Dragon Tears - NaLu Fanfiction Part 5

Natsu took one look behind him, to look at his wounded friends and spoke: “I’ll come back with a team to help you guys get back to the guild.” Grey grinned “Don’t forget it, flam-brain” “I won’t, I promise that I will come back as soon as possible, popsicle” Natsu smiled and turned back to the clouds with a worried look on his face. “Please be careful, Natsu-nii” Wendy softly spoke, the pink haired young man nodded and was stud ready to fly. Lucy grabbed with her hand to Natsu’s scarf that was still around her neck, at that moment she thought of something. “Natsu! My keys! Damn they must be somewhere around the castle” she spoke with big eyes and a shocked face, Natsu nodded and put up a sprint.

He ran in the direction of the castle “Lucy?” “Yeah, Natsu?” Lucy looked up “I never flown, so I don’t really know how to fly…” “WHAT?!” Lucy screamed, she was too tired to smack him in the face(Lucky Natsu xD). Natsu looked down at this partner, grinned and spoke “Shh… Please just trust me.” Lucy looked up and her shocked and scared face got preplaced by a sweet smile “alright then.”

The dragon boy took a big step and jumped into the air with full force, he opened his wings and floated through the sky. He wasn’t high and he noticed that Lucy was light as a fetter, of course, he is in his half dragon form but still she was almost too light to notice. The blond hide herself in his scarf and he looked back in front of him where he saw the fields full of ashes. “Oh yeah, I needed to find your ke-“ Natsu couldn’t finish his sentence because a thunder right in front him. Lucy squalled ‘cause of it and hid herself in his scarf. “Relax, Lucy” Natsu spoke softly, the blond looked up with his scarf a bit above her pale chin. “Laxus gave me a little present when we fought Hades” Natsu had a small smile on his face, but the blond haired mage didn’t get it.

“Present?” She asked him with a questioned look. Natsu found flying easier than he thought it would be, he easily got the hang on it. “You see the bright yellow tips o my wings?” The dragon mage asked, the blond just nodded “I can control lighting with it, I’m more than just a fire dragon” he explained, Lucy didn’t get if fully but she didn’t care, she knew she was safe in Natsu’s strong scaled arms.

The other Fairy Tail comrades were sitting around a camp fire that Natsu made. Grey looked next him were Wendy sat, she was shaking. The ice mage was used to the cold so he went a little closer to her, he gave her his jacket and he hugged her. He said something what no one ever expected from him to say: “Natsu-nii, will be back soon” he patted her head. Everyone was surprised even Wendy, after the shock she sweetly smiled and softly spoke “I guess you’re right, Grey-nii.” The bluenette giggled and Grey chuckled with her. Erza smiled at them, “even if Natsu goes on rampage  the guild is getting closer and kinder.” She looked next to her and she saw something even more sweet. “Grey! Wendy!” she loudly whispered, they looked at her and she pointed next to her. Grey and Wendy smiled at the scene next to Erza. Charla had fallen in sleep on Happy’s belly and Happy himself had fallen alsleep right after that. “aww… How cute, Charla has finally given in to Happy’s charms” Wendy giggled and the other awake mages laughed with her, of course not to loud ‘cause they didn’t want to wake the cute couple.

Natsu was flying over the black ground full of ashes, and he finally reached the castle… Only I don’t think you can call it a castle now it’s all destroyed and burned. Something with a golden and silver color was sparkling in his dragon eyes. “Luce, your keys!” The blond turned her head to look at the place where his finger was pointing to, and yes, there they were, between rocked, ash, dust and thrash there were her keys. You only saw a small part of the bundle but the lighting made the golden and silver keys light up, just enough for a human eye to see, Natsu saw it easy his eyes were from a dragon and you know the story that the collect valuable stuff like: money, crowns and diamond. And you need a good eye for the black dungeons were people hide them.

The dragon boy landed carefully and the blond kind of jumped out of his arms. She struggled her way through the trash, she needed her keys back, but then she was blocked by a large stone block. The block lays on the belt of the keys. Lucy saw that is was burned. “Maybe that is why they fell of…” She thought will trying to get the block of, but she had not enough power in her arms to lift the heavy rock. She looked down at the block, at that moment a pretty big dark red scaled hand grabbed the block at the broken side of it and lifted it with ease. Lucy looked up and she looked right in the onyx eyes of her teammate Natsu. With a sweet smile to him she said ‘Thank you.’ She looked down, grabbed her keys and hugged them. She tried to stand up but her legs staid on their spot.

The fire mage saw this and threw the stone block like a Frisbee away. He walked towards the blond and held his hand in front of her. She looked up a bit sadly with a little smile, she took his hand, but when their hands connected she fell to her side. Natsu grabbed her as fast as he could to save her from falling on the hard and still dry ground. He picked her up in bridal style and chuckled a bit and whispered: “Not even enough energy to keep your balance, why didn’t you ask me to pick them up for you? Weirdo” She looked a bit irritated by his nickname but then she smiled and spoke: “because I don’t want a dragon to steal my treasures.” And then she fell asleep.
Natsu looked at his partner and softly spoke: “I don’t need treasures when I already have a princess.” He laid her keys on her belly and laid her hand there to secure them. He looked back at her face, it got more pale then it already was. “Damn! You need a doctor!” He scolded inside and he was ready to go up into the dark sky’s again.

“Please, Lucy keep yourself together , don’t give in yet!” Our young pink haired dragon mage prayed.
