Lucy's Pov

"Lucy come here" I heard my father say. My arms burned from yesterday's beating. "Yes father" I said weakly. I walked into the metal room, the metallic smell of bloody burned my nose. I saw as my father sat there in his leather chair covered in blood. "come on Lucy" My father said. I flinched at his voice. He got up from his chair and walked to me. I stood my ground, he was right in front of my face in the inside I was crying and ready for the pain. I felt him pick my small frail bloody body and hook me up to a wall. He aimed a black magic orb at me and fired. I felt one of my ribs break. I coughed up blood. He than sent several magic orbs at me. "Lucy! Wake up!".

I shot right out of bed, Natsu was right next to me. I was crying, sweating, and shaking. I curled up into a ball and started crying. "Lucy! Lucy are you ok!" Natsu said shaking me. I yelped and that must have been when Natsu lost it because he sounded really worried. "Yea yea, i'm ok" I said wiping the tears out of my brown eyes. Natsu put a hand on my cheek "I-I got so worried when I saw you" Natsu said his voice calming down slightly. "I just had a bad dream" I said trying not to worry my best friend. "Never do that again" Natsu said hugging me. "Ok but I can't control my dreams" I said laughing "I need to take a shower mind going". Before hearing Natsu's answer I walked into the bathroom with a towel and turned on the water.

I didn't want to leave so I just stayed. I felt like I was waiting for hours so I opened the door a little. I saw Lucy in the tub and all over her body I saw...scars. there were tons of scars on her going from her face to her feet. "Father" I heard her hiss. I looked away blushing when I saw her get out. I looked back to see her pick up her keys. "Open gate of the maiden, Virgo" She said. The key started glowing gold and then there was a poof of smoke and Virgo was there. "Princess the cream isn't ready yet, I only have enough to cover your face and arms" Virgo said emotionless. "Ok just give me the rest I need to pay my rent" Lucy said. Virgo handed her a small bottle. Virgo disappeared and Lucy rubbed some cream on her face and arms. Lucy walked to the door and I guessed that was when I should leave so I ran out the window. I wondered where those scars came from. I arrived and the guild and sat down with Erza and Gray. "Are you ok Natsu you look pale" Mira said handing me a cup of flames. "Yea I'm fine" I said. I saw Lucy walk in, she was wearing a white and gold blouse with skinny jeans and boots. I looked away as she walked to Levy. "What's with your legs being covered Lu-chan"Levy said "You usually have them out for everyone to see". Lucy laughed "I felt in the mood to wear jeans today" Lucy said rubbing the back of her head. "That's a lie" I said louder than I wanted. I walked over to Lucy with one of Erza's blades. Lucy backed up with fear in her eyes. I felt a cold metal hand on my shoulder. "What do you think you are doing" Erza said glaring at me. "Lucy is hiding something" I said looking at Lucy. I punched Erza in face sending her flying. I ran to Lucy and cut her blouse to shreds and there they were, the gruesome scars. Everyone gaped in shock. "Natsu how did you know about this" Erza said who was behind Natsu. "Lucy always tells me to go home before she takes a bath and today I didn't leave and when she was taking a long time I checked on her and saw the scars. She has scars all over her face and arms but they are covered with some cream the Virgo is making" I said.

Juvia looked at Lucy and started crying. "Juvia what's wrong" Gray said. "Those marks are about 10 years old some older than that" Juvia said. Lucy's eyes widened. Lucy walked to the infirmary with Wendy and Everyone else. Lucy sat down on a bed. Wendy didn't get a good look until now. "Those marks are whip, knifes, and chain scars. There are also places where Lucy has had broken bones" Wendy said terrified. Lucy looked away from the group of people now gathered in the room. "Lucy what happened when you were a kid" Erza said crying. Lucy stayed silent. "lucy" Erza said. Lucy stayed silent. "Say something Luce" I said loudly. I saw her flinch at the sound of my voice. I saw some kind of black smoke surround her. The black smoke covered my vision than I heard a scream. 'Lucy' I thought. "Lucy" I shouted as loud as I could. I heard another high pitched scream. I put my hands in front of me and searched at the last place I saw Lucy. Than I blacked out.

I felt darkness and cold hard restraints on my wrists and ankles. I slowly opened my eyes, the sunlight stung my eyes. I finally adjusted the light to my eyes, and what I saw horrified me. There was my father in his same chair his fist holding up his chin. I would never forget the metal room that I spent most of my life in. I struggled against my chains that held me to the wall. "Father let me go" I shouted. "Be a good girl and shut up" said the man smiling. Lucy glared at the man "You shut up, Zeref".
