Natsu Dragneel vs. Sabertooth is a fight fought between Fairy Tail Mage Natsu Dragneel, multiple unnamed Sabertooth Mages, Dobengal, and their Guild Master: Jiemma.

Prologue[]

Natsu, along with Happy, chases after Yukino after she left the hotel where Team Fairy Tail A reside. Yukino notices Natsu running towards her. Natsu then apologizes for misunderstanding her as a bad person. Yukino wonders why he chased her all the way there just to apologize to her with Natsu saying she looks melancholic. She suddenly falls to her knees and begins to cry for the kindness that Natsu has showed her. Yukino tells him all about her excommunication from Sabertooth and what happened to her, saying she has never felt so humiliated and the fact that she doesn't have anywhere else to go. Natsu, after hearing Yukino's story and the pain she had gone through, gets mad at the Sabertooth guild.[1]
