Lesson Number 2: Learning The Alphabet

.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE'RE NOT TRAINING... AGAIN!" Young Natsu Dragneel yelled.

Lucy giggled, she rather found his temper trantrums amusing.

"You can train Natsu." Lucy said.

Natsu smiled at her then looked over at their father, "see? See! She said I could!"

"After you learn to say, read, and write the alphabet!" Lucy finished.

Igneel chuckled as Natsu fell on the floor in defeat. Wait a second, he replayed what his teacher said in his mind. Say, read, and write the alphabet. Say, read, and write. That was only three things! Natsu could count to three! He could do those things easy peasy!

"Alright! Let's get started!" Natsu cheered jumping back on his feet.

Lucy smiled at his enthusiasm then looked around for something that could be used for as a chair and a desk. When she spotted the stump Natsu sat in yesterday, she thought why not and pointed towards it.

"Sit over there Natsu, I'll be right over." Lucy said before walking over to her teaching supplies.

She hid them in some bushes, afraid that Natsu might try to and burn them so she'd have nothing to teach him, and pulled out everything she would need for today's lesson. Her Papa had done a wonderful job with getting everything she needed; Lucy pulled out a notebook, some pencils and some colorful markers. Might as well teach him colors as well, though she was sure he knew them already.

Lucy carried the things to where Natsu sat on the stumped and dropped them on the floor underneath her.

"Um... I still need to get ready so count as high as you can go." Lucy said.

Natsu nodded, figuring that if he argued with her then he would waste time meaning no training with Igneel. When Natsu had a certain motivation in sight, there was nothing he couldn't do.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven," he counted.

Lucy picked up the notebook and poured out the seven multiple colored markers. She opened the page up and proceeded to write the alphabet, capital and lowercase, then an item that started with the letter. Natsu was only able to count to twenty-two before he stopped, Lucy only got as far as J.

"Igneel, mind helping Natsu a little bit?" Lucy asked picking up the next marker.

Igneel woke up from his nap, at least trying to nap, and roared.

"Repeat after me Natsu, twenty-three fried fish!" Ingeel said.

Natsu started drooling, "twenty-three fried fish!"

"Twenty-four fried fish!"

"Twenty-four fried fish!"

"Twenty-five fried fish!"

Their counting of fried fish went all the way up to fifty until Lucy stood up from the ground. She dusted the back of her skirt off and smiled, finally finished.

"Alright, class is now in session. Thanks Papa." Lucy giggled.

"You're welcome." Ingeel yawned finally taking his nap.
