[E.N.D speaking] (In Natsu's Head)
*Onomatopoeia*
As Natsu prepared himself for the worst the two Maroon Dragons both stood on their hind legs, their massive wings spread out in a glorious display of superiority.
The dragons both let out a vicious roar before slamming their arms into the ground making the ground tremble.
Suddenly the cracks began to form.
The cracks glowed with a earthy yellow and multiple, large spikes continuously rose up out of the ground and headed straight for Natsu.
Natsu felt a chill go up his spine though it was more out of excitement than fear. He watched as the two groups of spikes approached him from the back and the front.
Natsu widened his legs and bent his knees, lowering himself closer to the ground. He had his back hunched over slightly and his fist were placed by his hips.
Natsu closed his eyes as chaos energy gathered on his forearms. The rumbling and the vibration of the two dragon's attacks was the only thing he could use to locate the attacks but it was plenty.
The rumbling grew louder and the vibrations became more intense. By now the chaos energy had formed two demonic looking black gauntlets with dark blue outlines.
"Chaos Dragon." Natsu's eyes shot open and without even looking he punched at the incoming attack a loud *crack* and the feeling of his fists hitting the cold earth let him know he'd timed his attack perfectly.
"Impact gauntlet." The chaos energy that had gathered in Natsu's forearms moved towards his fist and then shot out in a beam that pierced through the earthen spikes and made their way to the Maroon Dragons at the other end.
But the attacks never hit as the dragons flew away with a quick flap of their wings.
Natsu clicked his tongue and watched the hornless dragons reunite with the others.
There they were, a sight that'd make any other ten year old soil their pants in fear but all Natsu felt was annoyance as he saw the five Maroon Dragons flying in the air.
"Now you're running!? Don't think that I can't kill you just because I can't fly!" He shouted however as soon as he had finished speaking a wave of exhaustion washed over him.
Natsu fell on to one knee and began to pant. A few beads of sweat rolled down his face and fell off, landing on the ground.
Five consecutive tremors alerted Natsu that the pack had landed and soon he felt a familiar vibration in the ground only much stronger
Once again the ground cracked and a golden light spilled forth as the four hornless dragons attacked with their earthen spikes.
Natsu pushed off the ground as fast and as hard as he could, leaping backwards he gave himself some distance and inspected the attack that approached him.
Natsu built up the strength in his legs then pushed himself towards the attack as fast a he could, his senses were being used to their utmost limits to prevent any sort of surprise attack.
In the blink of an eye he plunged himself directly into the multiple spikes that were launched towards him. Now that he was within Natsu swiftly weaved his way through the miniscule gaps that the spikes created.
Soon enough Natsu emerged before the two hornless dragons. He had pushed off of one of the spikes, it crumbled form the force and Natsu soared into the air. His clothes were torn and his skin had multiple thick red lines scattered about it.
However these were only superficial wounds and they didn't affect his strength in the slightest.
Natsu's gaze turned cold as he approached the two annoyances in front of him. "Surrender or die!" He shouted and the two hornless dragons roared in defiance.
Natsu chuckled. "Very well." He spread out his arms and calmed his breathing. Shortly after chaos energy formed above his limbs. The chaos energy morphed and formed an arm, it finished in a hand complete with four deadly looking claws. The arm resulted in Natsu gained a good five inches of reach as they passed his hands and extended outwards.
"Chaos Dragon's Phantom Talons." Natsu's voice held little emotion within. Even if there were it would only be a slight amount of anticipation or excitement.
Because Natsu was so high up in the air the two hornless dragons believed he would not be able to attack them and also at this time the other two hornless dragons had taken to the air and were closing in on him.
No matter how they looked at it Natsu had no way to attack them especially since they had seen him show signs of exhaustion not to long ago.
Natsu had already taken notice of the other two airborne dragons but decided to ignore them for now.
'First, I'll deal with the ones down there.' He thought, his body relaxed and he began to nose dive downwards. Seeing this the two grounded dragons readied themselves, their claws glowing golden.
'You think I'd just let you attack me?' Natsu chuckled at the level of intelligence the dragons were currently displaying. He reared his right fist back, the phantom talon moving with it and then he punched out.
The phantom talon extended suddenly and raced towards the dragons at amazing speeds. Before the dragon that had placed itself on the left could react it felt an immense force collide with the top of it's head.
With a *crash* the dragon's head fell to the ground. Natsu's phantom talon retracted and then was shot out again.
It flew and collided with the other Maroon Dragon, knocking it down the same as it had done to it's companion.
Natsu looked down, the phantom talon on his right arm retracting. Two roars sounded out from his right and left causing the air itself to shake around him.
Natsu breathed deeply and then exhaled before spinning his body in midair. Both of the phantom talons on his arms extended and they slammed into the charging hornless dragons knocking them away.
Breathing heavily, Natsu let his body fall down, his body went limp and before he knew it he had hit the ground with a quiet *thud*.
He was breathing heavily, breathing in massive gulps as if he was trying to swallow the air itself. Slowly he pushed himself up onto his knees.
Once again sweat rolled down his forehead and dropped onto the brown earth beneath him. His pink locks hung in front of his eyes, they had turned a shade darker from absorbing the sweat.
His body felt weak, his muscles ached, his mind pounded against his skill and his heartbeat thumped against his ribs. Exhausted, tired, strained, pained.
With clenched fists Natsu pushed himself up to his knee, as he did he wa suddenly trapped within a ring of large earth spikes that towered over him. There was an opening above him but he was too tired to even try to get out.
Soon the single horned dragon finally made it's appearance. It hovered over the opening and gazed down at Natsu.
The horned dragon's belly glowed orange. It was dull at first but began to brighten more and more. Soon the glow started to make it's way up the neck of the Maroon beast.
Natsu knew what was coming. It was a breath attack, one that was most likely going to be used at full power. Without hesitating Natsu began to push his magic absorption to the limits.
He was absorbing ether nanos so fast that it was visible to the naked eye. White rivers of ether nanos flowed freely into Natsu's body.
'You think you can kill me just like that?' Natsu thought as he felt his body slowly regain strength. Bit by his magic container filled up. Given just a few minutes he would have been able to completely recover, unfortunately it was not meant to be.
Orange colored flames were spewing out of the horned dragon's mouth at this point. With a mighty roar the flames burst forth plummeting towards Natsu with the intent to kill.
Natsu was at about 40% of his maximum. 'Shit, it's not going to be enough!' Natsu saw the flames bearing down on him.
In a final effort he thrust his hand upwards and a blackish blue magic circle appeared just above it. The flames crashed into the magic circle and cracks formed almost instantly.
Natsu grunted in pain, his knee sunk into the ground. His teeth gritted against each other cracking from the pressure. "Haaaaaah!" Natsu gave a roar of defiance as he struggled against the might of the flames.
More cracks appeared on his magic circle and Natsu was pushed even further down into the ground. The cracks became more prominent and neared the centre of the circle.
'More! I need more power! More!, more!, more! Even more power!' Natsu other arm raised up, strengthening his defence by a bit, and he gave another mighty roar from the depths of his soul.
Just then something deep and immense flowed throughout his body. It rushed through his veins violently and merged itself with every fiber of his being.
Natsu himself could feel his body surge with power. On his arms dark blue tribal tattoos began to snake upwards. Natsu saw the tattoos reach up to his shoulders and then *booom!* The flames exploded.
Countless fragments of stone flew out in every direction as the explosion decimated the spikes surrounding the pink-haired dragonslayer.
All five dragons had taken to the air, waiting to see the results of their efforts. By all means the child should have died however they couldn't help but feel that something was wrong.
There was a stillness in the air making the beasts nervous. Just then there was a massive swirling of ether nanos, compared to the rivers from before this was more like a whirlpool.
Natsu was greedily in taking all of the magic energy he could withstand. The feeling was amazing, like eating till a full stomach after days of starvation.
He stood there, his eyes closed and a peaceful expression gracing his features. After a couple of minutes Natsu stopped the intake and simply stood still.
To the dragons however this peaceful expression was not comforting in the least. They felt their bodies grow cold.
Natsu slowly lifted his eyelids and turned his gaze up towards the dragons. "I thank you, really I do." Natsu's voiced flowed like water but contained an immense amount of power.
The pink-haired dragonslayer lifted his arm and inspected the tattoos on his arm. "Dragonforce. I the k you for letting me obtain this power. In exchange I'll make your deaths quick."
Natsu's raised arm was thrown down by his side and simultaneously his magic power exploded. Spiderweb shaped cracks spread out from where he stood. A cloak of chaos energy encased Natsu making his figure barely visible (similar to when rogue went dragonforce). "Prepare yourselves."
So sorry for how long this chapter took :p
