THE DRAGON'S FURY

ZERTON THE MIGHTY WANDERER

THIRD POV
"Finally!! We made. it. out!!" Natsu shouts, gazing up at the hot sun. "Its hot..." Happy complains. "At least we're out now" Natsu says grinning.

Suddenly, they heard something rustling behind the bushes. They stared at it for minutes until someone came out. It was a man who just got out of the forest.

"My hello there fellow... escapers of the forest?" he exclaimed, Natsu looking at him with a raised eyebrow. "Oh my apologies, my name is Zerton. Zerton the Mighty Wanderer" he introduced.

He's clothes were shaggy and his hair was a complete mess. "Okkk... I'm Natsu, and this is Happy, my great buddy" he introduced. "Natsu?? Natsu the salamader??! My goodness! What a pleasant surprise!!" he smiled.

"May I ask you what are you doing here outside Magnolia?" he asks. "We're searching for someone" Natsu answers. "And... who might that be??" he asks, expectant.

"Zeref, you know him right??" Natsu answers. Zerton was surprised. Natsu Dragneel, the salamander, was looking for the great Immortal Black Mage, Zeref. He smirked.

"Yes, yes. I know him. He is the Immortal Black Mage, Zeref" Zerton smiles. "Yep, that's him" Natsu says. "He is somewhere far far away from you, young lad. Tut tut..." Zerton sighs.

"Wait.. You know where he is??" Natsu asks. "Of course! Didn't I tell you? I'm Zerton, the Mighty Wanderer!" he exclaims. "Awesome!! Hey Happy we have someone who knows where he is! This is easy!!" Natsu beams. "Aye sir!"

"Now then, to our great adventure we go! My fellow Mighty Wanderers!" Zerton grins. "Aye sir!!" the duo salutes, following the so called Mighty Wanderer, Zerton.

The sky was beginning to darken as it was time for the sun to go down. "Hey Zertony guy, the sky's darkening" Natsu says pointing at the sky. "It's Zerton and yes it is. We're near the forest, let's go there and make camp" Zerton says as they nod.

Arriving at their destination, they put down their belongings. "I'll go and get some firewoods" Zerton suggests. "Then I'll go and catch some foods. Happy you stay here and take guard" Natsu says. "Aye sir!"

The duo then went on their separate ways. After minutes of walking, Natsu finally spots a river near him. He runs towards the running waters as he kneels down to catch some fish.

"I should drink first" Natsu says, gulping down the fresh clear water. After washing his face, he stared at the river. Suddenly, he saw someone, it was the same face as him but with horns and stuff.

It was the same as when he transformed back in Magnolia. He instinctively touched his head to feel no horns. He again, once more, stared at the river to see him back to normal again.

He was starting to question what just happened. He shakes his head and focused on catching foods for the three of them.

Zerton returned and set up the woods for their camp. Minutes later and Natsu returned with fishes in his arms. "Fish!!" Happy beams, flying towards him.

"Let's roast them first" Natsu grins, patting his buddy's head. "Aye sir!!"
