Ok I am skipping most of the details for the job that Lucy and Laxus went on to save on space because this chapter has the explanation everyone has waited for. YEAH!

The next day Lucy and Laxus went off to the job that had been chosen. They arrived and immediately got to work. Lucy had Laxus stay outside while she took care of everything else.

"I need to let loose for a bit," Lucy said with a smile and Laxus just nodded. All he had to do was catch the man who was supposed to come running outside. Much to his surprise there was only one man who came running and all he could say, after being caught of course, was that a monster had saved him. Lucy followed soon after with a smug grin on her face.

Together, they decided to wait out the rest of day before heading back to Fairy Tail, which would have them arriving about midday. It was a nice, relaxing evening for both and as Lucy drifted off to sleep she came to the conclusion that is was time to tell Laxus everything.

The next morning they boarded the train in silence, which Lucy broke.

"Laxus I have decided that," Lucy paused to take in a deep breath and Laxus faced her. "I am going to tell you what happened."

"You know you don't have to," Laxus said and arched an eyebrow.

"I know," she responded. "Thats part of the reason I want to." Then she started.

It all started about 2 weeks before the kidnapping. I started to notice some inconsistencies in my team but always shrugged them off. It was little things like Natsu and Gray not fighting over everything or with as much spirit, Erxa didn't eat all the cake that she usually did or never noticed when the boys fought, Natsu stopped coming into my house at all hours, and Happy didn't go with us anywhere at all. Then Natsu picked a job, it was just the simple destroy some monster job outside of a town so there was less of a chance of damage. We were all ready and excited to go. Laxus noticed Lucy's eyes were out of focus as if she was reliving it all over again. We left Fairy Tail and 2 hours on the train later we arrived at a small town call Scarville. There was no one in the town and even though we searched there were no monsters around it either. You think we would have been suspicious but no one said anything so I didn't either. Natsu asked me to climb a hill with him so we could look around from higher ground and I went with him, trusting in my partner. Lucy's eyes filled with tears and her hands clenched. I went with him so willingly because I trusted him with everything that I was. We stood at the top of the hill for a time then we heard a screech. We both turned and saw a creature with dull brown wings flying towards us. I wanted to run but Natsu just stood there so I stayed with him. The creature swooped down and scooped me up while Natsu just stood there and watched. Lucy closed her eyes for a few seconds and slowly unclenched her hands. The beginning was the worst after all. After that I was knocked out and when I woke I was in a room that only had a door, a tiny window and a cot. The door was locked and made of a really thick material. I realized though that I still had my keys but when I tried to summon any of my spirits I realized that I couldnt access any of my magic. So I waited because that was the only thing I could do. For two days I waited with no food or water, I only wish that was the end of what happened. There were a total of four people who I saw in my time captured. One brought me food and water but couldnt speak or hear, another conducted magical experiments on me which means he messed with my magic, the third focused on my body conducting experiments to see what I could do how long I could last that sort of stuff, but the last one never did anything to me directly thought he seemed to be the one in charge. I never saw his face but I saw plenty of the others. Lucy didn't even realize that tears were falling. For 6 months they did experiments on me until I thought I was going to die. But I didn't, I lived and survived and destroyed the three people who were in that place with me. The only one left is the fourth person that I never saw. I survived and they didn't.

Lucy looked into Laxus' eyes as tears fell from hers, he just took her into his arms and let her cry on his shoulder till she was done.
