As far as I could remember, in the Story of Zeref, 400 years ago, while he is a student, it shows there that he invented magic, brilliant magic, but his teachers says that it is not for good. Like it needs sacrifices in order for his inventions to be of use. One of those invention, if I haven't forgotten, is the Eclipse. Your assessment of the story is good, actually I liked it. Maybe, he secretly used Eclipse to bring Natsu to the future. There he was found by Igneel. As all dragons have a high level of intelligence, as said by Wendy in Tenroujima Arc, Igneel felt, thought, and saw that Natsu is full of ethernanos, because in the past, Natsu is the younger brother of Zeref, Zeref tried to resurect his brother. Igneel tried to destroy Natsu before because maybe the body of Natsu is consist of dark magic. BUt Igneel couldn't destroy it, instead he reared it as his own child. You said something in ruins, maybe that is during Laxus started the Battle of Fairy Tail, Freed made runes, the one you said is ruins, correct me if I am wrong, not only Natsu can get out of it but also Gajeel, will that also mean that Gajeel is also a being in the past? How about Wendy? Natsu did absorbed many elements, he even absorbed the Holy Light Etherion. Gajeel is an Iron Dragon Slayer but he also absorbed Shadows making him a Shadow Iron Dragon Slayer. Maybe natsu can absorbed the lightning, because a lightning can trigger fire. (That's my thought.)
