(Lucy's pov)

'I don't know why but I have a bad feeling in my gut'

I swayed from side to side as I dodged all of Lightning's attacks. They were really easy to dodge but for some odd reason I kept feeling the weird feeling in my gut.

'Something big is coming! I can feel it!'

"You should probably pay more attention to this fight little lady!", Lightning yelled as he teleported in front of me in an instant shattering my thoughts.

'Damn! I forgot he could do that!'

"LIGHTNING SLICE!"

His glowing yellow arm sliced my stomach, leaving a gigantic red cut on my abdomin.

'Tsk! I was careless!'

The pain and shock was too much to handle. My legs shortly gave up after being attacked.

"Hehe, I thought you were smarter than that"

"Don't be so cocky you just got me off guard, that's all"

"Oh, well in that case I'd better finish you before you regain your composure!"

"No, that's enough!", a new voice yelled from behind me joining in on our conversation.

'Who's that?!'

I turned around and witnessed a tall blonde haired man wearing a long white lab coat, walking towards us.

'Who's this guy?'

"M-Master?!", Lightning yelled in a frightened tone as he got on his knees and bowed in front of the blonde haired man.

"You sicken me Lightning, I mean come on! You couldn't have taken care of this young little girl!"

"I'm s-sorry M-Master! Please forgive me!"

"Tsk! How can I forgive you! You're pathetic!", he kicked him in the stomach making him fall to the ground.

"I-I'm so-

"SHUT UP!", this time he kicked him with so much force that his body went flying off into some rocks.

"I don't have time to hear your pathetic apology! I need to finish the mission that you guys couldn't complete!"

"And what would that mission be?", I asked as I stood up and stared him in the eyes.

"Oh, why do you want to know?", he smirked an ugly smirk as he walked closer to me.

"So I can stop it and prevent you from accomplishing it!"

"How are you going to stop it, if you're a part of it?"

"What are you-

My body started to slowly float upwards interrupting me from my retaliation.

'What's going on?! Why am I floating?!'

"HAHA, the look on your face is priceless!"

"What are you doing?! Let me go!"

"No I need you! Now be a good little girl this'll only take a second!"

Before I could do anything my body was encased in a gigantic, fat redbubble. And I was still floating but this time I was floating inside the bubble.

"Perfect! Now we can begin!"

"What do you me-

The blonde haired man touched the outside of the bubble as murmured some weird words under his breath.

Once he was done murmuring, the man and I were teleported somewhere off into the distance.

I could only hope that it wasn't somewhere dangerous.

…

(Natsu's pov)

"Kill me"

"W-What?!"

"You heard me Natsu"

"N-No I didn't"

I didn't really understand how I was feeling on the inside. My heart felt as if it had stopped.

'No…...No….NO!'

"Tsk! Natsu we don't have time for this! You have to end me now! Before he arrives!"

"H-He?"

"I think he's talking about me", a new voice said.

"Dammit! We're too late! Natsu run!"

"Run? W-What are you talking about?"

"Just do it!"

That wouldn't be smart choice Natsu", a blonde man appeared out of the air in front of me. His dark blue eyes were filled with so much hatred and evil, but he was smiling.

"W-Who are you?!"

He chuckled as he made his way to my Dad.

"Answer me!"

"Natsu! Just forget it run!"

"Yeah Natsu run away hurry", the blonde haired man said in a mocking tone as his smile grew wider.

'What should I do? I'm so confused!'

"But I doubt you would want to leave the two most dearest people to you, alone and defenseless"

"W-What a-are you t-talking about?"

He snapped his thumb and index finger making a gigantic redbubble come out of thin air, just like how he did.

'What's that?!'

"I still don't understand what you mean?!"

"Hehe, look inside the bubble kid"

'Look inside of i-

At that moment my heart and my brain both stopped working. My whole body felt ice cold as I kept on staring at the bubble.

"L-L-LUCY?!"

"What did you do to her?!"

"Chill out I haven't done anything to her…...yet", his smile grew even colder by the second.

"If YOU EVEN LAY A FINGER ON YOU I'LL KILL YOU!"

The fire in me erupted outside covering my whole body into a ferocious flaming killing machine.

I felt like I could destroy the whole planet in one punch, that's how much power and rage I had inside of me.

"You kill me?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

His laugh was fuel to my fire. It made the fire around me burn hotter and hotter.

"Natsu!"

Lucy's sweet voice brought me back into the powerless cold hell that I was currently in.

I stared into her brown orbs waiting for he to complete whatever she was going to say, hoping that it was something hopeful.

"Natsu! You have to get out of here! He's after you!"

"B-But Lucy! I-

"Forget about me! Your life is on the line!"

I clenched my teeth as a tear rolled down my eye.

"SO IS YOURS!"

I could hear her breath get caught in her throat.

"Are you guys done yet? I'm getting a little impatient here", the Man said casually making me regain the hatred I had just a second ago.

"SHUT UP!"

"Oh? And what if I don't want to?"

"I'll burn you to a crisp!"

"You actually think that your fire powers are going to hurt me?!"

"I'll make them hurt you!"

"Oh Natsu, Natsu, Natsu, you're so clueless"

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"I created every one of you! I know everything about you all!"

'What?! That can't be true?!'

I took a second look at him and this time I realized who he was.

'No way! H-He's the man who made my Dad suffer!'

"Tsk! I don't care if you gave me these freakish powers, I'm still going to kill you with them!"

"No Natsu! You don't know what you're up against!", my Dad yelled out as he walked slowly over towards us.

"Yes, you should a good little boy and listen to your father"

"I'm not going to run away! I have to save you both!"

"Please Natsu just go!", Lucy and my Dad both pleaded.

"STOP IT! I'm going to make sure this guy pays for what he has done!"

"Yes! Make me pay! Come on Natsu let's get this show started!"

"Fine by me!"

"But first!"

He pulled out a golden magnum from his coat pocket and aimed it to my Dad's forehead.

"No don't!"

He gave me a sickening smile and pulled the trigger.

CLACK!

The bullet went straight through his brain leaving him motionless.

'N-No! There's no way?...I-It can't be…..Dad?'

"...Dad?"

Warm tears streamed down my cold cheeks as I stared at my motionless Dad. My legs then started running on their own in his direction.

'He can't be…..he'll live….he's not'

The blonde man stood in front of me blocking my path.

"Get out of MY WAY!", I swung at him with all of my might but he dodged it quickly and smirked.

"That can wait, but right now you have an enemy right in front of you, shouldn't that be your main objective?"

"You? YOU? I'LL RIP YOU TO SHREDS!"

I charged at him as I ignited my whole body on fire. The rocks beneath me melted as I made my way closer to him.

But instead of entering a battle stance he just stood there looking in my eyes.

'Why isn't he doing anything?! Is this some sort of trick?!'

"TAKE THIS YOU-

"Hellish gaze!"

His dark blue eyes glowed as he continued to stare at my eyes. Just the stare of his eyes made my body stop entirely. It felt like I was frozen in time.

'What is this?! Why can't I move?!'

"This is my power! Now experience the joy of hell!"

The world around me was replaced by a dark empty red world. The sky and floor was red, that was the only color visible here. The color of blood.

"Where am I?"
