10 minutes later, in a field on the Nishizumi estate:

No one's PoV:

"Ok, we're here, you can start now," Shiho said.

"Umm, can you give me some space as I surround myself in fire and it will get very hot?" He asked as he walked away from them.

"Oh, yes" Shiho said confusedly.

After getting what he deemed an acceptable distance Natsu charged up his magic which increased the pressure around him dramatically resulting in the ground cracking or melting and large chunks of molten debris rising into the air.

Maho stared in amazement, while she couldn't exactly see what he was doing due to the mile distance between them she could feel the heat and Natsu wasn't joking about things getting really hot, even at this distance she thought she was going to get burned. It was then the flames engulfed Natsu in a sphere of fire and for a minute Maho stared worryingly at the sphere as she had no idea of Natsu's resistance to flames. The flames were dispersed by a gust of wind revealing the same Scarlet dragon as what they saw on the day, they first met Natsu.

"So what do you think and you aren't afraid of me?" Natsu spoke up after transporting himself directly in front of them. Maho and the others could only stare in amazement at the large crimson dragon that was before them.

Maho and Miho just nodded in response before Miho started running circles around Natsu inspecting practically every inch of his transformation. "Wow you look so cool, my favourite stories that mummy reads to me all have dragons in them. I've always dreamed of seeing one"

"Well I'm glad that you're dream came true." Said Natsu. Natsu then reared up onto his hind legs and released a small torrent of fire from his mouth which then exploded in the air like a firework, as the embers floated down, glistening in the light. After several hours of the children playing with Natsu with Shiho watching, Natsu deactivated his dragon form which caused his wings to recede into his shoulder blades with the sickening breaking and cracking as they morphed back into the original bone followed by his crimson red scales dropping off as his body shrank to its original size before dissipating into thin air.

"So what do we do now then?" asked Natsu curiously "You can ask me more questions if you want to." He then said somewhat hesitantly.

"Okay, Okay." Said Miho while she thought of a question. After a minute she said, "How do you find love?" She asked innocently.

Natsu started blushing as he thought of what he could say to her. "Basically, I will have many mates, or as you call them wives or girlfriends, but if the one I have feelings for doesn't have the same feelings, then I would go into an emotionless state and would die soon after if my mate died, before being controlled by my anger towards whatever caused their death, and would go on a rampage until I either died from exhaustion or I find out that my mate was actually fine." He said as he spoke more and more quietly, before trailing off at the end as he kept glancing at Maho as she blushed while also taking glances at Natsu, but when they made eye contact they somehow blushed even harder than Shiho thought possible as we watched in amusement. Deciding to break the awkward silence, she cleared her throat, bringing everyone's attention to her.

Shiho said, "Now that we have that excitement out of the way, I do believe that it is time to get back, otherwise it will be dark by the time we get back and you will also miss your dinner." She said while looking at Miho; who saw her mother give a pointed glance towards her, as she blushed and mumbled incoherently.

Natsu's PoV:

'You know, I think I'm going to enjoy living here.' Natsu thought as he smiled his signature grin, as he noticed Maho blushing as she spotted his grin. "Hey, Maho, you've gone all red again, I hope that you're not catching a fever," Natsu said as he brought his face a few inches from her's. Maho just got redder and started stuttering in embarrassment. Natsu just got confused again.
