Years had passed, the turmoil of the Dragon War was reaching a high point.

Dragons from the west kept coming in droves in an attempt to evade the east or something.

Ramona didn't care why the dragons were coming all she knew they had killed her mother and all the world needed to know she and Acnologia were neither friend or foe.

All they wanted was the annihilation of all dragons that would do harm to others.

~~~~~

Another day, another battlefield.

Ramona and Acnologia watched from the distance as dragons and human(other dragon slayers rather) fought each other.

They had been travelling to meet with someone who had requested them by name, which wasn't surprising that they knew that, after all the two apparently had quite the reputation, not that either of them cared.

They had asked for their expertise as slayers in for some matter and the two saw no reason to turn them down.

They had passed many a battlefield along the way and hadn't stopped, there was no reason, so why had they stopped at this one?

Because Ramona  smelled something familiar and then she saw what it had been and froze where she stood.

"Ramona?" Acnologia asked curiously but then he smelled that familiar scent and saw what she saw, the cream colored dragon with horns.

Her heart beat furiously in her chest, her blood was literally boiling and she could feel her fangs and claws elongating, she shivered, shaking in anger as her fist clenched and her eyes narrowed into slits.

She took deep shaky breaths in vain attempt to calm herself down and Acnologia saw she was just about to burst in pure rage and he didn't stop it, in fact he stepped back and pushed her forward.

And that's all it took for Ramona to bolt forward.

~~~~~

Ramona ran to the battlefield, the wind pushing against her back and speeding her along and she quite literally jumped into the battlefield with a wide grin that showed off her fangs.

~~~~~

"Sir! My lady! We need reinforcements! A crazy woman showed up out of nowhere! She's tearing through everyone! Belserion is currently engaged with her but it's not looking good!" a messenger yelled informing his commanders of the situation on the battlefield.

"What?!"Irene shrieked growing pale had a dragon slayer turned on them?

"No time to think about that, we must go at once" Rung firmly reminded her.(quick A/N can i just say Rung (Erza's father) looks an awful lot like Aizawa)

"You're right, let's go" Irene nodded firmly and the two followed the messenger to the battlefield.

~~~~~

The woman approached the fallen Belserion, blood dripping from her, some her own from a few lucky hits but most from the dozens of other dragons and solders laying dead on the ground as all but mangled corpses.

She looked absolutely insane with a gleam in her eyes but there was also still some part of her that was thinking straight and that's what frightened Belserion.

"You!" the woman roared as she punched through his stomach and the dragon coughed blood.

But right after that the woman calmed down as she casually strode up to Belserion's face and looked at him right in the eye.

He saw the runic tattoos on her wrist and he recognized it, his eyes growing wide, "Those runes, you'd go so far but why?" he managed to choke out.

The woman hardened her eyes, he saw nothing but pure rage in those eyes, the very ground shook as the woman's magic flared, pushing down anyone weaker then her, including himself at this moment.

"You killed my mother" the woman hissed, sneering at him as the earth cracked and rumbled below him.

"I have never killed a human being!"Belserion roared, despite the overwhelming fear Belserion felt as he faced this woman's wrath.

Something snapped, the woman jumped before landing an axe kick to his arm, cutting it off, he roared in pain before the woman was facing him again.

"I'm not talking about that bitch she abandoned me to be eaten by dragons because i was born different! I am talking about my real mother Gaia the Nature Dragon! You killed her! AND smashed her egg!!!"the woman roared.

The earth split open and magma spilled out in a massive explosion as she did, despite this Belserion felt nothing but an overwhelming feeling of guilt.

He remembered that green dragon he had killed years ago, he hadn't meant to, he just though she was a western spy and didn't stop to see she had an egg or that she was taking care of a human.

"I'm sorry" he said with deep regret.

"YOUR SORRY'S WON'T BRING HER BACK!!!"The woman roared commanding the magma that had burst out to gather around her with a simple wave of her hand.

Belserion had only one thought as he faced his death 'I'm sorry Irene'

~~~~~

Ramona let out a war cry as she commanded the magma to burn the cream colored dragon alive.

It roared in agony until there was nothing but a charred corpse left.

Ramona dropped to her knees panting from exhaustion and taking shaky breaths as she cried.

~~~~~

Acnologia had reached the battlefield just before her final and once it was over he simply walked over the countless bodies of both dragons and slayers and ordinary solders before reaching Ramona.

She was taking deep breath between sobs that wracked her whole body covered in soot and blood.

Her attack had left behind a mini volcano that was slowly cooling down as was the magma around her.

Even now years later after he first saw it Acnologia still finds the power of nature absolutely terrifying and he also holds deep respect for Ramona to be able to have that power at her beck and call.

Shaking that though off he approached her and pulled her close to him and like before let her cry all she wanted on him.

Ramona calmed down much quicker this time and cleared her throat as she wiped away her tears "Let's continue our way" she said.

He nodded picking her up, Ramona didn't protest, she knew she was too exhausted to walk, and thus they continued their way.

~~~~~

Irene and Rung arrived on the battlefield after this.

Irene was devastated to see her long time friend Belserion dead and charred but she was also terrified.

The power that dragon slayer held it could have only been the one the rumors were talking about, it was either Acnologia or Ramona.

And she was too terrified at the thought of facing either of them to swear revenge.

~~~~~

As Acnologia continued his way to meet the person who contacted them, while carrying a passed out Ramona.

He got lost.

Plain and simple.

It was not that he was bad with directions, it was like something drove him to get lost.

Because all of the sudden he found himself in a cave and not just any cave from the smell of it a Dragon's Lair.

Ramona stirred in his arms as she was waking up and he gently put her down, she yawned and stretched before noticing where they were.

They both put up their guard but as they grew adjusted to the scent of the dragons in the cave they noticed a different scent, a human scent.

They ran further inside the cave.

~~~~~

Acnologia stared at the body of the little girl, he stared at the dragons infront of the little girl about to devour her.

He stepped in, his magic power radiating off of him but the dragons were not faced.

"I am the Dragon Slayer Acnologia and i will ensure that you dragons will never hurt an innocent ever again!" he roared before attacking.

It was another bloodbath and Acnologia would have kept going until he killed every dragon in the cave, until.

"STOP!" Ramona called hugging him from behind holding him back, despite the fact that she was still tired from her fight not too long ago.

Acnologia did stop and the dragons ran away in fear, and rightfully so besides they could hunt the dragons down later.

Ramona said nothing as she continued to hold Acnologia, he removed her arms from around him turning to her.

"I'm fine now" he simply said.

Ramona looked him in the eye before she nodded and let him go.

They both turned to the little girl, both of them certain she was dead.

"Sorry i was not able to protect you" Acnologia said, Ramona nodded in agreement.

Acnologia picked up Ramona again and the two continued their way.

~~~~~

That day was the bloodiest the war ever had been and ever would be as unfortunately the war did not end there but that doesn't matter.

Because that day carved two names into the annals of history, Acnologia the Dragon King and Ramona the Wrath of Mother Nature, that day also became known as the Dragon King Festival.
