Chapter 9: So the battle begins
(Hey Minna
So sorry for the slow update but next week I will be a lot more active because it's school holidays WHOOP {for me that is}
There is a picture on the side on how the EEEEVIL master mind looks except he has a scar on his face and can look a little bit scarier :P
I also dedicate this chapter to RonjaOvesen for she/he asked me to update ages ago and I said I would but school got in the way so THANK YOU for being paitient and for reading this far :)
Enjoy and read)
??? POV
This girl has enough nightmares for me to controll her for life and her celestrial magic can come in handy, just another day or two and her mind will be mine. The only thing in my way is that stupid Dragonslayer, he never leaves her side but as soon as I controll her mind there won't be a dragonslayer around to protect her.
Natsu's POV
It's been a couple of hours since I went to Lucy's and I am now at the guild, a few more people were beside her bed now and I soon joined them, they all gave me a sympethetic look but they didn't have to, I mean we are all friends with Lucy but something inside me lights up when i'm around her...maybe it's just me, I don't know but Lucy ended up whispering something I haven't heard her say in a few days.
"Natsu..."
the very few guild members that were in the room looked at me and that's when I felt something cold but warm rush down my cheek. I then felt Erza's hand go near my face...she gently put her finger near my eye...I have never seen this side of Erza before and I am not sure if I should be afriad of it or not but I realised she wiped away...a tear, my tears...she was about to say something but I didn't want to hear it so I walked out of the infirmary!
Why am I so affected by this, I just don't understand...another walk shouldn't hurt but this time I'll go alone, I don't want anyone seeing me like this, it hurts...my chest hurts, the thought of Lucy never waking up is like getting stabbed multible times, not that I know what it feels like.
Erza POV
Natsu walked out the door and I could hear the guild door's open and shut too...he must really care about Lucy...he's too dense to realise it but we are all worried about her, she hasn't woken up in about 4 days and we have no idea what that man wants to do with her but he did say something about controlling her mind.
"I'm going to speak to Makarov you all keep an eye on Lucy" I said to Gray, Wendy, Levy and some of the others that were in there.
They all nodded and I headed up stairs to the master's office, I have to talk to him about something, something i'm not quite sure about. I knocked on Makarov's door and he instantly says
"Come in"
So I did and he was sitting at his desk, deep in thought.
"Erza...what is it?"
"Evening Master Makarov...it's concerns Lucy-"
Master Makarov got out of his desk and walked up to me
"and Natsu" I continued
"I see" He nods "what is it that concerns you?"
"The man that I told you about earlier...the one who put Lucy to sleep...do you have any idea how he can use Lucy's nightmares to control her mind?"
Makrov stood there like he was remembering something
"From the information I got from Natsu, this mage manipulates the brain by attacking it at it's most vanuable...when it's asleep, but the mage needs more than that he needs something dark to help feul this...thus taking over the mind completely..."
He looked at me seriously now and I didn't know what to say...we don't know what nightmares Lucy holds let alone the dark power it can feul
"Natsu is maturing..." I suddenly say
"Yes but in the wrong way" He said sadly but nodded
"one more thing Master Makarov"
"Hmm"
"It concerns Lucy and Natsu again but how did Natsu know Lucy as a child..."
"Erza! you do understand that Natsu's father, Igneel the fire dragon, left him as a child?"
"Yes and so did the others" I replied calmly
"Before Natsu came to the guild, I believe he met up with the Heartifilas...with no where else to go"
I paused, so Natsu met her half way
"So Natsu met Lucy half way"
He simply nodded and I was about to reply but I heard Levy yell
"Erza she's awake" she squealed happily
What?! Lucy is awake but that can't be, Makarov must of been thinking the same thing because he came with me to the infirmary but what Levy said was true, Lucy was indeed awake but something seemed off about her, Levy turned to me and smiled brightly
"Lucy" I said warmly
But I got no answer all I saw was Lucy blank expression as she sat up on the bed
"Lucy? You okay" I asked again but a bit more cautious
This time she turned her head to me but she seemed a bit...limp? Like she was a puppet...wait that means-
"I'm afraid the celestial Mage is no longer in your presence at this moment in time" Lucy said interrupting my thoughts
It was her voice but it wasn't exactly her
"L-Lu-chan?" Levy stuttered
"Where's the dragon slayer?" Luc- well the puppet master asked me
Lucy stood up off the bed and she didn't seem so limp but her eyes were blank like they were still asleep and she was dressed in her pink night gown that I and Levy helped her change into. Makarov was still standing behind me not daring to make a move so I didn't either
"He left" I simply stated
"Well I guess I have to go search for him do-don't I" Lucy stuttered at the last part and I quickly saw her brown eyes come to life but hey instantly went dark and blank again
Lucy walked out side the infirmary and near the guild door, why wasn't anyone stopping her...why am I not stopping her
"Lucy!!!" I yelled
She turned to me blankly staring at me
"What are you planning to do to Natsu?" I ask
"oh not to worry...Titania...the warmth he gives to me is sickening and I must exterminate all light that comes before me" Lucy replied coldly with a sly but creepy smile planted across her face
I just lost it...who ever is in Lucy's mind is not Lucy! so I dashed forward with my sword ready to attack but her brown eyes came into view and all I saw was fear
"E-Erza!" Lucy shrieked
I stopped my attack and I looked directly into Lucy's tear filled eyes
"It's dark and lonely help AH!" she yelped and her eyes turned dark and empty again
"You wouldn't want to hurt poor Lucy now would you?" Empty Lucy smirked
"Sick baster-" but I was interrupted when empty Lucy suddenly punched me in the stomach.
I fell to the ground and looked up at Empty Lucy, I didn't know Lucy's body had such strength and with that she walked out if the guild, not to be seen
"Erza! you okay?" Levy half cried
"Juvia says we should find Natsu!" Juvia stated
I glanced at Makarov and he was spilling with rage, who ever is controlling Lucy is hurting her mentally and the Master can't stand for such a thing and I for one should know
"Everyone! Look for Natsu! He is the only chance we have to save Lucy" Makarov announced
Gray, Levy, Wendy, Happy, Gajeel, Everyone nodded in agreement and we all left to search for Natsu, some of us went to search for Lucy but she was already long gone, her 'captor' must of teleported or hidden her magic power some how but no matter we need to find Natsu before it's too late!
??? POV inside Lucy's mind/body
Now that I have full control of this girl I have all if her memories some are more dark than others and I need to get rid if the happy, bright ones so I can have full control over the girls Mind, Heart and Soul. There is one thing stopping me to achieve this goal is that Dragon Slayer, Natsu Dragneel! Every time he is near this body gets warm, filled with happy memories and my powers can't consume such feelings so getting rid of this dragon slayer will be easy especially with this girl in use.
Now if this girls memory is correct her celestial keys should be in her apartment and I am now at the front door, damn it's locked, I would knock down the door but this girls body doesn't have such strength.
"What's this?" I say to my self
I spot a window and it's unlocked, why does she keep it unlocked Ah! Thanks celestial Mage, thanks to you and that dragon Slayer I have a way into your house and I wouldn't call it breaking in because well it is your body.
I climbed through the window and I instantly spot the girls keys, she has a fair few...maybe she has more magic power than I anticipated, I grabbed the keys and looked in the mirror and I saw the girl's reflection, her eyes all drak and empty, as if she was asleep
"Heh"
That's because she is and she is fighting a war with her own mind and my powers, her powers will soon be mine and so will the villagers...but they don't have much use for me. I walked over to the door and unlocked it, allowing my self to get out and the wind was the first thing that hit my face, blowing the golden locks around my head.
??? POV the actual guy himself :D
Now that I have the girls body wandering the streets for me, I too can look for that blasted Dragon Slayer. I flew around all of Manolia, making sure i'm not seen, and I happen to see the Dragon Slayer ordering some food outside a stand...well this is going to be easier than I thought.
Natsu's POV
I was ordering some snacks from this food stand because I am rather hungry and I havn't eaten in a while. After I ordered and payed, I wandered the streets of Magnolia
(I actually hope I spelt it right BUT thanks to kiki5cat IT IS NOW SPELLED RIGHT...feel proud :D)
and I could smell something sweet, damn you strong sense of smell, but it smelled familiar
"Hmmm"
The smell of Vanilla and flowers...Vanilla and flowers...Lucy used to always smell like that...LUCY?! I was about to follow the scent but I overheard a familiar voice
"Natsu!"
I looked to where the voice was coming from and I saw Erza with Happy, Gray and Levy?
"Hey!" I grinned not as broadly as I usually would but I still smiled
"Natsu! he is out to get you" Erza warned me
"What?....who?" I replied
Gray growled
"The wizard who put Lucy to sleep...he has control over her and he is-"
But Gray was interupted with a loud crash of a goblin destroying a near by bridge...the maggots are back!
"You are a tough one to find Dragon Slayer..." a male's voice said from somewhere
"Up there!" Happy yelled
I looked up and so did Erza and Gray and we saw that hooded figure who had a scar on his face and he also had a wild grin on his face
"But are you as tough to kill?" he smirked
and before I could process his words he attacked me with a dark blade! Where the hell did that come from!? I dodged the attack as did the Gray and Erza, Happy was already way up in the air.
"Fire Dragons Fist" I yelled
flying through the air, attempting to punch the man but he simply dodged and landed on the ground, he is fast, i'll give him that. I still had a bit of fire power to do this
"Fire Dragon's Wing Attack"
Just as the blow was about to be given a girl was put in view...golden locks moving around in the wind and she had a pink nightgown on...wait that's Lucy, I stopped my attack before I could hit anyone or in this case, hurt Lucy.
"L-Lucy" I stuttered she was awake!
I loosened up my attack stance and looked into her eyes but they were empty, cold and dark...not her normal warm chocolate brown
"You're....awake" I continued
"Natsu don't he has control over her...she can't hear you she has no contr-" Erza started to say
but before she could finish I saw the dark Mage give a dangerous smirk and I looked back at Lucy and she had an out strecthed grin on her face...not that beau-....not that beautiful smile I have come to know.
Before I knew it Lucy got out one of her keys and yelled
"Gate Of the Lion I open thee LEO" (Loke)
A bright light shone and Loke appeared he seemed confused and he looked at me then to Lucy
"Leo...destroy the Dragon Slayer" Lucy said coldly
Wait...what's going on?
"What's going on" Loke said confused and a bit loudly
"Don't question my orders...destroy him or be destroyed!" Lucy yelled harshly
her voice it wasn't sweet, caring or outgoing it was harsh and brutal. Loke gave a glance to me and looked down
"I'm sorry Natsu"
and with that Loke attacked me and I braced for impact
(CLIFF HANGER aha you love me you know you do :P
