Fantasia Dance: Love Between Dragon Slayers

The Fantasia Dance

Hey everyone, sorry this took a while to get out. I wanted to have it done way earlier than this, but I also wanted to make sure it was a satisfying ending. Hopefully it is. Also, I'm just going to be upfront with you here. There is an implied sex scene in this chapter. I don't explicitly describe anything, because it's supposed to be sweet and not erotic at all. However, I do still make it very clear that that's what's going on. I don't include this stuff often, but I also don't shy away from these things and use them when I feel they fit in with the story, so yeah. So, if that bothers you then just skip past it, it's the second scene in the chapter. Anyway, enjoy!

Scales as black as the night sky. Flames hotter than the blistering sun. A sharp glare that was piercing through her very soul. She was frozen in fear at that monster's petrifying stare. She was unable to move an inch as it neared closer and closer to her.

"Wendy! Get out of the way!" Natsu cried out.

However, his words rung in her ears too late as she was already falling through the sky, plummeting to her death. The dragon set its claw down just as Wendy had crashed into the ground.

"WENDY!" Natsu ran over to her, a pale and sickly look on his face. "WENDY!" Finally, after what felt like an eternity, despite being only a couple of seconds, Natsu made it over to Wendy. He took her hand in his. "Wendy...are you okay?"

"Natsu? Is that you?" Wendy tried to move her neck to face Natsu, but a sharp pain assaulted her, rendering her unable to complete the motion. "I can't...see you..."

Those words were all it took to cause streams of tears to come rolling down Natsu's face without hesitation. "Yeah, it's me...I'm here Wendy. I'm right here." His voice was hoarse, full of heartache as he watched Wendy's pained expression.

But thanks to Natsu confirming that he was by her side, she was able to from a small smile at the very least. "That's good, I'm glad. Sorry...I was such a burden."

Natsu instantly shook his head at that. "You were never a burden. You did great. We were up against dragons after all. So, it's not your fault...Okay? You hear me? Don't blame yourself for this. You did your best." Natsu tried his best to convince her, all the while his river of emotions continued flowing down his face, splattering onto the ground. His tears mixed in with the puddle of Wendy's blood as he continued to sniffle.

"You know...I've always loved you."

"Wendy's eyes widened in shock at that. Shock, surprise, happiness, bitterness. All of these emotions welled up inside of the girl's tiny body tears welled up in her eyes. "Natsu...You really mean it?"

"Of course I do! I've loved you from the start! So, please don't go...Please don't leave me."

"I've always loved you too, Natsu," Wendy uttered those words in gentle, soft-spoken voice as Natsu's mouth opened up slightly.

Natsu's teeth chattered as he watched Wendy's eyes slowly begin to close. It was painstaking feeling...A horrible, ruthless, sickening feeling that he was unable to do anything to save Wendy. He felt so completely helpless as all he could was watch her in her last moments.

"I wanted us...to be together forever..." She said those words as her eyes shut. Natsu felt the warmth of the hand he had been holding slowly fade away. He slowly and carefully let go of Wendy's hand. And with eyes that were now stained red, he stood back up. "Wendy...I wanted us to be together forever too. I'm sorry." Falling to his knees he slammed his fists on the ground, sobbing relentlessly. "I'm sorry, Wendy! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" All he could was repeat those two words endlessly, like a broken record as his tears returned with a vengeance, falling down his face once more, never to truly stop.
