"Shit!" Ethan finally spoke, "how could we forget that?"
"I don't know," Lucy said quietly.
"How do we-?" Tommy started.
"We have to find a way to destroy it," Gray answered Tommy question.
"But how?"
"I don't know," Gray clenched his teeth, "that's why I said find a way."
"However we destroy it, we have to do it quickly," Scarlet said as she ran back in the room. She had went to go check on the flame.
"How big is the flame?" Gray asked as she walked up to him and stood beside him.
"Pretty big. The flame has filled most of the room."
"Fuck," Gray said under his breath, "come on then."
He ran to the other room where the flame was. The others followed. Scarlet sighed before running after the others.
When they got in the room, they saw the blue flame destroying everything in it. Gray looked around, quickly, almost in panic.
"Hey Scarlet," Lucy said.
Scarlet looked at her, "hmm?"
"Don't you have ice magic?"
"Yeah." Scarlet looked at Lucy weirdly, "where is this going?"
"Well, I was just thinking, could you put out the fire with your magic?"
"No," Gray answered sighing, "the only kind of magic that can put out that kind of fire," he said as he gestured towards the flame, "is water magic. And we don't have someone who can use water magic."
"Oh," Lucy said quietly. "But can't you control fire, Gray?"
Gray sighed, "they wouldn't be that stupid."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, The Black Rats wouldn't put a fire in here that I can control. They wouldn't do it."
"You never know. Maybe they want you to think that so you wouldn't try. Just try to put it out."
Gray sighed, "it won't work." He tried to put it out, but it only caused the flame to grow faster. Gray yelled at Lucy, "I told you it wouldn't work! They aren't that stupid! They are smarter than you think, Lucy!"
"You are just about as smart as them too!" She yelled back. "And there is what? Nine of them! And there is only one of you!"
"That means if I say it won't work, then there is a fucking high chance that it won't work! And if I say don't touch something, don't fucking touch it!"
"Gray, calm down," Scarlet sighed. "We don't need any fighting, we just need to get out of here."
"Fine," Gray breathed out.
"How are we going to put it out now?" Lucy asked.
"Guess we need to find another way to get rid of it," Ethan said, "since we don't have a water mage."
Gray remembered something, looked up and smile, "actually we do."
"What?" Scarlet asked, "no we-"
"Yes we do," Gray repeated, "when we were back at the cell, you guys were sleeping, I over heard Taylor and Trevor talking. They were talking about you, Lucy. Saying something about Lucy having powers. Taylor said she had water magic." He turned to Scarlet, "and this was after the fact that we figured she had magic."
Scarlet nodded, "even if that's true she still doesn't know how to use it."
"Yeah there's that," Gray trailed off.
