Chapter 3 The attack

Chapter 3 editted thanks to Deyochan :D

Previously

Lucy sat in a bank of a nearby park to breathe the fresh air to calm down a bit. She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she had no idea that some men in the bar had followed her until they were there with her.

….

"Hello, tiny. Are You Alone? I wouldn't mind some company. Give me some fun, pretty." said the highest of the group of men.

Lucy looked at the high ugly man that towered in front of her and she made a disgusted face. He was fat and sweating.

"I don't want your company. Now get off." She said grumpily.

There were five men of middle age, and they were very drunk.

"That is not gonna happen anytime soon." They said unison laughing.

Lucy got tense and attempted to take her keys and her whip, but suddenly invisible chains tied her hands and feet in the bench. They were not ordinary men, they were dark Mages.

Lucy tried to escape from the invisible magical chains that kept her clamped and she started to shout for help.

"Nobody will hear you. I wonder why your stupid teammate has missed this beauty." –The same person said before Lucy replies, while he picked up the chin of the blonde girl and looked directly into her brown eyes.

Lucy grimaced when she felt the breath of the sweating fat dark Mage, who smelled of alcohol. One thing she hated was drunken people. Cana, her friend, was the only exception. And the putrid smell of sweating mixed with alcohol made her feel dizzy.

Shocked and frightened she began to deliver in her thoughts.

'I knew that Laxus, that stupid, arrogant, never would help me. I'm alone, and there's no one out here. It's almost dark. One moment, the sky is almost dark? How much time have I been in the park? That is very strange.' Lucy thought and started to tremble with fear. She could not call her spirits, as chains blocked her magic.

'If Loki could pass the gate…but, this cursed CHAINS ARE RESTRICTING MY SPIRITS IN THEIR WORLD.'

The leader broke contact with her flavored eyes and pulled the jacket of celestial Mage and ripped it. The pink top shirt didn't cover enough of Lucy's body.

"Kyaa-" Lucy squealed and attempted to cover her half-naked body.

The other men were anxious for having their turn with the beautiful blonde girl.

Lucy looked at them with teary eyes. But, there was something else in those brown eyes. There was a spark of fury and hatred. She has the guts to stay strong against the men, despite her condition.

"Don't bother trying to fight us. You're helpless right now, you know that." The leader said.

"Yea, baby. First, we will have fun with you. Nobody will help you. The only scream that I want to hear is my name, whore." Another man said. He was the youngest, but he was taller than Lucy. He had brown spike hair and dark black eyes.

Another magician, who had red eyes and black short hair, approached the celestial Mage and put a hand on top of her thigh, he began to strike the creamy skin of the young blonde and Lucy couldn't stop a shiver with fear in her brown eyes. She tried to move to get far from the perverted man.

"I wouldn't try to scape, dear." Another Mage with silver hair and green eyes sneers.

"Poor celestial spirits, how will they feel when their beloved master didn't belong to them anymore?" The man who had a hand on the thigh of the young girl said and slowly caressed her skin. "Nobody will hear you because of this magical barrier. Time flows differently also here. We like to act at night…" He began to unbutton her gray pants.

"Stop…don't...you…dare."–Lucy said now very scared.

The last man, who was watching the weakly frighten girl, burst out laughing when he saw the helpless woman. That man was the oldest and he had some gray in his green hair.

'No…please…minna…Nat-su…G-ray…Er-za.'-thought while the tears were beginning to come out of her eyes and rolling down on her beautiful face.

Her friends couldn't do anything. No one would listen to her scream. She wasn't stupid; she knew what was going to happen if nobody helped her. After this, she couldn't look straight to the guild with her famous charming smile. They would have been disappointed, because she was a weak and she couldn't defend herself from the perverted men.

Suddenly a loud roar rang and the barrier was dispelled. The men became alert and positioned to attack the intruder. But, that was a wrong move. Two of the men, who were closest to the barrier, were engulfed with a large thunder.

The others stay wide eyed to their partners' luck.

"Show yourself Monster!" The leader spoke and then gripped Lucy's hair and pulling her back to the bench.

"Are you coming for this little chick? We are having some fun with her. If you want her, get her." The fat man said, while he sucked a spot on her neck and licked her collarbone.

"RELEASE ME!" She said struggling, but she was helpless because of the invisible chains.

A good-looking man with spiky blond hair showed himself in front of the three men.

He was very pissed off. He wasn't able to sense the dark Mages in the local, and now the blonde woman was suffering because of them. 'No way am I going to leave Blondie with them! She has to be mine'.

"You hear Blondie." He huffed.

"Not anytime soon. As you can see we are too busy with her, you know." The Mage with silver hair pick up, bridal style the young woman, who could not anything to scape. Then she noticed the perverted hand of the man running down and up her pronounced curves.

Lucy closed her eyes, she was in shock.

Laxus felt his blood boil when he saw the position Lucy was in with the magicians. The celestial Mage wasn't moving or trying to escape.

"You will not get away with this."– He said noticeably angry. 'What do you think you're doing Blondie? Move away from that stupid man! I'm more fucking Hot and stronger.'

Lucy recognized the voice of her travelling partner, even though she was quite confused because it was Laxus who were talking about, forgot sake. The man who never helped people without demanding something to return 'Why has he come? He is only an egocentric, arrogant and a cursed full-of-himself guy. After what he said to me, how he have the guts to come after me?'

A lightning strikes in the sky and wiped out two of the three Mages that remained in the park.

The leader of the group was knocked out and only remained the man who had the celestial Mage in his arms. Lucy was beyond scared to death and could not move, because of the spell that kept her immobilized.

"You won't make a direct attack toward me, friend. Or do you want to hurt this beautiful lady?" –The dark mage said very sure of himself.

Laxus really did not want to send a direct attack towards Lucy, but being so close to the magician didn't give him many options. 'I want her skin unscarred, because my hand one day will be in the same place as yours, Bastard!' The lightning mage though angered.

Laxus sent an arrogant smile to the weak dark magician. 'I won't leave him away with this.'

"So do you really think that I'm interested in that weakling blonde mage?' Laxus burst into a booming laugh. "Don't make me laugh man. Weakly people are not worthy. You should worry about yourself, instead."

The dark mage looked at him with fear. 'Doesn't he care about what could happen to his partner?' He thought in shock.

"¡Y-you are INSANE!' The silver-haired man screamed.

"What still surprises me is that you haven't noticed." Laxus said, mocking with his arrogant chuckle.

Lucy couldn't move, but she was able to hear every little bit of the conversation. Her heart ached at the lack of care of her partner. 'What is he trying to show? He will be forever alone with that attitude. Is he supposed to be a member of Fairy Tail? He is not impressing people acting like that. And why he had come for me, if WEAKLING PEOPLE ARE NOT WORTHY?

In the middle of the confusion Laxus shoved a fist at the mage's jaw and the silver-haired man flew several meters away.

Before Lucy was released from the grip of the dark Mage, who was knocked by the punch of Laxus, the blonde Mage grabbed her between his arms before she fell to the ground.

The spell was broken and Lucy began to move and opened her eyes. When she did it, she found herself faced with a concerned gaze of the blue-grey eyes of Laxus. But that gaze change abruptly with the impassive expression typical of him, that Lucy doubted what she saw a few moments before.

Abruptly; he put her to the ground and then started to walk away from the park.

A very pissed Lucy began to follow him.

"Fuck Blondie, you are weakly and a problematic one. Go my luck." He said angrily.

"If I'm that weak, why have you come then? Weakly people are not worthy of you." She said, imitating the tone of his arrogant voice.

He looked at her and shrugged. He noticed the status of her clothes. Not disliked with the desirable view of the body of that girl, but he didn't want her to get sick. He removed his jacket that was always hanging over his shoulders and put it on Lucy's back.

"Wha…" Lucy said wide eyed. 'What the fuck is in his mind! First, he insulted me and my Nakama, and then he said that I was weak and I was not a worthy woman. Now he puts his JACKET over my shoulders because my clothes were ripped. I don't understand anything.'

"Don't bother to say anything. Or do you want to walk half-naked on our way to Shirotsume?" He said with his pervert smile.

The jacket was too big for Lucy, who wrapped herself tightly.

"Dammit, you're huge." She muttered to herself.

But the lightning Mage hear what she said. His heart stopped. 'She didn't mean it like that, did she?' He restrained a loud growl that came out of his throat and his pants tightened a bit.

Lucy noticed the blonde Mage behavior and flustered at her words.

"I didn't mean it like that, pervert! This jacket is too big for me, that's all." She said.

"If you wanted to throw yourself into me, you could have asked. I won't mind some of your company." The blonde spiky man said lustfully to Lucy.

Lucy groaned and ignored him, while she walked beside him to the center of the town.

When they came out of the park, a golden glow appeared at Lucy's side.

Laxus tensed in alert, but relaxed when he saw one of Blondie's spirits.

Virgo came hugging the celestial Mage.

"Princess! We were worried about you. We couldn't go and help you. Are you okay? Did they do anything to you? It's punishment time?' the pink-haired maid said.

"Virgo, relax. It's not punishment time. I'm ok. They were not able to finish what they were going to do." She answered.

Laxus looked at her wide eyed wondering what if he wasn't in time to stop them, what would have happened? He clenched his fist with fury restraining a loud growl.

But then he noticed that the girl's body has no damage of sexual abuse and relaxed.

"Do you want some new clothes to wear for the trip? I can give you some clothes from your luggage, if you want to."

"Thanks Virgo. New clothes would help. Give me the attire when I go to a bar and to take a bath" The celestial Mage said, giving one more last hug to her spirit.

Virgo faded to the spirit world.

Laxus growled inwardly, grabbed by force Lucy's wrist and dragged away from that place.

"Hey! You're hurting me. Don't hold my wrist like that. I'm not a doll." She huffed angrily.

"Shut your mouth for once in your life Blondie! You are pissing me off."

"I'm not the one who is hauling your with force, damn it. You know that you have an arm whit brick muscles."

Laxus released the grip and looked at her flirtatiously.

"So you are recognizing that I'm hot?" He grabbed her wrist again and pulled her to his chest. "You don't know what I'm capable to do to a gorgeous woman in my arms" He whispered in her ear when he leaned his head to sniff her neck.

Lucy felt his breath on her skin and shivered. Because of their bodies position Lucy's cheeks heat up.

"Stay away from me, perv!" She said, flustered while she pulled away from Laxus's grip.

"I think that you will be lucky to spend time with me, Blondie. Keep that in your mind." He said pleased because he became close to her body. And smiled at the thought of the flustered woman under him or pinned into a wall, while he sucked her collarbone and neck or her bottom lip.

He wakes up on his perverted thoughts and looked at the flustered celestial Mage, who was pouting at him.

'Damn, those pouts. If she was so sexy and gorgeous now, I won't be able to control myself when I have her.' He though lustfully.

"Go and eat something, now." Laxus said when they arrived in the center of Oshibana. He needs to breathe some pure air to calm down. "We leave within an hour."

Lucy became more confused to the reactions of the lightning mage. First, he flirts with her and then he told her that she has to hurry up to start their way to Shirotsume.

She started to walk to another bar to grab some lunch, because she didn't eat anything in the pub where Laxus and she went to have lunch.

Lucy stops herself and turned on her heels. She was against to say what she was going to say, but he was right. No matter how he acts, but he had just saved her life. And because of that, she was beyond grateful.

"La…xus?" She mumbles.

"Uh?" He huffed bored, when he turned his head to look at the celestial blonde Mage.

Laxus was leaning into a wall with his sound pods over his shoulders. He usually listened to rock music to avoid the noise of the street or the guild (during the noisy fights of the guildmates).

"A-riga-tou…" She only receives a grunt for response.

'Tch…you owe me one, Blondie.' He thought with a smirk.

She looked at his pervert smile and groaned annoyed. Then, she turned away and went to the bar.

'I wonder what is he thinking...' She sighed.

She went to counter and grabbed some dishes from the menu. She was hungry, but she will have to hurry up to change clothes and to depart with Laxus to Shirotsume.

'Now if I remember we are going to walk to Shirotsume. Cursed Laxus! He had no idea how to take care of a lady.' Lucy thought annoyed. 'Natsu, how are you so dense that you trusted him. You have no idea how he is...but Natsu grows up in the guild like Mirajane, Cana, Gray, Levy...and Laxus. The fire Mage will now better him for sure. But Natsu was so childish and immature...'

The food came. She moaned when he took a piece of her chicken salad. That food was delicious. She continued eating her chicken salad, while she took small sips of her glass of mineral water.

The screams she made hours ago make her throat go in pain and after drinking some liquid, made her sore more bearable.

Then she took a strawberry dessert and paid to the waiter her lunch.

After her lunch, Lucy went to the bathroom to change her clothes.

Virgo pops out and appear in front of her and gave Lucy some clothes.

"Thank you Virgo!" Lucy said, while she removed Laxus's jacket and put the new green top and a white leather jacket on her.

She changes the gray pants to a yellow one and then she looked herself in the mirror.

"Do you need anything else, Hime? Punishment time, maybe?" Virgo said.

"Don't worry Virgo. No, it's not punishment time. You can go now. I will give back Laxus jacket."

Virgo vanished in gold light.

Lucy sighed and came out the bar.

She found Laxus in the same place he was when she left, with his sound pods over his ears, listening to his music.

He didn't seem to notice her until she looked at his eyes to wake him out of his thoughts.

"Blondie; Dammit. It took you long enough. Hurry up, we are going now." He started to walk away from the center of Oshibana.

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever, sparky." She said pouting.

A lightning cracked just in front of her and she squealed.

"Kyaa-" Lucy jumped backwards to avoid the lightning. "Are you crazy? What were you thinking, Laxus? You could have burned me!"

He looked at her annoyed.

"You call me 'Sparky' one more time and you will get more than little bruises." He threatened.

Lucy gulps uneasy and shut her mouth. She followed him on his way towards Shirotsume.

Laxus didn't guide the lightning to her. He only wanted to frighten her and show to her that she mustn't mess with him.

He sighed. 'Problematic blonde mage.' He thought.

He remembered when he was searching her after he finished his food.

Flashback

It had passed 15 minutes and Lucy had not returned to the local.

Laxus tried to remain calm with the reaction of Blodie. 'Far away from you, jerk.' Her last words remained in his head. 'Stupid, Blondie. I am the best! Every woman will want to be in the same place you are, you are so lucky.' He muttered irritated at the thought of the gorgeous blonde Mage.

'And isn't taking long enough.' He thought irritated while taking a sip of his beer.

"Oi, waiter! Don't take the girl's food. She's not coming." He said uneasily to the waiter in a bad mood.

"Ok, gentleman. Pay your meal then." The waiter said and he started doing his routine tasks in the bar. "Where is the lady? Was she not ok?"

"TCH. It is not your responsibility. Start working for what you're mean to." Laxus said while finishing his meal.

The waiter said nothing else to angrier the lightning Mage.

Laxus paid his food and went out of the local.

He started looking for the celestial Mage, but he didn't see her.

'Where have you gone, chick?' He thought while he was looking for her in the crowded streets of Oshibana.

"TCH. Stupid blonde." He muttered angrily.

At that time he sensed a strange dark magic coming out of a park that was near to the bar where he had had lunch. He knew that Lucy was out there, somewhere, because that he sensed her celestial magic near where he was.

'I hope she hasn't been dragged into any problem. If something happens to her my grandfather will kill me.' For a moment he feared his grandfather's punishment.

Makarov Dreyar could be a very powerful magician, if he became serious. Not for nothing was the master of Fairy Tail.

'But he is getting older and I will take his place one day.' He thought.

He ran towards the park and stopped when he saw a magical barrier. At that time felt that his power was beginning to blossom and many rays jutting from his body. He knew something was happening to his companion and he wouldn't let something should happen to her if he wanted to her to be his, although he was tempted to leave the weakly blonde.

"Stop…don't...you…dare." Lucy said now very scared.

Laxus heard the slight cry of his partner and he did not think twice. He broke the barrier with his magical power.

What he saw made him blood boil. The girl, who wanted to know more and spend time with, was surrounded by some men of the bar.

The closest man was ... unclipping Blondie's gray pants.

'How did I not realize that these imbeciles had followed her?' Laxus blamed himself.

He led his lightning towards the men to help her partner. 'She's mean to be mine, not yours!' He thought.

End of the flashback

"Are we really going to walk to Shirotsume? It will be a long trip." Asked the blond girl disappointed.

Laxus wakes up of his trance replying without bothering to look at her, walking along her thru Oshibanas's streets.

"No. We will hire a magical car to go to Shirotsume."

Lucy looked at him in the eyes surprised. 'But had he not made clear that they would walk up to there? Sometimes I don't understand this dumb blond magician.' She thought confused.

At that time the Laxus interrupted her own thoughts and added,"With a condition, Blondie."

Lucy looks at his travelling partner.

'What condition will it be?' Lucy wondered uneasily.
