The Hidden World, The Forest of New Beginnings
Natsu and his parents stood by a large lake with a waterfall.
Mavis replayed everything that had happened in her head over and over.
At the power, he managed to call out with his Evil Pulse.
It scared her.
Not the spell.
But at the full that he used for the spell.
"You must hate us," Mavis said as the dragon slayer turned to his mother, "With what has happened, you must really hate me and your father," she explained as Natsu looked down.
He said nothing as he turned his gaze to the waterfall, "Igneel, told me that you did not realy have a chouse and with how Alduin's rencaration is on the prowl it makes sences," Natsu said as he did not look at his mother.
"But you did not know that and so you had thought that we abandoned you with Igneel," Zeref said as he looked at his son.
"Yes, and it hurt," Natsu told them. I could not help but think that I was not strong enough to be your son, so I trained harder and harder, hoping that one day, both of you would notice me," Tears started to form in his eyes.
"It was not that," Zeref said as he looked at his son.
"Then when I joined Fairy Tail, why did neather of you show up and say that your my mom and dad," Natsu asked them as Zeref looked down.
"People both fear and worship me for separate reasons, and I did not want to bring that to you and save you from the trouble that would try to harm you to get to me," Zeref said as he looked his son in the eye.
"And if I ever saw you harmed because of me, I would have become what they fear," he said as Mavis looked down.
Natsu said nothing to his father as he looked at his mother, who was looking at her feet, "What about you," Natsu asked Mavis.
"There has not been a day that went by that I did not want to tell you that I am your mother and you are the heir to Fairy Tail and have you trained up to help you out," Mavis told him as Natsu and Zeref looked at her.
Tears started to run down her face.
"Every time I wanted to get close, I feared from with my heart, about what you would say, what you might do, if you would accept me, except your father," she said and listed more and more things, her voice breaking and weakening.
"And so I did nothing, and it looks like I made the wrong choice," Mavis said as she released a shaky breath and looked at the waterfall.
A hush came over the three of them, and the sound of the waterfall washed over them as they looked on.
"We did look out for you, though," Zeref said as Natsu looked at his father.
"We made sure to know where Igneel and you were, and when he would go out hunting, we would be around making sure that nothing that you couldn't beat would get past us," he told his son, who looked at his father.
"When you were sent into the future, me and your father made sure that every day we would go to the place where you would arrive from the past," Mavis took it from there as Natsu then turned from there, "We made sure that when you did land and at night we would protect you from all that would harm you," She told him as Natsu looked at her.
He started remembering things from when he was younger, sleeping in the forest, how a violet and golden light swirled around him, making a dome.
It was dark enough for him to sleep peacefully but light enough to send away anything that thrived in the darkness, like a nightlight.
Mavis's smile formed.
"When third found you, I was happy because I could finally meet you, my son, and show you all the things that I wanted to show you," Mavis said as her smile died.
"But as I said, fear appeared every time I tried to get close, so I sat by you when you were invisible, but I made sure that I never left your side," Mavis told him as Natsu looked at her.
The sound of the waterfall washed over them once more as no one said before Natsu asked something that shocked Mavis and Zeref.
"If Lady Dezeha, would you have appeared before me and told me that I'm your son," He asked them as they looked at each other as if they did not know.
Well, Zeref didn't.
"Yes, it would have taken me years for me to do so and you would have hated me for it, like you do now, but I wound have told you," Mavis said as Natsu looked at her.
"I don't hate you," he said as Mavis and Zeref turned to him.
"I just don't know what to feel; I'm happy that I got to meet you, sad that I could not have gotten to know you, angry that you didn't leave me a note or a message to tell me anything, joy from the training that you're giving me, and excitement to learn new magic," Natsu said as Mavis turned to him and smiled at her son.
Zeref looked at his wife and son and smiled at them, "Where ready to continue traning when you are Natsu," Zeref told his son as Natsu looked at him.
"Yeah, but not right now," Natsu said as he returned his eyes to the waterfall.
Zeref and Mavis smiled at him as they moved closer, and the three of them just sat in silence as they watched the tranquil sea in front of them.
"Can you tell me stories about you two," Natsu asked as Mavis and Zeref looked at each other.
"We can manage that," Mavis and Zeref said as they told stories about their past and how they met.
Oblivion, Barren Lands
Mira walked with Rew and Lenzabektrik towards a large open area. "So, who am I going to be fighting?" Mira asked the lightning dragon.
"You shall be fighting the King of the West Storm, Sek," Lenzabektik told her.
Mira nodded while Rew looked at the Thunder Herald.
"So you picked one of the weakest lightning dragons for her to fight," he asked before scoffing at her.
"I thought that you were going to give her a challenge," Rew said, shaking his head as they walked.
Lenzabektik glared at the lava dragon, "He is weak to you as you have the element of earth within your element you fool," She growled at Rew, who blinked at her, "For the human, she will not have the power to meet his own and so he will test her scales to see if she can withstand my power within her before she fights me," Lenzabektik told Rew who looked back at her before looking down at Mira.
"Are you ready for this," He asked her as Mira looked back up and nodded at him.
"Yes, and I can't wait to get this over so I can fight her," Mira said. Rew smiled while the Thunder Herald laughed and looked down at Mira.
"Oh, I like your brovado human and I am hoping that you do in fact beat that fool Sek," Lenzabektik told her as they continued before they found a large crater in the ground, "Sek, get your ass up her I have a challenege for you to see if you have the scales to fight me," She yelled out as the ground started to shake.
And then something burst out of the ground.
It was a large serpentine dragon with grey colouration and two red membranous wings running down the top half of its body. It was supported by long spines that extended from the rib cage.
Its torso is long and slender, similar to that of a snake. The bottom half of its torso also has ventral scales, further adding to its resemblance to a snake.
The head is massive and snake-like, armed with two enormous 14-foot-long fangs protruding from its bottom jaw and rows of needle-like teeth with green eyes, with horizontal pupils, almost cat-like and above the eyes, are a bony ridge resembling that of a crocodile.
It slithered closer to them and moved its body until it coiled up. " What do you want, Lenzabektik," the snake dragon asked the Thunder Herald.
"Sek, I would like you to fight this human, and you both can fight it out to see who will have the honour of fighting me," Lenzabektik said with a smile forming on her face.
Mira looked up at Sek, and the snake-like dragon laughed, not seeing Mira turning into her Satan Soul.
"Oh, this will be hatchling play," Sek said before Mira appeared between his eyes with her fist coming back.
She punched the snake-like dragon and punched him right between the eyes, sending the dragon to the ground.
"I'm here to fight, so come at me you scaleless fish," Mira said as two bat-like wings burst out of her back.
Forest of the Striking Lightning
Erza walked into a giant forest with trees that reached high into the sky with leaves of different shades of yellow, and she was carrying a large sack.
She mainly looked on the ground for yellow scales, with some blue ones, as she walked around, picked some up, and put them in the sack.
"Excuse me, can I ask you what you are doing," a voice behind her asked as Erza turned around.
She saw a dragon with a pair of front legs, no back legs, no wings, and a long snake-like body.
Its head has two h that were erected back with small spikes reaching the top of the tail, and it has fur that starts at the top of its tail and goes back to its tip.
The legs looked tick and muscular, with four claws in the front and a fifth behind.
Then, what drew Erza's eyes was the colour of the scales.
They were a dark blue, nearly navy blue and almost black, with the first a golden orange.
It made looking at this dragon-like seeing the sea with the sun rising after a long night.
"Valthals sent me to collect some scales for an armour she is making for me," Erza told the dragon, which moved its head down to speak eye-to-eye with the red-haired girl.
"I see," They said as the dragon looked at the sack, "How many scales have you manged to coloect," They asked.
"Around twenty, and I am aiming for one hundred, as they could also dawn a weapon if there are any leftover," Erza said.
The dragon nodded and walked on before stopping and turning to Erza.
"Follow me," they said as they walked through the forest, Erza following them.
"My name is Rashfang, the Crawling Thunder Lord, and as you can guess, I am a lightning dragon," they said as Erza nodded.
"My name is Erza Scarlet, the Queen of the Fairys, well that is my mage tital that I was given," she said as the dragon nodded.
"What type of magic do you use Erza," Rashfang asked her as Erza looked at the Crawling Thunder Lord.
"Re-Quip The Knight," Erza answered them.
"Any elemental magic," Rashfang asked.
Erza shook her head as they looked at her, "To gain the full power of the scales you are gathering you have to know how to use Lightning Magic, even if it is the basics," Rashfang said before they both stopped and overlooked an ample open space with a brood of lightning dragons.
"You should be able to gather the amount of sclaes you need from here and remeber what I told you," Rashfang said as Erza nodded and walked down.
Platinum Peak
Dezeha overlooked her children's home as one of her eyes split into three, and she watched the three humans enter her domain.
She saw Natsu training with his mother and father, and Igneel showed the dragon slayer some more magic.
Mira was fighting Sek within Oblivion and showing she was making headway with her training.
And she saw Erza on her way back with a whole sack of lighting dragon scales.
"The three are making good work with what they are doing," The Dragon Goddess thought as she looked at them before her eyes returned to normal and gained a thinking look.
She took a breath and let it out as three rainbow mists formed and started to take shape.
The first was a young boy walking towards a hospital with his mother.
He had a round face framed by a short mop of fluffy dark-green hair which curled up at odd angles around his head, casting noticeably dark shadows onto itself; his eyes were large and somewhat circular, and his irises were the same shade of green as his hair, which at times are very watery, and are usually stretched quite comprehensive, giving him an innocent, energized appearance.
He had four symmetrical freckles on his cheeks in diamond formations.
He wore a light green shirt, dark green cargo pants, and red shoes.
His mother was a slim woman whose hair and eyes were also green but in a slightly darker shade than her son's, and her hair was straight and shoulder-length, with a small and spiky ponytail at the back.
Her clothes were a blue pencil skirt with a white button-up blouse and a pink cardigan over it.
She turned her gaze to the second one, and it was another boy around the same age as the first, but this one was sitting in a one-person apartment alone.
He had yellow-blond, spiky hair and blue eyes, three whisker markings on his cheeks.
He wore black shorts with a long-sleeved dark green shirt with a white shirt over it, which had light green around the sleeve and hem of the shirt with a red spiral in the centre of the shirt and on his feet hand blue sandals.
The third was another boy sleeping in a cupboard under a set of stairs, once more around the same age as the other two.
He had untidy jet-black hair that stuck up and almond-shaped, startlingly green eyes; he was on the smaller side and skinny, dangerously skinny.
He wore clothes that did not fit him right, and his face was covered in round-rimmed glasses.
But on his forehead was a scar shaped like a lightning bolt.
"I have meant to take a dragon slayer or two, and I don't think Earthland will have the one I would like," Dezeha said as she looked at the mists of the three boys, who had become her sons, "And who said that I should just have one dragon slayer," she said as she looked at the three.
"So you are picking them three," A male voice asked behind her as she turned to see a man dressed in a black shirt that was constantly changing what was on it, black combat trousers and black boots, and he also had a crimson haori with black flames at the bottom.
He had pitch-black hair with a crimson streak and unusual eyes, with the sclera black and the iris crimson.
His skin was tan, and a crimson ninja mask was over his mouth.
"I am my friend, and I do beleave that they will make good dragons slayers for me and aid there worlds in becoming better that they are," Dezeha said as the man sighed and walked up and looked at the three.
"You do know that I know I have to change a small part of their future so that I can make it so they will meet you," he said as he looked at the dragon, who smiled down at him.
"Yes, but you do love it ever so much," Dezeha told the man, who smiled at her behind his mask as he turned back to the floating pitchers of the three boys, his eyes turned into flames.
"The one without a gift shall be bitten by the one of the curse of the wolf, and shall have his spark lit to have him brought here so that he can learn to both control his wolf and learn magic," The man said as the mist image of the green haired boy gained a shadow of a wolf before dissipating, "I have changed the past of the one with the fox and his new mother shall come to you," He informed her as she nodded before looking at the boy in the cupboard.
"What about him," Dezeha asked as she looked at the boy.
"You will meet him when he goes to the school so that he can learn of the gift that he has been given by one of the constants; then you will find him when the time is right," he told her as he turned his gaze to her.
"Now, my friend, I would like some from you to do for me as I did this for me," he said as Dezeha nodded.
The man snapped his fingers as two flames appeared.
They took the shape of the same person but at different times.
They both had brown hair, green eyes, a dark green tunic, a fur vest, dark brown pants and large boots.
"And what would you like for me to do for them," Dezeha asked as she looked at them.
"I would like you to make a home for the one who is ready to leave and for him to build a kingdom," the man said as she pointed to the one who was putting things into a bag.
"While the other, I would like you to make him your chapien and gather thoughts to train him in the arts of ki and chakra," he said as he looked at her.
She looked at the two versions of the same person before nodding, "I shall, Blaze," She said as the man nodded and started to walk away; a portal opened to a movie theatre and walked through.
