Chapter Twenty: A new family
"Amazing…" Lucy spoke as she, Erza, and Maria looked on to see Natsu wrecking the dreadlord.
Natsu unleashed another barrage of fel fire fists against the dreadlord, who could only yell out in pain. Natsu didn't let up the attack as he then unleash a torrent of fel fire toward the other demon, sending him into the buildings. Not a moment later, the injured demon then flew toward Natsu, slamming his fists into his face. Unfortunately for the dreadlord, it didn't do anything but get Natsu angrier. Natsu retaliated by grabbing the dreadlord by its horns and threw him into the air, unleashing another torrent of fel fire at the other demon, causing impact as smoke filled the air. The dreadlord then fell to the ground.
Hearing something heading to them, Erza, Lucy, and Maria turned to see most of the others heading toward them.
"Maria!" The other siblings cried out in worry as they saw their sister injured as they ran toward her.
"Are you alright?" Sans asked her.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Maria assured them.
"Is that Natsu?" Cosmos questioned in shocked as she saw the pink haired male's new form. The others, except for the future kids, were also surprised by Natsu's new demonic form.
"Cool, Dad's got his demon form and powers back!" Garad shouted in excitement as they looked on as Natsu continued to pummel the dreadlord.
"What do you mean?" Romeo asked the future son of Natsu and Cana.
"Well, what he means is that even though Dad was always a demon, he nevered had access to his demon form and powers." Sans spoke, getting their attention. "I'm guessing the natural demonic energies the dreadlord gave off weakened and destroyed the seal."
"Wait, Natsu's a demon?" Wendy asked the red haired male.
"Yeah, we ourselves are also half demon, well except for Azazel." Tiron explained to the blue haired mage. "So in a sense, we are hybrids. How else did you think we have our demon forms and powers?"
"Wait, is this Azazel one of your siblings?" Kamika asked the green haired male, who nodded. "What do you mean by except for him?"
"Uh…" Tiron didn't know if he should tell them that one of his mothers is also a demon.
Before anyone else could ask anything else, they heard a roar of pain coming from the dreadlord. They looked to see Natsu tore one of the demons arms off, allowing the demon's demon blood to pour from the wound. Before the demon could do anything else, Natsu then punched the dreadlord with a fel fire fist, going through the demon's chest.
"You… you…" The dreadlord tried to speak to Natsu. "You… and everything you love… will perish in the end…" The dreadlord then smirked. "We… are Legion… we cannot be… stopped…" The dreadlord then all of a sudden disintegrated, leaving only its chest piece the only thing left of it as it fell to the floor.
"…We'll simply keep fighting on then." Was Natsu's only reply as he looked at what was left of the dreadlord. Fel fire enveloped Natsu before instantly going away, leaving Natsu back in his normal self as he collapse on his knees in exhaustion.
"Natsu!" The others called out, as Lucy and Erza ran to him to make sure he's alright.
"Are you alright Natsu?" Erza asked him as she and Lucy got him onto his feet.
Natsu simply grinned at them, "Yeah, just exhausted. Are you all okay?" He asked both the women and his daughter, who with the others ran to him to make sure he's okay.
"We'll be fine Dad." Maria replied to him with a smile.
"That's good to hear." Natsu responded with a smile.
"We were worried about you." Lucy told him, before continuing, "And Natsu, no matter if you're demon or not, we still love you." The blonde replied as she kissed his cheek, making him blush.
"I guess Mira and Erza aren't the only ones with Natsu now." Happy pointed out, if it weren't for all that just happened, he would have teased them by now.
"Let's get back to the palace," Natsu began to tell them, "There's still someone in pain." Natsu told them, as they realized that the fire dragon slayer was talking about Asuka.
Eventually after a few minutes, they managed to arrive back at the palace. The civilians who were sent there for protection were beginning to head out with a bunch of guards, as they need to start repairing the damage done to the city by the dreadlord's attack.
As they got back to the main throne room, they saw Hisui and Kinana trying to comfort Asuka as the bodies of Bisca and Alzack were being taken away. The green hair princess and purple hair barmaid looked up to see the others had returned.
"Are you all alright?" Kinana asked them as Natsu managed to approach them.
"Yeah, the dreadlord is dead." Natsu replied to them, as they were glad that the threat was gone, for now.
"T-The m-monster i-is g-gone?" Asuka managed to ask with tearful eyes as she still hugged to Hisui.
"Yeah," Natsu spoke softly as he bend his knees to look at her, "The monster is dead, and your parents have been avenged. It's all okay now."
Asuka simply looked at the dragon slayer, before letting go of Hisui and running to Natsu, hugging him. Natsu was a bit surprised by the action, before hugging the little girl back. Asuka simply could only mutter a small "Thank you" as she cried into Natsu's chest. Natsu then picked her up and hold her as he got back on his feet.
"What do we do now?" Hara asked the others. They all knew that the Legion is here, and that they need to find their siblings if they are to stop them. But they have no idea what to do at this moment.
"I don't know," Cana answered the future daughter of Natsu and Mira, "What will we do about Asuka?" The card mage questioned, both of her parents are dead, so who would take her in and care for her?
Before anyone could say anything else, Natsu spoke, "I'll take care of her." Natsu told them all, making them all look at him in surprised.
"Natsu, are you sure about that?" Erza wanted to make sure if Natsu was willing to do that much for the little girl. After all, taking care of a child is one of the biggest responsibilities anyone could ever have.
"I'm positive Erza, and I know I will have all of you to help me out. I mean, I must have done a good job since my future kids are this awesome already." Natsu assured the red haired woman, as the future siblings could only grin from the praise they got from their father.
"R-Really?" Natsu looked down to see Asuka looked at him with hope in her eyes. "Y-You w-would take c-care of me?"
Natsu smiled softly once more as he assured the little girl in his arms. "Yes Asuka, I may not be Bisca or Alzack, but I will do my best to take care of you. That's a promise."
Asuka, while still sad and in tears due to her parents death, managed to give a big smile to the dragon slayer as she hugged him once more, thanking him as Natsu simply hugged her back. This scene made everyone there smile.
All of a sudden, a lacrima that Arcadios had began to glow, signifying that someone was trying to get into contact with them. Arcadios then answered the lacrima, getting the others attention.
"Hello?" Arcadios began to speak, "Who is this-?"
"ABOUT (BEEP)ING TIME SOMEONE PICKED UP!" A shout was heard from the device, startling everyone from the sudden shouting. "WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET IN CONTACT LIKE A HUNDRED TIMES ALREADY!" The voice from the lacrima continued to shout. No one knew who this was, except for the future kids.
"Nagura?" Sans responded as he took the device from Arcadios, when he indeed saw it was Nagura who contacted them.
"Sans? Thank goodness, so the guild was right about some of you at Crocus?" Nagura's voice came from the communication device.
"Yeah, some of the others are here as well. We're with dad and some of our mothers." The red haired male answered. "Is any of the others with you?"
"Yeah, Yuge, Rebecca, and Angelica are with me. We're currently at Magnolia, which by the way was ATTACK BY THE LEGION'S ALLIES!" She shouted in anger at the end, getting everyone to widen their eyes by the news.
"Magnolia was attacked?" The Fairy Tail mages asked in worry, hoping that the guild was alright.
"Huh? Who was that?" She asked when she heard other voices.
"Well, I did say we were with dad and some of our mothers and aunts and uncles. I'll give the lacrima to dad." Sans then threw the device at Natsu, who managed to grab it despite holding Asuka.
"Hello?" Natsu spoke to the lacrima.
"Dad?" Nagura somewhat recognized the voice.
Everyone simply listen on, as they waited to see what happens next.
"Uh… yeah, that's me." Natsu managed to respond. Due to everything that happened already, he wasn't too surprised by this right now.
"Is mom there?" Nagura asked him, making him and the others wondered who Nagura's mother was.
"No Nagura, Kagura isn't here." Sans told her, getting everyone to look at the red haired male in shock by that information.
"What?" Sans asked them.
*THUD*
Everyone looked to see Natsu fainted again from knowing that he gets with Kagura and has a kid with her as well. Luckily, Asuka was okay as she got down before Sans told them that.
"…I guess he's not used to all of this yet." Garad replied, as he picked up the lacrime.
"What happened?" Nagura asked as she heard a thud noise.
"Don't worry about it; just tell us what happened at Magnolia." Tiron told her sister through the communication device, as everyone listen in on what happened.
Alright, there's that chapter. See you all next time, whenever that will be.
