1: Natsu Goes Back in Time

7th July x791 Crocus

'This wasn't a battle, no it was a one sided slaughter. The Dragons did appear but from the west, the exact opposite direction of the eclipse gate so Hisui couldn't fire on them when we had the chance. We actually started out pretty well beating them back, but they just kept on coming. Hell even Future Rouge help out with the fighting but it was all for nothing. Cobra downed at least ten dragons, Laxus did an overwhelmingly high fifty, the twin dragons killed about forty-five, Wendy killed at least twelve which was quite the achievement for her at such a young age while Gajeel and myself each took down about eighty. Future Rouge left is in the dust with a kill count of one hundred. We were winning but ten thousand was just too much and one by one we fell. First Lamia, Mermaid, Quarto, Sabretooth, Pegasus and finally Fairy tail. We lost our cool and charge in for revenge but ended up with the same result.' Natsu thought to himself as he applied pressure to the large gush that was oozing darken blood onto the floor from his stomach with his right arm since he was missing his left. Natsu was in pain. His entire body hurt so bad if it wasn't for his will to fight, he would have been already dead but he wondered to himself why?, everyone in his guild, his family, were already dead and here he is wondering why isn't he dead. He had nothing left to fight for.

He pushed himself off the ground with the little strength he had left. He managed to get to his feet and keep himself up using his wobbling legs to support himself, but he couldn't go any farther. He coughed up blood as his insides felt like they were being torn to shreds, maybe it has something to do with all the iron shrapnel still in his gut from that last dragon breath attack that also took his arm. He raised his head to look around. His eyes widened in horror at the destruction he failed to prevent.

"No..." He muttered as his entire body shook in fear. Crocus, the blooming city capital of Fiore and the city that host the Grand Magic Games, but now, it looked like hell rose and occupied the city as its new home. The street or what were left of them, was completely engulfed in flames buildings were left as rubble from the earlier fighting. "No..." Natsu growled. He looked over to his right and his heart felt like it just shattered at the sight of his nakama.

They were all sprawled across the area. They weren't moving. Fear set into his heart at their motionless bodies. "E-Everyone..." He called out to them, but none responded back to him. Looking at each one of his friends one at a time, he understood why they weren't responding to him. They were all...dead. "N-No..." Natsu's entire body shook at the realization. Each of his friends were laying in a pools of thier own blood and the eyes of those that were facing in his direction, were lifeless but what got to him the most was the fact that Ultear dead body layes next to him after he tried to stopped the bleeding from her wound on her neck. He spent the next few minutes trying to save his mate but ended up failing her but at least she tried with a smile on her face because thanks to their efforts Meledy had gotten away with the rest of the small task force sent to guard the civilians as they got out. Tears started cascading down his cheeks. "N-No...NO!"

Natsu couldn't hold it back anymore. The tears were now streaming down his face like two waterfalls. He continuously slammed his one fist against the ground. "Damn it! Damn it! DAMN IT!" He cried. He dug his nails into the ground and clenched his fists, dragging some of the dirt along with his motion. He couldn't believe he let his friends down. Because of his weakness he couldn't save them. He couldn't protect them, his friends, his family, everyone. He couldn't protect them.

"I'm so weak! If only I was stronger! I'm sorry! I'm sorry, everyone!". He screamed out to the heavens as he let saw a dragon approaching. From the color scheme of its scales and over all body type he could tell it was a sky dragon which just brought back all his memories of Wendy as well as her laying dead missing her lower half since Zirconis ate the rest which knocked out all the fight in him as the mighty beast prepared to fire a breath attach at him he kneeled there waiting for it to consume him whole.

'Funny, I'm the guy that says you should live for your friends instead of dying for them. But what do you do when they are already dead? I guess I'll can ask Mavis that question when I met her soon.' Natsu thought to himself as he felt at ease with his fate, at least he was dying a Dragon-Slayers death and he found some solace in that fact. As the attack was launched at him h closed his eyes and said one word as he prepared for the end.

"Forgive me my love"

But before he was consumed by the tornado of wind something happen that he wasn't expecting, there was a blinding light. Warm and welcoming and when he went near it he was sucked in the light. Few minuets later he woke up near someone really beautiful, she was the same girl that saved them from the roar of Acnologia and first master of Fairy tail herself who she is she said something to Natsu.

"Natsu my dear, I have a special mission for you." Said the girl calmly with power radiating form her voice.

"FIRST MASTER! Wait I'm a dead, didnt Burt as much as I thought it would and is this heaven, I thought there would be more fire everywhere?" asked Natsu as he looked around the place. Making Mavis gain a sweatdropped at Natsu thinking that there would be fire for him to eat.

"You do realize that its Hell that has all the raging fires around right?" She asked the eager slayer.

"Really then why am I here if that's where all the fire at?" He asked her in return which made her confused before she started giggling to herself at his way of thinking.

"He is exactly as you said he would be, inst that right Zeref?" She asked the figure standing behind Natsu. At the mention of the black Wizards name Natsu stopped laughing and immediately turn around and sported the infamous black haired killer.

"You! What the hell are you doing here and how the hells name did you of all people get into heaven?!" Natsu demanded of him as he prepared for a fight.

"Natsu calm down, he is not your enemy and this isn't heaven nor hell we are in." Mavis spoke in a powerful voice that scared the shit outs Natsu till he looked around.

When Natsu looked around he saw the whole place it was shining it was like a big garden with hundred types of flowers around the whole place and a big tree in center, under the tree there was a table for four and three chairs, on the table there were three cups of tea, three pieces of cake and a flower pot with a crimson lotus in it. It was really beautiful place Natsu thought, but the thing that caught Natsu's attention the most was that everything in this garden was shining and giving same warmth as the light earlier. He also noticed that all he's injuries were still present as he liked at the gush on his stomach and his missing arm. He wanted to keep fighting but if the first master was comfortable around the black wizard then he would at least give him a chance to speak before he tore off his head.

"Let's have a sit, I have something important to talk with you." Said Mavis with warm smile that could even melt a frozen country of Iceberg.

"Sure." said Natsu in a uneasy voice as he sat down on one side of the table and Mavis and Zeref sat on the other side but what stood for him was how Mavis leaned her head on Zeref's shoulder and gained a happy smile while he looked just as happy but he decided to ask questions later.

When they sat on the little table Natsu immediately tried the tea and ate from the cake that made Natsu forget that he was having tea with the First and the most infamous man in history. There was only one word that came in Natsu's head in this moment "Delicious". When she heard this her smile become even bigger and she said "Thank you for the compliment young one." She spoke to him.

"Alright I know that you have some questions about all this that you want answers for?" Zeref asked in calm voice as Natsu finished stuffing himself who then gained a serious expression at Zeref speaking and held back from fighting him in front of the first.

"Hell Yeah I do like why are you here, where is here, how do you know the first and why do the two of you act like couple?" He asked in rapid succession and was quite shocked as they both gained a noticeable blush at his last question.

"Alright I guess I will fill in in all I know and let Mavis carry on from there. But first Natsu please don't interrupt me till the since we cam can only be here for a limited time." Zeref spoke in a calm and serious voice as he waited a few moments till Natsu agreed albeit reluctantly. Zeref then went on to explain everything on his and Natsu's shared past from Natsu dying at a young age, Zeref creating Eclipse and and R-system in hopes of bring him back but as a Etherious, being successful in bring Natsu back, being cursed by God Ankhsersam with the 'curse of contradictions, him creating the demons in hopes of killing himself but failing each time, Zeref followers stealing the books of Zeref and releasing them on the world and all the way to the point where he, Anne and the Dragon slayers parents plan to send the kids to the future in hopes of killing Ancologia when they had the strength to do so.

"So you are saying that I'm a Etherious-Dragon hybrid, am over four hundred years old in spirit and the only creature in existence that can kill you?" Natsu asked them both as he was having a really hard time processing all this new information.

"Well yes that is correct but I can see that its right because if I recall correctly, you and Gajeel couldn't pass though Freed runes during Laxus's little rebellion." Mavis said as she too was unaware of this information but could see that Zeref was truthful and being honest with herself she could always sense demonic power from Natsu that far surpass that of Mirajane who specialized in Demon-takeover.

"Also Ancologia is out to destroy you for the sole reason of you being stronger then him of you release your true power but he can only track you down when you are not wearing your scarf because its made from Ingeel's scales as material but was made by Anne Heartfilia so it could masked your presence and even making it celestial spirit clothing which explains how you survived going through the C.S.W( celestial spirit world) with Virgo the first time you met. In fact the only reason he showed up on tenrou was because he sensed your presence so do keep it on your person your person at all times and you can only remove it for twenty minutes three times a day but before you stop blaming yourself for tenrou know that it wasn't your fault at all you don't think that otherwise you be acting like your friends Lucy and Exza did when Phantom attack ot the tower incident." Zeref explained knowing that Natsu would have started to blame himself for his guilds suffering during the seven years that they were gone if not for his calming words.

"But what about Sting and Rouge?, they killed thier parents so where are thier dragons?" Natsu asked the two of them after he calmed down enough to talk.

"Their parents or dragons used simple memory replacement magic on them, don't asked me how or why they did since you would have to speak with Weisslogia and Skiadrum themselves on that matter." Zeref said.

"And what about the part where the two of you became friends with benefits?" Natsu asked acting like Happy whenever he teases other just to see them both blush up a storm and lose thier cool like a couple of teens caught by thier parents.

"T-there's a re-reasonable explanation for t-that." Mavis said as she begun to tell Natsu everything from how they met, how he helped her and Fairy tail to be founded, how they fell in love with one another, how she contracted the same curse which they at first thought was good since he could love her without fear of killing her but ended up putting her in a life and death coma like state, and the creation of 'Lumen Histiorie' or 'Fairy Heart'.

"Wow just...wow" Natsu said at a lost for words here.

"I know, its a lot to take in but take your time with it." Mavis said sounding like some kind of consular.

"No I get that part and everything, I'm just having a hard time believing that in your first encounter with each other was when Zeref was naked and saw his 'truly strongest demon.'" Natsu snickered as they both lost thier cool as they tried explaining that it was a accident and that NOTHING indecent happen for the next five minutes.

"But why are you telling me all this, you just said that only the masters of Fairy tail are privileged to know about and you could have left out that part so why tell me?" Natsu asked generally curious as they could have left out that part since it didn't seem important.

"Well Natsu there are two reasons why we disclosed this secret to you. The first being that the only reason why the master are only allowed this knowledge is because that Fairy heart is almost a unlimited source of magic power, in fact if you hooked it up to etherion then it could fire off a constant attack for 100 years before the magic circles themselves making up etherion itself would be worn out so you can see why the number of people that know about must be kept at a minimum. I chose you since I know in my heart that you will be Precht(Hades) and Makarov before you guard this secret with your life." Mavis said to half answer his question as he thought about this new development that sent a chill down his back because of the sheer power that is Fairy Heart.

"And the other reason that we are telling you this is because if you accept this task we will give a shard of fairy heart, it wont be as strong as the actual thing but it will help you greatly on the task." Zeref finished as Mavis handed him piece of Fairy Heart which resembled a glowing purple crystal shaped like a diamond which gave off a warm, comfortable and powerful aura and going by Natsu shocked expression he was very surprised that they were giving him something that could theoretically destroyed the world with his track record with 'Holding back' and 'Easing off the accelerator' being none existent but decided surprisely to hear what the job was before accepting it.

"Umm Master Mavis and big bro Zeref what is the mission you were talking about ?'

"Please, just call me Mavis and the mission is simple really, we are going to send you back seven years to Galuna island with all the knowledge and power you have attained so you could train to became stronger and protect the people you care for and grant Zeref his ultimate wish by ending him." said Mavis with little smile on her face.

"Get out of here you can actually do that?" Asked Natsu with almost jumping from the chair

"Yes we have enough power left to send you in the past, but it will take alot of me so for a while I won't be at your side in a sense." Mavis explained as she giggled at his excitement.

"Wait, won't the future change if I do stuff differently, in all the stories and books Levy has bad stuff happens when you mess timewire?" said Natsu worried that is will only make things worse.

"It called the time line and we have thought about this already and have made some counter measures to ensure the effect on the time line is kept at a minimum. I also called in some favors so you won't be alone "said Zeref looking for the dragon slayer's reaction but he was surprised to see his face, he was grinning.

" I but if this is what is necessary to protect the people I love then I'll do it." Said the pinkette with a smile on his face.

"So you accept the task?" Zeref asked him

"Of course I do I get to make sure friends and family never have to suffer like that again.' Natsu said still grinning like a fool.

At this comment Mavis gave a warm smile at his conviction and overall kind-heartedness, its no wonder she never figured out he was a demon sooner. She thought to herself that he is acting like a child but maybe this is one of the things that makes him so strong. So Zeref and Mavis begun to chant to spell as eight magic circles of different colors and sizes appeared above Natsu.

"Oh the heavenly gods above and the powerful dragons of this world I call you. Grant this child of your a path to the past so he may write our wrong and save this world that you gave your life protecting" They both begun in oddly deep voices

Forbidden Black Magic: Eight layered magic circle: Ultimate Time Rave!

As the spell was casted Natsu body begun to repair itself and fade into golden dust as he knew he's mission had begun. "Natsu would you give your life if you were ordered or if it was the only way to save your friends?" Zeref asked him

"No for the one of the worst things you could do. You don't die for your friends and loved ones, you live for them and pushed though any challenge you face to see another sunrise and sunset." Natsu answered honestly with a serious expression.

"Glad to hear that Natsu. And to answer your first question, even if all your friends are gone, you must continue to fight in their memory so you can live for them and make new friends." Mavis said as his remembered he said to himself that he'll ask her when he mets her in her in heaven and grew a small smile and before he disappeared into the past he said one thing to them.

"Yes you do since that what they would what of you, thank you everything but I won't kill you brother, I'll find a way to save you even if it kills me. By the way I may be leaving you too alone but I don't need any nieces and nephews yet so control yourselfs alright." was the only thing he said he vanish leaving both behind as blushing mess saying incurrent words in losing battle to defend themselves.

"He does know that's impossible right Mavis?" Zeref asked as he turn to see her giggling a bit at him.

"Yes but when as that ever stop him. He did came back from the dead after all." She said though her giggling.

"I suppose that is true Mavis, I just hope he wont be disappointed when he finds it can't be done." He answered with a sad smile.

"You never know Zeref-chan he might just surprise you just like he does everyone else." She responded by now full out laughing at the blushing mess that was the black immortal and understand why Natsu and Happy do it so often, it fun

9th July x784 Galuna Island

Natsu had closed his eyes when the light got really bright as he felt a strange sensation go up and down his body. When the sensation stopped, he began opening his eyes. When he opened them fully, he saw that he was in a cave of sorts. He blinked a few times to make sure his eyes weren't fooling him. They weren't. He sat up and looked around and he figured out he was on Galuna and the only time he went there was seven years ago. All of a sudden Zalty walked up to him and Natsu by instinct alone pushed himself back a couple meters and got into a fighting stance as he knows who he is up against.

"Calm down Natsu, I'm your ally in all this mess." Zalty said as he stopped his approach at around 8 meters from him.

"Liar you old man, you just want to trick me into letting my guard down and WHAM you knock me out." Natsu said as he readied his magic.

"Well maybe this will convince you that Im nt your enemy as of this moment." Zalty said as he took off his mask revealing a very sinister looking masculine face, but, shortly after taking off the mask, the figure was covered in a glow before it faded, revealing Ultear in a short, white kimono.

"Ultear want are you talking about here?" Natsu asked dropping his stance and now very confused by all this.

"Zeref thought it best if he sent me all my memories from the future so I can help you in your mission seeing how you can't really tell your usual allies about all this without risking the mission." Ultear explained as she moved closer to him till she was right in front of him.

"Well that actually pretty smart of him actually and I can see how it would be bad if I tell anyone cause they will try to change things that should happen that they don't want to." He responded adopting a thinking look on his fave that looked so out of place there which got Ultear to giggle at him.

"What?"

"Nothing it you should at leas try to act natural or someone will suspect." She said.

"Yeah I know, but it is weird… I mean, being back and all. It is like… I dunno getting a new book but you're the author so you already now the ending but trying act surprised by the ending." Said Natsu, as he scrunched up his face in thought.

"Really? You read books well that's news to me." Mocked Ultear before laughing softly.

'Hey! What are you implying here you crossdresser?' Asked Natsu in annoyance.

'Well I don't know if you noticed, but many of your peers, and enemies for that matter, don't think too highly of your intellectual capabilities.' Commented Ultear who now wasn't laughing after that cross dresser comment.

'Did you ever think that was by design?' Replied Natsu calmly, causing Ultear to pause.

'Wait, you mean, you act dumb on purpose?' Asked Ultear shocked.

'Well yeah, I will admit at first it was sheer stupidity but after my first mouth a Fairy tail I notice people tend to dropped their guard around me like when they do with Cana when they think she's too hammered to even hear them since they think that I won't remember or won't understand what they were talking about so I secretly took lessons with a local teacher and pretty soon I knew almost everything happening in the guild. I mean people drop their guard and talk a lot more… a lot.' Explained Natsu thoughtfully. Ultear's jaw dropped, her previous views and beliefs a about the dragon slayer in front of her had been smashed to pieces. She had known Natsu had somewhat of a knack for fighting, after all, he was able to beat her disguise of "Zalty" once before, but that was where it stopped in Ultear's mind. But for him to have above average intelligence was a shock to her.

'Not so smug anymore huh?' Said Natsu with a laugh, enjoying how Ultear was gaping at him, eyes widened and jaw dropped in shock.

After a moment Ultear blinked and promptly closed her mouth, before a smile spread across beautiful visage.

'Well this is an unexpected surprise, but I must say, this is rather fortunate. Since you aren't only the lovable idiot with a heart of gold that you pretend to be, we just might be able to plan for what will come in the future.' Ultear explained thoughtfully.

"Well that piece of information aside, we are in very difficult spot right now since this spell has never been used before or has and we just don't know about it so anything and everything cam happen right now." Explained Ultear.

'So… does that mean it is possible that someone, aside from the two of us, will remember what has happened… err will happen?' Asked Natsu quizzically.

'It seems likely, but the group of people who may remember is limited.' Answered Ultear eyes who looked at the ceiling like I would grant her an answer.

'Well you and I remember and we both use lost magic, do you think that might be it?' Suggested Natsu helpfully.

"Quite possibly but there no way to make sure seeing how we are the only two on the island who can practice it." She said as she rubbed her right temple at help with her headache.

Well we could wait till this is all over because I doubt Gajeel will tell me anything we Phantom attacks but you could watch the others seven kind actions and see if they do anything different. Especially Zancrow from my impression of him he's bond to slip up." Natsu suggested after je thought about it for a while.

"Well that could actually work seeing how he is like you and prone to do things that he's emotions dictate so he'll probably try and get Hades to allow him permission to kill you before tenrou if he hasn't already." Ultear said she she thought that the idea held water.

"Great that will work just fine then." Natsu said before he moved to capture her in a giant bear hug.

"I'm just so happy that you are alive my mate, I didn't know what do you when I lost you." Natsu said tearing up a little as he rested his head in the crook of her neck. She realized what he was talking about almost instantly but instead of apologizing for it she hugged him back.

"Don't worry my Dragon, I'm not going anywhere. I still need to watch over your dumb as shit ass remember?" She asked teasing him as she drew circles on his back.

"I guess you right but I got to do something first." He said.

"You better not better not-!" Ultear begun to moved away from him but it was too late as he already sank his enlarged fangs into her jugular and was drinking her blood and magic as well as giving her his own. When he withdrew his flags from the bite wound after a few moments of pleasure for her since that part like she had a orgasm, it healed almost instantly but left a surprise for later.

Said Natsu, as he joyfully lifted Ultear in the air and swung her slightly.

"Put me down please." Ultear requested bluntly.

"Huh why?" Queried Natsu.

"Well I suppose you don't have to… but I didn't know you were this forward Natsu, already motor-boating me and lifting me into the air causing my dress to ride up, you're just a sneaky pervert aren't you." Teased Ultear with a smirk.

"Hey I'm not a pervert, and what about you transforming cross dresser, I bet you do that just so you can peek at yourself." Retorted Natsu slightly flustered.

"Oh, are you jealous Natsu, do you want me to peek only at you?" Cooed Ultear.

Natsu was saved from responding when a deafening roar echoed throughout the temple.

"Deliora." Muttered Natsu, as he put Ultear down, now adopting a serious expression.

"I guess you should go, after all Deliora is going to fall now and then you need to go and help the villagers remember that they are demons and I need to go fix the village." Said Ultear thoughtfully.

"Alright see you later then."Natsu said as he run off.

[LINE BREAK]

Natsu ran towards the sound of the demonic roar, reaching it in no time at all. Taking a quick moment to observe his surroundings, Natsu saw a downed Lyon and a heavily injured Gray.

"Natsu what are you doing here? Get away!" Shouted a panicked Gray, as he held his left arm crossed over his right, preparing to use Iced Shell.

"No you are injured, I'll take care of Deliora. I stopped you before because I didn't want you to die, or did my words not reach you." Said Natsu firmly, as he walked over to Gray.

"Don't be an idiot, you can't beat Deliora; no one can!" Shouted Gray in annoyance.

The large, demonic figure that was currently breaking through the last vestiges of ice still holding its feet to the ground, roared in rage. It bared its large pointed teeth as it roared again, its dark hollow eyes reflecting a pool of eternal darkness.

"Trust me Gray, you said your master sealed Deliora ten years ago right?" Asked Natsu calmly, as he stared down the demon, unsure why he was getting a strange feeling as he looked upon its demonic form.

"Yeah, what's your point?" Asked Gray angrily.

"Quiet… both of you… I'll defeat Deliora." Groaned a heavily injured Lyon, currently crawling towards Deliora.

"My point is a simple one really, in fact I'm surprised that you two didnt figure it out first." Said Natsu plainly, as he ignored the pathetic form of the crawling Ice wizard.

"What do you mean?" Questioned Gray in sheer anger at the flame wizard right now. Deliora, having finally freed itself from the ice, brought a hulking fist down upon the three mages in front of it.

"My point, is even if Deliora is a demon, demons need to eat and he hasn't for ten good years so he's already died to why don't you just return to Hell you ugly piece of shit your hurting my eyes."Said Natsu, as he turned to look at the demon for the last part of his sentence as he launched a flame infused fist against the hulking demonic arm headed towards him.

Gray and Lyon gaped in shock when they saw Deliora's arm crumble upon impact, shortly after which, the rest of Deliora crumbled away into nothingness.

'I'll seal your darkness.'Gray recalled Ur's last words to him and started to weep.

"Thank you so much, Ur." Muttered Gray, as he cried bittersweet tears of joy.

Lyon lowered his head, as he finally understood the situation.

"Everything, my goals, my ambitions, it was all pointless. I'm sorry Ur." Thought Lyon in sadness, realising that he had killed his master for no reason.

While the two pupils of Ur lost themselves in their own thoughts, Natsu meanwhile, was staring at his fist in confusion.

"What was that… this feeling, it felt… strange?" Thought Natsu in surprise.

When he made contact with Deliora he felt something odd, almost a sense of familiarity but then it hit him like Igneel's tail. It felt familiar because he is a demon as well so in a way they were related even if he hated that fact it was true After a few minutes, Natsu shook his head and remembered that they still had to go and free the villagers from the effects of Moon Drip. Natsu passively observed everything he knew would happen and followed everyone as they walked back to the village and waited until Erza would call on his assistance to boost the power of her throw.

"Natsu, come, we are going to destroy the moon now." Ordered Erza.

"Right." Said Natsu, finally bringing his attention back to the situation at hand. Erza took notice of Natsu's less than enthusiastic behavior but didn't comment on it as they had more important things to deal with. The duo climbed up a small viewing platform while Erza had requipped into her Giant's Armour.

"Ready Natsu?"Asked Erza, as she cocked her fist holding her gigantic spear back.

"Ready." Intoned Natsu.

"Now!"Shouted Erza, before she made to throw her weapon, just as Natsu slammed his fist into the bottom of the weapon. The spear soared into the sky, cutting through the air easily, a silver sheen covered the blade as it picked up speed and approached the moon. The villagers looked on hopefully, while Lucy and Gray looked on in disbelief, which changed to shock once they saw the spear pierce the moon and cause cracks to spread along it.

The villagers all cheered in joy believing the moon was destroyed, while Lucy, Gray and Happy all stared on in astonishment, before the purple moon cracked and shattered… revealing a white moon.

'What? The moon didn't break but the sky did?' Questioned Lucy in surprise.

Natsu chuckled to himself as he sat down on a nearby boulder as Erza explained how the Moon Drip caused a solid cloud of purple magic to come into existence over the island and mess with the memories of its demonic inhabitants. This was further punctuated when Bobo, the sailor who brought them to the island, now revealed to be the village chief's son, appeared and explained how he received his memories back, whereas everyone else still thought they were human.

The demons cheered happily and embraced their once thought to be deceased companion and celebrated. A feast was held shortly after, with lots of food. but a familiar scent caused him eagerly leave the public feast for a more private one.

"Hey Erza, I'm going to walk around for a bit, I'll be back after a while, is the alright with you?" Said Natsu.

Erza stared at Natsu for a moment before nodding. "Ok, but be back here in no more than an hour, or I will see to it your punishment is doubled.' Threatened Erza with a menacing sure surrounding her scaring some of the locals enough to slowly back away from her.

"I have every attention of living to surpass gramps so I'll be sure to be back before then Erza." Said Natsu while doing a mocking bow of respect at her but before she could respond to it he run off to avoid her wrathful fury.

"Hey, what's the matter with flame brain, he didn't even react to Erza's threat and mock her a bit, that's not like him at all?" Muttered Gray to Lucy and a nearby Happy, who was happily enjoying a fish.

"I know, so far from what I've seen, every time Erza even appears a bit upset you and Natsu do everything to avoid her angrier moments." Agreed Lucy.

"Maybe he just wanted to go find some fish for himself." Added Happy thoughtfully as if everyone was him and had his way of thinking.

"Not everyone is always thinking about fish." Commented Lucy, with a sweat drop at the easily distracted flying cat.

Erza heard everything that the trio was saying and had to wonder what was causing Natsu to act so odd. "Natsu…" Thought Erza, slightly worried at what could possibly have changed the happy-go-lucky Dragon Slayer.

Natsu walked along the beach as the dark blue waves lightly lapped at the shore, coming close to his sandaled feet, but never reaching them. Eventually, the scent began to grow stronger, as he stepped into the fairly large cave along the beach, the inside was pretty smooth most probably from night tide or something and there was a large pond with a couple of fish swimming around in it. The light from the entrance gave the cave a amazing blue glow. The cave however was currently holding only one other person.

"I have to say, that nose of yours is something to have but it must suck around things that don't exactly have a lavender scent to them." Remarked Ultear calmly, as she came out from behind a boulder and sat down down in front of the pin gazing into the aqua blue liquid.

"Well a Dragon Slayer does gain the senses of a dragon which does came in handy at times but you are right about it being a pain around smelly things." Commented Natsu cheerfully as he sat down next to her and snaked his left arm around her waist to pull her closer.

" Although we are nor going to not listening to Zeref's advice and not mess with the timeline, I don't think we should leave things as they are either.' Said Natsu getting Ultear to glaze into his eyes looking for a answers.

"What do you mean?" Questioned Ultear curiously.

'Tenrou Island.' Stated Natsu sourly as the memory of his defeat to a dragon still hurt his pride greatly even though it would have been impossible at the time to even scatch him.

"Hmm, I suppose you being sealed for seven years was a great hindrance to your growth, lucky for you my dragon, I was around to unlock your Second Origin for you." Said Ultear with a coy smile, which was wiped off her face when Natsu patted her on the head like a child,with a massive grin on his face.

'Yep, you were such a good power booster weren't you?' Mocked Natsu as he enjoyed seeing her trying and failing at keeping her cool.

"I'm going to enjoy watching you writhe in agony when I get to unlock your Second Origin a second time." Ultear stated with a sadistic smile,that send a chill down his spine and reminded him she didn't became the leader of the seven kin of purgatory for nothing, she earned it.

"Will then, do your worst, it will be easy to handle this time now that I am expecting it.' Said Natsu nonchalantly but grew a blush when she learned into his face leaving mere inches in-between them.

"So if you don't expect something it will still affect you then hmm?" Queried Ultear, as she leaned closer towards Natsu to him relishing in the fact he still blushed when she did simple things like thing, it made him even cuter in her opinion.

Natsu started to inwardly panic, before a quick and simple solution came to mind. He stood up quickly and when she did as well he pushed her into the water and before she got even react to this he jumped in as well and sat her down on his lap as he was now sitting Indian style in the water. "If you couldn't dry off my clothes after this, I would so kill you right now, you know how much this kimono costs?" She asked facing her head to face him even though he was grinning at her.

"Don't worry my love I could always buy so something better since you love new clothing but admit it you like it when we do things like this or when I do this my crimson eyes time witch." He said as he groped her left breast though her wet dress elighting a squeal of delight and surprise from the time wizard.

"Maybe I do like it what of it but the question is: What are you going to do about it?" She asked him as she wiggled her bottom on his growing boner.

"As much as I want to rake your virginity in a cave again and make you moan like your possessed. We have to end this here, I can smell Icicle on his way here looking for me and no one but me get to see you naked." He said with a deep and menacing voice when he spoke of Gray peeking while getting out of the water and helping her out before and drying both of them.

"Very well my dragon, we'll meet outside magnolia after you guys discover what Phantom did to your guildhall and then you can 're-introduce' me to the pleasure of the flesh?" She asked as she begun to walks away though the cave other entrance but was stopped by Natsu as he hugged her from behind, turned her head to her left, French kissed her for a while while one hand groped her boob again while the other had two fingers rubbing her nether regions before stopping all this and moved in front of her enjoying how hot and bothered she looked.

"Does that answer your question my darling and if not not then just you wait till I fuck you into the ground." He said as she started to move away again before they both gave in into thier more 'loving' instincts.

'Natsu! Where the hell are you flame-brain?' Shouted an irritable Gray from just outside the cave.

Natsu mentally growled in frustration at Gray's arrival and unknowingly ruining his time with her, he promised himself that he will give him a solidleft for that and right hook for the comment on his brain.

"Oh and one more thing Natsu to get you back for leaving in such a state." Said Ultear, getting the Dragon Slayer to turn his head back to the time mage. Ultear kissed Natsu on his cheek, causing a blush to spread across his face again at the intimate gesture.

"See you soon my sweet." Said Ultear emphasizing the 'my sweet' part to creepiness levels of Juvia in 'Gray-sama' mode, before disappearing deeper into the forest.

"Hey flame-brain what are you doing here..." Ranted Gray, before suddenly becoming slightly subdued.

"What, what do you want droopy-eyes, it hasn't been an hour yet?" Asked Natsu, before seeing Gray point at Natsu's trousers and avert his gaze with a slight cough.

Natsu looked down and his eye started to twitch uncontrollably annoyance.

"We will never mention this to anyone, or Ill show everyone your not so secret mini horse collection get me?" Growled Natsu with Gray, surprisingly nodding his head in agreement with him.

'Anyway *cough* Erza said to come back now, or she will double her punishment for you.' Said Gray awkwardly, before walking away.

"Damn that woman, I'll just have to get her back for this then." Muttered Natsu under his breath, somehow knowing that Ultear was going to be a pain to deal with from here on out.

"Although did she really need to make it so that Gray had to see something like that?" Thought Natsu in annoyance and swore for a moment that he heard mocking laughter from the forest.
