Getting out of her chains had not been easy and it had taken a toll on her. Lucy stumbled towards the door, realising how much magic she had used up escaping. Well, partially escaping. She was still stuck in the goddamn dark guild that had had the bright idea to take her hostage. Lucy smirked a little, knowing she had escaped her binds without waiting for assistance from her team. 'Damsel in distress my ass' Lucy chuckled to herself. She pushed the door open slightly, cursing when it creaked loudly. She waiting for a moment to see if she'd been caught but when there was no rushing of footsteps she moved to her left slightly, peering out at the corridor leading up to more corridors. Lucy huffed and pushed her fringe out of her face. She was about to push the door open a bit more when she thought about the poor deceased exceed behind her. She couldn't just leave him. So she walked back over to the exceed and picked him up, grimacing slightly at the smell of his rotting corpse.

Lucy crept out of the room she was being held captive in and walked silently through the corridor, stopping when she reached the two places that it led to. On the left there was another corridor that led to around eight rooms and on the right the final corridor led up to two rooms on either side and one large door right at the end. Lucy stood for a second, conflicted about which way to go until she heard voices coming from the large door on her right. Quickly, Lucy scampered to the first door in the left corridor and prayed it would open. It was just Lucy's luck that it didn't. She tried again but when it stayed firmly shut she ran to the next room. Before she could try it she heard the doors in the other corridor open, making Lucy grasp the handle and attempt to open the door. This one thankfully being unlocked. She shut the door behind her and looked at her surroundings, ensuring that she was alone. Quickly, she turned back to the door and pressed her ear against it, listening the voices that were increasing in volume.

"I'm telling you Tsuchi, she freakin' cried when I made her hold that dead cat. I thought she was dying or somethin' when she started making whale sounds but it turns out that was her way of expressing sadness." Terra cackled.

"How pathetic! Over a damn pet? What a cry baby. Maybe we'll have to bring her some more dead kitty cats!" A man's voice that closely resembled Elfman's deep voice yet with less emotion boomed, making Lucy jump back from the door before quickly resuming her position. She grimaced and held her tongue, wanting to yell at the two that exceeds are not pets. The two continued their conversation about the girl that was hidden listening to them as they past the room she was in and walked to the end of the hall. They opened a door and once it shut, they're voice became too quiet for Lucy to hear.

She turned back around, examining the room more closely noting that it seemed to be a bedroom although it looked unlived in. In fact, it resembled a hospital room. There was no colour in the room, only white and beech wood. There were no posters or decorative pillows, no photos or even a book. Lucy was bothered about this for a brief moment until she spotted a window at the far side of the room. Lucy rushed over to it and noted how high she seemed to be. The room was four floors high and although it wasn't extremely high, it was high enough for Lucy to break something. She weighed out the pros and cons before deciding that she'd ultimately rather break a few bones than be stuck in this building with a load of people who wanted to do god knows what to her. Grasped hold of the windows handle and open the window as wide as it would go. Just as she was about to climb onto the windowsill, something grabbed her hair and yanked her back. The exceed was flung from her grasp and out of the window and although Lucy tried to push herself towards him whatever ever had grabbed her hair didn't let up. Tears flowed down Lucy's face as she was pulled further away from the window, her escape being thwarted. She reached behind her to grab hold of whomever or whatever had hold of her when she found nothing there. As sudden as the pulling of her hair had begun, it stopped. Lucy span on her heel to see what had grabbed her when she saw exactly what she had felt. Nothing. That was until the door was thrust open and a young boy with dark purple hair and green eyes rushed into the room and shut the door carefully behind him. He turned to Lucy and grinned, although it was anything but reassuring.

"Well, I see you're not exactly co-operative" he said, his voice sending a shiver down Lucy's back.

"What do you mean co-operative? Nothing's been asked of me yet you little brat." Lucy hissed, getting frustrated. "And did you do that just now? To my hair I mean?"

"Of course I did. Did you think it was a ghost you bimbo" the boy chucked, giving her a look that made Lucy take a step back towards the window in fear. When she took another step backwards, her foot didn't touch the floor. Quickly averting her gaze from the creepy boy she looked her feet and found herself floating. She squecked when she was then jerked backwards and out of the window until she was hovering above the rather large drop that Lucy had been about to willingly fling herself down. Her eyes flicked between the ground far below where the dead exceed lay and the boy who was now standing at the window, still smirking at her. Just as she was about to ask what he was doing, he spoke first.

"Boo" and then Lucy dropped. A scream ripped it's way out of her throat as she fell, closing her eyes and awaiting the moment her body hit the ground. Until she once again was held in mid air. She stopped screaming and glanced behind her, seeing that her hair was touching the ground. Before she could be thankful to be alive she was jerked back up to the window and into the room. When Lucy saw he look on the boys face realised that she was wrong. She wasn't thankful, in fact her falling to her death could have possibly been the best case scenario. The smile dropped off the boys face when running footsteps could be heard along with frantic voices.

"I guess my time with you is over. But first, a parting gift." he said and just as the bedroom door was burst open, he threw a dagger at Lucy and it embedded itself in the middle of her stomach. Members of the dark guild rushed into the room, pulling the boy away from Lucy and grabbing hold of the injured girl. Terra stood in front of her, her mouth turned down in a snarl.

"You stupid little bitch." she said before grabbing the dagger and twisting it, thrusting it further into Lucy's body. Lucy screamed again before her vision faded to black.
