To love or to hate your enemy
A haunt that invades my trembling eyes With a thousand boundless tears That quivers through the night. by Musatpha Mohammed.

Chains. They can do many good things but just as many bad things. You can be chained to someone with a bond so unbreakable, God and only God can break it. Yet just as they chain to someone, they can chain your freedom so tightly, Death and only Death can break it.
Lucy Heartfilla stared at chains that pooled around her feet like a snake wrapped up lovingly around against its owner. She smirked at the ironic thought because she was chained next to the red haired snake lover, Cobra.
Lucy slowly lifted her gaze from the filthy floor to see the other few occupants that shared the prison vehicle with her. Starting at the very entrance of the vehicle was an extremely lifeless looking Laxus, who was bleeding profusely from a large slash cross his chest. In all honesty, things went looking great for him.
Next to him was Mirajane crying softly into his shoulder knowing that he may not survive this ordeal. That what it was like in the prison vehicle. Either you were unconscious and had life threatening wounds or you weeping for the ones that while dealing with your own.
The rest of the occupants consisted of Natsu, Levy, Gajeel, Erza, Gray, Evergreen, Wendy, Cana and the twin dragons of Sabertooth; Sting and Present Rogue.
Lucy was quickly jolted out of her thoughts as the over-crammed prison vehicle hit what seem to be a bump in the road. Soon the said vehicle slowed to a stop…
They waited, for what seem like an eternity, thinking about what will become of them once they enter the palace of the Dragon King…
The doors of the vehicle was suddenely yanked opened.
The silence of the one extremely lively Fairy Tail only became more deafening. But, all too quickly, the silence shattered as the guards rushed into the vehicle grabbing each member harshly before dragging them off the vehicle.
"NO, PLEAS-PLEASE…STOP!" Mirajane wailed as the guards dropped Laxus to the ground, "He…HE NEEDS HELP!" But she was knocked out unconscious by the guards.
One by one, the remaining members of Fairy Tail along with Cobra Sting and Present Rogue, were lined up, some being held up by the others; all expect Lucy.
Lucy blankly stared at the guards, 'had they forgotten about me… No, life not that simple' Lucy thought.
In her peripheral vision, Lucy saw the guards, still stationed outside, visibly tensed. Lucy started to shake feeling a cold presence drawing near to her.
Lucy snapped her eyes closed as she heard someone step into the vehicle. She squeezed her eyes closed, so tightly she knew it would leave dots in vision when opened, as the presence drew ever closer to her.
"You know we can open your eyes, I won't bite… well not that much anyways" said a frightening familiar voice.
Suddenly Lucy felt cold fingers play with her hair causing her eyes to open in surprise, only to stare into crimson eyes…
Rogue, (the future one) the Dragon King, leaned in closer to Lucy, almost nose to nose. The feel of his breath on Lucy's face caused to franticly tug to her chains like a fear-filled animal.
"Don't be scare now. I won't let anyone hurt my queen" Rogue whispered in the shell of Lucy's right ear.
"What", Lucy managed to say quietly, but she was sure that he heard her with his dragon's senses.
But all she got was a disapproving look from the salt and pepper head. Rogue unsheathed his Kanata and slashed through the chains that bound Lucy to the vehicle.
"W-w-what are you d-doing?" stammered Lucy.
"Taking my Queen" came her short reply. Lucy was about ask him what does he mean, but was effectively cut off when she felt his arms around her body before she was picked up bridal style.
Panic and fear was running around inside of Lucy like a storm, soon she started flailing in Rogue's grip before she started screaming for help.
"Stop screaming!" The Dragon King hissed angrily, but it only made Lucy screamed even louder than before.
Somehow, in all the screaming, Lucy heard her fellow guild-mates, her family, shouting for her, Natsu especially.
"Rogue, you bastard, let Lucy go!" screeched the pink haired dragon slayer.
Immediately after this, Rogue whispered harshly in Lucy's ear, "if you don't want one of friends to die, I strongly suggest you shut up". The second Rogue spat out the words, Lucy's mouth snapped shut and she fell into a doll-like figure.
Rogue did some sort of signal to one of the guards, before tying the survivors of Fairy Tail, plus Cobra, Present Rogue and Sting, to wooden steaks. He let Lucy to the ground but kept a possessive grip across her waist and held her chin in his large hand.
"Now Lucy, you going to learn what happens to those that define me" Rogue huskily whispered to the fear stricken Lucy, "GUARDS! KILL the blue haired solid script mage!" he yelled.
"WHAT! NO PLEASE ROGUE!" Lucy cried…
But her words went unheard…
Within seconds, Levy's body went limp with a gapping round hole in her chest. Screams tore through the air. "NOOOOOOOOOOOO".
Lucy wept like a banshee at the ultimate loss. 'no, my best friend... my sister...gone... Rogue, I swear on Levy's blood that one day I will murder you'. and with that thought Lucy turned to her captor, the new Dragon King, Future Rogue, with the World's Hatred simmering in her eyes.
