Previously...
I dried my eyes so I focus upon the person who had saved me from falling to the ground. That's when I realised who it was...

Present...
Lucy's POV

Sting... He gave me a quick smile and pulled me back onto my feet, whist catching me in an embrace. "You alright blondie?" He questioned, "why are you running away?" An evil smirk started to grow upon his face.
"Sting get off me," With all the strength my body possessed I tried pulling away, but he only held me tighter as he pushed me against a tree. "Sting get off!! And why are you in my garden??" I asked as I tried getting out of his grip.
"Waiting for you of course. Gray told me you would run here if things went wrong, and it looks like things went wrong so it's my turn," A darkening aura started surrounding him, just like what happened with Gray. From shock and fear, I froze.

He was with Gray, they were planning something the whole time. I've had enough of this... I need him, I thought as I yet again tried to get out of his grip whilst Sting began kissing my neck. "NATSUUUU!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, in response Sting slapped my face causing me to fall to the floor.
"Nobody can hear you out here princess, your mine. Nobody is going to save you."

He walked towards me and grabbed me by my hair, and once again shoving me against the tree. "Now shut up, and stop fidgeting," Once again he started kissing my neck, the disgust and dirty feeling filled my body. I didn't want this, I was struggling to free myself from his grip. Nothing worked. Natsu please I need you, I thought as tears began to fall from my face.

Sting began undoing my dress, I couldn't push the muscular boy off of me. Tears streamed down my face, just as he was about to pull it off. There was a flash of red and Sting was on the floor, blood running down his nose, claw marks gashed into his chest, with bruises painted all over him.

Quickly, I dried my eyes to see what attack Sting. But before I knew it I felt large, muscular, scaly arms wrap around my shacking body. I looked up to see who it was. Pink hair hung over the face that brought light into my world. Natsu. I returned the embrace and stood there for several minutes. "Sorry Luce, I didn't mean to take so long," He apologised as he loosened his grip around me and walked over towards the unconscious, possibly dead Sting.
"Where were you? You broke your promise!" I questioned/ said as I followed him.
"I had to do something, I'll explain later. And what do you mean I broke my promise, I'm here now aren't I?"

"Yea, sorry it's been a long day," That's when I realised he had... Wings, a tail, horns, talons, scales that covered the majority of his body and he wore no top showing off his muscular torso. But somehow, I wasn't afraid of him. He looked at me with a questioning expression, "Are you ok? I forgot to ask. Did he hurt you?" He questioned me as he walked over to me after examining Stings lifeless body.

"I'm fine, honestly," I lied as he pressed his scaly hand against my bruised face where sting had slapped me.
"Your not, come on Luce you can't lie to me," he was right I can't. A single tear began to fall down my face. Natsu jumped back, "Oh my god I'm so sorry, I forgot I was in this form did I scare you?? I'm so so sorry..." He trailed off as he transformed into his human form.

Natsu's POV

Tears still fell down her delicate face, "Lucy what's the matter, have I really scared you that much," I kept my distance from her just encase she might run away and tell everyone there's a monster in her garden. Surprisingly, I felt delicate arms wrap around me. I looked down to see a weeping Lucy, I returned her embrace as she cried, "Don't ever leave me again!! I've missed you so much!!" I didn't think she would remember me, after 5 long years, I thought she would have found other friends.
"Lucy, I missed you too. But aren't you scared of me?" I questioned her as I tightened the embrace.
"No dummy," she chuckled as she dried her tears, "how could I be scared of you, you've saved me twice now," she had a point.
"I wonder if it will be a third time I wonder," chuckled an eery voice. I turned my head to see who it was, and there stood a boy about my age with raven hair in a black suit.
"Who the hell are you?" I questioned the raven haired boy as Lucy quivered under my embrace, almost hiding herself in my arms.
"My name is Gray Fullbuster, and I'm here to retrieve what's mine,"
"And what's that?" I questioned as I felt my anger start to build.
"I'm here for my fiancée, Lucy come here sweetheart,"
"Your not having her!!" Lucy looked up at me, "well do you want to be with him?..." I questioned her as I felt my heart almost snap. She shook her head and buried it into my shoulder.
"Okay then, let's have some fun," an evil smirk appeared on his face as his dark aura filled the garden. This isn't good.
