Prolonged Torture
It comes entirely unexpected: the sound of metal clashing on metal, followed by a scream of furious denial.
Touda reluctantly opens his eyes to see two sharp blades close to his face. Souryuu has stopped Suzaku's sword short of decapitating the serpent.
"This is not what Tsuzuki wanted!" The dragon tells the angry phoenix. He doesn't sound happy at the prospect of letting Touda live, though.
Secretly, the serpent hopes that Suzaku won't let this keep her from killing him anyway. He doesn't look forward to returning to his old cell.
But when have they ever asked about Touda's wishes?
