Draco was lifted from her hiding place by Pantherlilly. Draco struggled to get out of his grip when Gajeel showed her the toy she had dropped and started talking to her,<span style="font-style: italic">"Now what the hell were you thinking? Dragon Slayers don't run away from their problems. They stand their ground like the powerful Wizards they are! You think your Dad beat Zeref up by high tailing it?" He then sighed. "Speaking of him, he's really really glum. All he does is sit and cry. Uncle Gajeel wants him back up on his feet damnit!"</span>Draco already had tears starting to drip down her face when Pantherlilly said,<span style="font-style: italic">"Running away like that is NOT the Fairy Tail way!"</span>Before he threw a chop on her head and Gajeel fussed at him for doing that because he could have knocked her out. Before Gajeel got to put the restraints on, she used her escape artist skills to get out of Pantherlilly's grip and stood in front of her Uncle Gajeel trembleing violently, she said, "That's easy for you to say... It's easy for everyone to say that running away isn't the answer and that facing your problems is the best thing to do. I know my Daddy beat Zeref and I know he didn't beat him by running away but he didn't have to live over half of his life seeing all the horrible things that his enemies did every time he closed his eyes! He didn't get tortured to the point that having his eye ripped out of his skull doesn't even hurt!! He doesn't see a<span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">monster</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold">EVERY SINGLE TIME HE SEES HIS REFLECTION</span>!!!! HE DOESN'T HAVE TO WEAR A MASK TO KEEP PEOPLE FROM LOOKING AT HIM WITH FEAR OR PITY!!!!! HE DOESN'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT EVERY SINGLE DAY OF HIS LIFE!!!!!! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT<span style="font-weight: bold">DOES</span>!!!!!!!!" Draco then reached up and ripped her mask off her face to reveal a horrible sight. Her face was so pale it was like looking at a ghost, her left eye wasn't brown like the eyes she had been born with but instead it was the same shade of toxic green that Razor Callaghan's was, the area around her left eye looked like someone had been trying to gouge out her eye socket to rip her eye out before deciding it was too much of a hassle and surgically removed her eye and stitched up the cut in a way that showed whoever did it didn't care if it ever healed or not, and there were tears streaming down her face and her eyes were filled with a look of intense emotional pain and trauma. It was difficult for Levy to look at Draco's face without trying to look away, it was horrifying what had happened to Draco that resulted in her looking this way. Draco looked down crying and said, "I ran away to protect the guild from them. If they came to the guild and discovered I wasn't there and nobody knew where I was or how to find me, they would have let the guild be because they don't take hostages and the don't wast their time fighting people who don't have what they want. They would have just come to the guild and left it just as quickly as they came! I know this because I've seen him do it many times before! And the people he<span style="font-style: italic">does</span>fight never survives unless he finds that he has no use for them anymore. He KILLED the second strongest of the Ten Wizard Saints like it was NOTHING! And what he does to the bodies of his victims is too horrific for me to describe and I have to see it every single time it happens through<span style="font-style: italic">his</span>eyes." Draco then collapsed to the ground crying her eyes out. She was terrified of Razor Callaghan and what he would do to her friends and family if they got in his way and it was completely obvious. Draco felt Uncle Gajeel make bindings on her wrists and ankles so that she didn't run away again.<br/><br/>Draco was looking at the ground as Lily apologized to her for hitting her head. Draco didn't even show any signs of hearing the apology but her dull eyes were just looking at the ground without really seeing anything. Draco was lost within the depths of her mind as the headed home.<br/><br/>When they got back to the guild Lucy was overjoyed to see Draco back home safe but she was furious at her for running away like that and ruining her father's birthday. The hooded cloak that Draco had bought in the town up north was still on her body and the hood was pulled over to hide her face as she looked down. Her tears were falling on the floor of the guild and Draco had realized on the trip home how stupid she was to think that she could ever go back to how things were before all these horrible things happened. Draco now realized that only an idiot would truely believe things could go back to the way things were in the distant past.
