looking blonde smirked again but added a slight chuckle.

"He's on some business~" He said with an obvious sarcastic tone in his voice and he said it slowly as if to torment the man. The bored man's head whipped up from the table and pouted slightly at him.

"You don't have to censor it for me Zancrow-san!" The man cried out as Zancrow laughed again, this time much louder that sounded like a guffaw. Yep, he was going to kill himself today…

"Sorry Hiro but Master Hades's orders" The blonde grabbed a cookie from the plate. (A/N the guy's name revealed!) "He told me not to tell you what mission he has now so you won't follow him" Zancrow finishes as he made a loud crunch as he chewed his cookie. 'Hiro' made a slight snort, his side of his cheek on the cold wood.

"Party pooper…" Hiro muttered under his breath but due to the blonde's enhanced hearing, Zancrow decided to ignore his comment. Instead the red eyed man grabbed a few more cookies and started to wolf them down.

"Hiro…" Zancrow muttered. Hid blond eyebrows scrunched up in thought. The bored man looked up at the mention of his name and raised an eyebrow.

What's the matter?" Hiro asked, moving his head slightly to look at the man but the blonde still had a scrunched up expression upon his features.

"It's just that, the name 'Hiro' doesn't fit you" He says.

"Gee, thanks…" Hiro grumbles. "What a way to hit me when I'm down…" Zancrow snorted and grabbed some more cookies with his tan hands. Man can he eat! One cookie after another, in a few minutes, he finished the plate before he spoke again. Nothing, not even crumbs, were found on that porcelain plate.

"No, I was just wondering why did you pick that name?" Zancrow said, making a few cookies crumbs fall from his cheeks onto the table. Hiro's gold eyes can see the crumbs fall like it was in slow motion; he can see every flutter of a bird's wings, including a human's heart beating in one's chest…

"Master Hades chose this name for me since I don't know my real one. He wanted it to be something ironic or something…To make me more innocent like that" Hiro murmured as he laid face down onto the wood. "Why you ask?" his voice muffled by the table, which caused vibrations. Zancrow frowned slightly.

"You do know you're not a hero?"

Hiro sighed, clearly annoyed. He wanted to give a blonde a slap to his head. All those death, slaughter and sorrow were all caused by him, Hiro! Would he be called a hero after that?! Zancrow's constant bickering had made him have a slight migraine. His head released itself from the coldness of the table, to give the blonde a slightly crazed smile that was etched onto his face.

"Nooo, really? The answer is obviously laid in the facts; I bring an early death to others and slaughter everyone's family, so does that make me superman?" Hiro's voice turned bitter cold. "I'm a professional assassin. I can kill anyone I please. I can kill anyone Master Hades wants me to. I can even kill anyone who angers me" Hiro said with pure innocence in his voice. It was like a baby joined the mafia or something. Yep, the name "Hiro" definitely adds a layer of purity in the man's exposure. The gold-eyed man turned to Zancrow, with a genuine warm smile on his face.

"Including you"

Unlike a normal person who would be freaked out by someone saying that they can kill you any time anywhere, Zancrow just gave a pointy grin as if they were simply speaking trash talk. Hiro crazed smile suddenly melted into a playful grin a few minutes later indicating it was just a sarcastic argument. No biggie. Even though Zancrow can annoy the hell out of him sometimes, the gold eyed man would say that the blonde was the closest person in this place, well including…-

Speaking of the devil, a girl with short pink hair came in, holding a couple of magic scrolls in her arms and placed them on the table hard, making some crumble and some roll to the ground. The plate of the eaten cookies tattled at the impact.

"Hiro-san!" the girl shouted even though they were in close view. Hiro winced at her loudness. She also had a pout formed on her lips and her teal eyes shined with anger. Not a good day for her then…

"You know if you start screaming in front of people, it means you're getting old-" Zancrow philosophized but he was cut short by the small girl's evil look. She returned her hard gaze to the professional assassin who's clearly bored out of his mind.

"Ultear-sama told you teach me today!" She shrieked in Hiro's eardrum, ignoring Zancrow's comments. The man just gave her a small nervous smile and scratched his neck. Zancrow grinned and mouthed the words 'you're in trouble~' Hiro gave the blonde an 'I'm gonna kill you later' glare.

"Sorry Meldy-chan, I kind of got busy with work so…" Hiro muttered which made it sound like an excuse. That only made the pink haired girl fume more.

"You could've taken me with you!" She says, making the Hiro look away from her puny face, annoyed. "I need to learn how to take assassin jobs from now on! Master Hades finally lets me do something different than working in the lab and he said you're the best assassin in this place! So you-" Her voice was interrupted by a big tan hand that was placed onto her pink locks. Hiro smiled playfully and leaned in until his and Meldy's foreheads touched. The pink haired man smiled as his gold eyes met the small girl's teal ones.

"If you want to go to a mission with me, you will have to be patient" Hiro mumbled softly, making the girl surprised but not for long. She returned to her stone hard glare which felt like it can pierce glass.

"Why not now!?" She asked. That made Hiro smile mischievously which raised the pink haired girl's suspicions further.

"Well, if you don't wait, that special something won't come up…" Hiro said. Meldy gave a small pout at his statement but her pink eyebrows knitted together in thought.

"What special thing?" Meldy asked with obvious curiosity in her voice which made Hiro grinned wider until it stretched. Once again, that crazed look appeared in his face again. Hiro got up from his chair and began lifted his hands slightly, like a bird or dragon about to take flight.

"The mission Master Hades now assigned me, involves 5 dragon slayers…~" Hiro trailed off and smiled bigger if that was possible. The pink haired girl stood dumbfounded as the gold eyed man lifted his hands up in almost a prayer. Zancrow sighed deeply as if he knew what Hiro was going to say next, like he knew about Hiro's obsession… But he looked amused. Little plumes of black fire danced in the blonde's fingertips as he grinned also maliciously. Meldy became more surprised when Hiro looked at her abruptly. His eyes glowed a luminescent color and were in slits. The look that the man gave her, made her feel like she's was Hiro's next victim. But the little girl waited patiently for his answer despite his strange expression of his features. Hiro finally smiled at her innocently and said:

"So more dragon slayers means more of their beautiful blood caked in my fingertips and hands". His gold eyes flickered with anticipation.

A/N Back with the gang…

It was a nice day…

Sandwiches, snacks, lemonade. Lucy wondered how Erza knew that they were going to have a picnic since she seemed to have all the supplies. Basket, checkered blanket and all! But it wasn't like the blonde disagreed with that or anything! It was fun and all and everything was fine until a big boar tore its way to their food.

It was the size of a giant and it had humongous tusks like a mammoth. The blonde thought the gang didn't seem to notice it. They seemed to be engrossed in the food, especially Erza who indulged herself in a creamy cheesecake. Lucy was the first to notice it and almost immediately she whipped out her keys. Oh, how much she missed them!

"Gate of the water bearer, I open thee! Aquarius!" The blonde shouted as she flicked a gold key in a swift motion. A doorbell chime rings and a long blue haired mermaid appeared in the river beside them. She held a vase and she had an annoyed expression on her face she looked at the blonde.

"What do you want now?" The mermaid asked irritatingly, making the blonde sweat dropped. Lucy pouted a little at her spirit's attitude.

"Please push that pig away, Aquarius!" Lucy said which she received a *tsk* from her celestial spirit in a response but either way, the mermaid took out her a light blue vase and screamed:

"GOOOO TO HELL!"

A huge wave, the size of a tsunami arose from the river and began to douse the pig with multiple sharp jets of water. The boar made a huge snort of protest but it was swept away finally in a strong current of the river. Everything was safe but unfortunately, the group's picnic hadn't been spared…The food was soaked and as well as their clothing.

"Aquarius! You don't have to-" Lucy started angrily.

"DON'T you ever summon me when there is a boar in my waters or I will KILL you!" Aquarius screamed at the blonde as she waved a pale finger at her accusingly. Her long blue hair swished back and forth like the river's waves.

"s-sorry…" the blonde apologized as the mermaid smirked at her. But that smile was replaced with a small frown. The blonde saw some worry deep inside Aquarius's blue eyes. Was Aquarius, the most Lucy hater in the celestial world, is concerned about her? Is everyone worried about her?! Lucy gave her a warm smile to erase their worries which made the blue haired girl cringed.

"Summon me when you have real trouble. Now I have a date with my boyfriend" The blue haired girl mumbled as she echoed the word 'boyfriend'. Lucy pouted slightly but when the mermaid vanished, she swore she saw Aquarius's mouth curve into a small smile. The blonde is confused but then she slowly started to laugh. Yeah, she really loved her keys.

"Lucy…" A weak voice called behind her. As Lucy turned around, she suddenly knew she wished she hadn't. Behind her, was her washed up nakama with strange new hairdos and drenched clothes. Erza had a soggy strawberry cheesecake in her hands and a droopy flower that she picked up earlier, hanging from her ear. Her mouth gaped wide open and her wet red hair plastered upon her forehead. Jellal was behind a bush and only his hand was visible. The blue haired man's head peaked up from the shrub and his hair was also everywhere by the waterworks. Next, Gray had somehow landed on a branch of a tree and had lost his clothes in the waves. Lucy thinks he was unconscious… Gajeel was buffeted by sandwiches so his face wasn't seen because of the mess. Wendy was flat on her back while the little kids are sprawled out everywhere.

"L-Lucy…" The voice said again, Lucy flinched since the voice can from the red haired demon herself. Erza trembled as she stared at her dripping cake while Jellal finally got up from the plant. That's when the blonde noticed that Erza wasn't mad. She was trembling with sadness which seemed worse than her being angry. The red head picked the droopy flower and her mouth opened up and down like a fish, as a petal dropped from its stem.

"I-I know you saved us…but did you really have to w-wash away our picnic…?"Erza asked as some tears appeared at the corners of her eyes. Lucy gave the red head a nervous laugh as she backed away. She was really going to get it now…

Back with evil place… (A/N Seriously, I need to come up with a name… Oh well, its gonna be called Evil place XD)

"Welcome back Hades-sama" A black haired woman said. She wore a tight jumpsuit and has a freshly applied blood red lipstick on her lips. She bowed down politely as the old man took off his cloak that was stained with fresh blood.

"How was your mission, Hades-sama?" the woman asked as she took the stained cloth from Hades. The old man grunted as he took off his armor that seemed to weigh the old man down.

"I didn't find him" Hades answered as the woman bowed again, making some ripples in her jumpsuit. She followed the old man as he pushed the large doors open.

"Hiro-san has been complaining again. He's growing impatient" She told Hades. The old man scoffed and rubbed his aching shoulders. He readjusted his black eye patch and pushed open another pair of doors until they were outside.

"He won't have to wait any longer Ultear-chan. Since we'll be making our move soon" Hades says gruffly as he stared at the humongous object in front of them. Ultear smiled and suddenly a lacrima orb appeared in her hands, levitating.

"Hiro-san would be the first step of our plan. I already told him what to do. After he finishes, we will attack my old guild until Makarov sees it crumbles with his old eyes" The old man said as a few men with black cloaks uncovered the blimp to reveal a symbol. The pair felt a sudden gush of wind which made their hair and clothes wave in the air.

"Grimiore Heart, that's what we will be called, Ultear-chan" Hades said the woman as the slight gust died down.

"Why that particular name, Hades-sama?" The dark haired woman asked as two lacrimas suddenly appeared, one cracked but then it fixed itself. The old man turned to the dark haired woman as her floating lacrimas settled down on each of her palms.

"It's because our hearts are tainted with darkness cause by others" Hades answered gruffly and his old hand smoothed out his clothing as Ultear smiled at its meaning. Her lacrimas disappeared and entered a space that wasn't seen. She walked along side with the old man until the blimp was right up close.

"Call Zancrow and Meldy. We only need them for this mission" The old man commanded as a long staircase appeared to bring the master up to the top. He started his journey up step by step, leaving the woman who stood still at the bottom.

"What about Hiro?" Ultear asked wondrously. The master smiled and turned back once he reached the top of the stairs. He reencounters the things that happened before. The sudden wind from that came out of nowhere…Obviously it was him.

"Oh, he overheard us. He's already left" Hades says casually. "The mission has begun"
