Shadows Brought into the Stars (book 2)

Your My Hero

"Darkness...
Strive and greed...
Open thee gate of hell...
Through selfish ways a bloody pool of lies...
HEIRLOOM..."
Levy chanted in the middle of a circle.
And the circle turned into a portal!
"Rogue! Hurry!" Natsu yelled shoving Rogue into the portal.
Rogue fell in immediately!
Not caring if his exceed is mad or sad, right now he only cares about one person!
And that person is Lucy.

Rogue fell through the air and hit the ground making him dizzy but when he finally got to his feet, he saw a giant castle that would be hard to miss.
His anger filled him up and his fists were clenched at the thought of Lucy being hurt.
He turned into a shadow and sped through the castle.
He looked through every room, with his shadow drive but couldn't find the blonde beauty.
"Lucy?!!" He shouted.
... he vaguely heard her voice because it was faint, but he heard it...
"Rogue!" She screamer from a random direction.
But mixed in with it was an evil laughter.
"I see your trying to take my queen because she's you've 'mate'," a Mokarov look alike said walking into Rogue's view.
Rogue grit his teeth as he looked at Mokarov, "How could you? Mokarov?"
But Mokarov sweat dropped, "BECAUSE I'M NOT HIM! GEEZ! LUCY THOUGHT SO TO! BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE OF HER LOW IQ!"
Rogue stared at the man as if saying ' what the heck'.
"Never matter! In order for her to be mine your going to have to die!" And Edolas Mokarov charged at Rogue," Lucy will never be yours!"
Rogue instantly turned into a shadow to dodge it but appeared again next to him.
And the two fought.

Lucy's P.O.V
"Lucy?!!" I heard Rogue yell from somewhere in the palace!
I shout back his name, "Rogue!"
But I didn't hear anything after that.
"Edolas master wants me to punish you for calling back to him, Minerva said with a twisted smirk.
Crap!
"No! Please not again!" I yelp but bit my tongue.
"Only if you beg for mercy," Minerva said, that stupid smirk never leaving her face.
"Never!" I spit out.
But that made my hand cuffs tighten, and she pulled a whip out of nowhere.
Whip-ish!
Whip-ish!
Whip-ish!
I bit my tongue from crying and screaming but a few tears slipped from my eyes as Minerva continued to whip me.
Every single hit stung.
"Ahhh!" I finally screamed at the top of my lungs.
"Feel the pain that I felt!" Minerva shouted happily like she was enjoying it.

Rogue's P.O.V
I heard an ear piercing scream that was familiar to me!
Lucy!
I was still fighting the Imposter.
I've decided to ditch this.
So as I disappeared into the shadows I smirked at the old man, "we'll meet again."
And my shadow drive races to find the sound of the scream.
It lead me to an underground part, and as I pass it, it looks like jails and prisons!
I heard the sound of a whip hitting skin and I'm moving faster in shadow drive!

I burst through a room that I saw in horror as Lucy was tied down by her wrists and ankles, but was being whipped by Minerva!
As she was receiving blow by bow, I jumped in the way and caught the whip.
Lucy's eyes were tight as she expected to be hit by the whip.
"Minerva..." I said in a deep growl and she knew I was pissed.
Never mess with a dragon slayer and his/her mate!
I instantly grab her by her throat and pull her close, "stay away from me and Lucy!" And I throw her into the nearest wall from behind her as she becomes unconscious.
"Lucy..." my voice slurred, with my bangs covered by my hair, "I'm, I'm so sorry."
And a few tears slipped from my eyes.
I look at her, she looks tired, weak from the blows, and her tear stained eyes looked at me as she said, "your my hero."
