Chapter 3: From Lost, To Found, To Lost Again
-x Previously x-
When I finished singing, everyone was clapping but when I looked up, I saw something I thought I'd never see again. Once I saw it, I whispered my water barrier then bolted towards the guild hall. Frick!!!! Not again!!!! PLEASE NOT AGAIN!!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-x Now x-
I heard my sisters and my friends yelling my name. I wanted to go back to them, but I can't when the guild hall is in danger and the barrier won't hold for long, so I gotta make this quick. When I got there I saw the guild hall being exploded by the treacherous people who were once my 'masters'. They didn't see me right away from my hideout in the bushe so I quickly covered my guild mark, its scent and mine, so they couldn't sniff it out. I saw the one who had the most bombs left and smirked to myself behind the bushes. "Hahahaha this is the funniest thing I've done in years!!!!! We shou--", he was cut by his teammate(the one with most bombs) aiming a bomb at him. "H-hey! What are you doing!", the target yelled at the 'traitor'. "I-I don't know! My body's moving by itself! I can't move it the way I want to! Hel-- OW", the 'traitor' screamed as I used my right hand to make him slap himself. His guild mates ran towards him, inspecting him to see what's wrong. I saw a girl among them and I smirked, placing a curse on her too. With my left hand, I made her slap him too while I struggled to keep my giggling in as I blocked the telepathic waves so no one could hear my thoughts. Just think sad thoughts, only think of sad thoughts, I thought to myself as I stiffened my face up. When it was just getting good, I felt my water barrier break along with a hand over my mouth after I let out a startled yelp. So they finally caught me, huh? At least I changed my clothes before so if I'm lucky, I might not get found out, I thought to myself worriedly. I turned around and saw my old 'master's' guard but my sisters and my friends running towards me and I unblocked the telepathic waves but only for the group.
Telepathy Conversation:
Me: Guys! Go.now!!! It isn't safe here for you!!!
Addie: Lilac, I think I speak for Skylar when I say that there is no way in hell that I would EVER leave you again when I can do something!
Me: Addie, I'll be fine, ok? I-I can handle it, just like I have before....
Lucy: OH HELL NAW!!! Though I've only known you for a short amount of time, I feel like your already apart of the family! Therefore, we have to protect you!!!!
Everyone: YEA!!!!!
Me: GUYS!!!! STOP!!!! THIS WILL ONLY MAKE IT WORSE!!!! PLEASE, JUST GO AND GET AWAY FROM HERE!!!! PLEASE!!!!! THIS IS ALREADY HARD ENOUGH!!!! DON'T MAKE ME PUT UP ANOTHER BARRIER!!!!! Please, j-just....just stay away and get out of here!!! I don't want to be the reason for you all getting hurt!
Natsu: NO!!! WE'RE NOT LEAVING YOU!!! NOT WITH TARTAROS!!! They'll kill you!!! We're going to save you, rather you like it or not!!!
Me: Please! If I do die, then live on for me because I'll always be in your hearts and plus, I'll finally see my mom and dad again......
Skylar: Sis!! No, wait!!! Don't--
I turn off the telepathic waves and whisper, "Earth and water, give me your strength. Guide me to your calm, peaceful nature. Open thy heart, show me the way. Flowing streams of the Earth, flow around thyself. Earth's streams: barrier!" A barrier appears around the group, which is wearing worried and sad expressions, I frown and mouth 'I'm sorry' to them. "Well well well, look what the cat dragged in", Jackal grinned evilly. "I don't know. Cats can't carry drag anything that's over it's weight. So what exactly did the cat drag in", I said innocently. "You know what?-", started a frustrated Jackal. "No, I don't know What. Maybe you can introduce me to them?", I say, making him even more annoyed. "Ugh I'm done with you!!!-", said a very irritated Jackal only to be interrupted by me again. "Since your done with me, I see no point in me staying here any longer so if you could just let me go, then I'll be on my way", I say to Jackal, whose pretty much on verge of raging now. "UGH YOUR SO ANNOYING but I don't have to worry about you, because your so dead!!", said a very pissed off Jackal. "Umm check again, bub; because I'm pretty sure I'm still alive, not dead. Geez, your so dense!!", I say sarcastically. "UGHHHHHHHHHHH I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH--", Jackal screams but soon falls to the ground then jumps up into the air and face plants again; he keeps doing this, a pleasure to do by yours truly, until he looks like he's going to murder everyone in Fiore until.....
"SIS/LILAC!!!!!", the group screams as the barrier fades and they run towards me. "Oh??? Lilac??? I didn't even notice it was you until your little friends here ratted you out!!!", Jackal smirks evilly. "Guys, seriously!!!!!! YOU BLEW MY COVER!!!! Now Natsu's definitely right, so I guess I'll see you in the after life..........IF I GET CAUGHT!!!!!", I exclaim, making Jackal do the exact same thing as I block the group in yet another barrier. "SERIOUSLY LILAC!!!!", they yell at me, frustrated and worried. I continue making Jackal look like the fool he is but I feel hands on my shoulders and someone putting a rag over my nose and mouth. Oh that's right, I completely forgot about the 2 other guys who came with them, I think to myself as I slowly loose consciousness into a cold, dark dreamless sleep.
-x TIME SKIP: A Few Hours Later At Tartaros' Bar x-
I woke up in a cold, dark room with a tiny window near the ceiling. I'm back here again, huh, I thought to myself. My thoughts were interrupted by Jackal coming in, holding a knife. "So, your awa-", he starts when I interrupt him. "Look, I know exactly what your going to do to me so don't waste your breath", I say emotionlessly. "Well, shall we begin? Yes? Alright then!", he sailed, smirking as he starts cutting me on the legs, arms, and face. When he's finally done, he says with a smirk, "Tomorrow, the next spot will be your stomach. In 2 days, it'll be your heart". When he leaves the room, I start to tear up.
-x MEANWHILE: With The Group (Addie's POV) x-
"Lilac..........", I say sadly. "We're coming for you, don't worry", I sob quietly, then I feel a hand on my shoulder as a sign of comforting. "Hey.....it's ok! She'll be ok! You know Lilac, she never gives up without a fight!!! Have a little faith in her!!!", Natsu says giving me his signature grin. "Y-yea.... I guess your right...... I'm going to go to the lake to clear my head", I said, giving him as much as a smile as I could then walked over to the pond. I start thinking about me and Lilac's childhood together and remember a song we used to always sing together. I start singing it, hoping it'll make me feel better.
-x BACK TO LILAC x-
I think about my childhood before I became a slave and remember a song that me and Addie would sing when ever we were sad to cheer us up. I start singing, hoping it still works.
Both:
When mama said that it was ok
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was okay
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and makin fun
Cause we were good kids
Lilac:
Remember asking both my mom and dad
Why we never traveled to exotic lands
We only ever really visit friends
Nothing to tell when the summer ends
Addie:
We never really went buying clothes
Folks were passing the stuff in plenty loads
New pair of shoes once a year and then
Out to play ball so we could ruin them
Both:
When mama said that it was ok
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was okay
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and makin fun
Cause we were good kids
Addie:
Don't get me wrong I didn't have it bad
I got enough lovin from my mom and dad
But I don't think they really understood
When I said I wanted to deal in Hollywood
Lilac:
I told I be singing on TV
The other kids were calling me a wannabe
The other kids they started buggin me
But now they're all standing right in front of me (yeah)
Both:
Mama said that it was ok
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was ok
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and makin fun
Cause we were good kids
Lilac:
I know which place I'm from
I know my home
Addie:
When I'm in doubt or struggling
That's where I'll go
Lilac:
And old friend can give advice
Addie:
When new friends only know half the story
Both:
That's why I always keep them tight
And why I'm ok
I said I'm ok
Yeah
Oh oh oh oh
Mama said that it was ok
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was ok
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and makin fun
Cause we were good kids
My mama said that it was ok
Babada baba
Babada baba
Babada baba
My mama said that it was ok
Babada baba
Babada baba
Babada baba
My mama said that is was ok
-x Song Ends x-
-x Addie's POV x-
After I finished singing, I heard someone calling my name. "Addie-san! Come on, we're going to come up with a plan to get Lilac-san back!", my bluenette best friend, Juvia, called out to me. Hearing this, I gathered as much happiness as I could and shouted back, "I'm coming, Juvi-chan! I'm coming!" As I made my way slowly towards her, I thought back to this warm feeling that I had when I was singing the song. I guess she was in need of mom's song too, huh?, I thought to myself as me and Juvia walked back to the guild.
-x Meanwhile, With Lilac x-
I finished singing, only to be yelled at by one of the dark wizards holding a small, dark blue cat with white spotted fur. "Get in there, ya little pest! And Mudgirl, stop singing your worthless song!", the wizard yelled as he threw the small cat into the cell, causing it to hiss in pain because of the haste impact of the cold brick wall against its soft fur. Once I was sure the wizard was gone, I scrambled over to the kitten, who had unfortunately been knocked unconscious because of the impact on its small, fragile body. I picked it up and tried to clean off all the blood from its wounds. It look like it had put up a fight but was quickly loosing. I guess I should get some rest, I've got a long day tomorrow, I thought as my eyes shut and was soon surrounded by the cold darkness of sleep.
