Lucy's POV
I woke up in a prison. It was dark and it smelled awful. I didn't hear a thing. There was no light, looked like it was underground. I searched for my keys but I didn't find them. I started to cry and a man came in and looked at me from the window on the door.
"Don't cry little girl, I won't hurt you. I need you to be in your best condition" The man said smirking.
I didn't answer and just looked at the ground.
"Don't wanna talk? I can't blame you. You're probably scared right now. Calm down, will ya? Here, I brought you something to eat" He said and opened the door. He gave me soup, rice, bread and a glass of water.
"Eat this, you will feel better" He said calmly and went out the door and locked it.
I looked at the food, feeling my stomach crying for me to eat. Hesitatingly I started eating, still crying.
After I finished eating everything, the man came back and took everything. A few minutes later he came back again with a new glass of water and locked the door with him inside. He sat in front of me and just stared at me. I stared back.
"Feeling better?" He asked.
"Y-yes" I whispered.
"Good. Look, I don't want to hurt you, so you better do what I tell you to do" He said calmly.
"Why" I asked still whispering.
"Why? Do you not know the power you have?" He asked confused.
"Power? I'm just a celestial mage" I replied a bit louder.
"You are not just a celestial mage. You are the celestial mage, the pri-" He was cut off when someone knocked on the door and said there is an emergency. He didn't say a thing and left the room, locking it. I had no idea what was going on.
Natsu's POV
We were running alongside with the carriage tracks, with Lucy's scent getting stronger every second.
"We are close" Gajeel said to everyone behind.
"Good" Gramps said and we all stopped when we got to a dark cave which smelled of blood and death. Gramps looked at it with a worried face.
"We have to work fast" Gramps said turning to us.
"What should we do?"Erza asked.
"First group will fight, second group will look for Lucy by her scent, which Wendy can pick up and follow." Gramps explained as everyone nodded.
"Gramps… Why… W-why are people trying to get her?" I asked looking deep into Gramps's eyes.
"I cannot tell you yet, but I already said, that girl is special and we need to keep her safe" He replied looking at me with a serious face.
I looked down as they were getting ready to go in when I smelled someone that I don't know running to us from the cave. I heard his stop and then turning around and running back.
"They know we are here" I said and everyone turned to look at the cave.
First group went in to fight and distract the people inside while the second group went to find Lucy. We saw about 50 people ready to charge. We all smirked and charged in.
"I'm all fired up!" I yelled as I jumped in the air and knocked out 2 people.
Wendy's POV
A few minutes after the first group went inside, we went in and followed Lucy's sent. We went down some stairs and got to a huge cellar. I sniffed the air again.
"She is somewhere here, but there are too many scents here so I can't find where exactly she is" I said trying to find the way to her.
"Alright then, we will split up. Everyone go and look for her! Warren, use telepathy to connect all of us so that when someone finds her, we can call each other" Lissana said and everyone nodded and went to look for Lucy.
I followed the scent of hers but it was everywhere. I got to a part with an iron door, locked. I decided to call someone to help me through the telepathy.
'Mina! I-I found a huge door and it's locked. I t-think Lucy m-might be in there' I sent a message to everyone.
'Alright! I looked everywhere here and all I saw was empty cells. I'm coming to help' Yokino replied.
'Me too, and Alzack is here with me so we will both come to you right away' Bisca said.
'Let's just all go!' Lissana said and everyone agreed and ran to me.
After a few minutes everyone came and looked at the door.
"I don't see runes on it so it won't be a problem to open it" Levy said and Freed agreed.
"Good, then we need to blow it up!" Gajeel said cracking his knuckles.
"Wait! What it Lucy is right there? We might hurt her!" Levy yelled at Gajeel.
"She is right, we can't just blow it up" Lissana said thinking of a new thing
"Wait, the door is iron, right? Evegreen asked and everyone nodded.
"So…" She continued and looked at Gajeel like he is a moron.
"What?!" Gajeel snapped at her.
"WOW! Really!? You can EAT iron dumbass! Just eat the frisking door!" She snapped back and everyone felt like idiots.
"O-oh, yeah… "Gajeel replied quietly and went to the door.
We all watched as Gajeel eat the door and started to see the other side slowly. Gajeel stopped for a second to look inside.
"It looked like there are more cells closed with iron doors. She is probably in one of them" He said and went back to eating.
.A few moments later there was a huge hole in the door, Big enough for everyone to go through.
We all went in and started to open the windows on the doors looking for Lucy. I couldn't smell her and I knew she was somewhere there.
"Hey everyone! This door has runes on it! She must be here!" Levy said and we all ran to the last cell in the room.
Freed and Levy worked on re-writing the runes while Gajeel ate some more iron and everyone else just waited.
After about 30 minutes, Levy and Freed finished and Lucy's scent filled the room, Strawberry and Vanilla, with a hint of salt which was probably from her tears.
Max opened the window and saw Lucy sleeping on the floor. Gajeel quickly ate the door and we all ran to Lucy. Warren said he can't reach her so she might be unconscious.
I tried to heal her but it didn't work.
"What happened to her?" I asked while everyone stared at her.
Lucy's POV 2 hours earlier.
After the man left me, I felt my throat dry as if I didn't drink water for the past week. I took the glass and drank it all. It had a weird taste but I didn't mind. After that I tried to feel where my keys are, but I couldn't feel anything. I slowly felt my body getting numb, and before I knew it I couldn't move. The man came in my room again and smirked at me.
"Well, I thought I would have to make you drink that. You made my day a bit easier. Don't worry, you won't die, you will just fall asleep for a few hours, but you won't be able to feel anything. I will see you soon" He said and left the room.
I wanted to cry but the tears wouldn't come out. I tried to scream but I couldn't use my voice. I was paralyzed. A few moments later I felt myself fall asleep. I didn't hear anything, I didn't feel anything, and I didn't see anything. Everything was pitching black.
Natsu's POV
We were fighting without a problem, knocking down every single person that charged at us. I suddenly smelled the scent of the man that took Lucy. I followed it and saw him standing behind, smirking at us. I ran back and told everyone he was there. They all nodded and charged at him. He didn't run away.
"What the hell did you do to Lucy?!" I yelled at him as I landed a punch on his face. He didn't move at all.
"Nothing much, just paralyzed her to get her ready" He replied smirking and tried to punch me back, but I was quick enough to dodge it.
"What do you want from her?!" Gray yelled.
"Oh, you don't know who she really is, don't you?" He said and I went back a bit.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"That girl is the daughter of Layle, Queen of the dragon realm. Lucy is the princess, and I need her power!" He said and laughed evilly.
We were all shocked except Gramps. He looked worried and angry.
"What do you intent on doing with her?" Gramps asked the man.
"What do you think?! I am going to use her to rule the dragons and rule the world!" He said smirking evilly.
I felt my blood boil with anger. My temperature rising up fast, my body changing, my skin was changing to dragon scales, my eyes turned red. I felt the need to kill that person and protect Lucy.
"Oh, dragon slayer? This might be a problem, but not a big one" the man said.
"Natsu, I know you need to protect Lucy, but calm down. You might lose control over yourself." Gramps said looking at me but I didn't care. I did control myself at the moment.
I decided to reduce my temperature to show Gramps I am in control. He smiled at me and I smirked back.
"You are going down. I am all fired up!" I yelled as we all charged at the man.
