Last Time on 'Bitten':

"Listen, my name is Zeref...And don't go away, just yet, give me some chance to explain!"

.."I won't hurt you, and I would never. But I did, exactly three hours ago. And I wanted to be forgiven by thee, because, I turned you into something you will never like. But do not worry, I would provide you care and concern for a year"

Chapter 2 - Discovery

Lucy gasped, her two hands covering her mouth. As Zeref walked towards her, she felt a twang in her stomach, that she's really hungry. And like she wanted to pounce on something right now and gobble it up at once. Before Zeref could take another step, Lucy suffered in hunger. She's hungry and extremely thirsty at the same time...Thirsty...Thirsty for...Blood.

Her fangs stretched out of her gums and she licked them out of realization. She felt them sharp and she almost shrieked. Lucy never wanted to have fangs like Natsu but hers were sharper. She discovered something that she read from the books. Lucy tilted her head to face Zeref with a curious look. He nodded at her understandingly.

"Yes, you...are...a...vampire, Lucy" Zeref stated.

Lucy gasped even louder than before. She's scared, really scared, and it's obvious to the emotion she showed. Zeref tried his best to be a friend, and calmed her down. His eyes glowed red brightly, telling Lucy to calm down. Relax. He filled her mind with calmness. She obediently followed and stayed still silently.

Zeref sighed in relief. "That's one of my powers Lucy. I can calm down other vampires by telling them to with my mind. I will let you discover your powers soon, Luce. Right now, I have to explain everything, if you promise to listen and never run away. As I said before, you don't have to worry, I won't hurt you, I promise" he said, raising his right hand with no emotion.

Lucy looked at him and nodded. Before she could reply to him, she hugged stomach and crouched on the floor. She can't take it anymore, she had to drink some blood. And Lucy never tasted blood before, and probably she would never like it. Zeref ruffled her hair. "You're hungry. Why not go hunt some food, Luce?" he invited her.

She hesitated. "I don't want to kill any people, Zeref! I don't want to kill my friends!" Lucy whined painfully, her stomach still aching with hunger. Zeref shook his head, he never meant that she need to kill someone. Still, he was surprised how she knew what food she wanted. And she needed to adjust to the new food chain.

"I understand. You could just hunt some normal animals in this island if you want, I'll wait here. You need to quench your thirst or else you'll go overboard and kill thousands of people ruthlessly" Zeref warned pointing outside the cave. "GO hunt now, before you suck the life out of me, too!"

Lucy laughed and nodded. She went outside, surprisingly, in an incredible speed. Using her new senses, she tried looking for a large meal to fulfill her hunger. Like a cheetah she ran through the meadows of Tenrou and found herself a perfect prey. A grazing doe just meters away attracted her hearing. She could hear its pulse and the tension, its blood flowing through its veins. Lucy never felt this way before.

She carefully crept in the grass, hiding herself like a predator would. Lucy pounced at the doe swiftly and pinned it down. The doe kicked its legs and moaned in struggling to get free. Before it could even kick Lucy in the gut, she already bit the doe in the neck and drank its blood. The doe's squirmy movement faded and soon it stopped fully. Lucy drained the blood from it in seconds!

Lucy stopped, with tears in her eyes. She pulled away and lurched backwards. She wiped her bloody mouth and licked her lips. She smiled uneasily. "That hit the spot.." she said suddenly, not even wanting to say it out very loud. She sighed and looked up, the sun would rise any second! She has to return to a shadowed place.

Quickly she dashed back in the cave with unbelievable speed, only to find Zeref sleeping. Once she growled a little, Zeref jumped up and rubbed his eyes. He looked outside, the sun had rose. He grinned easily showing no fear to the sunlight at all. Lucy blinked.

"The sunlight is not my enemy. You too, Lucy. You're a celestial mage and you can take sunlight in you. Except for the others, but we still have to avoid it somehow" he said and sat back at a pointy rock behind him. Lucy shrugged, she didn't know much about the vampires. She didn't even knew they exist at some point!

"That's new, I thought all vampires are allergic to sunlight. And they eventually die if they're exposed to it" she said smartly.

Zeref chuckled. "I don't think so! Not me, and not you. In fact one might say, you're a special vampire. Your life would change from now on, and you're going to stay with me a little bit. Why don't you ask me something and I would answer them for you, Luce?"

Lucy pondered. What did she want to ask? Just then, thousands of questions flooded her mind. "I want to know my powers right now. So that no one would look down to me like I am sort of weakling. I also want to ask if I should somehow drink some human blood or will I survive by just hunting animals" she said to Zeref.

He laughed. "You have to discover your powers yourself, Lucy. And I think you're strong, you were never weak. And yes, you should drink human blood at some point or you'll weaken. We can't let Fiore loose all its animals just because of one vampire afraid to kill someone right? You're not human anymore, well...Half-human, but immortal and more of vampire-ish. You will not survive in animal blood for your entire immortality. At least try hunting a human meal twice a week, that would be enough. Anything else you would like to clarify, Lucy?"

She nodded. "Of course. Can you train me for at least a few days before I go back to the camp? Surely they can wait! If you train me to be a strong vampire, it would increase my magic strength!" Lucy cheered.

Zeref shrugged, he never thought of training a person before. "I suppose...Just for a few days, though, then please leave me alone, I just need to give you information, that's it. And not that I like you or anything...Just trying to make up for my sin against you"

"Oh and one last thing, Zeref!"

"What's that, Lucy?"

"How come you can't kill me if your magic is death magic, Zeref?"

He laughed hard. "Surely, you're aware that you're not even really alive, right?"

Lucy shook her head. "No, sorry. So does that mean that I am half-dead and half-alive? That's..." Lucy's voice trailed off. She never thought of it that life would forever change, and what would happen to her friends back at Fairy Tail? More importantly, are they even looking for her right now? Lucy stepped out of the cave, only to find out that Fairy Tail's big ship is all ready to set sail. All the members started climbing aboard, happily chatting to each other. She squinted to see if they are really leaving. Suddenly, the ship moved and floated away from the island, shocking her. They left...Without Lucy. And they totally betrayed her after all.

"Lucy?"

Ending Notes: As I said, there would be no pairings for Lucy just yet. And don't worry, I'll update fast for you fans out there. Try reading AlyxTheAwesome's stories while waiting if you want, they're extremely cool.

Oh and...This ain't a Zercy pairing...He's just making up for his sins.
