Chapter 15

"Gajeel wrap your metal around there legs up to their chest." Laxus snarled. Gajeel laughed as he wrapped the two up in his metal. Laxus then used his dragon lightning roar on the two, with the metal wrapped around them it made the lightning twice as painful.

"Gray, I think they need a little frost bite." Laxus smirked. Gray smirked and turned the two into human icicles, with just their heads unfrozen.

"Laxus, get Lucy we can finish dealing with these two." Erza said. He nodded and ran over to Lucy.

"Lucy, can you hear me? Lucy, wake up please." Laxus said. He slowly lowered her down, and then broke the cuffs around her wrist. He looked her over and noticed all the cuts, and bruised. When he seen her legs, he knew they were broke. He could see her chest rise and fall, giving him a small comfort. He wrapped his coat around her and careful picked her up.

He grinned watching the others torture Alatar and Alastair. After Gray froze them, Natsu used his flames and melted the ice giving them both quit a few second degree burns. Erik walked up to them and blew poison into their mouths, it wouldn't kill them, but it will make their insides feel like it's on fire. Erza equiped her hammer, and smashed one leg on each of them. Rogue used his shadow attack to wrap around their broken legs, and squeeze. Sting sent out his light attacks adding to the burns Natsu gave them. Midnight put them each in their worst nightmares. They all enjoyed hearing the two scream for what they did to Lucy. They wanted to keep torturing them, but none of them wanted to be arrested.

Everyone suddenly looked towards Laxus, when they heard Lucy groan. "La-Laxus?"

"Yeah, I'm here Blondie, you're safe now." Lucy started to cry, happy to finally go home and be with her family. "I'm going to teleport back to the guild with Blondie, she needs Wendy. Will you guys call the rune knights to pick these two up."

"Rogue and I will stay, you all head back to Fairy Tail, you should all be there for Lucy. We will come visit in a couple days to see how she is doing." Sting said. Everyone nodded and left to head back to Magnolia.

-At Fairy Tail-

Everyone at the guild felt static pressure building, and then a bolt of lightning struck in the middle of the guild to reveal Laxus holding Lucy. Everyone gasped when they seen the shape she was in.

"Wendy come do your thing." Laxus said as he walked into the infirmary with Lucy. He gently laid her down on the bed. Wendy came in and ran her hands over to access the damage and see where to start. She started at her legs, healing the bones most of the way. She then healed all the cuts on her stomach, chest and back.

"Thankfully most of the wounds were still fresh, and she won't have scares. She will have pain in her legs from time to time though. I couldn't heal them all the way or it would make the bones prone to breaking easier." Wendy said.

"How long will she need to stay off her feet?"

"I say at least a month. Then she will need to go through a couple weeks of physical therapy to help with the stiffness in her joints." Laxus nodded, and pulled up a chair next to the bed, and took Lucy's hand. Wendy left, stating she would come by later to check on her. After she left, Makarov came in.

"How is she, my boy?" He asked quietly.

"She will be okay. Wendy healed all her cuts, but couldn't completely heal her broken legs. She said it would make them weaker and they would break easier. Could you have Mira come up, I would like her to wash Lucy and help put her in some clothes." Before Makarov could leave to get Mira, Virgo appeared.

"I will clean my Princess up, I already have some of her clothing with me." Laxus nodded and stood outside the infirmary while Virgo cleaned up Lucy. Virgo opened the door when she was done to let Laxus know he could come back in.

"Thank you Virgo, for cleaning her up." Laxus said. Virgo bowed an disappeared to the spirit world. You are never leaving my side again. When you are better, I want us to become mates. I hope you will be ready then too.

There was a knock on the door a couple hours later. Laxus woke up, as the door was opened to reveal team Natsu. They walked in quietly to check on Lucy.

"How is she Laxus?" Erza asked.

"She will be okay. She has to be on bed rest for a month, then will need a couple weeks of physical therapy."

"Let us know when she wakes up." Erza said and ushered Natsu and Gray out. After they left, he pushed a bed up against Lucy's and laid down next to her. He slowly fell asleep, exhaustion finally catching up after searching for her.

-Next Day-

Laxus woke up to the feeling of something touching him, slowly tracing the scar under his eye. When he opened his eyes he was meet with a smiling Lucy.

"Lucy, are you okay? Can I get you anything?" He asked.

"I'm okay, legs are sore. Thank you for finding me Laxus. What happened with Alatar and Alastair?"

He grinned, "We roughed them up some, and then the rune knights came to arrest them. I should go get Wendy, she will want to check you over."

"Don't go just yet, please." Lucy said. Laxus nodded, and laid back down next to her. She tried to move closer, but it hurt to move. He noticed and moved closer to Lucy wrapping his arm around her waist. She slowly leaned up and kissed him. They pulled away to catch their breaths, after a couple minutes Laxus growled and dove back in to give her another kiss, he ran his tongue along her lower lip asking for entrance. She tangled her tongue with his, he quickly dominated the kiss. He smirked when he seen the small blush on her face, after they pulled away to catch their breath.

"I need to go get Wendy. Are you hungry?"

"Some waffles with strawberries, if it's not too much trouble."

"No trouble at all baby. I'll be back with some food, I will send Wendy in while I'm waiting for the food." Lucy smiled at Laxus as he walked out. Wendy walked in a couple minutes later.

"How are you feeling Lucy?"

"Legs are sore, but feel okay other wise."

"I couldn't completely heal the breaks, or it would have weakened your bones. You will need to stay on bed rest for a month. Then we will do a couple weeks of physical therapy to help the stiff joints."

Lucy sighed, and nodded. She started to panic, if I can't go on missions for more than a month, how will I pay my rent? I can't for help, that would be to much to owe someone.

"Lucy! Lucy-nee! You okay?" Wendy asked her worriedly. When she got no reply, she ran to the door way and yelled for Laxus. It took him two seconds to get up to the infirmary.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know. I explained to Lucy about bed rest for the next four weeks, and then a couple weeks of physical therapy."

"Lucy. Blondie, what's wrong?" When he got no reply, he put his hand on her shoulder and gave her a small shake. Lucy blinked and looked at Laxus.

"Sorry, I got lost in thought."

"What had you so deep in thought?"

"With me not being able to do missions, how will I pay my rent? It's due soon, but I can't ask for a loan to pay it, I refuse to be indebt to someone."

"Lucy, would you want to move in with me? You are my mate. We don't have to share a room right a way if you don't want."

"You would really be okay with me living with you?"

"Of course." He said with a smirk. Lucy smiled and nodded saying she would move in with him. "I will be back, our food should be ready. You up for some company? Some people that would like to see you."

"Yeah, I'm up for some company." Laxus nodded as he got up to go get their food, and let everyone know she was ready for some company.

"Hey Bright Eyes, you look like you are doing a little better." Erik said as he walked in.

"I'm okay other than having to be on bed rest for the next four weeks."

"We made them pay for what they did to you, even thought it wasn't enough in my opinion." He snarled. Laxus walked in with their food. "I'll visit again later, eat and get some more rest."

"Yes big brother." Lucy said and giggled at the half glare Erik sent her way. "Thank you Laxus." She smiled at him and started to eat her food. Half way through eating team Natsu came in to see her.

"Hey Luce, how are you feeling?" Natsu asked.

"I'm okay, legs still hurt some. I'm stuck in bed the next four weeks."

"I'm glad you are okay, little sister." Gray said. Lucy smiled at him and gave him a hug.

"When you are better, we will have a girls day to celebrate your recovery." Erza said.

"That sounds good Erza." Lucy yawned, and was trying to stay awake to talk with her friends.

"Baby, get some sleep. You can visit more later." Laxus said. Lucy nodded and laid down in the bed, falling asleep instantly. Laxus covered her up, and followed team Natsu out the door.

-At the Magic Council-

"Alatar, you are charged with the kidnapping an torturing of Lucy Heartfilia. Along with the other charges against you, you will spend the rest of your days in prison. The bracelet we just put on you, cancels your magic, and it cannot come off. Take him away.

Alastair, you are charged with hiring Alatar to kidnap and torture Lucy Heartfilia. You are not allowed to go anywhere near Miss Heartfilia, if you do you will be thrown in jail. We have closed your business, and taken away your title. You are no longer part of the noble community. Do not mess up this chance, of being free. We will be watching you, as you are on probation for the next two years." Lucy Heartfilia, this is your fault, and I will find away around this to get my revenge on you and Fairy Tail.
