The sadness begins... But it's only the beginning.

Day Two

(Lucy Pov)

Me and Happy wake up the next morning to a loud alarm, and screaming... The battle begins. "Happy, stay inside. You can take all the fish you want, just stay inside." I order him, and he responds with an,"Aye!"

I sigh in relieve to that, and I rush to get outside, without breakfast. I take out the key from the wall, and put it around my neck.

My friends are all ready outside and guarding. I make my half of my barrier around my area of the room. As I do this, I stare outside, looking out at the evil people of Chaos Crimson. They're barging into people's houses, killing the innocent.

I turn my head away from the window and concentrate on the barrier. That's when Zeref stands up from his spot.

Impossible.

That shouldn't be happening, He's supposed to be paralyzed. I keep my barrier up, knowing that he still can't use his magic inside the barrier and cell.

But, I was wrong. I saw the magic pills dangling from his neck, and I'm sure that the others noticed it too, because I felt Metalicana drop his barrier and attack him.

I saw Metalicana attack him with his Metal Poison attack, but when I thought Zeref would dodge, he didn't. Instead, he let it hit him, then he took the poison, put it on his finger, and licked it.

My legs started trembling... I shivered, and I unconsciously let the barrier drop. With that happen, all the other barriers were forced to drop too.

Then a man came in from the window, and attacked Igneel with his magic. His magic was Ice magic, just like Gray, and he made an Ice spear, and jabbed it into Igneel's good arm. He was completely unprepared for the attack, and was struck head on.

I snapped out of it and made sure to block anymore people from coming through the window. I could hear people fighting behind me.

I felt Ryo and Grandeeney put back the barrier, but it wasn't as strong as before so I still had to fight off the people from the window.

Then I heard two sets of footsteps come running at me from behind, and a person get stabbed... I look back, putting my own barrier on the window, and found Grandeeney barely standing in front of me, with a spear jabbed right through her chest, and the man from the window holding the other side of the spear.

He takes out the spear and fights off Igneel again, I could see as the power from each of my friends get stronger, in rage for Grandeeney. She falls back, but I catch her in time.

She puts her right hand on my face as she lies on my lap. "L-Lucy, *Cough* make sure you stay happy okay? *Cough* Don't look for revenge... You know that I wouldn't like that. None of us would..."

Then her hand falls from my face, and she lies there, not moving. I could feel as my tears fell to my cheeks, as I screamed out in sadness.

My tears fall from my face, landing on Grandeeney. I carefully lay her down on the ground, and I whisper to her."As you wish, I will not get revenge... But I still have a job to finish, so I'll finish this job in honor to you."

I stand up, and fight the people at the window, once again. I could see as the other EA class mages who were put into this mission fight the evil ones. Why now? Aren't they too late for that? The evil has already killed the people of the city.

When I saw no one else come to the window, I watched the rest of the fight. Now Igneel has defeated the man from the window, and is helping Metalicana with Zeref.

Me and Ryo are working with the barrier. Zeref is playing with them. I can see that. Then I look at the window again, and the EA class mages from the other guilds are defeated. "Ryo, I'm going to clear out the bad guys outside from here okay?" And he just nods.

I take a deep breath, then shout outside the window,"O' Heavenly Dragon of God, I ask of you to have those who are evil in Chaos Crimson to disappear... DISAPPEAR." And the bad guys from outside all evaporate into thin air.

Why didn't I think about it before? If I had done that earlier, then Grandeeney wouldn't have died. It's all my fault, it's my fault she died. Then a voice came into my head.

"Yes... It's all your fault. It was always your fault. You made Lissana become who she is today. You seperated Natsu and Lissana's relationship out of jealousy. You killed your friend Grandeeney. It's all your fault..."

I couldn't figure it out. No one was speaking, so it had to be from my head. And I couldn't find out if it was a woman or a man. It had a bit of both.

No. It couldn't be, I would never do that, right? I'm innocent, I'd never do anything like that! I tumbled to my knees and started shaking.

I looked around... All blank. Where am I? I could hear Ryo calling out to me, but where is he? I can't see him. I try to call back to him, but I just don't feel like it... It's going to be my fault again. I can't see him because I'll be at fault.

I scan my surroundings. I can only see me in this blank space... Alone. I wander around, looking for something. But what was I looking for? What was it? What am I looking for?

I spot a door, and run to it. But no matter how much I run to it, I realize that I'm not going anywhere.

"You can't get there Lucy Heartfilia. You don't know all of your faults yet. Did you know that you're at fault for your mom's death too? and you made your father the person he is right now."

I block my ears so that I wouldn't hear the voice... But no matter what, I could still hear it. I'm horrified of what I heard though...

I caused suffering in this world? Does mom hate me now? She couldn't, I'm her daughter. I wait for the tears to come out... But they don't.

Instead, there's ink falling out. Am I Lucy still? Was I ever Lucy? No... I'm a monster. Then the voice comes back into my head.

"That's not all... Juvia and Gray, did you know that Gray liked you? But Juvia liked him. When you gave Gray a peck on the cheek four years ago, Juvia gave up on him. She slapped him, really hard and got a boyfriend. You know right, they would have made a good couple. But you ruined it... Again."

The voice keeps telling me of all the sufferings I've caused. I'm evil. A bad person. I kill...

So... See you in the next chapter. Wonder what will happen to her.
