Chapter 6: Guidance
The kids are in shock to see such a sight. Right in front in them is a girl in a crystal. "This is the Lumen Histoire. In simple words; Fairy Heart." Gildarts tells them. "Is that girl Mavis Vermillion? The founder and first master?" Lucy asks him in a calmer expression after getting over her shock. "Yes." Gildarts nods and places his right hand onto the crystal. Upon impact, the emblem on his chest glow into a silvery color. "Master Mavis, we need your assistance." Gildarts tells the crystal telepathically. Soon the crystal glows into a golden color in respond. Gildarts backs away from the object.
Natsu, Lucy, Happy and Cana couldn't believe what's happening in front of them. As such, they keep their faces of amazement. Out comes the soul of the girl out of the crystal. Instead of having her long hair covering her body, she is fully clothed. But the only thing missing is there isn't footwear on her feet. As such she's barefooted. Other than no shoes, she does were a pink layered robe with a red ribbon tied in a bow around her neck. Around the chest are three blue diamond patterns with two blue triangles above. Each series of these is outlined in a hot pink. She wears wing-like adornments around her ears and small hoop earrings. The sleeves are loose and long towards her wrist. She has a ribbon tied around the neck line of the dress. Her eyes are green without the irises. Her light blonde hair is long enough to reach where the hem of the dress is. The one strand of her hair stands out upward. Though her appearance is a baffling sight. She looks around the age of thirteen. "Gildarts Clive." Her cute voice speaks to the man. "What can I help you with?" She smiles up to him.
Gildarts steps aside to let Natsu step up towards the girl. Mavis keeps her smile, knowing fully well that it's Natsu who wants to speak to her. Natsu looks down to her. "Master Mavis. Do you know about the invasion of Tartaros?" He asks her first. Mavis frowns a little. "Yes. When the activation of Face was about to fall upon us, the dragons came out of you, Wendy, Gajeel, Sting and Rogue to destroy the statues them. We should be grateful that they prevented the Faces' ability to zap away our magic. If they didn't arrive, I'd be Fairy Tail's last resort to do so." Mavis explains to them. Natsu frowns when the girl mention about the dragons. "And you want to know where the Dragons have gone to afterwards?" Mavis assumes Natsu's reason.
Natsu nods. He sits down indian style. "Yeah, even since Igneel came out of my body. I never though that it was a point in time to come out of nowhere to fight Acnologia. We were grateful that you saved us on Tenrou Island when that dragon attacked." Mavis nods, encouraging him to continue on. "But Igneel was killed by that dragon. Before he passed away he give me the two reasons for why they disappeared 15 years ago." Mavis smiles up to him. Just seeing the anguish from Natsu's face is still hunting him. Mavis walks up to him and places her hands onto his scarf. "You must know that there will be a time that those who have chance of living must find their ending. Some of unexceptional, some of sorrow, and even happiness. But I must admit that your training for this pass year has intrigued me." Lucy and Happy and stand behind Natsu.
Mavis then places her on finger onto Natsu's forehead. She closes her eyes and the glow from her body elopes Natsu's body. "What are you doing?" Natsu asks her. Mavis keeps her eyes closed, and smiles. "Since Igneel's soul was within you, I should be able to detect where that soul has gone to, even if he passed away." Hearing that widens Natsu's eyes. A few seconds later, the glow fades off Natsu as Mavis pulls back her hand. "But you must be ready to go to the destination." She looks at him in the eye. "What is this place?" Lucy asks her as she kneels down.
Mavis raises her hand as uses her magic to make an image. The image looks like a valley of some sort. "The place I speak isn't in this world. It's a world of its own." She said to them in a serious tone. "A world of its own? Sort of like Edolas?" Happy asks her. Mavis nods. "Yes. But it's not a place that the living can go to." She gives clue to the clue. "As in those who die go there?" Cana asks her this time. Mavis shakes her head. "Not exactly. You see when a mage dies, he or she have the right to go to Heaven. That is based on what their deeds are." She explains the good part of life. "However for those who had the soul of the dragon that went inside of the foster children has passage to get to the world where the Dragons die. This world I speak of is called Draco Orbis or Dragon World." She tells them. Everyone widen their eyes. "So in other words, Natsu could get there?" Happy asks the small blonde.
Mavis halts her hand. "I'm just giving you the information for what I know about the place. I cannot simply take you there. Natsu shouldn't be the only that knows." Natsu looks up to her. "So I should get a hold of Wendy and Gajeel?" He asks her. Mavis nods sadly. "Just the three of you are allow to go there. However, for Sting and Rogue, even though they were carrying the soul of their foster parents, they even had a dragon slayer lacrima. I'm not sure if they'll be able to go there as well." Mavis said as she begins to floats in the air. The group look up towards her. Mavis puts her hands together to begin praying. "I call upon the, for the one who can allow a soul to meet the other soul that was connected long ago to gain access to Draco Orbis." After her pray, a reddish light cover Natsu.
Natsu can feel a powerful source. He looks down to the right arm, and sees a symbol on it. The symbol of the dragon in a red color of Igneel's scales. "Natsu." Mavis speaks to the pink hair boy. Natsu looks up to her. "That mark on your arm is the only way for you to go to Draco Orbis." She explains to him. She waves her hand again to make a map appear in front of him. "That map is to help you where to go. See that big blue spot?" She asks him. Natsu looks at the new map and spots it. "Yeah. What is it?" He looks back up. "That spot is the hotspot. It was once where dragons came from." Natsu gets where this is going. "So all I have to do is get to this place?" He asks her. "Seems like it to me." Lucy agrees with. "Yes." Mavis tell them.
Natsu folds the map and puts it in the pocket. "Thanks Mavis." He smiles up to her. Mavis smiles back at him. "Best of luck, Natsu." She then disappears and returns to the crystal.
