A/N: Welcome to another revised chapter of RDK. Not much too say here, besides the usual. Also Wendy will become more OOC as the story progresses, but she will remain mostly the same. I REPEAT she will for the MOST part stay the same just with a backbone, more confidence, a few cheeky remarks, and dark moments throughout. She will NOT become a dark character like Naruto, but will have dark moments on occasion. This will become more apparent during the Grand Magic Games (GMC).


A long overdue Conversation

When Wendy opens her eyes, she finds herself staring at a ceiling fan in motion. She gets up to see that she is lying on a bed. She looks around to see that she is back in her hotel room, and judging by the dark skies outside, it's well into the night.

'What happened? I remember training with the Skill Drill until…..' she then recalled who she saw before everything went black.

'Otou-sama!' She screamed in her head before jumping out of her covers before looking around her, but to her dismay it was empty. No one was there. She was there all alone. The girl felt her world crash down and soon felt hot tears began spilling down.

'Who am I kidding? I can't believe I imagined my tou-chan coming back for me. I'm so stupid.' She berated herself for a long while about conjuring that dream, before deciding to go outside and rinse off her face and take a night stroll. Imagine her surprise when she slides the door open to see her father standing there, reading a book in his hands.

Wendy just stared in shock, hoping that this was not a dream and her father was really there.

"O-Otou-sama?" she asked weakly. Naruto looks from his book to see his daughter standing right in front of him. He puts his books down and dismisses it into his pocket dimension, and slowly walks towards her. He bent down on one knee so he was at eyes length with her. He raises his hand to her, which causes her to flinch slightly. He slowly touches the back of her head before bringing in for a hug.

"Yes, Wendy. Its your father."

Wendy couldn't believe it. Her father was here. He was right in front of her, giving her a hug. New tears began spill from her face, but these were tears of joy. She was finally reunited with her father after so many years. She began to sob into her father's shoulder as they continued to embrace him. Naruto, felt his daughter's arms wrap themselves around his neck and hold on for dear life as if he would disappear if she let go for even a moment. This sadden him, since he did not realize his absence had THAT much of an effect on her. However, considering she she has been alone for most of her life like him, he shouldn't be surprised of how she reacted. She wanted her family. She wanted a mother that would be there to nurture her. Raise her. She wanted a father that would be there for her. Guide her. Protect her.

In a sense, she was just like he was when he was her age. This made him feel worse, since he knew how MUCH it meant to know anything about his family, even it was a tiny bit. Sure, she had Grandeeney, and he was alive and visited on occasion, but that is not a substitute for raising a child. Yes, he was there in the shadows watching her, but being there that also let him know about her fears and insecurities. How she wished her 'tou-chan' and 'kaa-chan' were there. How she longed to see them together as a family. It pained him greatly, but now he had an opportunity to make things right. He promised Hinata to be there for Wendy, and nothing in the entirety of Earthland or the other realms was going to stop him. After what seemed like hours he moved Wendy, so she was looking at him. Her eyes were getting red and puffy, her cheeks were moist from the waterfall of tears she spilled, and she was hiccupping a lot. If this was any other situation, he would think she looked absolutely adorable.

"Wendy."

"H-Hai?"

"Why don't you get your face washed and get a change of clothes. We can get something to calm your nerves. What do you say?"

Wendy's eyes widen, before nodding quickly and rushing to wash her face. Wendy couldn't believe it. Her father was actually here! And he wanted to spend time with her! She now had a lead to Grandeeney and the other dragons. She could even learn more about him, and why he wasn't there for her. This was an opportunity she could not ignore.

And maybe. Just maybe, she'll even learn about her biological mother again. It took her no less than thirty seconds to wash her face and get dressed and standing in front of her father again. Naruto blinked when he saw how quick his daughter appeared in front of him. He had to mentally chuckle at her overexcitement. It reminded him of how he used to be once upon a time.

"Well someone seems excited to walk with their daddy. I'm touched." He teased. Wendy blushed and began mumbling some incoherent words. Naruto chuckled again before ruffling her hair making her pout even more.

"Well let's go, the night is not getting any younger." The two then set out to the food center of the hotel. The pair purchased two large cups of hot chocolate. Wendy got one with cinnamon frosting, while Naruto got vanilla frosting. The two were sitting on the white sands of the beach, watching the slow waves of the ocean, and gazing at the stars that lit the night sky. The two sat in an awkward silence, the only sound the two made was the slurping of their drinks. Naruto was enjoying the warm sensation his drink gave him as it went down his throat and into his stomach. It was one of the reasons why he liked hot chocolate as much as he used to love ramen. It was the warm sensation that he got as it filled his entire body.

Although he hadn't touch ramen in 400 years, but what can you expect when you're sent to a new world before ramen was even created. Thinking about his old addiction reminded him about his past. A past that he tried so hard to forget. A past that no child should have to endure through. All because of human naivety, greed, and fear; his life was filled with nothing but darkness and emptiness. He feels a tug at his arm and looks to see daughter looking at him in concern. He realizes he had been releasing KI for a brief time, and Wendy had been concern on what was on his mind to cause him to get so angry. Naruto shakes his head to get rid of his dark thoughts. He releases a long sigh before looking up at the sky again. Wendy was glad her father had calmed down, but now they were in this awkward silence again. It was really weird, but it was kinda expected. How do you start a conversation with someone you have been wanting to meet again for years, but have no idea where to begin. Finally Naruto decided to break the ice.

"I know you have a lot of questions, Wendy. You can ask me anything and I will try my best to answer them."

"I have so many questions, I don't even know where to begin." She replied.

"The beginning is always a good place to start."

Wendy did not look amused by that response, but sighs before taking the advice and asking the first thing on her mind.

"Are you really, Acnologia? The Black Dragon of the Apocalypse?"

"I have lived for well over 400 years, my daughter. I have been given many names in all those years. Acnologia is merely one of many names I have earned."

"If you're a dragon, does that mean I'm half dragon?"

"Not exactly. I became a dragon well after you were conceived and born. You're only partially dragon because of Grandeeney and becoming her dragonslayer. But what I am is rather complicated."

"What do you mean?" she asked confused. Naruto sighed before he said he'll explain later on. Wendy decided to go to her next question.

"Why did you attack Fairy Tail on Tenrou Island?"

Naruto looked at his daughter this time.

"Originally I came to the island to kill Zeref. That black mage owes me a debt that has been collecting interest for 400 years. I never meant your guild any harm, but I wanted to see the strength of your guild. I saw that human I fought on Mt. Zonia; plus your guild had four dragon slayers, so I was hoping to get a good challenge." He sighed before he shook his head and continued,

"But you guys were a lot weaker than I expected, none of you could harm me. Let alone scratch me. It was rather disappointing."

Wendy look down already knowing how powerless they were before her father.

"But."

Wendy snapped her head at the 'But'.

"I will say you guys have guts. You all knew that you had no chance against me. Your master knew this and that's why he ordered you to leave. But you ignored his plea and stood your ground against me. You all wanted to stand together and take me down as a family."

Wendy was listening intently.

"In a way, I was happy. Happy, because the ideals of Mavis Vermillion were still held in your hearts. It meant that all she went through to create Fairy Tail did not go in vain. You all attacked me and even managed to send me into the ocean. That gave me a surprise, and did something that had not been done since my fight with Gildarts Clive."

"What was it?"

"You guys ignited my spark again. My thrill for battle against a worthy opponent. Gildarts managed to do it for a moment. He was the first human able to do so in a very long time. And when I saw his guild mark, it peeked my interest even more. So I spared him, and hoped you guys would come back to give me the same thrill I felt. And you did deliver, though it was short. It was the most fun I had in a long time."

Wendy gave a blank stare.

"You do realized how much terror you put most of us? Not to mention the seven year coma you sent us in." Wendy retorted.

"To be fair, I was not there to hurt any of you. The fact that none of you died or lost a limb should be proof of that. Gildarts lasted three minutes before he lost two limbs and got gutted. I fought all of you for well over five minutes and none of you got seriously injured. I could have done more damage than what I was doing, yet I didn't. That should prove I had no intention of harming any of you."

"Yeah I know. None of us got really harmed from that fight. It was still a huge blow to our pride though. Plus you didn't even use your roar until you rose out of the sea. You had enough time to do it so many times, though I'm pretty sure me, the master, and Gildarts were the only ones to realize this." Wendy said.

"Yeah that's true. Plus when I did launch my roar it was not at full power. I would say it was about one tenth. Then Fairy Sphere activated. To be honest, I only knew that it was a defensive spell. I had no idea it was gonna put you all in a coma for seven years. Even if it did not activate, my roar would not have killed you all. Seriously maim or injure? Yes. Kill? No. I knew you guys could handle it."

Wendy sweatdropped at that response.

"Thats pretty sadistic tou-chan." she said.

Naruto shrugged. "It's kinda part of my nature, my dear. That's what happens to you after 400 years of non-stop killing and destroying."

Wendy's sweat-drop got even bigger, and decided to move on to her next question before she got a headache. "Why weren't you there when I was growing up? Why did you leave me?" Naruto sighed before looking down and answering.

"Wendy you must understand. I am one of the most feared and hated beings that has ever walked this world, second possibly only to a select few. I am the literal personification of the apocalypse. I am death and darkness in its purest form." He then cupped her cheek with his left hand.

"But you were so pure; so innocent and sweet. The day you were born was the most important day of my life. You were so beautiful like your mother. You were born without a hint of malice or hatred. You were my ray of light in the darkness. But after everything I went through, after everything I did, I soon realized I had no right to have you near me. I did not wish for you to be tainted by my darkness. A life on the run, was not the life that you needed nor deserved. I wanted to give you the one thing I was denied when I was your age." Wendy looked curiously.

"I wanted to give you a childhood. That's why I knew you would be happy with that old geezer Roubaul. I knew he would treat you like any other child, regardless of your connection to me. He saw you as a surrogate granddaughter and he felt he was doing me a favor as one of the few friends I had. I wanted to give you the one gift any child should deserve. A happy childhood filled with people that love you. That is what any parent would want for their child. To live happily and to be loved."

Wendy was shocked at that. Did her father really think he did not deserve to be with her. That he did not deserve some sort of happiness?

"It would have been better if you were a part of it." She said as she looked down.

"I know. I know just visiting on occasion was not the best solution. But it was the best I could come up with where I could watch you, but keep my distance so I wouldn't get my scent on you."

Wendy then took her dad's arm and hugged it tightly.

"It doesn't matter what you did. You went so far to keep me safe, just so I can have a happy childhood. That shows that you're not just the monster that the world sees you as. For that I am grateful. Even though you were far away, you always visited and spend time with me. That made me happy to know my tou-chan did love me. So I'm glad to have you as my dad, and I do love you too, tou-chan."

Naruto just froze to hear those wonderful words from his daughter. She truly was a blessed soul just like her mothers. They both saw the good that was buried deep in the darkness. Just like Grandeeney, Anna and Irene. For some reason all the women in his life and his friends always saw the good in him, even if he did not see it or if he deserved such kindness.

"Wendy you don't know how much it means to me to hear such words from you. But I have not earned the right to hear those words. But I hope from this point on to become worthy of hearing them from you." he said as he brought her into a hugg that she happily returned.

The two stayed in that embrace until Wendy moved to ask her next question.

"Tou-chan, what happened to Grandeeney and the other dragons? They all disappeared 14 years ago. You must know something."

Naruto flinched at the question. Something that Wendy noticed.

"Why do you do that? When Natsu asked you the same question, I saw you flash through a myriad of emotions. You got angry, then sorrowful, and finally shame. Tou-chan. What happened?"

Naruto pinched his nose and released a heavy sigh. Something that was becoming a regular thing.

"Wendy, what happened to the other dragons was something that I did not wish nor did I want. They were my nakama. My family. But what happened was unavoidable regardless of what I or anyone else did."

Wendy bit her lip and asked the question she was dreading.

"Did you kill them? Are they dead? Are Grandeeney, Igneel, and Metalicana dead?"

Wendy asked in fear. Naruto felt his heart shatter at his daughter's face, but pressed on.

"Wendy what happened was not what I wanted to happen. But honestly, I don't know. I know what I did to them, but I have no idea where they are. I did not kill them. At least, not exactly. I honestly don't know where they are. That is the honest truth." Which was true. He did harm them, technically killed them, but they escaped and he has no clue where exactly they went. He has a possible theory, but he was not gonna give her false hope to have it crushed later on.

"So there's a chance she's still alive somewhere?"

"Like I said. That is a maybe. I can't guarantee it nor deny it." Wendy sighed. It was not the answer she wanted, but it was better than nothing.

"Now Wendy what were you doing here? I sensed your magical energy here, but I have no idea why."

Wendy then explained how her guild had dropped in ranking to being the lowest in Fiore. They learned about Grand Magic Games, and how it was the quickest way to reach the top again in no time. It was gonna occur in three months, which was plenty of time to get ready for the games. They came here to train, and enjoy some quality. She explained they had made some progress, she even managed to do the Sky Drill after just a few days, something that made her father swell in pride. She then explained the whole sake incident, something he scolded for doing and reminding himself to get the other members for their stupidity for allowing Wendy to drink. She then explained how she went to get some ice cream, before she came back to find out that her team along with Juvia and Levy left through some celestial magic.

"Now I am just waiting for them to return. I wonder what's taking so long." she was getting slightly worried that her friends had not return. Naruto just facepalmed at the stupidity of not only her friends, but the Celestial Spirit King's antics.

'If it weren't for the fact I am friends with that baka-clover king, I would beat him for his pranks. Now I have to break the ice with Wendy.'

"Wendy I hate to say it, but I don't think you will be seeing your friends any time soon." Wendy looked worried and asked what did he mean.

"Wendy after I left you in your room, I checked the area and sensed the celestial magic. But the thing is that specific residual magic led to the Celestial Spirit World. The issue is that time moves different in the Celestial World compared to Earthland."

Wendy titled her head in confusion. "How different is time between the dimensions?" she asked curious at how different the dimensions worked relative to one another.

Naruto sighed before he dropped the bomb.

"Well one day in the Celestial World is equal to three months in Earthland." Wendy just froze.

"What?"

"I said you won't be seeing your friends for three months, which is about the time the GMC will commence."

Wendy just stared with a blank, hollow stare. Naruto got worried and snapped his fingers in front of Wendy.

"Wendy?"

"EHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!" she screamed.

"You mean to tell me all that planning has gone down the toilet! What am I supposed to do?! I can't get stronger on my own?!" she continued to vent in a cloud of sorrow.

Naruto just looked at the spectacle of his daughter, while getting a sense deja vu from himself and his queens.

It was kinda of scary.

"Wendy. I believe I have a proposition for you." This got the attention of the bluenette girl.

"One of the reasons I came here was to ask you something."

"What did you want to ask me?"

"Would you like me to train you?" Wendy eye's widen.

"Really? You would really train me?" Naruto nodded.

"Yes my dear, I want to train you to be the best you can be. I plan to work on your dragon slayer magic. I also have some offensive spells to give you some variety in combat. Sky dragons may not be the best when comes to combat, but I believe I can make it up by teaching you drive mode and maybe even dragonforce."

Wendy had stars in her eyes and was right in front of her father.

"Really?!"

"Yes I swear." Wendy then breathed before looking at Naruto seriously, which made him raise an eyebrow.

"If I agree I have some conditions that you must swear to uphold. Can you promise me that?" Naruto looked at her seriously, wondering what could she be thinking, but decided he needed to do this to gain her trust.

"I swear a blood oath to the dragons, that I will uphold your conditions regardless of how insane or ridiculous the condition is." He swore seriously as thunder boomed in the clear, confusing several people on the beach. Wendy was shocked at how far her father would go, but decided to keep going and raised five fingers.

"First you don't hold back or show any mercy to me. If I am going to be strong I need you to push me to my limits and beyond. I am tired of being weak, and right now you're the only one that can help me get stronger."

"Second, you tell me everything about yourself. And I mean everything. From the day you were born to your connection with Zeref and Master Mavis."

"Third, I want you to tell me about my biological kaa-chan. I deserve to know more about her, and what happened to her. I can't really remember all the stories you used to tell me. You are the only one that can tell me about her."

" Fourth, I want to know what happen between you and the dragons. What turned you into the so-called monster that the world knows you as."

"Finally, I want to spend time with you. Not as teacher and student, but as father and daughter. I want to have some time to know you and have some precious memories with my tou-chan."

Naruto looked down contemplating the requests. The requests were simpler than he expected, but they were gonna be opening wounds he desperately tried to forget, but he couldn't back out now. Some skeletons were gonna come out and he needed to accept it. He looked up at his daughter with unwavering eyes.

"I swear to uphold those conditions to the best of my ability. You have my word as a dragon."

Wendy nodded before beaming a smile at him that made him chuckle.

"Alright." Naruto said as he stood up and looked at the dark horizon.

"Go pack your stuff and we can-" he didn't even finish before Wendy bolted to her hotel room to get her belongings. It took her less than five minutes to get her things, leave a letter for her friends, and come back to the beach. Naruto had to wonder if Wendy inherited Minato's Hiraishin in her blood. He shook his head in amusement.

He lifted his arm forward and a black and violet portal opened in front of the duo.

He looked at his daughter.

"Ready?" she nodded.

"Let's go!" and the two entered the portal and it disappeared into the night as if it was never there.

[Unknown Location]

When Wendy gets her bearing, she sees herself surrounded in a forest. However she noticed something is odd with the vegetation around her. The grass was a dark green color, the trees were black in color covered in blood, red leaves, and the bushes were also of similar color. She then looked up to see that the sky was not night time anymore, but was now a blood red sky. She could even see blue and yellow lightning soaring through the sky. Even the air tasted differently. It was heavier, and had an odd flavor to it. Overall she was getting odd vibes from her surroundings. Where had her father taken her?

She jumps when she feels a hand on her shoulder. She looks to see her father looking at her.

"I can see that the environment is having an effect on you. When it's your first time visiting, this place can be overwhelming in a sense" he said.

"Tou-san, where have you taken me?"

Naruto then looked forward with a sense of nostalgia in his eyes.

"This place is a special to me and several dragons, it's called the Bloody Forest for the unique coloring of the vegetation. Its one of my favorite places to come to within the Makai."

Wendy was frozen when she heard that.

"D-did you say M-Makai?" She asked. Naruto nodded.

"Yes. Makai, Demon World, Underworld, Netherworld, Niflheim, Reverse World, Distortion World, and more commonly, Hell. All of these names represent a specific area and when you take all these places together, you get the 'hell' of this world. This place is one of many ruled by the death dragon, Giratina. Most dragons use this place to isolate themselves so they can train themselves without having to worry about collateral damage to unsuspecting victims in the vicinity. Only dragons or EXTRAORDINARY mages are capable of finding it and actually get in, and the number of mages that know about this place is very small. I guess you could call it our version of Tenrou."

Wendy looked around in complete awe and wonder. She never thought that the so-called original homeland of demons/devils would be controlled by the dragons. Then again she remembered that Grandeeney said that the dragons were one of the first beings born from within the universe and they mold it into what it is today. So it's not too surprising one of them took refuge in hell as their domain.

"Tou-san, why did you bring me here?" She asked. Naruto smirked.

"I brought you here for our little training camp for several reasons. One is so we will not be interrupted by anyone. Like I said this place is really isolated from anyone or anything, so the odds of meeting someone here is really unlikely. Meaning we can go all out with our training. Most importantly, like the Celestial Spirit World, time flows differently here. However, it's opposite to how the Celestial Spirit World works. One day in Earthland is equal to four days here. So training for three months is equivalent to one year here."

Wendy was seeing stars. This was a perfect chance to really buckle down and train her butt off. Plus she will have someone that will push her to her limits, and truly make her strong.

"So how is this training regiment going to work?" Naruto looked thoughtful for a moment.

"First I will evaluate your skills. After I see all of your techniques, I will know how to train you. However, I already have some fields that I will work with you on."

Wendy looked curiously at her father.

"What exactly will you help me in?" She asked.

"Well as I said, one of the things that I want to help you in is with your dragonslayers magic. Specifically drive mode and possibly dragon force. Since sky dragon slayer magic is not really combat heavy, I will help you get more offensive magics for you to use along with the transformations. In the physical aspects, I will help improve your speed, physical strength, sensory capabilities, and finally your hand-to-hand combat so you have something to fall back to if you don't have any magical power available to you." Wendy nodded seeing the logic in her father's ideas. But then she felt the hairs at the back of her neck rise in fear at the very sadistic and evil smile on Naruto's face.

"But make no mistake my chibi-hime. I WILL make you train to the ground. You will sweat. You will bleed. You will cry. And I will laugh. You will know pain. I WILL make sure of that." Naruto said chuckling evilly.

Wendy was now wondering what she had gotten herself into. She gulped before staring back defiantly.

"I am not afraid, tou-san." She said with conviction.

To her horror, her father's sinister smile seemed to increase even more, and it began to get worse as he began to chuckle evilly.

"You will be, my daughter. You...WILL...Be."

He replied chuckling evilly even more.

Yup Wendy was definitely wondering what she had gotten herself into.
