She longed to learn who she was and only he had the answer. Problem? He was in Sabertooth and she was in Fairy Tail, two rival guilds. On the road to get answers, she finds herself falling for his partner. [StingxOC] [RoYu] [NaLu] Other pairings inside.
The Shadow's Light
Sting X Nina (OC)
New Power!
"What you said does not sound like one in league with Zeref the Black Wizard." Kagura said, her hand on her sword.
"I am not 'in league' with him. Zeref the Black Wizard is my father." The man announced.
"Zeref's son?" Nina questioned.
"My name's Larcade Dragneel. I am the son of Zeref Dragneel." Larcade said.
"Eh? That's the same last name as Natsu!" Nina said.
"You were unaware? Natsu is my father's younger brother. That would make him my uncle."
"... Natsu's an..." Nina's brain fried at the idea of her friend being an uncle.
"I have been truly looking forward to meeting him during this battle. After all, Father seems to consider him more important than myself. And what son can forgive that, I ask you?!" He questioned before sending blades of light towards them, Kagura either dodging or blocking most before she sliced the mountain in half to get him down, making him summon those tendrils again. "You, too, shall have a taste of pleasure!"
Nina took a step to help before finding herself back in the same position with the tendrils. "Gah. K-Kagura..." She panted as her mind was sent back into that world that only her Sting could take her to. "Nooooo! Ahh..." She was stunned at the whimpers she only reserved for Sting that came out.
"No... N-Nina..." Lector said.
"I shall show you heaven as you die!" Larcade stated over the sounds of panting and moaning.
Her hands moved on their own to try to help, but it hurt to even move her hands from their positions on her breasts and hip. Her nose couldn't smell anything other than her own arousal thanks to this magic. Nina panted to try and keep her mind, but found it slipping away as she stared at the one casting the spell that had her and everyone piles of shivering bodies: Larcade. Currently, she had punched her gut to snap herself out of it and try fighting, but found herself right back under the spell he called 'Pleasure'. It was setting a fire inside her so strong that she couldn't stand and felt more her clothes melting away. She glanced at Lector, Froche, Shina, Kagura and Yukino, all who were fighting the hold too. Suddenly, she felt her mind slipping away as she continued panting.
"If.. If you're out there... PLEASE! YOU'RE OUR LAST HOPE, STIIING!" Lector called.
Nina was shocked, as if Lector's words were magic, Sting appeared and kicked Larcade, breaking the spell.
"I can't help but be fashionably late!" He said, landing in front of Nina.
"My... love..." She said, exhausted as she regained her mind once more.
"Sting..!" Yukino said, smiling at Nina. "Your guy... took his time, eh...?"
Shaking her head, she smiled before noticing how battered he was and thinking how much they could really endure. Their eyes connected and she saw him smirk in a way that reminded her of when they met.
"Looks like you did quite the number on my guildmates and my fiancé in my absence." He said.
Nina still felt the love whenever he said that. She looked to her hand and saw the engagement ring shimmering against the scrapes on her hands before watching him punch the other mage a few feet away.
"Did you honestly expect a meager attack to have any effect?" He said, sending holy magic to attack Sting.
Nina smirked a little as he ate the attack, knowing 'white' magic was his food. "Silly..."
"The hell is this stuff... Tastes kinda funny, really. But, it's making me feel kinda good now." He said, wiping his mouth. "Thanks for the meal, man... Nothin 'white' is gonna work on me. Guess that's one of the many perks of being the White Dragon Slayer." He then glared. "I can already tell you and I aren't gonna get along. Your very stench reminds me of my good friend Natsu."
Nina took her time to stand, getting some assistance from Sting. "His last name is Dragneel... Like Natsu's... That would mean..."
"Natsu is Zeref's younger brother... and the man here... is Zeref's son." Yukino explained.
Nina and Sting both looked slightly lost as she spoke. "I bet that's complicated."
He nodded. "Sounds like it... But, that's not the case in this case. Surely you've noticed the difference, Superwoman."
She tilted her head before nodding. "I didn't catch the difference before due to the spell he had on us. Natsu and Zeref smell completely different from each other, yet... He smells exactly like Natsu..."
"Yeah... Y'see, people's smells are different between brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers and children... Yet this guy smells exactly like Natsu." Sting explained to the other two who couldn't smell what they smelt.
Nina stared at the man who held her heart, knowing what he meant now that her nose could smell something other than her... pleasure. "Why is that?"
"That is because, in a sense, Natsu is also Zeref's child." Larcade said, sending another attack towards Sting, who only ate it again.
Nina rubbed her forehead. "Learn already: anything white or holy won't work on Sting... Show 'em, Champ."
"Right." Sting charged up his attack. "Holy Ray!" Sting first joined the open palms of his hands together, with all the fingers on one hand in contact with the corresponding ones on the other hand, and then separated his palms while keeping the fingers in contact through their tips. Light was generated in the hollow part between his hands, expanding from the holes between Sting's fingers. At this point, the White Dragon Slayer completely separated his hands, extending them horizontally at his body's sides as the light he generated takes the form of a large sphere, from which a number of white rays are fired towards the target, leaving their starting point in a curved trajectory to strike them. Larcade was thus bombarded by a barrage of beams which inflict heavy damage, striking him in rapid succession. He then bent his right arm backwards, the fist clenched, and extending frontwards a mildly bent left arm with tiny streaks of light gathering before the outstretched fingers from the surrounding area. He then rushed towards Larcade and punched him with his right hand, which was now covered in a very massive, horizontal column of light.
Larcade then used his Soul of the Forbidden Meal spell, smirking a little. "You cannot possibly endure this sensation of hunger."
Sting held his stomach. "I can barely... move a muscle..."
When Larcade threw his cross, Nina's body sprung into action, taking the attack head-on and getting flown back, to the stunned looks of those there, including Larcade.
"Impertinent wench... I thought I dealt with you." He said, glaring as she stood up.
"Never... Think I'm down..." She panted as Sting went towards Lector. "STING! Snap outta it!" She said, seeing his hunger-crazed eyes look at her in the same way right as she saw him as the most delicious looking food ever: Mira's homemade roll. "Mmmm..." She drooled, latching onto him, not far from one of the marks that showed he was her mate. That was before she snapped out of it in the same moment Sting did, the two of them knocking their friends out. "Sorry for tryin to eat ya, Champ."
"Hey, it's fine. I mean..." He leaned to whisper the next words. "I kinda eat ya for some snacks as well."
She flushed before rolling her eyes. "Perv..." Her eyes landed on Larcade, who was stunned. "He looks tasty enough... Wanna share him as a main course, dear?"
He smirked. "After you."
She kicked off, surrounding her fists in shadows. "You got that, idiot? You're gonna be our main course, so die!" As she swung, she was surprised she missed and was elbowed. "Damnit... I'm so hungry..." She looked up and saw Sting blocking another hit. "Sting..."
"How utterly futile." Larcade hit Sting's side as he skidded back, still protecting her. "Let me kill that wench and then you."
"As if... I'd let you hurt her... I am protecting my sacred treasure... I am the current guildmaster of Sabertooth!"
"Sabertooth? Never heard of it." He said as his cross impaled Sting, making Nina's heart shatter.
"STIIING!" She cried, hands shaking and she broke out of the spell. Around her, shadows stirred and covered her entire being, transforming her. "Leave. Him. Alone.." She demanded.
"You, on the other-hand, were once a member of Fairy Tail, so you are my number one target..." He said right before he found himself getting kicked away from Sting.
Sting looked on in shock as he managed to take the cross out, staring at his woman and the new form she held. "Babe..."
Her eyes were black with her ruby red eyes more snake-like as even more scales covered her skin, her locks were straight up and the flower floated down to rest in front of Sting. Her nails were longer, the fists completely covered in black scales to her elbows, the same covering her feet to her knees. Tiny black wings of scales appeared on her shoulders, coming out an arms-length out of said spot. Lightning also swirled around her form, adding to the glare she held.
"You will pay..." She said right as Sting stood behind her. "He is apart of Fairy Tail due to being with me. He has every right to intrude. It was because of my family in Fairy Tail... That they began to see the light and mostly..."
"It's also for Natsu's sake, damnit!" He added.
"In that case, there is no cause for concern. Natsu's soul will soon be set free as well... Because I've long decided that I shall be the one to kill him."
Nina shot off again, kneeing the mage hard in the gut. "You so much as go near him and I'll kill you first." Her head turned right as Rogue appeared.
"Rogue?!" Sting said, surprised.
"Sorry for the disappointment, but I'm running on fumes here. Milady sent me here as a special delivery. Eat me." He said as his shadow melted with Sting's, noticing his sister's rage. "You're hungry, right? Eat my magic."
"You can't be serious, I can't just eat a different magic." He then saw how Nina was keeping Larcade busy before nodding. "I got no other choice, do I? I've gotta help Nina."
Nina snarled as Larcade sent her skidding back, glancing at her man as he ate her brother's shadows, letting the magic merge inside him.
"So, the final desire I shall bestow on you two... Is that of sleep... However, the sleep that I grant is eternal." Larcade said, preparing another attack.
"QUIT RUNNIN YOUR MOUTH!" Sting shouted, entering his own Dragon Force as Rogue hit the ground, tired and exhausted. "I can't stand that damned smell of yours and I will not let you keep beating up my MATE!" The glare Sting gave would've made a normal man cower and run in fear.
"Love..." She said, in somewhat surprise before glaring at their enemy.
"And I cannot stand the fact that you two weaklings are still drawing breath."
Hearing 'weakling' sent Nina off, having heard that word too many times, especially during the Grand Magic Games. "Sting! Let's beat this fucker down!"
"Right! Lend me your strength, Rogue!" He said, showing he was in White Shadow Dragon mode as he stood next to Nina. "Ready, Lightning Shadow Dragon?"
"Whenever you are, White Shadow Dragon. I'm all fired up!" She nodded as they faced off against him again. At least she was a little more clothed than said man, with her sleeveless, golden-brown-colored tank top shirt with a turtleneck collar underneath her jacket with a red skirt and black heels, the shirt pretty much just around her breasts now from the beatings she had gotten, the skirt more frayed than normal. Her shoes were long gone from an attack earlier as was the jacket.
"I've been chasing Natsu as long as I can remember. My mate is a gift along the way... However, now you stand in my way." Sting said.
"With this very hand, I will purify Natsu's soul once and for all. Someone as weak and insignificant as you two hardly warrant my time or energies." Larcade said.
The two nodded and shot off at the same time. "Then have a taste of not only mine and Rogue's combined power, but that of our love, the spirit that is Sabertooth!" Sting said, the two's magic fusing as they mirrored a claw attack, her on the inside of his own attack, their other fists engulfed by lightning and shadows, respectively. As Larcade attacked, Nina melted them into the shadows, reappearing.
"Your white magic is offset by Sting's own power... While my sister..." Rogue said, exhausted as he watched on.
"Rogue and Lita's shadows will tear you apart!" Sting said, summoning white and shadows while Nina summoned lightning and shadows.
"This is a gift from Laxus Dreyer, my adoptive brother... FEEL THE THUNDER!" She said as Sting uppercutted Larcade into the heel of her right foot and leapt back to fuse their magic once again. "And if we combine their powers..." She and Sting said in unison, firing off a large blast with lightning, shadows and white light at the man.
"Combine as many people's powers as you like; combine all the 'love' you 'feel'; it matters not. You both cannot possibly resist the final desire... THE ETERNAL SLEEP OF DEATH: RIP!"
Nina thought quickly and, right as the spell was shot at them, yanked Sting into the shadows. In there, she smiled softly. "Lucky my reflexes are on point?"
He smirked and kissed her forehead. "Yeah... I can feel my senses sharpening already.."
"Welcome to the world of shadows, babe..." She teased and pointed. "We have unfinished business." It took her leading to show him how to travel, so even Larcade couldn't pin them down.
"Take this... Mine and Rogue's combined technique!" Sting said as he shot out of the ground from the shadows. "WHITE SHADOW DRAGON'S ROUGH SILK! GO, BABE!"
Nina appeared from one of the shadow strings. "LIGHTNING SHADOW DRAGON'S CRUSHING LARIAT!" Her arm hit the jugular of Larcade, nearly beheading him as she sent him spinning on the ground. "Time for your nap, bub." She said, panting.
"He's the only one going to sleep now." He added as the two leaned into each other and collapsed onto the ground. "I was so proud of ya, love..."
"And I was scared that I'd lose you... I lost it when I thought that..." She admitted tiredly. "That's why I went crazy."
"Hmph... Nothing can ever take me away, Lita... You know that.." He said against her forehead.
Phew... I LOVED Sting's fight with Larcade! It was amazing! So, I figured if Nina were injured or involved, his power would be even stronger when combined with Rogue's and added to with Nina's own Lightning Shadow Dragon powers. After this, I'll try to assume the events, since the manga's only TEN chapters away from ending.
