How to Train Your Dragon Slayer

Final Battle

Lucy stared at the small dragon, who wore a very unamused look on his face. She blink twice, was Kindle really Natsu? How could she now have notice this before.

Kindle-Natsu let out a small growl, before for jerking his head towards the dark mage. Lucy's eyes followed suit.

Everyone else in their little group were in battle stances, prepared to take the man on.

"Wendy," Erza called out.

"You need to leave, whatever that spell is we can not allow it to hit you."

The sky dragon hesitated for a moment, glancing down at the dragon standing not far from her feet.

Natsu twisted his neck to return the look, he purred and nodded at her.

"Right," Wendy piped as she took a sudden bolt for the door.

"It won't be that easy!" The dark mage roared hands swinging in her direction as he ready the spell.

Erza with out batting an eye at the dragon slayer, used her feet to push off the ground and launch herself at the slender figure.

Summoning a sword in each hand, she swung and forced the dark wizard to cancel his spell and leap back to dodge.

"I demand you turn Natsu back into a human,"

"Haha, what makes you think I'll take orders from you?" The mage croaked, cocking an eyebrow.

"Trust me pal," Gray leap behind his opponent "if you want to stay alive you better listen to her," he yelled before firing ice make lances at the man.

The mage attempted to dodge but was struck with a few of the icy spikes.

"It'll take more then that boy,"

The dark wizard turned around and shot a blast of white fire from his palm. It danced threw the air for a brief moment before striking the ice mage on his chest.

Gray was thrown back a bit but quickly caught himself.

"After all the fights I've had with Natsu weak fire like yours won't do much damaged," Gray hissed leaping back onto his feet.

Lucy summoned her spirits and quickly joined the fight, while Natsu silent stalked around the battle seemingly looking for something though he wasn't sure what it was.

The small dragon was slinking around the battle keeping wary eyes on the other dark mages who weren't in the battle.

The female from before steadily approached him. Natsu lowered himself and bared his fangs and flexed his claws, releasing a warning growl. The women looked at him before glancing at the battle the dragons eyes followed her.

Smack

The dark mage slashed the dragon with her whip before he could draw his eyes back to her. Natsu released a pain filled yelp and leaped back away from her. The whip had struck his right shoulder and left a thin gash.

The sudden cry from behind them made the light mages look towards the sound. Erza eyes glazed with fury at the women, however she could not intervene has she was dealing with dark mage. Gray glanced at the dragon but he was quickly forced to refocus on the fight when a blast of dark magic was caste his way. Lucy reached for one of her keys, but Natsu hissed in her direction.

"Focus on that creep," He barked at her while tossing his head in the direction of the dark mage "I think I can handle her," he growled before taking two steps away from the female in front of him and readying himself.

Natsu had known that his words had been pointless but to his relief Lucy seemed to understand the message and hesitantly turned away from them.

The women lashed her whip out towards him, Natsu jump to his left and felt the wind from the attack. With an angry grunt he rushed towards the mage using his powerful back legs to propel himself forward.

He slid on his paws using his back and front claws to ground himself, he knew there wasn't really much he could truly do but that didn't stop him.

Quickly Natsu slashed at the women legs and ankles shredding them, before leaping out of the way from a kick. The women hissed in pain but didn't back down.

Meanwhile back with the human fairy tail members they were easily handling the dark mage, it was clear that he had spent most his effort into mastering the dragon turning spell however he still had a few tricks up his sleeve.

"Bound sword," his gruff voice called as a sword formed from withing his white flames, it wasn't quite requiping magic but close to it.

He was able to properly fend off Erza attacks now and had even manged to get a few good slashes in at Gray and Lucy's spirits.

Lucy huffed as she summoned Taurus.

Gray launched another ice attack at the mage and Erza got a clean hit in with her blade.

The man yowled in pain, before leaping away from the mages and landing not so gracefully on his feet. He held his bleeding shoulder and watched the mages with a grimace on his face.

"You brats," he spat.

Erza growled "this will be your last warning turn Natsu back," she lifted her sword up threateningly towards him. Lucy silently grip the Scarf around her neck and sent an unsure glance at the small dragon who seemed to be playing a game of tag with the other dark guild members.

The man laughed and Erza narrowed her eyes.

"What's so funny," it was Gray who muttered the question.

"You all are fools, there is no away I could turn your precious boy back." he croaked.

"You will even if I have to force you," Erza threatened.

"No you idiots," the dark mage spat "there isn't away to reverse the spell I never got to the that point I never needed to get to that point."

Lucy and the others watched the man in horror.

Natsu had leapt away from his own excuse for a battle to listen in and now sat nervously beside Lucy.

"No," he muttered part of him wanted to not believe what the dark mage had said but it made sense. When he first got here the man standing before him had told his guild master that he finally perfected the spell to turn a dragon slayer into a dragon. There would be no need for him to find a way reverse it.

"No," Lucy whispered.

"Now that, that's said and done," the mage suddenly became a blur of white flames startling the group and causing the dragon the leap to his paws.

"I think I'm done with you," a flurry of white flames scattered in Natsu and Lucy's direction the man had managed to become one with his fire. He was in front of them in seconds, his sword swung low aiming for Lucy's stomach.

Natsu hadn't a moment to think his paws and wings moved on their own, as his powerful back legs and wings launched themselves into the air forcing himself in between Lucy and the blade.

It was a clean cut that stretched from the side of his neck all the way to his hind leg. Natsu winced as he felt the blade rip threw his scales, skin and muscle. He collided with the ground painful and rolled over himself twice before landing on his belly, head between his slight spread out front paws, mussel open slightly, back legs on their side, his right torn wing and intake left wing sprawled out on their respective sides and a small pool of blood formed slowly.

Natsu's guild mates stared down in shock. It happened so quickly. The dark mage stared at the small dragon with fearful eyes as we noticed the torn up right wing.

All was silent and still.

No one dared to move.

The only noise to be heard was the dragons ragged breathing and the small whimper from Lucy.

A/N: Fuck sorry for the long wait, I have no idea to write battles????
