DISCLAIMER: HIRO MASHIMA KNOWS WHAT HE OWNS!

Chapter 1: Trapped in my thoughts:

Lucy's POV

"Good night!" I say to no one in particular. I close the light and feel the comfort of my blanket and pillow, after feeling the Autumn breeze. I close my eyes and get trapped in my own thoughts of today. Today, Natsu and I had an argument. It wasn't the petty ones with me scolding him, but a big one.

Flashback...

I walked into the Guild when Natsu ran up to me and told me to do the most stupidet thing in the world. "Summon the Celestial King!" He commanded. "Natsu, you know I can't do that," I say, trying to calm him down. "She really is weak," I saw Max say. He usually makes comments like that so I didn't mind until Natsu tackled me to the ground completely. The whole guild caught sight of us. "Lucy, you hear that!? I was trying to prove Max that you aren't weak at all, but look what you've done!" Natsu explained with a fierce look in his eye, "and you are proving to yourself as weak in the guild? Proving Max right!?" I honestly didn't know what happened, so he was proving me...strong? Overestimating me? "N-no, I-I really couldn't summon him, l-like I did with L-Loke," I stammered as I trembled on the floor. "Are you underestimating yourself, Lucy?" Natsu asked, his fierce eyes becoming soft. "No, I-I really don't...know what you're talking about..." I trembled more as I say each word, the way he asked me to summon the Celestial King was ridiculous, but if he was THIS serious about it, then there is nothing I can do but take his anger. "I-I'm sorry, I'm just not as strong as y-you think I am," I say as I start to tear up. I saw Mira-San shoot a glare at Max, and Gray giving the 'what an idiot' aura.

Natsu went to the request board are I started to walk over to the counter, where Mira-San is. "Are you ok, Lucy?" Mira-San asked. "Yeah, could you give me a smoothie," I ask, trying to stop this trembling. "Sure," She answered, as she turned around to make it. I look at Natsu, he was still at the request board. As soon as I got my smoothie, I walked up to Natsu, worried about him, but he took a job and walked straight past me. "Mira, I'm going on this job," he says bluntly. "Without Happy and Lucy?" Mira-San asked, as if she couldn't read the situation. "Happy! Wanna go on a job with me!?" He called to Happy, as he was giving fish to Carla. "I can't right now, Carla wants to go fishing with me," Happy answered. "No, I'm going alone," he said to Mira. "Ok..." Mira-San answered, shooting a worried look to me. So he's avoiding me? I guess I'll confront him when he finishes his job. I waited for hours, sitting there staring at the door. People started going home. Soon enough, Mira-San need to go home. "I'm sorry Lucy, do you want to lock the guild doors?" She asked. "No, I'll just go home..." I said, disappointed that Natsu didn't come back. "Ok then," Mira-San said as we both walked out the door. "Bye," I say as I walk the other direction. "Bye," Mira-San replies.

End of Flashback.

I sighed as a tear slid down my cheek. If only I could do it again, summon the King, but it's no use now. More tears slid down. I really am weak aren't I? Natsu tried to prove that statement wrong, when I didn't know about it. I turned my head to my pillow and cried. And I tried to cry myself to sleep. I'm still trapped in my thoughts about Natsu, and I wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. Or else I might stay crying for the whole night, and not get any sleep. Then I feel someone touch my head. I turned around quickly, hoping it was Natsu, so we could talk it out, unfortunately, it wasn't.

"You are regretting something aren't you," he said creepily. I couldn't make out what he looked like due to the shadows. "Who are you!?" I yelled. "My identity is a secret, just answer my question," it answered. I stayed quiet. "Why don't you fight you're regrets, and set yourself free from all these thoughts," he whispered in my ear. Feeling his touch made me shiver. I stayed quiet, trying not to scream or tremble, just stay strong. He pulled me into a hug. I tried to pull myself out of it, but he pulled harder. I tried to locate my keys, but he threw them to the other side of the room. I was just wanting to get out. Then purple dust went around the room, looking like poison. I held my breath, it was hard as he pulled me closer, suffocating me. "Every part of your life from now on, belongs to me, I control your mind, I control your emotions, your words, your action, your body, everything," he chanted in my ear, as his breath tickled my neck, "Brainwash Control!" And I fall asleep in his arms, which felt unsafe for me.

To Be Continued...

Ok, maybe that was a lot creepy, let's hope Natsu and Lucy sort it out...

Kitty~?
