~Nobody's POV

Natsu stared darkly at Lucy who was lying underneath him. It was dark so Lucy could only see a fraction of his face.

She was frightened. Natsu was hurting her and she wasn't allowed to say anything at all. Only screaming. Not that she is screaming all the time.

Natsu grabbed her hair and brought her up. He came close to her face. "Enjoying everything I give you?"

She glared at him hissing at the slightest movement. "I will never give you the pleasure of hurting me."

Natsu smirked at her. "I am already enjoying myself, sweetheart. Hurting you until my master comes back... is fun."

Lucy swallowed, her throat dry from all that screaming. Her eyes were glinstering, still hoping that he comes back.

Natsu chuckled. "Here, my present for you." He said and threw Lucy to the wall. She coughed up again, feeling the same pain as when she fought him.

Natsu was still in his menacing form, meaning not a day has passed by. Natsu was standing in the same spot, watching Lucy slowly stand up.

She breathed out calmly, making Natsu slightly surprised. "What are you waiting for?" Lucy asked, struggling to stand up straight. There was something different about her aura now. A soul so done with the world that even they won't let themselves be fucked over again.

Natsu leaned against the bars and crossed his legs. "Nothing, just wondering why in the world I agreed to make a contract."

Lucy tried to grab the wall or something that helped her stand up. She found a stick and used it for support. Then she walked to where Natsu stood.

A look of surprise consumed him, not expecting it. After a while Lucy stood infront of Natsu. "Because I remind you of my mother, the one who was there for you. You think I can do the same job she did."

It seems like that angered Natsu and he grabbed Lucy's throat. A hatred in his eyes and his claws around Lucy's throat. Lucy felt her airway slightly being blocked.

"Don't you ever disrespect Layla Heartfilia with your bullshit. She was thousand times better than you'll ever be."

Lucy was soon released and she ended up coughing. She knew it, only she and her friends were bad in his eyes. The man controls his thoughts and body, but he can't control the people who played an important role in the past.

Lucy was quick and kneeled Natsu in a his crotch. He immediately broke down and grabbed it. She stole her keys from his pocket and ran away.

Or at least, tried to run. With her bruises and scratches she didn't get far. It wasn't a few minutes before she heard Natsu running behind her, cursing himself for being taken off guard.

She didn't get far before Natsu caught her.

He was beyond furious and held her painfully tight. "You bitch." Lucy hissed from the pain, but Natsu didn't loosen his grip.

Natsu was interrupted from snapping Lucy's arm by an explosion. His eyes narrowed in confusion, but Lucy immediately relaxed in his hold. This didn't go unnoticed by Natsu, but he didn't give it much thought.
