Chapter 7: Dragon Quest
While leaving the basement, Natsu keeps on thinking about what Mavis told him. If he were to get to this spot where the dragons came from, it's obvious that maybe Wendy, the Sky Dragon Slayer, Gajeel the Iron Dragon Slayer, Sting the White Dragon Slayer, and Rogue the Shadow Dragon Slayer should know about this as well. The group makes outside with sun shining down upon them. "So Natsu…" Gildarts gets him out of his thoughts. Nastu looks up to him, "What?" He said the one word. "Do you think that you'll go there?" Gildarts asks him the obvious question. Natsu sighs, not sure on how to answer that one. "I'm pretty sure you're concerned about this." Happy flies up to him. Lucy can tell the expression as well. "It's more about conflict than concern." She comments to them.
Natsu spots a bench when they go to the South Gate Park. "I'm not really sure if I should go." He confesses to them. Gildarts doesn't looked surprised. "Well. I guess it's hard to imagine to go to a place where the dragons came from would be the only place that you're allowed to go to." He sits down by the pink haired boy. "I thought you'd be thrilled to hear about it." Cana chimes at him with a smile on her face. But it didn't work, much to her disappointment. "It's not that. It's just…I don't want to go. Not alone." Natsu explains to her. Lucy ahs. "I think I get it. Natsu gets the feeling that he shouldn't be the only one who should be going there." She tells them. Natsu only nods to agree.
Cana nods as well. "It does make sense. Natsu isn't the only Dragon Slayer that we know. We have to find our following dragon slayers to see rather or not they wanna come to." The other nod in agree. All but Natsu. "What is it?" Happy asks him. "We don't even have the slightest on where they are." He tells them. Lucy chuckles as she crossed her arms across her chest in front of Natsu. "Natsu, don't forget. While being in Crocus for a year and ever since the guild disbanded, I've worked so hard to keep track on where our friends are. From what I know so far, I found out Wendy is part of Lamia Scale. And Gajeel is part of the Magic Console." Lucy tells him to cheer him up.
Upon hearing the seriousness in her voice made him smile. As such he quickly stands up. "Well what are we waiting for? We know where they are thanks to you. We should get going." He turns around to see Cana and Gildarts staying put. "What's up? Aren't you guys coming or not?" He tilts his head. Gildarts does stand by stays in his spot by his daughter. "Natsu. I know how much this quest means to you. And I think it's best that me and Cana stay here and keep an eye on the guild. You know if something goes wrong." Natsu understands where this is going. "Alright. Well I guess this is where we part ways until the quest is completed." He walks up to the bigger man, and offer his hand. Gildarts smile and shakes it.
Lucy and Cana give each other a warm hug. "Make sure he stays out of trouble." Cana tells Lucy. Lucy waves it off. "I can't keep such promises. But I'll try." Cana chuckles back. "Well then. Until we meet again." She tells as Lucy, Natsu and Happy walk out of the park and towards the train station. Gildarts and Cana smile sadly as they watch their friends walk away. "Well, we should head home." Gildarts tells her as he walks a bit ahead. Cana doesn't waste another second to catch up to her father.
Natsu, Lucy, and Happy make it to the train station. Natsu knows how much he's going to despise the train as it comes to view. "Oh come on Natsu. You should've gotten over that motion sickness." Lucy puts her hands onto her hips in such disbelief. Natsu glares back to her with a sickness expression. "Easy for you to say. In all of my years of such thing, I can't get over it. Not unless Wendy had her Troia spell casted upon me." He spoke in murmur. Lucy shakes her head and gets onto the train. Natsu relunctantly follows suit. Happy merely flies behind him. Not after they take their seats, the train begins to depart its platform. One movement, Natsu collapses onto his side with his face with puffy cheeks.
A few hours later, the train arrives in Margaret Town where the Lamia Scale Guild is. Once making its halt to let its passengers to get off, Natsu quickly raises up onto his feet. "Finally we're here." He said excitedly. Lucy and Happy gather their belongs and get off the train after Natsu. The group leave the train station and look around the town they arrived in. Like back in Magnolia, the town is lively with its own citizens. From those that are families, to the businesses and shops, and everything else in between. But that's not what they're here to begin with.
The group make their wait towards the Lamias Scale guild. They spot a huge building the Lamia Scale on top of a hill with its emblem on top of it. "It's Lamia Scale." Lucy smiles as she runs ahead. Natsu grins as he outruns her. "Last one is a rotten Dragon Egg!" He shouts at her. Lucy twitches her eyes as she tries her best to catch up to the Fire Dragon Slayer. Happy picks up Lucy and uses his max speed technique. Natsu looks up in shock. "Hey no fair!" He shouts as he activates his Fire Dragon Iron Fist booster. "You were saying?" Lucy looks down to him as Happy keeps using his max speed as she sticks her tongue out. Natsu doesn't like where this is going. "Oh yeah. We'll see about that!" He shouts back as he keeps his techinique going.
In the Lamia Scale, A boy with white spike hair spots the newcomers heading towards the building. "Well, Well, Well. What do we have here?" He grins. This boy is Lyon Vastia. "What is it Lyon?" A younger girl asks him with smile on her face. Her hair is a magenta color in pig tails in a puffy manner. "Well, Shelia, it turns out that some of Gray's guildmates are coming here." Lyon ansers the question casually. "Really?" Shelia speads out her smile as she takes a look out the window to see the group racing up the hill. "What's going on?" Another young girl's voice asks them. Shelia turns towards the source to see a girl in blue hair in a ponytail. Beside her is a white female cat with a rather serious expression on her face. "Hey Wendy, you gotta check this out." Shelia chimes happily as she scoots over to give Wendy enough room to look out the window. "What is it, Wendy?" The female cat asks her as she uses her aera magic to activate her wings so can get a view. "Look Carla, it's Natsu, Lucy, and Happy!" Wendy tells her happily to her friend.
Carla changes her expression from serious to surprise. 'Oh no. Not him.' She groans in thought. Wendy turns around and heads down stairs with Shelia following her. It's a good thing that she has a place to call home after the Fairy Tail disbanded. As such, Shelia suggests that she joins the Lamia Scale. When they faced each other in the Grand Magic Games, they became friends. Lyon smiles with fondness to see Wendy so excited to see her former guildmates. He looks down the hill, but frowns. Where was his childhood rival? All he heard was the Fairy Tail disbanded, unaware on where Gray, his rival is. "Might as well get some answers." He said to himself as he makes his way downstairs.
