Erza P.O.V.

I woke up with a headache. I opened my eyes slowly. My vision was still blurry. I felt how my hands were chained above my head. I tried to remember what happened. I stiffed. I looked around and saw I was in a cell. The cells next to me were empty.

Then, I heard a sound. The sound of chains. "Erza," I heard. I looked up and saw Lucy against me in the other cell. Her hands were also chained against the wall just above her head. I smelled some blood and saw the wound on her stomach. "Lucy," I said. Lucy smiled at me. "We got company outside Erza, so talk through the link." She said. I nodded. "I'm so glad you're alive. I was scared you didn't make it after you sent your last message." I smiled back. "I'm sorry Lucy, I didn't want to worry you." She shook her head and answered: "It's okay." I tried to break free from my chains, but I'm still weak.

"Spare your energy Erza," said Lucy. She coughed up some blood. "Lucy," I said worried. She smiled and said: "I'm okay Erza." I knew she was lying. "Lucy, what happened?" I asked. Lucy didn't answer. "Lucy, please." I begged.

"I did it again Erza. I lost control over my body and almost killed someone." I stiffed by her words. "When I heard your last words, my anger took over. My wolf dominated me and I couldn't do anything. I..." But I interrupted her. "I'm sorry Lucy." She looked confused at me. "I'm sorry I made you worry. Thanks to me, you lost control. And thanks to me your imprisoned, again. I promised you freedom, but I failed." I said. "Please Erza, don't cry." Said Lucy softly. I looked up, and noticed I'm crying. "You didn't do anything wrong Erza. You're like my big sister, and I never abandon or blame my family." I smiled weak.

"Do they know who we are?" I asked after a while. "I don't know," she answered. "Listen Lucy, don't tell your last name. They are spies everywhere from Grimoire Heart. And I will not take the risk that they know that you are here." She smiled at me and nodded. "I will Erza."

Suddenly we heard the door. I gave Lucy a quick look. She nodded. Then we saw two men, Jet and Droy. They looked at me for a second. But then, they turned around. "Time to go sweetie," said Jet to Lucy.

I growled loud. The two men looked at me. "Don't worry, your next." Said Droy this time smirking. Droy opened Lucy her cell and walked inside. "Where are you taking us?" I heard Lucy asking. "To the interrogation room," answered Droy. I stiffed, and saw Lucy. She looked pale and was shaking. "Lucy," I said through the link. But Lucy didn't listen. Droy released Lucy from her chains. Jet, who stood at the door noticed Lucy her behavior. I saw how Lucy her eyes shifted from brown to gold. "What the?" Said Droy, but at that moment Lucy grabbed Droy by his collar and threw him to the silver bars. The silver bars burned in Droy his back. He howled from the pain. Before he could say something, Lucy knocked him unconscious.

Jet was surprised and reacted fast, but Lucy was faster and jumped on him. She kicked him in the stomach. He coughed loud. Then she threw him in her cell, where Droy already was. She closed the cell. "Lucy," I said again through the link. I saw how she trembled and tried to fight against her wolf. She fell on her knees. "Lucy," I said this time out loud. She looked up. "You can do this, breath in and out. Just try to relax." She nodded and followed my directions. I saw how her eyes shifted back. "Lucy, you okay?" I asked worried. She stood up and took the keys. "Yes Erza, I'm okay for now."

She opened my cell and released me from my chains. "We need to get out of here." She said. I nodded. I started to walk, but I was still weak from the wolfs bane. I almost collapsed, but Lucy grabbed my arm and carried me. "Lucy, you need to let me go." I said. She ignored me. We were now at the door. "Lucy, you will get caught if you drag me with you." This time Lucy looked at me. I saw she got tears in her eyes. "I will never abandon you Erza. All these years, you were there for me. Now it's my turn." I smiled. "Thank you Lucy." She smiled back.

Lucy looked in the hallway. "Everything is safe, let's go." She said. We walked together through the halls. The wolfs bane in my body slowly disappeared. Lucy led the way, because she smelled the outside. I watched our back.

Suddenly Lucy stiffed. "What is..." But Lucy was faster and covered my mouth with her hand. She gave me a sign I had to be quiet. She grabbed my hand and took me into a storage room. I sniffed in the air, and recognized the Beta and the Gamma. There was also a third person with them. I prepared myself to fight, but Lucy took my arm. "Don't be nervous, they can smell it." She said. I nodded and tried to relax. We waited till they were a little further.

"Okay, we need to be quick. Our escape will be noticed quickly." I looked in a chest and found two cloaks. "Here, our uniforms will attract too much." I said. She nodded and took the clock. When we are ready we walked outside. Outside, it was very busy. People were walking everywhere. "Looks like there is a market," said Lucy this time out loud. "Indeed, it's good for us." She nodded.

We blend through the crowd. Thanks to the cloak we didn't attract too much attention. We walked further to the front gates from the pack. There we saw two soldiers. "What now?" I asked. "We just pass them, it's the only option." Lucy answered. I hesitated but nodded. We walked past the soldiers without problems. We walked into the forest.

But then Lucy froze. "What is it?" I asked. She looked at me and answered: "They know, we need to get out of her immediately." I nodded and shift into my wolf. "Jump on," I said. Lucy got on my back and we ran away from the pack.
