A Shocking Discovery

"You cheated!" It was Happy's voice which shook both Mira and Shun.

"I did not cheat!" Wilson replied in response, but Happy seemed to ignore it.

"You did it!" Happy seemed adamant as he declared that Wilson cheated in something.

Shun didn't know what the situation was, so he looked at Carla and asked her, "Umm… Carla, you mind explaining what happened here? Didn't you all go to a fishing spot near the river?"

Carla stood up with an irritated look, she glared at both Wilson and Happy, "We all did. However, these two made bets that whoever catches more fish wins. The loser will provide fish to the winner for an entire year."

"I see… And how come Happy said that Wilson cheated? Besides, how can he even cheat in a Fishing competition?"

It was Happy who answered Shun's question, "We were competing based on our fishing skills, but he just flew into the river and pulled out the fish. He wasn't supposed to fly and catch the fish."

"I never heard you mention that we must catch fish with that stupid rod. I swear all the fish hates me for some reason. Not a single one took a bite from my bait."

As Shun heard both their complaints, he did understand one thing. He would never understand how these cats were so set on fish. He was sure that Wilson would rather eat a poisoned fish than something other than fish.

He had no idea how to resolve their conflict, so he made the best decision. Left it as it was. He thought in his head 'They will probably resolve it soon enough…'

"Where's my imouto?"

Carla responded with a clear voice, "She is inside Natsu's room. Erza didn't like how Gray and Natsu were fighting, or as you like to call it, sparring. She beat the two of them to a pulp, the two of them don't have enough strength to stand."

"I see..."

"Natsu was in even worse shape than Gray since he kept standing up against Erza to get even with her. However, she beat him to the ground… Wendy thought it would be better to heal him first."

"That stupid-tin can. It seems that Erza hasn't learnt her lesson yet." It was Mira who said with a faint smile gracing her face.

Shun didn't seem bothered by that wicked smile on Mira's face, but Carla was a little scared. She had witnessed her fight against Erza in an open ground. If nothing else, she was sure they would reduce the half of the town to bits.

"Stay here, Mira. Let me go and meet up with Wendy. You can start preparing food for me." He nearly begged for that last sentence. Right now, he wished for nothing more than to eat her food.

The dark smile disappeared from Mira's face as she proceeded to move in the kitchen.

Shun walked to Natsu's room and opens the door. There he saw his little sister healing Natsu.

It seemed that Natsu was seriously injured after fighting against Erza.

"Imouto… Rest for some time. I will heal him."

Wendy was so concentrated she didn't even notice Shun entering through the door. She was so surprised to hear his voice that she stopped her healing.

"Shun Nii-chan, you are back!" She was thrilled as she gazed upon her big brother.

Shun decided to take it from that moment as Natsu's body was immediately enveloped in Azure Blue coloured flames.

The flames seemed to be healing Natsu's wounds rather quickly. At some point, as he was healing Natsu's body, Shun suddenly frowned as he thought 'What is that magic I am sensing from within Natsu? No… Not just one type of magic, these are two types of magic! One is just like mine, the Dragon Slayer Magic while, what is the other magic?'

To solve the mystery, he sent his magic even deeper within Natsu's body. It was where his magic was held. At that place, he sensed something even more suspicious…

He could feel it. The magic of something with the shape of a dragon. There was a severe look on Shun's face as he looked at Wendy, "Imouto, I am taking Natsu somewhere. You go and heal Gray. I hear he is also in a serious condition."

"Okay, Shun Nii-chan." Though curious why he said that, she did as she was told.

Shun immediately stopped healing Natsu with his Azure Flames and took him out of the house. He was carrying him far away to an empty field.

Mira had no idea that Shun had left. She didn't know why he left without saying a word to her. It worried her and started searching for him.

Wendy had little to no idea where he was going, so she wasn't of much help.

~~

In an empty field, far away from his house, Shun glared at Natsu. More specifically, the thing inside of Natsu's body and spoke out loud, "Come out now! I know you are inside Natsu's body!"

There was no response.

"Very well then… You leave me no choice then." His eyes coldly glowered as the Azure Flames overflowed from his body.

The magic power was so high that Gildarts and Makarov who were sitting in the Guildhall, sensed it even though they didn't possess sensing magic.

"That magic… It's Shun!" Gildarts exclaimed immediately, letting Makarov know about it.

Makarov was shocked at Gildarts' words. He had never really sensed Shun's magic. He just knew he was powerful from Gildart's words.

"That much magic power. It nearly eclipses my own! Just what happened? Why is he releasing so much magic!? Is he fighting someone strong!?"

"I dunno but I have a bad feeling about this. Master, let me go and see what's going on. I feel like something major would happen."

Gildarts seemed adamant in going over and helping Shun.

Makarov had little choice but to agree with Gildarts. The fact that Shun was releasing so much energy meant that either he was going overkill against someone weak or he was fighting someone really strong.

He didn't like any of the two options. He also thought it would be best to let Gildarts go and mediate in the situation.

Meanwhile, Shun raised his hand and pointed at Natsu's body. The Azure Flames lit up on Natsu's body.

Soon enough, they seeped into his body from the small pores and were reaching out for the existence in Natsu's body.

The intense Azure Flames didn't take long before they reached that existence. The existence which seemed to be sleeping was suddenly awake as it felt a burning sensation.

Its eyes opened up, and it looked at the nearby Azure Flames which lit upon its wings. Its body was completely red with the yellowish sclera and black slits as eyes.

The dragon raised its proud head and glanced at the Azure Flames and stared intensely. An orange fire seemed to appear over the Azure Flames, and both seemed to be in an intense contest before the Azure Flames finally disappeared.

This dragonic existence was none other than Igneel, the King of Fire Dragons!

Igneel looked really shocked that these Azure Flames had reached him to such deep levels within Natsu. And the fact that he was really threatened by these Azure Flames shocked him even further.

He tried to look outside of Natsu's body and saw it was Shun who had created those Azure Flames.

Just from the nature of those flames, Igneel was sure those were Dragon Flames.

He was dumbfounded to see that these Dragon Flames were released by a human. It was far too strong to be released by a Dragon Slayer at such a young age.

Meanwhile, Shun was also dumbfounded, it had been the first time someone had destroyed his flames. And he could feel it, that Dragon was also a Fire Dragon. It was possible he completely annihilated his flames!

"Come out now! I won't be so gentle next time! I want to see the face of the thing which is residing within Natsu's body!" Shun declared with more of his magic power spilling out of his body.
