A part in the darkness
Lucy
"Hello! Is anybody there?" Lucy shouted as she looked around. She was able to move now, yet she's at a disadvantage. Her keys were stuck to her as if they were mere designs to her belt. She tried calling out a spirit but nothing works. The darkness enveloped her.
Suddenly, she was light. She felt relief as soon as she figured the shape of the person from the light. It was Lisanna.
"Lisanna!" Lucy ran, but stops when she noticed the sword in her hand and the look in her eyes. Her gaze can pierce through the skin. It was as if she planned to kill.
"Lisanna…are you ok?" Lucy tried to back away as far as she could. Lisanna let out a laugh. She held the sword in front of Lucy.
"Time to say Good bye"
"W-what are you talking about?"
"Don't play dumb" Lisanna scoffed "its better if you were gone…that way, nothing else interferes" she began to attack but Lucy manages to avoid it. She began to pull out her keys, but they were still glued to her and her calls don't seem to have effect. Lisanna let out another laugh.
"What's wrong? Spirits can't get out? Too bad, looks like Natsu's mine" she held the sword to her face then faced it forward, ready to charge. Lucy gritted her teeth as she was powerless. Even her whip was attached to her. Another laugh.
"Weakling little rich girls can just perish" then she attacks once again.
Lisanna
In the darkness, she began to run. But running wasn't helping since she doesn't seem to have any destination. As she continues, tears began to run through her eyes. She tried transforming so she could fly but failed. She couldn't do anything, as if she wasn't a mage anymore.
When all hope was lost, she heard footsteps. She turns behind her, in an alert position but eventually ease down when it was only Lucy.
"Oh Lucy, am I glad to see you" Lisanna said all too carefree, as she began to close the distance, something cut through her cheeks. She backs away, touching her bloody left cheek. That's when she notices something on Lucy's hand. A whip.
Lisanna begins to completely back away. Lucy began to speak, her eyes looking at as if it were about to kill its prey, and in her eyes, Lisanna sees herself.
"It was better when you weren't here…so I guess I should just make you disappear" Lucy smiles "Only this time….completely"
Juvia
Juvia began to idly holler out the dark while walking endlessly.
"Lucy! Lisanna!" she yelled "Where are you?"
Just as she was wandering, raindrops began to fall down. She wondered how it was possible when she was inside a building but didn't question it further. She tried to use her magic to shield her from getting wet, but it seems she couldn't. That got her confused.
Juvia began running further, not wanting to stay longer as she noticed that her powers aren't evident. As she was running, she saw Gray, Lisanna and the others in the team. But nonetheless all she cared for is Gray.
"Gray!" she was about to run to him, but Lucy went between them.
"Lucy! Get away from Gray!" Juvia said in an angry tone. Lucy held no emotion as she spoke.
"I hate the rain"
It pierced right through Juvia. The words that she thought she would never hear someone tell her again.
"Waterlock!" She tried, but nothing came out. Lucy continues to speak.
"The rain is depressing, it's no fun…" the others chimed in.
"The rain is a bother"
"I hate the rain"
"The rain should go away"
Juvia couldn't do a thing but just listen to them, her powers ineffective. Her eyes went to Gray who was silent. In his hand was a sphere made of ice.
"Gray…" she mumbles as her tears began to flow.
Gray moves quickly and darts the sphere at her, cutting the length of the side of her hair, barely missing her neck. Juvia hitched her breathe. He made another sphere then began to speak.
"You caused the rain…you should go away"
Happy
Happy was prepared for worst. He was already thinking of being in a fishy heaven where he can eat for eternity. But nothing comes his way.
He opened his eyes to see the girl unmoving. Her eyes darting at him yet held no menacing desire to kill him. But Happy was one not to trust it, who knows what the little girl had in store for him. Her blue eyes gazed at him, still unmoving. He then decided to speak.
"W-what do you want from me?" Happy said, about to spread his wings but found himself unable to. He looked at her with the bravest face he could muster.
The little girl moves a step, Happy steps back, causing her to show emotion, worry.
It troubled him for awhile, why would she show concern? Then she spoke.
"I won't hurt you… I'm not like the others" she said in her soft voice, her figure relaxing, her eyes a bit teary "I don't want to hurt you"
"Then…" Happy began "Why did your friends trap us in this dark place! Answer!" Happy held a fish that he found in his sack. The only weapon he had.
"That's what their ….we're told to do…" the girl went forward, eyes blurred with tears "Please…I don't want to do it…I don't want to hurt people…I don't" she sniffed and began to break down. All her defense was down to zero. And Happy couldn't stand it.
He reached out to her, and patted her head with his paw. She began to sob louder, still repeating the same words.
"I don't want…they said I should…they did it…I don't want…I don't"
Beyond the room, where the three others still fight the unlimited number of mages, they wonder about their comrades.
"They've been silent inside…" Gray said as he punched one of the mages. Erza sliced through the crowd but saw more coming in.
"We can't leave unless they've fished out the kids or if we ever finish this battle" Erza huffed.
Natsu was silent as he wildly went through with the mages. In his minds, his thought was clouded with the same phrase.
'Please be alright…Please be alright'
