'You'll never get away from here. I'll always be watching you even if it doesn't seem like it. If you try escaping I will track you down. And if you're able to make it to the village, just letting you know I will prey on every single living being there without hesitation. My offspring will grow up to be just like me so we can continue the family tradition that has been going on for hundreds of years.'

Ever since Gajeel said that I haven't been able to get it out of my mind. Was that why he wanted to have a child with me? Just so he can continue the family tradition of terrorizing people. I don't want my child following in his footsteps.

There should be no reason why he should be doing this. I can't let my unborn child enter a world like this. He shouldn't be placed in this type of situation. I don't want him or her to prey on the living. They can prey on animals, but they shouldn't do that to people.

For the first time since I've been here, it's a sunny day! I was walking in the woods holding tightly onto my stomach. I've been so protective lately. I'm unsure of when I'm going to pop. It could be any time or anywhere. I told Gajeel he needed to be aware of anything that might happen.

He said I was going to have the baby in the water so it'll be easier for me to push it out. I'm just wondering if he knows how to deliver a baby? He probably doesn't know how to, but I'm hoping he's aware of how to do it.

I had arrived at the river to see no one was around. There were no wild animals or any that were passing by, so I was in the clear to strip. I removed my hood and slipped off my dress. My body was exposed and I looked down to see my stomach was stretched out a bit. I hope I'm able to make the fat go away once I push the baby out.

I shivered as I stepped into the cold water. I wish I could have a hot bath at home. Coldwater has been relaxing me since I've been here. It relaxes my muscles and also relieves my stress. I laid against a rock to just close my eyes. I had to let go of everything that has recently happened.

Seeing Alzack die has given me a warning that I'll never be able to escape from here. I feel like I'm the reason why he hasn't gotten back to his family. They will never see him again because Gajeel has killed him.

I've never seen him physically kill a person, but seeing it up close has convinced me he is the Devil himself. The way he did it was so intentional. He laughed when he saw me look at Alzack's head in fear. Why would he think that's funny? It's like seeing people fear him makes him happy. What a jackass! I seriously wish someone can come either save me or put me out of my misery. I don't want my baby to be harmed in any way, I would never put that on him or her.

"Lucy..." I heard someone say my name. It didn't sound like Gajeel because his voice is a bit rough. The person's voice sounded very calm. I opened my eyes to see someone I haven't seen in months. My heart was pounding to the point I felt like I was about to pass out.

"Rogue!" I said surprised to see him after six months. "Lucy, you're alive?" he said getting down on both of his knees. I nodded my head because I didn't know what to say. I could feel my eyes watering up from what I was taking in.

"What...how...where have you been these past few months?" he asked still on his knees trying to gather all of his thoughts together. I still didn't say anything to Rogue. My tongue was tied! "I though-thought you were dea-dead Lucy," he stuttered about to cry. The tears started to roll down my cheeks out of pain and guilt.

I have to get away from him before Gajeel comes after him. I started to slowly move towards my clothing so I could put it on and leave. I cared about Rogue, which is why I couldn't be around him. I got out of the water naked putting on my clothes. I looked back at Rogue to see he looked hurt.

I turned around making my way back home to Gajeel's place. I could hear the water splashing indicating that Rogue was following me. I couldn't run because my feet were killing me. Usually, when I'm laying down I try to massage them. Since my belly is getting bigger it's hard for me to even reach my feet.

I kept looking back to see if Rogue was following me, but I didn't see him. I stopped then turned around to hear if any water was splashing or sticks were cracking. I had to catch my breath before I could be on the move again.

I took a few steps back until I felt I bumped into somebody. I didn't know who could be behind me so I turned around to see it was Rogue. How did he get from the other side of the river to here so fast? I was about to get away from him until he stopped me. "Lucy please calm down...I haven't seen you in months and I need an explanation?" he pleaded as I stopped fighting him.

I looked around to see if Gajeel was near, but I don't think he was. Almost a minute had gone by until I calmed down. He had released me as I turned around to face him. Seeing him again was making me so emotional. I couldn't help but reach in to hug him.

I haven't seen Rogue in months and I had missed him. I felt safe when he had hugged me back. When the both of us had parted from each other he had observed my face until he looked down. "What happened to you Lucy?" he asked looking deep into my eyes. I didn't know what to tell him while I was staring at those crimson eyes of his.

"I don't know!" I said feeling my eyes get watery again. I bit down on my tongue because I knew I was about to cry. Rogue started to wipe the tears that were sliding down my cheeks and bring me in for a hug again. "It's okay you can tell me," he calmly said.

"I was kidnapped and raped by him," I said shaking out of fear. "Who kidnapped and raped you?" he asked with anger in his voice. "The wolf!" I said digging my nails in his shoulders. "He also killed Alzack too!" I cried out.

"I figured, but those do explain the other footprints in the dirt," he said thinking about it. "I was trying to help him get back since Gajeel was hunting," I told him as he parted from me. "Gajeel...Gajeel...I feel like I heard the name before," he said thinking about it.

"What do you mean you heard the name before?" I asked a bit surprised. "You can call me crazy, but that's the name of Levy's I guess boyfriend," he slightly said. "Levy's what now?" I asked a bit surprised. "I don't know their relationship is kinda confusing," he said thinking about it.

"Speaking of Levy, how is she doing?" I asked him. He looked like he didn't want to say anything. Rogue stared at the ground and just started fiddling with his cape. "Ever since she heard you were dead she has been grieving a lot," he said emphasizing 'a lot.

"What exactly do you mean?" I asked him worried. "Well she always walks to the places you guys walk to with each other, she's been reading your favorite books, she buys bread, and she visits your grave where your burnt house is," he said. "Poor Levy I didn't think my death would still bother her," I said taking a seat on a log.

"She isn't the only one. Almost everybody who knew you were sad and we had arranged a funeral for you and your grandmother. I was broken when I saw your house burnt down with a dead body inside. I recognized it was your grandmother but I didn't know where your body was so I had to look around. I noticed there were small and big footprints leaving the house letting me know you were running away from the wolf, but when I arrived I didn't see you. There was blood around the area so I had assumed he had killed you," he sadly explained.

"Oh, I'm so sorry Rogue that you and the others had to go through something like that...I'm the reason why my house is burnt," I said fiddling with my fingers. "It's not your fault Lucy. If anything it's my fault because I'm the huntsman and I've been around you and your grandma's house for years to make sure you were protected, but it seems I didn't make it in time to save neither one of you," he sounded like he was to blame.

"It's okay Rogue-" I said until he interrupted me by saying: "No it's not! Who is keeping you hostage and what does he look like?" he asked getting his weapon out. "Rogue you can't just go immediately attack him without a plan," I told him. "Lucy who is he?" he sternly asked gripping his weapon.

"Like I said before his name is Gajeel," I then had taken a deep breath: " he has tan skin, he's tall, has long black spiky hair, crimson eyes like yours, piercings everywhere, pointy teeth, and he's muscular," I said as he had to think about it. He didn't say anything for about a minute or two.

"Rogue, what are you thinking?" I asked as he sighed. "This might be hard for you to hear," he said looking away from me. "What do you mean...what are you hiding from me Rogue?" I asked him. "You're having his baby right?" he asked with his tone changing. He didn't sound too happy about me having Gajeel's baby. He sounded sad and a little upset!

"Sadly yes, but I don't want to look at it that way. I like to see that I'm having my baby that was given to me because most rape victims don't accept their unborn child," I said as I saw a small smile appear on his face. "I'm glad you have a different way of seeing things," he said making me smile.

"So what are you trying to tell me?" I asked as his tone and movement started to change once again. "You know how I told you that Levy has been grieving?" he asked as I nodded. "Well she's been messing around with this guy that fits your description," he said rubbing the back of his head.

"Excuse me?" I awkwardly smiled at him. "She or He's been what now?" I asked with my voice getting higher. "She's been messing around with a guy that fits your description. I'm not even sure if they are dating because all they do is fuck, I remember I saw them fucking in the library," he said a bit disgusted.

"So she's basically been having odd behavior," I said summing it up. "Yeah because no offense she's been a bitch specifically towards me. She gives me this hateful look as if I had killed you. Whenever I'm around her I always hear her mumble 'murderer'," he exclaimed.

"Levy did have her high hopes that you were the wolf," I told him. "That still doesn't give her a reason to be mad at me," he said sounding upset. "Sorry for getting off-topic, but is Gajeel usually gone during the daytime?" he asked me. "For the past couple of months, he has been leaving me alone," I said as he seemed like he caught on to something.

"He's probably been coming to the village to mess around with Levy," he said. "That might explain why he smells weird and has hickeys all over his body. I can't believe he would do this. Why does he choose to do me like this? Why the fuck would you get me pregnant if all you are going to do is fuck around with some other girl, but not just some girl, it had to be my fucking goddamn best friend," I was getting angry.

For the first time in a while, I was mad! All this time I was suffering all alone, and he laughed at me. He not just trying to keep me away from the village, he also taking advantage of the situation. He knows exactly who Levy is. I know he's been watching me!

All I did was walk around with Levy, go to the bakery, and walk home with Rogue. I can barely see at night, but he can see very clearly. Gajeel has been watching me from afar if he knew where I lived, what I like to eat, people I talked to, and what I looked like.

I didn't know I stood up from the log. I was breathing hard and my skin was red. Rogue had brought me into a hug as I screamed in his chest. "Are you upset that he kinda cheated on you?" he nervously asked me. "Kinda, but I'm more upset that he ruined my life. And he's about to ruin his son or daughter's life," I cried.

"Plus he's taking advantage of Levy, he killed Alzack, Jet, Droy, my grandma, etc. This is all so he can continue his family tradition of terrorizing the village," I exclaimed. "I see...I'm now aware of who you are dealing with," he sternly said looking down at the ground.

"Rogue," I said his name as he focused his full attention on me. "You say you know more about the wolf as a huntsman right?" I asked as he nodded. "I have a proposal for you...if you kill Gajeel Redfox I will pay you in any way, name your price," I sternly offered.

"I will hold off on the price, but I will kill Gajeel Redfox!" he said as I could feel an aura from him.
