Hello everyone! I'm back with a new chapter!

I had to split up this chapter since I wanted to give you something before the end of the week!
Didn't have the time I hoped for, so I hope you will like this part of the chapter, and I will upload the next part as soon as I can!


Lucy hanged out with Natsu almost the whole week. It was only for a few hours that Natsu left to travel away. According to him, it was to show his colleagues that he is still alive.

Apparently he doesn't want them to come and visit him, since Lucy knows too much. But he looked her deep into her eyes when he told her that he didn't regret telling her the truth. She blushed when he said that but she promised Natsu not to tell anyone about it. There is no way that she will betray his trust to her.

It is now Friday evening and the day before did they made up planes for tonight. They are going to have a movie night. Well, they have been watching a lot of movies this week, since Lucy was free from her work and Natsu didn't had a case to work with so what's better then movie nights?

But tonight they are going to have a movie marathon. Lucy will choose the first move and then Natsu the second and so on...

Lucy is now standing outside Natsu's apartment. And was just going to knock when she heard voices coming from inside his apartment. Her first thought was that he maybe had forgot their planes, but she changed that though quickly. What if there is someone in there again, trying to kill him?

She chose to knock on the door, knowing that if he doesn't open it means that he is in danger.

The voices inside fell silent and soon Natsu stood in the doorway.

"Ah, Lucy" he said and sounded not too happy to see her. She heard a woman talking in the background and then she saw a red-haired beauty coming from behind Natsu. By Natsu's expression this is one of his colleagues. She is standing face to face with an agent, an agent that can easily kill her. Lucy decided to play the dumb blonde if the red-haired beauty decided to ask questions.

The woman asked Natsu who she is and looked very thoroughly at her.

"Ah, Erza this is Lucy. My neighbor." he said but kept his eyes on Lucy. "Sorry Lucy, change of plans. I have to jump in and work tonight so we will have to take that movie night another time." She smiled at him and nodded and was just going to turn around and leave when the woman, Erza, started to talk.

"So, Lucy. It was your name, right?" she crossed her arms over her chest and continued. "How do you know Natsu?"

Natsu makes a grimace, causing Lucy to smile.

"As Natsu said, we are neighbors. We became friends, by chance actually. I work the late shift at the hospital so I usually come home at two o'clock. Natsu come home around the same time so we usually meet in the elevator. It was so we met and so we started talking to each other. There is not many in this building that is working late so I guess you talk to the one who is. And it ended with that we became friends. I guess you are a colleague of Natsu. It's nice to meet you." she said and smiled at her. Then she saw two men appear behind Erza. One with black hair and the other with blue. "Well, I should go now. Don't want to interfere if you need to work. Goodbye." She said and turned to look at Natsu. "Goodbye Natsu."

She turned around and went back to her own apartment. She heard the voices became higher inside of Natsu's apartment and the little she could make out of it was that they were not happy since Natsu told his real name to a stranger. She gets an uncomfortable feeling in her stomach, but she closed her door and sat down and watched TV.

Her TV watching was not long lasted, one second everything was calm, and in the next she heard a loud crash. She screamed in sheer panic when she saw her front door on the floor and the three agents in her apartment with an upset Natsu behind them.

"God dammit Erza! You could just open the door like an ordinary person! You didn't fucking need to kick it down!" shouted Natsu at her.

Lucy was covering her face with her hands and peeked between her fingers. "What is happening?" She said once she had taken down her hands. "You scared the shit out of me! Ahh! My door! The landlord will kill me!" she cried out and looked up at the agents.

"What the hell is wrong with you!? Who kicks down someone else door just like that! Do you even know how much it cost!" she said, rattled up a lot of unnecessary information.

They ignored her question.

"Who are you?" asked Erza with a cold look.

"I have already told you! Natsu what's going on?" responded Lucy and turned to look at Natsu with a confused look on her face.

He looked down at the ground and sighed. When he looked up again she saw some sort of emotion in his eyes that she couldn't read.

"Natsu? She asked carefully, "what's wrong?"

"I'm sorry Lucy, they know." he said and looked away from her ashamed.

"Know what? I don't understand Natsu." She responded even more confused.

"They know that you know that I'm an agent!" screamed he out angry. She flinched at his words, but the look on his face told her what she needed to know. He is not angry at her, he is angry at himself. But if they know, what will happen to her? Will they kill her?

She had a lump in her throat, but she needed to know so she asked it anyway. "Are they here to kill me?"

Natsu looked panicked at her. "No!" shouted he at her, "are you hearing me Lucy, no one will kill you!"

Erza ignored them again.

"Who are you?" she asked again, this time very decided.

"Lucy. I have already told you that!"

"No! What's your name!" shouted Erza angrily at her. "Tell us your name!"

"My name is Lucy!" yelled Lucy back, now with tears that flowed.

"Natsu what's her name!?" demanded Erza as she turned to face him instead.

"Her name is Lucy, Erza. She is telling you the truth."

"No! What's her last name!?"

Natsu looked at her and then scratched the back of his head as he thought. "Uhm… I don't know. I never asked." he turned and looked at Lucy, who had a look of pure horror.

Erza turned to look at Lucy again and then she asked her again.

"What's your name!?"

"Lucy!" shouted she out and shook her head

Erza looked toward the man with black hair and nodded at him. He picked up his gun and hold it against her temple.

"Tell me what your name is!" she said and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Erza! This is excessive! Gray! Put the damn gun down for God's sake! You can hurt her!" screamed Natsu and was a step away from running against them when the blue-haired man grabbed him and kept him away.

"Jellal! Let me go, dammit! Gray put the gun down now! Lucy tell them what they want to know! He screamed out in sheer panic. He can't lose her!

Lucy just stood there and cried. "I don't want to go back there." whispered she and cried bigger by every word she said.

"You are not going anywhere Lucy, I promise! Please, I don't want you to get hurt." whispered Natsu back at her.

Gray loaded his gun and Lucy cried rivers now. "I really don't want to go back there again. He only hurts me."

"Lucy! Look at me!" she looked up at him and when he had eye contact with her, he continued, "I promise that I will protect you, but I can only do that if you tell them what they want to know."

She nodded slightly and tried to wipe away her tears. "My name is Lucy, Lucy Heartfilia." She whispered out. It was not the name she used in public anymore, but it is still her name.

"You mean you are Jude Heartfilia's daughter?" asked Erza surprised.

Lucy flinched. She doesn't want to hear his name!

"Jellal! Let me go! Said Natsu and struggled to get out of his grip. "I don't want to hurt you." warned he.

Jellal let go of him and Natsu ran to Lucy. He hit away Gray's hand and gave him a look that was easy for the black-haired man to understand. "you'll pay for this later".

Lucy couldn't keep her own weight any longer and fell towards the ground. Natsu managed to grab her before she hurt herself and sat down on the ground with her, where Lucy now is crying hysterically.

Natsu, still with Lucy in his arms, turned around and looked at the three agents. "Are you happy now!? You broke her completely!" screamed he angrily at them.

The agents have never seen Natsu behave like that, it really surprised them but Erza is not going to let him win this. He has done wrong and she must protect Fairy Tail.

"She is going with us to the base for further questioning." She said and turned around and walked out from the apartment. Gray and Jellal walked towards Lucy and Natsu to take her, but Natsu struck away their hands.

"You are not going to touch her! If she is going to the base, then I'm going to be there! She hasn't done anything wrong. This is my fault." He said and looked them both hard in the eyes. They said nothing, instead they waited for him to take her out.

"I'm sorry, Lucy. But you have to come with us to the base. I promise they won't hurt you."

He offered his hand and she took it. She is still shaking, but her tears have stopped. It pains him to see her like this and to know that it's his fault. Had he never implicated her into this whole mess, would this never happened.

When they stood outside, next to the car, took Gray up a sack and pulled it over her head. She jerked in fear but bit her tongue, so that she wouldn't make noises. Natsu holds her hand and she heard him talk to the man. She couldn't make out what they said, but she guesses that Natsu doesn't like how they treat her.

The journey was not long and when the car stopped helped Natsu her out. She heard a door open. And then they started to walk again. Natsu kept her close and she could hear voices around them whispered. She heard "have Natsu caught a criminal" more times that she wanted to count and she really wanted to scream at them that 'no she is not a criminal! She is a doctor!

But before she got the chance to say anything, she was taking from Natsu's safety and got thrown into a room where they removed the sack from her head. She tried to save her disaster to hair, but without avail.

-'

Erza is standing and looking at the blonde woman that is walking around in the room. After a few minutes she turned around and if there hadn't been a glass wall between them she would have been standing face to face with her.

"I know that you all are in there! Let me out from here! I want to go home."

Erza almost started to laugh at her desperate attempt. She knows that everyone is watching her from behind and is waiting for orders, but she want to see if the blonde woman will break.

She doesn't even have to look back to know that Natsu is frustrated, that he goes back and forth inside the room. She wonders what Natsu sees in the woman, that cause him to break the most important rule they have.

"Hello! Someone! I'll tell you what you want to know, it's not like I have anything more to lie about anyway! I just want to go home, you actually ruined my Friday evening!"

She hears Natsu in the background, he's trying not to laugh.

After a few more minutes, she sent in Gray to interrogate her. Lucy doesn't seem to like the thought and crossed her arms and looked past him and toward them.

"If you think that I'm going to talk to him, then you are stupid. There is no way that I will talk to a man that pointed a gun to my head! So either you let Natsu come in here or you send Mr Pointing A Gun out and come in here yourself Ms Kicking Down Doors, it's your choice."

Now couldn't Natsu longer keep himself from laughing. She turned and looked at him and he stopped laughing immediately. But he stood up for himself and began to speak.

"Send me in. She trusts me and I know she hasn't done anything wrong." He was on his way out from the room but Erza stopped him.

"No. You stay here. You broke the rules and this is the result of that."

"I tried to protect her!"

Erza shook her head but chose to ignore him. Instead she told Gray to come back.

"Are you going to take it?" Gray asked when he entered the room. She nodded at him, "she doesn't know what she is getting herself into." He added and turned around and looked at Natsu. "You really messed up this time Natsu. She can work for any terrorist group out there and you are giving her all the information she wants."

Natsu snapped at him. "Or she is an ordinary person with an ordinary job! All people are not bad people! There are actually good ones out there and Lucy is one of them! Lucy's job is to help people, not hurt them!" he shouted angrily at him.

Gray crossed his arms and looked angry at him. "Or she just says that to you because you are stupid!"

Natsu was a step from hitting him when Erza stepped between them. "It's enough! Both of you!" said Erza firmly. "Gray our job is to find out who she is. Natsu is right, not everyone out there is bad people. You need to learn to see that."

Natsu stuck out his tongue at him.

"And you Natsu," she said and turned to him instead "you broke the rules, so for your own good I hope you are right."

Natsu crossed his arms, "I know I'm right. Or she could have killed me many times already."

Erza sighed and turned away from the two men and instead she was facing a short woman with blue hair and hazel eyes. "Levy. I want you to sit in here and listen. Search about everything she says. If you find out anything let me know. Okay?"

Levy nodded at her took up her computer and made herself ready.

"Erza. I would like to come with you." said a woman with long bright hair. Her name is Mirajane.

Erza nodded at her.

"You two." she said and turned to Gray and Natsu. "If you two are going to be in here, you have to behave. If I hear from Levy that you two fought, will I make sure that things not are going to be good for either of you. Is that clear?"

They nodded at her.

"Good." she said and smiled at them, which only made them more afraid. Then she turned to Mira, "ready to interrogate?"

Mira nodded at her and they left the room together.

-'

"Ah, finally! I want to get this over with so that I can go home again. I have better things to do than spend my night here." Said Lucy and looked up at the two women that entered the room. "Since you know my name, it would be easier if I know who I'm talking to."

"My name is Mirajane, but call me Mira. I'm here to see if you are telling me the truth or not." said Mira and smiled at her, "it's nothing personal."

"I understand that." responded Lucy and sighed. "and your name was Erza, wasn't?"

"That's correct." Said Erza and picked up a folder with information. "I like to think that you are not a bad person, but you know too much so I must ask you some questions."

"What do you want to know? My life story?" responded Lucy and crossed her arms.

"It would help, yes. You said it yourself you have nothing to hide."

"No, I have nothing to hide. It's just my life is not a funny story, so I'm not going to judge you if you fall asleep."

They didn't say anything instead they waited.

Lucy sighed, "have you agents no sense of humor?"

She shook her head but started to speak. "Okay, I was born the 1 June 770. I guess people would have said that my life was perfect, I mean I had the world's best mother." She said and smiled a sad smile.

"But when I turned seven, my mother became ill and passed away." She sighed. "My father, as you know is a businessman, he started to drink and suddenly he began with illegal business. I understood that what he did was illegal but I also knew that I wouldn't be able to stop him."

"When I turned teen, he became violent. He hit me because I looked too much like my mother and sometimes it was because I was not born a boy." She shook her head. "you see businessmen want to have sons who can take over their business after them."

"I guess you can say that I'm living thanks to my teachers, Virgo and Aries. They really were my rescue. They made a promise to my mother before her death and that was to teach me whatever I wanted. With my mother dead, I wanted to be a doctor. I wanted to help people, help them so that they would never have to go through what I did." she said, rubbing her left wrist.

"When I was seventeen, decided my father to marry off me. He had just received a new contact and both of their business would be better if they cooperated. But none of them trusted the other good enough so that's why I was going to marry his son." She shook her head, as it would help her to forget everything that happened. "I needed to give birth to two sons. My firstborn was going to inherit my father's business and my second born was going to take over after his father. This was something that I was not interested in, so with the help of Virgo and Aries I ran away."

Erza wrote down something in a block she had in front of her. "Continue."

Lucy sighted. "From seventeen to twenty did I liv on the run. I couldn't stay in the same place more than a year so I studied at different schools so that he wasn't going to find me. I'm now twenty-five and have lived here in Magnolia for five years. I don't know if he still is looking for me but I needed to find a place to stay at and Magnolia is a wonderful place. I'm now working at the Magnolia Hospital and have done that for three years. I'm the first one in my age that is so high up in the hospital, but I guess that's because of that I have studied for much longer than others."

"There is no Lucy Heartfilia at Magnolia's hospital." Said Erza and looked in her folder.

"It is because I don't go by that name anymore. I may be blonde, but I'm not stupid." she responded and crossed her arms.

"Okay, what name goes you by then?"

"I chose a common surname here in Magnolia, so I'm calling myself Lucy Ashley."

They heard a slight knock on the door and in stepped Levy. "Erza I'm sorry to disturb you, but you asked me to inform you if I found something." Erza stood up and walked toward the door. Levy whispered something to her, Erza nodded and Levy walked out of the room again.

"It seems you were telling us the truth after all."
