Y/n Pov

The scent of freshly backed goods filed the room I currently sat in. I took a look around and noticed how neatly it was decorated. On a shelf on the right were several pictures of Irene, Erza and Wendy smiling happy like a family. On my left was the window with an exelent view of the front garden. "Remind me why Irene called us here again?" Natsu asked and the one known as Gray scoffed at him. "She asked us to come because of him flame brain." Gray pointed to me.

I closed my eyes for a moment. I still couldn't believe what happened just moments ago. We got telleported back here from 400 years ago. My heart was still pounding and my emotions were all over the place. I couldn't easily comprehend what had happened. I met my parents when they were children yet I was no way closer to the question on how I got here 400 years later. It is like some kind of sick joke.

The only ones who could give me an answer are the other Dragon slayers. I looked over to Natsu who was about to throw his hands on Gray. "Natsu how did you get here if you too are a dragon slayer?" I asked and he turned towards me from butting his head against Gray. He scrached his head. "I think it had to do something with a portal." He replied and right beside me Wendy squirmed and Gajeel snorted. "We went through something called the Eclipse gate, the three of us and two others called Sting and Rogue together with our teacher Anna Heartfilia arrived here in the year 777." She stated and then tilted her head. "Why do you ask, didn't you come here the same way we did?" She asked and Lucy shook her head in response.

She moved her finger up. "I don't think he could Wendy, remember it was just the six of you and then the portal closed. The Eclipse gate had no magic left for it to work again." She stated and the looked over to Erza who sat next to Wendy. "That is right." She nodded placing her hand on her chin. "Maybe it happened the same way I did but then how could you be the same age?" She mused. A rasping noise caught our attention. "Allow me to explain this to you Erza." Irene walked inside with a freshly baked cake on a tray setting it down and Heine joined her with tea.

Irene took her seat right on the large single couch in front of the fire place. "I called you all here to explain to us two some of the things we don't know and even you Laxus can help us." She stated and looked through all of us.

Gajeel, Laxus, Natsu Wendy, Gray Lucy Cana and Erza were all here asked by Irene to come. "Its clear to me we all have something to do with Dragon slayer magic but why Gray he doesn't have any connection to it?" Erza asked and Irene giggled softly. "Oh he does have an important role for Y/n, they share the same element and without a doubt Gray can teach a thing or two to him." She stated and Erza looked at her still puzzled.

"Y/n what do you think about the dragon?" Irene asked and raised an eyebrow. I clenched my hand lightly. "I don't really know, on one hand my mother seems to be alive and on the other hand I'm trying to find the dragon who raised me." I replied and Irene thought a moment. "I'm honstestly out of any ideas how you can be born in this time line. Your mother couldn't use any magic that had to do with time travel and then theres your dragon which couldn't be alive anymore from my guess and we have no real evidence of her existance either. The archive back in Dragnof had nothing on her, my guess she's a feral dragon." Irene replied and I looked down.

"That's not true I know where your dragon is." Natsu shouted and stood up. "Its inside of you in your stomach." He shouted and we all gave him a dumbstruck look.

"Did he eat her?" Heine burst out in shock and Irene tried to hold her laugh but failed a little. I wouldn't say that." She waved her hand. "Right I forgot about that possibility. It could be your dragon has manifested itself inside of you taking you as its vessel." She stated and I looked down.

A vessel how could a dragon fit inside of me. Wendy looked towards me. "That is right our dragons put their soul inside of us, together with their dragon magic they stopped something growing called the Dragon seed, which is the reason for Irene-sans tragic past." Wendy replied and I saw Irene look gloomy.

"But then how could Anna tell us about the dragon all the way over in Japan, its far away on the east side of Ishgar its own island nation." Irene replied and then she looked up as if a light had switched on. Lucy tilded her head now a little. "I'm guessing a dragon doesn't take long to cross such a distance." Lucy stated and Irene nodded. "A dragon can easily do it in a few days but with a ship it takes weeks if not months for such a journey."

Our only hope to know if the dragon is real is to go to Japan and we still have the issue with Makoto. "Irene, if we like it or not we have no choice about Japan, you know Makoto has to go back so we should join her and get there too." I chimmed in and she murmured something under her breath.

"I'm not sure if that's such a good idea, the Shogun and I don't really stand on good terms and she's the Raijin, Or better known as the god of thunder." Irene stated and Erza gulped down a piece of the cake.

The God of thunder? like Laxus who's the lighting Dragon Slayer.

Erza placed the cup back in its saucer. "I've read about the God of thunder and her powerful sword. Whoever crosses her blade does not live to tell the tale, yet there is one person in history who could fend her off, it is but only a tale." Erza exclaimed and Irene nodded. "Good Erza, that means she can be fought against." Irene replied and then looked towards me for a second.

"Laxus, you have a Dragon slayer Lacrima inside you, have you not?" She asked and Laxus nodded. He gazed at her with his arms crossed. "I do, what about it?" He asked surprised.

"Y/n and I have Dragon slayer lacrimas now inside of us as well, so I'd like to know if they can cause any problems for us if we stress them too much." She asked and Laxus scratched his chin.

He shook his head. "I don't know honestly, I've gone full out on some occasions but I never had a problem with it, so its nothing to worry probably." He replied and Irene joyfully smiled. "Great." She clapped her hands together. "Dig in I've made them for you." She chimed and moved the tray closer.

"So how'd you think you ended up here?" Cana asked and I looked back to her as she took a bite from the pastry. "Well it could be like Erza's case." I replied and Erza looked up to me. "That's right I'm born from a dragon in human form." She stated and looked to her mother. "So it can be the same on your case too I'd say." She added.

How could I be concieved 400 years ago and be born in the year 777. There is no logical way for it. "Irene do you know how it could have happened?" I asked and she gave me a solemn look. Her gaze shifted down to the ground. "I honestly don't know, we know your mother is alive since the archive said it so there may only be one possible answer, your dragon and mother are one and the same that's certain." She replied and then crossed her legs. "However, how she managed to deliver you 400 years later may be a question only she can answer. As of now, we can debate about it. What do you think?" Irene stated and cocked her head lightly.

"I say Y/n was laid as an egg and she froze it since he came from a dragon." Natsu yelled and Lucy grew a beet red face. She clenched her teeth together. "That's not how it works you idiot, haven't you learned anything from Porlyusica!" She shouted out angrily.

Irene let out a slight chuckle as Lucy almost wanted to hit Natsu. "Close but not quite Natsu, I do think something had to be frozen but it wasn't an egg, like a chickens ." She replied and tapped her finger on the cup.

"If we go by possibilty and what we have learned in the past there could be a chance of either you or her having been frozen in ice in order to overcome those 400 years but if you were born human how could you be raised by a dragon." Irene mused and sipped her cup.

Erza perked up from her seated possition. "Could it be that his mother found a way to turn back into a human form just by sheer will. We know Acnologia could do it so why shouldn't others be able to do it too." Erza stated and Irene nodded. "It could be, but still how did she stop him from growing possibly, a dragon can easily live hundreds if not several thousand years." Irene replied looking down at the cup.

"I think she froze him when he still was developing inside her. Just like you did to me mother, she simply used her magic to freeze him from growing further until the time felt right." Erza stated.

"That could be the case Erza but we won't get anything done by sitting here. I suggest we prepare for the grand magic games and we still need to travel to Y/n's parents, he did promis them to stop by just before the games began." Irene stated and stood up. Her eyes gave a quick glance at me. "Gray, could you come with me and Y/n to my backyard, I need you to teach him something about ice maker magic." She ordered sternly.

. . .

Irene's backyard had something mysterious about itself. We knew she was into gardening and both Heine and Juliet helped her with the Chores. The one thing which stood out in her garden was the small waterfall coming out right at the back of it.

Irene turned around to Gray. "Gray I want you to teach him all you know about ice magic, I'm not sure if he knows all about it." Irene stated and Bill flew right up to her. "Hey he isn't some idiot like Natsu, he knows what his magic can do." She stated and I laughed a little.

"Its alright Bill, I'm sure I can learn something, besides Irene is the creator of Dragon slayer magic so she knows it all probably." I stated and Bill made a light huff.

Gray got into his fighting stance. He put his hands together. "Ice make Lance!" He shouted and right from him a lance made of ice shot towards me. "Ice dragons demolishing strike." I shouted and my fist was engulfed in ice. I punched the tip of the Lance to break it.

But to my shock the Lance didn't break, instead my attack shattered sending me backwards into a stone wall. I crashed on it abd grunted painfully. I heard someone klap. "Oh my oh my, I certainly didn't expect this to happen." A feminine voice exclaimed.

I sat up and Irene knelt down right next to me. "Let me have a look at you hand, just in case." Her hand took hold of mine and she examined it. I could feel something wasn't right with it. "The attack bruised your knuckles a bit. Its nothing too harsh. Just ask Wendy so she can practice her healing." Irene stated and then helped me up.

I was still confused about how Gray's attack could destroy mine. "Irene shouldn't I have destroyed Gray's attack?" I asked and she just laughed lightly in amusement. "That's what I wanted to find out right now."

Her expression was thoughtful yet calm. "Gray are there ways to make your ice much more durable?" Irene asked as she helped me sit down on a garden chair right at a table on her terrace. He rubbed the back of his head thinking. "There is." He snapped his eyes to me. "You control the temperature of ice with how much magic you put in but you probably know it already." He stated and Irene side eyed me silently. "And is there another?" Irene asked pushing for him to say.

Gray nodded and visible beeds of sweat ran down his forehead. "There's something called Devil slayer magic, its a type of lost magic and I can use it. Almost nothing can melt it and the only things that do are the moondrip and fire that comes from none other then the strongest dragons The fire Dragon king or Natsu." Gray stated and Irene nodded.

I see so I need to control the temperature of my ice, maybe if I can learn some new moves I can get stronger. "There is no noubt about it, Y/n you still need to train and I have just the thing for you that might help us." She replied and quickly stood up.

She gave me a sign to follow. "There is something I found. Its a kind of herb that allows you to talk to whoever you want, its called Dragonsblossom, I came across to it when visiting an indigenious tribe way out of the mainland Caelum, they used to grow on the sacret mountain of Darazil, my kingdom but something had happed which caused their exctinction a while ago. Its used for ceremonial purpouses as their contents cause, you to become relaxed and fall into a state of meditation when you take enough of it." She stated and stopped in front of a few flowers.

I could vaguely guess why they are called Dragonsblossom, the petals look like tiny dragon heads from the front. She picked a few leaves from the Stem. "I got a question Irene." I stated and she raised her eyebrow. "About what?" She cocked her head lightly. "The traditions of Dragnof, I'm curious about them." I stated.

Irene laughed lightly. Her smile seemed like she remembered something and she was at ease. She started to walk back to her home. "Dragnofs customs, they are beautiful, every year we put up giant fires on, the mountains surounding the main city in celebration of the nations creation over 900 years ago. Then we have the great Dragons feast in my old language called, Melucil. In which we carefully decorate the heads of the dragons with flowers paint and crests." She stated

She carefully placed the leaves into a mortar and started pounding them. "Be careful when you drink it Y/n this stuff can have some sideffects if you take it down too fast." She stated and then transfered it into a tall tea glass with boiling water. "Lets go back to the others, Gray is probably there too."

Once we all sat around the table again Irene placed the tea in my hands. "What's this strong scent?" Natsu asked in wonder sniffing the air.

"It must be whatever Irene brought, it looks like green tea to me." Lucy replied looking into it. "Well I hope it tastes better then it smells." Gajeel scoffed. "It smells like freshly mowed grass."

Great now I can't get that smell out of my nose. She made a sign for me to drink it and I slowly started to take it down.

"How long will it take till I feel its effect?" I asked and Irene looked at me calmly. I could hear a faint "Now." before everything went black and I fell into nothing but darkness.
