Lucy's pov

The feeling of my body...it feels numb... darkness was soon replaced by a dim light of a candle, burning the wax into liquid.

"What happened?Where am I?"

Foot steps started to make a loud echo down the cement stairs, I quickly reach for Tauru' s key when I feel nothing but an empty pocket.

"Looking for these mi' lady?" My stare quickly turns into a glare as the black haired man holds all my keys and my whip.

The man chuckled once I tried lunge forward to retrieve what's mine,and soon brought back to the old brick wall. The chains cuffed on my wrist started to suck my magic away.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you. You see, those chains are cuffed on you so no magic can be brought within yourself ,oh and the more you struggle the more it devours your magic"

"Why the hell am I chained up for?! I came here on my own choice!"

"You see, what you call surrendered is what Natsu calls prisoner of war" he says as he swings the loop of my key hole.

"Your crazy! There was no war-"

"But what he calls prisoner of war is what I call his future wife~"

Million of shades of red dusted my cheeks,what's wrong with this man?!

"I'd have to be dumb enough to marry him"

He said something under his breath and chuckled. If I recall, this man is named Zeref, the cursed boy and the creator of the book of Zeref, a book filled with demonds.

He came more near the cell doors, his pale fingers reached down to his pocket with a rufle sound and took out a different set of keys.

"I mean, once I think about it, it doesn't look good as a first meeting  if a brother in law haves her sister in  law locked down here like a slave." He says as the key in his hands opens the gates, and with a click of his finger the chains on me disappear.

I stare at my marked wrist, a hand was placed on mine and pulled me up, making me hit zeref's chest like if we were hugging.

My checks started to heat up once he rapped his arms around my waist.

"ZEREF!"

From the stairs, the demond stood there, anger written all over his face towards the scene.

His cold eyes met with mine, like if he gave me a signal to get away from the black haired mage.

"Ah, Natsu, what brings you down here?" I looked up to see Zeref smirking his ass off by the angry tone of the pink haired.

"You knew I was coming down here so why ask"

"Well it seemed like the right thing to say"

"You don't even know the meaning of right"

"It's true" he paused, his eyes shot at the pink haired while making his grip tighter on me. "But I'm sure we both don't know that meaning, isn't it true,brother?"

More silence seems too fill the room, but it doesn't feel like a peaceful one, more like a silence of a war between the two and I'm in the middle of it.

Natsu was speechless, meaning he knew what he meant by Zeref's words.

"I'm going to my room" he grumnled and stomped back up the stairs leaving Zeref and me alone once again.

"Seems like he still can't get over that lump in his heart"

"For the mean while. I will show you towards your room, unfortunately, you cannot leave the room till has passed an hour because dinner will be served."

I nodded,if I didn't do what he says who knows what will will happen.

As he dragged me up the stairs and into the red with black room with big giant windows that give a view to a garden filled with plants.

"No.Do not think of trying to convince me to leave you at the garden, you must stay at the room and then after dinner you can do whatever you want."

This Zeref guy is weird, at the alley he seemed so...childish, then down at the basement he was serious in a way that could bring a odd feeling, and now his voice sounds stressed like if he was pulling a winning little kid.

All the hallways started to look the same that is felt like a maze in this giant place.

With a little bit of stairs, we finally made it to a wooden door.  He opened the door and let me in first.

The room is enormous, i'm surprised its not the living room. 

 "See you in an hour mi lady " he said and lock the door shut with a click. Now that I'm alone.....how can I escape.

I checked every place in this room, to windows all the way in the air vents, but every exit had bars or magic that burns.

"I feel like a caged Bird"

An hour later~
With natsu in 3rd pov.~

The dragon slayer passed through all the hallways, stomping like he was stomping that no for good brothers face with his shoes.

He didn't like the fact Zeref has gotten him in this state of anger.

More importantly, he felt like he was going to lose his mind just by thinking of the look the celestial mage gave him.

"Oh brother of mine~ I find it wonderful you're thinking about me! Though I don't like the fact that your stomping the red carpet like if it was my face."

Natsu whipped his head towards Zeref, seeing his pleased face made his blood boil.

"What do you want" he hissed, clenching his fist together to the point it might change color.

"Oh nothing~ I just wanted to let you know I put my sister in law in her room instead of a dirty cell."

"WHAT!!"

"What's wrong dear brother" in a second, Zeref was thrown towards a wall while Natsu blocked every escaped routes he had.

"Number one, who the hell gave you the permission to move the prisoner of war-"

"You mean your future wife" Zeref interrupted.

"Yes My future wife to another- hey!"

Zeref chuckled a bit but it made natsu push him more towards the wall, if that would be even possible.

"Listen, you better not even touch her, understand" he warned, more like commanded.

Zeref is the only one who knew Natsu's whole past, meaning he also knows how much that celestial spirit means to him, even if Natsu can't remember much of his pasts hes soon unraveling it, slowly.

"Oh, I won't dare to touch her" Zeref fake gasps with a hint of sarcasm.

He soon made the same smoke from before appear again, making his body disappear from the corner Natsu had gotten him into.

" But that doesn't mean I can't have fun with her"

Before Natsu could land a punch on his brother he had already disappeared with the smoke.

Not far from there, Zeref had made an entrance in the room Lucy was locked in, seeing her searching a way to escape.

"My,my. And here I was giving you a better room than a dirty cell, seems like you need some punishment"

Lucy jumped by his voice and slowly backed away, the black mage snaped his fingers, then appeared purple chains in her wrist and neck.

With no mercy, he turned on the magical chains, bringing yells of pain to the celestial mage.
