Over the next week Lucy enjoyed her stay in the North, and enjoyed the first steps of raising her daughter, but she did miss home. And she as soon as Levy and Yukino left she missed them too.

But what she missed the most was her husband and Luke. She wrote to him everyday, and always left a message that could be relied to Luke, but seeing them was a different story, and she was hoping that he could see his sister a bit more.

Dear Natsu,

How's Luke doing? Nashi's doing fine as always, and she's so precious. I wish you could see her everyday like I do, but I understand our circumstances. Anna wrote me saying you visited Zeref with Luke this week, and I hope everything went well.

Also, something big happened with Nashi when we first arrived so, we'll actually I'll tell you when you arrive. I love you, and I hope to hear back from you soon.

With Love, your wife Lucy.

Lucy sighs as she finishes up another letter to send to Natsu, and looks over to her smiling and wide awake daughter.

"We should head downstairs, shouldn't we Nashi?" She Says to the girl as she picks her up.

***********

From the day Lucy left to the north, Natsu wasn't doing well, and the only reason he kept his composure was because Luke needed him.

There were constant times where Luke wanted to see his mom and little sister, and it pained him to deny him, but this was Zeref's game, and he had to play it.

"Luke, before visit your Uncle Zeref, we have to explain some things." Says Natsu.

Luke looks at his father intently realizing he was serious. For a five year old, Luke was smart. He knew who how to read the mood.

"Around Your Uncle Zeref, your mother and Nashi are dead, not in real life, but around him they are." Luke nods, slightly confused but he decided he'd just do as he says.

"You shouldn't talk about them in front of him at all, it'll keep them safe." "I won't daddy I promise." Says Luke holding onto his hand.

"It's nice to see you again little brother. Glad to see you've came around." Speaks Zeref. Natsu nods. "Wait out here Luke, this won't be long." Says Natsu and Luke nods.

Natsu heads into Zeref's study and closes the door.

"I'm sorry for the big deal I've made...and I finally realise why you've done all this for me. I've been blind, and after thinking about, I thank you." Says Natsu, and it took a hell of a lot to say that to him.

"Glad to see you've realized your fate. Your King of her Kingdom now, and I bet it feels so much better than before, being tied down to that stupid blonde." Speaks Zeref, And Natsu tries hard to fight the urge to punch him.

"Well, I'll be heading back now if we're done here." Says Natsu walking out the room.

I can't stand to be here anymore.
