As Natsu was heading towards the branch, the Moltopus saw him and decided to close in on him. Natsu finally got to the top of the branch as he untied the rope on his waist and tree branch. Since Natsu wasn't sure which side is solid or swampy, he tied the other end of the rope to his other knife, as he then decided to swing on the trees instead of walking. Suddenly the Moltopus hit the tree he was on, making it to shake. Natsu Lost balance as he almost fell off, but he stabbed the branch in the nick of time which helped him not to fall. As Natsu looked down, he saw the beast trying to climb the tree. He immediately climbed the branch well using his knife and tried standing on it. "It's now or never" Natsu said as he took a deep breath and then swung the rope, as he threw it shouting, "Stretch" Immediately the rope wrapped itself around the tree branch, Natsu shouted, "Return to original size" which made the rope pull him towards the tree branch. The Moltopus saw this and enter
"Shittttttt!!!!! I wasn't prepared for this!!!" Natsu thought as he entered into the swamp. As he was heading towards the Moltopus, Natsu thought, "How in the world would I fight something I can't see" "How would I know if it's far or close to me, or when it's throwing brutal attacks to me, or when it lunches deadly attacks" Suddenly Natsu felt something hit him as the Moltopus used one of its tentacles to do so. Although the tentacles was pushing Natsu away, unfortunately for him, the rope still continued pulling him causing the force to intensify, making Natsu to be in more pain as he slides on the tentacles, and continued heading towards the edges of the rope. "How in the world I'm I going to fight this thing!!!" Natsu screamed in his head. "Damn it, I'm in serious pains, plus I don't think I'll last here for long, because I'm almost out of breath" "I wasn't prepared for this, and the worst part was that I didn't hold my breath well enough, so I'm already suffocating, which m
It moved back a little because of fear as it was hearing tree branches moving from all directions. The beast began to move around and suddenly Natsu flew towards it and kicked it right in the face and swung away. The beast became cautious and began to look around the forest, this time as Natsu flew towards it, it used its hands to block the impact making it slide on the ground as Natsu disappeared. Natsu realized that the beast was smart so he decided to change his attack pattern. "It looks like the beast isn't going to go down that easily, and the worst part is that it's learning my attack pattern, so I have to change the way I approach it" "Using my legs would wear me out, plus, increase my pain which means that I have to use something that is going to give it permanent damage" "I'll just use my blade to cut it, it should cause it enough pain to weaken it, making it easier to kill" Natsu thought as he was swinging around. This time as Natsu launched himself towards the beast,
The bird tried to shake Natsu off by performing stunts, but Natsu had a strong grip on its feather, so he remained on the bird, but later noticed something on its neck as the bird was moving. "It looks like there is something on its neck" "Is this one of the valuable items they were talking about" "How do I get it out of this bird" "Now that I think of it, I have to get close to it to be sure if it's a collar or just its feather" Natsu thought while trying to move towards the place, as he remembered that the bird had lots of goldish markings on it. While he was heading towards its neck, the wind made it hard for him to move as the feathers began blocking his view, making it difficult to reach its neck. Suddenly, the bird started heading straight towards the clouds, which made it difficult for Natsu to breathe. "Should I take advantage of this, if I let go, it would be easier for me to reach its neck, but if this goes wrong, I'll fall off this bird, and who knows what will happen
"Does this mean that it was affected by the attack on its neck?" Natsu thought as he looked at its neck. "Blood is flowing through it, and what's that symbol on it?" Natsu said as he observed it. The beast began to breathe heavily after what happened. Natsu made the rope harden as he thought "If I do this, the beast won't feel any pressure pulling its hands together, but it won't be able to separate it, which would make it give up, so that when I use stretch, it won't struggle" The beast struggled to free its hands but couldn't, suddenly, the beast began flying recklessly. The beast flew very high up to the clouds as it closed its wings and started falling, facing its hands and tail towards the ground, which meant it was going to land with its front. This made Natsu unease as he thought, "What does it think it's doing?" "Don't tell me it's thinking of landing on the ground from this height, cause if it does, we'll both die" "I'm sure this beast doesn't want to die" "Yeah, it's
Meanwhile during the Hunters exam, it was remaining few contestants since most of them failed the exams and was disqualified. "Where is Natsu and what's he doing?" "Doesn't he know that he's running out of time" "They are only few people remaining here and the worst part is that the people remaining are pretty strong" "Come on Natsu, you have to get here fast" "But I need to make the exam last a little bit longer so that he would be able to meet up, but how?" Yami thought. "What are you thinking about? Don't tell me your nervous about the exam" Kazuko said as she came close to Yami. "You got me" Yami said as he stood up from the bench he was on. "Pathetic, I can't believe you're scared of those beast" Kazuko said. "Wow miss perfect, aren't you seeing the amount of contestants that have been disqualified. The worst part of it is that they aren't lasting that long, and Mister Gildart is always disqualifying people, even though they are in perfect shape. Do you really think this
Natsu was panting as he was riding a gigantic dog that was pretty hairy. He was on its head close to its ears so that he would be able to see where he's going. "Faster, I don't have much time and I'm running out of meat" "I'm so happy I found this beast after I killed that huge fish and sliced it into little pieces" "I wanted to use the fish as trail not to get lost, or go around in circles, and also to attract a beast I could ride on. But lucky for me, I found this one drinking water from the stream, and led it to the place I kept little remains, as I then got unto it since it was distracted" "Since then, I've been throwing meats in front of it for it to go where I want" "But how do I make it go faster, I really wish I was riding a bird, it would have made it more easier to navigate through this forest" Natsu thought as the beast was running through the forest. As Natsu was moving, he saw a large eagle fly pass him as it made a loud noise while passing them. "This might just be
The spider wasn't as big as the other monsters that Natsu have been fighting, although, it was still very big. The spider bent it's back and shot white silky webs towards Natsu. The webs stuck to Natsu back. As the webs touched Natsu back he shouted "ROS" but the webs was stopping him since it was really sticky. Natsu knew that if he doesn't do anything, he would be eaten alive so he shouted "Ultimate ROS" which shot him above the hole as the sole of his shoe and back of his jacket pulled out. As Natsu was flying he shouted "Stretch" which made him go very high into the air. Natsu took a deep breath as he steadied himself on the air using his hand signals. "The webs are really sticky, so how am I meant to move around?" "I can't step on that thing with my bare legs, if I do that, my leg might pull out" "I should cover my legs with the remaining part of my jacket" Natsu thought as he removed the sleeves and wrapped it around his legs. "Okay, S" Natsu said as he entered into the
As they arrived at Natsu's area, he was escorted to the field as Gildart and the rest watched from a different room. Natsu was fighting in a large room filled with pillars as Gildart thought, "They stole my ideas, I can't believe they would do such a thing, I thought that man said they prepared everything already" as he let out a deep breath. As Natsu was standing in the room looking around, a beast from the other side came into the field. The beast was a blue and white three headed dog with fox like appearance, and it emitted lots of magic energy as it entered into the room. "That beast looks pretty powerful, I wonder if he would be able to survive this fight?" Kazuko thought. "I think you guys went too far in this exam, I mean just look at him, he isn't in any condition to fight that kind of beast" Asahu said as Mitsuki replied, "You might be right about that, but no one expected him to be that injured
"Yami!" Kazuko, Asahu, Mitsuki and Kaikuh shouted as they saw what happened."He's tough so you guys don't need to worry about him" Gildart said as his hands were folded while watching the fight."Dr Mayumi, I have a favor to ask, please can you heal them" Gildart asked."You don't have any right to tell me what to do, but since you said a favor guess I can help out, although that just means you're indebted to me" Dr Mayumi replied."Fine" Gildart replied."Good, we now have a deal" Dr Mayumi said happily."Okay kids, I'll advise you to follow Dr Mayumi so that you can be ready for stage 3 of the exams" Gildart said."But sir..." Kazuko replied as Gildart immediately shouted, "That's an order, and if you don't go, you'd be disqualified"Kazuko, Asahu and Mitsuki said nothing as they bent there heads and followed Dr Mayumi."Sir I can stay right, besides, you have no reason to chase me out of here" Kaiku
Kazuko finally arrived at the watch room as Dr Mayumi said, "You got me worried there for a sec, those were some slick moves""Really" Kazuko said as she scratched her head and smiled in embarrassment."If you need medical care, you can go to the..." Dr Mayumi said as Kazuko interrupted her and said, "I'm sorry but I have to see Yami's fight, hope you don't mind.""It's no biggie, just make sure you don't push yourself too much, okay" Dr Mayumi said."Yes ma'am" Kazuko replied."Okay it's time for our last contestant to fight, come on Yami, let's go to your battle field" Gildart said excited and happily as they left that area.While they were going, Kazuko went close to Yami as she took a deep breath and said, "I know I didn't buy you as much time as you need, but...""It's fine, besides, I'm glad you're alright, that's all that matters right now" Yami said as he smiled at her."Really" Kazuko asked being shocke
The beam landed on the ground and caused a large explosion as it destroyed the whole area. "This can't be" Mitsuki said as she fell on her knees. "She's gone" Asahu said. Yami clutched his fits in fury as he thought "Come on Kazuko, you've always been the proudest among all of us, you can't go now" as he screamed "Come on Kazuko! What do you think you're doing? Win this already!!!" As the light disappeared, they all sensed a powerful magic energy as Kazuko said "I told you, your puny attacks won't work on me!!! It's time to get really serious" "Kazuko!!!" They all shouted with joy. "She survived that. She's really something" Gildart thought. "I now understand why they gave her this beast to fight, it's to test how strong she can truly get. It's amazing how she's been holding back for so long, I was starting to think the host this year were cruel" the stage 2 instructor thought. Kazuko screamed as she fle
During Natsu's fight with the spiders, Kazuko just stepped into the fighting space for her exams. Kazuko was in a plain field filled with little grasses as she looked up to see the clear blue sky while the wind blew, making her hair and cloth to move. "What kind of creature would she be fighting?" Yami thought as he watched Kazuko. He saw an eagle fly past her, as it made a loud noise and landed behind her. Kazuko turned back and looked at the eagle and thought, "I'm fighting an eagle, I thought this was going to be hard, but guess I was lucky" Kazuko let down her guard seeing it's an eagle and shouted, "I thought my exam was meant to be as tough as the others" Gildart spoke through the microphone and said, "Don't underestimate your opponent, just because it's an eagle doesn't mean it's weak" "Well it's time for your exam to begin, hope you are ready" Gildart said as he turned towards the stage 2 instructor. "Okay
"I guess this is our punishment for abandoning that boy" the young man said."Hey!!! Grab on!!!!!" Natsu screamed as he swung pass the bees towards them.They were all surprised to see him coming towards them as the other boy said "But how, he's meant to be dead"The young man ran and picked up the cutting boy as he shouted "Let's go!!!"The shiny boy picked the other boy up as him and the young man ran towards Natsu.Natsu stretched his hands towards them and grabbed the young man, while the shiny boy jumped and held Natsu in his waist region, as the other boy grabbed Natsu’s leg, so that the shiny boy can hold tight onto Natsu.Natsu bit his teeth in pain as the rope became too tight on his hand due to the weight, as he tried to hold on.The rope was wrapped on Natsu hands and went towards his waist, as blood began flowing through his hands.The young man noticed Natsu facial expressions as he thought "He's in
Meanwhile, the other contestants are been chased by some strange bees as they tried jumping over vines while moving around the forest, trying to get away from them."Fire ball, Exploding Stars" the shiny boy said as he turned towards the bees and shot lots of small shiny balls.As soon as the bees came in contact with it, the little balls exploded which caused a chain reaction, causing the whole place to be covered in flames."We're safe!" The other boy shouted as he saw the explosions."No we're not!" The shiny boy replied."Yeah, do you think those pathetic little balls would stop them!" The cutting boy said."Why don't you attack them mister hotshot!" The shiny boy replied."Sure no problem!" The cutting boy said as bees emerged from the explosion."Well it's now or never to try that attack!" The young man said as he was carrying the three girls on his shoulder while running."Cutting magic, Ultimate
Natsu spun himself as he was entering into the hole, which made him move like a drill as he started becoming dizzy.As he went inside, the spiders shot webs towards him which stopped him.One of the spiders rushed towards Natsu, but before it could do anything, the giant spider made a loud noise which made the spider to stop, as the gigantic spider started moving towards him."What's going on? It looks like I over spun myself" Natsu thought as he opened his eyes and noticed everything around him moving.Natsu heard a weird loud noise and thought "My ears! Wait, I can't move my body, don't tell me I'm stuck"Natsu closed his eyes and took a deep breath as he tried to stop feeling dizzy while thinking "I need to balance myself, plus, I don't have much time remaining, and who knows how much time I've spent fighting this thing?""Would I be able to get to the Hunters exam before it finishes?""I don't know, but I need to fin
"Are you hearing yourself! You can't fight those beasts on your own, you would just die, especially in the shape you're in" the water girl said."She's right, they're pretty strong. Plus, your outnumbered, there's no way you would win" the young man said.The rest just looked at him in amusement of his stupidity."I know I can't win them on my own, that's why I want to ask you guys for help" Natsu said as he bowed his head."Hell nah!" one of the girls said."Yeah, are you crazy! Do you think we would just go back inside just because you asked" one of the boys said."Yeah he's right, even with our numbers, we can't win against them" the other girl said feeling pretty shy."I don't want you guys to follow me inside, all I want is for the cutting guy and the light person to help enchant my blades, so I would be able to see and easily cut them" Natsu said still bowing his head."You can't still win with that, you'r
