Natsu's POV

I ran into Fairy Tail as fast as possible. When I opened the doors, everyone was standing around Loki and Master Makarov. Master Makarov look upset like he was trying to hold back his shock.

I sprinted to the middle of the group, running past all of my guild mates, pushing some of the out of the way.

I grabbed Loki by his collar and pulled him as close as I could so he could hear my words nice and clear. Everyone was looking at us now, even if they weren't paying attention to us before.

"Where the hell is Lucy." I whispered the anger dripping of my words. Loki pushed me away from him and backed up a bit.

"Natsu, you need to calm down." He stated, calm and collectively. I looked at him with seething rage yet pushed it aside.

"Lucy sent a distress signal to all of her spirits. Its a way to tell us whether she is in danger or not." He said. "I could tell she didn't mean to send it because she never called on any of us for help."

"Can't you just teleport to where she is!?" I exclaimed slamming my hands on the closest table. The room was dead silent and everyone was still watching us.

Lisanna finally ran through the door, her breathing choppy and hair a mess. Happy coming through the door a second after her.

"It doesn't work like that Natsu." He breathed "She has to allow us to come through. I can come to this world myself, but I can only come to where I want to be, but I don't know where she is. That's why I headed here first." He explained.

My anger and frustration began to climb. Why wasn't anyone looking for her? Why were we all just standing around talking about it? I looked at everyone in the crowed but everyone I looked at put there heads down, avoiding my gaze.

"I'm going to look for her, who's coming?" I yelled across the guild. It took a minute before I got some volunteers. Erza, Gray, Wendy and Levy all stood up. Loki nodded his head as sign that he was going with us. I also looked over to see Levy pulling Gajeel next to her to indicate he was also coming. I smiled and yelled "Alright! Lets go!"

I could see Lisanna watching me as we all head out the doors, but Lucy was my priority right now. I couldn't be caught up with her right now because the person I really wanted to see was in trouble.

Levy, Gajeel and Gray went to the train station to take the route that Lucy would have taken to her job. Me, Erza, Loki and Wendy roamed the streets near the guild to look for any signs of her. We looked down streets and buildings and every crack and cranny in between. The lack of success was taking a toll on the group, Not to mention my frustration that had now climbed to heaven and back.

Before my anger got the best of me I heard a quiet noise that kind or sounded like crying? maybe it was Lucy? No. This didn't sound like Lucy.

I looked over at an ally way I hadn't seen before. The crying clearly was coming from over there.

I quickened my pace to the ally way and looked inside. As I walked closer and closer the noise became slightly louder. The ally way was dark and only laminated from the light in the street. I walked back into it until I turned a corner only to see a tiny boy, crying.

I walked up to the boy and patted him on the back. The boy had black hair and was clearly quite young seeing how small he was.

The little boy never looked up at me, nor did he stopped crying. I was about to say something when I heard something crack behind me.

I whipped around just on time to block an attack. Was he going after the little boy?

A guy with Black hair and vampire like skin stood there. I looked at him. I was confused, why was this guy attacking me? I turned to look at the little boy, but he was no longer there. I quickly returned my gaze back to this guy when he laughed a bit.

"Looking for this?" he gestured making a small pool of dark clouds until it turned into a girl.

"Lucy!, YOU BASTARD!" I looked at her from head to toe, she looked broken and bruised with cuts everywhere. They hurt her. MY Lucy, they hurt her. I couldn't stop the thoughts from coming but that's all I could think about. She had no one to protect her cause I was with Lisanna.

I threw up the firework to tell everyone I found her. The burst of light was so bright, I was hoping maybe Fairy Tail itself could see it too. The guy just sat there and smiled. The thoughts in my head ran ramped so I had no choice but to run ramped too. I ran towards him and burst out as many attacks as I could. The dark ally was now lit up with my flames.

The guy jumped back and dodged my blows, Moving effortlessly to missing the fire. This guy didn't throw one hit but he sure as hell was a challenge.

"Natsu, I don't want to fight you." He yelled, jumping back from my roar of fire. He didn't want to fight me? well now I'm pissed off.

"Well I want to fight you." I screamed running and blasting him with more and more fire. Before my attack could even reach him he dodged it and came up right next to my ear.

"I already did what I wanted to do to her." He whispered. I was taken aback by his words as I turned around, my fist connecting with his face.

He looked surprised, as blood dripped from the corner of his mouth but he quickly composed himself, like he didn't want to admit that I actually hit him.

He seemed to get even more angry because he actually started to use his magic. I couldn't tell what kind of magic it was until I saw metal appear. The circle appeared near his hands before he shot something that looked like daggers towards me.

I tried to use my fire magic against them but to no avail. Just when I thought I was about to be hit, all I heard was the sound of metal on metal. It was Erza who stepped in with her shield to protect me.

All the others started to swarm into the ally way and looked over at Lucy. One by one, everyone started to enter putting up their defenses.

The guy looked defeated and looked at Lucy and then back at me. He gave me a smirk and a slight nod and started to speak. Everyone stood around confused of his reactions and look at me.

"You can never get rid of me. You'll see." He laughed looking back at Lucy.

I sent a burst a fire in his direction but he was already gone. I wasted no time and turned my attention to Lucy. She looked horrible. Her clothes were ripped and she had bruises and cuts everywhere.

I held her back with my hands and I lifted her chest to my own. I could feel everyone's stares but I didn't care. Her head was in the crook of my neck and I just stayed there. I held her cold body against my heat and silently prayed to myself that she was going to be ok.

'She's hurt and its all my fault', I thought.

"I'm so sorry Lucy, you were right we should have picked a different mission. I should have stayed with you." I whispered softy into her hair.
