Chapter 10

Levy looked at her empty room. That's how the whole place felt...empty. Somehow they had managed to get Gajeel out for a 'mission' as a prisoner. What a laugh? They were practically prisoners and now they were going to be forced to do missions. Well Gajeel was, she was just leverage on him now.

Maybe she could leave here, leave him a note that he was escaping and that he better come back to her or else, well close enough to the note she would have left about her anger if he didn't make it. Or even thought about it.

Levy glanced at her hands there was a lot to process from the last several hours. May's tears as she cried like a child in her lap the night before over, like well a child, because they were just children starting to discover the world's evils and the world's lights maybe even something in-between.

She sighed standing up and walking over towards the bookshelf, scanning it, and sitting back down in her corner again. The room she was in now was completely dark with the curtains drawn it looked completely different from the morning where it was almost...happy? Mellow? Where as this it was completely dreary. She was tempted to laugh at the irony of the emotions spinning around her so quickly as she slowly shut her eyes entrancing her in various dreams.

*Dream*

It was the night of her kidnapping she was standing there at her desk rearranging books when Jet and Droy called to her from a different room near the front door for her to hurry up. "Yeah, yeah I'm coming" she replied cheerily dropping one book as a yellow paper fell out from beneath it. 'Don't go to the guild today!' was scribbled on it, apparently extremely quickly because of the slop-job on it.

"Levy what's that?" Jet's voice echoed, "Oh nothing..." she smiled quickly tossing it into the shredder and leaving out the door."Were going to the guild to get a new mission" Jet said as if he was ordering her, but the truth was it was a question "Are we going to the guild?" Levy nodded quickly a beat skipping in her heart. What was that note about?

The dream skipped to begin near a friendly stranger whose face became mangled under their raincoat right before grabbing her by her hair and teleporting to a dudgeon where she was left for who knows how much time.

That was until the doors opened, she tried to fight them off until she was completely drained of magic. It was Pep. He had come looking for her, for some reason or another she didn't care but he did until his hand engulfed her face only begin able to remember the fear, the panic, and the quick thought "oh my gosh he's going to suffocate me!" without really knowing why.

*Real Again*

Levy put her head on her knees curled up legs feeling safe that no one could sneak up on her where she sat perfectly curled into the bare corner of the room at the foot of the bed, and cried. She had now officially felt helpless.
