Lesson Number 1: Counting To Twenty

.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE AREN'T TRAINING TODAY?!"

The young dragon's roar echoed through the trees and sent birds soaring into the sky. Lucy stood up straight and tall, having a grand big smile on her face as she twirled a long pointy stick in her hand. Igneel shook his head at his son and sighed, he hoped Lucy would be able to teach this boy quick. Igneel was growing rather impatient with his stupidity.

"Twice a week son, she will teach you. Didn't I explain this to you yesterday?" Igneel asked.

"I thought you were kidding!" Natsu yelled.

Lucy slapped her stick onto the palm of her hand, making the two arguing males stop and look over at her.

"Starting today, every time you're in my class you shall call me Ms. Lucy. Understood?" Lucy asked.

Natsu glared at the girl standing in front of him. Here he thought she was nice and interesting, but no. Turns out he had her pegged out all wrong. Natsu crossed his arms over his chest stubbornly and turned his head.

"No! I want to train, not leaaarn," the boy responded.

"When you train what do you think you're doing? Learning new moves! So either way you're learning Natsu." Lucy lectured pointing her stick at him.

"Natsu, you will listen to your teacher or I'll make it three times a week and won't train you until you do." Igneel threatened.

"But, ah, uh, oh, ah..." Natsu felt the need to rip out his hair.

He stomped his way over to Lucy and kicked a tree, making it fall over. He sat down on the now tree stump and glared furiously at Lucy, trying to light her on fire with his mind. Natsu was sure if he lit her on fire the old fashion way Igneel would kill him, but this way there was no evidence that said Natsu did it.

"Hurry up Lucy, I don't have all day." Natsu growled.

"Actually you do, and it's Ms. Lucy! Say it right or else!" Lucy said.

Natsu's eyes widened in amusement, "or else what?" He asked.

Lucy was hoping he would say that; she walked right up to him and smacked him with her stick. It was like a whip, Natsu jumped up and off his stump.

"Ow! Igneel! Did you see that?!" Natsu tattled.

Igneel turned his head and started whistling as he watched the birds fly. Lucy giggled then turned over to Natsu again, smacking her stick against the palm of her hand.

"My name?" Lucy asked.

... Natsu exhaled fire through his nose. "Ms. Luuuu-cy."

Lucy smiled brightly at him, "very good! Today we'll just start with the basics, I'll even let you decide on what first. Alphabet or numbers?" Lucy asked.

Natsu blinked at her.

"Alpha-what? And nums-who?" He repeated.

Lucy stared dumbfounded at her student then turned over to her Father.
