002 | Video | February 4th (afternoon)

[dragneel]

[ The feed begins with Natsu slamming his fist into the wall -- the plaster cracking and crumbling beneath it. Hell. It probably provides a view into Lucy's apartment now. But he doesn't seem to care, dislodging his fist and keeping his gaze away from the mirror. ]

All of these people, taken right under our noses -- and there wasn't a goddamn thing we could do to stop it. [ His words are calm but dangerous, and after narrowing his eyes on something unseen, he finally casts a glance at the communicator. ]

I need a weapon. I'm going to rescue her -- rescue ALL of 'em! And if a weapon's the only goddamn way to unlock your fighting potential in this world, I need one for this mission 'cause I ain't sittin' back and lettin' anything happen again! I'm used to usin' fire, but I don't give a shit what kinda weapon you are. We'll work it out in the training area before we leave. If we got the same resolve, 'm sure we can overcome everything -- even resonance.

[ He pauses, lingering in silence. A look of determination slowly takes place on his features when he speaks again. ]

That BREW thing made me a meister for a reason, and even though I'd wanted to be a weapon from the start -- I'll step up and embrace what I am here, what you guys made me, and fight with everything I got to keep those important people safe. That's the kind of thing you can expect of a mage from Fairy Tail!

I guess it's a good thing that I've already volunteered, then.

[Video]

[dragneel]

Erza. [ The anger breaks from his face and becomes a knowing grin. ]

Heh. I figured you would. There's no chance of 'em winning this time with us on the job!

[Video]

[redhairedknight]

Of course - I can't allow this sort of thing continue. So who was kidnapped? [She knows it's not Lucy - she would have heard about that already, if that was the case.]

[clowned]

Why would you rather be a Weapon?

[dragneel]

Just seemed like the stronger of the two options, ya know? A weapon can turn their arms into a blade or somethin'. As a meister, I feel like I can't do anything unless I got a weapon.

[clowned]

I guess. [ although he sounds skeptical. ] But that depends on what your weapon form is, while a meister can choose the weapon he wants to resonate with.

[The boy in the video reminds her a lot of somebody back home. Somebody who could be downright reckless when others were in danger. It's all too nostalgic, and it spurs Haruka to speak up.]

I'm sorry, I know we don't know each other, but... please try to stay safe. Ish.

[Video]

[dragneel]

Heh! Don't worry about me. This fight'll be nothin' so we'll have plenty of time to get to know each other when it's done!

What's your name?

[Video]

[hoennmaihime]

I'd like that, Mr...? My name's Haruka.

[A small smile.]

I won't worry if you promise not to underestimate them.

[video]

[quibbling]

I'm not a Weapon, but I hope you succeed. BREW makes good choices when it comes to what you are.

[video]

[dragneel]

But what if most everyone you meet's a meister? That ain't gonna be very handy in a battle.

[Video]

[snipingyourfail]

Technically, we didn't make you, but I'm glad to see such excellent fighting spirit, nevertheless.

[Video]

[dragneel]

Definitely glad to help y'guys out here.

Just....weapons seem cooler. That's all.

[video]

[wildcardette]

There are things you can do if you're not a Weapon, definitely. But I'm sure you'll find someone to help you out - there are lots of other people who want to get friends back on this mission.

[video]

[dragneel]

Yeah. S'what I'm countin' on. With those people waitin' for us to come help 'em out, there ain't really any time to waste.

You going on the mission?

[Video]

[purrinpumpkin]

Bet'cha wish you went after that sword now, huh?~

[Video]

[dragneel]

That sword....?

[ Give him a moment. ]

OH YEAH! I forgot about that! Thought I found it in the park but it turns out it was just some guy messin' around.

[video]

[malandragem]

[Now that's the kind of attitude Fabiola can get behind.]

A commendable sentiment, Natsu. I am glad to see that the role you have been handed will not deter you from protecting others in whatever manner you are able.

I certainly wish you luck in your efforts.

[video]

[dragneel]

Heh! Thanks, Fab....Fabu....Fabulousa!

You going too?

[guilds]

[ This is ... just like home. Thinking that, she can't help but get pumped up. ]

That's just like you, Natsu.

★ VIDEO;

[dragneel]

[ What about that hole in your wall, Lucy? Is that just like home too? But Natsu is currently in serious mode, eyes narrowed. ]

Those people're countin' on us. I won't let 'em down.

[ video ]

[nolicenseyet]

We'll definitely get them back.

[She definitely believes that.]

[ video ]

[dragneel]

'course we will! I ain't gonna stop 'til they're back in this place and safe. Those witches're gonna regret messin' with us.

[ video ]

[this_is_keron]

[Oh, it's the kid who can't tell the difference between geurilla and gorilla. Still, Giroro has a soft spot for people with fighting spirits actually he has a soft spot for a lot of things BUT NO ONE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT.]

Hn. Don't get yourself killed out there.

[ video ]

[dragneel]

Heh! Don't worry. I ain't plannin' on dying 'til I'm at least a hundred thousand years old like Crimply!

[ And by Crimply he means Qilby. ]
