The tires came into a halt at the middle of the park. It was dark everywhere, nothing except the light from the single lamp pole brightened up the place.

Nobody was around.

Of course, it was already late. Who would wanna hang out in such an eerie place?

Lucy tightened her grip on the wheels, breathing in deeply. She was afraid. Just because she drove right into the trap doesn’t mean she's brave.

Finding what little courage she had brought with her, she slowly opened the car’s door. With the same quietness, she closed it.

The moment it did, men came out of every corner of the park. One after another. They were clearly expecting her.

Some carried baseball bats and what other things that could be used to smash a bone in two.

Just watching them walk into the light and walk towards her, Lucy’s eyes showed it all. Fear. Complete fear. And this was nothing like the ‘haunted house’ kind of fear. This was shitty-fear-for-your-life-but-you-love-him-that’s-why-you’re-doing-it-anyway kind of fear.

The men under the hoods circled her, outnumbered her a dozen to one.

Then there was silence.

Lucy looked at each and one of them. When her eyes landed on someone puffing a cigarette, she knew, he was the frontrunner. It was obvious, the guy had the quality for it.

“P-Please…don’t try to hurt him.” she said in a trembling voice at the man.

But he just chuckled at her. Amused at the sight of her vulnerability.

“Make her shut up.”

Lucy heard him say.

Before she could say a word, a man behind her already gave a blow on her head with a wood, knocking her out senseless.

“Bring her,” He said, to which one of his men picked Lucy’s body up and carried her towards their black minivan.  

“Cool car,” one of the followers said, eyeing the mustang, “Can we keep it?”

Then a baseball bat swung its way to the windshield, smashing into it.

“Nah, let’s destroy it,” another one proposed with a sick grin.

And everyone joined in on disfiguring the expensive car. Apparently, destroying things was their forte.

“Write something down on the ground for me,” the superior one said as he turned to one of his men.

.

“It stops here,” Jellal said to the others. He was looking at his phone and the tracker said they’ve reached their destination. Without his car, he had to go in the minivan’s backseat with Sting and Loki. If they brought the girls with them, they’d be like canned sardines in the vehicle. Wise decision they didn’t.

“The park?” Gray who was driving, said in confusion as he put the vehicle into a stop.

“This isn’t right,” Sting shook his head.

“I have a-,” Loki started.

“-bad feeling ‘bout this,” Gajeel finished for him.

The black bike that was following behind went past through them. It entered straight into the park.
