Sunlight trickled in through the window spilling across pink scales, the heat from the sun caused the dragon to stir. Natsu rolled on to his back, stretching his wings as he did so. He let out a purr of content.

"I didn't think dragons would purr." A silky voice called to him. The dragon opened his eyes and caught the gaze of his blonde companion. He stretched a paw out towards her, she reached out gently held it.

"Awe you've got little bean toes just like a kitty cat." She cued, he grunted at her.

Natsu retracted his paw and rolled back onto his tummy. As he pushed himself back onto his four paws he took a moment to stretch his spine and yawn.

He met Lucy gaze and noticed that the Mage was already cleaned up, dressed and ready for the day. The dragon watched her for a moment, she seemed to be waiting for him do something. "Food please" he chirped has he hoped down from the warm bed and padded towards the door.

Lucy followed after him. She was probably talking Natsu just wasn't listening as he took in how much bigger everything looked from this view. The welpling had not notice his blonde partner stride into the kitchen and prepare him more fish.

Once the sent graced his nose he sprang after it taking long strides. "Breakfast time Kindle." Lucy announced placing the small plate down.

It didn't talks long from him to wolf the meal down. After he was down he padded after Lucy finding her at her writing desk. She was probably writing a letter to her mom, if that's the case then he shouldn't disturb her. He changed course and made his way to the couch.

'Now,' he thought 'how am I gonna get changed back to normal' he originally hoped the dragon slayers could understand him but no luck there. Well there was still Sting and Rouge but if Gajeel and Wendy couldn't understand him then why would they?

Natsu flicked his tail and felt his wings curls around him in frustration. Why did he have to get hit by that stupid spell. He growled at his own thoughts. Maybe there was a chance Sting and Rouge could understand him? After all Wendy was so young and Gajeel had the brains of a rabbit. He shifted his paws, ideas flowed into his head on how to reverse the spell but it seemed with out the ability to speak he'd get no where.

"Maybe I could try-"

"LUCY!" The shout of Lucy's landlady made him jump and tore him out of his thoughts.

Lucy herself had jumped and was now staring wide eyed at her landlady who's own eyes were locked on him.

Natsu stayed still, he felt like a deer caught in headlights.

"When did you get a dog?" The elderly women barked.

Natsu tilted his head "dog?!" He half shouted bewildered.

Lucy looked at him, she to had been thrown off by the comment. She turned her eyes back into the elderly women.

"I'm sorry I just brought him home last night I should have asked I know but it wasn't something I was expecting to happen." His partner explained.

Natsu looked at her in shock.

"You're seriously going along with this chick?! You're just gonna let people think I'm a fricken dog!??"

"Well. I do wish you would have told me but..." the older women trailed off as she marched towards the dragon-dog and inspected him.

"I'm a sucker for animals." She cued.

Natsu felt very uncomfortable.
