Well now here we are again...Welcome back to my fanfic:"To Forgive and Forget". I am so happy to have gotten good reviews on my last chapter despite how short and little detailed it was (to me at least). Also before i forget, huge shout out to 25NaMi for posting my story on the greatest NaMi community on this site!

Alright then, now maybe to clear some confusion (if there is any) this is after the edolas and post tenrou arc if you haven't figured that out. Now to begin chapter 2 of…

To Forgive and Forget

"Phew..alright looks like those guys were just a little bit tougher than i thought happy" stated the salmon haired dragon slayer. Our hero was just ever so worn out, while he was expecting a fight from the dark guild he was hired to take down, he wasn't aware that the guild would put up such a mass amount of resistance… apparently there 50 wizards in said guild. At first he was seemingly overwhelmed, but he somehow managed to luck out as the dark mages seemed to hit each other while trying to strike at Natsu.

"You had me worried there for a while Natsu". Happy said with a frown, The blue cat was frightened when he saw the number of mages Natsu would have to battle. However Happy still had the utmost confidence in his surrogate father no matter how dire the situation our protagonist seemed to get in.

"Yeah sorry about that buddy, but if it makes you feel better, i think we've done enough jobs to get ourselves into the trails, so once we turn in the job i say we just head home and relax a bit." Natsu said letting out a soothing deep breath to happy who seemed to have immediately perked up at the sound of relaxation, the duo had been out and about for a day, so the blue cat definitely liked the sound of that."Aye sir, that's a great idea Natsu….do you think you can get me a fish too." Happy asked with little cat eyes. "Hmmm sure Happy why not, once we get back to the guild I'll be sure to ask Mir- oh wait Mira is on that escort job with Elfman and Lisanna…." just as the words exited Natsu's mouth he immediately began to think about the strauss siblings. 'I sure hope you guys are alright'

"Oh yeah, i almost forgot about that Natsu...oh well then we can go fishing then after we turn-in the job request" stated Happy with his paw raised and a smile on his face. Natsu gave his furry companion a nod of agreement and both continued their march to the greatest guild in fiore.

Before the blue cat and salmon haired buddy's knew it they were right in front of the fairy tail guild hall doors. Of course with his classic entrance Natsu kicked open the doors and shouted "IM BACKKKK!"

However... instead of the usual shouts of welcoming he was greeted with a certain scarlet haired swordswoman blade just whiffing his cheek as his instincts kicked in to dodge as the sword embedded itself into the wooden guild walls. "HEY what's the big idea Erza, that was way too close for joke!" Natsu shouted out in shock and a hint of anger that one of his guildmates, especially Erza would attack him like that without warning. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHAT'S THE BIG IDEA, HOW DARE YOU COME BACK SMILING AFTER WHAT YOU'VE DONE!" Erza screamed with anger and some tears in her left eye. Natsu at this point was beyond confused 'what the hell is she talking about, that job wasn't an S-class quest, so what could she be mad about' as Natsu was still bewildered about Erza's actions, he failed to see Gray freeze his feet to the guild floors and make chain links that wrapped around his wrists that also connected to the floor. "OW, WHAT THE HELL GRAY!" Natsu raged with some pain, he was still worn out from the rough job he took so he couldn't use his magic to simply melt the ice around his feet and wrists.

Throughout all of Happy was just as shocked as Natsu, the blue cat had no idea why Gray and Erza were acting this way to his best friend and decided to speak up " GUYS what are you doing please tell Natsu and I why!" Erza immediately responded "BECAUSE NATSU DESTROYED SOLEANNA, THE TOWN JUST EAST OF HERE!"

If Natsu wasn't confused before, well he certainly was now. "I destroyed soleanna? I haven't even heard of that town before Erza, also just ask Happy I'm sure he hasn't either and he can tell you that all we did was head to clover town and back to finish our job." Natsu stated while turning his head to look at happy asking for help with his eyes. " Natsu's right Erza, I haven't heard of that soleanna place and me and Natsu did exactly what he said, just go to clover town and back." Happy tried to explain to Erza but it seemed she was dead set on what she was told by the rune knights when the walked in not 3 hours earlier ready to apprehend Natsu Dragneel for the destruction of Soleanna.

"How could you Natsu… HOW COULD YOU JUST MURDER EVERYONE LIKE THAT!" Erza continued to rage out at the fire dragon slayer. "The rune knights only managed to find one survivor, and he discribed you perfectly, A pink haired teen with a black cut open vest, white baggy pants with black sandals….fire Magic but most importantly a white scaly scarf." Gray suddenly stated with a malicious growl towards the end. Natsu now was beyond shocked 'WHA- But there is no way that it was me' just as he was in thought he felt a strong amount of magic behind him almost suffocating him, he just gathered the strength to turn his head and saw the elder Master of Fairy Tail: Makarov Dreyer.

"Natsu… please tell me why, why would you do such a thing to innocent people." Makarov said in a low and very disappointed voice. "Gramps i swear i didn't do it, i've been telling you all the truth, i've never been anywhere near Soleanna, please gramps you gotta believe me". Natsu at this point was feeling hurt that not even the Master of Fairy Tail, the man who took him in and brought him to this wonderful guild, the man who acknowledges as all the members as his own children , would not believe him.

"Natsu, i don't want to believe it either but there is just so much evidence stacked against you that there is no way that you are getting out of this one, not on a situation like this….now please tell us the truth Natsu". The old master was slightly tearing up but also had some rage in his low voice that the boy would not confess to such a crime. Natsu was not faring any better as tears were starting to spill " I am telling the truth gramps… please *sniff* I didnt do it" Natsu sobbed, just as he finished his plea, the guild doors opened to reveal Rune knights with a carriage outside. The first to step into the guild was none other than Lahar who then said " We are here to apprehend Natsu Dragneel on account of the destruction of Soleanna". Hearing this Natsu decided to make one last plea to his guildmates...his family "Please guys...i'm begging you to believe me.. I didn't do it.. I swear." Natsu said surprisingly calmly but with tears streaming down his face.

"Take him away please" were the words spoken out of Mararov Dreyer….the words that broke the spirit of Natsu Dragneel. Natsu was the properly chained by the Rune knights, all the while tears flowing from his eyes. Natsu was then thrown placed into the carriage to be transported to an undisclosed prison for now. "His trail will be in two days if you want to try and prove his innocence, however i don't see that happening" Lahar said as he walked out the guild hall to ensure the successful transportation of Natsu Dragneel to prison.

Natsu still crying his eyes out while lying on the floor of the carriage began to think ' How… how can they just hand me off just like that, how can they not believe me… after everything we've been through' As Natsu began to recall all the memories he shared with each and every one of his friends he then came to a realization. 'WAIT GAJEEL, WENDY, LEVY, LUCY AND MIRA, LISANNA AND ELFMAN WEREN'T THERE!' He thought eye wide. 'They have to be the ones to believe me….they just have to.' and with these last thoughts, Natsu fell into a slumber out of exhaustion from today's and the previous day's events.

WOW and that's a wrap for this chapter guys...now this one i am much more proud of. I felt as if i gave more descriptive detail. Now here i'm thinking after two more chapters is where the real action will begin...depending on how much i right errr type i suppose hehe.

Never the less i hope you all enjoyed this chapter, again please give me them reviews, just incase im doing something wrong, you can tell me through a review and i will be sure to correct it in the next chapter.

Well then, until next time :) -DDL
