You quickly side stepped the flaming punch of your opponent. "Quit dodging!" Your fiery foe demanded, swinging his fire cloaked fists as hard as he could at you. "Quit trying to hit me without applying any sort of thought to this fight. Even your father could do that much." Your hand lashed out, grabbing the younger boys wrist, his flame snuffing as you suppressed his magic. Growling he flipped, regaining his arm and fire as he tried to kick your head, only for you to push it aside as if it was nothing. "Fine!" Landing at his feet he gripped his hands in front of him as he yelled, "Fire Dragon Roar!" As you watched you smiled and ate the fire as you'd done so many times during these sorts of fights. Panting your opponent now knelt, his energy and Magic spent. Chuckling you helped him up, leading him back to the house. "Come on Igneel, your mom and Aunt Juvia probably have dinner ready by now." He at least perked up at the mention of food as you led him into the large cabin. "We're back," you called through the house as you walked in, setting Igneel on the couch next to his dad. "He did about the same again Natsu, you really need to teach him how to fight with his head and not just his heat." Smirking Natsu patted his second child on the head.  "Ah he's just like his old man when I was his age." Chuckling you watched as Natsus oldest child, Nashi walked out of the kitchen. "Uncle (F/N), Dad, lunch is ready." All three of you all but barreled into the dining room as Juvia and Lucy were setting the table. "Hey honey." Lucy kissed her child and husband both on the cheek as you sneaked over and kissed Juvia. "Hi my love." You said, as you all sat around the table, you and Juvia sitting together as the Dragneels all sat together. All of you ate in relative peace, aside from the calm discussion over you and Natsus next jobs. A knock at the door interuppting you all. "Igneel could you go get that?" Lucy asked, in no time he ran to the door and threw it open. "Uncle Gray!" He tackled the black haired guy into a hug as you and everyone else got up and walked over, hugging him and shaking his hand. "Nice to see you Gray, staying for lunch?" Natsu asked, fixing his black cloak. "Sure, after all why wouldn't I visit you guys. Besides I wanted to see my godchild." He chuckled as your young son snuck down the stairs and got behind you. Tugging at your pants he looked up at you. "Daddy whose this?" Picking your son up you held him and let Gray say hi. After awhile everyone went back to the table, your son Miraak in your lap. Gray sat between you and the Dragneels, chattering you all up as you ate. "So how are you and Ultear, now that she's not super aged anymore?" You asked, picking your teeth. "Good, we decided to adopt a kid once I get enough jewels to rent the apartment we want." Patting him on the back you chuckled. "Congrats you two. You should come over and celebrate when you get it."

For the rest of the night you all talked about the past, present, and future. All of it viewed with joy and optimism.
