🔥🗝🔥🗝🔥🗝

Lucy's POV:

The train ride was horrible, the food was horrible and most of all Natsu was being a drama queen.

Later that day I ended up having a nap and when Natsu woke me up he was super grumpy, why? Cause Sting was outside the inn, finding out I was leaving and didn't even say goodbye hit him hard.

"Lu, is it true your leaving?" A distraught Sting sniffed, "um yeah Natsu said he wanted to take me to visit Magnolia" I said quietly, I was upset that I couldn't see Sting more but a part in me was super excited to visit the town of Magnolia, his frown imediently  flipped into a smile when I mentioned Magnolia, "Magnolia? Really? That's so cool!" I stared at him puzzled until he cleared his trough "my Guild, and home is close to Magnolia", "ok, I better get going" I said wanting to get away and onto the train as soon as possible.

I ran inside and quickly finished packing. Then I rushed to the front of the inn where Natsu and Sting were waiting. "Oh Lucy, I'll miss you" sting sobbed, his arms clung around my neck, couldn't this guy take the hint, "oh Sting don't worry we'll see each other soon" I said wiping the tears off of his cheeks. I watched as he pulled away, my eyes glazed over his shoulder seeing an livid Natsu his eyes burning into Stings back. "Lucy can I talk to you privately" he said squirming under the intense glare Natsu gave him, I saw him shake his head at me signaling me not to.

I pondered the thought, Sting looked really desperate and eventually I sided with him, giving Natsu a reassuring smile I then took Stings arm in mine and walked away from the inn.

"Sting? What's so important?" I spoke after a brief pause of awkward silence. "Lucy I have something really important to tell you" he leaned in getting closer to my face, nervously I stutter "wha-at is I-I-it sting?" I replied stuttering, "I like someone......they're really nice and I need to tell them I lik-" I cut him off, what if he liked me? We were friends nothing else "S-Sting I umm.... I really need to go.....".

I quickly tried to walk away, but when he yelled out my name I had to stop again. "i'll see you soon Lucy, i promise, then we can talk", he yelled out blowing a kiss and walking away. With my face flushed i headed back to Natsu, imideantly seeing me his face scrunched up and a frown. "What were you guys talking about?" He glared at the retreating figure of Sting, "Nothing can we just go?" He let out a final huff before we walked to the train station to board it.

Natsu's POV:

I knew what they were talking about, I'm not dumb..... well maybe a little but I have super hearing from my dragon side so of course I knew what they were talking about. It makes me mad knowing Lucy could of been stolen from me, and by that blondie of all people.

The train ride took four hours, so most of the way I thought of the Blonde beauty besides me, and this may seem stalker-ish but I was watching her sleep, for protection wise. I did notice however her talking in her sleep. I was on the brink of sleep until I heard her mutter words that had my eyes turning into slits.

"Acnologia" she shivered, I slowly wrapped my arms around her calming myself down, "Stop" she cried and starting flailing around and I found it hard to contain her arms, people where starting to look and I felt the sweat fall from my head. "Dad?" I felt her stiffen, she obviously didn't have a great childhood. "Help me, please" her struggling and movement obviously woke her up.

Tears where rolling down her cheeks as she sniffled, she seemed in a lot of pain. But when her face turned to me she stiffened and quickly manoverd herself out of my grip, moving as far away from me as possible squeezing herself.

Lucy POV:
I had that nightmare again, it happened at the inn too. When I woke up something was holding me down, I didn't like it so I pushed my way out of its grasp and moved onto the far side of the train seat.

"Leave me alone!" I screamed, quickly looking up I met his eyes, his brown slitted eyes. I was scared so I diverted my eyes hoping he would disappear, the only face coming in the mind was that of my Dads. Natsu's slitted eyes reminded me of Dads, they where almost the same shade, only Natsu's are darker.

I felt a strong grip on my wrist as I was yanked forwards into a hard chest. "Luce are you ok?" He asked his eyes softening, the nightmares that haunt me day and night replayed over, his words got jumbled and to me came out harsher.

He raised his hand, afraid he would hit me I mumbled, "Don't hurt me please". I don't know what happened next it was all a blur, Natsu face turned an unnatural shade of red, his eyes resumed into slits and his jaw clenched, watching him made my head spin . When my eyes came back to focus Natsu had hundreds of scales covering his legs, arms and face, two curled horns came out of his head and his teeth grew to fangs.

"Why the Hell would I hurt you?!" He roared, a stuttering jellyfish would be more understandable then me at the moment.

"L-l-ea-ve me a-a-alone y-y-o-u mon-s-te-r" i cruelly spat out, pushing him off me, i didn't know what i was doing but i convinced myself it was right. He was scaring me and i felt threatened so i continued flicking my arms and struggling my body to get out Natsu's grip. 

"Lucy!" he yelled, trying to cease my struggling "i don't know what the hell your thinking, but i would never hurt you!" i stopped moving as he buried his face in my shoulder, the train slowed down into a roll then a stop.

"Third stop Magnolia!" the conductor yelled over the loudspeaker. I pushed Natsu off in panic as more people flooded the train, quickly i scrambled to the door losing Natsu in the crowd of people.

"Lucy!" was the last thing herd Natsu say as i deboard the train and he got stuck in the huge crowd.
