Chapter 5

They fell asleep hugging once again but it didn't last long before a big bang was heard outside the inn and screams followed soon after.

Gray and Natsu shot up and Gray threw on some pants, then they both headed out the door, Guests were running around and away from the entrance. Gray and Natsu ran towards the entrance and met up with Erza and Lucy.

"Happy fly me up!! I wanna get a better look!"

"Aye Sir!"

Happy grabbed onto Natsu's shoulders and lifted him up over the running crowd of people. Natsu seen the problem. In the middle of the street stood a hooded figure casting magic spells, dark magic spells.

"Happy! Drop me!" Natsu was dropped right in front of the mysterious figure and soon a flaming fist was thrown at them.

The hooded figure stumbled a little before throwing a spear made from black matter at the dragon slayer, Natsu dodged with ease and shouted "Fire Dragon's Roar!" the enemy dodged the spiraling fire coming their way only to get hit by a bunch of ice shards.

"Natsu! Don't go off yourself!" Gray ran and stood back to back with Natsu as more hooded figures appeared.

"Sorry but I wanted to see who was causing so much trouble!"

"Ice Make Shield!" Gray put up a shield just as a couple more dark spears came their way.

"Fire dragon's wing attack!" Natsu hit another two enemies and sent them flying into more enemies.

Natsu noticed the girls were fighting a group of their own. Looks like it was up to Gray and him to defeat this group. He threw another punch at an enemy but got hit by a spear instead. Dark magic circled around him before his body absorbed it, he started to get dizzy before everything went black and he dropped to the ground. The last thing he heard was Gray going on a rampage.

Natsu woke up and found himself layed in the room him and Gray were staying in at the inn, he sat up and instantly fell back to the bed after feeling an intense pain run through his abdomen.

Gray walked into the room and noticed that Natsu was awake and he made his way over to the side of the bed. "Hey, Nice to see that you woke up" He smiled at the dragon slayer and sat down on the bed.

"What happened?" Natsu groaned.

"You got hit during a fight, do you remember anything?"

"Um, yeah, I remember the fight, Do you defeat them?"

"You know I did!" Gray grinned but it faded "they hurt you, there's no way i'd let them get away with that"

Natsu grinned "Great! But I feel like shit!!" He groaned as he tried to roll on to his side, when he let out a gasp Gray rolled him back over onto his back.

"No moving!"

"What exactly hit me?"

"Well I don't exactly know what it was but it was some type of dark magic, it was the shape of a spear and somehow your body absorbed it."

Natsu looked as if his brain couldn't process what Gray was telling him. Gray chuckled at his reaction. and leaned down to place a kiss to his forehead. "Lets not worry about this right now, we can head back to the guild later because Wendy needs to check on you, We need to make sure you're okay."

Natsu nodded and closed his eyes drifting off back into sleep.

When Natsu woke up again he was at the guild, but something didn't feel right, Wendy had already checked on him and she was now talking to the master.

"He was hit by some type of poison, and it drains your powers and replaces them with the same dark magic that is in the poison."

Master looked at Wendy and sighed, it was just as he suspected. Carla's vision was coming true.

Natsu sat up in the bed, he was no longer in pain for some reason and he got up and walked down to the others.

Gray noticed Natsu and ran over to him. "Natsu what are you doing out of bed!"

"I'm not in pain, I feel fine right now, well something feels different but i can't place my finger on it." He placed a finger on his lips and thought but he looked way too confused to deal with it.

Master came out of his office and looked up at Natsu "child, come with me, along with the rest of you as well."

Natsu followed the Master into his office and they all followed as well.

Master sat down in his chair and motioned for everyone to sit as well. "I have some news about what happened to Natsu, it's not good news."

Natsu swallowed a lump in his throat as he waited for the master to continue, Gray looked uneasy as did the rest of the team.

"Natsu, you were hit with a spear with poison laced in it, The poison is making its way through your body, it will eventually suck out your magic and replace it with the magic that made the spear and poison..and there's nothing we can do to stop it right now...I'm sorry , we will keep looking but so far there is no cure."

The team was left dumbfounded and Natsu teared up, Gray snapped out of his shocked state and wrapped his arms around the dragon slayer who was now shaking.

"Shh, Natsu don't worry we will find a cure, we will fix this, that poison will not take you magic." Gray tried his best to comfort the dragon slayer but nothing he said seemed to work.

Master let them stay in his office as he went to find levy and Freed.

Natsu didn't know what to think, what was this going to do to him? He definitely didn't want to lose the power that Igneel gave him, he was afraid, would the dark magic change him? Would it take control over him? He panicked and something took over, he started to feel dizzy again and everything went black once more, the last thing he heard was someone shouting.

"NATSU!!"
