Chapter 2: I Made It
-The darkest part of Magnolia-
There were chains covered in blood everywhere you looked, if it wasn't chains then it was something drenched in blood. The only sounds were the constant screaming and pleas for mercy or for help.A small blonde haired woman was sat on the cold stone floor of a cell, when she heard loud footsteps coming closer, she was muttering over and over again. "Not again, anything but that."
Just when she thought he was outside, she heard two familiar voices. With great difficulty she opened her eyes, looking around her cell when she saw a man with a cloak covering his face however in her mind there was no doubt that this was her captor. She knew the other man but she just couldn't tell who it was because their face was covered in the shadows, until the person emerged walking to her cell saying "The deal is off i want her back." Lucy's eye's widened "Dad"
The cloaked man laughed "No way I paid for the goods, why would I give them back." Lucy couldn't believe what she was hearing. She mustered up all of her courage just to shout "People aren't goods, you can't buy or sell them!" Yet again the man laughed "I know I will have some fun with you." After the wave of his hand Lucy fell unconscious.
-At Fairy Tail-
"And that's how Lucy disappeared." Gajeel put his hand on Natsu's shoulder, and then whispered in his ear "I'm glad you feel better but if you ever tell anyone about what I said I'm going to kill you." This made Natsu smirk "I guess I could come to the guild today. Both the dragon slayers left through the window and started to walk to Fairy Tail, They didn't know what was about to happen if they did things could have changed a lot.
Natsu did indeed go to Fairy Tail that day; when he did he was bombarded by people asking how he was or where he had been all this time. Natsu just said hello then walked over to the bar, jumping on top of it to shout to the whole guild "I think it's time I told everyone what happened to Lucy." Upon hearing her name Erza, Gray, Levy and Mirajane ran up to the bar. Happy perched his head on Natsu's shoulder, letting him start the story. "It all started on that last mission."
-Flashback-
Lucy and Natsu had just finished a job, and they were in there hotel room for the night. Natsu was walking down the corridor with a necklace for Lucy when he heard a loud ear piercing scream. His instincts immediately told him to protect Lucy; he ran at full speed to their room, when he got there Natsu saw a hooded figure dragging Lucy into the shadows with her screaming for help, screaming for him. When Natsu tried to run after them, they had disappeared out of sight, out of smell. Natsu spent days looking for her, without any sleep until her thought what if she went home. Like everyone else he was disappointed and had to face the hard truth of reality.
-End Flashback-
By the end of the story most people in the guild were in tears. Suddenly Natsu knelt down on the bar, punching it with his fist with tears pouring out his eyes "I'm sorry everyone I couldn't protect her. She was my mate forever and I let her down. I don't blame you if you never forgive me or if you want me to leave the guild. I'm tired of this, tired of living."
As soon as he had said that he picked a knife up from the bar and tried to stab himself, fortunately nobody was faster with a blade than Erza; she grabbed the knife out of his hands and threw it across the floor. "YOU IDIOT WE DON'T BLAME YOU FOR WHAT HAPPENED TO LUCY, AND WE SURE AS HELL DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD DO SOMETHING SO STUPID LIKE TAKE YOUR OWN LIFE! DO YOU THINK LUCY WOULD WANT THAT?"
Natsu's eyes were covered by his hair, Erza suddenly slapped him across the face, and it wasn't like the other times when Erza had hit him. This time it was a hit out of fear, fear that he would die. She then hugged him. "You taught me you don't die for you friends, you live for them. So be brave and live, for Lucy."
Natsu was interrupted by the guild doors swinging open, and a blonde girl covered in wounds staggering inside. What caught everyone's attention was the pink Fairy Tail symbol on her hand.
