Hi guys Azza here!
Before I get to the other stuff massive Fairy Tail news for those who don't know about it or haven't read it yet, the creator of Fairy Tail himself Hiro Mashima has confirmed via his twitter that there is in addition to his new work going to be a Fairy Tail sequel spinoff manga and it can be confirmed that the story will not feature Team Natsu as the main characters so that's interesting.
Now will this spinoff be of the kids of the main characters, will it be other members of the guild or other guilds we know of or will it be some new characters no one as of yet knows however I'm excited to see how this is going to play out and I just wanted to let you all know in case you didn't know.
All right now for the other stuff.
ChaosofTime – That sword isn't going to be as powerful in Erza's hands as it was in Natsu's, when Natsu defeated the Titan with it he channelled Hybrid's Aura as well as all four of his Dragon Slayer elements into it two of which are highly volatile when combined those being the Divine and Demonic ones. Erza will have the runes etched into it however the Zanamato as I said was the first sword created on Earthland I never said who created it.
Kazuka746 – I knew I said that however the two diverted to the action the moment they felt Jellal and Bluenote's magic clashing with Jellal's getting weaker, yes I know I had Natsu say find Mira and get her to help but in a chaotic mess like what they walked into was anything really going to go to plan?
Mira will be included more in the fights towards the end but I just want to make it clear yes she is in service to Natsu but only in a sense that Natsu grants her abilities a boost nothing like how Seilah is where she is literally bound to his service as his right hand Demon due to her being the first.
Also Kazuka I watched that video you recommended me to do and well I'll just say you'll be happy with what's to come in the chapter haha.
All right enough of that on with the chapter!
I do not own Fairy Tail Hiro Mashima does.
Calm Before The Storm
/?/
Natsu groaned as he slowly opened his eyes to a familiar sight, above him once again was the strange light show only shown to him whenever he ended up at Life and Death's place.
"Don't tell me I'm dying again I didn't even get wounded that bad," he sighed as he slowly dragged himself up out of the field of flowers and began walking over towards the house.
Opening the door he was smacked in the head by several marbles as he sent a scowl Life's way.
"Hey I couldn't do it during your fight so that's interest!"
Natsu just ignored him and flopped down on the couch as Death raised an eyebrow.
"Making yourself comfortable I see?"
"Well you keep bringing me here so I might as well its not like you both hate me or despise me in any way plus we're both higher beings so who really cares?"
"I suppose that is a fair point, so Natsu do you care to speculate why we brought you here this time?"
"Uh let's see I could be dying again, you just felt like messing with me, because you have something important to tell me, because of something I did or maybe because I somehow ended up here of my own accord and you don't actually know?"
"A lot of choices but it was the third one though really we actually assumed it would be the first one but your body seems to be acclimatizing well with the two Auras now," Life said as he waved his hand and Natsu could suddenly see his heart.
"Broken into three pieces you have the Aura of Devil better known as the Mortals Ascension type, the Gods Aura known as the Aura of the Divine and those blessed by them and the Aura of the Hybrid known only to you, Ahnkseram and Zeref. Normally the heart would not fracture successfully into thirds however as you know we interfered which allowed the process to take place, what you see before you is the successful result … to a degree."
"To a degree what's that mean?"
"What Death is saying Natsu is that whilst you have indeed obtained the Hybrid's Aura which is in every way the same as Zeref's it isn't pure, notice how the Aura is as black as the void it should not be this way."
"A purified form of the Hybrid's Aura is a more greyish white colour and grants its wielder far more power than what you had, the version you have is like Zeref's own not bad by any means but far from perfect."
"So why is it impure?"
"It is a by product of merging the Divine and Demonic I suppose you could say, the Aura whilst now being existent is corrupted by the flaws of the other two if you get what I mean. Devil's Aura holds too much sway to the mortals and Gods Aura holds too much sway towards the Gods and with it comes all the technical boosts each side provides that has been smashed together to create the Hybrid's Aura you have now."
"So how do I purify it then?"
"We've spent all our time since you were out during those five years researching it and we have come to the conclusion that the pure form is simply not a permanent thing," Life said seriously his previously cheerful personality gone.
"To achieve perfect balance between the two Aura types forever is simply impossible since it would require you to basically be the best of both sides of the coin, a perfect God and a perfect Devil with the Aura flowing in perfect harmony do you understand why such a feat would be impossible?"
"The Devils are often driven by personal desires and emotions whereas Gods for the most part are driven by logic, reason and devotion … right?"
"Precisely, no one could achieve such a harmonious balance between all things forever however it could theoretically be done temporarily though it will be up to you to figure such a thing out for yourself."
"That's definitely an interesting bit of info I'll have to try and figure that out when I have time, so is there anything else you wanted?"
"Yes actually there is one thing," Life said as he waved his hand making Natsu's heart vanish and the image of a ship sailing the seas appear.
"To begin the planning for the war against Zeref and his armies you will need a tactician, someone who knows the art of war almost as well as the God of it does. You have the soul of the Fairy Tactician Mavis Vermillion bonded to you don't you Natsu yet wonder where she has gone?"
Natsu nodded as Death waved her hand and a second image appeared of an area just outside Crocus with Mavis walking along, Natsu could tell this was just after the Dragon King Festival which meant she disappeared a long time ago.
Watching Mavis talk to Zeref about something he was shocked to see a man appear from thin air sealing her away within a pocket dimension of his own creation.
"Zeref captured Mavis early to remove her from the game and probably because he needs her for something the most likely thing being the Lumin Histoire," Death said softly as Natsu nodded.
"The man who managed to capture her spirit is known as Jacob Lessio he is a member of the Spriggan 12 who is probably the best assassin within your world due to the nature of his abilities. Almost anyone could be killed by him with the exception of someone like yourself who has Aura to sense him."
"You must retrieve Mavis Vermillion and return her to your side of the field before Zeref makes such a thing impossible, Jacob is currently on this ship alongside two Leichart members so it would be in your best interest to … ensure the ship never makes it to Fiore."
"I see getting Master Mavis back would help immensely, how do I get her out of his space though?"
"The easiest way to do it would be to kill him I would say, kill him and everything within his space would be ejected back into the mortal one."
"No rest for me I guess even after my damn neck nearly got broken by that Titan."
"You did pretty well against that Titan Natsu not many could have done what you did, using his own sword to defeat him was nothing short of ingenious."
"I mean I guess it was I'm sure anyone would've thought of that after awhile right?"
"Assuming they could get the sword in the first place, you did a good job Natsu and its almost time for you to go back first we need to tell you something. There was a meeting between the Gods and Devils that you were supposed to attend before your disappearance Natsu however it was put on hold until your return, due to your recent actions the meeting has been reconvened and when you wake there will be an Archon waiting to speak with you to inform you of this."
"However we want you to go and make the first strike in the war against Zeref so we've both agreed to reveal ourselves to the other Gods for the first time in … how long was it since we last saw the others," Life asked as Death shrugged.
"The point is we will buy you time to get the job done, the ship will be docking at an island waiting for orders from their command and that is where you shall finish them. Destroying the ship would be the best idea then dealing with the enemy, we cannot help you anymore than this Natsu so for now just try and do your best and remember we're rooting for you to win this time," Death said with a small smile as they both faded away and the room started to disappear.
"With Life and Death in my corner how can I lose …?"
/Crime Sorciere Headquarters/
Natsu's eyes shot open as he sniffed his surroundings, the scents of many of his friends wafted through the air as he sat up in the bed he was in. Looking at his arm he noticed it was back to front for some reason.
Getting out of the bed Natsu realized he was still fully clothed which meant none of them knew how to take off his clothes in an attempt to treat him, shaking his head with a small smile he allowed the coat part of his outfit to fade away leaving him only in pants and walked over to the medical supplies left in the corner.
"Let's see here shattered ribs, broken arm, broken shoulder blade, punctured lung, torn muscles, irregular heartbeat, hole in the bone on my right leg, damaged windpipe, broken jaw, cracked skull and nine broken fingers … I'm surprised I got off that easy."
Closing his eyes he felt around for all the listed issues and found that the only issue he had currently was his arm which was simply facing the wrong way, sighing he grabbed a hold of it and ripped it back into place silently cursing whoever allowed it to heal that way.
As soon as it was broken his E.N.D abilities had begun healing it again until it was as good as new, thankfully not having to rely on healing his entire body in a battle meant things could be focused on making them heal faster.
Walking over to the door he opened it and walked out into a hallway where he began to hear voices many of which were familiar, slowly walking down the hallway he stopped just before a door.
"He's been out a week already is this normal," came the voice of Jellal.
"You should be lucky he isn't dead not many encounter one of the Titans and live and he's fought two of them, don't worry his abilities would be healing him even now as we speak," came the voice of Aizen who didn't sound like he wanted to be amusing right now.
Natsu smirked slightly and decided to have some fun with his condition since none of them picked up that he was there, taking a deep breath he activated his Hybrid's Aura and kicked the door down with enough force to create a large gust of wind and staggered inside.
"NATSU," almost every occupant in the room shouted as he staggered in the room.
"I'm not the crazy one you're all the crazy ones!"
Everyone with the exception of one person looked confused at his statement.
"He must not be fully aware of where he is," Jellal said as several people made their way towards him in an attempt to restrain him only for everyone including Natsu to pause when a man wearing an Archon robe stood up flaring his Aura wildly.
"As much as I love this little joke you have going on here Natsu I'm afraid this really isn't the time, the proverbial shit is about to hit the fan so stop fooling around."
To everyone's surprise Natsu stopped freaking out and stood up straight deactivating his Aura and nodded but not before grumbling about people ruining his fun.
"Damn you were just messing around … that's so fucking cool!"
"I haven't had the chance to goof around often so I took one that was offered to me; by the way who are you kid?"
"I'm not a kid in fact I'm like 2200 years your senior, the names Meliodas and I'm an Arch Demon like you," he said as he placed a hand on the nearest pair of breasts as if it was the most normal thing to do in the world.
Unfortunately for him the person in question was Erza and Natsu's eyes activated as everyone took a step back, walking over to Meliodas he belted him over the head smashing his head into the ground.
"That's my wife you bastard!"
Meliodas got up unfazed as the two butted heads.
"Who cares you can't have all these to yourself!"
"The hell are you talking about that's not how things work you damn perv!"
"ENOUGH!"
Natsu and Meliodas quickly split as the Archon sighed shaking his hooded head.
"Meliodas we've been over this not every culture is as forward as the one you came from where they are willing to accept such … actions, besides after this morning I would have thought you'd have learned your lesson?"
"In case you were wondering he grabbed Alucard's girl and he chased him around the forest firing all sorts of crazy attacks at him it was quite amusing," Aizen said amused as the Archon coughed.
"Yes well amusing or no I need to speak with you Natsu because you have now achieved the Hybrid state, the meeting between the Gods and Devils shall once more be convened and you must be in attendance."
The Archon lifted his hood much to the shock of all the Devils there and even Eliza who had remained silent the entire time, under it was a bald dark skinned man who stuck a cigar in his mouth as his robes vanished.
He was now sporting a long brown leather overcoat with matching light brown leather pants with a pair of black boots and a red scarf, his shirt was a light grey colour with a diamond pattern on it.
The man grinned seemingly giving a thumbs up until his thumb created a pinkish purple flame that lit the cigar in his mouth, chuckling at the stunned expression of every higher being there he sat back down more in a leaning fashion this time.
"Man I love stunning a room into silence though back in the day it was more in the literal sense, no need to act all shocked at my expense though times are changing and the Archons know this too. Name's Rodin I'm one of the Archons of Tartaros and believe me I've been waiting a long time to say that shit."
Everyone was just speechless as the man took a drag from his cigar before shaking his head.
"Look the Archons agreed hiding who we are is fucking pointless if we want to work with the Gods alright, like I said times are changing and so do we if we want to get anywhere in the world that's coming."
"This was totally worth ditching my job for," Meliodas said as everyone looked at him and Rodin chuckled.
"You ditch your damn job all the time Meliodas don't even try to deny it gotta have the others fill in for ya while you run around playing the pervert, but when you actually do your job you do it damn good better than almost anybody one of the reasons why we keep you around."
"Um excuse me Rodin but uh I wasn't aware that an Archon being sent out to see any of the lower classes was a good thing," Natsu said as Rodin nodded slowly.
"Usually it's not but in this case it could be the best thing to happen in a long time so don't sweat the small shit alright, I'm here because a few of you lot decided to stay here for awhile and so I'm making sure nothing shady goes down not that I honestly believe it would … well maybe Aizen would."
"Hey what's that supposed to mean!"
"Don't think we forgot what you were like when you first joined Aizen always scheming to take the top spot thankfully you got a major dose of reality, now then you got the Hybrid's Aura so I have a list here somewhere of shit I was supposed to ask you in a … ugh this is so childish."
Summoning a sheet of paper that hovered in front of him Rodin began to read it out word for word.
"In a calm and relaxed environment please ask Natsu the following questions, number one how do you feel?"
"Um … fine?"
"Figures damn this shit is such a waste of time," Rodin said as he adjusted his sunglasses and ticked off the question with his finger. "Question number two are you having any thoughts that could lead to you wanting to seek domination of the- nah this shit is stupid," Rodin said as he just ticked all of them and burned the paper. "Look here's the thing alright don't act like Zeref alright and you'll be fine."
"Uh ok I can do that," Natsu said as Rodin nodded.
"I've got no time for these shitty checklists I'm a damn Archon not some weak pencil pushing asshole who can't fight his way out of a wet paper bag, I've got a Demonic Forge to run and heaps of weapons to build I don't have time to be reading this shit!"
"Um are you ok?"
"Yeah just all this crap about you potentially being a second coming of Zeref absolute garbage we've all seen how different you are from him the fact anyone has any fear is pathetic."
"It's not fear of him but rather fear of his power," Aizen said as Rodin nodded slowly.
"Anyway the meeting is gonna be on neutral ground, a space that was created by both Gods and Devils a long time ago as a place where we could meet one another without the fear of being killed by each other."
"Right I see it in my mind but I should probably let you know that I spoke with Life and Death before I woke up and they told me to do something before I went there," Natsu said as everyone including Rodin's jaws dropped as Rodin's cigar fell to the floor.
"What did they say to you," Rodin asked slowly as Natsu explained that they wanted him to make the first move in the war before the war even officially started.
"They said they would be making an appearance before you all so you can get the full story from them if you want."
"Then what the hell are you standing around here for get out there and kick some ass, take some names," Rodin said sharply as Natsu nodded.
"I will be but I just got up and talked to all of you I'll do it soon alright, the meeting isn't starting for a while anyway is it so I don't see the immediate rush to get things done."
"Don't mess around with what Life and Death want Natsu no one messes with them," Rodin warned as he lit another cigar and opened a portal. "I'll see you at the meeting ON TIME and that means all of you including you Meliodas there will be no skipping this!"
"I know I know you said that already like a billion times!"
"Yeah but this is you we're talking about," Rodin replied with a small smirk before leaving through his portal.
"So why are you guys here anyway?"
"We just wanted to see if you were gonna kick the bucket or not," Aizen replied as Natsu shook his head.
"Blunt much … fine whatever look I have to get ready to go do this thing for Life and Death so I'll talk to you guys at the meeting alright."
"The meeting ought to be interesting so you'll definitely see me there," Aizen said with a smirk as he opened a portal which Meliodas ran through. "Are you really that damn lazy!"
Aizen walked through his portal at a brisk pace as Natsu sighed shaking his head before turning to Eliza.
"Any idea where Erza and the others are?"
"Outside last I checked, I think everyone is on edge about this meeting you know. It hasn't been since the founding of our orders that both Gods and Devils have gathered in one place in such a fashion with the idea of peace so a lot is riding on this."
Natsu nodded as she too left leaving only Natsu and Jellal in the room who seemed like he was in deep thought.
"How are your ribs doing Jellal you didn't look so good when I arrived?"
"Well they were shattered but Wendy fixed them up good as new, Natsu are you going to speak with her about-?"
"Yeah I have to I wasn't aware she was strong enough to access the Dragon's Fury it requires a Dragon Slayer to be able to shrug off a phenomenal amount of damage by using the magic around them as a sort of shield, if she isn't careful she could end up hurting herself or others."
"I noticed when you were fighting you did the same thing what was that about?"
"I've learned a little trick to it you see, going blind with rage or whatever is fine against opponents you know you can win against but against an unknown it helps to retain your mind. See I figured out that in order to access mine I have to become angrier than what I normally be, by thinking of a thought that gets me riled up I can falsely trigger it. The best part about doing it that way is my mind knows it isn't real but I still meet the requirements so I can trigger it successfully, the bad thing is should something happen the usual way I can't control it."
"So it's the same but different then?"
"Well it's also weaker than if I did it the normal way you can't replicate true unbridled rage after all, anyway I'm gonna go and talk to Wendy and the others so I'll see you soon with word on which members of Alvarez I've taken out."
"Alright good luck Natsu oh by the way your friend Azazel and Alucard are off fighting somewhere apparently Alucard has taken a liking to him and wanted to show him a few things they won't be back until tomorrow."
"Ah was wondering where Alucard was since Aizen mentioned he was chasing Meliodas around, all right I'll see you later."
Natsu left the room and made for the nearest window, looking outside he could see that Erza and Elise were training with Wendy and Jason. Smiling he perched himself on the windowsill and shot down towards them.
Elise was the first to react as she instinctively dodged followed by Erza then Wendy who dragged Jason along as Natsu impacted the ground, standing tall Natsu grinned at their stunned faces.
"Hey guys what'd I miss?"
Immediately Erza was hugging Natsu before beginning to fuss over him much to everyone's amusement, Jason was practically begging for Natsu to train him and Elise just kept bopping him on the head.
"Alright everyone that's enough I have some things to say before we do anything alright," Natsu said more seriously as he pried Erza off of him. "First of all I have been asked by Life and Death to kick the war off early by attacking an Alvarez ship that has one of the Spriggan 12 on it and two members of the Leichart 12 guarding him. The reason he is being guarded is because he has kidnapped Master Mavis' soul," Natsu said as everyone except Jason recoiled in shock.
"We have to go and get her back!"
"How did she even get a hold of Master Mavis I thought she was just ethereal?"
"Erza, Elise settle down alright we will be going soon I just have some stuff to sort out before we go that I haven't really had the chance to do yet alright?"
The two nodded and stepped back as Natsu's eye drifted over to Wendy before turning back to the ground as a whole.
"Right so I want to talk to Wendy alone for a minute then I want to discuss some important information about the mission alright," Natsu said as everyone with the exception of Wendy looked at him in understanding.
"All right Natsu we'll take Jason over here and train until you're ready," Elise said as the three went off into the forest leaving Natsu and Wendy alone.
"Alright Wendy now do you know why I want to talk to you?"
Wendy shook her head making Natsu sigh knowing that this must have been the first time she used the Dragon's Fury.
"Alright so back in the fight against Bluenote do you remember the whole thing?"
"No I remember everyone getting badly hurt and he was about to get Jason and then I think I must have passed out."
"Let me be the first to tell you Wendy that you didn't pass out at all," Natsu said as Wendy cocked her head to the side. "You remember how I can use something called the Dragon's Fury?"
"That's the thing that triggers when you get really mad right; you did it on Tenrou Island right?"
"Yeah it's that, Wendy you don't remember because it was your first time using it but you used the Dragon's Fury in your fight against Bluenote to save Jason."
Wendy's jaw dropped as Natsu placed a hand on her shoulder giving her a warm smile.
"It's nothing to be ashamed of Wendy the fact that you are able to use the Dragon's Fury means you must be incredibly strong now you know, but there is something I want to make you aware of for the next time you may enter the Dragon's Fury and how it was activated."
"You mean mine isn't the same as yours?"
"No the trigger for each Dragon Slayer is different with mine being anger, Wendy the trigger for yours is losing. From what I can tell your trigger has developed based on your hidden fear of losing and becoming a burden to others, you become much more feral and do nearly anything in order to win the fight which is fine however it wouldn't be right if I didn't tell you about a few things you said. First thing you said was you consider me and Erza as your mother and father is that true?"
Wendy's eyes widened in shock as she quickly avoided his gaze; Natsu gently placed a few fingers on her chin and brought her head back to face him.
"You don't have to be embarrassed about it Wendy I'm so happy you consider Erza and I to be your parents it gives me a feeling I can't even describe, you also mentioned that Jason could be a potential little brother now I want to know what you mean by that?"
"Well you took him in for the same reason you took me in basically, no home and no one for him so I thought he would end up just being a part of our little family thing we have going."
"And what about Elise being like a big sister?"
"Well she really is she's not like Erza being all strict and motherly towards me she lets me do all sorts of cool things, for my seventeenth birthday we went into a town and she showed me the world of drinking."
"Better not let Erza ever hear about that she'd go crazy if she found out," Natsu said chuckling as Wendy smiled. "Anyway I don't want to spend all day embarrassing you but you need to know that you now have access to the Dragon's Fury and it can be your greatest asset or your biggest liability depending on how you use it. From now on you need to be more careful in combat due to the way it is triggered, unfortunately there isn't really a way to alter it or prevent it entirely so you'll just have to make sure to never lose."
"Easier said than done," Wendy scoffed as Natsu grinned.
"Hey just take a page out of my book I fight to the point of my body falling apart!"
"We don't all have Demon abilities that let us regenerate afterwards though Natsu …"
"True, alright enough about this you know about it now it's up to you to make sure you keep it in check like I do. Now then let's go round up the others we've got stuff to discuss and not a lot of time to do it."
Wendy nodded before giving Natsu a quick hug which he returned with a small smile.
"Hey what's this for?"
"For not teasing me about what I said …"
"Hey I'd never tease you over something like that you know that Wendy."
Even though she had grown up and projected a personality that was like Erza and Elise deep down she was still the same old Wendy Natsu knew, smiling he was surprised when she buried her head into his chest as he felt a few tears run down his chest.
"I spent a long time thinking it was my fault you went away you know, Erza, Mira and Elise always told me it wasn't but I really felt like it was. You had to come and save me and because of that your secret got revealed and now you can't be like a normal person anymore, I think that is where my idea of never wanting to lose came from to make you proud so that you won't go away again."
Natsu was silent as he held the young woman in his arms contemplating her words, he knew it wasn't Wendy's fault in the slightest but the idea of people leaving her was as prevalent as ever something that stemmed back to even her time with Grandina the Sky Dragon Queen.
"You won't go away again will you?"
When Natsu didn't answer she looked up at him surprised to find him shedding a single tear of his own.
"I can't promise something like that Wendy not with the way things are now."
"Why not?"
"Because every time I do the promise is always broken so I won't make it again, Erza and I got married because of this very reason Wendy because we know that this war could kill any of us especially me considering who I'm inevitably going to have to fight. Listen to me when I say this Wendy people don't choose to abandon you circumstances force it upon them, look at almost anyone in the guild they have the exact same stories of abandonment in one form or another."
"It just … it hurts all the time Natsu, I want to see Grandina again."
"Igneel?"
"You'd do it even without my permission so just get it over with but I'm not taking the blame for it," Igneel grumbled as Natsu smiled.
"Do you really want to see Grandina again, I can show you where she is though I really shouldn't be doing this …"
"You know where Grandina is tell me!"
"This might hurt so just stand still alright," Natsu said as he activated his Hybrid's Aura as Wendy became entranced by his Galaxy Blue and Crimson Red eyes.
Natsu had entered Wendy's mind much to her shock, motioning for her to follow Natsu dragged her across the windy plains until he found a cave with a large boulder in front of it.
"She's always been inside you Wendy and I don't mean she's been in your heart either, the Dragons were sealed within us a long time ago and we weren't meant to know they were there. Stand back for a moment and I'll get this boulder out of the way," Natsu said as he smashed the boulder using his Aura.
Wendy was about to charge into the cave but Natsu held her back, Wendy looked at him confused until she heard the sound of footsteps echoing ever closer.
Eventually a white Dragon emerged from the cave and let out a deafening roar before looking at the two in interest.
"Igneel's child what are you doing here and why have you revealed my existence to Wendy before her time?"
"I revealed your existence because Wendy has suffered from abandonment issues her whole life Grandina, she recently unlocked the use of the Dragon's Fury and the trigger is losing because she finds herself to be weak if she does and has the belief that she will be abandoned if she is weak."
Eyes widening slightly in surprise she moved her head towards Wendy with her snout almost touching Wendy's forehead.
"Yes I feel what you say Natsu this is most unfortunate I did not foresee such a thing occurring, would you please leave us so that I may converse with Wendy on- wait a minute why do I smell the knowledge of the Sky Dragons on you?"
Natsu looked confused before remembering the time he had to learn from the tablet in the Sky Dragon Temple and chuckled to himself.
"Here's the memory I'll leave you to it Grandina," Natsu said as he tapped the side of his head and vanished from Wendy's mindscape just in time to catch her from falling.
Placing her on the grass Natsu decided to just sit back against a tree until they were done since the meeting he wanted to have would require all of them to be listening.
"She took that rather well at least until she smelt knowledge of her own arts on you."
"I thought I was gonna get eaten for a moment."
"I'm going back to sleep now brat don't wake me up unless it's important alright?"
"Fine I'll talk to you later Igneel," Natsu said softly as he laid back thinking about the beginning of the war that was now right around the corner.
Hope you all enjoyed and I'll see you in the next one!
