Kameel

I smiled as I saw the peices fitting together in his eyes. He finally figured it out.

"Good job, Natsu. You figured it out." I whispered only for him to hear.

"What type?!" He asked loudly.

I smirked at him. He may have figured out that I'm a Dragon Slayer, but he was deffinetly in for a shock...

I made sure that my hands weren't touching the wooden counter before setting them ablaze.

He stepped back, his features over taken by shock. I heard gasps from the people in the room. I could feel their eyes on me and my burning hands.

"You're a..." Natsu breathed.

I glanced around the Hall and then whispered,

"I'm more than just a Salamander, Natsu... I'm your sister."

"NO!!! WHAT??? HOW?!?" He screamed, his hands also catching fire.

"Natsu! Calm down!! What did she say?" 'Happy' asked worriedly.

Natsu backed away, shaking his head violently. Small sounds escaped his lips, sounding like 'No' or 'How'. Then he turned and dashed up the stairs.

I turned back to the people in the Hall. I smiled and shook my hands, putting out the fire.

"Uhm... I'm gonna go talk to him, if you don't mind."

Natsu

"How! How! I just don't understand it! How can I have a sis-" The word choked in my throat.

I couldn't have a sister. She couldn't be my sister!! It wasn't possible!!!

"Hey."

I jumped back at the voice. I looked up at the face of Kameel.

I couldn't... nothing made sense anymore!

"Stay back!!" I shouted. My hand burned brightly as I swung with all my might at her.

I gasped as her hand clamped firmly around my fist. My fire flickered as it gradualy crept up her arm. Her face was serious, firm, just like her vise-like grip.

"Lemme GO!!!" I cried furiously. I pulled back, almost falling over when she let go.

"Before you do anything stupid, lets leave this beautiful building so we don't wreck it." Her tone was stern, and her words were implying that something destructive was about to happen.

I backed away, and ran across the side of the Guild Hall. I leaped down, blindly hoping that she couldn't follow. But against my hopes, I heard light footsteps above me as Kameel pursued me me.

I turned mid-air so I was facing her. I sucked in a large gulp of air and breathed a thick line of orange fire. Before I made contact with the ground, I swung my legs below me and slammed into the ground, leaving a crater in my wake.

When I looked up, I saw her amber eyes shining with power. Her hands were bright with white fire.

"FIRE DRAGON IRON COMBO!!!" She screamed.

Within three hits, I was out cold.

Back to Kameel

I stepped through the large doors of the Hall, panting. My mahogony jacket blew off when I jumped off the ledge, and now I was only in my white, dragon scale tank top and my worn out jeans.

All the people in the Hall were looking anxiously up at the staircase that me and Natsu went up just minutes ago.

"Hey! Could someone help me drag that big meat head back in here?" I called.

Everybody snapped their attention to me.

"Did... did you knock him out?" A young, raven-haired man asked in a gruff voice.

I chuckled. "Yeah!" I rubbed the back of my neck in embarresement.

"What did you fricken do to him?" He exclaimed and rushed past me. He didn't sound worried, but excited, which was strange.

"Is he okay?" A tall, red-headed woman asked, worry laced her voice.

"Yeah, he's fine. Just taking a little nap." I smirked.

"NATSU!!!" Happy flew out the door like a jet, making my hair fly into my face.

"Heh!" I turned back to the gaping crowd. "I'm just gonna go now..."

As soon as I stepped around the corner of the building, I sighed, relieved, and then rushed to help with the unconsious Natsu laying limp on the ground.

The Red-head, Raven and Happy were all sitting around him. The Raven, who had somehow lost his shirt, was poking Natsu in the face with a stick. The Red-head was kneeling down next to him, looking for any broken bones. Happy was terrified for the saftey of his friend.

The Red-head turned and looked up with a peircing stare.

"What did you do to our team mate?" She demanded.

I placed my hand on my hip and smirked. "Aren't I allowed to bang up my brother?" I asked simply.

All three of them gasped in shock.

"Natsu's your... brother?" Raven gasped.

"Don't ask me how I know, cause I'm not sure. But all I know is that I have been asleep for seven years, and I was woken up by a gruff voice three days ago, telling me to find Natsu Dragneel, my brother, and to protect him from an imanent threat." I explained.

"We didn't ask." Happy whispered.

I turned to him. "Yeah, you weren't asking very loudly!" I smirked.

"If you're his sister, then that mean's that you must be Kameel Dragneel. You must have something to do with Igneel!" Red-head said.

"Igneel?"

"Igneel..."

Natsu and I both said at the same time. His voice was low and shaky as he struggled to his knees.

"He was my father. He was the one who trained me, who taught me Dragon Slayer magic. He also dissapered without a trace seven years ago." He looked down at the white dragon scale scarf wrapped around his neck. "This was the only thing he gave me... before he left..."

I gasped. My eyes glazed over as memories struck me with such force it knocked me off my feet. I remembered! I remembered EVERYTHING!! I could... remember my father... Igneel Dragneel, the feircesome Fire Dragon.
