The scene takes place at the beginning of the Tartaros arc, around chapter 360.! If you're not there yet, you might be a bit confused about what is happening! The story won't follow the manga afterwards.

Lucy was running full speed through the streets of the town, trying to catch up to Michello, the former council mage they were supposed to protect. Why did he run out like that? The old man was starting to get on her nerves. She took a turn and caught sight of both the man she was looking for and his attacker: Jackal. Without losing time, she reached out and found Taurus' Key. She couldn't wait for Natsu or Wendy. She called out as loud and clearly as she could:

'Open…'
'Whoa there,' Jackal interrupted her immediately, the palm of his hand facing her head, 'I'd think twice before doing that…'.

She froze and looked down and around her, feeling something was wrong. Surely, he wouldn't stop her without a reason.

'A landmine curse…,' he clarified, seeing her confusion, 'the moment you move… Kaboom.'

The demon's eyes were shining with both excitation and anticipation, reveling in seeing her there He had heard her rushing in and she had fallen face first in his trap, he was in control and it gave him such a feeling of power. He wished he could tease her more but citizens came around quickly, curious about what the situation was and not oblivious the position they were in. The Celestial Mage took a hold on herself and ordered them to run away, impressing him with her rationality and self-control.

He crossed his eyebrows and his smile flatered, she was scared indeed, but not as terrified as he had wanted. Did she not care for her own life? Did she not realize the situation she was in? He wanted to break this rebellious spirit.

He raised his hand toward the former member of the Magic Council and put him in a bomb, he did the same with a woman. He turned to the blond mage and explained blatantly, a willful smile on his lips:

'They're both ticking bombs.'

He turned his evil eyes to her, eager to see the fear in her eyes. And there it was. He could see the tumult inside her. She felt powerless and trapped, he was in control again. She had such a beautiful expression when she was suffering and, attracted to it, Jackal walked closer to her. Her eyes were closed, tears almost falling down her round cheeks and lips almost bleeding for she was biting on them. Her head was so small and full of bruises that she had gotten from HIS explosions. He felt a grumble coming from his belly and knew it was the excitation of the situation that had caused it. Since when had he been so excited? Sure, he had blown the whole magic council but he had not had the chance to see them. It had all happened way to fast in his opinion. Her expression was such a marvel to look at. He reached out his hand to her but the fire Dragon jumped out of nowhere and punched him away from his source of delight.

It did not hurt that much, but he was pissed to see the relief on the Celestial Mage's face. Her hero was there and she was not worried anymore, she seemed to have no doubt in his victory. Jackal felt his magic waver and try to put it back in order before the dragon slayer charged him again. He seemed unaffected by the explosions he had received before, was he even human?

Although he was a dragon slayer, Jackal was pretty sure that he owned at least some of the weaknesses of a human. He looked at the little blonde again and thought that it was definitely worth trying it out. While Natsu was busy scolding the old man they had came to protect, ignoring stupidly his adversary, the blond demon placed his nakama, the blonde mage, in a bubble bomb.

'Eeee! Natsu!' she whined, pissing the demon off with her shriek. 'Help!'

The dragon turned with furry in his eyes at her pleading call but Jackal quietly nodded in disapproval. He should better not try anything.

'Tut tut, you calm the fuck down, will you? Or I blow her pretty head off.' He went on when he saw the pink head face him, 'you better not touch the bubble or try anything else. It won't work.'

He went to the beautiful blond and took her hand out of the bubble, only he could do that since it was his curse after all. His instinct was screaming him to continue the fight but he knew he was in a bad situation and that he would fail if he fought the dragon slayer. He did not like desperate fights. If the dragon slayer could resist his magic, he better let one of the other demon take care of him.

'Now, I will leave with her, and you better not move an inch or you know what'll happen.' He threatened the other.

With that said, he jumped to the roof, pulling the blond behind him. If he touched her, the bomb would not detonate and the pink mage could knock him out in an instant but he did not seem smart enough to figure it.
Jackal jumped away swiftly to not leave his opponent any time to figure it out and when he was far enough from the city he stopped and let the bomb disappear. She fell on her knee, her legs unable to support her own weight anymore. He crouched down in front of her and grabbed her head in his hand; her chin resting in the palm of his hand, her cheeks compressed between his finger. That was cute, and it pushed him to be even meaner to her:

'You're so ugly, he should have let you blow off.'
'Shut up and let me go.' She ordered, staring at him with her two brown eyes.
'Such a combative spirit. I will take my time crushing it.' He laughed as he bent forward and put more strength in his finger to force her to open her mouth and steal a kiss from her.

She tried to resist but he held on his grip and pushed his tongue in her mouth, twisting it against and around hers, explored every corner of her mouth. She was trying to get away from him but he wanted to taste her more, she was so yummy…

SLAM!

He looked at her with disarray. Had she just slapped him? Why would she break such a moment? Was she not scared anyway?
He saw tears of frustration dropping down her cheeks and he felt so annoyed by it that he hit her on her head and she collapsed on the floor, losing consciousness. He extended his arm to catch her head before it hit the floor. It was silly to try to protect her from hurting her head when he had just knocked her out, he knew it but he had done it without realizing it.

He smiled fondly at her crossed eyebrows and brushed it off. He had kind of liked her fighting back. Yes, she was interesting, and she was cute.

He looked up at the sky in wonder: 'Now, what am I gonna do of you?'

Hey~ Thank you for reading!
I hope you enjoyed the prologue and got you curious about what he will indeed do of her! I know it's a bit short, next chapter will be longer!
Just to warn you, I rated the fiction M for the language and stuff like that but I'm not sure about putting any smut in it so far! I will focus more on the story than intercourse :)
Also, I need to reassure some of you: Lucy will never do something she really does not want to do. She won't be forced to do anything.
Next chapter, next week! xx
