A Railgun in Fairy Tail, Book 1: Shocking Beginnings

The Hydra's Game

Natsu fell back into the canyon floor creating a rocky crater where he landed as his evil double laughed maniacly.

"HAHAHAHAHAHA!!" Shouted Anti-Natsu. "Come on you idiots!!! I'll destroy everyone!!!"

Happy flew over to dazed Natsu as he got out of the crater. "You know Natsu, there isn't that much of a difference between you and your evil twin personality wise."

"What makes you say that?" Natsu asked.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! DESTROY DESTROY DESTROY." shouted Anti-Natsu maniacly as he blew flames into the air from his cackling mouth.

"Just a feeling."

"You know Happy." said Natsu with a grin. "I just noticed something that good looking over there doesn't have."

"An amazingly cute partner with wings?"

"Bingo!!"

Happy flew over grabbed Natsu's back, and flew into the air with him.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" laughed Natsu pointing at the Anti-Natsu below. "Watcha going to do now ya good looking jerk!?"

Anti-Natsu smiled evily. He was suddenly cloaked not just in flames, but an intense crackling cloak of yellow electricity as well.

"No way!" said Natsu. "That's-"

"FIre Thunder Dragon mode!!" Happy finished.

"ROAR OF THE FIRE THUNDER DRAGON!!!" Anti-Natsu let out an intense whirlwind of flame and electricity from his mouth that Natsu and Happy were barely able to dodge in mid air.

"The difference between you and me.." said Anti-Natsu. "Is that I never hold back when it comes to killing my foes. Idiots like you originals who never kill the guys they beat....have no choice but to hold back and suppress their true strength. Face it! You're no match for me!!"

"You call not killing an enemy weakness!?" Natsu growled. "Listen up pal, we don't spare  our foes because we're some kind of sissies. We do it because we are strong. Real strength is about having the guts to hold back and believe that whoever you fight is still human, and therefore the same. Knowing to hold back on someone you know is kin whether or not you're in the same guild, that's what being strong is about. Not your lame ass idea of brutal massacreing."

Natsu suddenly began to glow with a powerful flame, and an intense cloak of yellow lightning also engulfed him. "With you however, I'll make an exception. Not only are you not me, but you're not even real, you're just a phantom who's trying to throw off from what really matters......protecting my friends! So I'll play your little Hydra's game......And beat you up with all the strength I have left!!"

"Yeah!? said Anti-Natsu. "Well then bring it on punk!!!"

Both Natsu's forearms and fists became engulfed in a powerful mix of fire and lightning and they came at each other, Natsu striking from the air and Anti-Natsu striking from below.

"Firing Hammer of the Fire Thunder Dragon!!!!"

When the moves collided, a powerful blast of flame and electricity engulfed the area they were in blowing a massive crater in the side of the Canyon and causing a massive avalanche to start falling towards them.

Both Natsu and Anti-Natsu backed away from each other thanks to the rebound from the intense attack and looked at the oncoming stampede of boulders. Natsu grinned.

"Bet you wish you had wings now huh!?"

Anti-Natsu growled furiously, Jumped up, and grabbed Natsu's legs.

"Hey!! Get off!!" Natsui shouted furiously. "Get your own Happy you jerk!!"

As the rocks tumbled in a dust cloud below them, Anti-Natsu puffed of his cheeks in preparation for a Roar attack.
