Chapter 16
Lucy and I were sat in our apartment. Natsu was at the guild with the others.
"Do you really have to fight?" Lucy asked. I sighed.
"No, of course I don't. But I have to prove my strength to everyone in the guild and myself. I haven't been in a proper battle in years it is quite exciting for me."
"Natsu won't hold back." She said.
"Good, I don't want him too because I'm not either."
After lunch the time of the battle had arrived. Natsu it turns out had been eating fire all morning to improve his strength not that that was going to help him. I stood on the open field in south gat park where a lot of battles like these happened. The guild were gathered around, drinking, laughing, eating and having a good time. They really want to see us fight, I thought. I saw Macarov walk by and I called to him. He came over..
"Why is the while guild here?"
"It isn't very often we get to see 2 powerful dragon slayers have an all out battle." He paused. "Kat, are you sure you want to do this only using your earth dragon slayer magic?"
"Yes, I can beat him with only that."
"Afterwards I want to tell them."
"Tell them what?"
"About who you really are."
"What, why?"
"Because they deserve to know don't you think."
"Yeah, I guess."
"But promise to kick his ass for me. Natsu is a great wizard but sometime he needs to be put in his place" I smiled at him.
"Don't worry sir. I will." He walked away to the middle of the field and was passed a microphone by Mira.
I looked across the field and saw Natsu standing there. He was glaring at me, I could tell he was concentrating really hard. I smiled and waved at him. He seemed to snap out if his glare and waved at me, smiling goofily. Happy said something to him and his face turned serious again.
Now we will see Natsu the Salamander versus Katrina the earth dragon slayer. Let the battle begin." He said. The crowd cheered and Natsu lit his right hand up with flames and charged towards me. I stayed still and waited for him to come pretty close.
"Fire dragon iron fist." He shouted as I lifted my hand and blocked his firey first with no hand. His flames vanished and he looked temporarily stunned. Before he could attack again I whispered...
"Earth dragon concealment." And I vanished into the ground. I travelled through the earth until I came back up behind Natsu. He turned around just as I did.
"Earth dragon's smashing fist." I hit him right in the face and he went flying backwards. He wasn't on the ground long though. Before he started I knew what he was going to do...
"Fire dragon's..." He began.
"Earth dragon's..." I said at the same time.
"ROAR." We both shouted. A tornado of fire and earth collided in the middle but mine was more powerful than Natsu's and I over powered him he went flying backwards again. There was a loud cheer but I was a little worried Natsu didn't just jump back up like he had done before. Have I over done it? I asked myself. I looked back at Macarov who nodded at me but when I looked back at Natsu who was up again.
"Fire dragon's flaming elbow." Natsu shouted. Fire shoot from his elbow and as he ran he was really fast. I smiled a little.
"Earth dragon's wall." I said rather quietly. A huge wall of earth appeared in front of me and before he could stop himself Natsu ran head first into in. There was a loud clash as he hit the wall with a lot of force. I made the wall disappear so that I could see him. He was on the ground and he didn't look good but I could tell he still wasn't done. He began to get up very slowly.
"Wow, Natsu you are a sucker for punishment." I said. "Earth dragon's hammer." A huge hammer made of earth appeared on top of him. It crashed down on him and it made a dent in the floor. I felt bad as I looked at him all beaten up on the floor like that.
"Natsu?" I said. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." He said weakly.
"Do you want to stop? Because I don't want to hurt you anymore." He lifted his head up slowly.
"You can have this on but next time I won't go easy in you." I laughed and then walked over to him. I bent down and patted his head.
"You haven't unlocked your full power yet Natsu." I told him. "And when you do unlock that power you will be unstoppable."
"You really think so?"
"Yes."
"Will I be able to beat Grey, you and Erza?" I laughed lightly.
"Well, I don't know about that one but you can try." I paused. "And Natsu?"
"Yeah?"
"Just so you know that was only a fourth of my true power."
"You're an alien then." Was all he said. Macarov was in the middle of the field stood in front of everyone. He gestured for me to come over but I didn't want to leave Natsu like he was. I saw Wendy run over.
"I will heal him you go." She said sweetly.
"Thanks." I said before waking to stand by Macarov. When I was there he started speaking.
"Now we all see how powerful Katrina is." There were a few nodding heads and yeah's at this. "Now I have to tell you that Katrina is more powerful that you could imagine." Everyone was looking around really confused. "Katrina has the ability to control all four of the elements." There were lots of gasps.
"No way. Not possible." Macarov sighed and he looked tired and worn out.
"I can show you." I said loudly. That got everyone's attention. I stepped away from Macarov then I began to bring forth the elements. I started with earth making a large rock appear out if nowhere. Then I went to water and made a little water fountain. There were gasps so next I went to fire, and made a little fire next to me. For air a summoned a huge gust of wind that blew in everyone's hair, I made sure that it also put if the fire, I stopped the water and the large rock sank back ingot the earth.
"Do you believe me now?" I asked the stunned crowd. Then a man I didn't recognise stood up and shouted...
"I know who you are they call you the lady of dragon slayers right?" Everyone was waiting eagerly for my reply.
"Yes, I am."
"But I heard you were dead." Shouted the man that stood up a minute ago. Macarov decided to step in again.
"Yes, that was thought but it turns out she was alive all along. She was being kept in a dark guild called Black Viper. Their master, Hamish used concealment magic to hide her from the world." I shuddered at his name. Then the crowd cheered.
"That's amazing." I heard someone say. I saw Natsu was on his feet again though Wendy didn't look too good. I guess healing magic really wipes you out, I thought. Natsu smiled at me encouragingly. It amazed me that he had just lost a fight and still smiled at me. I returned the smile then waited behind with Macarov, Mira and the others until everyone was gone...
