Chapter 29: Tremblebane
"Hebe is in the infirmary, I healed her up but she needs some rest," Wendy said.
"Where are the others?" Natsu asked the flying cat.
"They're probably still in the forest, they told me to hurry here," Calypso replied.
Just then, Nasha ran through the guild doors out of breath. She panted, holding onto a table.
"Nasha! Where's Luke?" Calypso exclaimed.
"He came back for Greige," Nasha answered in between breaths. "How's the girl?"
"She's fine, Wendy healed her up."
"That's good to hear." Nasha smiled. "But we have to worry about that guy. He's dangerous."
"Calypso told us that he's a member of the dark guild Tremblebane," Caleb said, a pint of beer in hand.
"They're known for human trafficking. They're also extremely popular in the black market as they sell various human parts," he added. "If they're petty enough they'll most likely look for her."
"Not to mention he's also a Dragon Slayer," Nasha added.
"A Dragon Slayer!" Wendy gasped.
"Yeah." Nasha nodded.
Her gaze switched to her father, she clenched her fist and glared at him. "You told me there aren't any more Dragon Slayers. You told me it's impossible to learn it. Then how come he's one!!" Nasha exclaimed.
"Nasha now is not the time." Calypso tried to calm her down.
"Listen to Calypso, this matter has become even more dangerous," Natsu told his daughter.
"But dad, if there's a way that I can get Dragon Slayer Magic why can't I get it!!" Nasha shouted.
"Because it's dangerous and not to mention illegal." Raiden suddenly popped into the conversation.
"What?" Nasha raised a brow.
"Think about it Nasha, Dragons are extinct and that is a fact. If there are any alternative ways to give a person Dragon Slaying magic it's bound to be unstable. Not to mention, this guy is from a dark guild, where do you think he got a hold of his magic?"
"But if there is a way-"
"If there is a safe way I would've given it to you by now!" Natsu shouted. "Why are you so obsessed with this?!"
Nasha didn't say a word and just ran upstairs.
"Nasha!" Calypso called out to her, following her but Natsu grabbed her by the tail.
"Let her be alone for a while. I'll talk to her later."
"Calypso do you know what kind of Dragon Slayer is this person?" Raiden asked.
"He's an Ocean Dragon Slayer," Calypso replied.
"Excuse me what?!" Gray shouted.
"You left Greige with an Ocean Dragon Slayer, are you crazy or stupid??!" Sylvia added.
------
Luke panted as he carried Greige by the shoulder and opened the guild doors with his feet.
"We're back!" Luke exhaustedly groaned before collapsing on the floor, dropping Greige in the process.
"Oh my God!" Wendy gasped rushing over to the two boys followed by their parents.
"My baby!!" Juvia cried as she held onto Greige, wiping the dirt and blood off his face.
"Did you beat him?" Nasha asked.
"Do you really think we did?!" Luke shouted, his body limping to the floor as Wendy healed him.
"We barely made out of there," Greige added.
"Well... It's your fault for coming up with that stupid idea." Nasha huffed.
"It's the only option to keep you and the little girl safe," Greige replied.
"What about me?" Calypso whined.
"Sure, you too Cali."
"And who told you I need saving?!" Nasha shouted.
"You may not realize this but out of all of us in there you're magic has the most disadvantage against him," Greige replied. "If I let you stay there, you would've died."
Nasha balled her shaking hands, trying her best not to cry.
"Gee... Thanks for thinking so low of me." She sniffled and immediately ran away.
"Dude..." Yaje walked closer to Greige who is currently being treated by Wendy. "Not cool."
"What did I do?!" Greige is confused, Nasha isn't a sensitive person, at least that's what he thinks. He wonders what has gotten her so upset.
"Regardless of what Greige thinks. He needs to apologize to Nasha." His mother said as she fixed his hair.
------
Hebe groaned as she woke up from her slumber. She opened her eyes and got off the bed. Her body is filled with bandages from her wounds.
"Oh, you're awake." A voice said.
Hebe turned around and saw a tall figure with white and black hair, a scar on his left cheek, and piercing blue eyes.
"You're Hebe, correct?" The figure squatted down to meet her at eye level.
Hebe nervously nodded.
"My name is Raiden." The figure smiled and Hebe was rather delighted to see that he was not as intimidating as she thought he would be.
"I'm sorry, I might have scared you a bit." Raiden chuckled. "This is just how my face looks."
"You're nice and you look cool. I like that." Hebe chuckled and Raiden wholeheartedly laughed.
"Aren't you a riot." Raiden chuckled as he walked his way to the drawers and took a couple of pills and shoved it inside his coat.
"Are you feeling better?" Raiden asked and Hebe nodded. "That's good to hear."
"Will the bad guys come back to kill me?" Hebe asked, fidgeting her fingers.
"Don't worry." Raiden placed his hand on top of the girl's head in a reassuring manner. "You'll be safe here."
------
"Nasha!" Natsu walked towards the guild balcony to find his daughter. He ran towards her but the girl steered clear of him.
"Nasha, listen. I know you're mad but I'm only looking out for you." Natsu started. "You're my daughter and I want you safe, I know how badly you want to be a Dragon Slayer and if there is a safe way I would've given it to you a long time ago."
"I just don't get it. How come they can be one while I, a daughter of an actual Dragon Slayer can't." Nasha replied, turning around to face her father. "And how come you're not at all surprised about this revelation?!"
Natsu just stood there in silence while Nasha looked at him in disbelief.
"You knew... you knew that there is a new generation of Dragon Slayers that exist... all this time, you knew, and yet you didn't tell me about it!"
"Who else in the guild knows about this?! Reiki? Greige? Dad, why would hide this from me!"
"Because I'm protecting you!! I know how you will react, and hiding it from you is the only way I know how. Nasha, we don't know where these Dragon Slayers come from and we don't know where and how they are able to obtain the magic."
"So you just assumed it's dangerous."
"It's bound to be because dragons don't exist anymore and without dragons, Dragon Slaying magic can't be thought."
"Besides, you don't need Dragon Slaying magic, you're already powerful and amazing on your own. I've told you this countless times."
"Easy for you to say!!" Nasha shouted and stormed off.
"Nasha!" Natsu called but only got a door slammed in his face.
------
Hebe is having the time of her life, quite frankly she hasn't been this happy in forever.
"Do it again." She cheered as she watched Greige make little seahorses out of the water in her glass.
"I'm glad you're enjoying your stay here." Greige smiled at her.
"The guild's so much fun!!" She laughed in glee.
Out in the corner of Greige's eye, he saw Nasha sprint downstairs. He tried to walk up to her to apologize but she seemed to be way more pissed off than earlier so he bailed on the idea and decided to talk to her later.
------
The sound of boots hitting the floor echoed throughout the dark room.
"Master, I regret to inform you that we have lost the girl."
The man sitting in the swivel chair sighed as he puffed out a cloud of smoke.
"A loss is a loss. Just try better next time, Triton."
"Of course." The man with spiky blue hair nodded. "It was also Fairy Tail who took her."
"The Fairies?" The man turned around to face the man in front of him. His dark blue eyes met his green ones.
Triton nodded. "There's three of them, and an exceed. One uses water and ice magic, the other is a Requip mage, I didn't get the chance to fight the girl but based on her appearance she's Natsu Dragneel's daughter."
"Fascinating." The man in the chair hummed.
"What are you planning on doing Master?" Triton asked.
"The Fairies have Dragon Slayers correct?"
Triton nodded. "There are 5 to be exact."
"Perfect." The man stood up from his seat.
"Let's hunt some dragons."
