Lucy's POV

My fists kept pounding against the door of the closet, but it was useless they'd all already gone. I sat down cursing Nicholas by using every bad word in every language I knew. 'Whoa' a strange voice came from one of the shelves above my head. Its voice was familiar to me, but my mind couldn't quite place it. So I stood up wobbling slightly but I was in such a confide space that I pretty much had permanent support. My eyed searched for the thing that made that all too familiar sound as my brain started to place it, but damn Nicky had left the lights off and my all too human eyes could barely see a thing.

"Whoa" the voice went again just as my hands found something small and fury. "Oh god" I groaned as now I knew all too well what was in the closet with me. It was fatter than I remembered and if possibly even more bird like.

It was Solanges ferbie. Small, ugly and having the ability to everyone up, it could even wind me and Nicholas up more than each other. Sol got it for her seventh birthday, it was fun for awhile but then like any other seven year old would Sol soon got bored which would have been perfectly reasonable if they would actually shut the hell up. We tried tacking out the batteries. Didn't work. I even hit it over the head with a hammer. Didn't work. So eventually all we could do was lock it in the closet. And now hear I was locked in a closet with the damn thing. Seriously I'm contemplating adding UN to the beginning of my name. It would make a lot more sense than it would to just to be called lucky when I'm obviously anything but.

Hours past and I swear I was on the brink of losing my mind. If it weren't for the fact I had no hammer or anything that resembled a bat there was no way I was going to be able to smash the infuriating little nightmare. And I'm not even strictly talking about the ferbie here. If I even have one ounce of my sanity left by the time out let of here, he's going to be so very sorry.

"Oh my god" I muttered to myself. I'd only just remembered I had my mobile in my back pocket. I checked the time cursing Nicholas, Logan (he ran off with Isabeau so I thought hey he's not here I can say what I like) and I was especially angry with myself. It was almost dawn. Where the HELL were they?

So instead of waiting in the closet like the good little human me undoubtedly was I got my mobile and called the first person on my contacts who wasn't a Drake. Ok so that was the plan but the first person turned out to be Jullien so I ended up calling Kieran.

"Kieran" I screamed into the telephone to add effect to my distress after being locked in a closet. I heard him curse.

"What the hell Lucy. What's going on?" he asked groggily. I guessing I woke him up. I took a deep breath I was so angry I was starting to shake.

"Nicholas locked me in the closet so I wouldn't go to the fight and it would be appreciated if you would come and let me out" I said quickly.

It took a lot of effort to get Kieran out of his sleep stupor of a state. And it seemed to take even longer for him to get here. I could hear him running up the stairs. I stood up tapping my foot as he fumbled with the latch. As the door I opened I had to take a step back the light that poured into the previously pitch black room hurt my eyes. I heaved a deep sigh of relief " Thank you Kieran" I said stepping out the closet.

"You're welcome" he said.

I turned around and locked the closet.

"Lucy what are you doing?" Kieran asked watching me suspiciously.

"Making sure Nicky doesn't know I've escaped" I say smiling maybe Solange was right I am kind of evil "It's payback time".

Nicholas POV

I was sitting in the caves waiting for the others to wake up it was almost sunset and I hadn't got one wink of sleep. Lucy will have been in the closet for almost 24 hours and I was wracked with guilt. If I hadn't been scared the others would need me in case of another ambush I would have been back at the house by now, with 2 black eyes and broken nose.

"Nick?" Solange was stirring. She got up and walked over to where I was sitting and sat down next to me. "She is gonna be so mad at you" Solange stated as if nobody didn't already know.
