Lucy POV:

"Is everything clear?" A crimson-haired girl asked the boy with weird patterns of tattoo on his face, near his eyes. But what caught my eyes more was that funny tattoo matched the girl' s hair.

"The things are prepared." The boy replied her with a grin on his face.What did they mean?

"These moron will deserve this." Her voice had a hint of anger as she clenched her fist.Who are those 'moron'?

"I'm sure they will. Natsu will settle it." He gave her a peck on her forehead as a sign of comfort. Why Natsu is involved in it?

"I hope so." She gave him a squeeze to his hand.

"Hey, trust me." He gently raised her head by lifting her chin up.

"I trust you." She fix her gaze on him as they scrambled for their next action.

A cloth appeared in my face and covered my mouth before I realised. Struggling, I gasped for my own breath. It was no use. Gradually, my body turned weak against the attacker. I finally gave in and closed my eyes.

Natsu POV:

My hands closed into fists as I crouched forward, daring Levy to repeat once more the words that had might torn my heart into pieces.

"She is not in the room, Natsu." My eyes glowing with anger after hearing Levy's words.

"Search for her." Slamming my fist on the table, I growled in anger despite the bruise. Even if it wounded, that did not stop me for being mad. She was gone. Gone. But that does not help to reduce my displeasure, I'm still not pleased.

"Aye Sir." My men shuddering in fear as they ran for their life.

"There is no need for that." The iron eater show himself with Lucy hung over his shoulder like a towel. As usual, he is not a gentleman. And he just touched my Lucy. I would have just kill him for that.

"Let her go." I ordered him as he proceeded to let go Lucy. Luckily, I caught her before her fragile body hit the ground.

"Salamander, could you explain why there is an intruder on our ship?" He raised his eyebrow at me as everyone eyed at me suspiciously.

Oh yes, how could I forget to tell them about Lucy? Maybe I should employ a memory helper.

"And if I ever catch anyone trying to touch her even a single strand of her hair , I shall break your neck." I warned them with a serious look.
