"How are humans the problem?"  Lucy asked, confused.

"Dragons left because of humans.  They left because of the threat they cause."  Lores replied, his eyes flashing.  "So, we will bring an end to this problem."

"W-Wait a minute!"  Lucy exclaimed.  "D-Do you mean that you're going to get rid of humans?!"  When Lores' lips quirked, horror filled Lucy's body.  "You can't!  Do you realize what you're doing?!  You'll kill everyone!"

"I know very well what I am doing, and so does Loren."  Lores replied, his voice sly.  "We knew you would stand in our way, so we decided to defeat you, then complete our motive."

"How do you even plan to do this..?!"  Lucy replied, not believing what she was hearing.

"We have a weapon."  Lores replied, looking down at her like she was dirt.  "One we've stored magic in for centuries."

"A machine?"  Lucy asked.  "What...?"

"We've gathered magic over the centuries."  Lores explained.  "We've even taken magic from the dragons you let out of yourself all those weeks ago."

"Y-You did?"

"Of course.  Nothing is more powerful than a dragon's magic."  Lores replied, a smirk slowly apearing on his face.  "If we destroy all of Fiore, starting with Magnolia, the dragons will finally come back."

"This is crazy!"  Lucy exclaimed.  "You'll die too!"

"I know that."  Lores replied, and Lucy looked at him with confusion.  "But sacrificing all lives for dragons to rule over the land again must be done.  They deserve the role of the only creatures on this land."

"I won't let you do this!"  Lucy exclaimed.  "And neither will my friends!"

Lores smirked.  "Loren and I thought so.  That is why..."  He took a few warning steps forward, making Lucy press her back against the wall in caution.  "..we will start with you."

Lucy was silent for a moment.  "We've saved Fiore before.  If you think we'll let you do this, you're wrong.  We'll fight you, your sister, and destroy that machine until Fiore is safe again!"

Lores was not so easily angered; he smiled sharply, but backed away.  "There are things you don't know about yourself, so how can you possibly defeat us?"

Lucy froze.  "What?"

Lores turned to Lucy, realizing he'd snatched her.  "Did you ever figure out how you got the dragons sealed on your soul, Lucy?"

Lucy's breath hitched.  "No, I..."  She wandered off.  "D-Do you know?"

Lucy took that as a yes when Lores smirked at her, clearly hiding something.

"You, Lucy Heartfilia, were placed under that spell by your own mother."
