Because I didn't have anywhere to go last night, I stayed with Natsu at his place. After I left, I went and rented an apartment not far from the guild. Surprising, Lucy lived right beside me. She really wasn't kidding when she said that the landlady was scary.
I shuddered at the thought.
I went to the guild, planning to meet with the rest of the group. When I got there, of course, there was drinking and fighting. Wow, it's like I've been here my whole life.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME, ICE PERVERT?" Natsu called out Gray.
"YOU HEARD ME FLAME BRAIN," Gray responded.
Erza got in the middle the argument and bashed their heads together. "Quit acting like children and grow up!"
I took a seat next to Lucy. "Are they always like this?"
Lucy nodded. "Everyday, and it's over the littlest things. And whatever you do, do NOT ruin Erza's strawberry cheesecake. It'll be your death wish." I could see her literally shudder.
Natsu walked up to me and grinned. "Alright Lycas, let's take this outside. I'm gonna see how tough you really are."
Oh God...
We headed outside and I noticed that the whole guild came outside with us. Wow, is it really that interesting?
'Oh boy, Natsu's gonna kill him...'
Hold up.....Who said that? I looked around but nobody had moved whatsoever, not showing any signs of someone talking. Did I....just read someone's mind?
"Come on, Lycas!" Lucy cheered. "You can do this!"
I blushed a little at her action. God, I'm going soft!
Natsu was on the opposite end of the field. "Are you ready for this?"
"I guess." I sighed.
Natsu then charged at me with shocking speed. "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
I quickly dodged it. "Shadow Dragon's Roar!" I blasted the back of Natsu with shadows. It definitely took a hit on him.
Natsu, however, had different plans. He dashed forward and decided to go with hand-to-hand combat. A punch was thrown at my head and I ducked down, getting up close to his weak points in his guard. Quickly, I threw two quick jabs in his ribs then swung low, kicking his legs out from under him.
As he got up, I stepped forward and punched him in the stomach. He stumbled back a bit, regaining his posture. In a blink of an eye, Natsu appeared in front of my ready to punch. I caught his punch at the last second, pulling him closer and shaming my knee into his jaw. The momentum send him a couple feet of the ground. He got up from the ground, panting.
Suddenly he drew in a deep breath, "Fire Dragon's Roar!"
As his blast of fire came at me, I opened my mouth and took a deep breath in, consuming his fire.
Natsu stood there, shocked. "WHAT?! You ate my flames!"
Lucy stood, awestricken. 'Did Lycas just...... Eat Natsu's flames?'
My eyes flashed red. "Fire Dragon's Secret Art: Crimson Lotus Fire Dragon's Fist." I dashed forward, faster than what Natsu had comprehended. I appeared right in front of him and hit him right in the chest. Natsu went flying back, skidding across the ground painfully.
Natsu struggled to get up. "Y-your....... Good I'll give you that..." He coughed up bit of blood. "But t-that was.... Nothing."
"Here's a new one I came up with," I grinned evilly while jumping up into the air, "Universal Dragon's Secret Art: Cosmic Dragon's Rage!" Blazing white flames covered my right hand while translucent black flames covered my left. I disappeared and then reappeared behind Natsu, blasting him in the back with a ray of black and white flames, spiraling. "Universal Dragon's Roar!" I roared as golden fire shot from my mouth.
