I will Stay by Your side

The Terrifying Day

So far, Natsu and Lucy have found out that Peter, the boy whom was once good friends with Natsu, turns out to be the beast Mr. Bubble have ordered to destroy. With Peter's power overly too powerful, how will Natsu beat Peter with feelings from the past and powers that no one has ever known. 

The trembling feel crawled up to Natsu's mind. Lucy would die from blood lost and with none of her power to protect her from healing faster. Natsu needed to think of something quick. 

"So Natsu. Are you ready?" Peter questioned as he slowly pulled out his sword that had the strong smell of poison. 

"I'm always ready." Natsu replied back pounding his fist together to expose flames. But Natsu wasn't ready. He needed to take Lucy somewhere to get cured. If only Wendy was here. Natsu's teeth trembled in fear yet he needed to stand strong. Peter, without notice, came forth. Natsu snapped out of his thoughts and fasten his dodge from the poison sword. 

"Nice reaction." Peter commented. Natsu grinned and quickly turned himself back around to face Peter. 

"Dragon breathe fire." Natsu shouted and fire came out of his mouth full of flames. Peter dodged his flames but his cape had a too slow of a reaction that it got a speck of flame. It sizzled causing Peter to grow more anger. He smirked and attacked again. Natsu having nothing related to metal, kept on dodging his sword. With one touch of that sword, he would be in big trouble. The fast movement that Peter has loses Natsu's focus on where to hit him but Peter got his chance and strike Natsu onto his chest. Natsu retreated and felt a sharp pain tickling through his body. It was a strike hit.  

"What's the matter Natsu? I thought you were always the strong person who would bet up people for their friends." 

"Oh, you just wait Peter. I'll come at you." Natsu chuckled as he looked over at Lucy. She was getting worse. Blood ended up spilling onto the green grass that now turned dark red. Lucy, still looking very tried, looked around with her eyes halfway closed and her left hand still held onto her back head. 

"Tsk." Natsu whispered. He looked at Peter with eyes of anger. 

"I won't forgive you!" Natsu spoke. Peter couldn't help but laugh.

"This is it! This face makes me feel so happy. Show me more!" Peter went on attack. Swinging his sword straight at Natsu. But Natsu vanished and appeared just behind Peter. Surprised looking face on Peter, he turned his head behind him. A punch was made from Natsu's fist. Peter felll and his sword went into the brushes. Natsu landed on his feet and walked forth to Peter picking him up with the strength of one of his hand. 

"Don't mess with me Peter." Natsu warned. "Give Lucy back her power." He added. Peter swallowed finally in fear and answered with his words broken into pieces from the hard hit. 

"I-I c-can't d-d-do th-that....once th-e power that I have taking fr-from...i-it can-not be re-returned." He finished and fainted within Natsu's hands. Natsu placed him down and searched Peter's pockets for the necklace. It shined within his black pockets. Just before Natsu reached inside the pocket, he was stopped by the hand of Peter's. Natsu looked into his eyes. Peter spoke with the last of his strength. 

"I take people's souls, power, and strength to accomplish one thing. To see you once last time." Natsu was confused but ignored it but Peter tighten his grip, making Natsu finish his speech. Natsu listened but still had Peter's hand gripped tightly onto Natsu's wrist. 

"I left you on that day because I was noticed that I had to move. My parents was murdered the day after I had visited you last time. So I was ordered to move with my grandparents who was far from where you were. That day, I wanted to just stay with you but I couldn't. As we took off to where my grandparents were, our carriage was being attacked by some thieves and killed the carriage rider and I that was in it." Peter took in a deep breathe for he having a hard time. Natsu was in shock but kept quiet until the end. Peter started up again.
