"Father. Tell us a story!" A salmon haired girl with chocolate brown eyes demanded. Her brother, Gray agreed.
"Yes Father! Tell us a story about you and mother!" Gray added, his blonde hair swaying infront of his pitch black eyes in a mocking way.
He quickly brushed his bangs back in place, and stared at his father with a glint of happiness in his eyes.
Their Father, of age 29, chuckled.
"Well, aren't you mischief makers supposed to be asleep? Okay then. Just one....

There once was a boy named Natsu, who was of age 5. Natsu was a fire wizard with the power of a dragon.
He was very selfish, and acted as of everything was lower than him. He didn't like anything; and he much less believed in love. He thought that humans were spoiled, and obnoxious.
The wizard stole precious things that belonged to others, to make them realize that he could take away anything that was precious to them without a regret. He was infamous for many and many things.
One day, he came across the lake side of a beautiful building. There were young wizards playing there too. Natsu, angry because he was not the first to claim the land, stomped towards them and began yelling.
"Fools!" He roared. "How dare you play on property that should be MINE."
The youngsters stared at him, astonished that such a young little boy could be so rude, and try to act mature. A little girl with blonde hair sucked up courage and confronted him.
"What do you mean, Mr?" She asked. Natsu stared at her with rage in his pitch black eyes.
"This lake side and land should be mine!" He snapped at her, not caring if he hurt her feelings.
"Now now. What's going on?" A voice asked from the direction of the building.
"Master!" The other youngsters exclaimed in joy running towards the little man.
"Master? What a lot of fools. Who would follow some weakling! Just look at him! He doesn't even deserve to be called master!" Natsu laughed bitterly. The younglings gasped, and stared at Natsu in dissaproval. The so called Master looked at him, and replied.
"No. You are wrong. I am indeed powerful, young one. I just don't like showing it."
"Why? If your so powerful why lock it away! That's stupid. Who would do that? You could rule the world if you're powerful!" Natsu stated, absolutely outraged. The old man smiled.
"Young one. Have you ever heard of something called family?" The man asked. Natsu, having been an orphan after his mother's death giving birth to him and his father leaving before he was born, looked at the man confused, and shook his head.
"Family... are the people that stick together with you...they protect you, and they help you when needed. Family are people that love y-"
"LOVE IS NOTHING! LOVE DOES NOT EXIST!" The boy shrieked interrupting the man. "LOVE DOESN'T GIVE YOU ANYTHING! IT JUST GIVES YOU PAIN, PAIN, PAIN!!!!"
"Ah young one. That is where you are wrong. Love gives you STRENGTH. Not pain," The wise one corrected. So- "
"Father, what does that story have to do with you and mother?"The two children asked.
"Because that little blonde girl was me." The wife said from the doorway, walking into the room. The children gasped, and ran out of the room.
"WE WEREN'T AWAKE!!!" They chanted, shutting the room door with a slam.
"Dang, Luce. You scare 'em," The husband laughed. Lucy snickered, and joined him in bed.
"Hm...telling them that one, huh Natsu?" She smiled. Natsu grinned and nodded.
"Well.....that was when Natsu Dragneel was born, and when Natsu died."
Lucy sighed, resting her head on his shoulder.
"I still remember the ending," She stated.
"The one where I pulled you in the lake after you pushed me in it for yelling at Master?" He grinned. The wife blushed, and smacked Natsu with a pillow.
"Not that one...The one when we became friends."
Natsu smiled, and finished the story.
"- So later that day. Natsu was accepted to learn the way of Fairy Tail life. He made friends with the other people there. Natsu grew soft, and then .......Natsu Dragneel was born. He made friends with the blonde girl who was apparently called Lucy. Though he called her Luce.
At the end of the day, Lucy pushed him into the lake yelling about him yelling at Master. Natsu mischieviously wrapped an arm around her arms that were by her sides, and pulled her in as well. With a scream she fell in the lake also."
