Omfg… I just noticed all the spelling and grammar errors I made in the previous chapters. :/ fml. I guess that's what I get for writing at like one in the morning! Please don't mind the mistakes. ^.^'''' Also please read and review. XD Enjoy. P.s. I couldn't calculate a walking-to-train ratio so I just guessed. P.P.S. The last part of this chapter was hard to write, damn flashbacks. :3

"Natsu! Are you okay?" Happy rushed to his partner.

"Happy, and Gray too? What about Erza and Lucy?"

"Lucy's probably still where that freak of nature took her, and Erza is… I don't know?" Gray retorted.

"You needn't worry, I am here." Erza walked into view. "We better go get L-Lucy"

"ERZA! You're covered in blood! What the hell happened?" Natsu's rage grew.

"Don't mind me, we need to" she coughed. "Find Lucy and return to the guild, there's nothing we can do here."

"Those damned bastards. I'll beat every last one of their asses."

The four of them headed for the roof Lucy was taken to. The fact that this was only the beginning didn't quite hit them yet. The only thing on each of their minds was 'why?' Why was this all suddenly happening now? What is the point of it all?

"Happy, can you fly up there and bring her down here?" Erza asked.

"Aye sir!" As Happy arrived at the roof, the shock was visible in his face. Natsu and the others wondered why he stopped mid-air.

"Oi! Happy! Is she not there?" Natsu shouted

"Natsu, I don't think it would be safe for me to carry her, since I'm not big enough to hold her properly."

"Happy, what do you mean?" Natsu immediately hopped up to the roof, to see what was going on. "Damn it. What did that bastard do to her? Guys we should hurry back to the guild's infirmary."

"Natsu, you know it'll take about two days by walking. We'll have to take a train and then we'll get there in about 45 minutes." Gray warned.

Natsu made a vomit noise, and puffed his cheeks, but nodded yes anyways. He knew had had to do it for his team, since everyone was badly injured.

About an hour later…

Team Natsu stumbled into the guild, turning the heads of the casual mages.

"What happened?" Master's seriousness was almost scary.

Wendy performed emergency aid on everyone, and then Porlyusica continued the healing process. None of their wounds were fatal, and healed quickly. Erza, Natsu, and Lucy were bandaged, while Gray had any lingering poison removed. However, Lucy still remained unconscious.

"Porlyusica-san, I have a question? Sorry to bother you." Wendy stared at the ground in her usual shy manner.

"Regarding Lucy?"

"Y-yes… While I was healing her wounds, there were strange.. Uh…" Wendy was too embarrassed to continue on with that sentence, she just hoped Porlyusica understood.

"Yes, child. I noticed, as well. I did some further examination, and I've confirmed it. Lucy was a victim of rape. However, child, do not share this information with anyone, not even Lucy. Such a monstrosity should never be verbalized as it reminds her of the emotional suffering."

"O-of course! I wouldn't tell a soul! Lucy is my nakama after all!"

Meanwhile

Erza gave the detailed report to Makarov, his expression remained calm but he was enraged. He knew that by no means, would the mission be easy, but he didn't expect it to turn out like this.

"Damn, not only did the enemy trick us with a false request, but they hurt my children!"

"Master, I know how you feel, we all feel the same way, but what shall we do?" Mirajane attempted to reassure everyone.

"By the sound of how things went, they'll be back, and we'll be here to kick their asses. Have everyone prepare for war, and no one is allowed to do solo missions for a while."

"Okay, I'll go make the announcement." Having said that, Mira left the room.

"Gramps, is Lucy alright?" Natsu finally asked.

"She's perfectly fine right now, just sleeping. Porlyusica tells me that she should by up in a few hours. Why do you ask, boy?"

"I want to know what the hell happened in that orb thing that bastard took her into."

"Psh… Master don't listen to this guy, he just wants to stick his tongue in her throat again." Gray teased.

Makarov raised an eyebrow at Natsu, then let out a chuckle.

"GRAYYYYYY! It wasn't like that! She's just a clumsy weirdo! It's not like I wanted it to happen…. Well maybe… Oh, uh, I mean, Gray put your clothes on!" Natsu blushed.

"What? Ah! When did this happen?"

"Since the beginning."

"You pickin' a fight, lizard-boy?"

"I can take you on anytime, you popsicle! "

Natsu and Gray butted heads while Erza separated them. The guild joked around and laughed, causing the usual ruckus as if there wasn't a care in the world. Happy offered Carla another fish, and Juvia fan-girled over Gray. Reedus began to paint Cana's portrait, while Cana's drank another barrel of booze.

As dusk approached, everyone began to wear out. Alzack and his family left for the day along with Wacaba, Macao, and Romeo.

Levy's team had just gotten back from their mission and had been informed of the plan. After hearing what happened, Levy immediately went to the infirmary to visit her best friend. "Lu-Chan…" Although she was told that Lucy would be fine, Levy still worried.

Later that night.

"You're just a burden to Fairy Tail, they all secretly hate you." The voices whispered loudly in Lucy's head. Lucy was surrounded by the darkness of her own mind, haunting her. "You're just disgusting, you're not clean anymore. Just a dirty little girl, I bet you enjoy that man's violation."

Lucy's fear deepened with that last thought. Where were these thoughts coming from? Her anger and pain worsened as well. Why? Why did the world always target her?

"A daughter of someone so rich, shouldn't be so sad. You could have anything you wanted, you had everything you wanted. Don't be so selfish and ask for love. Love is an incredibly selfish requirement of humans."

"How dare you cry at the death of your father, you never appreciated him before, so why do you care so much now? Grow up."

"Lucy Heartfilia, you always play a role, don't you? Always acting so denfenceless just to get some guy's attention. Natsu only see Lisanna as a girl, you are just a friend."

"You think you're so pretty? I've seen dogs better looking than you."

All these painful inner thoughts Lucy buried so deep, were beginning to resurface. Along with with thoughts, came her memories. Her father's abandonment, and later the death of both her parents. The time when Phantom Lord started a war with Fairy Tail, all because of her. Everything was always her fault.

For what seemed like hours to her, all the negativity and nightmares of her past and insecurities began to consume her.
