LOOK WHOS COMING! THATS RIGHT, CHAPTER SEVEN!

-Chapter 7-

After the dude revealed himself, around about twenty other men surrounded them and were closing in. I have to get Lucy outta here! Natsu thought hurriedly, trying to find a way to get her to safety.

He ran straight and barrelled through the thin wall of men and straight back to the guild hall. When it was in sight, he tripped up but caught himself before Lucy fell off his shoulders. He took her into his arms and tried running again to the guild, but was stopped by a strange force. "Why can't I move?! Aarrgh!" Natsu grunted and tried moving, but to no avail. Lucy was still asleep in his arms and Happy had flown off a while ago saying something about getting Carla a fish.

The short man waltzed up to him and got one of his goons to take Lucy from him. They had trouble with the 'Taking Lucy' part though, because he had such a tight hold on her and he was doing anything his frozen state could do, which wasn't much. "Don't you touch her!" He screamed, and a very colourful line of obcesecties escaped the Dragon Slayer's mouth. Lucy stirred and opened her eyes when she was pulled from his strong grip, bit was put back to sleep by some sleep spell the short man put on her, receiving many more death threats from Natsu.

Lucy was then promptly chucked over the shoulder of one of the men and taken away. Natsu was knocked out before they went off and left on the ground in a heap. "Lucy..." he mumbled.

When Lucy awoke, she was in a dark, prison like cell. The ground was damp and stone, as was the walls. There was a metal barred door trapping her from freedom. She sat up, but instantly slumped against the back wall. Her head was pounding and she hurt all over. Where am I? Where's Natsu? She thought in a daze. Her vision was a bit hazy, but when her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she saw there was blood on the ground.

There were footsteps outside her cell and they were coming closer. They stopped right outside and the dark figure turned and looked at her. She kept still in fear of what they were going to do to her.

One of the minions that were following him, unlocked the door and the leader strode in. He walked over to her and stood in front of her, towering over her.

"Well, well, well. What do we have here?" His menacing voice scared her further. She gulped, but said nothing. "Answer me, stupid girl!" He yelled, slapping her across the face. Her head hit the back wall, effectively knocking her out. "Bring her to The Examination Room," their leader ordered and left the room soon after.

When Natsu woke up, he was in the guild's infirmary. He slowly looked around at his surroundings. He tried to ignore the pain that was in his head and sat up. When he sat up, Mira walked in with a tray of food, "You're awake!" She cried out on surprise. "Where's Lucy?!" He got straight to the point.

"When we found you, she wasn't with you," Mira explained, trying to calm him down. "I'll kill that bastard!" Natsu started to shout in rage. "Who?" Mira asked. "It was the bastard that kept looking at Lucy!" The angry Dragon Slayer replied.

"That man we spoke to in our recent mission? Yeah, he seemed to look at Lucy a lot," Gray agreed, walking in with Erza in tow.

"I agree with Gray. We should visit him again and question him," Erza stated.

"He already took Lucy!" Natsu shouted frantically. He wanted to get out of there ASAP and try to find Lucy.

"Try not to do anything stupid," The bar maid replied, packing away her medical supplies. Natsu immediately threw off the blanket and sprinted out of there with Erza and Gray right behind him.

When Lucy woke up next, she was strapped down to one of those creepy hospital beds in those cliche horror movies. She tried to wiggle her small hands out, but to no avail.

"That's useless, little girl," The dark voice from before said from the shadows. She whimpered in fear and stopped instantly. She tried to lift her head up, straining her neck, but gave up.

She took a look around the dimly lit room. To her right there was a metal table with different scary looking tools thrown half-hazardly on top of it. "W-What are you gonna do t-to me?" Lucy asked in a terrified voice.

"Not much, just gonna have some fun," The figure then walked out of the shadows and turned to be a bit on the short side, but still scary. He walked over to the metal door on the opposite wall and pulled it open, walked through it and slammed it shut. Natsu, save me... was her last thought before she blacked out from exhaustion.

Natsu bursts out of the guild hall's doors and immediately started to sniff the air and track down Lucy's scent. He turned in a full 360 degrees and finally settled for North. "Where the hell is Flame Brains going?!" Gray asked, annoyed how he is always one step behind the Dragon Slayer. "He is searching for his Lucy," Erza said with a soft smile on her face.

"C'mon! She's this way!" Natsu yelled over his shoulder. Erza and Gray picked up their pace to run just behind him. "Her scent is faint, but I can smell it clearly enough to follow it! This way!" He yelled, then took a sharp right, cutting through an alleyway. That bastard is gonna pay! Natsu thought angrily, putting a mean scowl on his face, no-one takes my Lucy from me...
