Light Work

The place was seemingly different from what Natsu was used to, after he'd gone through the interview with Masamichi Yaga, he was given a room and a uniform that fit his style, the sleeves were cut off, the trousers were a dark color black, the lower bands were white, though those changed he didn't give up his sandals and scarf. 

"Are you ready to meet your classmates?" Gojo asked, the two walked down a hallway. 

"Classmates? You mean guildmates" Natsu asked. 

"Yeah, they're gonna be your team for the time being though it's only 2" Gojo said. 

"How come there are two? I thought there would be more" Natsu said. 

"There should be, but when it comes to this job there isn't a certainty that you'll come out alive" Gojo said, as they come to a stop in front of a door to the outside of the building. 

"Hmmm, well this has been my life since I was born" Natsu thought, as Gojo opened the door to reveal two people there, one was a boy with black hair and the other was a girl with brown hair. 

"Oi sensei, who's this guy?" The guy asked. 

"Afternoon to you two, this is our new student and your classmate" Gojo said. 

"Name's Natsu, Natsu Dragneel" Natsu said. 

"Nice to meet you, my name is Nobara, Nobara Kugisaki" Nobara said, introducing herself and offering a hand, in which Natsu shakes her hand. 


"Same here" Natsu said. 

"My name's Megumi Fushiguro" Fushiguro said, as they shook hands. 


"Now that we now know each other, we have a mission not too far from here, let's go!" Gojo said, filled with energy though the others didn't seem like it. 

"He's going to throw us to the wolves" Nobara asked. 

"Definitely" Gojo said. 

"I wonder how the others are doing?" Natsu thought. 

Meanwhile within Fairy Tail…….

"What do you mean you can't find him?" Erza asked. 

"I can't, I looked everywhere but I can't seem to find him anywhere" Happy said, completely scared of Erza. 

Apparently since Natsu hadn't shown up yesterday it didn't mean much, but the next day he wasn't seen then it was seemingly problematic with him not being there, it seemingly tipped the balance of nature in a weird way and now Erza couldn't seemingly rest without finding him. 

"Erza calm down, maybe he went somewhere to clear his mind" Mira said. 

"He can clear that at home" Erza said. 

"C'mon, he went to 'clear his mind' if you know what I'm saying" Mira said. 

"Oh" Erza said. 

"Good, I'm sure he'll come back soon" Mira said. 

"But then again, what could've happened for him to travel" Lucy asked. 

"Maybe something personal" Gray said. 

"Anyways, it would be important to understand and give him his space, just hope that he will return" Makarov said, as everyone agrees to do so and go about their regular day without Natsu, well everyone except Erza. 

"Please be safe" Erza thought. 

Back to Natsu…….

The group of four had finally arrived at an apartment building, it seemed to look normal by most but apparently it was just a facade for a cursed spirit innate domain, after they were briefed and a "screen" was placed over the place, they all went in to confront the Special Grade cursed spirit. 

"I heard you came from far away, apparently you use magic" Nobara said. 

"Yeah, I use fire dragon slayer magic" Natsu said. 

"So you can kill dragons, how do you even learn such a thing?" Fushiguro asked. 

"One, you can learn from a dragon, like me, I learnt from Igneel the Fire Dragon King, or you can have a Lacrima with dragonslayer magic implanted in you, but you can't do the things that a first generation Dragon slayer can do" Natsu explained. 

"Understo-" Nobaro said, but paused when she saw that the door to the domain was gone. 

"Oi, there was a door, the door was there right? Where did it go?" Nobara said. 

"Yeah, don't worry we have him to sniff the exit out" Fushiguro said, referring to the white shikigami wolf, in which Nobara cheered and promised jerky, though Natsu just deadpanned. 

"Dragon slayer here, heightened sense, including a stronger than normal sense of smell, you didn't really need to use your cursed energy, though that is a good idea in case we get pulled apart……." Natsu said, walking ahead of the two in which they sweatdrop at him over analysing things, but then a creature appears in front of the dragonslayer and blocks his way. 


"T-that's the special grade cursed spirit" Fushiguro said, trembling with fear. 

"Natsu, watch out" Nobara said, as Natsu turned his back to the cursed spirit. 

"What is it?" Natsu asked. 

"S-Special grade cursed spirit" Nobara said. 

"Oh that" Natsu said, as Sukuna pops up. 

"I can feel my finger inside of him" Sukuna said. 

"Same, should I just rip it out or exorcise it?" Natsu asked, wanting to get this over with. 

"Rip it out" Sukuna said, a smile pulling on his face. 

"My pleasure" Natsu said, as the finger bearer raised it's hand to cut Natsu in half, but the dragonslayer reacted first using Black Flash and lugging his hand in it's chest. 

"Oh I'm sorry, but I think you have something that belongs to me" Natsu said, before ripping his hand and Sukuna's finger out, weakening the spirit greatly. 

"There, that's what happens when you steal, don't steal next time" Natsu said, before combining his magic and cursed energy into his fist. 

"Cursed Fire Dragon Black Fist" Natsu chanted, before punching the spirit into oblivion. 

"That is scary" Nobara said. 

"Who would've thought the person Gojo sensei brought was this brutal?" Fushiguro said, as Natsu then eats the finger. 

"Okay, that's just disgusting" Nobara said, as they then rushed to get out of the place. 

"So, how did it go?" Gojo asked. 

"Too quick" Natsu said. 

"Really, who killed it then?" Gojo asked. 

"Natsu did, then exorcised the spirit" Fushiguro answered. 

"Awww, I thought that would've been a good challenge" Gojo said. 

"You thought wrong" Natsu said, as they all headed out for dinner.
