Making Him Ours

Natsu' s homecoming

Erza p.o.v.

Me, and Lucy were hugging Natsu when all the sudden he went limp. We saw him breathing heavily, and covered in sweat. Me, and Lucy then noticed a pool of blood underneath him we lifted his shirt to that there were several bleeding wounds. We took him to Wendy she said " he should be fine for now, but keep an eye on him I have a feeling this is recoil damage from using the dragon devil god slayer king mode." Me, and Lucy looked at each other, and decided she watches him during the day, and I watch at night. We both thought why use that power if this is the price you pay for using it. We then thought might have been the only way to beat the dragon gods quickly before they destroyed Crocus. As we watched him for two months he slowly got better, and was able to move around just fine. We asked him about the powers recoil damage. He said " if I use it for thirty minutes it isn't fatal, but it will do damage like what I had." We asked him what would happen if he used it longer. He said " my body would rip itself to shreds from the inside out." Me, and Lucy shuddered at the thought.

Lucy p.o.v.

We then heard a knock at the door. Natsu opened the door, and immediately hugged the person on the other side. He told us it was his family butler Mard Geer. " Mard Geer told Natsu it is time to visit the family home, and reclaim some things of his. We followed Natsu, and Mard Geer to his estate, and it was huge even bigger than my families estate. We then went inside, and went to the living room. Me, and Erza looked up, and saw the family portrait over the fireplace. Natsu looked at it, and gave us a sad smile saying " those were happier times." We asked him when it was done. He said " it was done the day my family was murdered, and I was kidnapped." We both apologized to him for digging up that memory, but he said it was alright. So Mard showed us to Natsu's room there we saw a sword, and guns on the wall he took a big claymore sword, and a white, and black pistol. He put the sword on his back, and put the guns in his holsters he grabbed before he picked out the weapons. He then went, and grabbed, another weird looking sword, and fused it with the sword on his back making them both disappear. He then put his left arm out, and then there appeared the fusion of the two swords. After that we went to his parent's room, and then he stopped turned towards us, and said " you girls might hate me after I tell you more about myself." We both looked at him, and said talk he told us. "My father was a devil, while my mother was human. My dad took down the cruel ruler of hell, and stopped him from releasing demons upon the human world. His powers however were sealed away as a result his real name was Sparda, and when he got sent to this world after stopping hells invasion he fell in love with my mother. My brother actually survived that day, but he only has evil in heart since he embraced being a devil. While I shunned that part of me. So now if I want to save the world again I'm left with no choice, but to kill him. I tried reasoning with him, but he isn't changing his ways just like Igneel's son." Me, and Erza were in shock after that revelation we looked at him with pity, and ran up, and hugged him, because when he mentioned his brother he broke down crying." We could never hate you." We said to Natsu.

Natsu p.o.v.

I'm glad they don't hate me. What I didn't tell them though was that my brother was Zeref Dragneel. We left Mard Geer, my house, and went back to Lucy's home with Erza on my right arm, and Lucy on my left arm. We walked to the house, and when we got there to her house there was my brother looking like the devil he turned himself into. I motioned for the girls to stay behind me summoned my sword, and took a fighting stance. He then disappeared I was then sucked into he'll with the girls. They were inside a barrier I put up to keep them safe I looked around, and saw my brother. He said " it has been a while brother ready to die." He said in a serious tone just then an army of devils appeared I cut threw them all, but then I felt a stabbing pain all over my body. I looked down, and saw swords stabbed into me all over I looked at my brother who was smirking a devilish grin. I looked over to the girls who were looking at me in terrified worry. I started fighting my brother even though I was on the verge of passing out. Each blow with him caused our blood to splatter all over the place. I saw an opening, and cleaved him clean in half. I looked at his dead body, and said " I'm sorry brother Zeref that it had to come to this." I teleported me, and the girls back to earth, but then as I looked at them everything went black.

Lucy p.o.v.

Me, and Erza rushed Natsu to Wendy, and Makarov's medical friend. They said we got him there just in time to save him, but the blood loss put him into a coma. We looked at each other then at Natsu. It took a year before he woke up. He looked at us, but his eye seemed dull, and lifeless. He smiled, but we could tell it was a forced one. We asked him to tell us what happened while he was out. He said " it was my worst nightmare stuck on repeat it kept playing, and playing until the moment I woke up." We asked what his worst nightmare was he said " losing everyone I love again, or having to kill them to save the world." Me, and Erza rushed to him, and hugged him we're here we told him. He smiled his usual grin, and his eye was bright, and full of life again. When he went to sleep he would wake up in a cold sweat, and screaming. He hasn't slept at all in the past month. He says he is fine, but Erza, and me know he isn't. He puts a facade that he isn't hurting at all, but we can see the pain, and sorrow in his eye. We went to Wendy, and told her what Natsu was going through, and she said those swords that stabbed him were cursed the victim to relive their worst nightmare any time they sleep. The only cure was to kill the person who threw the swords into him. We both looked at him, and he was in rough shape the wounds weren't healing cause he wasn't sleeping. He thought about who it could be then he said " Acnologia." With hatred seeping off every lettering made us shudder to hear him say it that way. Then his eye turned from onyx to blood red with a reptile slit for a pupil. He got up grabbed his guns holstered them, and left the room. Me, and Erza went after him. He was a few feet ahead of us when he summoned his sword, and shouted " come out Acnologia I know you're here." Then down came Acnologia landed in front of Natsu, and said " how does it feel for me to kill your parents, turned your brother against you, and killed Igneel. Me, and Erza both looked at him, and asked why. He said " just because I could make you suffer nephew." with that Natsu lunged at Acnologia with unmatched fury, and rage. Him, and Acnologia were trading blows blood splattering all over the place mainly Acnologia's, but Natsu looked on the verge of passing out from blood loss. Me, and Erza looked at each other, and joined in helping Natsu. We beat Acnologia, and then Natsu delivered the final blow. " Sorry dad I couldn't keep my promise." Before falling to the ground in a heap. We rushed to him, and headed to Wendy. She healed him up, and said " there he is healed physically, but mentally the damage is severe. I peaked into his mind it not a pretty picture the torture was the worst. Each time they used weapons that were designed to kill him specifically, or cause intense pain that will never go away. They did the latter in very painful spots." We asked Wendy how old Natsu was she said " 424, but physically 24. While he was tortured he was kept in room that is equipped with magic that meant time didn't flow in there he was tortured in there for 400 years." We looked at each other in shock. Shocked that Natsu is still mostly normal besides not letting us have any nighttime fun with him. Now we understand why he is so cagey around women. Since it was only women that tortured him. He woke up, but his eye was no longer blood red, but back to onyx. He said " are you girls okay" we both nodded "yes" he sighed in relief.
