Been a while since I wrote a word for this story….my bad but here you. On another note I came up with my own theory or insight really concerning Acnologia apart from what we already know about him. During one of the Tenrou episodes Makarov refers to Acnologia as the Dragon of the Apocalypse nothing more and nothing less, later we learn from Zirconis' ghost that Acnologia is in fact an eighth dragonslayer. We know Dragonslayers can eat and use their own elements or in some cases use two, but what exactly is Acnologia's element? Now this is just an assumption on my part but if you recall etherion & the markings on Acnologia's body were similar in colour. Erza said that Etherion was made from pure ethernano or magic particles, have you figured out where I'm going with this yet? Remember when the tower exploded the tiny floating crystals or the magic particles that were floating in the air they were the same as the ones that were being drawn towards Acnologia's mouth when he used his roar to try and destroy Tenrou. This is me basically saying that apocalypse or chaos doesn't have one specific element because it's a fusion of multiple kinds of magic, basically saying he's the etherion Dragonslayer or something like that. Onto the current arc as it is because I don't believe Mashima will drag Fairytail out as Long as other Anime and Manga like Naruto and One Piece I think he's gonna try and finish things up with another 3-5 arcs. There are definite similarities between FT and OP like some of the characters but if I had any speculations for a future arc in both Fairytail and one piece I'd say it would have to be the death of a master/father figure for the main character. By this of course I'm saying that I believe as OP as both Shanks and Gildarts are something will happen to them for the sake of the story I don't know, I said more so in one piece than in Fairytail because of power of friendship I mean if you cut but just a smidge Hiro I would be so much more better, anyway I don't know how it would happen in one piece with Shanks but with Gildarts the only logical explanation I can think of is that after the war arc or empire arc whatever you call Natsu will get over confident in his abilities or something a run off to enact revenge for Igneel against Acnologia not realising as he is now he doesn't stand a chance because Zeref required the 12 plus an entire continent of mages just to equal an injured Acnologia in power which makes me think aside from E.N.D and the death god, Acnologia and Zeref will be the final clash but more likely Zeref because Natsu is tied to Zeref's life force or some shit like that if he dies Natsu dies meaning before Zeref dies Acnologia has to be dealt with and that's what the latest manga chapters have been hinting at. As I was saying Natsu will go off to get revenge but won't realise how far off the black dragon's abilities he is until it's too late and when he thinks it's all over Gildarts will come in to sacrifice himself for Natsu who will probably argue a say he wants to fight by Gildarts' side to the end which will force him to literally knock him out or throw him far enough away as so the dragon won't be able to find him. Wow long speculation much but it's just what I've put together from what we have in the anime and Manga thus far. Anyway enjoy the chapter

Yeah I want to return…I want to return to my family back in Earthland so bad, the memories I made with them are something I treasure I want to make more of but if I return that means I have to leave this family behind, it means I won't be able to make any more memories with you guys. Truly I actually don't what I want" Natsu replied to Mirajane before slumping down into his seat getting looks that were a mix of relief and sympathy from the Strauss' and Wendy.

The bluenette then smiled before placing her hand upon Natsu's who cocked an eyebrow in confusion at her action, "wherever you chose we'll support you because wherever you are we'll always be family right?" Wendy asked with a cheerful smile before unknowingly giving Natsu's hand a firm squeeze causing the slayer to straighten up in his seat. "…Wendy…" the pinkette said with a frown as he pulled the smaller girl into a hug while the Strauss' watch with content smiles on their faces, none of them however were prepared for what was to happen in the coming weeks.

2 weeks later

That's how things went by in the guild for the next two weeks or so no one suspected anything, not even when Wendy suddenly took fits of sickness in the morning mainly because they were too fixated on how open Knightwalker was being in her flirting with Natsu. Now it may have just been his imagination but Natsu swore every time that Knightwalker showed up he could see Wendy baring her teeth but that wasn't what confused him it was that her teeth had for the first time since consuming that X-ball her teeth were more fang like and her pupils had a more slit light appearance to them.

"Man I'm really getting sick of Knightwalker trying to get with me, even if she's hot as hell" Natsu said in an exhausted tone as he lay slumped over the bar top, but jumped in his seat when he heard Wendy give a deep growl something he noticed she had been doing more of recently especially when the topic of Knightwalker come up. "What was that Natsu I don't believe I heard you right" Wendy said through gritted teeth as she exuded a murderous aura, one that Natsu had come to associate with pain. This was another Natsu had noticed he could swear Wendy's hearing was getting better, however he had a problem facing him now so thinking quickly on his feet he looked for an excuse, "Oh wait what's that? You need with some stuff out back Mira? Yeah don't worry about it I'll help" Natsu said and before Wendy could protest the dragonslayer had left a still fairly solid afterimage of himself.

This was becoming a fairly regular thing between Natsu and Wendy, Natsu knew Wendy hated the topic of Knightwalker and that it struck a nerve for her but it wasn't a completely avoidable subject but something was off and by off it was that she usually had some tolerance to the subject but now it was like the mention of her name was taboo or pure poison.

"Natsu you think you can get away from me, just because you have super human hearing doesn't mean the rest of us are deaf" Wendy said with a stern face applying a death grip to the slayers shoulder with one hand and pointed to her ear with the other. Natsu trying his best not to scream like a little girl because of the pain he was in slowly turned around to see a not too pleased Wendy standing with an 'I'm waiting' on her face. Natsu was about to answer when he caught a faint but very familiar scent "No way!" Natsu shouted in his head as he started looking frantically around the guild for the source of the scent causing others to think he'd gone mad and more specifically one bluenette to become worried for his health, "Natsu are you alright?" Wendy asked this time her voice carried a tone of worry to it which caught the slayer's attention but caused him to smile.

"Don't worry I'm fine I just need to make sure I'm not….." "Hey who do you think you are?" Natsu heard Lucy asked crouched down in front of a table gaining the attention of all the guild members, it was then the scent from earlier became stronger causing Natsu to stiffen, "He's here?" the slayer asked himself as he took an involuntary, "Oi Lucy what's going on here?" Natsu found himself asking, it was as if someone was playing puppeteer with his body, like he had no control over.

Happy POV

I honestly didn't know what was going on, we'd found Fairytail, me Wendy and Carla had found it together by ourselves but something seemed off. "Something seems wrong lets investigate" I heard Carla say, god she's so smart and pretty and smart and did I mention pretty and oh they're going on without me.

"Whoa this place is freaky guys I mean why does Gray have so many clothes on, why is he head over heels for Juvia, why is Juvia wearing so little and why is she so repulsed by Gray!" I practically shouted out although it was more of a whisper as it was only loud enough for Wendy and Carla to hear. Still after what Mystogan had revealed to me specifically I found my eyes roaming this weird version of our Fairytail, while he didn't tell us the specific about this world he told, he told 'he' was here I was going to be damned if I was going to leave him behind.

"Hey who do you think you are snooping around our guild?" a very Goth version of Lucy asked us in a menacing tone gaining all of our attentions, "LUCY!" the three of us shouted in unison before a very familiar voice caused me to freeze where I lay on the ground, "Oi Lucy what's going on here?" I heard the voice ask, my heard creaked slowly towards the source of the voice and my eyes immediately began to tear up.

Mystogan had told me Natsu was still alive but part of me was thinking this moment had to be dreaming but the rest of me wanted it more than anything to be true as the man I consider to be my father, brother, partner and best friend stood before me my body started moving on its own accord as I removed my helmet and started to sprint towards him, "NATSU!"

Normal POV

"NATSU!" the blue exceed cat cried out as it flung itself into Natsu's arms, "Happy, how", "Natsu it's terrible everyone from Fairytail has been stolen Mystogan said that the King did it, if we don't hurry we s won't be able to save them!" Happy said in a desperate voice while two figures Natsu didn't recognise, well one looked fairly similar to Wendy except a smaller, timider version of her, the other was a white cat that appeared to be similar to Happy but was female.

"What do you we won't be able to save them?!" Natsu asked in serious tone as he looked his partner in the eye "Mystogan said the king was going to use them as a source of magic power" Happy said in a desperate voice before he felt a missed familiar sensation of the flaring of Natsu's magic except this was far more powerful than it had ever been "Natsu you can use magic!" Happy shouted in surprise before the dragonslayer calmed down.

"We're going to the capital now" Natsu said before walking over to the smaller Wendy "Hey there, by any chance is your name Wendy?" Natsu asked in a gentle voice as the Edolas version came over beside him. "Y-yes, how'd you know?" she asked curiously as she shuffled on the spot "I'm sure Happy told you I'm from Earthland but this here is the Edolas version of you, I assumed because you looked like her" Natsu said while pointing to the Edolas Wendy who the Earthland version just noticed and to saw that she was jealous, embarrassed and a very envious of how opposite they looked compared to each other was an understatement.

"THAT'S ME!" Wendy shouted out in disbelief while the Edolas version of her just smirked at her before folding her arms under her breasts, "That's right squirt, jealous much?" Edo Wendy taunted while flashing her smirk that revealed developing fangs causing Wendy's eyes to widen and Natsu to sigh in exasperation. "Wait your from Edolas you can't have…unless you two, unless you two….eh, eh!" Wendy tried to say but couldn't upon realising how embarrassing it was, this could clearly be seen from her scarlet face, the mental break down she and the steam coming from her ears.

The Edolas version of herself continued to smirk while Natsu looked on with a clueless expression on his face, "I don't know what you two are talking about but here you three need to take one of these, Mystogan gave them to me, I'm running low but there should be enough for all for a few days. They're called X-balls and they'll allow you to use magic here" Natsu explained while holding out his hand that contained said magical medicine.

After the three had taken the X-balls they felt their magic surge back to life, "T-this is amazing I can feel my magic again" Wendy exclaimed in surprise causing Natsu to grin "Okay let's go show this King what a couple of Dragonslayers can do!" Natsu said while a devious grin spread across his face, however before he could speak up any further "All right guys lets go" Edo Wendy said wile baring her slight fang like teeth and sliding to baton like weapons into either side of her belt. "Wendy you can't come with us, I know you can handle yourself in a fight but we'll be going up against the entire Kingdom here and I don't plan on giving you an X-ball after the last incident" Natsu told Wendy causing her to let out a slight growl which surprised Carla, Wendy and Happy but not Natsu because it had gotten quite common when she was upset.

"What was that, it sounded like she growled?" Carla asked in a curious tone while looking to Natsu or Wendy for answers, "Um it's a bit embarrassing to explain" Wendy answered in a shy manner, "Beats me she's been like this for a while now but although I'd be lying if I sad it didn't turn me on" Natsu replied in a neutral tone while thinking the last part. "Natsu I am coming that's an order!" Edo Wendy said while emanating a malicious aura that caused Natsu to shrink on the spot and reminded the other three of a certain scarlet haired re-quip mage back in Earthland.

"Yes dear!" Natsu immediately replied completely shocking happy to his core "Dear?!" the blue feline called out before regaining his composure "He LLLiiikkkeeesss you" he then added his trademark comment causing the taller bluenette to look down at him "Of course he does, he's my boyfriend" she stated while clinging to said dragonslayer who could only smile in response. "Hmm it's no fun when you don't get upset" Happy complained while folding his arms across his tiny chest, "Aren't you forgetting that we still have to rescue everyone else from the guild" Carla said in a stern voice regaining everyone's attention.

"Your right, fine Wendy you can come but only if you stay with Happy, Happy stay close to Wendy and if things get to out of hand you take Wendy and get out of there" Natsu said in a serious demanding voice making happy nod in understanding, "Um Natsu what should we do to avoid confusion between me and my Edolas self because I would still like to be called by my name" Wendy said in her usual shy manner. "I suppose it would be confusing calling both of you Wendy" Natsu said in puzzled tone as he scratched the back of his while looking at 'his' Wendy.

"It is okay I'm not really fond of my name anyway something about felt weird to me" the Edolas Wendy spoke up in a cheerful tone surprising the others "Okay, if that's what you want, but what do I call you now?" Natsu asked in an unsure tone with a curious look plastered on his face. "Well I've never really thought about names that liked much but I'll leave it up to you, my hair is blue and remember what happened when I took that X-ball, the magic I had then so work from that until you come up with a name for me you can just call me darling or honey okay!" Wendy said in a neutral tone although the last part came out in a mixture of sternness and a sing-song like tone.

"Yes darling" Natsu sagged in defeat as he knew there never actual was a chance of her backing down from this, "Alright lets go, Carla you can take Wendy and Happy you take…darling, don't worry about me I can keep up with you no problem!" Natsu then continued with a grin which faltered in embarrassment at having to call Wendy darling but soon returned to his usual grin.

"Aye sir!" Happy replied in a determined voice before he summoned a small pair of while angelic feathery wings on his back and picked up 'Darling' preparing to take off, "This is gonna be just like the old days!" the blue feline screamed inside his head while Carla picked up Wendy, "One question you ruffian how exactly do you plan to keep up with me and the Tom cat?" the stuck up feline asked causing Natsu to smirk "I have my methods but I should be the one saying how do you plan on keeping up with me?" he replied with a devious smirk on his face.

"Follow me if you can!" Natsu shouted as his feet lit ablaze in a mixture of white and red flames before he shot out through the guild doors at incredible speed leaving the other three Earthlanders once again stupefied however Wendy huffed a sigh of exhaustion before her lips morphed into a faint smile "I suggest you follow him now and quick unless you plan on losing him" she suggested snapping the two felines back to reality causing them to chase after the pink haired slayer using their max speed.

It only took them a few seconds to catch up but that was mostly due to Natsu easing off enough for them to do so, "Are you sure this is the right way to capital?" Wendy asked as everyone speeds started to even out enough to let her talk, "I've been their once against my will mind you but I remember the way there" Natsu said in a neutral tone while a tick mark grew on Wendy's forehead as she knew exactly what incident Natsu was referring to, "I swear I'll kill that skank" she muttered under breath but both slayers heard her with their super sensitive hearing.

About an hour later and the group had decided that they had travelled enough for now as they didn't want to exhaust their magic reserves or well the exceeds in this case but Natsu was also burning through his magic as well although not as fast due to mixing it with his curse power. Although Natsu didn't pay much attention to what anyone said during that hour because he was too busy trying to think up a name of for Wendy as to avoid having to refer to as darling or honey for the rest of his life not that he minded but it was just that bit embarrassing and slightly cheesy.

While everyone was resting in a cave situated near and outlook that oversaw a small town Natsu sat against a tree near the edge of the outlook with a look of deep concentration on his face, his disappearance from the group didn't go unnoticed by a certain blue haired non magic user who was starting to fear that as she had put it Natsu had fallen prey to a certain scarlet haired skank so of course she went looking for him.

"What you doing here on your own we need to discuss our action plan for infiltrating the kingdom?" she asked upon finding the pinkette, curiosity laced in her voice. "Nothing much just thinking of a new name for you, I think I have one but if you don't like it I have others" he replied nonchalantly with his attention still focused on the town below, "Really let's hear it then, whatever it is I'm sure I'll love it" she said in a rather excited tone. "Well there are lots of human languages and the same name in one language can mean a different thing another" Natsu started before he turned to Wendy who had a bored expression on her face "Are you gonna tell me the name or give me a lecture of human culture?" she asked rather sarcastically. "Violet, in some languages in can mean blue or purple flower, so how do you like it?" he replied in a neutral tone before smiling at the end.

"I love it from now on my name will be Violet Dragneel!" she exclaimed before pulling Natsu into one of her usual bone crushing hugs luckily over the past two years he had gotten used to them so it wasn't as bad as what it once was. "Wait since when was your last name Dragneel!?" Natsu shouted in shock, "Silly if we're going to be together it will be forever and ever so I'm obviously gonna take your last name" the now named Violet replied in a very yandere like manner causing a slight chill to crawl up the slayers spine but it ultimately turned into a smile.

"I guess from here own out we're the Dragneels"

Anyway hopefully I'll be able to update a few of my stories this week because I have study week from today onwards until next Friday until next time.
