Team Natsu and Drake have arrived at the town which is near the sea. 

Wendy: Are you sure this is the place? 

Drake: The flyer did say that we'd be going to a town near the sea, so I guess this is it. 

Gray: So let me get this straight, our job is just to find a strong water demon?

Erza: That's right. 

Happy: (flew next to Natsu) Seems a little over-kill, don't you think?

Natsu: What do you mean?

Happy: He's paying us so many jewels just to kill some demon? I'm mean sure it's an S-Class quest, but anyone could do it.

Drake: Well the client also said when people came here to do fishing or swimming. Until recently, this water demon started terrorizing the town. Many of them didn't return from the seas, and the ones that did, never wanted to set foot on this place again.

Lucy: Hold on! You didn't say that!

Drake: Didn't wanna spoil the party.

Natsu: Ah yeah! Hey water demon! Come and out and fight me!

Gray: (rolled his eyes sarcastically) Yeah, sure just call em out, I'm sure they're just eager to fight you.

Drake:  I got a question. Why do you like fighting so much? I mean, I love a good brawl as much as the next guy, but you pick fights like your life depends on it.

Natsu: I gotta fight so I can get stronger. I'm doing this to make Igneel proud of me.

Drake: Igneel?

Happy: Igneel's the name of the Fire dragon that raised Natsu and taught him his Dragon Slayer magic. 

Wendy: He's right. I was also raised by the Sky dragon named Grandeeney, and she taught me Dragon Slayer Magic too. 

Carla: And Gajeel was by the Iron dragon, Metallicana. 

Natsu: I've been looking for him until I've met Igneel. I've been looking for fourteen years.

Drake: (surprised) Seven years?

Natsu: Yeah, he vanished fourteen years ago, along with Gajeel's dragon Metallica, Wendy's dragon Grandeeney, Sting's dragon Weisslogia, and Rouge's dragon Skiadrum.

Drake: Hold on, all five dragons disappeared fourteen years ago?

Natsu: Yeah, on the same day; July 7, X777.

Natsu held his scarf that was given to him by Igneel.

Drake: Vanished on the same day? Sounds like you had a real mystery on your hands. 

Wendy: We've met our dragons a year ago, they were insides us the whole time. 

Happy: The dragons were dead, however, they were killed by Acnologia.

Drake: I'm sorry to hear boy that. 

Natsu: It's okay, we've managed to defeat Acnologia six months ago after the war with Alvarez was over. 

Drake: I'm sure Igneel was proud. When I was little, my old man said he knew a few dragons. 

This earned surprised expressions from everyone present.

Wendy: Your dad knew a few dragons?! 

Natsu: No way!

Gray: Really?!

Happy: Wow!

Carla: Unbelievable! 

Lucy: Are you serious?!

Drake: Yep. Though I've never seen a dragon myself, just pictures.

Natsu: So where's your dad? I want to if he knows Igneel.

Drake: He died a long time ago.

This earned somber expressions from everyone.

Happy: I'm sorry to hear that.

Drake: (inhaled deeply for a little bit) Forget it, let's just keep going.

Natsu took a few whiffs of the air and a huge grin formed on his face. 

Natsu: Hey guys! I got its scent! 

Lucy: Really?

Natsu: Yeah, it's gotta be it!

Drake: Man, you've got a nose that could put demons to shame.

Natsu: All I know is that we found em! Let's move!

Natsu ran at near-super-human speed, leaving behind a trail of dust. Drake, Wendy, Erza, Gray, and Lucy all sweat dropped.

Drake: Well, he's certainly enthusiastic.

Happy: That's Natsu for ya!

Gray: (sighed) Always running on without a thought in his head.

Lucy: Sometimes I worry about his mental health.

The group followed Natsu till they've reached the harbor of the town where Natsu is. 

Wendy: (sniffed) It's around here somewhere. 

Erza: Stay sharp. 

Suddenly, something emerges from the water which made everyone looked around. They saw a large blue demon, with features reminiscent of jellyfish, snakes, and octopii, and she has four large tentacles. 

Carla: That must be the water demon! 

Drake: Well what do you know? Looks like we hit the jackpot.

Lucy: Jackpot?! We got a massive demon with four large tentacles! How is that a jackpot?!

Gray: He's right.

Lucy had a surprise look.

Gray: That demon is S-Class worth a lot more money. 

Drake: Bingo. This demon is a Jokatgulm, (draws Rebellion) let's give it our all. 

Gray: Looks like we're gonna get quite a workout.

Gray put his hand to his palm and icy wind was coming from it.

Natsu: (engulfed both his fists on fire) Aw yeah, I'm all fired up now!

Happy: Aye!

Erza: (requips her Lightning Empress armor) Prepare to attack! 

https://youtu.be/BWwFaBWOBTM

Jokatgulm screams as she uses her tentacles to attack which everyone dodged. 

Natsu: Fire Dragon Brilliant Flame! 

Natsu launched a huge fireball at Jokatgulm, but she generates a magical shield to protect her body from the attack. 

Natsu: What the-?! (gets smacked by her tentacle) 

Wendy: It's been protected by a magic shield! 

Gray: Ice-Make: Saucer!

Gray creates and launches a giant spinning ice disk at Jokatgulm, but the magical shield protects her from that attack too. 

Erza: Try protecting this! 

Erza attacks with lightning using her weapon, but Jokatgulm dodges it and the lightning went towards Natsu and Gray. 

Gray: Uh oh!

Natsu: What the heck?! 

The lightning hits Natsu and Gray, shocking them. 

Erza: Idiots! Don't you know how to dodge?!

Gray: (weakly) Yeah, of course!

Natsu: But it came in so fast! 

Jokatgulm attacks Erza with her tentacles, but Erza shields herself by making a lightning shield. Lucy notices the magical shield was covering her body, but not her belly. 

Lucy: That's it! Star Dress: Sagittarius Mode! 

Lucy's outfit changed into a twin-tailed coat and sleeves that leave the shoulders and upper back bare. A pair of dark thigh-high boots with light trim at the top, which split above the knees to reveal the front of the thighs, are also donned. The hair is styled into a typical ponytail with two bangs framing the face. In addition, Sagittarius's zodiac sign is located on the left shoulder. 

Drake: (surprised) Her outfit changed? 

Lucy: (aims her bow at the belly) Star Shot!

Lucy fires a series of homing arrows which explode upon contact with the belly, Jokatgulm screams in pain as the magical shield disappears. 

Lucy: Guys, the belly is its weak spot! 

Drake: (smile) Thanks for the heads-up!

Drake slashes and cuts off two tentacles, while Gray grabs third one and freezes it. Erza unleashes her lightning attack while Natsu gave Jokatgulm a firing fist in the face. 

Jokatgulm summons her dome which fling the four away as she regrows her tentacles and spew out a poisonous gas. 

Carla: Careful, it's spewing poisonous gas! 

Wendy: I'll handle it! Sky Dragon Wing Attack!

Wendy threw her arms out and whirlwind of air from her arms to blow away the gas. Jokatgulm focuses her attention at Wendy as she tries to whack her with her tentacle. However, Drake pushed Wendy as he take the attack for her and fall into the ocean.

Team Natsu: Drake! 

The Devil Hunter was sinking into the ocean, he was feeling angry as he started glowing red before his whole body changed. 

Meanwhile Natsu, Gray, and Erza looked angry at Jokatgulm. 

Natsu: Damn you!

Gray: You're gonna pay for that! 

Erza: We'll take your life! 

Before they could do anything, Jokatgulm was grabbed by one of her tentacles and suddenly dragged into the water which surprised the wizards. 

Natsu: (confused) What the heck?

Lucy: Uh, what just happened? 

In the water, Jokatgulm looked and saw Drkae's shadowy, red glowing demon that pulled her in. He pulled out Rebellion and used it to slice Jokatglum into pieces. 

Drake's demonic form deactivates as he try to get on land, but then he saw a flash of light. What made Drake widen his eyes  as he saw an woman unconscious in the water. 

Back at the surface, the wizards walked the edge of the harbor as they saw Drake emerge from the water. 

Erza and Lucy: Drake!

Natsu: You're okay! 

Wendy: Thank goodness! 

Drake: (coughs a bit) Lucky me. 

Carla: What happened to the water demon? 

Drake: It's dead, but you're not gonna believe what fish I just caught. 

Drake was climbing on the harbor while carrying the woman before he gentle placed her down. When everyone got a look at her, Gray looked shocked with his eyes widen. 

Gray: (shocked) No... it can't be.

The woman had an average height with a slim, curvaceous figure. Her irises were black and she kept her dark purple hair at chin length. Her hair was normally quite unkempt, cascading down the sides of her face and covering her ears. Only a few strands of her hair hung down her temple, some falling between her eyes. 

She wore a short, tan jacket with a dark brown collar and cuff and two breast pockets. The pockets could be closed by buttoning the small flaps above them to their front. She used to leave her jacket open to reveal a maroon tube top below it, partially exposing her midriff. She wore a pair of black jeans and a belt with a scaly design and metal buckle. Her outfit was completed by a pair of simple brown shoes.

Wendy: (confused) Who is that? 

Gray: (shocked) T-That's Ur... she's... my old master.

Team Natsu was shocked to hear that. 

Erza: That's Ur? 

Lucy: B-But I thought she died?

Happy: Yeah! Gray told us she use a forbidden ice spell to seal Deliora in an ice prison, but it cost her life!

Natsu: Hold on. If she's dead, how did she ended up in the ocean? 

Drake: I'm not sure, but if I had to guess; my powers must've brought her back to life. 

Ur started groaning as she slowly opened her eyes. 

Ur: Ugh.... W-Where am I? (looks at Gray) Gray, is that you? 

Gray: Ur...

Ur: (smile) Hey there, Gray. You've grown since we last met. (notices his face) What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost.

A few tears of joy were coming down his face. Gray rushed towards her master and gives her a big hug, He thought it was an allusion at first but it was all real.

He forgot everyone who was surround him for moment just to embrace, Ur was doing the same thing, she haven't seen her student in 18 Years and how he has grown was amazing. 

Gray: (teary) I missed you, Ur. 

Ur: (smile) I missed you too, Gray. 

While Team Natsu starts to introduce themselves to Ur, Drake ponders in thought. 

Drake's mind: Gray told me that the Iced-Shell that was Ur melted by the Moon Drop to free Deliora. When I went Devil Trigger and killed the water demon, it's demonic power released from inside of me to make Ur who be turned into ocean water back to human. 

Wendy: Excuse me, Drake? 

Drake: (looks at Wendy) Hm? 

Wendy: (bows) I want to thank you for saving again. 

Drake: (smile and pat her hair) No problem, Wendy. 

Wendy smiled as she already starts to admire Drake to have respect and a bit more trust at him, even when working, he still care about safety of others. Lucy and Erza sees him good with kids and starting to have more reason to love. 

Ur: (walks to Drake) So, you're Fairy Tail's newbie who turned me back into a human. 

Drake: Yep. Names Drake Redgrave, (gestures a handshake) nice to meet you.

Ur:  (accepts it) Nice to met ya, I'm Ur Milkovich. (thoughts) Wow, never thought I would be rescued by a handsome cutie~. 

Fairy Tail guild hall

It had been a few hours since Lady arrived at the guildhall. A few of them asked questions about her, who was she? Did she want to join? How does she know Drake? 

She did not want to join the guild, and she said she was an acquaintance of his and he owed her quite a lot of money.

Lady: So, you've joined Fairy Tail as well Kat? 

Kat: Yes. And I see he still owes you that debt, hence the reason why you're here. 

Lady: Yep. (takes a sip of her drink) 

Mirajane: By any chance, is Drake your boyfriend?

Lady spat out her drink, which left a rainbow, as soon as she heard that.

Lady: Are you kidding me?! No way!

Mirajane: What's wrong?

Lady: He's not my boyfriend, he just owes me money! That's it!

Lisanna: What exactly do you know of Drake?

Lady: Not much, he's very secretive and tends to keep to himself.

Lady could tell that Drake didn't say anything in regards to his family's history; she respected him enough to keep his secret.

???: Yo! We made it back!

A voice called out. All turned to the entrance to see Natsu kick the door open, revealing him, Drake, Erza, Wendy, Carla, Gray, Lucy, Happy, and Ur. 

While everyone else was warmly welcomed back by their comrades and introduce themselves to Ur which surprised some members, Kat walked towards Drake.

Kat: Drake, we have a problem. And you're not gonna like it.

Drake: Why?

Kat pointed at the counter which made Drake looked at where she's pointing at. As soon as he saw Lady he sighed. He walked up to the counter and greeted her.

Dante: Hey, it's been a while.

Lady: Yeah, sure has.

Natsu, Erza, Wendy, Gray, Lucy, Ur, and Happy joined them.

Natsu: Yo, Drake, who's this chick?

Drake: Guys, Lady. Lady, guys.

Ur: You're a friend of Drake's?

Lady: More of an acquaintance than a friend.

Wendy: Well he's a great person, he saved my life twice.

Lady's mind: "Drake" and "Great" in the same sentence? I'll never get used to that.

Lady pattered Windy's head.

Lady: Sure, whatever you say kid.

Gray: So what do you do?

Lucy: (pointed at her rocket launcher) And why do you have a massive rocket launcher with you?!

Lady: I'm a devil hunter, and I gotta fight demons somehow, don't I?

Happy: You're a devil hunter too?!

Natsu: So you wanna join Fairy Tail?

Lady: Nope, just here to collect on a debt (pointed at Drake) this guy owes me.

Happy: (rolling his tongue) Or you liiikkee him.

Lady's eye twitched, she came up close to the flying cat's face.

Lady: Listen up cat, cause I'm only gonna say this once. (Happy gets scared) This bastard here is a strawberry sundae freak! He eats pizza everyday, and he never pays back the money he borrows from me or anyone else! How exactly am I supposed to fall for him?!

Happy: (scared) Sorry, I was just kidding!

Gray: That's almost scary as Erza.

Natsu: Hey! You're a Devil Hunter huh?

Lady: Yes, and you must be the Salamander. You're much younger than I thought you be.

Natsu: (ignored the comment) If you're a Devil Hunter, than you gotta be strong; and if you're strong, you gotta fight me!

Drake, Kat, Ur, Erza, and Lady both sweat dropped at that.

Ur: Is he serious? 

Kat: Pretty much. 

Lady: Sorry, no.

Natsu: To bad, cause here I come!

Natsu charged in, only for his face to make contact with her boot, he fell back with swirls in his eyes.

Mirajane: Oh, my.

Erza shook her head as Gray and Happy tried to help him up.

Lady: So...

Drake: Don't bother, cause I'm already getting it out. 

Drake reached into his jacket and pulled out a large stack of money and handed to her.

Drake: I had a feeling you'd show up, so I'd save some just for this moment.

Lady went through all the bills and counted the money.

Lady: 35,000 jewel huh?

Drake: Yep, all in cash.

Lady: Good, that means 20% of your debt is now cleared.

Lucy: 20%? Hold on, are you seriously that far in debt? Geeze, what did you do that made you owe this chick that much money?

Drake: Don't ask. I guess it's a good thing we hit that jackpot today huh?

Lady: Jackpot?

Drake took out two items from his jacket and tossed them to Lady, she and Kat were surprised to say the least.

Kat: Holy crap! 

Lady: Is that a tentacle of the Jokatgulm demon?! 

Drake: Bingo sister. Ran into it on my last job, that should be more than enough, so I'd say we're square at this point.

Lady was indeed taken aback, Drake rarely paid back any debts, least of all to her. She kept her surprise well hidden as she flashed an amused grin.

Lady: That depends, if these are the real thing or not.

Lady got off the counter and left some money for Mirajane.

Lady: Thanks for the drink.

Drake: So where you headed?

Lady: You got your business, I got mine.

Drake: If you get sick of it, try joining a guild, it's a lot more fun that you might think.

Lady: I'm more of a solo-act. (left the guildhall) See ya.

Gray: You didn't say there were other Devil Hunters out there.

Drake: You didn't ask.

Erza: Who exactly was that?

Dante: No one you wanna mess with, trust me. She's one badass Devil Hunter chick.

Chapter 7 ended.
