A Little Push (Nalu)

Chapter 9

Lisanna's POV:

Since I wanted to keep an eye on Lucy and Natsu. I volenteered to be the "birds eye view" to make sure the parade didn't go wrong. Let me tell you, master took birds eye view quite literally. Right now I'm in my half bird form waiting for the parade to start.

Mira walked up to me and handed me a small lacrima, "I want their float recorded." she whispered. "I'm on it." I flapped my wings as we started to move the floats.

I had the lacrima in my talons cause my wings were occupied with flying. One by one the floats started off.

The first float was, of course, Mira and Master. They were at the front representing the guild. Next was Gray and Juvia. Juvia's water was helping Gray make beautiful ice sculptures. On the next float, Max and Wendy, we're combining their magic to make Max's sand move in mystical, magical ways.

(Author: I thought the mixture of sand and wind magic would be good. As much as I wanted to put Romeo and Wendy on the same float I felt this worked better for the parade.)

After that, It was Laki and Romeo. Laki was making gigantic wood carvings and Romeo was using his purple flames to burn designs into the wood.

Then came the float with the rest of the guild members. And last but certainly not least. The stars of the parade, Natsu and Lucy. Natsu had Happy underneath his cloak, so it appeared he was flying with the dragon wings on his back. 'Wow, only you would think that up Natsu.' I thought. I held the lacrima and started recording. Lucy was using her keys to make small fireworks and Natsu was helping out with his fire. The combination of orange in yellow above their float was amazing.

About halfway through the parade, Natsu swooped down and grabbed Lucy, taking her up above the float with him.

Lucy looked shocked. Then she took a peek downward and from the look on her face, she regreted it. Natsu laughed, then he let out a roar of fire that much resembled that of a dragon. The crowd went absolutely wild. Cheers were heard with the chanting of "Salamander"

At the end of the parade, it was the grand finish. Each float had something prepared for this. Master and Mira switched into their more terrifying transformations. Master went giant and Mira went satan soul.

Gray and Juvia made shards of ice so small it was like glitter and had it rain down over the whole town. Wendy and Max swirled the sand around above them and had it silently and beautifully burst in all directions, but just before the crowd was showered with sand, they brought it back and had it gather in the shape of the Fairy Tail insignia.

Laki carved a smaller version of the guild hall and Romeo burned the name across the front. The rest of the guild members shot their magic simultaneously and made fireworks.

Then Natsu and Lucy's float came next. Lucy held up one of her keys, from were I was flying it looked sorta like Loke. Natsu grasped her key with her and the brightest of flames shot up into the sky. It was beautiful. The flames spelt out "X791 Winners: Fairy Tail." in the sky. The crowd burst into cheers once more shouting the name "Fairy Tail".

The flames shone brighter, I'm guessing from regulus, then they burst out in all directions lighting up the sky across the city till they faded away.

The parade finished and we headed back to the guild hall. Many people thanked us for the amazing show and said they were glad to have Fairy Tail back. Some said they couldn't wait till the rest of the festival started.

Then saw I a little girl, around the age of 5, run past me. I looked up and she was headed towards Natsu's float where he happened to be helping Lucy down cause of her heels. I decided to "acompany" her and see what happened.

She ran up to Natsu and pulled on his cloak. He looked down and smiled, "Hey there! Need something?" She fidgeted and looked at Lucy. "I wanted to ask the princess something. Is dat ok, Mr. Dragon?" she asked him. I giggled, 'She's so adorable!' I though in my head.

"Of course." he ruffled her hair. "Hey Luce, this little girl has got question for you." he looked over to were she was conversating with Laki. "Oh, I'll be back in just a minute." she told Laki.

"Hello there! I heard you had a question?" Lucy smiled as she crouched down to the little girls level. The small child nodded and then messed with her hands. "Um Princess, why do you love Mr. Dragon?" the little girl asked. Lucy looked shocked. "Um, well." she stuttered. I zoomed in on the lacrima I forgot to turn off, I was glad I did. "In all the stories dat Momma reads me, the prince fights the dragon and the princess loves the prince." she stated.

"Well um you see." she began. Then she sighed, "Well, the princess in this story, she decided that the since the dragon was always protecting her, why would she need a prince? She decided she didn't need to marry a prince. She could love anyone she wanted to. So she fell in love with the dragon instead." Lucy put out clearly. "Oh dat makes sense. That means I can marry who I want too right?" the little girl asked. "Of course, but I think you should wait till your a little older little miss princess." Lucy hugged the child and the girl giggled.

"Thank you Ms. Princess!" the little girl shouted while running back to her mom who was watching the whole time. "Momma! I met the princess and she was married to a dragon!" she giggled excitedly and her mom giggled with her, "Is that so?"

I returned my gaze to Natsu and Lucy. Lucy was blushing madly and Natsu was just blank. Then I ran up to both of them, "Well, Mr and Mrs. Dragneel, I think we should hurry and get ready for the rest of the festival." I snickered.

As I ran toward the guild I heard shouts of, "We're not married!" 'I can't wait for the rest of the festival, so far it's great!' I laughed in my head.
