Dragon King

Chapter:5 Natu's Nightmare

2:42 a.m
Lucy and Natsu are both sound asleep. The entire house is dead silent. Not a single sound can be heard around the entire home, only the wind from the outside can be heard as the wind moves the trees.
2:59 a.m
A light begins to shine, slightly causing Lucy to wake up.

Lucy: Natsu....

Natsu:.....zzzzz

Lucy: Natsu.....Natsu wake up turn off the light you left on please.

After a couple more tries Lucy finally realizes that Natsu is sound asleep and nothing can wake him up. So she decides to get up herself and check where the light source is coming from. Lucy gets up from bed and looks towards the light realizing where the light source is coming from she quickly gets up and checks her celestial keys. She notices that the key to the water bearer is the one admitting this light. So Lucy pulls out Aquarius's key and she reveals herself to Lucy.

Lucy: Aquarius?
Aquarius now appears in front of Lucy, who is confused on why she's here and not in celestial world.

Lucy: Is something wrong Aquarius?

Aquarius: you don't even bother to greet your self to me anymore? Rude brat.

Lucy: I'm sorry I'm just surprised to see you here. You usually don't do this unless it's something really important.

Aquarius looks towards the bed and back at Lucy.

Aquarius: so you finally got your self a boyfriend huh?

Lucy blushes and immediately denies it.
Lucy: no no it's nothing like that Natsu and I just patched things up, and besides he offered me to stay over to sleep here because it was already too late for me to head home. So I accepted his offer.

Aquarius: that's Natsu??!!!!
Lucy gives a confused look at Aquarius.

Lucy: yeah s....
Before she can even finish her sentence Aquarius pulls Lucy closer to her.

Aquarius: we need to talk! Now.
She pulls Lucy towards the balcony located outside Natsu's room and now both of them are outside leaving the glass door behind them slightly open.

Lucy: Aquarius what's going on? Why did you pull me away from the room?

Aquarius: we need to talk about him.
She points at Natsu. Lucy now has an idea as to why her closet friend Aquarius wants to talk about her dragon but she will let her explain herself.

Lucy: okay spill it out then what's so important that you needed to drag me out here to speak.

Aquarius: I came to tell you that the rest of the celestial spirits including the celestial spirit king have decided that you shouldn't be around him. He's a danger to you and to the rest of the magic world.

Lucy: what?! The hell so you mean by that?

Aquarius: you know of Natsu's other power right?

Lucy: Yeah. What about it?!

Aquarius: you need to keep away from him. He is unstoppable. He could hurt you.

Lucy: what?!! No! I'm not going to turn my back on Natsu! Not after everything we've been through. Ever since we were little kids he was always there for me....when mom past away..he was the first one to check up on me and make me feel better, because he knew how it felt to loose a parent. He lost both of his and was left to fend off this cruel world by himself while taking care of his little sister and keep his family's royal name in check! Not to mention the incident that occurred all those years back...That devastated him...I should know! I heard it in his voice when he apologize to me today! Which he shouldn't have because it wasn't his fault in the first place. And after all that you want me to turn my back on him and run away??! Well you better go back to the spirit world because I'm not having it!
