The Sixteen Elemental Dragons

The Snowy Showdown

Outside the Guild

Master Makarov sat on the railing of the balcony, which had an amazing view of the ocean and the battlefield which Natsu and Fuyu had moved to. The group that came outside to watch, consisting of Team Natsu, the Dragonslayers (including Laxus), Levy, Romeo, Mira, and the Exceeds, followed the master as Natsu and Fuyu walked out onto the rocky beachfront, nearly 30 meters apart.

"When I drop my hand, the duel will begin! Do both parties understand?!" exclaimed the master. Both Natsu and Fuyu nodded as they each took up their fighting stances. Makarov then proceeded to raise his hand, the crowd watching focused on the duo, making sure that nothing went unnoticed by their eyes. "Begin!" shouted the master as he swung his hand forward, starting the duel.

Natsu was the first to move, launching himself toward Fuyu, right hand reared back ready to strike. As Natsu drew nearer to the younger mage, his fist erupted in flames before swinging forward, striking its target. Everyone watching had seen Natsu's attack land, but they had forgotten one crucial factor for this fight; they didn't know what kind of dragon slayer Fuyu was.

Natsu felt something was off and jump back a few feet. The fire mage quivered as he saw ice-like dragon scales fall from the boy's cheek.

"Was that your best punch? If it was, joining will be easy." stated Fuyu coldly. The boy suddenly started releasing his magic energy, snow crystalizing around him, forming itself into the shape of a roaring dragon. Fuyu's face grew annoyed. "Get serious, I know what you can do so show your power or you'll be buried by mine." said Fuyu, who's face was now hidden by a snow storm. "Snow Dragon's Roar!" screamed Fuyu as a blast of icy wind and snow flew towards Natsu.

Having barely any time to react, Natsu created his own roar and tried to push back, but due to both the roars being opposites and aiming in opposite directions, they exploded. The explosion, being closer to Natsu, sent him flying backwards, while Fuyu slid back a few good inches. Natsu landed somewhat gracefully on his feet and saw the strength in his foe, "If you want full power, then I'll give you everything I've got! Lightning Flame Dragon Mode!" he exclaimed, shrouding his body in flames with an armor of lightning woven into them.

"So this is what your flames clad in lightning look like? Quite marvelous. However, I think mine looks stronger. Frozen Sound Dragon Mode!" yelled Fuyu boldy. Fuyu's magical power quadrupled, his body grew gray scales on and around all the visible joints, and his silver-gray colored eyes turned to a bright, burnt orange. A visible aura of magic energy spiraled around Fuyu's feet and made the air dance from the disturbance.

Natsu spent too long wondering what Fuyu meant by "sound dragon" and learned it's meaning the hard way.

Fuyu, having sped forward in the blink of an eye, punched upward into Natsu's stomach, causing the pink-haired boy to slide backwards, holding his gut in pain.

"Do I win?" asked Fuyu, his voice sounding like two overlapping on top of each other.

Natsu took a few moments to regain his breath. "Sure, you can join." he said, smirking as he stood upright with look of excitements on his face. "Too bad this is only a duel and not an official fight though..." He whined.

Fuyu nodded his head and smiled back, "Agreed..."

Both the slayers exited their respective alternate dragon modes and walked back towards the guild together.

Master Makarov turned around and went to his office humming a tune, "I guess that solves that matter, Mira, make sure the young lad gets his guild mark please."

"Yes Master," said Mira as she stared completely astonished at what had happened in mere moments.

All the spectators, officially, had their minds blown. They all held within a burning desire to find out why Natsu conceded the match and who Fuyu really is.

A/N: Got done with this chapter really quickly, you can probably see why, so I published it on the same day. Lucky Me! Also, again, If you want one of the sixteen dragon slayers to be your character then PM or you could also put in a review if that's easier. The template to submit them is in the reviews for this story, along with another rule I forgot to mention last time. I'll post a list of the new characters as an informative, additional chapter when the spaces left get smaller so you can see how many are left. Later Fairy Tailers! See you on Thursday!
