"I don't know where else to look Natsu. We've searched everywhere." Cana said. Natsu was pacing the Strauss' living room. "Well we obviously haven't looked everywhere, other wise we would've found her by now!" "Wait, Natsu!" Mira said, running up to him. "I just remembered, we have an old warehouse on the borderline on Magnolia!"
Natsu's eyes went wide. He grabbed the map she was holding and scanned it. "Where?" He asked eagerly. She pointed to where the warehouse was. "Ok, then lets go!" Everyone grabbed there stuff and ran as fast as they could to their location.
They got there and Natsu burst through the doors. They searched upstairs and downstairs, nothing. Then, Mira nodded towards a trap door that led to the basement. It was locked from the inside. Mira gave Natsu the "ok" to destroy it.
Natsu took his fist and smashed it into the trap door. Pieces of wood went flying and they went down. And there they were. Lucy tied up, battered and broken. And Lisana, whip in hand. The sight was infuriating to Natsu and Mira. Natsu was pissed that Lucy was that hurt, and Mira was pissed that her baby sister would do this.
"Lisana! What sort of sick pleasure do you get from hurting Lucy like that?!" Mira yelled. Lisana looked at all their faces. They were ready to fight, they didn't care that she was a part of their guild. They just cared about Lucy. Then she looked at Lucy. "Did you do this?!" She said to her. Lucy was whimpering on the floor.
Lisana was about to strike her again when Natsu grabbed her wrist. "Don't even think about touching her. Or I will crush you. It's just you now, you're all alone. One against an entire guild. You should be scared." He started burning her wrist and she started to scream in pain. He let go and walked back to the group as she fell to the ground, cradling her wrist.
Natsu looked at Lucy. His heart was beating fast, not because he was nervous, but because he was so pissed he almost couldn't contain himself. Cana walked up to him and put her hand in his shoulder. "Calm down. We're here now, it's an entire guild against one. We got this."
Natsu took a deep breath and looked at Lisana, he refused to look at Lucy because then he would loose it, and he couldn't afford to do that. His hands balled into fists as they heated up. Lisana got back up on her feet and stared a thing all of them. Juvia walked to the front of the group.
"You have two options: 1:Give Lucy up and get kicked out of the guild. Or 2: Us take her by force and you get kicked out of the guild. If you give her back willingly, the master might spare you. But that's up to you." Lisana stood there, staring at all of them. "Fine." She said, getting on her knees and raising up her hands. "Take the slut."
At that moment, Ezra reached her limit, she requipped to her sword but Gray stopped her. "There's no point. We got Lucy. Let's just go home." Erza angrily put her sword away.
Natsu ran over to Lucy and untied her. "Lucy!" He cradled her in his arms. "I'm so, so sorry, I should've never taken my eyes off of you." Tears started streaming down his face. Lucy put her hand on his cheek and he grabbed it. "Natsu, it's ok, there was no way you could've-" "But there was Lucy! I should've known she was gonna do this."
She brought his face close. "Just be glad I'm here now." His tears fell onto her face. She strained her head up and kissed him sweetly. "Please stop crying Natsu, I hate seeing you like this." "I hate seeing you like this Lucy! You're beaten and battered, and it's all my fault." "Hey." Lucy scolded. "I told you to stop blaming yourself."
"Natsu." Mira said. "We have to go." Natsu turned to Mira. "Ok." He picked up Lucy and held her close to his chest. They walked back to the guild where the master was waiting to speak with Lisana. He was furious.
Lucy fell asleep in Natsu's arms, she was completely exhausted because of nonstop torturing since the night before. She curled up to Natsu's chest and fell asleep. Natsu saw her and smiled a bit. But it quickly turned back into a frown when he saw all of her wounds. She had bled through one of her bandages. He grabbed some fresh ones and switched them out with the old ones.
They finally got back to the guild and Lucy was rushed to Porliusca, who was downstairs waiting. They had Levy contact Porliusca and the master about the situation. Which is why they were both informed that Lucy would most likely be injured.
As they brought Lucy downstairs, Lisana went up to see the master. She knocked on the door and he invited her to come in. She opened the door and walked in. "Master I-" "Shush. You do not get to speak." He sighed.
"If you get jealous over something that you lost the privilege to have and someone else has it now, I get that. But taking pleasure in hurting a comrad. That is unforgivable. Lucy and Natsu fell in love. Love can be a burden or it can be a blessing. It started out as a blessing for them, but you turned it into a burden. Which is a power you should not be allowed to have."
She looked down at her feet. What had she done?
