Hmm. Well this here is the first chapter of a new story I am working on. Oh and this is my FIRST story for Fairy Tail.

So since I will be getting some new people that have never read anything I've written, allow me to introduce myself.

I am LordxSesshomaru! I mainly stay in my corner in Highschool DxD but my little sister who is absolutely addicted to Fairy Tail has forced me to sit here and watch the anime... and as much as I wanted to stay out of this anime because I know how good it is((Ive been told so many times)), and that I knew I would get addicted... I still watched it.

Well, I instantly fell in love like I thought. It's a great anime so far and I really enjoy it. So yea, now I get to bring my writing talents that have plagued the DxD part of Fanfiction over here where I can butcher this anime as well. hehehe.

Edit: This story is a harem story as of chapter 6 of my story. It is Natsu X Erza X Cana X Mirajane. That's. No more. No less. Each and every character has been given their proper role and will all be used properly in my story.

Oh... and be warned. My greatest skill is tragedy and angst. I work well with sad and depressing beginnings.

Now without further Adieu, here is the story!

Natsu Dragneel, as he was named by his mother, was 8 years old, turning nine in a few months. He was currently tied to a steel bed that was sitting up right. His arms and legs were spread eagle, chains on the wrists and ankles to the bed spread. The chains were very loose on his wrists, meaning he was hanging on his own weight while his ankles were tightly strapped in. This made the punishment even harsher. He was currently within what was dubbed, The Tower of Heaven. He was wearing a Black Trench coat that had a very large hood that hid his features behind the darkness. His captors had given it to him.

His mind was focused on his past, his memories of what was.

Flashback time.

Natsu Dragneel is the son of a very untrained and weak wizard known as Katase Dragneel. She had long pink hair. She was walking home to her village one day when she was attacked by an evil man. The mans name was… Acnologia, though the name or being was unknown to the woman. The only thing that mattered was that he attacked her… and that night he raped her over and over, enjoying himself immensely while the woman cried. After he was done, she found out that her entire village had been completely destroyed.

She had moved away to a house in the forest near a village known as Rosemary, and it was three months into her new home when she found out that she was pregnant. When the child was born, she couldn't help but feel happiness. A child of her own, considering the doctors told her that she wasn't able to carry children due to being sterile, but there he was. A Child of her own. It may be with a man she never loved and raped her, but she instantly fell in love with the boy. He had pink hair, just like her.

They stayed to themselves and Katase raised the boy on her own. The boy was named Natsu Dragneel, giving him a name that she fell in love with as a child. Just a name that she wanted to name a child of her own. Natsu Dragneel had almost all of his fathers facial features, though a few features were entirely Natsu's own. His hair was a natural spike, unable to be kept straight no matter how hard his mother tried. He had two blue markings on each side of his jaw that looked like sharp jagged edges while he had two more blue markings above his eyes, which also connected with his eyes. His eyes however were something that was entirely his own. The Iris was black with a red pupil, though the pupil was slitted like that of a dragon or a reptile like a snake.

Up and down Natsu's right side of the body were black tattoos, shaped in strange patterns that were all connected. The Tattoo's went up the right side of his face, avoiding the blue markings where the tattoos surrounded the underside of his right eye. The tattoo would also cover the right side of his pectorals before they stopped at his hip. Natsu also had elongated incisors, which were very sharp though since they were baby teeth they weren't that bad. Just made breast feeding interesting.

It was about seven months into Natsu's eight year of being alive when his house was wiped away by a blast of white energy. Natsu watched in silent horror as his mother was killed by a man that looked similar to Natsu in facial features. The man crushed his mother's windpipe and neck before looking down at Natsu.

"I never wanted to have a child… this is a disgrace to me… I will let you live for a reason I do not understand… but when we next cross… you… will… die." The man stated before changing into a large black dragon with blue markings on his scales flying off into the air. The pressure wave from his wings, sent the child flying away from the destroyed village, also sending his mother's body away. Natsu was knocked unconscious from the blast but when he awoke, he was in chains, being carried in a cart up a large ramp with other children around his age.

Natsu spent a month in what what was known as the Tower of Heaven, a construct being built in the middle of an ocean. It was being built on child slave labor and the men who captured them were cruel and unforgiving. Food was barely edible and there wasn't much food or water. The children were being worked for sixteen hours a day before getting a little rest on the cold hard steel floor of a cage. Children often slept in their own waste, meaning many got sick and were carried away, never to be seen again. It wouldn't matter as more children were brought into the tower to replace the lost workers. It was hell.

One day during work, Natsu was caught stealing some food from one of the captors carts and was immediately apprehended, taken for punishment… which is where Natsu was now.

Flashback end.

About five minutes after his memories ended, the cell door opened and a little girl about two years older than him was brought into the cell and tied up with her hands behind a pole.

"So, you thought you would steal from one of our nice workers and after how much kindness we showed you. A pity... so it was this arm that stole from us yes?" Spoke a one-eyed toad looking man. He grabbed a large meat cleaver from a table nearby before he grinned. "Bad children must be punished." He laughed evilly before he swung the blade down, cleaving the top digits of the three fingers in the middle of his left hand, which got a scream of agony to come from Natsu, which awoke the female who had the perfect angle to watch.

"AAAAAAAAH!" Natsu screamed as the cleaver came down once again, cleaving through the middle of his left hand.

"Oh your screams are annoying!" The man spotted, using magic to silence the boy who had tears streaming down his eyes. The little girl watched as the cleaver came down onto the muted boy, cleaving his hand off at the wrist. The boy struggled with futile efforts because the chains were tightened. He was no longer hanging as his left arm was facing to the left, like the letter T though his right was still up in the air.

It took five minutes of constant chopping and tears, but right where the arm meets the shoulder, the arm was cleaved off before the blood flow was sealed. The captor put the cleaver back on the cart and removed the silencer charm, now only hearing the whimpering of the boy, who cried. He chuckled evilly and moved the cart over towards the scarlet haired woman against the pole. Of course, the mage began to feel anger and hatred radiating off of the boy, so the captor turned from in front of the scarlet haired woman.

"Oh… that anger and hatred coming off of you is quite delicious… Don't worry boy. You won't be killed… you will be put back to some sort of work…" He chuckled evilly before he grabbed a tool that was just a metal rod with a claw attachment at the end. There was also a little lever that made the claw close up. "Now for you little lady… You attempted to escape with the other children in your cell block. A VERY naughty crime for a little girl… you obviously do not see how valuable your work is to us… so we must make you see… Maybe losing an eye will allow you to see properly!" The captor yelled out before driving the claw right into her right eye, forcing her to scream and attempt to thrash around but the magic circles on both sides of her head kept her still. She kept yelling and yelling as the man wiggled the claw around before he ripped out her eyeball, leaving nothing but a bloody hole in his path.

"You… dare hurt a little girl… You… must…. Pay." Spoke Natsu, those his voice was distorted due to the anger. The captor turned only for his one large eye to widen. The scarlet woman was also watching, as Natsu's chains were completely melted and destroyed, his one hand covered in a black flame while his red slitted eyes were glowing brightly, the only visible thing through the cloak.

"You little brat! You have outlived your usefulness!" The toad spoke, forming a green magic circle that matched his skin color.

"ANNIHILATION DRAGONS SHADOW FLAME WAVE!" Natsu roared in fury, a black magic circle appearing right in front of his face. The magic circle had the image of a single long dragon that was eating it's own tail. When the magic circle disappeared, a flat wave of black fire blew from the trench coat of Natsu, striking the one eyed torturer right in the chest before engulfing him in the fire. The trench coat's hood moved in turn and engulfed the two guards that came through the doors with their weapons drawn. The flames killed them in five seconds but the flames never died out on their bodies as the fire continued to burn.

The scarlet haired little girl stayed there and looked up at Natsu who approached her, terror gripping her as she stared up at those red pupils. She flinched when he raised his right hand only to feel her body gently collapse as her binds were broken but she didn't hit the ground. She was held by his flaming right hand, only to feel that his flames weren't hot at all… if anything they were warm and soothing. She looked up at him with her one eye and gave him a small smile, gently sitting on the ground.

"You… saved me."

"You need to save yourself… go and find your friends and get out of here…" Spoke Natsu, those his voice was still very much distorted. "Good bye… miss..."

"Erza..."

"What is your last name?" The boy asked, stopping from moving to the door. "I wish to remember you… for you gave me reason to fight."

"I don't have a last name… I never had one… Perhaps… you could give me one?" She asked, Erza looking up at the boy who saved her, her heart fluttering.

"Your hair… is really nice… I think I would like to name you after your hair… Scarlet."

"Erza Scarlet." She whispered, only to watch as Natsu was moving away. "Wait! What is your name!" She cried, but Natsu was gone.

Natsu had heard her but didn't respond, not wanting to respond. He remembered going to the village with his mother for shopping and all of the looks towards him. No one liked him… he looked different to them so they hated him. They even hated his mother… but his mother never once cried in front of him… she stood strong. Natsu didn't want Erza to hate him either… so he would let her forget about him.

Natsu made a large path through the tower, his shadow flame annihilating the weak guards. They were just numerous but the flames never stopped burning. They would consume all in their path. As he made a hole in the wall of the tower, he found himself passing out from his power and the lack of blood since he did have his arm chopped off, falling into the ocean.

He awoke somewhere far away, the tower not even in sight. He found himself on the beach of a forest where he would begin a new life for himself.

After two years, Natsu had gained control over his power, though only a very very very small fraction of it he could use. His power was immense but was hidden behind his own will as the very power he held, was almost equal to that of Acnologia but if he would use this power… he would lose himself in the process and become one equal to that of Zeref. As being the son of Acnologia, Natsu's power was centered on destruction. He had control over shadow and flame. They were naturally more powerful than normal due to the destructive power they held. Flames that would never extinguish until they devoured everything in their path. Shadow that would cover up all of the light, letting none escape. This dark power also threatened to swallow him up at all times as he heard voices. Voices telling him to kill and destroy, constantly talking to him.

He also has a new arm, a dragon arm. Due to being the Son of Acnologia, a dragons arm grew out of the nub where his old arm was, slowly growing. It was black and had blue markings, just like what was on his face, up and down the underside of his arm and the top. His hand ended in five razor sharp claws.

Four years passed since the death of his mother and the escape from the Tower of Heaven. Natsu would walk around the many lands of Earth Land, from Iceberg to Desierto though his main place of residence was within the large kingdom of Fiore. It was densely populated and was filled with many jobs that paid well though Natsu would never take the full amount, only enough to eat. Natsu may have taken a lot of the facial features from his father and maybe some personality traits… but the most defining traits of Natsu were that of his mother. His mother was a kind and generous woman who would help those out in need, only taking what was necessary in order to live. She didn't live a grand life but she lived a life she enjoyed. A happy one. This was something that he lived for… to live a happy life and to help others.

Now that eight years have passed from his escape, he was known sixteen years old. He had now about five years under his belt wandering the lands of the world, with three and a half of them within Fiore. He had become a very popular figure in the land of Fiore, though it was one of fear. Most viewed him as an agent of evil, coming to their lands to pray on their souls, taking jobs in order to get their souls with a contract or something. It also didn't help that Natsu wore a trench coat identical to the one he wore in the Tower of Heaven, only much larger thanks to Natsu's large size, even though he was still growing. He would never have anything visible when people looked at him, except a very faint outline of his eyes. His arms were also hidden from view, but the worst part was that Natsu carried with him a very dark and sinister aura. It came from his powers and not his personality.

Due to this, many towns and cities have put up requests all over Fiore, in the magical guilds, for someone to take care of the wandering menace that is Natsu, though none knew his name. Many have attempted to find the boy, but just like a shadow… He was gone at the first sign of the light coming to eradicate him. However… there was one that was determined to find him and put an end to his terror…

A Scarlet-Haired woman walked along the path of a dark forest, following the trail of a very dark power.

'I've found you evil one… you're reign of terror is over!'

Read. Review. Moo.

Please keep the flaming to a minimum. My little sister warned me people won't like me shipping Erza and Natsu but I wont put up with it. Now criticism is welcome though.

Ah. You might have noticed I didn't reveal anything or do anything with Erza in the tower. So here is why. Basically, the only things that changed were that Natsu saves Erza in the torture room and gives her the last name. he also is the one who lets her escape.

Other then that, EVERYTHING that hapened in canon, happened. Jellal is possesed, she gets requip and what not. Ok? ok.
