Lucy was terrified.

Perhaps that was even an understatement. It wasn't anything like witnessing a glorified massacre terrified. Far from that. It was the tingling sensations that stirs in you stomach when you swear you've seen something lurking outside your window, in the eerie dark of the night. It's the sensation that leaves your heart in your throat, anticipating for what's next to come. Lucy felt it, and she knew those heart-churning feelings better than anyone right now.

Laying and watching, Lucy laid motionless. The numbing sensation of tiny dart puncturing her body was almost over whelming and sticky sanguine liquid dyed her knotted golden locks. And then there was that constant pounding twinge she felt at the side of her head, pulsing against her temples. The ache in her head scrambled and toyed with her vision. She fought constantly between the perpetual switch between reality and obscure visions replaying over and over in her head. Lucy scrunched her eye together, hoping the darkness will over come the stinging. She clenched her fists; her palms were damp from sweat tangle with traces of dirt.

Ughh, w-what's going on?

Sharp edges of debris dug into her back. She could feel every grain of sand embedded in her skin. She inhaled slowly; the air was musty with the putrid scent of trash and hints of sweat. There was the thick tang of metallic in her mouth. She swallowed hard. The streaks of tears on her cheeks enhanced the evening chill of the wind. Lucy shivered as a breeze of wind picked up ripping the puddle of crimson blood beside her tear-flooded eyes. Reflections of silhouettes appeared in the mirror-like puddle.

Lucy saw them, a lofty man in a trench coat and another who as only half his height, slouching over sheepishly. Their conversation was brief and Lucy only caught bits and pieces.

"This is the Heartfilia girl?" the man boomed.

"Yup! No lie, Celestial mage of Fairy Tail."

Thump-thump-thump. Is he trying to sell me?

"How much"

"Fifty-thousand jewels." the scratchy voice proposed.

The man glanced over at her. With a quick 'tch' he made his move swiftly, almost flawlessly.

Lucy heard a sharp sound; like something cutting through air rapidly. The noise made her ears ring even more. The stench of the ally way was now mingled with the bitter-smoky smell of gunpowder. The man let the wind carry away the trail of smoke before tucking the weapon back into his coat. Snapping his fingers, he set the body ablaze.

He strolled toward Lucy and dragged her across the pavement. As he shuffled out of the confined ally, the glare of the street lights was almost blinding. As she regained her wavering vision, Lucy took a last glance at the pitiful scorched body.

Why did he kill that man? Where is this guy taking me?

The man yanked her off the ground, her feet dangling below. With a painful tug, the man dumped her body into the back of a rusty –encrusted carriage.

Who is this guy? Ugh, this place reeks of blood. What the-

Lucy saw the figure pulling a glass tube out of a metallic case and flicking it.

He clambered into the carriage and grabbed Lucy by the neck making her wheeze for oxygen and punching the syringe into her neck with a sadistic smirk dancing about his lips. Lucy's throat was as dry as sandpaper as she let out a shrill gasp as she stared at the blue-green liquid drain from the needle.

Auggg...

The man yanked the metal out and scuttled off. Lucy felt her heat slacken and a quiet thump-thump-thump now echoed in her ears. She could hardly feel any of her limbs anymore. Taking quick, quivering gasps for oxygen, Lucy's vision clouded over as she fell into an onyx, mind-bending haze.

Natsu, you'll save me, right?
