Chapter 50

Lucy Heartphilia is the fifthtieth chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Full Summary
Seeing Makarov incapacitated, Fairy Tail loses their fighting spirit but Phantom Lord gains more confidence. Seeing this, Erza orders Fairy Tail to retreat. No one wants to leave, but she persuades them to. While leaving, Natsu hears Gajeel and Aria chat about Lucy’s kidnapping, and quickly takes a hostage himself, in order to learn where the Lucy is. The Phantom guy doesn’t want to speak, but Natsu has his ways of making people talk. He tells Natsu of their headquarters, and Natsu goes there immediately.

In the Phantom Lord headquarters, Lucy awakes, bound and left in a prison. Jose Porla arrives and the two have a charming conversation. Jose offers her better conditions, but Lucy wants to know about the reason of Phantom’s attack. Jose states that it’s just a passing effect, and tells her that it was actually her Father who ordered her kidnapping, and the destruction of Fairy Tail was just an added Bonus. Lucy is devastated to hear this, and screams that she will never go back. She demands to be released because… she has to go to the bathroom. Jose thinks this tricks are laughable, but when she insists, he gives her a bucket. Lucy pretends to strip,and when Jose turns around, she kicks him there. He is instantly incapacitated, and Lucy tries to leave, but sees she is kept in a sky prison. Unwilling to go home, and trusting her life into Natsu’s hands, she jumps off the cell. Their friendship is so strong that she actually felt him approaching, and it is actually Natsu who saves her. She reaches ground safe and sound. Natsu then bickers with Happy, on whether to go home or not, and in this moment Lucy starts to cry, telling him it is her fault all this happened. However, she still wants to be on the guild, because she loves it. Natsu is convinced by this, and leaves.

Meanwhile, Jose, still hurting, swears vengeance on Lucy, and shows his true face, one of pure Evil.
