(Natsu POV)
When I awoke, I immediately felt a pain in my head. I held my head with both hands and looked around for someone but, no one is here besides a bottle that has a message left in Draconic next to it. I read it but I struggle a bit because it has been a while since I have used this language. Sorry Natsu we... but we see that you are... in the mean time drink this. I look back to the swamp green liquid that fills the glass. The worst part is I can already smell it from hear. I sit up right, grab the glass, and hold my breath. I raise the glass to my mouth and glup the awful muck down my throat. When I finish with the drink. The door opens. Dranov is there at the door with his arms crossed and he just stares at me. "Not very pleasant is it" Dranov says from across the room. "No not really" I replied. "You will be drinking those every morning and night for you stay" Dranov coolly replied. "Awawawawawaw but why." "Because that drink will help you from rampaging again. Natsu, you do know what is making you rampage, right." I shake my head not knowing what he means by rampaging, in fact all I remember is being knocked the fuck out. "Natsu the reason you are rampaging is because of this mating season. Being away from your mate is causing you to go agro, luckily we aren't far into this mating season so you are turning yet." "TURNING... WHAT DO YOU MEAN." Dranov then look at me dead in the eyes and plainly says. "Natsu you coming here causes you to have a high risk of turning into part us and part human. Meaning you will turn into part draconian. You probably only knew of turning into some beast that can destroy everything which isn't wrong but now you know what that beast is. It is part us and part you because, no spell even is a dragons cannot change you full into something different forever. His eyes seemed to burn by what he had just said. Once again I nod my head in acknowledgment. "Good now that you have woken up, you should go eat now." Dranov commanded me. With that I get out of bed as I realize that I am starving. I also realize as I get out of bed that I only have on boxers and new ones at that. Confused because of this i just ignore it and go put some clothes that had been left for me in one of the drawers. The clothes felt the same as the last ones, silky, soft, and fit just right. The shirt this time had no sleeves and was tight around my torso. The light green shirt clearly showed my defined abs and my chest. The pants were long like the last ones, in fact they were just normal pants that didn't have pockets. These gray pants have a black line on one side and a white one on the other, both are going up and down. When I finished admiring myself and the clothes I had received, I walk to the door and immediately smelled something that my nose couldn't forget. I run to the kitchen and find Dranov making something that I still can't see quite see yet. As I walk closer Dranov unmoving, says in an energetic voice "Grab seat Natsu it'll be ready in a couple of minutes." I go to take my seat at this elegant table. This table has a fire carved into the wood but that isn't the best part. There are three stands that the base of the table. The part of the leg that is in the table has a dragon head and the lower part of the leg is the fire coming from the dragon's mouth. And with the red, gray, black, white, and orange colors from the rock they used it really stands out. The greatest craving I think is the scales that cover the dragon. It's insane how much detail they took for this. After I'm done complementing the craftsmanship I pull out the chairs that look pale in comparison. As I sit down my normal hunger kicks into overdrive. "Dranov the food ready yet." "Calm down Natsu the food is almost at that point". I sit patiently waiting for my food and what feels like an hour comes down to 5 minutes. "Here we are" Dranov says with excitement in his voice. "We have obsidian worm eggs, and... " Dranov tries explaining by breakfast to me but I cut in "What the hell are obsidian worms" I ask with a hint of anger and excitement. "Well remember that giant worm you tried to attack." "Oh yeah I remember" I put my hand under my chin while saying this. "Well that is what that was. It can turn its skin to obsidian in an instant, though you must know that worm will be your next opponent." "Alright finally,  some action around here. Am I getting help from you or that big guy" I asked excitedly. "See that's the fun part. You get to do it all by yourself" Dranov said while trying to hold a grin. I didn't think it was funny though. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU WON'T HELP ME.  I DON'T KNOW HOW TO BEAT IT" I wailed like a child. "Oh and stop calling Barbus "the big guy" he has a name" After the laughter we just had this was a very fast switch in tone. "Oh sorry it's just that I didn't know his name" I apologized for what I did. "See I wouldn't really care it you did stuff like that to me but not him. You see Barbus's name in human tongue is barbarian. You do know what a barbarian is right." I nodded my head "yes a vicious warrior that is the ultimate weapon." Dranov sighed "I figured no you don't." "Hey I may not be that smart but at least I know that word" I growled at him. Dranov got up and placed both claws on the table. "Yes you may know the new definition but not the old one." I looked at him like a dog that is confused, which I was confused. "Barbarian used to mean, outsider. You see Barbus his family used to live outside our walls. They lived away from the city,  but they weren't alone. There were others that lived out there with Barbus's family. Together they formed the Barbus Tradav. Though during the war The Barbus Tradav were all killed except for Barbus, which is why he is called Barbus." "Wow, so everyone he loved is gone. I feel bad for the guy. Also what does Tradav mean Dranov." "It means together or tribe usually for people that are close together like a family."  After that talk we had both finished our meals and just as I was about to toss my plate in the sink well,  "Dranov were is the sink. I can find it anywhere." Dranov chuckled "that's because there isn't one. Use your fire magic to clean then." At first I thought WHY THE HELL DON'T YOU HAVE ONE but now it makes sense sorta. "Dranov do I literally just use fire magic of these plates." "Yes Natsu though there is a trick to it." I sigh "fine and what is it." "You can't use more than what the plates can take. You see if I use too much fire magic this happens." Dranov walks over from the table to the countertop where I stand and he grabs the plate from me. "Observe" Dranov calls for my attention. He starts off with a small fire slowly cleaning the plate. He then increases the flame just a little and "KABOOM" as air rushes past my ears and the smell of smoke and explosions fill my nose I grin. Dranov just coolly says "and that is what will happen if you use too much fire. Now it's your turn Natsu." I grabbed a plate and without any problem I blew up the plate. Dranov then followed with a face palm. "Natsu your supposed to clean the plates not destroy them." I then mumbled "fine party pooper." "I heard that" to my surprise Dranov heard that. This time I tried using a small flame but it still wasn't able to clean it,  it just blew up again. Dranov then yells from his room "Natsu if you are having problems just use one finger and make the flame small and concentrated." This time I used only one finger and concentrated the flame so that the heat was only in one area.
The plate shows some sparks but not KABOOM. "Hey Dranov I think I did it." I then hear footsteps rushing down stairs and to his surprise I have indeed done the task. "Wow... Natsu that was quick, usually it takes us a couple hours to get it to do what you are doing. Okay so that is done now try using a big fire that isn't hot." With that Dranov went upstairs to go finish whatever he is up to. I continued to work on my flame making sure to go make it large but not as hot. KABOOM. "This is going to take a while." As I continue this process it seems as the plates never run out. I look into the plate storage and there is only one in there "last try Natsu." I try really hard I sort of start to spark the plate but then it blew up. I sigh with relief,  but I didn't complete the job. With a look of defeat on my face I look towards the shelf and Lord behold there is another plate. "DRANOV." "Yes Natsu" Dranov answered. I then respond with "WHY DO THE PLATES KEEP COMING BACK." "Mwahahahahahah you've activated my trap card" Dranov calmly says as he walks down the stairs. "So do you have it down yet." "No Dranov I can't seem to get it down, to be honest it is kind of irritating." "Natsu you must be able to have the fire do what you want observe." Dranov then calls it into his hand. It spirals in his hand until it forms a tornado.  The tornado grows larger and larger until Dranov is engulf by the thing. The tornado is then replaced by a dragon's body. And everything Dranov does, the dragon does. (Kinda like Natsu when he went dragon force on Zero). I just stood in awe as I watched Dranov control this shape with ease.  If you can't do the plate thing try doing this. I remember this lesson told to me by someone else Macao. His lesson helped me to defeat that one guy with the wind and sythe. I forget his name. Oh well, I imagine a flame engulfing my whole body. "Nice job Natsu, now imagine all that into your hand." Slowly the flames start to gather into my right hand. Then before I know it the flames have become like a small campfire on my hand. "Nice, here grab the plate and try once more." With hesitation I reach for the plate and take it from Dranov's hand, claw, talons... whatever they are. I then go to place the plate above the fire but,  it slips and is dropped into my hand with the fire. I closed my eyes expecting another explosion to my surprise, nothing. I slowly open my eyes and see that my hand with the fire caught the plate. I also see that the plate hasn't gone kaboom. "I did it, do you see that Dranov!!!" "Yes I do Natsu but do you know what that means." I shake my head. "You are ready for the worm."

Sorry this one came out so late I've been busy lately.
