Its been 14 years. So much has happened since these years. So many emotions. So much sorrow.
But I've had a short list of what goes on in my mind.
1) Find my Dragon Prince.
2) Find my dragon Caspian.
3) Kill 'Him'.
I've been traveling the world for about 8 years now. I've traveled to many places and very far. But my instincts told me that I was close to finding, him. The special person that's inside my heart. I've been traveling all over for him.
His smell was in the air and I knew I was getting closer. I couldn't wait to find him.
"Yoru. Lets fly down there. That's gotta be it!"
"You sure about this Taka?"
"Positive! Its faint, but hes somewhere in this giant city!"
"Great. The sooner we find him, the sooner we get a house."
"Yeah yeah. And maybe we can join a guild! I've always wanted to! Maybe we can find more Exceeds!"
"Maybe..."
"Lets go!" You started running down the steep hill.
"Don't! You'll hurt yourself!" Yoru swiftly caught your back and you both soared through the air. Onward. To Magnolia!
My name is Taka Kazami! 'Im just your average teenager. Im 14 years old... well, sort off. My life is kind of a strange story. Yoru and I landed on some roof and we both took a rest. We spotted an ice cream shop, and went down for some well deserved sweets. As we ate under the shade, I thought about my past. And all the things I went through to get here.
~~
When I was 2 years old, my parents, older sister, and my unborn baby brother were all murdered.
Some man came to my house and killed my family. He was looking for something called the 'Jewel of Wishes'. It has the power to grant any wish, but with certain prices. He discovered that my family was hiding it, so he decided to kill everyone. I was given a chance to escape.
But I remember him saying something to me before me allowed me to live. He wanted me to look for the Jewel, but he was blind to see the necklace around my neck. It was my Mother's. On the outside, there is a jewel, which is part of the silver locket I always wear.
After my family died, I hid in a cave near a giant lake and cried myself to sleep. In the morning I found out that this cave belonged to a Dragon! The dragon had mercy on me, and decided to take me in as his own.
He raised me. Taught me everything I know. His name was Caspian. What was really awesome about him, was the fact that he was a water dragon. Caspian. King of the seas. He would always talk about his best friend.
He was the exact opposite of Caspian, but they both were really close. He was a Fire dragon, and Caspian a dragon of water. Polar opposites, but still bonded by a strong friendship.
My 2 years with my Dragon Dad, were the best times of my life. But for me, good things dont really last for long. One day, Caspian disappeared. I couldn't find him anywhere. I was left all alone once again. Everyone that was dear to me had disappeared. I decided to look for Caspian.
I looked inside our cave, and I saw a backpack. I look in it, and I see everything that I posses in it. I see a note beside it and I hold it tightly in my hand. Tears pour down my eyes as I read the note.
"Taka. I'm sorry that I'm leaving you, but I must. I had to leave. You'll understand why I left, when you grow up. Use that smart mind that I molded to get out of here. I could sense that that man is coming closer. You must run away from here. This backpack is named an 'Infinity Backpack. It can carry so many things. I put everything that is yours in it.
"You must get away from here. I'll explain everything later when you're older. Go through the forest, and you'll find a whole vast plain. You'll find someone there. A young boy with Dragon Slaying Magic. This child is the son of Igneel. Stay with this boy. Until we meet again, my daughter."
Despite my crying, I took the backpack and ran as fast as I could. Past the trees, past the river, and past the forest. Till I eventually found a vast valley, just as Caspian had told me. I looked around but I couldnt see anyone. No young boy. Until across the valley, I saw a boy with cherry blossom hair. He was pouring his eyes out, just as I was a while ago. He was yelling out, calling a name that I had heard so many times.

Just like a dragon, he called out "IGNEEL!!!". The cry was sad. I ran up to him trying to hold myself up. The boy looked like he was around 7 or 8. He looked down at he, and his eyes widened. "Who are you?"
"Are you Natsu?"
"Yeah. And?"
"Caspian told me to find you. He went missing, so he wants me to find you..."
"Caspian? That's Igneel's best friend! If we find Caspian, we find Igneel!"
"If we find Igneel, we find Caspian!!" My wet eyes glissen. Natsu just gave off a face with determination written all over it. He took my hand and we both ran to a cave. Natsu left me and ran inside. While Natsu was getting ready, I reassembled my pigtails.
The boy came back, ready for action. He grabbed my hand, and we both started walking off. Those years were the best years of my life. The best chapter of my life. It only lasted 2 years, but they were pure bliss for me. I grew attached to Natsu.
