A lady stepped into the light, just enough that Lucy could see her. A beautiful woman stood in front of her. She had long wavy black hair, that looked like silk, her skin was delicate, and looked almost like porcelain. Her eyes were a dazzling emerald, that sparkled as her long dark eyelashes fluttered over them. Her lips were a bright red, they looked plump and perfect.
She was slender, with all the curves that every girl dreamed of having, long slender legs that were attached to feet standing in high heels. She wore a long flowing red dress that stopped at her left knee and flowed down a little longer past her right leg. A spaghetti strapped top that fell down low, exposing her chest.
"N-no..." Rami mumbled as she clutched her ears trying to block out the voice. "Please...no..."
"Rami?" Lucy looked down at the terrified girl. A wave of defensiveness rushed over her. She stood as best she could blocking Rami from the woman's view. "Who are you?" She demanded standing firmly, as her body ached begging her to lie down.
"Lucy Heartphilia, please stand aside I'll have my turn with you once this girl is finished." The lady stepped forward.
"Shakira." Lucy said realizing who it was. "I won't let you."
"You won't let me?" She said with humor in her voice. "I don't think you have a choice." She chuckled lightly.
"Then take me." Lucy didn't know what had come over her. Rami though was on the verge of death, one more time, and Lucy is sure that she'd die. "I'll go for her instead."
"Lucy...don't!" Rami pleaded softly. "I'll go..."
"Ah...Trying to speed things along I see." She crossed her arms, and tilted her head with a smile. "I had always heard Fairy Tail was an eager bunch." Her emerald eyes turned black, pupils and even the whites. "Very well." Her voice had changed to a strange sound that almost sounded like a high pitched whistle. "Let's begin, Lucy Heartphilia."
Shakira raised her hand, and waved Lucy over. Lucy found her body moving forward on its own. The woman's hand had grown, the fingers were long, and dark sharp claws extended from where she should have fingernails. She wrapped her hand around Lucy's throat , a grip tight enough she couldn't run, but it didn't choke her.
Her lips had gone gray, along with the rest of her face. She opened her mouth, exposing sharp jagged teeth. Lucy could feel her energy draining. Rami had been right her eyes were terrifying. A black abyss that she felt like she was being sucked into. She forced herself to hold her eyes open, as she could see Fairy Tail, her mother, her father flash by.
The woman soon released her grasp on Lucy, and Lucy collapsed to the floor finding she didn't have the strength to move. "Natsu...please..." She begged as she slowly lost consciousness.
Natsu
Happy, and Natsu landed on the outskirts of Reshina. "Ok Happy let's start searching." Natsu said as him and Happy started walking. Natsu sniffed the air. Lucy's sent was barely there, she's got to be nearby Natsu is sure of it. He sniffed a second time to double check. ( Tehe I hope you still like it I know it isn't very good, and if you have advice or any ideas that ou think would be great for the story feel free to write a review about them too me, I wasn't sure on if I should drag out the Natsu finding Lucy thing or not, if you think I should write down what you want, and depending on how many people want something I'll do it [most likely] Thanks for reading next chapter coming soon! ^.^ sorry this was really long!)
He gagged as a foul scent mixed in with the town's smell. "Natsu...?" Happy questioned as he watched his friend look sick.
"There's something that reeks in this town. I don't like it." They walked along, looking around for a sign of Lucy, or of the men who had attacked her.
"Natsu... do you think Lucy's alright, what if her injuries ar-" Natsu patted Happy on the head in a comforting manner.
"She's our Lucy, she ain't gonna go down that easily." Natsu said reassuring Happy, and himself as well. "I bet she'll flash us that big 'ol smile of hers, when we find her!"
"Mhm." Happy nodded. "Let's not keep her waiting!" They ran off at full speed down the streets of the town.
Lucy
"Lu.." A voice dimly called. "Lu...cy.." Lucy moaned slightly as she began to wake up. "Lucy!" A teary voice called.
"What.." Lucy said softly as she awoke.
Rami sat in front of her on her knees. Her eyes were slightly red, and she had tears pouring down her face.
"Rami..?" Lucy tried to sit up, but found it extremely difficult. "Wheres... Shakira..?" She said looking around with only her eyes.
"She..she left.." Rami said as she grabbed carefully onto Lucy's arms, and helped her into a sitting position.
"S-sorry I didn't mean to pass o-out." She winced as her whole body ached. Maybe she shouldn't of pushed herself so hard, but if she hadn't Rami would be... She must have hit the ground extremely hard as she felt new pains that she hadn't felt before when she had woken up earlier.
"Why.." Rami lunged forward, and hugged Lucy. "Why... would you do that for me?!"
"Because... I- I promised I'd get you out of here, I never go back on a promise. I WILL get you out of here so you don't need to be afraid." Lucy returned the hug gently.
She doubted herself however, seeing as she didn't have her keys, and she was injured so badly she could barely even move. "Get some rest you look exhausted." Lucy told the girl kindly.
"What about you?" Rami asked looking up at Lucy.
"I'll go to bed too, I've been sleeping a lot lately though so I'm not very tired." Lucy smiled down at the girl."Where do you usually sleep?"
"Over here," She said pointing at the corner Lucy had been leaning in earlier.
"Why don't you sleep over there its darker?" Lucy said pointing to the far corner near the door Shakira had come in from earlier.
"I-its bad over there..." She trembled slightly. "That's where all the dust, and bones go..." Lucy looked over towards the corner trying to see.
"Oh, then we won't go over there." Lucy stated simply. She lost her train of thought as her stomach grumbled loudly. "D-do they ever bring us food, or anything to drink?"
Rami nodded. "Every couple of days, They'll be bringing some tomorrow probably."
"Okay, now go to sleep." Lucy gently stroked Rami's hair as she laid her head down on her legs, using them as a pillow. Rami soon was off in a deep sleep, undisturbed as Lucy stood slowly.
Lucy walked over to the door, and paused to look over in the corner, she nauseous as she stared horrified at the picture before her. Crumpled up pieces of bones lay in the corner, dust, piled up in huge heaps, random pieces of torn clothing was in scraps everywhere.
Lucy closed her eyes as she turned her head away. "How long has this been going on, and nobody has even noticed!" She said through gritted teeth as she clenched her fists.
She stepped away from the pile, and to the door, grabbing the knob, a bolt of electricity surged through her the second she touched it. She screamed out, as she quickly released the knob. She fell to her knees, as she hunched over panting. She smacked her fist into the ground, as she was filled with frustration.
Lucy pulled herself up, and walked over to Rami, the girl had not stirred during that quick incident. Lucy then went to the whole in the wall, and looked out. Her eyes watered slightly at the bright sun shining in, by the looks of it, it was the afternoon, the time she didn't know.
There were a few people walking by, several yards away but all the buildings looked old, and shabby, worn down. Some of them had closed signs, while others were boarded shut. The building she was in but be bared up, or closed as people didn't even bother to give it a glance. She could see a street, even farther away that was fairly crowded, but it would be impossible.
Her heart dropped as she thought about how there wouldn't be many people, she could try to call out, however she was extremely far away and if she failed and people don't hear her, Shakira would come and stop her. That she already knew wouldn't be good at all.
She looked back at Rami, the girl had a faint smile on her face, as she laid on the cold floor. She must be having a nice dream. Lucy thought about how she would want to do it, for Rami, the girl wouldn't be punished if Lucy did something like that. So there wouldn't be any consequences, for her.
"I'll do it once I get more strength... and my body has recovered slightly." Lucy mummbled to herself. She was about to go lie down, but something drew her to the hole, telling her to look through it.
Lucy continued to stare curiously, trying to pull herself away, but she couldn't. She was filled with hope, and excitement, her heart leapt at what she saw. Tears started to fall as a wave of relief washed over her. Because she saw him, she saw him!
She breathed in all the air she possibly could filling up her lungs to scream out, to call out to him, because she knew she was saved, there wasn't any need to worry because she was saved. He was there, Natsu was there running by with Happy down the streets.
Her lungs were filled, and she let it all go screaming it even louder than when she called his name in the forest. "NNNNNNAAAAATTTSSSSSUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUU!"
