The Dragon's Light

HURRY UP

"You think so?" Happy asks, Natsu lost in his thoughts. "Natsu??" Happy asks, landing on his friend's head. "Oh sorry, what was that?" Natsu asks, snapping from his thoughts.

"I'm hungry... Can we eat lunch first??" Happy whines. "I'll treat you to delicious treats when we receive our reward. For now... let's hurry up and cure that lady before it's too late" Natsu sighs, patting the pouting Happy.

"Ok..." Happy agrees, Natsu softly smiling as the duo stop at nearby foodstore to buy the stocks they'll be needing for their journey.

"Natsu, we can always take the train" Happy exclaims, Natsu looking away. "No, we fly. Whether you like it or not" Natsu answers. "What?! But... but..." Happy whines. "If we fly, I'll catch you a very big fish, and raw one at that" Natsu suggests.

"Guh... Fish... we'll fly!!" Happy answers, sobbing. "Geez... Don't cry..." Natsu sighing, hugging his crying fluffy friend. "Come on, let's go" Natsu softly smiles at his friend.

Staring, Happy was still sad that he couldn't see the spark in his friend's eyes. Natsu's eyes were dead. No light, no spark and no hope. "Better catch me a big fish..." he mutter answered.

"I will..." Natsu answers. "It better be delicious..." Happy sniffles, carrying Natsu as he flies his friend. "Don't worry... I will"

Hours passed by and Natsu could feel Happy slowly fly down the ground. "Let's drop down for today" Natsu exclaims, Happy nodding as he gently lands his friend down the ground.

Catching his friend in his arms, Happy could feel himself going into deep slumber. "Thank you" Natsu thanks, as he continues their journey, this time on foot.

Hours later, Natsu stopped as he looks up. Noticing a familiar mountain before him, he knew it was the very mountain his client was talking about.

'It's still far nighttime' Natsu thought, looking left and right only to see trees and bushes. Going towards a nearby tree, he gently put down his friend against the tree.

Putting all their stuffs down, Natsu pats his friend's head before standing up to go somewhere.

"Mhm..." Happy groaned, rubbing his sleepy eyes as he slowly opens them. Looking around, he noticed he was somewhere unfamiliar. "Natsu?" he mumbles, then looking at their things laid beside him.

"You're finally awake" he turned around to see his friend carrying a big fish, as he stated. "Fish!" he perked up, running towards his arriving friend.

"I also brought us something to drink from the river" Natsu exclaims, sitting on the grass. "It's sunset?" Happy asks, looking up the orange red sky, with the chirping birds and setting sun.

"Yep, and also I made us camp fire. We're going to the mountain at night so we eat dinner first" Natsu says, putting down the fruits he picked up on the way.

"Fish!! Thank you Natsu!!" Natsu grinned, Natsu patting his head. "Better fill ourselves up for energy" Natsu says taking a part on the big fish as he roasts that part himself.

"Yummy..."
