Missing Flame

{5} Day 2- Adversary

Natsu P.O.V

I woke up in the woods. "Ug...what happened?" I say getting up. I look at the grass around me, it was burnt. "Ah!" I say, jumping out of the dead grass. I look around. Where am I?

'Natsu Dragneel.'

"Who's there!" I look around. The voice came off from the right.

'Why'd you destroy the Blue Pegasus guild?'

"What! I didn't do that!" I yelled.

'Yes. You did. Every innocent life in that guild is gone.'

The voice seemed amused. "Why would I do something like that!?" I yelled. A male figure came out of the dark trees, he had a long black beard, long hair, red eyes, and a dark red robe. "Who are you?" I asked.

'I am Lucifer Moerai.'

"And, why am I important to you?"

'You have a certain magic that I have killed for.'

I gulped, sweat rolling down my face. "So, are you going to kill me?"

'No.'

I sigh in relief. "So what do you want?"

'For you to be my disciple of course!'

"Will you help me get my memories back?"

'Yes. But first you need to control that power, we don't want the same thing to happen to those weaklings.'

"And what power do I exactly have?"

'You have an ancient magic.'

"What's it called?" I say, a little nervous. This guy puts me on edge.

'Dragon Slayers Death Flame.'

Makarov P.O.V

"Listen up you brats!" I yelled, so they could get their attention on me. They all look up. "The rumors are true, Natsu Dragneel is still alive!" Everyone smiles. They start cheering. "That's not all!" They get silent again. "He has lost his memory to a dark wizard, and Levy is searching up who at this moment." Everyone stars speaking in silent whispers. "We have also claimed that a darkness is starting to swallow Natsu whole. We must search for him! I will have groups to find him. The first group will be Erza, Gray, Lucy, and Juvia. The second group will be Mira, Cana, Wendy, and Elfman. The third group will be Laxus, Evergreen, Bixlow, and Freed. The final group will be Gildarts, Lisanna, Gajeel, and Levy. Now go on you brats! Each group will have a flare, and a communication lacrima!" The groups leave the guild hall and I sigh.

I'm afraid Igneel's prediction might just happen. It must not happen. Fairy Tail will stop anyone who gets in our way of getting Natsu back.

Lucy P.O.V

Juvia, Gray, Erza, Happy, and I decide to go into the forest. We were the only group that didn't have a dragon slayer in it, so that's where we decide to go. We see a clearing and two figures talking to eachother in the distance. We get in the conversation and turn on the communication lacrima.

"What's a Dragon slayers Death Flame?"

I have to cover my hand to stop myself from gasping. I read that in a book about dragons once.

Death Flame can harm anything by a single touch, your lucky to be alive when the user of the Death Flame attacks you, no one has ever survived a full attack of the Death Flame, it's like Hell itself is dragging you down. The only person who has ever used Death Flame has used it to kill thousands and thousands of dragons, his name was Acnologia. The only way to survive the Death Flame is...don't survive. The only person to have ever survived Death Flame was-

The page was ripped out on that part. If Natsu could use Death Flame, that means...

'You, Natsu Dragneel, are the only human being to survive Death Flame, though, your not that human anyway.'

I hear someone step back, Erza, Gray, and Juvia are shocked to. What did he mean...not that human? Tears form at the corners of my eyes, Natsu could kill us all in an instant. All those Adventures. All those Journeys. The friendships we made. Were they all just a lie?

Someone puts an arm around my shoulder. Its Gray. "The adventures aren't lies Lucy," he says softly, "Well get him back. I promise." Juvia didn't look happy about Gray doing that, but I didn't care. How many times have I heard that word?

"I promise Luce!"

"Lucy, I promise well get out of here alive!"

"We'll be fine Luce! I promise!"

"Luce, I promise."

"I promise."

We tune in back on the conversation.

"But, if I join you, what about Fairy Tail? I promised I would visit them this week." He says.

He still cares about Fairy Tail? Even if he lost his memories? Natsu...He made another promise. Happy tears slide down my cheeks

'You don't need those weaklings at your side, imagine the power you'll have with me.'

The man holds out his hand. Natsu hesitates. "I don't know..Lucifer..was it? Could I have time to think about it?" The man, apparently called Lucifer, scoffs.

'I don't understand why someone like you, so filled with talent, would hesitate at my offer, but...because you remind me of someone. I shall give you three days, until then. Natsu Dragneel.'

The man bows and disappears. I notice tears running down Natsu's eyes. No time for stealth, I run toward him. And hug him. "Natsu..shhh...what's wrong? It's alright...I'm your friend...it's fine...please..what's wrong?" I sooth him. He looks at me in the eyes, he says four words that made me widen my eyes in fear.

"I....I...I destroyed....no...I killed....Blue...Pegasus."
