POV: Lucy

"Come on will you calm down?" Loke asked me as he watched me pace back and forth across the room. Thinking to myself trying to figure out what to do.

"No! I can't. No one is supposed to know about that. And now Natsu knows." I responded. "And now, I have no idea where he went! He wasn't in fourth or fifth class, and I'm freaking out!" I told him. "And how are you so calm right now?"

"Because maybe this is for the best. Maybe he can get you help." Loke said as he stood up and walked over to where I was pacing.

"No, you know what happened last time we tried that." I said looking at him and he looked at the floor. "It didn't work out well for anyone last time."

"But what if this time is different?" He asked me.

"What do you mean?" I asked as I continued to pace.

"What if you being here at Fairy Tail changes things?" Loke asked me.

"I don't think it will." I said, and sat down.

"Well what if it does?" Loke pushed. "And let me tell you this, you haven't been around here long enough to see that they will do whatever it takes to take care of family."

"I still don't think so." I said as I bent over and put my face in my hands. "Besides, why would they consider me family?" Loke walked over and sat down next to me.

"Because you are part of this Academy, you are one of the many things that help make Fairy Tail, well Fairy Tail." Loke said. "If something was to happen to you, they would do whatever it would take to make sure you were okay."

"Why would anyone do that for a rich man's little brat?" I asked.

"Because you're proving to them everyday that you are much more than that." Loke said and placed his hand on my back, making me flinch. "Sorry, I forgot about that." He said as I sat up.

"It's okay. It's the thought that counts." I said as I smiled at him.

"Do you feel better?" He asked me.

"No." I said as I looked at the ground.

"You should, because it's true." Loke told me as he stood up. "They really love you."

"I doubt that." I said and Loke ruffled my hair.

"Well school is almost out, how about you head home? And get some rest, you've had a long day." He said giving up for the moment on trying to convince me that what he was saying was true.

"Yeah, and I feel like it's only going to get longer." I said as I packed up my things into my backpack, and Loke headed back to the Celestial Spirit World. Right as the bell rang I walked out the door and down the street towards the path in the woods.

'God what happens if Natsu tells someone? Or he goes to the police? Then they'll do their usual and it'll all go downhill from there! Or where ever it takes place! Here, there, doesn't really matter I'm fucked either way!'

I got on the path a few minutes later and started making my way home from there and the entire time, I stared at the ground. When I finally got to the gate I looked up at my father's office window to see him standing there waiting for me. I took a deep breath and walked passed the gate and into the house. Once I closed the door, Spetto started to walk up to me.

"He wants to see me, doesn't he?" I asked.

"I'm afraid so." Spetto said softly. I closed my eyes and then walked up the stairs and towards my dad's office. I knocked on the door and waited for him to invite me in.

"Come in." I heard him say.

"You wanted to see me?" I asked as I opened the door.

"I did." He said as he still faced the window. "I need you to turn around." He told me, and I did what he said. Then I felt excruciating pain on my back and I fell to the ground on my knees. I covered my mouth with my hands in order to not scream out in pain. "Remove your hands! I want to hear you scream!" The pain returned and I did as he said and removed my hands, as I started to cry. And he continued to whip me again, and again.

"Please stop." I whispered as I fell to the ground. Holding the cloth, that I used to call a shirt, in my arms. And was now nothing was covering my back at all, even my bra was no longer surrounding my chest, for it had been cut by the whip.

"What was that?" My father asked. "Did you just tell me what to do?"

"No." I answered.

"Shut up." He yelled as he whipped me one more time on the back. I screamed and another tear fell from my eye. I was so tired that I felt like I was soon to pass out.

'I've lost to much blood. I don't think I can move.'

I tried to sit up but only to end up back in the ground. And then I heard the unpleasant clanking of his belt, and the awful sound of a zipper. But before anything could happen I heard the sound of glass breaking, and all I saw was darkness.
