Chapter 13: Mission for Team NaLu

Hey everybody this chapter is mostly going to be a more fighting chapter and some cute and special things of NaLu fluff that will be super fun to read. I might put a special surprise in for you that most NaLu fans and I have been waiting for since the fifth through eighth chapter to happen already (If you know what I mean wink-wink) but others who don't get what I'm talking about you'll just have to read to find out what happens in this chapter. I'm sorry for changing the title but I couldn't get any inspiration for this chapter so I changed it for later but I still hope you all enjoy this chapter and review what you think of the chapters that are now going on now and from the past.

(Lucy POV)

I walked into the guild with my team but of course like always we all go our separate ways for the day before coming back again to walk home together. Wendy and Carla go over to Romeo to talk for a while, Annabelle goes over to Cana and Bicklow for a little fun and for a quick drink and I would go over to Mira and get myself one of her famous strawberry milkshakes and breakfast to start off my day. Man I could drink Mira's milkshakes every morning if I could but I would be totally fat if I did. But for some reason Erza doesn't get fat when eating all that strawberry cake, well she is Titania so it only makes sense.

I find my seat on one of the stools in front of the bar where Mira is working her butt off but she loves doing it so in a way it's not really a chore/job it's fun activity that she does every day while being in Fairy Tail.

"Hey Mira" I greet the white-haired barmaid with a smile.

Mira turns around and sees me. "Hey Lucy, how are you doing today?" she said after greeting me.

"I've been doing great actually. I finally got three new celestial keys, two are the final parts of the Zodiac and the other one is the key Yukino used in last year's GMG's. Me, Wendy, Annabelle and our exceeds got to hang out with Sting, Rogue and their exceeds at my house. It was so much fun together like that it was a blast" I started getting excited explaining what happened at our little fun time at my house with Mira.

Mira smiled but I can see some shock and concern at what I told her. I knew I had to explain before she tells everyone and they react wrongly, especially Natsu. He would be the first to react and definitely at the fact that I let Sting and Rogue into my house with not letting him in for about a month and one week.

He's such a kid sometimes that it amazes that he is actually an adult with a child stuck in his body. But it wouldn't be Natsu if he didn't act like that and would take his cuteness away from him that I love so much.

Wait, what? I shouldn't be thinking about Natsu like that, besides he has Lisanna to tell him he's cute, not me. I mentally slump over at the thought but I know I have to let it go but it doesn't mean it doesn't still hurt from time to time.

"Lucy" Mira called out to me catching my attention and snapping myself out of my own thoughts. I shouldn't be thinking about him when I'm front of other people it always distracts me from everyone out of my head and it always hurt thinking about him with another person.

There I go again; I really need to stop this before my brain explodes.

"Yea Mira what's up?" I ask her kind of nervously wondering what she wanted to ask me when I was in my little daydreamland.

"You didn't get to finish explaining what happened at your house or show me your two new spirits that you got that night" Mira explained bring me back to reality.

"Oh yea I totally forgot, I'll show you now but I'll have to show one in here and the others outside because of their size" I told her before turning around to summon my new spirits for her. I requip a golden key in my hand and start calling the enchantment to summon my new spirit and friend.

"Open Gate of the Scales: Libra!" I spoke loudly feeling me and my spirits magic flow through me and into her key.

A small but bright light appeared and there stood Libra in her usual attire with a straight and partially emotionless face holding her scales in her hands and her mask covering her face.

"Hello princess what can I do for you today?" Libra said while slightly bowing towards me.

"Hello Libra I wanted you to meet a friend of mine, her name is Mira" Lucy said while pointing out to Mira behind the bar counter.

Mira waved to the spirit. "Hello it's nice to meet one of Lucy's new friends" Mira smiled at the spirit.

Libra nodded. "I also feel honored that I can meet one of my princess' friends as well, I hope we can one day fight together in battle" Libra said to Mira before turning her attention to Lucy again.

"Did you need me for anything else princess?" Libra asked.

"Nope that was all Libra and thanks for coming out to meet Mira, I'll make sure you get a couple days for yourself if you ever need a break" Lucy said to the gypsy looking spirit.

"You're welcome princess and thank you, I'll remember that for next time" Libra continued. "Goodbye princess, see you again" Libra said while disappearing in a flash of light and stardust.

"I really like your spirits Lucy they're so unique in their own ways and they have so much love for you. I'm amazed that every spirit you have loves you with all of their hearts and would do anything for you, it's so wonderful how strong your bond is with all of them." Mira said smiling happily at Lucy and cleaning a beer mug.

"Yeah I'm always happy to see them like that with me because it makes me feel happy to know they all trust me so much that they would put their lives out there just to help me" Lucy said smiling softly at the thought of her loving spirits.

"Well you're a great "master" but you're also a really great friend to all of your spirts and that's why they love you so much

I felt tears start coming down my face at what Mira said before running around the bar counter to hug her.

"Thank you Mira, that's one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me" I said silently crying while hugging Mira.

Mira hugged me tighter in our hug. "You're welcome Lucy, you deserve it" Mira said smiling softly neck to my cheek.

We both pulled away to smile at each other before getting rudely interrupted by partial drunk Cana screaming to get her more booze.

"Haha seems like my is never done, I'll talk to you later Lucy and why don't you go on a mission it might clear your head up" Mira said to me, while also suggesting to go out and do something today.

I looked at her fading image and decided she was right I should do a mission today for myself; I haven't gone on one since I meet Unolena. Then it's settle I'm going on mission!

I got up from my stool with determination and walking over to the mission board to find me something I might be interested in or even want to go to after going on missions with a group all this time it'll be different being alone again.

I looked over the board trying to find a fun but good paying job that I could go to get my mind off things that have been happening since I got back.

I kept searching but I couldn't find anything that had some action or fun it! Why do people have to have so many problems that are so boring and lame!

I sighed with disappointment and started to walk away so I wouldn't have to deal with it anymore but then a thing of pink and blue pop up in front of me out of nowhere, while scarring the living shit out of me.

"Hey Luce/Lushy!" Natsu and Happy said together.

"KYAAA!" I yelled loudly at them.

(Normal POV)

"What the hell Natsu, you scared the living shit out of me!" Lucy yelled loudly, making Natsu cringe.

"Man Luce if you keep screaming like that you won't have to use your magic to fight, you can just scream somebodies head off" Natsu said holding his ears with his hands.

Lucy looked at him stunned before punching his arm at his little joke about her yelling. Natsu responded by giving a pretend hurt look at her punch and both of them giggled at each other's silliness, like old times.

Lucy was actually enjoying joking around with Natsu like she used to but couldn't help shake the feeling that something really special and big was about to happen soon. She pushed the feeling to the back of her mind and kept acting like her old self with her old partner/old best friend/love interest.

Natsu was loving how he can act like he used to with Lucy but he knew he had way deeper feelings for her then he did back then and he was going to make them fully known to her after what he was going to ask her today.

"Hey Luce I wanted to ask you something?" Natsu looked into Lucy's chocolate brown eyes that always captured his heart and soul whenever she looked at him.

Lucy stopped laughing to see the look that Natsu was giving her. "Yeah Natsu, what do you need to tell me?" Lucy asked worried at Natsu's expression towards her.

Natsu closed his eyes while taking a deep breath; he opened his eyes again to look at her with an emotion he showed when he was either serious or trying to do something, determination.

"Will you please go on a mission with me and Happy?" Natsu asked.

Lucy was shocked to say the least at the request but couldn't help but giving him one of her bright smiles and saying yes a million times, but she needed to know a couple more things before giving him an answer.

"Is Lisanna coming?" Lucy asked bitterly.

"No" Natsu answered without hesitation, noticing the hint of anger making him laugh mentally in his head.

Lucy sighed mentally before asking the next question. "Does she know that you're asking me to go with you on a mission?" Lucy asked more calmly.

"She already knows about it and she's going on this mission with Laxus and the Raijinshuu for some reason" Natsu said scratching his chin at the thought of Lisanna going on mission with them before pushing it to the back of his mind to smile brightly at his old partner/old best friend/love interest.

Lucy thought it was weird that she would go on a mission with them but didn't care because she was finally going to be able to hang out with Natsu after all the drama that happened between them.

"Ok I'll go with you but I have to tell my team about it so they won't get worried about me" Lucy responded calmly but this time she was jumping happily.

Natsu smile grew bigger before pulling her into his chest to hug her. "Really Luce, awesome I'm I can't wait to get started on this mission. I'm happy that you said yes to it instead of telling me to leave" Natsu said still hugging Lucy tightly, leaving her little bit of space to breathe.

"Natsu… please… let me… go… I can't… breathe!" Lucy breathed out of Natsu tight gripping hug.

Natsu looked down at Lucy to see her face as blue as a blueberry, he let go of her and she was gulping any forms of oxygen into her mouth. He scratched the back of his head smiling nervously at her. "I'm really sorry Lucy I didn't mean to hurt you like that" Natsu said.

Lucy took a final deep breath and then glaring at Natsu's face. "God I know you're happy but damn could you have taken it a little bit down, you almost killed me" Lucy said holding on to her knees with her hands while slowly panting.

Natsu started laughing. "Sorry again, sometimes don't know my own strength" Natsu said flexing his toned muscles and kissing both of them in front of Lucy.

Lucy simple giggled to herself at how stupid Natsu could be when he was with her. "Oh really, because from my point of view I don't see anything there" Lucy said while snickering at Natsu's priceless face.

"Hey!" Natsu put down his arms to pout at Lucy with his child-like demeanor making Lucy laugh out loud for the entire guild to hear her.

Lucy calmed down her laughing so she could go over to her friends and tell them that she was leaving soon on mission. Natsu watched her walk away knowing that when on this mission he was going to find a way to tell her what he truly feels about her and what he is going to do with his relationship when they get back.

Lucy walked over to her team at the bar to see them having girl time with some gossip involving the guilds relationships and what not. Lucy pulled out a bar stool and sat down to see what they were talking about before she left with Natsu, Happy and possibly Anna if she wanted to go with her.

"Hey guys whatcha talkin about?" Lucy asked.

All the girls turned around to look at Lucy's face before breaking out into scheming grins filled with mischief, practically scaring the living hell out of Lucy.

"Luuuuccyy~~" all the girls sang, while moving in closer.

"Y-Yeah what's going with you guys?" Lucy asked while back up slowly away from them.

"We were just wondering are you about to go on mission right now?" Mira asked.

"Yeah" Lucy answered, not liking how this is going for her.

"Is there by any chance that someone is coming with you on this mission of yours?" Cana asked next, making the girls move in closer to the nervously sacred blonde.

"Y-Yes" Lucy answered with a small stutter.

"By there any chance" Wendy started off. "Be a certain fire dragon that is going with you by the name of" Annabelle continued with it. "Natsu Dragneel" They both said together moving in closer to Lucy.

Lucy down to the ground with a slight blush. "Y-Yes" Lucy answered and had the girls squealing and yelling about how cute those two would look together.

Lucy felt didn't know why but instead of feeling happy about the mission like she was before she felt ashamed, that she was taking a guy that wasn't even her partner, teammate, or even boyfriend on a mission with her. Even though she was going to do it she could get her head on straight from all the drama that's been going lately.

"We're going as friends and you all should know that already, especially you Annabelle and Wendy" Lucy tried to convince the girls but of course they didn't and kept creating their fantasies in front of her.

"Yeah right Lucy, I don't even believe for a second you're doing this because you're friends again and especially after everything he did to you I wouldn't even thought that he could come three steps of you before you blaster or punched him into an oblivion" Cana said while drinking her huge tanker of red wine in a barrel.

"Yea but we both got over and we decided to bury the hatchet and move on from it. He's with Lisanna and I'm not with anyone, end of story" Lucy said letting the blush flush off of her face.

"Ok whatever Ms. Indenial, but you're going to have to face the facts that he was meant for you and nobody can take away that away" Mira said trying to give Lucy some helpful advice.

Lucy sighed. "Buts that's the thing Mira, Lisanna already has" Lucy got up from her seat with a small frown on her face before walking away from the girls so she could go home to pack so she could do this mission with Natsu.

"I'm going home to pack, tell Anna if she wants to come just tell her to come home and also pack her some stuff for the mission" Lucy said backwards waving to all of them and walking over to Natsu.

The girls sighed sadly at how Lucy's life has become so hard and complicated since she came back from her training, they wanted to do something special for her but didn't know what they could do to help her trip to be better for her.

The girls started thinking individually about ideas until the perfect person for the job came over to greet them.

"Hey Mira; me and Lucy need you to stamp this so we could go on this mission today, please" Natsu asked looking at her.

Mira smiled evilly for a second, having an idea brewing inside of her mind to bring Natsu and Lucy together.

"Of course Natsu whatever you need" Mira said with her usual smile, while stamping the request for their mission.

"Thanks Mira, I'll see you guys in a couple of days or so" Natsu said about to run out to catch up to Lucy but was stopped by Mira asking him one thing before he goes.

"Natsu how much do you know about Lucy's body?" Mira asked bluntly.

(Magnolia Train: Time Skip 2 hours)

Lucy and Natsu were both done with their packing and were both sitting in a train booth by themselves. Happy at first wanted to go but decided against when Mira told him to stay back so they could have some "alone time" and Anna didn't go because Happy didn't go so she just stayed at the guild with Happy and ate fish. Lucy was sitting and had Natsu in her lap from the motion sickness that he usually has when traveling on the "a cursive train" that he likes to call it.

Lucy started slowly stroking her fingers through his pink/salmon hair while she also sang a song to him so he could fall asleep before they got to where they were going. Lucy loved this kind of time with Natsu because she can be completely calm with him and she just loved smelling the scent that radiated off of his muscular toned body, always sending shivers down her spine at how just one sniff of his scent made her go wild with lust for him any day. But she had to keep cool especially not knowing if Natsu was truly asleep or not, so just had to pull down her arousal for now until she found a place where can get rid of it before he notices it.

Natsu was enjoying the train ride the first time in his life and it was all because of the blonde beauty that was over him playing with his head and singing a song to put him to sleep. He loved when she did these simple things for him when he was going the trains and stuff, it's been hell for him for the past month trying to go to missions without her being there to get him through the train rides without almost hurling his guts out. Don't get him wrong when Lisanna did it was nice but when Lucy did it, it was like heaven for him. (Until he wakes up again from the train ride ending XD) He loved Lucy's scent and how she hits the right spots on his head to make the headache and stomachache go completely away from his mind and body, he loved it!

He was about to go to sleep from her amazing scent and her wonderful angel-like singing voice so he can think of a plan to make this a mission she wouldn't forget and where he was going to woo her. (In more ways than one ;D) But before he could even shut his eyelids her scent smashes into his noise like a wrecking ball ( LOL XD) that made his mouth water every second that it was present, he just couldn't stop thinking about it, it was too tempting.

He smelt her arousal before but this time it was totally different, it was smell of pure and utter lust for something and at that moment Natsu hoped it was him that she was thinking about. He wanted to get up and ravage her so badly even if he was still motion sick, but he knew that if he tried to do it when they were about to get to their mission he would never hear the end of it from her. And she would probably never go on another mission with him again, which is something he desperately does not need after that's happened between them. So he was going to play it cool for now until he would find a place to relieve himself of his lust for the blonde dragonslayer.

Both dragonslayers were fighting off a hard battle to keep their desires in check but one thing is that both of them didn't know about one of the other is that both of them wanted each other but couldn't tell if it was for some else or not. Both of their dragons wanted to play and soon or a later they would come out and have some fun.

(Time Skip: 3 hours)

Lucy and Natsu got off the train arriving in a city called Suncove City to start on their mission for the mayor of the town. They first went to go rent a room for the night before going off to the mayor's building.

They walked to the mayors building so they can get the full info for the mission that they both picked out.

Natsu started rapidly banging on the door so one of the people in the place could open up the door for them, so they can start the mission already and get the stuff he wanted back from the dark guild they were going to face.

Lucy slapped his arm away from the door and giving him a glare of annoyance. "Will you stop that; I think they can already hear the first couple of knocks, so stop banging on his door!" Lucy whispered loud to Natsu.

Natsu rolled his eyes at Lucy to show her it wasn't that big of a deal but Lucy wasn't going to have that.

Before Lucy was going to rip a piece out of Natsu she heard someone come closer to the door before opening it up to see them.

"H-Hello" a blue-haired maid asked behind the partial cracked door.

"Hello there, we're the mages who took you're request to help you take out the dark guild who's terrorizing you're city" Lucy told the maid with a small smile.

The maid gasped before closing the door in front of the two with a bang, shocking Lucy and Natsu.

Natsu and Lucy looked at each other with a questionable look before turning to the door where a short white-haired old man stood with the door wide open to greet the two mages.

"Hello there mages Fairy Tail thank you so much for taking our request, please will you come inside?" the mayor asked.

Lucy nodded with a smile and Natsu sent a small smile following after Lucy into the mayor's home.

Everyone walked into a living room having a table filled with tea and snacks that made Natsu's water at the sight.

Lucy tapped his arm giving Natsu a knowing look to tell him 'don't you dare eat all this food here' making Natsu sulk sadly.

They both walked over to take a seat on a couch that was across from the mayor who was sitting on a chair ready to start talking about the mission ahead.

"Ok mayor, what has been going between you and the this dark guild we have to face?" Lucy asked holding her sketch pad and pencil.

"Well for the last few weeks this dark guild called Sinister Ogre keeps coming into the city robbing peoples stuff, stealing money from the banks, harassing and raping the local women and making death threats towards me if I didn't give up my city they would kill everyone" The mayor was telling them.

"Has anyone gotten seriously hurt or died from any of their attacks on the city?" Lucy asked writing down what the mayor said carefully.

"Yes, they took one girl hostage before rapping her and killing her, leaving her body on a park bench in the middle of the city" the mayor said sighing sadly to himself.

"I'm so sorry mayor, but I had a question I wanted to ask you that has been bugging me since we started talking?" Lucy asked writing another piece of information from the mayor.

"Yes, you can ask anything" the mayor responded.

"If all this was going on why didn't you send message for a mage earlier, wouldn't it be easier to of done that then let all this stuff happen before hand?" Lucy asked.

The mayor sighed looked down at the floor before looking up at Lucy again. "There is a reason to why I held out this long with making this request to be dealt with earlier" the mayor said having a sad distant look in his eyes.

Lucy and Natsu caught on to the man's distant look before Lucy asked the mayor again. "What happened to make you wait so long?" Lucy asked him.

"The dark guild made another attack at us but instead of killing everyone or even me they said they would go after another person instead that meant more to me than anything in the world" the mayor slowly explained while looking at the ground floor again.

"What?" Lucy asked.

The mayor looked up with sadness clouding his eyes for both of them to see. "They have my daughter hostage in their guild, they threatened to kill my daughter if I didn't pay the dark guild what they wanted" the mayor said with tear flooding his eyes.

Lucy sat there in shock at the news while Natsu sat there with clenched fist and growl erupting from deep within his chest towards his throat.

"Please, please save my daughter she's all I have left after my wife died. I couldn't imagine what my life would be without her, I love her" the mayor whispered desperately while his maids try to calm him down.

Natsu was two seconds at going over there and burning down Sinister Ogre's guild down but Lucy stopped him before he got up. He looked at her with a look filled with anger but it all went away when he saw the look of sadness cross her pretty pale face.

Lucy was livid at the thought at what those bastard where going to do to that poor girl but she was also sad because she was thinking about her own father back then and thinking about how she wished he could of done something like that with her for once.

Natsu knew the look on Lucy's face meant he grabbed her small soft hand into his large rough ones before squeezing them to shake her out of her thoughts.

Lucy felt a squeeze to her hand and looked at Natsu to see him giving her a reassuring smile intertwining their fingers together. Lucy smiled back at him with a look filled with love but washed away remembering that they were on a mission and Natsu has a girlfriend, also feeling having a sinking feeling in her heart when hearing her say it in her mind.

Natsu looked at her with a confused expression on his face before Lucy pulled her hands away from his to walk towards the mayor.

Lucy grabbed the mayor's hands and gave him a warm smile to calm him down so she can talk to him properly.

"You don't have to worry Mayor we'll get your daughter back as soon as possible, I promise. You have nothing to worry about because as a Celestial Spirit mage we always keep are promises and as a Fairy Tail mage we never give up without a fight" Lucy told the mayor, reassuring the mayor's trust in the two Fairy Tail mages.

The mayor tried whipping his face of his tears and gave off a teary smile towards at her words to save his beloved daughter from the people who kidnapped her.

"Thank you so much, you don't know how grateful I am to know your helping get my daughter back to me" the mayor said crying softly again.

Lucy smiled and nodded towards him. "You're welcome"

Natsu walked over to Lucy and the mayor putting his arms around the blonde, smiling brightly at the two. "You should go get some rest because the next time you'll see us is when we'll be bring back your daughter to you" Natsu said showing his usual toothy grin.

Lucy smiled at Natsu's smile before nodding to the mayor a final time before walking out with her stupid pink-haired crush.

The mayor laughed at the two before whispering one more final goodbye and thanking to the two, of course reaching the two because of their hearing.

Lucy and Natsu started walking together but not in their usual fun and talkative way, they were not even talking to each other. It was this weird awkward silence between the two, which didn't seem like it fit the two so well.

Lucy was thinking about the mayor and his daughter at how she was missing her own father and wished he did that kind of thing for her but not for selfish reasons, she wanted him to do it because he loved her and he wanted her to be ok.

Lucy sighed to herself sadly before pushing those past thoughts to the back of her mind until the mission was over with, a growing feeling of determination bloomed inside of her to bring her back the mayor's daughter and she was going to do it one way or another.

Natsu saw all the expressions on Lucy face when she was thinking deeply to herself and he couldn't help loving every one of them; she went from partial sadness and longing to full on determination. He missed all those faces she used to do when she was in deep thought but he wished that he could enjoy those faces more.

Since Lucy came back he hasn't been feeling like his old self. He was happy with being with Lisanna but it felt like he wasn't fully complete like when he was with Lucy.

He couldn't act the same way he used to be with Lisanna, she didn't fit the role that Lucy took all those years ago. And when he heard the rumor of Lucy dying he felt his whole world fall apart; he didn't know if he could keep living knowing that his best friend and possibly the love of his life died before he could tell her his true feelings for her, his heart broke .

Then Lisanna came in trying to help him get back on his feet after feeling sad and broken from the world. She saved him but she couldn't get rid of the feeling of sadness at longing he felt for Lucy. After a while they started to hang out together like old times and then out of the blue they started dating, he felt normal again but he never felt like he used until he saw Lucy in the guild on that day.

He was completely ecstatic at seeing the girl he loved standing there but it all fell through the cracks when he realized what he did to her when she was gone, he betrayed her by getting with another women.

After that day he wanted to be closer to her but he knew he couldn't because he was with Lisanna and the deal that they made together; he had to wait for her and the worst part was that he couldn't do anything about it until Lisanna broke up with him.

From then until now he finally noticed that Lucy was more than just a best friend or a lover, she was his mate.

Natsu chuckled inwardly at the thought of him and Lucy but soon wanted it to happen so he could always be with her and that they could live the life they wanted to have before she left for her training. He got the mission so he could get some alone time with Lucy before she would go out with her team again like she always did, but not before Natsu went and planned out all of this so he could tell her how he felt and tell her about her being his mate.

Natsu kept walking next to her and finally decided to break the ice between the two so he could actually talk to her like he used to.

"Hey Luce I wanted to-" Natsu started talking.

"We're here" Lucy said cutting Natsu off.

Natsu stood there for a moment trying to figure out what happened and how did he not notice that they were so close to the target's location. Lucy turned around to notice Natsu was looking spaced out for some reason, she shook her head at the thoughts that run through the pink-haired's brain sometimes.

"Hey Natsu, are you coming or what?" Lucy yelled out for him before walking closer towards the dark guild.

Lucy's voice shook him out his thoughts before jogging to catch up with her near the dark guild's building.

Lucy motioned for Natsu to come over, Natsu got near Lucy before crouching her lowered level to check out the guild from a distance.

Both of them listened and smelt the air to check if the area was safe to talk. After a few minutes they both decided it was safe and proceeded to discuss what they were going to do to rescue the mayor's daughter.

"Ok, i think we should be careful at how we do this because if we don't do it correctly we may lose the mayor's daughter by them, so do you have any ideas we could use on trying to rescue her?" Lucy asked Natsu while thinking of strategic ideas to save the mayor's daughter.

Natsu put his hand to his chin before an idea pops in his head. "We could both attack from the front but let one of your spirits to go in the back to go rescue her without her getting hurt and kicking those dark guild scum's asses for what they did to these people in this town" Natsu said, explaining his plan to Lucy and expressing his emotions on the mission.

Lucy looked at him with surprise at the brilliant idea Natsu just gave out, she smiled at him before pulling him close and hugging him.

Natsu wasn't ready for the surprise hug that Lucy initiated but pulled her a little tighter to his muscular frame and his arms wrapped around her waist protectively. He took a quick and silent niff of her delicious scent before she pulled away to look at his face with a full blown grin that also made him smile brightly at his expression.

"Ok what did I do that made you smile that much?" Natsu asked still holding Lucy in his embrace.

"I've known you for almost 13 years and I have never seen you give a battle strategy like that one before" Lucy crossed her arms under her chest with a fake pout, talking in a teasing tone towards Natsu.

Natsu smirked at her thinking about her cute pout and sexy body but continuing at what she said to him. "Well you were gone for four years and also I had these kind of ideas before I just didn't want to show everyone how awesome I was" Natsu said confidently.

Lucy snorted. "Yea right, and if that's so then I might have to start going on more missions with you again" Lucy said teasingly.

Natsu smirked turned instantly into a wide grin. "I have no problem with that, besides" Natsu leaned closer to her ear whispering hotly in her ear. "It would be good to get some 'alone' time with you once in a while" Natsu said seductively.

Lucy blushed feeling heat go straight down to her thighs but wasn't going to let him get away with that without getting him back.

"Well then next time set up a date so we can have more 'alone' time together" Lucy copied Natsu actions while sucking on his ear lightly.

Natsu moaned softly but Lucy heard it and smiled lustfully, making Natsu growl at her with a new form of lust appearing for her in his eyes.

Lucy looked into his eyes and wanted to just jump right then and there but she also realized they were on a mission and that had to be the man focus before she could deal with Natsu's lust form.

Lucy pulled away from him bring a protest to the two of them but stopping it so they could finish the mission.

"Ok we'll attack from the front and I'll use one of my spirits to sneak in the guild to get the mayor's daughter" Lucy was thinking which spirit would be a good choice for her to use.

Natsu shook his head of his lustful thoughts before focusing on the mission. "What spirit are you going to use?" Natsu asked seeing her sitting down to trying to think of what spirit to use.

In about two minutes flat she finally found the answer. "I know what spirit I wanna use to rescue the mayor's daughter" Lucy said with a bright smile.

(Time skip 20 mins; Normal POV)

It was regular day in the dark guild of Sinister Ogre: people fighting, drinking, smoking, and some looking up some missions that they can take like normal mages do in guilds. But all came crumbling down when the doors of Sinister Ogre were busted wide open to see two shadowy figures come through standing next to each other.

One had her hands on her curvy hips while the other one was standing a battle position ready to fight anyone who got in his way. The guild was shocked but they didn't let their guards down until the shadowy figures came into light and they could see the guild marks on both of the two mages' shoulders to show who they were from.

One guild member stood up and pointed an accusing finger at the two. "Hey, those two are from Fairy Tail!" he yelled out to everyone in the guild.

Some of the guild members were kind of afraid but the others were pissed as hell probably knowing why they were even there in the first place, especially at this guild.

"Wow Natsu, apparently we got some fans here" Lucy said sarcastically with a smile present on her face.

"What she would we do to make them feel more comfortable around us?" Lucy asked him, getting into her battle stance knowing already what he was going to say.

"Well Lucy I think I need to get them all Fired Up!" Natsu said raising his lit up fist and running towards the attacking dark guild members Lucy running right by his side.

Behind all this madness that was happening in the dark guild a dark and sneaky shadow was sliding and curving all throughout the floor without anyone noticing it because of the darkness in the back of the guild.

The mysterious shadow started going under a door where it lead to a room with a cage in and there in that cage was a little sick and tired 10 year old girl sitting there with ripped up clothes and dry tear marks all across her face.

The shadow started to grow in size to manifest into tall and muscular man that looked sort of like a bird with black feathers on his arms and back.

The shadow turned into one of Lucy's spirits, Crovus, the crow constellation. He looked at his surroundings and seeing the little girl sitting there all alone and barely even moving made him sick to his stomach. And started to build up a form of rage that was inside of him that made him want to rip the head of whoever did this to this poor little girl.

Crovus pushed his killer thoughts before using some of his shadow magic to break of the chains off of her and break the lock that was keeping her In there, when he broke through all the locks he picked up the weak girl in his arms before looking around if it was safe and turning his body into shadows so he could escape.

Natsu was punching guys left and right while blasting most of them with fire to take them out quicker but he the one thing he couldn't stop doing the entire time when he was fighting was looking at Lucy fighting.

He saw Lucy fought before and don't get him wrong he likes seeing her fight but the way she was fighting now was way different then what she used to do back when he was partners with her before she left for her training, she was stronger, fiercer, and she moved with such grace that even a ballerina would envious of her movements.

She flipped, kicked, punched and blasted any guy who would try to touch her and did it without breaking a sweat, it was amazing to say the least.

Natsu fought over to her area to get closer to her but he didn't need to because she was coming to him to tell him something.

Lucy reached Natsu but not before beating up so other dark guild members in the process making Natsu swell with pride with her fighting. Lucy stopped right in front of him before speaking to him in low whispers ,but for the two of them was like having a person say it to them right in front of their face.

"Ok Natsu we don't have to keep fighting now, we can finally get out of here because Crovus just told me he has the mayor's daughter with him so we can finish this up and take the members to the magic council guards later" Lucy said fighting more guys.

"Ohhh but I wanted to keep fighting a little more with you" Natsu pretended to whine a bit to tease her to see what her reaction would be while dodging kicks and punches and giving his own.

Lucy blushed turning around to take out another dark guild member before glaring at him for his stupid little joke. "Shut up, you know we can go on other missions together" Lucy responded dodging some members attacks.

"I hold on to with that promise" Natsu said using his Fire Dragon Roar on some the members.

Lucy sighed. "Whatever, let's just finish this so we can return the mayor's daughter back to him, ok" Lucy asked before doing backflip to dodge a sword being swung at her.

Natsu sighs and huffs dramatically. "Fine, but you owe me a fight later when we get back to the guild, deal" Natsu asked turning to face Lucy with his hand to meet hers.

Lucy turned around before clapping their hands together and kicking the guy that was behind both of them at the same time.

Lucy flipped away from the remaining dark guild members while Natsu jumped next to her to finally finish this battle once and for all.

"You ready Luce?" Natsu asked with his fist ignited and his toothy grin.

"Always" Lucy responded with her fist glowing in golden yellow light with a similar toothy grin on her face.

"Let's do it on three?" Lucy said.

"Right" Natsu nodded, responding to Lucy.

"1" Lucy said letting her magic flow out.

"2" Natsu letting his flames run wild.

"3!" Both of them yelled out together.

"With a flame on the right hand" Natsu chants with his right fist covered in flames.

"And a flame on the left hand" Natsu's flames starts covering his left fist.

"When you combine the flames together" Lifting both of his flamed hands to the air and creating a blazing fire ball.

"Fire Dragon's Brilliant Flame!" Natsu throws the large blazing fire ball towards the dark guild members.

"With a shining star on the right hand" Lucy chants with her right fist covered in bright yellow stars.

"And a dark void on the left hand" Lucy's fist starts being covered in black like magic.

"When you combine the stars and dark void together" Lifting both of her celestial magic hands to the air creating a dark but fiercely bright dark whole with stars in the middle of it.

"Celestial Dragon's Dark Voids Stars Brilliance!" Lucy throws the huge dark and shining star dark whole at the dark guild members, like Natsu did, and creating a huge explosion together.

When it was over with Natsu and Lucy were looking at a completely destroyed guild hall and a good amount of 40 or more people on the ground knocked out on the floor from the attack and when they were fighting earlier.

Lucy looked at the damage with horror but Natsu simply just laughed at it like nothing really bad happened.

"Man this time we went really went overboard this time, didn't we Luce?" Natsu asked wrapping his arm around her shoulder pulling her close to him, making slightly blush at the warm contact.

Lucy looked at the damage again but this time instead of looking at it in horror she stared laughing with him.

"Well like you said when we took are first job, 'you might as well go big or go home' you were such a baka back then" Lucy laughed.

Natsu started laughing harder at the memory and couldn't stop loving the feeling of being like this with her again. After so long of him being apart from her and then imagining never seeing her like this ever again after what happened between them, he wanted this moment together for the rest of his life.

When both got down from their laughing high they both decide to wrangle up all the guys so they could take them to the magic council and let them deal with them.

Virgo tied up all the dark guild members and waited for the magic council come and picked them up. They waited for a while but came and took all the members away for good, in jail.

After Lucy and Natsu were done with dealing with the dark guild they went off and started to walk to the mayor's house with his daughter in Lucy's arms, she knocked out when they we're done fighting so they decided to take her back without trying to wake her up.

They knocked on the door waiting for the mayor or one of his servants answer it for them. The mayor opened the door to see Lucy, Natsu and his beloved daughter.

"Marie" the mayor asked.

The little brown haired, green eyed girl started to wake up and when she did she was shocked and happy to see her father standing right in front of her.

"Daddy" Marie asked looking at her father.

"Marie!" the mayor yelled with happiness while opening his arms out to his daughter.

"Daddy!" Marie yelled while jumping into his arms hugging him with all of her power.

"Oh Marie I'm so glad you're ok, thank Mavis that you're alright" the mayor said to her with tears running down his face while Marie was holding on to her father tightly.

Lucy smiled warmly at the interaction but decided that it would best if they left so two could talk after not seeing each other for so long.

"Come on Natsu, we probably should get going back to the hotel now" Lucy said turning around to walk away from the mayor's house.

Natsu looked at her with shock but turning around to see the look on her face making him understand why they needed to go. He looked back at the small family before following her to leave.

The mayor saw the two start to leave and wanted to stop them. "Ms. Heartfilia, Mr. Dragneel, wait!" the mayor yelled still holding Marie close to him.

Lucy and Natsu stopped to see what the mayor needed before going off again and leaving to get some well-ordered sleep.

"I forgot to give you the reward for what you did for me and my daughter and I'm not taking no for an answer because of what you two did" the mayor said calling one of his maids to give them the money that they deserved for what they did.

Lucy was about to protest but Natsu grabbed her arm silencing her from saying more on it then she already needed to.

Lucy sighed before walking slowly towards the maid with the case that had the money they we're going to get for taking the job.

Lucy took the case and opened it to see that it was actually more money then what they were going to originally get for the job.

"Mr. Mayor the reward was only 150,000 J, why is there almost 300,000J in her instead?" Lucy asked him.

"Because you didn't just save my town but you also saved my little angel, I don't what I would have done without all of your help to get her back to me" the mayor explained.

Lucy looked at and was about to say something again but instead of Natsu telling her to stop she decided she was grateful for it and gave the mayor a quick bow before waving goodbye to Marie and him.

Lucy and Natsu later walked back to their rented rooms to get some R&R after today's recent events and decided that would stay in Suncove City a bit longer, just until the time was supposed to be up for the mission, which was only about five days or so.

"I have to admit Luce you were really kicking some serious ass out there today, I thought you were strong before but that was just an understatement" Natsu started praising Lucy making her blush madly at him speaking so highly of her.

"Thanks Natsu, you did awesome job too" Lucy smiled. "And I even I gotta admit that you gotten way stronger since I last fought you" Lucy said making the other dragonslayer blush also at her praise for him.

"Thanks Luce" Natsu said sheepishly.

"You're welcome, now I'm gonna take shower and if you want when you go take we could get some room service and eat in here for the night" Lucy said picking out her pajamas for the night before looking at Natsu again for his response. "Sound Cool?" Lucy asked him.

Natsu face beamed with excitement at the thought of spending more time with his friend/crush. "Yea that would be awesome" Natsu smiled brightly.

Lucy chuckled before walking into the shower to take a nice warm shower then a quick bath for her sore muscles.

But before Natsu could do anything else he heard his Communication Lacrima go off with blinking lights and loud beeping. He got this after times if he couldn't be with Lisanna then he could call her to talk to her at night when he had the nightmares about Lucy dying in other horrible situations.

Natsu rushed over to it and answered not even knowing who It could be but like always not caring either, he turned it on where a certain and familiar image popped up on to the lacrima screen.

"Hey Lisanna what's up?" Natsu asked happily.

"Hey Natsu how are you doing?" Lisanna asked nervously.

"Oh we just finished a mission earlier today and now Luce and me are just relaxing for now" Natsu told Lisanna who was for some reason looking antsy and nervous for some reason.

"Oh that's good" Lisanna said looking away with a guilty and sad look on her face.

Natsu caught her expression and wanted to know what was going on with her. "Hey Lisanna what's going on, you don't look so good" Natsu tried looking at her closing through the lacrima screen.

"Natsu I wanted to call you so I could ask you something very important" Lisanna said trying not to look at Natsu's face or his eyes.

"Anything Lisanna, what is it?" Natsu asked her looking partially worried.

Lisanna took a really deep breath before looking up at Natsu's face to say the five words that he never thought would ever come out of her mouth, definitely not in a sentence towards him.

"Natsu, I wanna break up" Lisanna said seriously to Natsu.

Natsu's entire world went into a whole just completely froze, the only response his mouth and brain could make was . "What?" Natsu said dumbfounded.

OMG you do not know how hard that was to make for all of you guys and the worst part was that I didn't know what to do with the story after having all those new ideas for stories in my head blocking the way. Plus Writers Block was kicking my ass for the past months but now that I'm finished with this chapter I can tell him to go suck my ass because I finished it, take that you distracting Bitch.

Now that's over I was really happy to finally finish this chapter for after all this time but I'm more happy to put that surprise twist at the end because it's been going long enough with NaLi and I'm getting tired of it already, so after this there is going to be NaLu next chapter with lemon scene for all for you because I've been dying to make one since I made Chapter 10.

It's going to be so much fun and It won't take a whole generation to make it but still it'll take a while for me to finish to bring in the NaLuness but please don't come for my life when I make this lemon scene because it'll be my first official one on this story so try go easy on me just a little ok.

But besides all that I hoped you liked this chapter with its action and major flirty moments because next chapter it will continue right after this chapter and NaLi splitting up, FINALLY! But wait that's my fault oopsies lol.

Next chapter will be called Chapter 14: Bad Breakups and Hot Hookups I think it's one of my best chapter names (it has the same first letter on both sides, B&H too funny) and I hope you all like it.

I'm so glad that all of you stayed with me through this story even if I'm the slowest writer on earth plus Writers Block fucking hates me so that sucks, for me that is. But I will try harder and I will try to finish this story by the end of these couple of months so I can work more on my new story ideas. Oh and please vote on which story ideas you think I should do or even ones you have that you guys would like for me to do for you. But I beg of you please vote, I want these stories to be made so go to my profile or even PM to let me know what you think, it would be awesome if you did.

I can't wait to see you all next time when the next chapter comes out and please be patient because nobody likes a bitch who rushes people all the time, it's annoying. See ya all next time Otakulover43 PEACE .
