Here we go! Chapter 22! Why did I get Happy and Carla alone? Will Carla finally be able to control her hormones? Only I know! I have never typed a pure hand-to-hand combat scene. Tell me moves and such in the reviews so I can make better ones in the future. Tell me what was good and what wasn't in the reviews please.
Chapter 22: Happy Begins Advanced Combat Training with Lucky.
Carla let Marl and Lucky give her a quick tour. When they got to the Bed Chambers, Lucky opened the door for Carla. Carla walked in and her jaw dropped at the size of the room. She looked at the bed in the middle and she was speechless at its size. Marl mewed, "Queen Shagotte decided to leave the castle mostly unfurnished so you and Happy can personalize it." Carla finally regained her composure and looked at the floor. It was a beautiful cherry wood floor. Carla asked, "H-How long did it take you guys to build this?" Lucky laughed and said, "It took all of us Exceeds a little over a month. We worked rather quickly. We already talked to the Magic Council and they said it was okay to set up around Magnolia." Carla nodded in understanding and she walked over to the bed. She gently let Happy slide off her back. Carla caught him before he hit the ground and activated her aera magic. Her four brilliant white wings appeared. Marl asked, "You have four wings Carla?" Carla nodded and said, "It must be because I am the Heavenly Exceed. I will eventually have six if not more. Happy has six wings and his are practically made of fire and he will also probably have more than six. Hints that he is the Infernal Exceed." Marl looked shocked but nodded in understanding.
Carla flew above Happy and picked him up gently. She laid Happy on the bed gently and flew over to Marl and Lucky. Carla said, "I am going to sleep too. And please don't give us servants, chambermaids, etc. We can take care of it." Lucky nodded and said, "Sleep well Princess Carla." Marl nodded and walked over to the bed, and kissed Happy's head gently. Marl left shortly after. After Carla was sure no one was in the room, she got undressed. Carla walked over to the closet naked, and started hanging up some of her clothes in it. Once she was finished doing that; she walked over to the bed and climbed into bed next to Happy. Her hormones began raging out of control, but Carla took a deep breath and muttered, "N-No. I refuse. You don't own me nor do you control me. I will vanquish you like Happy did." After several minutes, Carla had finally vanquished her hormones. She blushed as she did. Carla muttered, "I-I vanquished my hormones. I-I will tell Happy when he wakes. I-I can't believe it. I finally have control over my hormones!" Carla blushed dark red at what that meant. She muttered, "T-That means Happy and I can mate without hormones controlling our movements. W-We can finally seal the deal and seal our mate status." Carla blushed more and fell asleep next to Happy with a large smile on her face.
With the Traveling Group:
Natsu woke up and walked outside. Natsu muttered, "I hope Happy and Carla are okay." Frosch was awake cause he was standing guard, "Of course they are okay. Have faith in them. Besides, Happy is the most powerful among all of us. And our foe, named Fateweaver, who kidnapped the guilds said Happy is probably the most powerful Wizard alive." Natsu's jaw dropped and he said, "Seriously?" Frosch nodded and Natsu said, "H-He's gonna become one of the ten Wizard Saints then?!" Frosch replied seriously, "Most definitely." Natsu nodded in understanding, but was still shocked that Happy was that powerful.
The Next Day Back with Happy and Carla:
Happy felt something beside him. He slowly opened his eyes and blushed as he saw Carla sleeping next to him completely naked. Happy's thoughts raced a million miles a second. Happy took a breath and muttered, "She must've vanquished her hormones. Or she wouldn't sleep next to me naked." Happy blushed as he realized what that meant. Happy looked around the place he was in and his jaw dropped. He said quietly, "T-This bedroom is huge! Are we in a castle?!" Happy heard the door open and he watched Shagotte walk into the room. She smiled as she saw Happy awake. Shagotte mewed, "You must be confused." Happy nodded and Shagotte continued, "This is the castle that we Exceeds built for you and Carla." Happy was about to ask why they built himself and Carla a castle when Shagotte interrupted him, "We did it, because you two are the next King and Queen of the Exceeds." Happy blushed and nodded in understanding as he said, "I guess it is inevitable. She is your daughter and I am her mate after all." Shagotte nodded and asked, "Can you two stay for a little bit? I want Lucky to give you and Carla combat training. Yours will be much more advanced stuff than Carla's." Happy thought for a moment and said, "I suppose. But I have to get to the Fairy Tail Guild Hall soon. Don't tell me you guys rebuilt that too." Shagotte giggled and said, "We did. We knew it was the guild you and Carla are in." Happy sighed and said, "I was supposed to rebuild it as I am the one who blew it up with a single fireball." Shagotte shook her head and said, "It's fine." Happy nodded and Carla stirred next to him. Shagotte smiled and left the bedchambers.
Carla looked at Happy and beamed as she stretched felinely. Happy watched her and asked, "Sleep well, beautiful?" Carla purred and answered, "Of course I did. I got to sleep next to the love of my life in a very comfortable bed." Carla purred louder and continued, "I also vanquished my hormones last night. Hence why I slept next to you naked." Happy chuckled and said, "I figured as much. Shagotte asked me if we could stay for a little bit so we could get combat training from my father. I agreed. They also rebuilt the Guild Hall." Carla was shocked, but nodded in understanding. Carla went to get dressed. She chose a purple dress. Happy looked at her after she dressed and nodded his approval as he said, "Very beautiful. Suits you well." Carla beamed and the door opened again. Happy looked at the door and watched his father walk in. Happy jumped off the bed and Lucky said, "Time for your combat training Happy. No magic. I am under strict orders from Princess Carla to not let you use magic except your battle form during the fight." Happy looked at Carla and she said, "You need to recover your magic energy before you use all your magic abilities." Happy nodded and left with his father.
Carla walked out of her's and Happy's room and began to explore the castle on her own.
Happy walked out of the castle with his father into a clearing. A bunch of Exceeds had gathered there. Happy went to one side and his father went to the other. Lucky said, "Now. Training begins. I have learned from experience that training is better on the fly in the field of battle. I won't go easy on you." Lucky smirked and activated his battle form. He grew six times in size and his muscles from farming bunched in anticipation. The crowd howled in joy. Happy shook his head and activated his battle form. He grew six times in size. Happy's entire body that he trained by working out with Natsu bunched as he said, "I wouldn't want you to go easy on me. I won't go easy on you either."
Happy was about to make a move, when Lucky charged at him with his right fist raised. Happy barely got his arms up in time to block. Lucky swung again and Happy slipped the punch and came up with a left hook. Lucky blocked it with one arm and kicked towards Happy's stomach. Happy wasn't prepared and he took the kick without readying himself. Happy grunted in pain and slid backwards from the force of the kick. Lucky charged again and Happy rolled behind him. Happy ran towards his father and wrapped his arms around Lucky's stomach to suplex him. Lucky elbowed him in the face twice. Happy immediately dropped his father and rolled backwards to his feet as Lucky charged again. Happy read the movement and attempted to leg sweep his father. His father rolled right and got behind Happy to suplex him. Happy wasn't prepared and got suplexed. Happy coughed slightly in pain and kicked his father away from him. Happy kipped to his feet. Lucky smiled and said, "That was a powerful suplex. Most people would be done after that because of my strength. I am glad you are almost as strong as me." Happy mewed, "I am your son after all. Don't sound so surprised." Lucky nodded and waited for Happy to make a move. Happy took a deep breath and decided his attack plan.
Happy leapt at his father with his left fist reared back. Lucky prepared himself and Happy smirked as he almost finished the punch, but immediately switched it up and swung with his right fist after stopping his left fist a couple of inches from his father's face. Lucky barely read the movement in time and slipped the right punch and came up with a right hook. Happy took the punch and grunted in pain as he was knocked into a 360 from the punch. Happy wiped the blood off his lip and went to tackle his father. Lucky chuckled and attempted a leg sweep. Happy leapt over the move and swung at his father's head. Lucky seemed to know what was happening and rolled behind Happy; about to strike. Happy whirled around and caught his father's fist before it struck him. He turned his hand upside down and bent his father's hand up. Lucky grunted and elbowed Happy's arm with his left elbow in an attempt to break the hold. Happy barely winced and kicked Lucky's knee. Lucky fell to one knee and grabbed Happy's right leg before Happy could kick again. Lucky decided to deal with the pain he was about to feel because Happy still had his right hand and threw Happy behind him. Happy wasn't expecting it and was thrown behind his father, his hand holding Lucky's fist let go after he hit the ground. Lucky hissed in pain as his fist was bent backwards quite a bit from throwing his son and got on top of Happy. He reared his fist back to punch Happy.
Happy barely moved his head in time to avoid the punch. Happy brought his arms up to block his head. Lucky began striking his body. Happy grunted in pain and decided to punch it out. Happy punched his father's face. As they were on the ground, Happy felt Lucky move to the left to punch with his left fist. Happy used that and rolled left. They rolled on the ground and Happy ended up on top and began striking his father. Lucky got his legs on Happy's stomach and pushed Happy off, escaping the grapple. Both Happy's and Lucky's faces were bloody now. Happy went to get back on top, when his father rolled to the left and stood up. Happy whirled around only to catch a powerful haymaker to the face. Blood flew from Happy's face as he was sent flying backwards, blood from his face flying as he flew backwards. Happy landed harshly on his back and hissed in pain. Happy spit out a small mouthful of blood to the right of where he landed.
Carla didn't feel the pain Happy was feeling, but she knew Happy and his father were fighting cause she heard Happy's thoughts as he tried to think of some way to beat his father. She muttered, "Maybe there's something blocking the pain. Maybe there's a spell on the castle blocking the shared pain from the Mark of Mates. That has to be it. I should try to figure out this spell so I can block Happy's pain from me. Even if it will only be temporarily blocked."
Happy struggled to get up and Lucky said, "Had enough son?" Happy hissed, "N-No." Happy pushed himself to one knee when he heard Lucky charge him. Happy rolled right and got to his feet. Lucky whirled around and barely dodged a jab. Happy leapt backwards to avoid a counter-attack. Lucky leapt towards his son. Happy ducked over the leap and grabbed his father's leg. Happy slammed his father back onto the ground. Lucky grunted loudly in pain. Happy said, "Have you had enough dad?" Lucky laughed and said, "Nope. I haven't felt this young in years, my boy." Lucky got to his feet only to catch a left jab. Lucky chuckled and said, "Impressive." Happy low-kicked Lucky, but Lucky checked the kick. Happy growled in pain. Lucky attempted to roundhouse Happy immediately after the check, but Happy caught the kick. Happy spun his father around and hit his father's face with a powerful right jab. Blood sprayed from Lucky's face as Lucky was knocked backwards, but he landed on his feet. Happy leapt at his father to Superman punch him, but Lucky met Happy's fist with his own. Happy landed and spit up a large mouthful of blood to his side after he leapt back to a safe distance. Lucky was now breathing heavily, struggling to keep his battle form going. Happy noticed and lowered his fists and said, "We should wait until you regain your magic energy to go back into your battle form." Lucky nodded and said, "You are quite impressive, child. I was the best fighter in the Extalia army, and yet you can almost keep up with me." Lucky deactivated his battle form and fell to one knee. Happy deactivated his battle form. Both Exceeds' were bleeding from the fist fight. Happy walked over to his father and placed his paws in front of his father and muttered, "Heavenly Exceed Secret Art, Full Recovery!" White light shot from Happy's paws, immediately healing his father's injuries. Lucky looked at his son and asked, "What about you? KAAAHHH!" Happy chuckled and replied, "I can use magic to heal my own injuries, but Heavenly Exceed is not my magic. It's Carla's. So she is more proficient with it. I will go see Carla." Lucky nodded in understanding as he said, "Give me half a day before the next training session." Happy nodded and said, "I learned a decent amount from this fight. You were right. Learning on the fly is best as I learn how to adapt." Lucky beamed and got up. The crowd cheered for them both. Happy smiled and walked back to the castle, blood still flowing from his face.
Carla heard the front door open and she bolted towards it. She gasped as she saw Happy. She realized how bloody his face was and she immediately flew towards him. Happy smiled as she landed in front of him. Carla said, "Damn. Your father did a number on you." Happy laughed and said, "Yes. He did. But he got it almost as bad. I healed his injuries after the fight." Carla nodded and mewed, "I can sense your magic store is still almost as full as when you woke up. Guess your battle form doesn't take much magic energy." Happy replied, "I am quite young so that would explain that one." Carla nodded and put her paws out. She mewed, "Heavenly Exceed Secret Art, Full Recovery!" White light shot out of Carla's paws and immediately healed Happy's injuries. Happy sighed in relief and mewed, "Thank you!" Carla said, "No problem sweetie." Happy kissed Carla deeply and Carla purred. Happy said, "You should come watch the next fight. I will definitely win as long as you're watching." Carla mewed, "How long from now?" Happy answered, "Probably about half a day. If not more. My father is not as young as he used to be."
Happy got an idea and he chuckled. Happy said, "Back up Carla." Carla looked curious and obeyed. Happy immediately got into a stance similar to the Iced Shell stance. Magical power flowed like a rushing river from him as red fire flowed around him. Carla gasped and said, "THE ICED SHELL?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! ARE YOU TRYING TO DIE?!" Happy mewed, "It is not the exact same stance. I am not an ice wizard so I can not cast Iced Shell. I think I can make this into a move that won't kill me but immediately kill my opponent. I will never use it except as a last resort against a powerful foe, as the one who receives this attack will almost certainly die. It will take me at full magical power though, cause it will unleash all my magic in one absolutely devastating move. What to name it?" Happy exited the stance that was similar to the Iced Shell stance and Magic Power quit flowing from him like a river. Carla shook her head and said, "Go sleep. Now. Or I will make you faint again." Happy blushed and nodded as he walked to his and Carla's bedroom.
Carla watched Happy go into their room and sighed in relief. Carla walked towards the kitchen and began to cook a meal for herself and Happy.
Back with the Traveling Group:
Natsu stopped his group. Happy and Carla had been gone for a day and a half now. They had to fight some vulcans and trolls recently. Everyone was stressed and hungry. A wolf walked towards them. Natsu recognized Logan and said, "Hey Logan." Logan replied, "Hello. Are you guys hungry? We just took down half a herd of deer. So we have plenty of food for everyone." Natsu nodded and asked, "Why are you willing to share your food with us?" Logan answered, "You are all a part of the pack. Happy is our Alpha Male and Carla is our Alpha Female. Since they are friends with you, we will take care of you just like we'd take care of the Alpha Male and Carla. A pack looks out for their own." Sting nodded in understanding and said, "That makes sense to me." The rest of the group said their agreements.
Logan and another wolf each dragged a deer back to the group. Frosch said, "Thank you so much." Logan smiled and said, "Anytime." Logan and the other wolf walked away.
Natsu took a deep breath. He was about to do something when Frosch and Lector began skinning and gutting the deer with their claws. When they finished, Rogue asked, "When the hell did you two learn how to skin and gut a deer?" Lector replied, "Happy taught us. He knows quite a bit more than he lets on. He is also one hell of a cook. He cooks everything to perfection." Wendy gasped and asked, "Are you serious?" Frosh replied, "Serious as a heart attack, Wendy." Natsu nodded in understanding and said, "Well. I can't let him show me up. Guess I'll have to cook the deer as I am sure none of us want raw venison." Rogue said, "Just be careful. Don't burn it to a crisp." Natsu nodded.
Natsu took a breath and said, "Fire Dragon Roar!" Fire shot from his mouth and he immediately stopped after a few seconds. The meat was cooked decently.
Back with Happy and Carla:
Happy awoke at the smell of food coming from somewhere in the castle. Happy had rested for a decent amount of time, recovering a decent amount of his magic energy.
Happy got out of bed and walked towards the smell. Happy stopped at what looked like a kitchen and he saw Carla cooking. He leaned on the door frame and watched her cook with a smile.
Carla got the feeling she was being watched. She looked around and saw a Blue Tomcat leaning on the door frame with a smile on his face. Carla smiled and said, "Hey Love." Happy replied, "Hey Beautiful. What are you making? Because it smells absolutely divine." Carla blushed and said, "I am making a dish I haven't made in forever. I am making a true chicken parmesan dish. I also made some appetizers and vegetables as well as baked homemade bread sticks to dip in the marina sauce if you'd like. I've been in the kitchen since you went to sleep." Happy smiled again and said, "You didn't need to spend a third of the day in the kitchen to make a five-star meal, Carla. Something simple would've been just fine." Carla giggled and said, "Maybe so. But I haven't cooked in awhile. I wanted to make something special to mark the day I vanquished my hormones. It has put almost as much of a pep in my step as you do."
Happy nodded in understanding as he blushed and said, "Alright Babe." Carla blushed at the word babe and giggled.
Once Carla had finished cooking, she began to set the table in the dining hall. Happy carried all the stuff Carla made to the table and began to put food on the plates. Carla said, "Next time, we should invite our parents." Happy nodded his agreement. Happy sat down and Carla sat next to him. Happy looked deep into her beautiful brown gaze and beamed as he said, "It looks delicious. This type of homemade meal every day? I truly landed the perfect mate. But don't worry. I will cook just as much. I am not old fashioned. I also don't expect you to clean everything by yourself. Like I said. I am not old-fashioned." Carla giggled and said, "I know Happy. I know. Shall we dig in? With table manners obviously." Happy nodded.
After they finished eating, Happy purred happily and mewed, "That was the best meal I've ever had the honor and pleasure of eating." Carla blushed dark red and said, "Stop it you. You're making me blush!" Happy chuckled and said, "Good. Because it's the truth." Carla wiped her lips with a napkin and kissed Happy deeply. Happy kissed back and purred louder as he asked, "Gonna come watch the fight this time? I will do my best to not get hit so you don't feel any pain." Carla beamed and said, "Of course I will. But I think I figured out a way to block your pain from reaching me temporarily at least." Happy nodded in understanding.
Happy cleared the table and carried the dirty dishes back to the kitchen. He began washing the dishes as he whistled. Once he finished, Happy thought to Carla, 'Ready? I will meet you at the front door.' Carla replied mentally, 'Just about. Meet you there.' Happy walked to the door and waited. He heard footsteps approaching and he looked at the source of the sound. Happy smiled as Carla walked into view, wearing a white dress.
Carla smiled and said, "How do I look?" Carla twirled and the dress went up a bit. Happy watched and said, "Absolutely beautiful. Then again. You always look absolutely beautiful." Carla blushed and said, "Awwwwwweeee. Thanks, Happy." Happy replied, "No need to thank me for the truth." Carla nodded and the doors to the castle opened. Happy looked over and saw his father. Lucky said, "Here we go again, Happy. And it looks like Princess Carla is gonna watch this one." Happy nodded and said, "I can't lose as long as she is watching." Lucky laughed and said, "I'm looking forward to this one." Lucky led Happy and Carla to the clearing. A large crowd had gathered again and Happy took a breath to calm his nerves. Carla went to the side to cheer Happy on after casting the spell that would block Happy's pain from reaching her. Carla had to study the spell on the castle to learn how to do it.
Happy walked to one side if the clearing and his father got towards the other one. Lucky mewed, "I had a hearty meal after the last fight. So. I should be able to hold my battle form longer. I gathered a few special herbs and put them in to make my magic energy last longer." Lucky activated his battle form. Happy chuckled and activated his battle form. Happy said, "You're going down this time father." Lucky chuckled and said, "Bring it."
Happy chuckled and rushed towards his father. Lucky went to trip Happy, but Happy leapt over his father and gripped Lucky's stomach from behind after he landed and suplexed Lucky. Lucky coughed and got to his feet. Lucky swung towards Happy. Happy slipped the punch and hit Lucky's body with six quick strikes. Happy heard Carla cheering him on loudly. Happy smirked and slipped another punch only to get kicked in the side with a powerful strike. Happy slid backwards. Lucky rushed Happy. Happy met his father and they began a free for all at close range.
Happy and Lucky kept striking each other at close range. Blood was flying everywhere from each strike. Lucky backed up to get out of range, but Happy closed the gap immediately and picked his father up by the throat. Happy choke slammed Lucky. Lucky coughed in pain and got to his feet again. Lucky managed to get behind Happy and suplexed Happy as hard as he could. Happy grunted loudly in pain. Happy kicked Lucky away as far as he could and kipped to his feet. Lucky said, "Damn boy. You're a force to be reckoned with." Happy mewed, "So are you. But I told you. I refuse to lose while Carla is watching!" Lucky laughed.
Carla cheered loudly for Happy. She yelled, "Come on Happy! You can do this! I believe in you! I love you!" Happy heard Carla yelling and he felt strength flow through him. Happy smirked and tackled his father to the ground. Happy sat up and began striking his father. Lucky tried to push Happy off him, but Happy countered the attempts. Lucky blocked his head, only to receive powerful strikes to the body. Lucky managed to finally get his feet on Happy's body and kicked Happy off of himself. Lucky got up only to catch a powerful haymaker to the face. Lucky was sent flying backwards from the force of the strike. Blood flew as Lucky flew. Happy wiped his lips to get the blood off them. Lucky struggled to get up and Happy said, "Had enough?" Lucky said slowly, "Nope. This is good. No one's ever been able to land this many attacks on me in a fist fight. You impress me, my son." Lucky got to his feet.
Happy rushed at his father with his right fist raised. Lucky foresaw the move and dodged left when Happy went to swing with his left fist cause the right was just a feint. Happy was shocked and whirled around only to catch a right hook to the face. Blood flew from Happy's face. Happy laughed as he stopped himself from spinning from the punch. Lucky looked shocked but slipped a right jab. Lucky tried to low-kick Happy, but Happy checked the kick. Lucky grunted in pain. Happy blocked a hook with one arm and struck his father with his left fist. Lucky got hit and was sent skidding backwards. Happy rushed forwards.
Carla was watching the fight when she realized someone approached her. Carla looked over and saw her mother. Shagotte said, "Your mate is something else. No one has ever managed to keep up with Lucky in a fist fight." Carla replied, "I think Happy and Natsu used to spar a bit. Happy also works out. You wouldn't know it when you looked at him in his normal form unless you looked closely." Shagotte smiled and said, "I see. Makes sense." Carla nodded and continued to watch the fight.
Happy was sent skidding backwards from a kick to his stomach. Happy took a breath and saw his father leap at him, fist raised. Happy chuckled and met his father. Their fists collided and a war to move the other's fist began. Lucky moved Happy's fist a bit, but Happy immediately regained that lost ground. Lucky laughed and said, "This is interesting." Happy nodded and moved Lucky's fist a bit. Lucky grunted and tried to regain the ground. Happy was forcing his father's fist back bit by bit. Lucky grunted and hissed loudly as he forced Happy's fist back to almost the starting point. Happy's arm shook and he hissed loudly as he roared and forced Lucky's fist back almost to Lucky's chest. Lucky tried to regain the ground, but couldn't. Lucky's fist was knocked aside and Lucky took the full force of Happy's fist to his face. Lucky was sent flying backwards.
Carla watched Happy win the war of fists and knock his father back. Carla mewed, "God damn. That had to hurt." Shagotte nodded her agreement.
Lucky didn't move. Happy gasped in fear and ran over to his father. Happy yelled, "Father! Are you alright?! Carla come here!" Carla flew over and began to cast a spell when Lucky coughed. Lucky said weakly, "I-Impressive. I've never lost a fist fight. Y-You win Happy." Happy hissed, "I don't care about that. Are you okay?!" Lucky nodded and said, "That punch knocked me out. It had quite a bit of power behind it. You didn't kill me. I know that's what you were worried about." Happy sighed in relief and said, "I never would have forgiven myself if that punch killed you dad." Lucky nodded in understanding. Happy helped his father up. Lucky raised his voice and said, "Happy wins this fight!" Roars came from the crowd and Happy chuckled. Carla pointed her paws at Happy and Lucky and said, "Heavenly Exceed Secret Art, Full Recovery!" White light shot from her paws and healed both their injuries immediately. Shagotte walked to them and said, "That was an impressive brawl. I was impressed." Lucky smiled and said, "My son is more powerful than even I was when I was his age. Well fought, Happy." Lucky stuck his hand out. Happy took it and shook his father's hand as he said, "Likewise dad."
Carla walked with Happy's paw in her own. Happy deactivated his battle form and became normal size. Carla smiled and led Happy to the castle.
There we go! ALSO! Shall I make the next chapter a lemon? I did say I was more comfortable writing them now. Who wants a lemon?! And who doesn't want a lemon?! Let me know. I will give it about a week.
Happy: W-Wait. A lemon?! Y-You wouldn't dare!
Carla: *Blushes dark red* A-A lemon. B-Between who?!
Me: *laughs* Take a guess.
Carla: *faints*
Happy: *catches Carla before she falls*
