It's been two hours since the dragons got here. I wouldn't say we did well in the first two hours of fighting but no one died yet so maybe that's good news...
Who am I kidding? It was horrible! We already decided to retreat for a bit but the dragons don't let up. What do we do? The dragons are still coming in and we're still low on magic power from the Grand Magic Games, and that stupid eclipse "cannon" draining our magic didn't help either. The stupid thing doesn't even work! It was suppose to get rid of the dragons by shooting some sort of beam at them. 'The power even rivals ethrieon' they said. Bullshit!
To think they put me and Yukino in jail as well as stole our keys for that stupid project! Grrr!
Ah! Natsu, he got directly drained by that cannon, then Natsu must still be recovering.
I quickly turn around looking for a tuff of pink hair and see a flame emerge from behind a crumbled down building just a bit farther than where I am.
The flame grew closer and closer to the other participants and I, and I swear I was going to die. The blast of fire hit the ground and exploded but the area around everyone remained the same.
"Everyone, run to the forest!" Natsu?!
In a panic everyone around me turns towards the forest and starts running, but I continued looking for where Natsu's voice came from.
"Natsu?! Natsu!" I can't find him. W-what do I do? "Natsu!"
"Lucy! What are you still doing here. Come on we need to go, this might be our only cover." I whip my head around to face Gray. Oh, that's right, we were going to retreat and this would be the best opportunity.
"Lucy, let's go!... He'll be fine, Lucy, you know how he is."
"... He doesn't have a lot of magic left."
"Well, who do you think is holding this fire away from burning us. If you don't hurry we won't make it!" I get what you mean but I can't help but worry, although despite my protest I know he's right so I turn around and followed Gray to the forest.

When we arrived to where the others were I can say I'm more than disappointed that Natsu wasn't there, but what did I expect? He was probably still holding up the barrier.
We stand around waiting for everyone to get here in complete silence. After a while longer Makarov started to headcount everyone and we were only missing Natsu.
"Come one everyone. Let's get going." Wait what?!
"What about Natsu?!"
"Lucy, keep your voice down" Right. Voice down. "And to answer your question, Natsu will be meeting us later."
"What?! Why?! We can't just leave him there!"
"Lucy. I know you're worried but Natsu will be fine."
"B-but what if-." I tried to say but I feel dizzy and sleepy all of a sudden. Soon I can feel my eye lids closing and the world around me goes black.
••••••X••••••
My eyes flutter open, I take a look around and it seems that I'm in a tent... Tent? I try to get up, using my arms to push myself off the "bed" I was lying on. My bare feet touch the ground, I wobble a bit before I can stand up straight. I hear the chatter outside of the tent, so I push back the curtain that separates inside from outside then I step out.
The bright light blinds me for a second and I have to cover my eyes to stop the burning sensation.
"Lucy, you're awake!" I uncover my eyes and see my friends and others sitting around a fire pit. Each one of them smile brightly at me.
"Where... Are we?" I questioned. I watched as they turned to each other and nodded then turned back to look at me.
"Lucy, we're somewhere in the forest we retreated to." Oh right! I remember now. "... And Natsu still isn't back..." Oh... Wait!
"WHAT?! How long has it been?" I have to know what happened to Natsu!
"It's been 2 days. I'm actually surprised my magic managed to knock you out for so long." Replied Mira. 2... 2 days... Natsu... Should've been here by now. No... But
I suddenly feel lightheaded again and I can feel myself wobbling and tilting over. The last thing I hear was a voice screaming my name.
"LUCYYYYYYYYY!"
