Previously on Taste my Pain;
Tears rolled down her eyes as she noticed that she was now being embraced by Zeref. "I understand all of this pain, every single one of them. I'll ease your pain and together, we'll make a new world that'll understand us" Zeref said coldly.
Charles watched with widened eyes, "This is real...Lucy will hug him and then they'll kiss, she'll collapse and then black waves will surround her and she'll never be the Lucy we once knew" Charles stated with tears in her eyes. "Calm down Charles, we can't do anything at this state. Half of the guild is injured from the panicking audience..." Wendy said quietly. "We have to believe in her" Erza said.
Continuing where we left off;
Lucy was slightly pushed back by Zeref who held up her chin. His glowing red eyes were staring right directly at her through her eyes, it was as if she was staring through her soul. Slowly without Lucy knowing it, her eyes went pale like her eyes on her body, she was getting sleepy and tired soon, her eyes gradually closed which made her go into a deep sleep within the darkness.
Zeref smirked as he looked at her pale brown eyes, she was now under his control and he'll do anything in order to make her stay like that in order to make a new world. He slowly pulled Lucy over and made her arms go around his neck, while her arms were around him, he wrapped his arms around her hip, he then pulled her into a deep kiss. He smirked as he heard Fairy Tail screaming out her name but unfortunately, she was now a mere puppet. All he had to do is control her using simple commands.
After the kiss, Zeref let go of Lucy where she suddenly then fell down like a limp body, tears flowing from her eyes. Erza and Gray jumped down from the balcony area and ran over to Lucy but when they got there, negative energy soon flowed out of Lucy, black waves of magic soon danced around Lucy as she laid there. It slowly started to wrap around her body, in a few seconds, she was now covered by a black substance.
Slowly, its winds suddenly levitated Lucy's wrap body and made her body seem to stand, "Time to wake up my beautiful mage" Zeref whispered. The wind suddenly increased as it danced and swirled around Lucy. The wind was then pushed away by a great force, revealing Lucy with normal eyes but only by the color red. Her mothers bracelet broke into shards in Makarov's palm, now there was nothing that can hold down her power.
Everyone shuddered from the great amount of magic and presence that Lucy gave out. She still had her crimson red hair with black streaks, her eyes were crimson red as well which thirst for blood and murder, her clothes was a white flowy dress that stopped above her knees and was slightly ripped on the bottom, she wore a black cloak that was similar to Zeref's and black heels. Her wings were completely shown and she also had her dragon, canine teeth.
"Lucy, is that you?!" Erza said. Lucy was about to say something but she was interfered by loud flapping noises coming from above. There above them were seven mighty dragons, one with black starry scales, one in sky blue, another in red and so on. The red dragon was the first to land down into the arena followed by the rest. They all gave out a deafening roar, Erza and Gray were shocked but thankfully, they manage to cover their ears in time.
"Where's our children?!" They all roared furiously.
"I'm here!" Wendy shouted which caught Grandeeney's attention. Quickly, a few of the dragons used their magic to pick up their children and placed them gently on their back. So there were eight mighty dragons that stood in the arena, Sting and Rogue were picked up by Weisslogia and Skiadrum, Wendy was taken cared of by Grandeeney, Gajeel was taken by Metalicana, Cherita and Starisha looked at Lucy who refused their magic while Igneel growled at Lisanna who was holding onto a hypnotized Natsu.
Cherita looked over to Makarov and growled at him, "If you have refused to have Lucy take off her bracelet then something like this didn't happen." Cherita gowled. "Well, Lucy refused my opinion, please bring back Lucy back to this world" Makarov stated. He heard Cherita curse as she growled to Zeref with her teeth showing. Before any action could be heard, Igneel gave out a deafening roar to Lisanna which made her flinch. He slowly approached her with his eyes glowing red, "You are in no position to hold onto my son! Your magic to take over my son is useless!" Igneel said ferociously to Lisanna and then to Zeref.
"So noisy..." Lucy mumbled as she covered her right ear.
"So you're his beloved dragon. It's nice to meet you father..." Before Lisanna could use her magic, Igneel cut her off, "Don't bother using such words. You're never going to be accepted into the family! Trying won't do a difference -" Igneel was interrupted by Lucy kicking Lisanna on the neck which made her flying towards the wall. Thankfully, from surprising Lisanna, she let go of Natsu. "What are you doing Lucy?!" Zeref barked in frustration. "Princess!" They all shouted out in shock.
"Oh shut up you old geezer!" Lucy shouted. She had to break free while she was transforming into someone new, she can only last being herself for a few seconds. Quickly, Lucy kissed Natsu forehead which made him glow a light pink color on his head. Slowly his eyes returned back to normal and he got up to look at Lucy, "Get back here Lucy!" Zeref shouted. This time he used his hands to grab her on the neck using his magic, he slowly pulled her to him which made all the dragon's growl, he made her look into his eyes once again, she refused but struggling was useless, soon her eyes went back to pale.
Zeref smirked once he was back in control. "What have you done to our princess?!" Starisha roared.
"My darling, kill these useless dragons. They should be extinct...no, their heads should be cut off and get sold at some auction" Zeref ordered.
"Why won't you do it yourself dear? I really don't like handling all of these filthy creatures" She replied.
"Lucy-sama, please come back! Remember you're someone who we're loyal to!" Cherita shouted. "What's going on?!" Natsu shouted confused, "You! Hurry up and get on my back!" Igneel ordered in an angered tone. Natsu flinched and quickly ran up Natsu's back. Erza and Gray went on Cherita and Starisha's back, the two dragons looked at them two, "We're Lucy's friends, we're not going to let her disappear again!" They both shouted with determination. The two dragons nodded and looked back to Lucy who was chuckling.
"But it'll be my pleasure. I'll bring all of these dragons into the darkness!" Lucy shouted as she laughed insanely. "Fire Dragon's Roar!" Lucy shouted as she attacked them.
Igneel moved up forward, and ate up the flames, "Fire Dragon's Rage!" Igneel cried out. "Ahahahas, that's awesome! I really want to chain them up now and keep them in a cage" Lucy said with a dark laughter. "Water Slicer!" Juvia yelled as she charged at Lucy from the back. Lucy dodged it and fought back, "Water Dragon's Wing Attack!" This time Cherita moved forward, "Water Dragon's Roar!"
Juvia ran up and jumped onto Cherita's back, "Juvia going to fight alongside with you!" She shouted with determination. "Illusion: Metal Cage!" Wendy chanted. All the dragon's looked over to Wendy, "Wendy, how did you learn that magic?" Grandeeney asked with shock. "Lucy taught me" Explained Wendy. "I thought that since it's an illusion, Lucy won't be able to eat it" Wendy stated, "Great job my child" Grandeeney complimented.
"Illusion: Flashbacks of Lucy's Happy Memories!" Wendy continued.
Soon memories started to play within the cage and Lucy watched it intensively, she started laughing madly, "Something like these are futile, I was nothing but a mere fool to join the guild that claims to be strong. If you're stro-" Lucy was cut off by Zeref. "Let's go, we need to start the plan" Zeref stated as he broke the illusion spell. Lucy nodded and ran over to Zeref and linked arms with him. "You're lucky. This time I will kill you Natsu Dragneel" Lucy said slyly as she vanished.
Lucy and Zeref were gone and the dragon's gave out roars that seemed to be wails. Their attention soon turned over to Lisanna who slowly got up from the rubble of bricks that she smashed. "Damn, that bitch got aw-" Lisanna sweat-dropped when she saw seven dragons with glowing eyes looking at her. "YOU! I'm going to make you feel our mistress's pain!" Starisha yelled in anger.
"Celestial Dragon's Roar!"
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
"Water Dragon's Roar!"
"Sky Dragon's Roar!"
"White Dragon's Roar!"
"Shadow Dragon's Roar!"
"Iron Dragon's Roar!"
All of their roars hit Lisanna which made her scream in terror, her high-pitched voice echoed the arena as she screamed in pain. Natsu and the others watched with fear written on all of their faces. Lisanna barely managed to stand until Igneel used his tail to coil her body tightly.
"What are you all doing?! Erza, Wendy?! Say something! Only the two of you stood there and watched. What's happening?!" Natsu asked. Grandeeney was indeed ticked off, she did the same thing that Igneel had done to Lisanna. Igneel didn't mind because if there wasn't such a filthy girl inside his wrapped tail then obviously he would have done it too. "What are you doing you pathetic dragon?!" Natsu barked. Cherita transformed into her human form and gracefully helped Erza to reach the ground before hurting herself, angry, she ran up on Grandeeney's back and slapped him in the face. The slap echoed the arena as Fairy Tail looked at Cherita shocked as she slapped him.
"What right do you have to say that?! You're the same thing?!" Cherita yelled in anger. "What are you sa-" Natsu saw Cherita crying with tears in her eyes. "Why?! Out of everyone in this world! Why does the princess must fall in love with this pathetic boy?!" Cherita cried. Natsu looked around to see all the dragon's looking away with tears in their eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about but why are you hurting Lisanna?! She didn't do a thing!" Natsu argued. At that point, all the dragon's transformed into their human forms, except for Igneel and Grandeeny, and they were about to throw punches and kicks to Natsu.
"Why are you defending her again?!" A voice echoed the room, it was a girl's voice. It sounded pale but sweet, similar to someone who they care. "Princess! Where are you?!" Igneel yelled out. "There's no point in looking for me, these are my thoughts, my telepathy, I'm communicating to you all now using my magic. There's no point in looking for me..." Lucy said in a saddened tone. "What are you talking about Lucy?! Let's all hurry up and come home and enjoy dinner together" Erza shouted. "I now have no purpose in living. I'm so weak that I can't even control my own body...I now live with no feelings of emotion. All I can do now is stay by your side using my magic" Lucy stated.
A warm light soon appeared and the dragon's all gathered around it. The light soon grew into an image of Lucy. "This is my ghost-image, I cannot do anything in this body but I can use this body to support you all until my magic runs out" Lucy said. "Princess...Shouldn't we just tell them everything? If we do this then -" Grandeeney was cut off but Lucy who was coughing out blood. "PRINCESS?!" The dragon's yelled with surprise. "I'm fine...Just promise me that you'll all live happily without me" Lucy gradually said as her body started to fade. "Don't make such assumptions! We're all going to get through this!" Cherita shouted with tears in her eyes. "And what will I protect to continue fighting? My love was broken and my family was taken over so easily...There's nothing for me to protect" Lucy sadly said as her image vanished. "Good luck to you all..." She said and soon she was gone.
"What did she love?! Taken over?! Come on guys, this joke is seriously not funny" Natsu joked awkwardly as he looked around to see everyone around him said.
"Isn't that great?! She's gone from our lives?!"
"Why didn't this happen earlier? She would've been out of here!"
"Damn, we forgot to remove her guild mark!"
Cherita gave out a roar that made them snap out of it, "So this is what Lucy-sama meant...YOU'RE ALL PATHETIC!" Cherita shouted out which made them surprised. "They're not pathetic people and Lisanna has done nothing wrong!" Natsu argued. Erza walked up and smacked him across the face, tears rolled down her face as she looked up, "Shut up! What about Lucy huh?! Are you going to forget her?!" Erza shouted. "What are you talking about?" Natsu asked.
Fairy Tail looked at them strangely, "It's because of you people who made her like this! All you care about is power! You judge people by their power! Just because Lucy is a Stellar Spirit mage, you all thought that she used her spirits as a weapon!" Wendy shouted with tears in her eyes.
"Listen here Fairy Tail! All of your strange emotions and actions to Lucy was because of that bitch over there! Because of you people who thought she was weak, that filthy girl had the power to make those emotions come spurting out of your mouth with changes from her mind. You were controlled to make our princess like this! If you people never had thought of that then nothing would have happened! Thanks to you people, our princess is in danger of being sacrificed to make a new world! She has more potential in living then you filthy people! You never thought about her emotions or anything, you were never a family, you just doubted people just because they're different! -" Cherita explained with anger.
"- Because of that jealous idiot over here, she made Lucy's heart crumble into a million pieces! and do you know who made life easier for her to take over your bodies?! YOU PEOPLE DID! All Lucy ever wanted was a family or even a special person that would always think of her as herself. She wanted someone who would always be right by her side and calm her down whenever she's in trouble! She just wanted a family, a family who'd accept her for who she was, a family who would defend her even though she never needed it, she wanted affection! Love! Now if you're going to defend this bitch, go ahead because that'll mean that we'll kill you all without hesitation since you're all siding with someone who hurted Lucy for all these years till now. If you're going to be a real family and want to help Lucy then shut up and watch us kill her! No! send her to some place where she can suffer!" Igneel yelled as he ended Cherita's explanation.
"Lucy was hurt badly, you never thought of her and when she vanished from the guild, no one went out to search for her. Do you know how much she has cried from all of the pain that you gave her?! Thanks to the person she loved so much, she was even more hurt. All he ever thought about was the return of his childhood friend! You all pushed her to the side when she needed it!" Starisha said.
"And to think the person that she loved for all these years was this pathetic Natsu. Everyday, crying out his name..." Cherita cussed as she walked down Grandeeney's back and to Igneel who lowered his tail so Cherita could talk to Lisanna's face. "To think you have the guts to teach you Forgotten Magic." Cherita asked with frustration.
Mavis jumped down and walked over to Cherita, "Is that you Mavis?" Cherita asked. "Hai. It's been a while since we first met" Mavis replied as she looked over to Lisanna, "Who taught you this magic? I remembered that all the guild founders hid this magic somewhere in a different world" Mavis said threatenly. "I dunno, I walked into an old library and saw a book that caught my attention. Looking at it, I found that spell that was said that it can control people's thoughts..." Lisanna stuttered as she replied. "Fire Dragon, if you may?" Mavis asked.
Igneel nodded before slamming her down onto the ground with a heavy force. "I'll ask you again. Who taught you this spell?" Mavis said but this time with a meaner voice. "Alright! This cloaked man taught me!" Lisanna shouted as she winced in pain. "That's definitely him" Cherita said.
"Because of your pathetic actions, heavy punishment must be made. Cherita, can you open up a portal to Edolas Dark?" Mavis asked. "Mavis! We couldn't! That place is much too dangerous for a mage like her!" Cherita reasoned.
"I think it's a great place. She's been lying to everyone for all these years. She deserves it" Igneel said.
"This is something unforgivable, I think it's the right choice to make. If we place her somewhere where she can actually learn her lesson then I agree. I don't want to say this but, someone who has made many sins and made her nakama suffer this much is unforgivable, I give you permission to let her stay there forever. Just remember to throw in food while we're at it" Master Makarov said.
"Very well then, Open: Gateway to Edolas Dark!" Cherita said. A portal soon opened up and it was nothing but black inside, it was something that no one would dare to enter. Edolas Dark was a place of darkness, monsters roam freely inside that world and it's somewhere that forbids magic to be used. Everyone could hear the faint wails from the winds that fly pass the portal. Quickly, Igneel threw Lisanna in, Starisha summoned some spirits to throw in some food and water that you last around four years and then Cherita closed the portal.
"Let me make it clear my children. We're Fairy Tail mages, we take care of our nakama, we all treat them equally, if something were to happen to our nakama, we'll go and rescue them, when they struggle to survive, we'll help them overcome that. We're a guild that should treat everyone the same no matter how much of a love rival they are. Lisanna who has made Lucy badly hurt and has been casting magic on you all to make you treat Lucy like that is unforgivable. 'IF' you were to use Forgotten magic then you're supposed to come to us guild master's and talk about it. This situation is now out of hand because of her and I hope that you all should know our motto in Fairy Tail." Makarov shouted.
"What have we been doing for all of these years...Even Lucy gave us an another chance to make us become a family again but we..."
"I feel horrible...To be used freely like a puppet"
"Lucy-nee..."
Natsu punched the cold, snowy ground with tears in his eyes. "I'm so sorry Luce. I didn't notice how much I've been hurting you...I found my answer to your question. Ha, Am I too late to chance my answer? If you two were to be in danger then I'll come and let you run into my arms and together we'll save Lisanna..." Natsu said as he dropped his head. "I'm not going to let Zeref lay his hands on you. Afterall, you've been waiting for the stupid me to return your feelings, I love you Lucy and I'll come to your rescue like your dreamed prince Natsu" Natsu said as he lifted up his head.
"YOSH! LET'S ALL GO AND SAVE OUR LUCY!" Natsu cheered as he fist-pumped the air. Slowly, everyone lifted up their heads and soon their faces all lit up with hope. "YEA!" They all cheered. They were soon cut off by a lacrima screen that was displayed suddenly. "Our new strongest guild in Magnolia is Fairy Tail! Congratulations! They're a guild that proves that strength isn't the only thing that's needed to become a guild. Not only strength but the tight bonds that hold each other closer to one another!" Mato announced.
Cheering could be heard from the outside and Fairy Tail cheered in happiness. "Now shall we all return to the guild and plan out our plan. Since I have a tight bond with Lucy-sama, I can still sense her magic" Cherita said softly. Everyone nodded. "Open: Gateway to Fairy Tail Guild!" Cherita chanted. "Now..." Grandeeney used her wind to lift up everyone and helped them head straight to the portal. She stopped her magic and helped Cherita guide them inside the portal.
Cherita was walking next to Natsu. "Maybe I should accept you as Lucy's lover now since you know your true emotions to her. Let me tell you something, if you hurt Lucy-sama's feelings again, I'll send you to where we sent that sinful mage to" Cherita threatened. "I get it. To think I was so clueless, my Luce is a strong girl. To think I called her weak...I guess I must have wanted to protect her like a knight in a shining armor She really is someone special to me and I don't want to let her go ever again" Natsu said shyly. "You've said well my boy" Cherita chuckled as they walked out of the colorful portal.
- While they were planning, Lisanna... -
"Guys...I'm cold...Where am I?!" Lisanna asked. She heard a growl behind her and quickly she ran away from the wolf-like beast that chased after her. "I WANNA GO HOME! MUMMY!"
Did you all enjoy today's update? I did lots of thinking and I almost hit writers block from thinking to much!
Anways, the reason that I'm writing down here for an author's not was because I thought you guys wanted to continue on with the fanfic rather than reading my author's note first.
P.S Should I use my Gmail to help you guys get up to date with my fanfiction? Like, maybe some video trailers for a new fanfic or some teasers for a big, big, chapter coming up. Because, starting from today, I think I'll be updating every two days. Using Gmail will be like adding me into your circle and wherever you are, you'll be updated while I'm school and such. Plus, I'll be writing in some one-shots while I'm at on Gmail. If you think I should, just place a yes in the review. If you don't think I should and you don't mind waiting for a long time when I'm sick or something then write no.
No hard feelings will be made for this simple voting ^
