Natsu POV

We are inside the guild now. I sat at the bar while almost the whole guild pulled up chairs in front of me to listen to what I was going to say. Except Juvia, who already knew and Luce sat beside me. As well as Guildarts who was standing next to Luce. Okay here goes nothing. "So I'm sorry Ive kept that much from you all, but there's a lot more to it then that." I sighed feeling a little guilty for hiding it. I felt a sudden warmth on my hand. I looked down. Luce had her hand on mine. She was smiling at me a sweet understanding smile.

I love her. I love her so much. I couldn't imagine how my world would be without her. Her sweet smile. Her positive attitude. What's not love about her. Especially how easily she gets embarrassed and does her cute little pout. I sigh quietly to myself. Will she accept it? Will she except the real me?

"Okay so, Juvia and Guildarts already know this all but, I don't know how you'll all take it." I felt my heart twisted in my chest. "Spit it out flame brain!" I looked over at Gray. He was giving me a small glare. "You are one of us now! We won't abandon you! That's the exact opposite of what a guild does." I was a little taken aback by his words. "Gray-sama is right. I've spent quite a lot of time with you Natsu-San. You are such a wonderful person truly and I will always stand with you." I nodded giving her a quite thanks.

"Okay let's start from the beginning."

Flashback
Third POV
"You can't catch me!" "I will just watch!" The black haired boy chased the Pinkette around the hill. They laughed and laughed as they ran through the tall green grasses and flowers of all kinds. "Boys stop that!" The two froze and looked up at a pink haired woman with beautiful blue eyes. "Yes mom" they said simultaneously. She smiled. "Okay Natsu, go get the fire wood. Zeref go grab the food. I left it down by the large oak. You know what I'm talking about right?" "Yes mother." The black haired boy stated and ran off down the hill towards the lake. The other boy, the pinkette, ran off into the woods. "Be back before sundown! Or your father will be mad!" She called.

It was dark in the forest. Natsu flinched at every little noise he heard. So everything pretty much. Every little crack, snap, swish, drop, skitter, growl, tweet, and more. The sunset forest was filled with creatures of all kinds. Not always good. Natsu was very careful with every step he took. His father always told him to be careful around the places he doesn't know well. Don't trust anything or anyone. It doesn't matter if you think they're harmless.

Crack

He spun around in a flash. It came from behind him. Natsu sniffed the air. He growled "It smells like rotting flesh." His green eyes flickered over the landscape. The bushes rattled and out came a very wrinkled elderly man. He had a long white beard and you could barely see his eyes under his bushy eye brows. Natsu raised his fists which were lit with flames. "Wait!" The man yelled. He held his hands in front of him as if that would help. Natsu snorted, "what do you  want?" The man lowered his hands.

"You are Natsu, Natsu Dragneel?" Natsu thought for a second. Should he or should he not tell the man the truth. He's so old he couldn't possibly hurt him, Natsu thought. "Yeah Natsu Dragneel, thats me." Natsu said in a somewhat bored tone of voice. He lowered his hands and the flames went out, but he still kept his fists clenched tightly. The man had a small smile on his face. "I've been looking for you. You're the son of the Great Dragon King, Acnologia." Natsu flinched at the mention of his father. "You know my father?" The man chuckled "my boy, who doesn't know him."

I sudden loud boom sounded through the forest. Acnologia's roar. "NATSU!" Natsu flinched. He looked past the man into the trees. He was lost. He didn't know where the hill was. "Oh great dad's gonna kill me" Natsu sweat dropped. "Well it was nice meeting you sir, but I must be going." The mans said nothing. Natsu ignored it and walked past him towards the sound of the roar. Then the man. The man shot out his arm and grabbed the young boy's shoulder. Natsu looked up at him. Shocked and confused. The man's neutral face expression changed. It changed into a scary one. Then, black. Nothing.

Sometime later

"Natsu no no no!" The boy Zeref was crying. Why? In his arms he held his little brother. His precious brother that he treasured so dearly much. The one who was now laying limp in his arms with blood pouring out of several cuts in his small body. Natsu Dragneel, the brother of Zeref Dragneel and the son of Luna Estra Dragneel and Acnologia Dragneel. The Prince of Dragons. Heir to the Dragon King's throne. Now dead at the hands of an old man.

Well, almost dead....

Zeref placed his younger brother's body down at the claws of Acnologia. Zeref's step-father and Natsu's real father. The dragon bowed his head down to the small boy. Luna landed next to him in human form with her dragon wings out behind her. When she saw what happened she covered her mouth and tears came streaming down her face. Acnologia nudged the boy lightly with his snout. Natsu didnt move. He tried again, but still nothing. With that he backed away. "That sent is from the dragon killer blade. That man must have been a Heartfilia."

Acnologia stern gaze traveled over to Zeref. Zeref met his eyes equally. He knew where this was going. "Natsu is dead. How far gone do you think he is?" He asked Zeref calmly. Zeref knew the responses to the rest of this conversation. It was easy to predict. "Maybe a half an hour." He answered just as calmly. Acnologia transformed back and hugged his mate close. "You can bring him back still, cant you?" His toe was very questioning, but not a hint of desperation anywhere in it. "Yes but, it will take a long time." Acnologia nodded. "How long?" Zeref sighed. "Considering all complications," he stopped to calculate then looked at the ground "82 years." There was a long silence that overtook the hill. Acnologia broke it "then 82 years it will be. Just bring my son back."

Time skip

Zeref watched inside the small clear chamber. He was smiling. He watched the chamber's water bubble. The dark cave was plenty enough isolated to complete his work and now it was on its final steps. "This should work. I have your soul preserved inside of the lacrima. It should be slowly transferring over to your new body soon enough. Your body being preserved made this a little easier, but you only have that as your base. I guess it was a lot harder making your body strong enough to survive and adapt again" Zeref grabbed the white lacrima gently. It was the only thing holding his soul to this world. He smiled.

"Only a year to go, Natsu." He looked over and his mouth slightly parted in shock. Natsu's eyes began to flicker and they slightly opened. Zeref smiled a small smile. "Look who's finally starting to wake up." He got no response, but Zeref just chuckled "you'll be better soon Natsu." Zeref put his head to the edge of the containment. "Just one more year and those 81 years will be worth it." Natsu once again didn't respond. As his eyes closed once more.
