Fairy Tail: The Fourth Master

"I don't know," Ultear replied as she once again set her eyes at Natsu, "probably travel around or something, trying to make amends for our sins."

"Is that so? If you like, you can join our guild!"

Ultear was pretty shocked by the offer, her eyes went wide as she stared at Natsu in a daze.

Wasn't she supposed to be his enemy? Wasn't he supposed to hate her, to hurt her, and make her pay? She knew that Natsu have forgiven her already, but to actually ask her this.

She don't know what to say, being invited to join the guild she and her guildmates attack and wanted to crush...

However, she just shook her head and give Natsu a smile, "I thank you for the offer Dragneel, but maybe next time. For now, I wanted to travel around, and do some things to, at very least, lessen the sins I've committed."

"Oh~" Natsu was a bit disappointed but he can understand her, so he just smile, "i see, then be careful i guess? Take care of yourself,"

Ultear noddded with a smile and walk away, but stop for a bit and faced Natsu once again, "Someday, if we meet again, perhaps, i will consider your offer."

Finished with her words, she and Meredy jumped from the rooftop and disappeared from Natsu's view.

Natsu glance at the place where they disappeared with a smile, "someday then, if you go back on your words, then i will have drag you back to the guild, the council can go f.u.c.k themselves."

He doesn't know why he said that, but he didn't think too much about it and glance at the black lacrima on his hands.

"Dragon slayers, Titan slayers, and now God slayers? I wonder what kind of slayer will appear next?" With a smile on his face, he glance at the night sky.

"Acnologia, I swear in the name of our guild, I will make you pay!" His eyes turned fierce and his dace revealed a wrathful expression.

Truly, the wrath of a dragon, the overlord of the sky, is not something that can be eased, especially if its the wrath of the son of the Fire Dragon King.

"I don't know how to fuse this lacrima in me, i guess I will have to ask that old lady from the woods." With a sigh, Natsu went down and began to walk towards his house.

...

Next day.

Natsu wanted to go the place where that old woman resides, but choose to first go to the guild and see how everyone is doing.

Happy was accompanying him, flying around beside him while eating his breakfast, or in cat's words, fish.

It took them a few minutes before theh arrived at the guild. Natsu glance at the large doors before taking a deep breath.

Honestly, he hoped that everything is just a dream and when he opened this door, the faces of his friend greeting him with a smile is what the first thing he would see.

Heck he would even cry out of happiness even if he was greeted by Gray mocking him that he already became an S-class before him.

He opened the doors and what greeted him is the gloomy and silent guild, he smiled sadly but quickly hide it by showing his usual 'grin'.

"Oh? Natsu! You're just in time, come here," Macao spotted Natsu the moment he entered the guild and quickly called him, "there is much more important thing we need to discuss."

Natsu was confused by still nodded and sat beside him, "so what's this about?" He asks.

Wakaba, a middle age man and a friend of Macao was the one that replied, "we were discussing about who should be the next guild master. The council has been pushing us to have one and he or she should immediately report to the council within a week, if not then they will really disband our guild."

Bisca, a green haired, beautiful woman with curvaceous body, angrily slammed his fist on the table, "Those greedy old bastards! They really wanted our guild to disband!"

"Calm down Bisca," Alzack, a gun mage and Bisca's partner said as she patted his partner's shoulder, "even though I hate to say this, but the council really have all the rights to disband our guild, we cannot function normally without a guild master, especially since we don't have any S-class wizards currently."

"That's right," Laki, a lavender haired girl said, "without our S-class mages, we cannot take any S-class quest, and without it, we cannot pay the ridiculous taxes to the council, we also need a lot of jewels to maintain our guild."

"You're right, and without a guild master, we cannot have an S-class trials and we also cannot accept any mission as it needed a guild master consent," Macao said, "now, who do you think should be the most appropriate to be our guild master?"

Everyone stopped what they are doing and stared at the certain person, even those who only listened at the sidelines also look at that the same person.

Natsu, who couldn't understand half of what they are talking about, was perplexed as he felt everyone looking at him.

He actually thought that he did something wrong, but he quickly denied it as he just sat and didn't even talk, how could he have done something wrong?

"Wh-What are you all looking at?"
