Mizu was standing next to her father in front of the Fairy Tail guild doors. Lucy was with them, and she seemed so excited to be here.
Happy: "Welcome to Fairy Tail!"
Natsu kicked open the doors and Hana ran inside.
Natsu: "WE MADE IT BACK ALIVE!"
Happy: "We're home!"
Mizu giggled as she ran over to Mirajane. Mira smiled and helped the young girl on a stool at the bar and gave her some milk, which she happily drank.
Man: "So I heard you went all out in Hargeon Natsu, had to go start causing trouble."
He didn't get to finish his sentence as Natsu flew at him and kicked him in the face. Mizu looked over and giggled at her father's actions.
Natsu: "You lied about that Salamander! I'm going to kick your butt!"
The man got up and held his face as he glared at Natsu.
Man: "Don't get mad at me! I'm not the one to blame here! I'm just passing along a rumor I heard!"
Natsu: "It was just a rumor!"
The next thing Mizu knew, tables were thrown into the air by her father fighting.
Happy: "Now, now, Natsu. I think you need to calm down."
A guild member slammed into him, causing him to fly into the air and hit more guild members, causing them to join the fight. Mizu got worried for her brother.
Mizu: "Happy!"
She jumped off the stool and ran over to Happy. She picked him up before running over to Lucy to hide behind her legs. Lucy stood there in awe.
Lucy: "Oh wow! I'm standing inside the Fairy Tail guild hall!"
Gray; "So Natsu finally made it back, huh?!"
Mizu looked over at Gray and Lucy quickly covered the young girl's eyes. Gray stood up from the stool he was sitting on and started walking over to the fight.
Gray: "It's time we settle things once and for all!"
Cana: "Gray, your clothes."
Gray: "I don't have time for that!"
Lucy looked over at Cana to see her drinking at the bar. Mizu giggled and ran over to Cana. She saw the little girl and smiled.
Mizu: "Cana, look what I got from Hargeon!"
She held up a small plus toy of a dragon and Cana smiled. She patted Mizu's head.
Cana: "That's sweet Hana. Did Natsu buy you that?"
Mizu grinned and nodded her head. Everyone in the guild thought that Natsu and Mizu were siblings and not father and daughter. So, they never questioned Natsu buying her things or taking her out on missions. Only Gray knows the truth.
Gray: "Come here and fight me, Natsu!"
Natsu: "Not until you put some clothes on!'
Elfman: "It's only noon and you boys are already whining like spoiled babies. I'm a real man! You want me to prove it to ya!?"
Mizu giggled as she watched as her father and uncle took down Elfman with one hit. She got up and ran back over to Lucy who was talking to Mirajane.
Lucy: "Um, don't you think we should try to stop them or something?"
Mizu: "No, it's fun!"
Mirajane giggled and nodded her head.
Mira: "Mizu's right. It's always like this around here. I just leave them alone. Besides-"
Suddenly Elfman crashes into her, and they crash into a table.
Mira: "It's kind of fun don't you think?"
She then passed out and her spirit floated above her body. Lucy started to freak out when suddenly a body slammed into hers causing her to fall. She looked behind her to see Gray looking at Natus pissed off.
Gray: "Give me back my underwear jerk!"
Natsu smirked and laughed as he swung Gray's underwear. Gray got up and looked over at Lucy. She quickly covered Mizu's eyes and Natsu's eyes widened when he saw his daughter near a butt-ass naked Gray.
Gray: "Excuse me, miss. Could I please borrow your underwear?"
Natsu ran over and kicked Gray away from the girls. Lucy sighed in relief.
Lucy: "Watch where you're kicking the perv Natsu.'
He sighed and nodded his head.
Cana: "It's so loud. So much for having a drink to relax."
She then pulled out a card and held it in one hand in front of her as a green magic circle appeared from it.
Cana: "That's enough, you guys. I suggest that you knock it off."
Gray opened one hand and he put his fist on that hand as a blue magic circle appeared from his hands as he glared at Cana.
Gray: "Oh yeah? Says who?"
Elfman held up his arm as he screamed. A purple magic circle appears around his arm which turns into a bunch of rocks.
Loke: "You punks can be such a nuisance."
He lowered his hands close to his groin area as one of his rings glowed a green magic circle. Natsu grinned and held out his arms as fire wrapped around his fists as he stood proactively in front of Lucy and his daughter.
Natsu: "I'm ready for ya!"
Lucy got scared and held up Happy as a shield.
Lucy: "They always fight like this?"
Mizu grinned and nodded her head, getting excited for the fight, just like her father.
Happy; "Uh huh."
Lucy: "You don't seem worried."
Just then a giant stepped into the building, and he looked pissed off. Lucy looked at the giant, shocked and scared. But Mizu cheered and jumped up and down.
Makarov: "Would you fools stop picking like children!?"
The entire building froze as he entered the guild hall. There was a long and awkward silence and a few coughs here and there. Mirajane smiled.
Mira: "I'm sorry. I didn't know you were still here, Master."
Lucy looked at Mirajane shocked.
Lucy; "Did you just say, Master?!"
Natus started to laugh, and everyone looked at him shocked and scared that he was laughing. Mizu copied her father.
Natsu: "Man, talk about a bunch of babies! Looks like I won this round, you guys!"
The master stepped on Natsu with one foot and Mizu giggled. The master then looked over at Lucy.
Makarov; "Well, seems we have a recruit."
Lucy: "Yes, sir!"
The giant then screamed as he started to shrink into a smaller size. Lucy looked at him shocked. Soon the giant was nothing more than a tiny old man. He smiled and waved at Lucy.
Makarov: "Nice to meet ya!"
Lucy: "He's tiny! This little guy is really in charge here?"
Mira: "Of course he is. Allow me to introduce the Fairy Tail guild master, Makarov!"
The master then jumped into the air and crashed into the ceiling. Then he stood on the railing and cleared his throat. Mizu clung to her brother as she looked up at the guild master nervous about what he was going to say. He held some papers in his hands.
Makarov: "You've done it again; you bunch of clods! Just take a look at how much paperwork the Magic Council sent me this time! This is the biggest pile of complaints yet! Have you all lost your minds!? All you kids are good for is getting the higher-ups mad at me!"
Everyone looked down in shame, knowing that most of the complaints were their fault. They go overboard when they're on missions and destroy stuff. Most of them looked at Natsu annoyed because he's the one that mainly destroys stuff.
Makarov: "However..."
The papers suddenly combust into flames. Mizu giggled, as she held onto her brother.
Makarov: "I say to heck with the magic council."
He then threw the fire into the air and Natsu jumped and caught it. He landed on the ground, took some of the fire, and handed it to Mizu. She giggled and ate the fire. He smiled and ate his fire as well. People didn't think much of it, thinking Natsu was sharing fire with another fire dragon slayer. But Lucy and Gray knew the truth.
Makarov: "Now listen up. Any power that surpasses reason still comes from reason, right? Magic isn't some kind of miraculous power, it's a talent that only works when the flow of energy inside of us and the flow of energy from the natural world are in perfect synchronization. To perform magic, one must have a strong mind and the ability to focus. It should take over your being and come pouring out of your soul. If all we do is worried about following rules, then our magic will never progress. Don't let those blowhards on the council scare you! Follow the path you believe in! Cause that's what makes the Fairy Tail guild number one!"
He held up his number one finger and the guild cheered in agreement. Lucy smiled, getting excited.
(Time skip brought to you by a chibi Mizu eating fire)
Mizu stood next to her father as he was looking at the request board, trying to find a job that paid well, but wasn't TOO dangerous so he could bring his daughter on it. Just then Lucy ran over to them, looking excited.
Lucy: "Hey, Natsu! Look! Mirajane just put the official Fairy Tail mark on my hand!"
Natsu: "Oh yeah? That's cool. Welcome to the guild, Loony."
Lucy looked at Natsu shocked and annoyed that he got her name wrong.
Lucy: "The name is Lucy!"
Natsu ignored her and kept looking at the board.
Happy: "Make sure you pick one with a big reward Natsu!"
Natsu grinned and nodded his head. He looked at the request board and found something that looked good and safe that he could bring his daughter.
Natsu: "Wha...160,000 jewels to get rid of some thieves!"
Happy: "Sounds good to me!"
?: "How come my dad hasn't come back yet?"
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over to their master to see Romeo talking to him.
Makarov: "You're starting to work my nerves, Romeo. You're a wizard son, have faith in your father and wait patiently for him."
Romeo: "But sir, he told me he'd be back in three days, and he's been gone for over a week now!"
Makarov: "If I remember correctly, he took the job on Mount Haobe."
Romeo: "That's right, and t's not that far from here! So why won't somebody go look for him!?"
Makarov: "Listen, kid, your old man's a wizard! And like every other wizard in this guild, he can take care of himself. Now go home, have some milk and cookies, and wait!"
Romeo clenched his fists before punching the master in the face.
Romeo: "Jerk! I hate you all!"
With that, Romeo ran out of the guild in tears. Mizu clung to her brother, worried about Romeo. She grabbed her father's pants and tugged on it. Natsu looked down at his daughter, knowing what she wanted him to do...go look for Macao. He looked back at the request board, before punching it, causing it to crack. Everyone looked at him shocked and confused.
Nab: "What do you think you're doing!? You almost broke the board Natsu!"
He didn't listen to Nab as he picked up his daughter and stormed out of the guild. Lucy looked shocked and worried.
?: "This doesn't look good master. You know how he can be. I bet he's going to Mount Hakobe to save Macao."
Wakaba: "When is that kid ever going to grow up?"
Nab: "Who knows? Going after Macao isn't going to do anything except hurt his pride."
Makarov: "Remember Nab, we can't choose another's path. Just let him be."
Mira: "But I wish he didn't take Hana with it. It could be dangerous, and she could get hurt."
Lucy got worried for the seven-year-old girl, hoping she could protect herself, or at least her father could protect her.
(Time skip brought to you by a chibi Natsu breaking the request board)
Natsu groaned while they rode a carriage to get to Mount Hakobe. Natsu lay on the ground as his daughter sat on one of the benches. Happy sat next to her, as Lucy sat across from her, deciding to join them for some reason.
Natsu: "Why did you come with us?"
Lucy: "Well, one I thought maybe I could help, and two...they were starting to ask questions about why you brought Hana with you, and I didn't know if I could keep my mouth shut any longer."
Natsu groaned but nodded his head. Glad that Lucy was smart and decided to leave the guild hall instead of just blurting out his secret. Suddenly the carriage stopped.
Lucy: "I guess we're here."
Natsu jumped up from the floor and started cheering. Happy joined him.
Natsu: "Alright! We've stopped moving!"
Mizu giggled and grabbed her brother.
Driver: "I'm sorry, but this is as far I can get you."
The door to the cart opened and Lucy looked outside shocked at the blizzard. Mizu stepped out of the cart, not even bothered by the cold.
Lucy: "Where the heck are we Natsu?! It's a frozen wasteland!"
They got out of the cart and started walking up towards the mountain.
(Time skip brought to you by a chibi Natsu, Mizu, Happy, and Lucy walking up a mountain)
Lucy was walking behind the group as she wrapped her arms around her body and shivered from the cold.
Lucy: "Why is it so cold!? I know we're on a mountain, but it's summer right now! There shouldn't be a blizzard like this anywhere!"
Natsu: "That's what you get for wearing light clothing."
Lucy looked at Natsu annoyed, because he had no room to talk about wearing light clothing. He's only wearing a vest, some trousers, and his scarf. Mizu was wearing a red and blue sundress with the same scarf around her neck. Her father made it for her to match his.
Lucy: "Oh please! You aren't dressed for it! Now give me that blanket!"
She tried to grab the red blanket from him, and he looked at her annoyed. Mizu giggled before walking over to Lucy and wrapped her arms around her legs as she tried to warm her body. Lucy looked down at Mizu with a smile. She then got a good idea. She pulled out one of her keys and summonsed Horologium and Natsu and Happy looked shocked. Lucy snuggled the blanket around her and Mizu as she had taken the small child in the clock with her.
Natsu: "A clock! Whoa."
Happy: "That is so cool."
Lucy talked but they couldn't understand a thing she was trying to say.
Natsu: "Wait, I can't hear you. And why do you have my daughter in there with you?"
Horologium: "She says, I'm staying in here and I'm not coming out. And it's dangerous for Mizu so she's staying in here."
Natsu frowned, looking at the blond girl annoyed. Especially since she thinks she can tell him what's dangerous for his daughter.
Natsu: "Then why did you tag along? And don't tell me what's dangerous for my daughter."
Horologium: "What kind of crazy job would force Macao to come to a place like this?"
Horologium: "You should have asked before tagging along. Mizu says annoyed."
Natsu smirked and nodded his head. Proud of his daughter.
Natsu: "He went to slay a Vulcan. It's a big monster."
Lucy gasped in fear as she clung to both the blanket and Hana.
Horologium: "I want to go back to the guild! She proclaims."
Natsu: "Go ahead and be my guest. I say back."
Happy: "Aye!"
Mizu giggled and looked out the clock's window as she watched her father and brother walk further up ahead, calling out to Macao. Suddenly a giant Vulcan jumped down to them and her father glared at the Vulcan. She then watches as the Vulcan runs over to them in the clock and stares at them. The thump woke Lucy up and she looked at the beast shocked and scared.
Vulcan: "Me like human women!"
Natsu: "So it can talk, huh?"
The Vulcan trapped Horologium and took off with it and Lucy freaked out as she clung to Mizu for dear life. Natsu freaked out about his daughter being taken.
Natsu: "Hey, give me back my daughter!"
Happy: "Aye!"
Lucy: "Good to know that I'm wanted, you guys!"
(Time skip brought to you by a chibi Mizu and Lucy being taken by a chibi Vulcan)
The girls were in an ice cave as the Vulcan danced in front of them. Lucy looked so grossed out as she clung to Mizu. Soon the Horologium disappeared, and Lucy freaked out even more. She clung to the seven-year-old, trying to keep the child protected.
Natsu: "Hey! You big ape! Where's Macao? Tell me!"
He ran into the ice cave, only to slip and slide right into a wall. Mizu giggled at her father as Lucy looked at him annoyed.
Lucy: "Why does he feel like he has to make an entrance all the time?"
Natsu got up and the girls ran over to him and hid behind him. Mizu clung to her father's legs as she looked at the monkey. Natsu glared at the monkey, pissed off for stealing his friend from him and kidnapping his daughter.
Natsu: "Spill it, monkey. Where is my friend? You understand me, right? He's a human man. Now tell me where he is!"
Vulcan: "Man?"
Natsu: "That's right! Where are you hiding him!?"
Lucy: "Don't you think you might be jumping to conclusions?"
Vulcan: "Man!"
The Vulcan pointed somewhere and Natsu grinned as he looked shocked.
Natsu: "Hey, I think he's going to show me!"
He followed the monkey to a hole in the cave. Mizu got nervous as she clung to Lucy's legs. She didn't trust the monkey. She watches as her father pokes his head out of the hole.
Natsu: "Macao!"
The monkey kicked Natsu out of the cave and he fell off the cliff. Mizu and Lucy ran over to look out of the hole. Mizu teared up at the thought of losing the only parent she had left.
Lucy: "This is bad news! He can't survive out there!"
Mizu looked at Lucy shocked and scared. She started crying, which worried Lucy. She looked over at the monkey that was doing a weird dance. She glared at the monkey annoyed.
Lucy: "Alright, you pervy monkey! You're going down!"
She dropped the blanket, letting it fall to the floor. She then pulled out one of her golden keys.
Lucy: "Open Gate of the Golden Bull! Taurus!"
Suddenly a giant bull appeared from her key with an axe. She smirked as Mizu stopped crying and looked shocked.
Lucy: "I should warn you, monkey boy. Taurus is the most powerful celestial spirit that I have a contract with!"
The bull then looked over at Lucy and smirked.
Taurus: "Oh wow, Miss Lucy. I almost forgot what a nice figure you have. Why don't you come give me a smooch?"
lucy groaned as Mizu looked confused.
Lucy: "Oh right, he's a big perv too."
The monkey glared at the bull, annoyed.
Vulcan: "No touch my woman!"
The bull snapped his head over to the monkey, glaring at it annoyed and pissed off.
Taurus: "Your woman? Them's fighting words you Moo-nkey!"
Lucy:" Get him!"
The bull used his axe and hit the ground with it, but the monkey jumped out of the way and dodged the attack. The bull was then about to hit another attack on the monkey when Ntsu suddenly came out of nowhere and jumped into the air and kicked the bull to the ground. Mizu's eyes widened as tears formed in her eyes.
Mizu: "DADDY!"
Natsu looked over at the girls confused.
Natsu: "Hey, so how come there are more monsters now than when I left?"
Lucy: "He's a friend dummy! One of my spirits!"
Natsu looked at her confused before pointing over to the Vulcan.
Natsu: "That guy?"
Mizu: "No, not him Daddy, the bull you just knocked out."
Natsu nodded his head. Lucy looked at him shocked and confused.
Lucy: "Wait a minute. How were you able to survive out there?"
Natsu: "Happy came to save me. Thanks, little buddy!"
Happy smiled and nodded his head. Lucy looked at Natsu confused as she crossed her arms.
Lucy: "So you can't handle other modes of transportation, but flying with Happy is okay."
Natsu and Mizu looked at Lucy shocked and annoyed.
Natsu: "What kind of stupid question is that? Happy isn't a mode of transportation. He's my friend, I mean, duh."
Mizu: "He's your son!"
Natsu smiled and nodded his head.
Natsu: "Yes, sorry. I meant he's, my son."
Mizu giggled and nodded her head. Lucy looked at Natsu bored.
Lucy: "You're right. It was wrong of me to compare the two."
Vulcan: "My woman!"
The monkey jumped into the air and tried to smash Natsu with his fist, but Natsu stopped the attack with his fist. He glared at the monkey.
Natsu: "You listen up! I consider everyone in the Fairy Tail guild my friend!"
He kicked the monkey into the air, and it flew into the ground. Mizu watched with a grin on her face as she clung to Lucy's leg excited as she watched her father beat up the monkey.
Natsu: "Whether it's Gramps or Mira, or even those annoying jerks, Gray and Elman. Lucy and my daughter too! They're all my friends! Which is why...I'm not leaving without Macao!"
He lunges at the monkey as it smashes the ground of ice and the ice shatters. Mizu got worried for her father.
Natsu: "Your ice attack does not affect fire!"
Once the dust cleared, they all freaked out as the Vulcan had gotten its hands on Taurus's axe that he dropped when Natsu knocked him out.
Natsu: "That's not good."
Lucy: "He got Taurus's axe!"
The monkey then tried to hit Natsu with the axe, but he kept dodging until he slipped on some ice and landed on his back. The monkey tried hitting Natsu with the axe, but Natsu grabbed it with his hands. Mizu got worried for her father. She let go of Lucy's legs and ran over to her father. Lucy looked shocked and worried.
Mizu: "FIRE DRAGON ROAR!"
A blast of fire shot out of her mouth and hit the monkey. The monkey slammed right into the wall of the cave, knocked out. Natsu got up and looked at his daughter shocked and amazed that she took down a giant Vulcan by herself.
Happy: "We beat him!"
Natsu grinned and patted his daughter's head. Mizu giggled and looked proud of herself.
Lucy: "Yeah, but wasn't this monkey supposed to tell us where your friend is?"
Natsu: "Oh, I forgot about that."
Mizu nervously chuckled, but then a yellow circle of magic appeared under the monkey, and the next thing they knew there was a blast of light. Mizu covered her eyes before looking back at the monkey. She was shocked to see that the monkey turned into Macao.
Natsu: "Macao!?"
Lucy looked at Natsu shocked, but Mizu looked over at Macao feeling bad for hurting him now.
Lucy: "Are you telling me that big, perverted money was your friend this whole time!?"
Happy: "Yeah, he must have been taken over by that Vulcan."
Lucy: "What do you mean taken over?"
Happy: "Vulcans survive by stealing people's bodies and taking them over."
Lucy looked at him shocked, and they set up the blanket for Macao and patched him up.
Happy: "It looks like he put up a good fight before that Vulcan finally got to him though."
Mizu: "I feel bad for hurting him now."
Natsu frowned, not liking it when his daughter put herself down like this. He placed his hand on top of her head, and she looked up at her father confused.
Natsu: "Hey, you didn't know like the rest of us, so don't blame yourself. Had you not stepped in, I would have done the same to him."
She teared up but smiled and nodded her head. They suddenly heard the old man groan and looked down to see him waking up.
Natsu: "You're okay!"
Macao sighed and looked disappointed in himself.
Macao: "I'm so pathetic. I defeated nineteen of those brutes, but the 20th, that's the one that got me. I'm so angry with myself. I'm embarrassed to go home and face Romeo."
Lucy looked down at Macao shocked. Mizu grinned and looked excited.
Mizu: "Whoa! You defeated nineteen of those things all by yourself!? That's so cool Macao!"
Natsu grinned and nodded his head. Macao seemed a little bit happier about that.
Natsu: "What Mizu said! Now let's go home. Your little boy's been waiting for you."
Macao smiled and nodded his head. Natsu helped him up as Lucy smiled. Happy looked at her confused and creeped out.
Happy: "Why are you grinning like that Lucy? It's creepy."
Lucy frowned as she looked at Happy, annoyed.
Lucy: "I'll show you creepy. Watch your backs."
Mizu giggled as she picked up her brother and ran after her father and uncle.
(Time skip brought to you by a chibi Natsu carrying a chibi Macao)
They were walking down the street of Magnolia when they saw Romeo sitting on the stairs of a bridge.
Natsu: "Hey Romeo!"
The kid looked up and he gasped as he saw his father. Tears fell from his eyes as he jumped off the bridge, ran over to them, and jumped onto his father in a tight hug, knocking them both down.
Romeo: "Dad! You came back! I'm so sorry Dad!"
Macao: "No, I'm sorry for making you worry."
Romeo: "I can handle it. Cause I'm a wizard's son!"
Macao: "Next time those bullies pick on you, here is what I want you to say. Can your old man defeat nineteen monsters by himself? Cause mine can."
Romeo grinned and nodded his head. He then looked over at where Natsu and the others were talking away.
Romeo: "Natsu! Happy! Mizu! Thanks for your help!"
Natsu: "No problem kiddo!"
Romeo; "Lucy! Thanks for helping to bring my Daddy back to me!"
Lucy smiled and nodded her head. They soon headed back to their houses. Their adventure was just beginning.
