-LUCY P.O.V-

On our travels around the cell, we came across some stairs that lead to another hallway.

I creeped along the hallway, Igneel on my tail. We had our backs glued against the wall as we snuck around.

"KYA!" I say as I fall back.

I open my eyes to find myself in a room and Igneel staring down at me from the doorway.

I must've fell against a door I didn't see?

I was rubbing the lump forming on the back of my head when I heard Igneel gasp. I looked up, slightly scared, to see him with a piece of paper in his dried, scarred hands.

"What is it?" I say standing up. His hands were shaking now causing me to panic. "What is it!" He began shakily pointing to the front of the paper which I couldn't see. I walked over to him and looked at the paper. My eyes widened at a picture of Natsu reaching up to get something of a shelf in the supermarket. There was a big red X on the paper where I was on it. I could tell it was me by the blue miniskirt and the white and blue shirt.

"Wh-Why do they h-have this?!" I ask slightly shaking. I look around the room and cover my mouth with my hand as I look at all the pictures all over the walls. There were some of me. Some of my Dad. And a LOT of Natsu!

Were these people or person stalking us?! I continued looking at the photos of Natsu and I. Almost all of them had me cut out of them or drawn over. There were even pictures of Natsu when he was younger.... I pulled one from the wall that had nothing cut out of it. It was Natsu, Erza, Gray and I smiling together. A tear rolled down my cheek and I folded the picture and put it inside my pocket. I turned to Igneel who was still holding the picture of Natsu for dear life. A tear rolled down his wrinkled and worn cheek, then they began streaming down.

"M-My Son?" He said pointing to the picture with a shaky finger.

"Yes.." I say then it hit me. He hasn't saw his son for years.

I just stared at the ground, feeling embarrassed that I hadn't remembered.

"Do, D-Do you love him?" Igneel said in a quiet voice.

I blushed but I nodded my head. "Very much."

"That's good.... That he's had someone to love him.." He hung his head, as if in shame.

"It's not you're fault that you weren't there! It was that psychopaths!" I say trying to make him feel less-bad about himself.

I noticed a notebook on the table in the room beside a computer. I picked it up and looked at the front. Just a plain black notepad. I opened the first page. It sort of looked like a diary entry....

^*^
A/N: Something I don't understand is that like for example, Chapter 3 has like 67 reads and like Ch. 4 has like 50.. How does that make sense? Do people just like skip a chapter??? 😂😂
