237💗Happy Valentines Day💗
{«Chapter 1»}
In a desolate part of the world one Natsu Dragneel was sitting down on a cliff, over looking a massive body of water. The sun shined, above the dark forest, and behind the pinkette giving him an almost angelic look. Natsu was looking at the worn out book in his hands. His almost shaggy/wild long hair fluttered as the wind blew, crimson eyes observing the texture of the book in his hands. (Natsu's hair looks the exactly the same as the picture up above.)
All the while donning his deceased older brother attire which included a high collared silk black robes with golden trimmings, a silver pendant with a picture of an older Zeref and a younger version of himself, a white toga was draped around his torso and Natsu wore black leather boots. The pinkette also had his trade mark white Dragon scale scarf wrapped around his neck.
"This is it. After today I'm finally going to be free." Natsu had a sad smile on his face as he gently whispered to the book in his hands, fearing that this might be dream. For over 10,000 years he had been watching as humans begin to forget magic, as they made technology their main focus in understanding. The planet he once fought to protect lost it's once glorious name. It became a remnant of what it used to be and ironically that's what the plant now is called, Remnant.
Natsu was cursed with immortality after defeating and subsequently losing his friends, family, including the Celestial Realm to the God of Life and Death; Ankhseram. The ancient Etherious received something akin to his brother's curse as the God's parting gift for freeing the said older brother from the torture that he had to endure for over 4 centuries. Natsu, over time knew exactly why Zeref began to create the Etherious, other than to kill him.
Zeref had created the Etherious to escape the constant isolation he felt from human civilization. They were meant to be his friends in his loneliest hour. And just like Zeref, Natsu created a species that was meant to do everything in their power to either destroy him or keep him company, hell for that exact reason he took out a large chunk of the moon, which held a lot of celestial power and put it into his creations.
But alas his experiment failed and the creatures he created were mindless. He had expected them to be powerful, stronger then the Etherious...but sadly it didn't work...it was only a false hope that he had, the younger is creations were the weaker they are, Natsu figured that out after a week of waiting. When creating his children from celestial powers, negative emotions, Dark magic, his blood, animals and the DNA from long dead Dragons and other mythical creatures, he hadn't factored into the fact that all of that power would need time, lots and lots of time, to evolve. For that mistake he paid dearly because his children began to attack humans.
Natsu could have stopped them, killed them, but out of the desire for his death and resentment at the humans for not remembering Earthland's history, he let his creations, the Grimm consume human lives...to near extinction.
But it wasn't until a millennia ago he let go of his anger and gave the humans a power that allowed them to fight on a equal footing against the Grimm, he gave/unlocked their Aura/Ki/Chakra, take your pick them mean the same thing; life and spiritual power. He could have given them and taught them magic but at that time there was no one that had a large magic container, each and every single human had the magic reserves of a newborn child. So Aura was humanity's greatest chance at survival.
Aura/Ki/Chakra had been utilized by the Dragneel Clan since the birth of civilization. Every human had access to that power, Zeref had unlocked his before their battle with Ankhseram. And over the time he found out about a manifestation of the power; Semblance.
And Natsu's Semblance gave him the ability of Absolute Adaptability. While his power may seem underwhelming but in reality it was easily the strongest Semblance in the history, the only one following its power was the very first person who had their Aura unlocked; Joan of Arc or Jeanne d'Arc.
Joan. That very name brought a myriad of emotions for the cursed Dragneel. Natsu let himself smile a bit wider at the memories that they had shared. Joan had manifested a Semblance that could have potentially been the strongest; Absolute Will. Absolute Will allowed Joan to control just about everything and everyone...but thanks to his Semblance, Natsu could adapt to her Will whenever they were sparing.
Natsu had spent two years living with the Arcs, in all of his lonely existence he had found a home with Joan. And it had been the only home he had had in over 9,000 years. All the while the rest of the world had known him as Monty Oum and treated him like a God, the Arcs knew him by his real name; Natsu Dragneel. But they thought he was human like them.
But Natsu's only chance at happiness was reduced to ashes when Joan was betrayed and burned at the stake by the people she was trying to protect. They accused her of horrendous crimes, spat at her, molested her, and threw curses at her. And it was his fault. It was his fault that Joan died, he should've been there to protect her, but at the very least Natsu had managed to save her soul before it too was close to being burned away. To Natsu, Joan was the only brightness that entered his life and in an instant she was eradicated...and for that Natsu killed everyone that had been associated with Joan's murder, whether they be man, women, or children, but he left one man alive to deliver the tragic news to Joan's family...before Natsu found and killed him as well.
It wasn't until later that people found out that Joan was innocent but by then it was too late, and it was written as one of the greatest injustices in the history books. Natsu turned bitter after that, he left civilization to a scheduled mountain where he lived his life hating everything and he slowly began to lose his will to continue anything...but he still couldn't die.
But that was until 4 girls came to his dwelling, they filled his world with happiness and sometimes he once forgot; fun. The first one encouraged him to medicate and reflect, the second one started a beautiful garden and filled it with fruits and flowers, the third one told him to "Get out of this old house and embrace the world you old geezer! Geez looking at you sulking all the time is killing me!" Natsu couldn't help but chuckle at that memory, he had used transformation magic to make him seem like man in his 70s. And the fourth one told him to be thankful for what he was, and when he began to do the things that they told him, Natsu rewarded them with a gift in return for everything that they did for him.
Natsu gave them magic. He taught them magic that relates to their namesakes, Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. Natsu taught them the Lost magic of the Seasons, which the girls merged with their Aura to make them more powerful. Even though he had learned things from girls thousands of years younger then him, Natsu couldn't let go of his past and forgive himself so he set off on a journey leaving the house he had built during the night.
As a parting gift Natsu had given the girls a special pearl that would allow them to go threw the cycle of rebirth while retaining their memories and powers. While he was thankful for everything they had done, Natsu wasn't all to eager to leave so much power in the hands of 4 girls, so he began on his new project which involved the creation of 'human' that were able to negate magic, which includes Grimm. The Etherious had made sure to add large amounts of magic nullifying substance which began the super species of humans known as the 'Silver eyed Warriors'.
The pinkette then spent his time traveling the world expanding his knowledge, learning that the Arc Family were a major power house in the kingdom of Vale and their fame continued to grow as they created Hunter Academies and helped fund medical schools and weapon smiths. The Arcs along with the King of Vale had led the war against Mantle and Mistral because of Faunus slavery, later in the war Vancuo also joined the war by helping Vale. The humans also had found some elemental magic Lacrima crystals which they were calling Dust. With the help of Dust the Hunters began to have a easier time dealing with high powered Grimm.
After the Great War, Julius Arc, the head of the Arc Family, was hailed as a Hero, bringing Vale and Vancuo victory and subsequently raising the Arc family's name to greater prestige. After that Natsu spent a couple more years traveling the world until he found a old, Earthland era old, tomb and in that tomb Natsu found some books and maps about a ancient book that grants a person's deepest and greatest desires.
Which leads to Natsu sitting at the very edge of a cliff while holding the exact book that the rumors talked about. "I'm coming guys. Just wait a little bit longer." And with that Natsu opened the book.
Put a drop of your blood in the center of the circle for the Rei- to begin.
Natsu ignored the missing part of the word and quickly pierced himself through his dense Aura with a sharp rock.
Well done. Reincarnation will begin in 30 seconds. If you wish to take someone with you, touch that person and he/she/it will join you.
"Reincarnation?" Natsu asked in a eerily silent manner. Natsu looked at the glowing book that projected those words.
10 seconds remaining
"No. No. Nonononon! This can't be fucking happening! Why am I not going back in time with Joan!?" Natsu bellowed in rage, the area around him began to melt.
5 seconds remaining
"Shit! Joan!" Natsu immediately used Re-equip to get switch all articles of clothing on him till he was stark naked while his left hand held onto a silver sphere which was inside cube.
0
Once the book displayed '0' the only thing Natsu could see was darkness.
"Here's the second twin Mr. Arc." Natsu heard a female voice talk. 'Did she just say Arc?'
"Thank you Doctor Hitome." A man's voice responded.
'What's going on?' Natsu asked as he felt himself getting placed into another person's hands and the said person began to 'talk' to him while walking some short distance.
"Isabella look at our son. Isn't he the cutest thing ever." The man made some weird noises that reminded Natsu of Mira whenever she found something cute.
"Jacques entertain Joan while I take a look at my little Natsu." Isabella said to her husband. Isabella was wearing a standard hospital gown, she had waist length curly blonde hair, a pale complexion and silver eyes. Isabella is a beautiful woman who looks like she was in her early 30s, but she was far older than that. Isabella was in her 60s.
"Ok he- wait what do you mean Natsu? I thought we were going to name him Jaune?" Jacques asked in a slightly panicked tone. Jacques d'Arc was wearing a white dress shirt, black slacks and dress shoes. Jacques was a handsome man with short shaggy blonde hair, a slightly tanned skin and ocean blue eyes. Like his wife, Jacques also looked like he was in his early 30s but was actually 62 years old.
"Hmm. I was planning on naming him Jaune...but I feel like he looks more like a Natsu, with the pink hair."
"But Natsu's a girl's name! Our son is going to bullied in school and no girl will ever like him!" Jacques whined to his wife.
"What did you say." Isabella's voice promised pain. Jacques immediately recognised that voice and began to deny any claims.
"No no no I meant his name's going to be Natsu. Truly it's a beautiful name, fitting for the Arc family."
'Wait did he just say Arc?...have I actually been reincarnated? But what happened to Joan is she the girl that Isabella and Jacques were talking about in the beginning? There are so many questions and I can't even open my eyes yet. Dammit.' Natsu thought calmly because he couldn't afford to act like an idiot, something was wrong and he didn't know what, he couldn't open his eyes and he didn't have any muscle strength to even move too much.
"But isn't it weird that he hasn't even cried?" Jacques asked his wife.
"Yes that is strange." Isabella said quietly as she observed the child in her hands.
"Well anyways the Doctor told me you are going to get discharged tomorrow, also April and May will be back from Beacon tomorrow, while June should return today from Signal Academy. Also I think my older sister and your sisters should be coming in a few days."
The silver eyed mother nodded her head, "What about Bianca and Hazel?"
"They were called for a mission in Atlas a few hours ago, they might not be here till the weekend." The male Arc spoke with pride at his two oldest daughters, not too long ago they had graduated from Beacon and already they were well known Huntresses.
"I see...is there something else you would like to tell me?" Isabella asked with narrow eyes.
"No, I don't think there's anything else. But anyways I'll let you rest, after all you must be very tired after giving birth to twins...again." Jacques gave his wife a kiss on her forehead before he opened to door to leave.
"I'll be here tomorrow to take you home." Jacques said, before following his words with small grin.
"And maybe we can try to get another son or daughter." The blonde Hunter added with a wink and smirk as he closed the door not before seeing his wife blush and glare at him. All the while he missed his new born son pale.
' He's already has 7 seven children, including me. How much more could he want?' Natsu thought as he felt like throwing up.
Time Skip
"Hey Zeref-nii is this the end? Are you going to leave me just like everyone else? Please big brother don't go." Natsu asked a almost dead Zeref. His voice was broken and hurt as small droplet of tears escaped his eyes.
Zeref Dragneel, once the world's strongest wizard, and creator of the Etherious was dying. Blood poured out of the wounds that littered his body, tears were running down Zeref's face as had his head on Natsu's lap.
"Haha *cough* you know all this I wanted you *cough* to call me big brother, and whe*cough*n you did I was planning on spending every moment *cough* that I could've had with *cough* you. I would te*cough*'ll you how much I*cough*wanted to see you." Zeref said his condition worsening.
Tears began to fall from Natsu's eyes like waterfall, he should've stayed with Zeref after the war against Alvarez, he should've stayed with his older brother, his saviour and blood family. He should've accepted Zeref when everyone else wanted to kill him, Zeref who have up so much for him, he is absolutely pathetic.
"Please. Zeref-nii forgive me, or don't want to lose you." Natsu cried, his tears were getting mixed with the rain.
"I love you Natsu..."
"Z-Zeref-nii? P-please don't do this it's not f-funny." Natsu begged cupping his older brother's face until he saw the lifeless crimson orbs that his brother possessed.
Snapping his eyes open Natsu noticed that he was in a room filled with toys, the ceiling had some he also noticed that he was in a crib with someone else...a girl that reminded him eerily of Joan.
'This must be Joan, my sister.' Natsu thought as he then noticed that his cheeks were wet.
'I was crying. Haha, after all this time, now I began to cry?' Natsu thought in disbelief.
'God dammit! Stop!' Natsu thought to himself as hot tears began to roll down his chubby cheeks, 'It hurts so much, every time I remember that, it never stops hurting.'
The door to the room opened slightly and a small 15 year old girl walked in, and noticed that her little brother was crying. This was June d'Arc having a small frame, barely 5'5ft in height she was the baby of the family, June had shoulder length blonde hair, a pale complexion like her mother, and sky blue eyes. She was currently wearing a green combat dress.
June walked to the crib where Natsu and Joan laid. The rest of the family had already met Joan when May's parents brought the twins home. Joan who was wide awake kept herself entertained with her older siblings and grandparents while the younger twin was passed out so they couldn't play with him.
"Auh is little Natchu~ crying. Well that's not good, but don't worry big sis June is here for little Natchu~" June assured the pinkette while making baby faces.
All the while Natsu looked at the girls in slight anger, 'Oi, idiot my name's Natsu not...not Natchu~!"
But of course June couldn't understand what Natsu was trying to say so she just assumed that Natsu wanted to go downstairs to eat, "So your hungry. Don't worry big sis June will take you to mother."
'Oh dear God fuck my life.' Natsu cursed slightly as he let himself be carried with a deadpan expression on his face as June walked out of the room and to the hallway which was filled with golden statutes, pictures and portraits.
'It seems like the Arcs got fancy.' Natsu thought with a approving nod. He really like the way everything was designed in the...castle?
'Actually is this a castle or a mansion?'
Of course since no one could answer that question, Natsu tried to memorize the area until he noticed that nothing was happening...he wasn't adapting to the situation like normal.
'No way...I can't sense my Aura, I can't even see June's Aura. What's going on?' Natsu mused, until everything clicked. He couldn't use Aura because he had his locked and would need someone to unlock it. But Natsu also felt slightly uncomfortable for some odd reason.
'Oh well I might as well enjoy being more human like, than godlike until I get my Aura unlocked...but I can still feel my Magic Reserves, so I won't be completely powerless.' Natsu allowed a giggle to escape on his lips, making June think that her little brother was absolutely adorable.
'I take all back! I can't live without Aura...I need my Aura dammit!'
Natsu was currently in his grandfather's hands he kept on tickling him and making him laugh. Natsu silently cursed wishing that he had Absolute Adaptability again, he could have adapted to the tickling within seconds. His grandfather, Julius d'Arc was an absolute terror with his fingers...it makes you wonder how he got so good. Natsu cast a glace at his grandmother and shivered at the thought. 'Bad thoughts. Stay away.'
Julius d'Arc looked like a man in his late 60s but in reality like his wife he was over 100 years old. He was a tall man standing at the height of 6'7, dark red eyes, a slight tan skin, and short grey hair, he also wore glasses and had a cane at his side. Julius was donning a white dress shirt with white slacks and white leather dress shoes.
Sitting beside him was his wife; Jeanne d'Arc. Jeanne's had vibrant blue eyes, a lighter skin tone than her husband and a slightly pink and grey hair tied in a bun. She wore a dark blue hoop dress and had a diamond necklace. Jeanne was around 6'5 in height.
Julius stopped tickling his grandson and silently observed him, something was off, he could tell after all spending 10 years in a warlike state, he could easily identify that there was something awkward about his grandson.
"Jacques, tell me don't you think that Natsu's a bit awkward." That easily got Isabella, May, Jeanne, April and June.
"Yeah I noticed something the first time I held him...it was like he was being constricted by something." The current head of the Arc family said.
"Hmm. Yes that's exactly what's happening. I've noticed this happening during the Great War, when we used to keep political prisoners, and it's a surprise that Natsu has something akin to Aura Negation." Julius said to his family, they all had confused expressions.
"Aura Negation occurs when someone has something blocking the Aura from spreading throughout ones body. It's similar to Aura restricting handcuffs but the only difference is that the handcuffs still allow Aura to spread through your body but Aura Negation just stops it...sometimes permanently." Julius explained making everyone look horrified, but if anyone had looked at Natsu they would have been terrified.
The pinkette's face had contorted into a mix of anger and despair, his sclera had turned black and his crimson eyes had began to glow. He had just been reincarnated just to waste his upcoming life. But his anger dissolved at the next words spoken by his grandfather.
"Is there a way to fix him?" April asked, her blue eyes looking at Natsu worryingly. April was 17 years old, and because she hasn't reached her prime, at 25, she would age like any other person who doesn't have access to Aura. April had a long strawberry blonde hair which reached her waist, a skin tone similar to her father and dark blue eyes. She wore a blue combat dress which was designed similarly to the rest of her sisters.
"Yes actually. I speculate that the only way to fix him would be by unlocking his Aura." Julius watched as his family members all let out a sigh of relief.
"Wow that's a relief, thanks gramps." May said her cobalt eyes shining with relief. May had a platinum blonde hair which she had styled in a ponytail. May like her twin had a skin tone similar to her father.
" Anyways shall I unlock Natsu's Aura or do you want to do it Jacques?" Julius asked his son.
"I'll do it." Julius nodded his head as Natsu went to the other Arc male's hand.
Jacques put one hand on Natsu's chest while the other hand was on his forehead, "For it is in passing that we achieve Victory. For we are the Arcs of wisdom, glory and power, that rises above all. Infinite in distance and unbound by death, I release your soul and allow you to manifest your dreams in this cruel world ."
'That's the exact same lines for the traditional Aura unlocking for the Dragneels. All they did was change the name from Dragneels to Arcs, and Destruction to Victory.' Natsu noted his eyes twitching in slight anger.
Once Jacques finished the chant Natsu glowed a bright crimson color, the light he gave off began to encompass the entire living room, making everyone gasp in shock at the amount of Aura the little Arc possessed.
"W-woah." May gasped.
"Little Natchu isn't as little as I thought." June said in awe.
"Shit."
"Mom...that's the first time I've ever heard you curse." April commented.
"Amazing..." Jeanne said her eyes were wide.
"Terrifying. He has such a terrifying amount of potential that I can't help but feel excited at the prospect of seeing him in his prime." Julius spoke, his heart was beating at the idea of fighting his grandson. The old Arc couldn't wait to see how powerful the boy would get over time.
"He'll surpass all of us in Aura capacity in a few years." Jacques chuckled, "It's absolutely unbelievable that he has such an abnormal amount of Aura."
The other people in the room couldn't help but agree with Jacques, there was no doubt about it, Isabelle d'Arc had given birth to a prodigy. And there was no doubt about the fact that Natsu d'Arc was born with the highest amount of Aura ever recorded for a person who wasn't a Hunter.
Raven Branwen opened the door to her daughters' room. Today she was going to leave the pathetic man that got her pregnant along with her youngest daughter.
The (R) of team STRQ walked into her daughters' room to see one them for the last time. She couldn't help but feel a little bad, she was planning on abandoning her own blood because she couldn't stand the weak man that fathered them and the fact that the youngest inherited his more of his looks than the older one who looked like a mini her. Walking to the crib that held her twin Raven noticed that her blonde daughter was irritating her brunette daughter with her constant giggling.
The moment the blonde baby noticed her she began to giggle in excitement, while the brunette observed her, something that Raven noticed.
"Well since you two are awake I might as well tell you, not that you'd understand anyways...I'm leaving one of you to your pathetic father." Raven said uncaringly with a slight glare, her youngest daughter began to cry while her other daughter just narrowed her eyes.
Raven almost smiled at her first daughter, she was like her, it was obvious the moment she had unlocked the brunette's Aura, which was higher than most veteran hunters, that she too would live a life feared and misunderstood by others just like she had. But it wasn't that much of a surprise after all her oldest was the only child she could bring herself to feel any sort of affection for.
Raven picked up the brunette while leaving the crying blonde in the crib, Raven opened up a portal and walked in just as Taiyang and Qrow walked into the room...from that day on Taiyang and Yang Xiao Long would have no connection to Raven and Zeref Branwen.
Next Update- February 21st, Easy Training & Schnee Party (Natsu)
Well guys and girls, I hope you liked the beginning of Reincarnation. As you have read both Natsu and Zeref have been reincarnated into two different families so I can have Natsu x Zeref (NaRef, NatZer, Cursed Dragon, Zertsu, ZerNa) like seriously does this crack pairing even have a ship name. But too be honest I still would've had Natsu x Zeref regardless of the blood relationship and whatnot.
Oh well forget about that, anyways I want to know how you guys liked this story, was it good, Okay or shit, also I will accept criticism. So please review, honestly it really motivates me to write more for you guys and helps me improve as a writer.
[Natsu's Harem: Fem-Zeref, Pyrrha, Raven, Joan,...] I'll need to think about the other girls and I am willing to accept suggestions. But they CANNOT be from the Fairy Tail universe. Honestly I've already reincarnated 3 good guys and 2 evil guys so please don't make me over use the reincarnation card.
You guys won't find out who the two additional antagonists are until later on in the story.
~Natsu vi Kurosaki
