Disclaimers: I do not own Fairy Tail

A/N: So I decided to turn this into a full story though I had to move "Teenage Father of Fairy Tail" to Romeo's Life to do so.

Check out my other stories if you have a chance like: Fiery Hurricane of Love, Right Claw of the Dragon King, The Wild Master, and A Child of Fire and Brimstone.

Chapter 1

Kasai

X91

Unknown Location In the Far East of Earthland

The man was wearing nothing more than rags for clothes when he stumbles into the cave in the middle of the forest during the dead of night. His ribs could be seen through his skin indicating that he hasn't eaten a decent meal in days if not weeks, nonetheless he presses forward into the depths.

"It has to be here! It has to be!", he screams into the darkness as he kept his hands on the wall to get through the pitch black, "I have sacrificed so much to get this far!"

"That you have, mortal!", a booming voice echoes throughout the cave, nearly giving the man a heart attack as the sound fills his head, "Through treacherous mountains and dangerous forests you have traveled far in order to reach me."

Without warning, a bright light fills the cave, blinding the man who had to use his arms to shield his eyes.

"I have been watching you ever since you enter my territory, human", the voice rang out from the light, "But I am still curious as to why you came all this way."

The man threw himself onto the ground, bowing his head to the ground while doing so, "Oh great and mighty one, my family has been the lowest of mages for as long as we could remember! We seek your help in allowing us to become powerful wielders of magic!"

A laugh erupts from the light, shaking the cave in the process and forcing the man to take cover as a chunk of the ceiling came crashing down next to him.

"You mortals never cease to amaze me! You crave power but don't want to put in the hard work and necessary sacrifices in order to achieve it!" the voice states, "Many of you seek to reach beyond your status and will do anything to make it so!"

"Whatever you want from me, name it and I shall give it to you if I am able!", the man begs.

The laughter subsides and the shaking stops as the light went out for a moment and the voice went quiet. The eerie silence and darkness stretch for so long that the man was almost certain that the entity was no longer there. Just when all seemed lost, the voice and the light rush once more into the interior of the cave.

"Hear me and hear me well, mortal! I shall give your race a moment of kindness and grant you your wish if only to amuse myself!"

"Oh, thank you. Thank you, most benevolent one!", the man cried only to hear a dark chuckle come forth from the light.

"Oh, you pathetic mortal. Did you forget already that you said that I could have whatever I want from you."

The man feels a cold chill travel down his back, "W-what is it that you ask?"

….

….

"What are you willing to sacrifice for a small portion of my power?"

X791

Magnolia

Loud, rowdy, and rambunctious.

Those were the words one would use to describe the situation inside of the second Fairy Tail guild hall at the moment as the guild was into its second day of celebration of the Tenrou's group return. Natsu and Gray were brawling with Max and Nab. Wendy, Gray, Gajeel, and Juvia were getting their second painting done by Reedus while Cana was over at the tavern having a drinking contest with Wakaba, Master Makarov, and Macao. Meanwhile, Lucy was merely sitting at a table by herself watching it all as she sighs happily. Despite the fact she had to stay over at Alzack and Bisca last night due to her rent piling up over seven years she was nonetheless joyful about returning home.

"It's like we never left", she says before seeing someone sit down next to her. She turns and is greeted by the sight of a purple-haired young boy sitting right next to her, looking uncomfortable for some reason as he fidgets in his seat and initially refusing to my eye contact with her.

"Hey...", as she tries to remember his name, searching through her memories as best she could while also wondering where the boy appeared from for she has been sitting across from the front door the whole time along with the fact that she didn't see him yesterday either.

"Romeo", the boy said, "Macao's son."

Lucy snaps her fingers as she remembers, "That's right, you were the one that punched Master Makarov when he refuses to go looking for your father when he went missing."

"Wow, I mean I have done other things, but okay", Romeo grumbles under his breath before looking at Lucy, "Are you busy right now? I kind of need your help with something."

Lucy leans back, eyeing the boy with a quizzical stare, "Me?", she says before throwing a look over at Natsu just as he received a punch from Gray and goes flying across the room, "You sure you don't want Natsu's help?", she asks, now remembering that Romeo was the dragon-slayer's biggest fan seven years ago.

Romeo looks down at the ground and lets out a sigh and for the first time, Lucy notices the bags underneath his eyes as if he hasn't gotten a good night's sleep in awhile.

"What's wrong with him?", she thought before her Romeo's voice snap her out of it.

"As much as I would love to see Natsu again after him being gone for so long, I doubt he can help me. I feel like you're the only one who can", he says.

Lucy looks back and forth between Romeo and Natsu for a moment, "What about Ezra?

"It doesn't involve swords", the boy answers.

"Gray?"

"Nor ice or stripping?"

"Wendy?"

Romeo blushes at the mention of the Sky Dragon-Slayer's name, something Lucy takes note of, but shakes his head, "No."

"Master Makarov?"

"Maybe, but I doubt it."

"Okay, your father?"

"He's the last person I want to talk to right now", Romeo says as he throws a glare over at the man in question.

Lucy was running out of people to name and she was starting to feel uncomfortable as she wonders just what Romeo wanted to talk to her about.

The boy lets out a breath, "Can you follow me outside please, Lucy?", he asks, "It would probably be for the best if I explain my problem out there", as he gets up and walks to toward the door.

Lucy watches his back for a moment before shaking her head in frustration before standing up and following after him but not before sparing a glance at the bar where surprisingly Macao was looking directly at her. Only he didn't have his usual smile on or his pervert one either if anything Lucy swore he had a look that was a mixture of shame and disappointment on his face.

"Was that directed at me? What's going on?", she wonders as she exits the building, the last sound she heard before closing the door being Natsu's maniacal laughter as he pounces on Elfman.

Meanwhile, Levy, Jet, and Droy were catching up on old times with the two guys showering the girl with praise and admiration.

"Levy, it's so good to have you back! The guild is now a thousand times better now that you have graced it with your presence once more!", Droy cries out.

"Ah, thank you, Droy! It's great to see my friends again", Levy replies before noticing Jet watching Lucy and some random kid leave through the front door, "Something wrong, Jet?"

"Huh?", Jet says as he turns to face her, "Did you say something, Levy?"

"Is something wrong?", she repeated, "You were watching Lucy and that boy leave the building."

Jet scratches the back of his head, "Yeah, sorry about that. It's just a little weird."

Levy tilts her head, "What is?"

"Well, you see that was Romeo just now leaving with Lucy", he says

"That was Romeo? Macao's son?", Levy questions.

"Yeah", Jet answers.

"Wow, he's grown. But where did he come from and why wasn't he here yesterday?", Levy asks.

"Probably through the back door", Droy answers, "Where he was though is a question I don't have an answer for."

"You see two weeks ago we celebrated Romeo's thirteenth birthday but this is the first time he has been at the guild hall since that day", Jet began.

"And whenever we ask Macao what was going on, he simply stated that he's "dealing with some problems at the moment", or something along those lines", Droy quotes.

Levy raises an eyebrow at this, "You know, it is a little strange that he came in the guild hall and didn't make a beeline for Natsu."

"Right?", Droy adds, "I mean, I seem him around town now and then since his birthday, but he looks exhausted every time I try to greet him and he always made very little small talk before excusing himself like he was in a hurry for some reason."

"Eh...puberty maybe?", Levy says only to receive a shrug from her two teammates.

When Lucy got outside she spots Romeo sitting down in the middle of the clearing that was in front of the guild.

"Now, what exactly do you need to talk to me about, Romeo?", Lucy asks as she walks toward the center of the field and stops a couple of yards from him.

Romeo takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly, "I'll get straight to the point. I turned thirteen two weeks ago and since that day, my life has changed completely", as he takes another breath, "And I need your help in this matter. More so, I need your guidance. I was going to try and find someone else but then I heard that you guys were back alive from Tenrou when I got a telepathic call from Nab."

"Are you sure you don't want me to got get Natsu?", Lucy starts up again as Romeo got up and moved closer to her, "I'm one hundred percent sure that whatever is bothering you he has a better chance of helping you with it the-"

"Please don't freak out", Romeo cuts her off.

Lucy tilts her head in confusion, "Huh?", as she then sees a magic circle for a fire appear behind the boy.

"Romeo, what's going on?", Lucy asks, a little worried over the display of magic he was showing, "What's going on?", she repeats.

"It's a summoning circle for the Far East", Romeo says, prompting Lucy to take a closer look at the circle.

"It's a what?", Lucy says before a beam of elemental energy came bursting forth from the magic circle becoming a rising pillar of fiery light that stretch toward the sky. It was so bright that Lucy was forced to shield her eyes with her arms.

Slowly but surely the light started to die down and within moments it was gone.

"Romeo, what was all that? You shouldn't be doing magic so close…to…the...", she said as she began to bring her arms down only to stop upon feeling something furry and extremely warm rubbing up against her leg. She looks toward the ground to investigate and ended up screaming to the heavens upon seeing what was touching her.

"Macao, my brat, what is the matter with you?", Makarov asks as he observes one of the oldest members of the guild looking down into his mug with a depressed look on his face. The drinking contest between him, Wakaba, Master Makarov, and Cana ended in the Card Mage's victory yet again but the wizard saint had a hunch that wasn't the reason behind Macao's sadden mood.

"It's nothing...it's...", the Purple Flare mage began before sighing, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course you can", Makarov replied.

"Well...if you were keeping a secret from someone, a secret that could change their life forever, would you tell them about it?", he started.

"Why wouldn't I? I would feel like it would be my duty to tell them", Makarov answers and Macao still hung his head low.

"Of course you would, somehow even with Ivan you're still a better father than me", he grumbles causing Makarov to cock an eyebrow at him.

"Macao, what's the matter?"

The fourth guild master of Fairy Tail lets out a sigh, "Do you remember when I told you where exactly my family line originated from?"

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!", pierces the eardrums of everyone inside of the building as the doors are kicked open by Lucy who then bolts inside and hides behind a baffle Natsu.

"Hey Lucy, what's the matter?", the dragon-slayer, confuse over the girl's bizarre behavior.

The Celestial Spirit mage points a shaking finger at the door, "T-T-T-T-that!"

The whole guild turns their attention back toward the front doors where Romeo was standing with his arms across while an annoyed expression etched onto his face.

"Romeo?", Natsu says, recognizing the scent of the boy from seven years ago, "Romeo, how have you been?"

Romeo cracks a smile, "It's good to see you again, Natsu."

"Ah, don't be like that! Come over here and give me a hug! I didn't see you yesterday!", the mage says as he tries to run over to the boy only to stop when he feels a pull on his vest. He turns his head around to look down at Lucy who was still shaking with fright, "Lucy, what's wrong? It's only Romeo over there."

"I'm not scared of him! I'm scared of that!", Lucy says just as a creature appears from the side of the door and sits down next to Romeo.

It was a large four-legged dog-like animal, with just by sitting on its hindquarters alone put it a good two feet taller than Romeo and it had a pair of pointed ears and nose, and what should had been a tail was instead a long burning mass of red and orange flames dancing in the wind. Its fur was a mixture of red and orange and the heat it was emitting could be felt throughout the building. Its eyes were closed yet it felt like it wasn't hindered by this whatsoever as it looked directly into the faces of every person in the room.

"Everyone", Romeo began, "This is Kasai, a kitsune from the east."

"Hey, Short Lives! How yall doing?", the creature says in a voice that sounded like a man who has been smoking since the day he was born echo throughout the room despite the fact the creature didn't open its mouth.

"He is also the Eastern Spirit of Fire and the reason why I can no longer use any magic except summoning", Romeo finishes.

"Geez, Kit, you make it sound like I had a say in it!", Kasai nods with a smile on its lips.

A/N: You see, I always played with the concept of Romeo having completely different magic than what he has in canon, but then I wonder, "What if he was a Summoner Mage and could only do nothing but summoning?". Then I thought, "What if I mix it up with a pokemon theme?". This is now a full-on story with Lucy being his teacher because that means.

Natsu (Dragon-Slayer) + Lucy (Summoner Mage)

Wendy (Dragon-Slayer) + Romeo (Summoner Mage)

Also, Kasai means "Fire" in Japanese.

"Short Lives", is Kasai's word for mortals in general, mainly humans.
