Coming Back

The next day

🔑Lucy's P.O.V🔑

I woke up at nine in the morning and got ready to leave. I wore practically the same thing as yesterday, but I wore a jacket over my shirt. By the time I was ready, it was 9:45.

"I'm leaving now dad! See you later tonight!" I called.

"Bye Lucy!" He shouted back. I grabbed the car keys and got into the car.

I got there fast and walked up to the gate guard.

"I'm here for visiting hours!" I called up. He nodded and opened the gates. As I walked in, the inmates did their usual banging on bars. I ignored them all and continued walking, remembering all of the hallways I has to go down.

"Who are you visiting today? It's not your turn for Sting yet." The same passing guard as yesterday said.

"Well, I'm not here for my brother. I'm visiting Natsu Dragneel." I said. The guard and all the surrounding inmates went dead silent, and I didn't know why.

"How do you even know about him?" The guard wheezed.

"I just do. Now, let me see him." I said. The guard nodded and took me the rest of the way to the dark hallway with a single light.

"N-N-Nat-su... S-sir!" The guard squeaked. There was silence, but I saw the sillohuete of Natsu sitting in the same spot as yesterday.

"Y-y-you have a-a visitor."

"Are you implying that I'm blind?" Natsu said coldly. 

"N-no! Why w-would you s-say that?!" The guard stuttered, stepping back.

"Because I can clearly see see my visitor, yet you had to say that I had one."

"S-sorry!" The guard said, then scurried off. As I watched him run off, I heard shuffling coming from behind. I turned around and saw Natsu standing against the bars.

"Why is everyone here terrified of you? I mentioned your name and everyone went silent." I asked, walking closer to the cell.

"Well first off..." He said, stretching out his hand for me to take. Without a thought, I touched his hand, but quickly took it back.

"I burn anyONE I touch. AnyTHING I touch will not burn." He said.

"OK, I get why that's scary, but that's not convincing enough for me to be terrified."

"No, it's not, but to your brother, it scares the crap out of him."

"I wouldn't doubt that." I smirked. 

"I would tell you why, but you'd be as terrified as everyone else."

"You sure about that?" I said.

"If you really want to know, then you'd have to find a way to stay after visiting hours. And that's nearly-"

"DONE!" I said smiling.

"Done with what? You haven't moved from that one spot." He said.

"I disabled the cameras on this section and signed myself out, am while you were talking." I explained.

"Oh, so you have speed as a side magic." He said.

"Yeah, it's useful, but I don't really use it. Plus, it only works at random times, and luckily now was one of those times. Anyways, I'm going to be here until eleven. Then I need to to home." I said.

"Fine by me. So, how's public school?" He asked, leaning against the bars.

"Do you not go?" I asked surprised.

"Not since seventh grade. I've been prison schooled since then."

"Would they let you back out for public school?"

"If I went with someone to watch me, then they probably would. But until then, no." He said, ending in a sarcastic way.

"Hmmm... Maybe I can help you with that." 

We kept talking about random stuff, but I'm pretty sure we spent five hours just making fun of sting.

Sooner then expected though, the prison was closed.
