Chapter Sixty: Never hurt a demon's love one.
Fists of Fel clashed once more as a small shockwave manifested from the collision, as both Natsu and Osmoas continued to land blow after blow on one another. No matter how hard one would hit the other, neither of them refused to break. The two demons of Fel fists collided with one after another, launching shockwave after shockwave, not caring about the damage their fighting was doing to the already damaged town.
This collision of punches eventually ended as Natsu then ducked under the next fist throw that Osmoas, catching the Eredar off guard by the sudden move. Before he could react, Natsu then sent an uppercut right onto the other demon's chin, getting Osmoas to launch into the air. Natsu then followed up with a Fel Fire Roar at the Eredar. Before the attack could hit though, the demon pulled up a magic shield of Fel, thus blocking the Roar from doing any damage. The Eredar, refusing to be outdone by the pink haired demon below him, then came crashing down to his opponent with Shadow Magic enveloped in his hands. Natsu gritted his teeth seeing the Eredar falling toward him, but managed to counter the upcoming attack with his own hands enveloped in Fel Fire. Bringing his fist up and Osmoas bringing his fist down, both of their punches clashed once again, causing a large explosion of Fel and Shadow to burst throughout the battlefield they made.
When the smoke cleared, both Natsu and Osmoas were back on the ground, getting back on their feet. Both demons glared at the other as the resume their fighting positions.
"You sure don't know when to quit… do you?" Osmoas questioned the pink haired Fire Dragon Slayer before him with annoyance due to the pink haired demon refusing to die to him.
"The same can be said for you," Natsu responded with a small grin appearing on his face, "I refuse to fall to the likes of you, not when so much is at stake." This merely got the Eredar across from the Dragon Slayer to growl in anger.
"Your foolishness will be your downfall-" Osmoas started to reply back to Natsu…
…But then a powerful water attack slammed right into the Eredar's back, getting him to shout from the sudden hit.
Natsu got confused, as did Osmoas after he recovered, as the two demons looked behind, or in Natsu's case, further forward pass the Eredar, only to see a certain blue haired woman not too far from them with her hand sticking out, showing that she was the one responsible for the sudden surprise attack.
"Juvia?!" Natsu shouted in both confusion and worry, knowing that the Eredar would now target her, "What are doing here?!"
"Juvia has come to aid you Natsu." The Water Mage stated, not at all bothered by the angered look the Eredar now had at her, gritting his teeth in fury by her interference in their battle.
"No Juvia! He's too dangerous!" Natsu attempted to warn her, not wanting one of the women he loves to get hurt.
Osmoas merely glared with hate at the blue haired woman, before he turned completely around, facing her fully.
"So… you wish to die by my hands? Then so be it!" Osmoas shouted as both Fel and Shadow magic enveloped his whole body, giving off a small shockwave from the corrupted energy he was giving off.
This got both Natsu and Juvia to widen their eyes as they felt the Eredar's power double just like that. It seemed that the demon refused to waste anymore time to attempt to get rid of the pink haired male and blue haired woman.
"Juvia! Get out here before-!" Natsu started to say, but was interrupted as Osmoas quickly turned around and launched a large slash of Fel was launched right toward the pink haired demon, getting him to cover his eyes from the smoke as well as sending him a few yards away, making him crash into the ground.
"Natsu!" Juvia shouted in worry for the Fire Dragon Slayer's safety, hoping that he was alright.
However, before she could do anything else, Osmoas then dashed right toward the blue haired woman…
*SLASH*
Juvia's eyes widen as the Eredar went past her with his sword in his hands, now behind Juvia a few yards away. The blue haired woman slowly looked down only to see a large slashed wound on her stomach as blood got all over the ground. The pain didn't even register to her as she then fell down on her knees, now clenching onto her now bleeding stomach.
"Hehehehehehe…" Osmoas chuckling could be heard from behind Juvia. The woman, trying to cry out due to the pain as her brain started to register the damaged nerves she received from the attack, "Not so confident now are you mortal?" He questioned with a smirked plastered on his face.
Juvia only managed to look behind her as the demon approach her. With the large wound she just received, as well as all of the blood coming out of the injury, she was too weak to move or act.
"Now… it's time to put you out of your pathetic misery, but have no fear," Osmoas started to say as he rose his sword into the air, intending to strike the woman before him down, "Your soul shall fuel the Fel."
Juvia, with tears being seen in her eyes and unable to act or move, merely shut her eyes closed as she awaited the sword to strike her down.
*ROOOOOAAAARRR*
A loud roar of fury got both Juvia and Osmoas to hear the demonic roar. Osmoas looked over to his left side…
…Only for a fist of Fel to slam right into the demon's race, getting the demon to shout from the hit as well being launched into a nearby building, which collapsed on top of the demon due the collision.
Juvia's eyes widen at seeing the demon being launched like he was nothing, before turning her head only to see both an enrage and worried Natsu, enveloped in Fel Fire, standing over her.
"Let me see it!" Natsu ordered her, with his tone leaving no room for argument. Juvia, knowing that he was talking about the large wound now plastered on her stomach, moved her hands over the bleeding injury.
Natsu got onto his knees in order to see the wound better. His face grew more worried at the sight of the large gash on her stomach. They couldn't wait to get her to Wendy or Rose in order to heal; otherwise she would lose too much blood. The pink haired male then looked at the blue haired woman right in the eyes as he spoke.
"Juvia, I can stop the bleeding, but it will hurt. Will you let me?" Natsu told her, completely concern present on his face, which for some reason made Juvia's heart beat faster than normal despite the current situation.
She didn't say anything, but slowly nodded, trusting the pink haired demon in front of her. Natsu then put both of his hands on the large gash on her stomach, ignoring the awful feeling he got from seeing the injury on the Water Mage. With both Natsu and Juvia taking a deep breath, the Fire Dragon Slayer went on to forcefully close with his flames. Juvia gritted her teeth from the pain she got from the cauterizing of her gash, but did her best to contain her urge to scream, though it didn't stop a few tears to form in her eyes.
Only a minute later, the action ended, leaving the wound completely cauterized and closed. Juvia couldn't help but take big deep breaths of air after going through that, it was unbearable, but it was better than bleeding out to death.
Before any of them could say anything else, a shout of anger got their attention as they turned to see Osmoas emerging from the wreckage with fury in his eyes.
"You dare strike me like that?! I will have your head!" Osmoas yelled in anger as he powered up with Fel and Shadow once more.
Natsu merely stood back up, making sure to stay in front of Juvia in a protective manner as anger flooded the pink haired demon's systems once more.
"…You hurt her," Natsu started to say, before slowly walking toward the Eredar as he went on, "You hurt Juvia. You won't get away with this alive." Natsu spoke in a low tone with such hate and fury that one would think was a different person speaking all together.
Natsu stopped walking as his magical energy begun to rise. Osmoas eyes widen from the sudden power increase by the pink haired demon, as well as the ground started to shake. Even Juvia was surprised at seeing the whole landscape being affected by Natsu's merely giving off the magical power.
The pink haired Fire Dragon Slayer then gritted his teeth in anger as he glared at the Eredar before him.
(Cue "I will show you" by From Ashes to New)
"YOU WILL PAY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO HER!" Natsu then roared out.
And without warning, a large piller of Fel Fire shot out from Natsu, piercing the very sky itself as the sky darkened and thundered. Both Juvia and Osmoas couldn't stop themselves from covering their eyes from the intensity of the flames as well as the large shockwave coming off from the pillar of Fel.
When the pillar and the shaking of the ground finally ended, both the blue haired woman and the Eredar eyes widen by what stood before them.
Natsu was still in his E.N.D form with Fel Fire enveloped him. But in addition to the Fel Fire, dark green lighting also enveloped the pink haired demon. This was a demonic take on Natsu's Lighting-Fire Dragon Mode.
Before Osmoas could utter a single word, Natsu suddenly appeared in front of the Eredar before slamming his empowered fist right into the other demon's stomach. This got Osmoas to cry in pain as well as cough up Fel blood. Refusing to let up, the pink haired demon continued to launch blow after blow to the Eredar of the Burning Legion/ With each hit Natsu got on him, a small shockwave formed from the blows. The barrage of fists ended as Natsu then slammed the Eredar right into the ground, before grabbing the demon's tail with both of his hands. With a roar, the pink haired Fire Dragon Slayer began to twirl the demon with enough speed before he chucked Osmoas into the air. Not allowing the demon in the air a moment to recover at all, Natsu then fired off a Fel Lighting-Fire Roar at the demon above, who was unable to cast a protection spell in time for the attack to collide with him, causing a roar of pain as well as filling the air with smoke.
The demon was about to come crashing down onto the ground, but before he could land Natsu charged at him once again before slamming his fist right into the demon's face once more. Osmoas would have been sent flying if it weren't for the fact that Natsu grabbed his tail again before he could be launch away. With a strong hold on the Eredar's tail, Natsu went on to slam the demon into the ground multiple times, with each blow causing a small crater to form underneath Osmoas as he continued to collide with the ground over and over again. After a long minute of this, Natsu once again launched him into the air.
Osmoas was now bleeding profusely from all over due to the constant damage he was receiving from the pink haired demon. Before he could even mutter a word, Natsu appeared right above him before he brought his fist down into the demon's stomach, getting both the Eredar and Natsu to come crashing back into the ground. But that didn't stop there. Due to the force of Natsu's punch both of them kept on going threw the ground, a loud explosion taking place as a result from the collision of them and the ruined ground.
"I'M ENDING THIS NOW!" Natsu roared as more Fel Lighting and Fire enveloped the both of them as they continued to break through the earth underneath them, "YOU WILL PAY FOR HURTING JUVIA! YOU WILL PAY FOR HURTING ONE OF THE WOMEN I LOVE!"
With the final roar of demonic fury in hand, Osmoas could only roar in both fury and pain as the Fel Lighting and Fel Fire consumed the Eredar.
Back on the surface, the amount of power that was unleashed in that attack caused a mighty explosion that shot up high into the sky, allowing nearby everyone that was in the town or near it to see it.
Juvia, who managed to get back on her feet and covered her eyes due to being so close to the large explosion as the shockwaves that emitted from it decimated the nearby building even more, completely reducing them all to rubble. The Rain Woman then uncovered her eyes to see the large amount of smoke that now filled the area due to the explosion.
But before she could utter anything, she saw a figure coming out of the smoke. After a few moments of silence, a large smile formed on her face as she saw who it was.
Out of the smoke and ashes Natsu appeared, no longer in his E.N.D form or his Lighting-Fire Form as he walked over to where she was. A large grin plastered on his face, despite his own wounds and completely drained from all of the magic he released.
However he only got so far as he fell on his knees, as he was completely drained, of both magic and stamina. Juvia saw this, and thus ran over to the pink haired male, or as fast as one can when they just had a large gash on their stomach cauterized.
"Natsu!" She exclaimed as she managed to arrive at him, getting on her own knees in order to see him eye to eye, "Are you alright?!" She asked him, worried that he may have gotten hurt during the fight. The pink haired male merely let out a small laugh at her concern.
"I'm alright Juvia, are you okay?" Natsu asked her, though a small smile was still seen on his face as he asked his question. The Water Mage couldn't help but smile back.
"Juvia's fine, thanks to you Natsu… Juvia… didn't think you would go so far for her." Juvia admitted, getting Natsu to laugh a little once again.
"Of course I would," Natsu started to say, before looking directly in her eyes with a kind smile, "I love you."
Juvia didn't know what prompted her from her next action, but that didn't stop her from slamming her lips into his, to which he happily returned.
There we go! Now Juvia is officially a part of the harem in-story now like the others who officially got with Natsu. You know I can't help but feel like some of these confessions with Natsu and the girls are more intense than others, but hey, what can you do?
See you all next time, whenever that will be.
