As the masters watch the fight break out, they all knew that Gildarts would win. After a good fifteen minutes, Natsu had ran out of magic and fell to the floor unconscious. They watched as Gildarts took out some magic resistant rope and tied him up. When Gildarts entered the house he was horrified by what he seen. He and the masters looked at Lucy who was chained up to the bed, bruises and cuts everywhere, both her feet and hands where bound by rope that was tied to tight and all the blood that surrounded her on the floor. As Gildarts approached her, she started shaking and trying to back away.
"Shhh, it's ok Lucy. He can't hurt you anymore, the rune nights are on their way here to take him away."
"You need to leave before he wakes up, I can't make it through another punishment. Please go." She begged.
"He won't be waking up for a long time, and even when he does I bound his magic so he can't hurt you."
"These wounds are by his hands alone, no magic was involved. Go and bring back my men, I can't live anymore without at least seeing them. I don't have that much strength left in me to go much longer unless I can get out of here."
"Lucy, I'm going to get you out of here just hold on and don't move so I can cut the rope off you. I will break the chains with my magic so you need to be very still, do you understand?"
I nodded and watched as he cut the ropes off leaving blood rushing out of the wounds. I started feeling dizzy and heard him talking to a card while he broke the chain that was around my neck.
"I know that you are watching masters, you need to get the healer out infront of the guild for emergency treatment or she won't survive. She's lost to much blood and just fainted." Gildarts said.
While I was running carrying Lucy and Natsu, I noticed that she was loosing all color to her skin. I rushed to the guild seeing Wendy ready for her with a cot they had laid out for her. I had seen Mira and Elfman holding everyone back as I approached. The three masters where standing behind Wendy when I approached. I laid the girl down gently while trying to keep her from moving in the process. I walked over with Natsu still in my hands waiting for the rune knights to show up.
"You two need to mark her, it will help with the healing." Wendy said while healing Lucy.
The two dragon slayers walked over to her and bent down on both sides of her neck. When they bit her, they felt her relax as they began to pour their magic into her. They watched as she squinted her eyes trying to see them but couldn't come to. They release her neck and watched as color came back to her, while Wendy continued to try and stop the bleeding. Wendy looked over to see the knights coming to get Natsu and asked for help. The knights looked down at Lucy, gasp when they saw her, and began to help heal her. Of course everyone from the Magic council was there watching the horrific scene that was going on before them. Lahar ordered right then in there for Natsu to be locked up till the end of his days, which didn't come as a surprise to anyone who knew what he did to her. While Wendy continued to heal her, everyone noticed her hand lifting up off the ground reaching to her two mates. They both took her hand waiting for her to respond in some way to let them know that she would be fine. Natsu had finally gained conscious again just in time to see them take her hand, this infuriated him. He used almost everything he had to break free of the rune knight that were guarding him. When Sting and Rogue heard the commotion behind them and saw that it was Natsu breaking free, they took up their defensive positions in front of Lucy.
