LUCY

My heart felt as if it had stopped when I watched Evangeline began coughing. Everything went in slow motion it was unreal, like a nightmare where you knew you would wake up. I was brought back into reality when her body finally hit the floor.

"EVANGELINE!" I screamed as I scrambled towards her. Suddenly, I was yanked back.

"Why are you helping her?" asked Freed. I was barely able to answer him, for I was already choking on sobs. "Why are you trying to help a wanted criminal Lucy!"

"Because she's my sister!" I screamed. I yanked my arm free and ran to Evangeline's side. She was pale, and almost out of magic. She took shaky, shallow breaths and her pulse was weak. She was dying. "Evangeline, hang in there," I said. I tried picking her up, ignoring the pain that was searing though my body. Tears were still streaming down my eyes, making my vision cloudy. I stumbled a few times, but suddenly, some of the weight was lifted. I looked over to see Freed holding onto her as well.

We barely made it to the Guildhall before collapsing.

Everything went silent.

"Lucy," said Natsu, breaking the silence. He came running our way, along with the rest of the members.

"S... Save Eva," I said before blacking out.

3rd Person

"What's with the commotion," asked Guild master Marokov. He walked over to the scene to see two of his wizards and the young lady who had cause a disruption in his guild just yesterday. He sighed and shook his head. "Reedus, Fetch Porlyusica please." The large painter magician nodded and went right away. "Natsu, Grey and Elfman, carry these three to the infirmary please." The three immediately followed their master's order in fear of their friend's wellbeing.

Reedus arrived shortly with Porlyusica in tow. Being used to having to tend to the wizards of FairyTail, Porlyusica went straight to the infirmary, where she did her job.

A few minutes after being tend to, Freed and Lucy woke up.

They tried to get up, but the pink haired healer stopped them. "Don't be so quick, you still aren't 100% as yet."

"Is Eva okay?" asked Lucy while looking around.

"The young woman with the fiery red hair," said Porlyusica as she peered over to the closed cubicle of the said girl. "She's going to be asleep for a few days, but she'll be fine. She used almost all of her magic. If she had used any more of it, she would have been a dead woman."

Lucy let out a deep sigh of relief.

Porlyusica went back over to the sleeping Evangeline. She stared at the girl. "Something's off with you," she said. "I just can't put my finger on it." She bid a farewell to the guild as she went back to her home.

Lucy looked up from her book as the curtains of her cubicle slid open. As far as she was concerned, the guild members were going to leave her alone until tomorrow.

It was Freed. He closed the curtains back and sat in the little chair by her bed. He looked at his hands as if he was trying to find the right words to say to Lucy.

"About Evangeline," he said. "I'm sorry."

He got up and began to leave, but Lucy stopped him. "It's okay, you didn't know."

There was a beat of silence between the two, and then Lucy broke it.

"I didn't know what she did during the three years that she was missing. I had no idea she was a criminal."

Freed lifted a lime green brow at her and took a seat.

Lucy began to tell the story of her and Evangeline's past. When she was done, she let out a deep sigh.

"I had no idea she was a criminal."

"She was a part of the Dark Soul Guild," said Freed. "I accepted a job to apprehend them until the royal army came. I remembered that she was caught in my enchantment. How she escaped, I would like to know, because as far as I am concerned all the members of that guild is still behind bars."

He then let out a deep breath.

"The only way to get a solution is to ask her yourself. Wait until she wakes up," he said, then began to leave. "In the main time, get some rest."

Lucy watched as he drew the curtains back across.

"What have you been up to Eva?"
