Titania and the Card Mage's Little Dragon

Chapter Twenty One Surprises and Family?

September 2nd

(Mavis Vermilion) Natsu I'm your biological aunt I said to my nephew Natsu had a stunned look on his face, How How is this possible Master Mavis? When your mom gave birth to you many centuries ago it was a time of complete darkness and chaos and in order to protect you she froze you in stone and she hid you away to protect you, Eventually you were released from your stone prison Eighteen years ago and Igneel took you in.

I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sooner about of familiar connections I was very worried that if any of Fairy Tail's enemies learned about our relationship they would use you to get to me and Master Makarov and vice versa, I forgive you Aunt Mavis Natsu replied and then he stood up from the bed and he walked over to me and he hugged me, I returned the hug.

Does any one else know about our relationship Aunty? I said with a smile the only person who currently knows about our connection is Makarov, Natsu broke off the hug and he smiled up at me I said I have some things that your mother left behind for you I opened the top drawer of my desk and I pulled out a journal and a letter.

I then said your mom left you a journal with a lot of useful information and advice on life and the letter is the final part of the gifts dear, Your mother and father gave their lives when a group of Zeref cultists interrogated them for information on where you had been hidden at, Natsu then asked why did the cultists want to know where I was hidden Aunt Mavis?

I said with a sad smile the cult wanted to know where you were hidden to dispose of you because of the immense threat that you may pose to their idol upon his return to the Kingdom of Fiore, Natsu started to tear up and he said are you saying that this is all my fault? No no far from it honey your mom and dad loved you dearly and I can say for certain that both of you them are very proud of you and the person you've become.

Let me show you something that is at a hidden alcove that is behind the guild hall I then led Natsu out of the guild hall and around the back of the hall, upon coming upon the hidden alcove I led him through the brush and until we came up a small clearing and I led Natsu over to a tombstone that read Jasmine and Jeremiah Vermilion.

Jasmine Vermilion x272-x339/ Jeremiah Vermilion x275-339 I motioned for Natsu to walk over to the tombstone if he wanted to see it, Natsu approached the grave hesitantly and when he reached it he knelt down in front of the grave, I felt a few stray tears cascade down my cheeks but I wiped them away before I walked over to Natsu and we both sat there in silence as it started to pour rain on top of us.

We both stayed here as long as we could without catching a cold but eventually we had to get back inside the guild hall so Natsu could go home with his mothers.
