Chapter 7

Lucy's POV

Natsu froze, staring at my face.

"Natsu?" I asked quietly. His face was full of terror.

"Lucy, what are you?" I looked at him, confused. He held up a mirror. I gasped at seeing-

I bolted upright, kind of. I was still tied to the chair. Damon stood in front of me, his back to me.

"So your awake?" He asked.

"Yes…..?" I said, trying to remember when I fell asleep.

"You fell asleep after my worker put you to sleep with his magic so I could get a blood sample, again." He said, once again reading my mind.

"What do you need blood for now?" I asked, remembering when he took my blood the first time for a clue. He turned around. He was holding a vial of my blood.

"Oh, sweet, sweet innocent Lucy." He said, smirking darkly. I suddenly felt a searing pain, and a warm dripping tumbling its way down my stomach. I looked down, crying out in pain. My dress, already torn, was now covered in blood from a wound I couldn't see, but could only feel.

Normal POV

"It's been 2 hours!" Natsu yelled, again. Erza looked at him sharply.

"We know, Natsu. There's nothing we can do except not stop. Now. Secrets. Where would the next clue be?" She snapped, turning to Gray next. He shrugged, again. They seemed to be moving in circles, repeating everything.

"Stumped, are we?" A voice said from behind them.

"Yes." Erza admitted, turning around. This time they saw a face. He had black hair tousled all over his head, dark blue eyes. A dark aura seemed to lurk around him, even from just a hologram.

"Ahh, poor you. Secrets. Well, I guess I'll just give you the next clue. What is Lucy's biggest secret?" He asked. They could hear Lucy complaining behind him, barely. They all froze. Lucy doesn't have secrets, without telling at least one person. They all looked at each other, before running back the way they came. Her mother. She told her mother.
