The Jadgdragon

Chapter 5: Becoming tankers

No one's PoV:

When Natsu awoke he was startled to realise that the weight on his chest was a sleeping Maho and Miho. Getting out of bed carefully so not to awaken the two sleeping girls, he walked into the bathroom for his morning shower. 10 minutes later he stepped out of the bathroom and quickly got dressed and walked out the door to head to breakfast, pausing slightly to write a short note to the girls. However before he could leave Maho awoke and started rubbing the sleep from her eyes, thinking about the pink haired dragon. However when she couldn't see said man she started to panic and call out frantically thinking she'd been left behind, "Natsu, Natsu where are you?" she shouted out in desperation before hearing the sound of a familiar voice,
"Jeez, what you shouting about I told you I'd be back for..." Natsu started but didn't get to finish before the young girl had wrapped herself around Natsu in an iron grip with tears running down her face.
"I'm sorry I though you were dead and I got scared." Maho spoke up in to a normal person's hearing was a barely audible tone, but then Natsu wasn't normal and his draconic hearing heard every word of it.

The way she said and the look of fear on her face tugged at Natsu's heart strings, he only knew the girl for little over a day now but he felt that he needed to take care of her and protect or at least give her a way to protect herself. He didn't know why he felt this way maybe it was because throughout his life he had taken it upon himself to help anyone that he met that was in need of it or maybe it was that he felt sympathy for the girl.

"It okay I'm not going anywhere, I'll take care of you" He said in a caring tone while placing a hand on her head causing the girl to look at him with disbelief,

"How can you promise that?!" she asked thinking she had misheard him with tears coming to her eyes.

"It doesn't matter, there is no way anyone can defeat a dragon," he said kindly.

Maho could only stare before burying her face in his chest and letting the tears flow, Natsu made no attempt to stop her as she obviously needed this so he just stroked her head reassuringly for the next five minutes until she was finished. "Better?" Natsu asked, "Yeah thanks" Maho answered her voice still a bit hoarse. "Good, go get changed and lets head down for breakfast, while I wake up Miho." Natsu said in an excited voice.

"Ok," Maho said before skipping off into the nearby bathroom.

He walked around to her side of the bed and gently shook her shoulders trying to get her to wake up. Miho just mumbled to herself and then rolled over onto her side all while staying asleep. He tried again but got the same response as before. Suddenly growing tired of the game that they were playing Natsu decided to just shout "MIHO, Wake up!"

Waking up with a start Miho gave a short scream that deafened the boy next to her.

After realising where she was, Miho calmed herself down and glanced to the side saw the pink head clutching his ears in pain. Widening her eyes at what she had done to her new brother she immediately apologised with tears coming into her eyes. "Oh my god, Natsu are you Ok?" She exclaimed in worry.

"I'm fine," he said, letting his ears recover. "It's time to get up, Miho." Said Natsu.

"Urgh, fine."She whined.

10 minutes later:

"Good morning children, I hope you all slept well." Said Shiho.

"Yes mummy!" Said Miho excitedly

"Yeah," said Maho quietly.

"Yeah I did as well," said a certain salmon haired dragon (Natsu).

"Good, good, Well after breakfast it is time that you were all introduced to tanks that you may use." Said Shiho with some amusement in her voice at seeing their reactions.
