"Alright Salamander let's make a deal you tell me to want I want to know and I will let your friends live, and I don't just mean the ones here with us I mean I will let the ones coming and the ones already here go," Satoshi said

"I told you I can't tell you…" Natsu said his voice was low and his head was bowed.

"What a shame." He said once again pushing a button making Natsu scream. "I did not think you would be this stubborn." He sighed "tell me does the fairy tail know about your past?" that one question made Natsu freeze memories flooded his mind and his eyes widened.

"How do you know…"

"I guess not." He sighed again. "what would they think if they knew what you have done?"

"…Shut up…" Satoshi pushed the button again.

"My patience is running thin, tell me to want I want to know; tell me everything about fairy tail, about the enchanted forest, about Zeref, about the dragons and about the tragedy of Twulmid." Natsu's eyes stayed blank.

"Why?" Natsu asked he honestly didn't have the strength anymore to yell or pretend he didn't know anything.

"What?"

"Why do you want to know?"

"Because I am in search for true power and in knowing these things I will be closer to finding the one magic… so tell me" Satoshi looked at the beaten form of Natsu knowing he was so close to getting want he wanted but he was so far away. Natsu shook his head

"Knowledge isn't everything too much knowledge can also be a curse," Natsu said still not looking at the guild master in the eyes and his voice was hoarse. Satoshi really had enough with this he turned up the power to 100% and slammed his hand on the button Natsu's screams fill the entire building and this time they sounded more like a wounded dragon's roar then a human scream. When the pain stopped Natsu's body fell forward complete limp smoke coming off his broken form.

"Do you think that was a little much?" said one of the dark guild members as she walked into the room "you could have killed him."

"No that would not have killed him; he's too strong for that." Satoshi sighed "I don't know what I am going to do he is harder to break then I thought." He said to himself then he turns to face the female that had walked in. "What is it that you want Wisteria?"

"I wanted to inform you that the group of wizards that are outside is starting to disarm are security in the woods." She said. She was a beautiful woman with her hair in two braids one was white and the other black her eyes were silver and lips were black she wore a brown dress that was lined with black and white fur.

"Are they close?"

"Not yet they are still on the outskirts but they are making progress." She said giving a small smile "would you like us to take care of them?"

"No… but I do you what to ready the weapon I have decided to test in it on the wizards outside." She smiled

"And what of the wizards we captured?"

"I will deal with them later; just make sure they can't get out to join their friend or rescue the Salamander." He said to begin to walk out but was stopped when he wasn't being followed.

"What is it?" he asked when he saw her looking at the bloody body of the Salamander.

"Oh, it's nothing… it's just" she said not even looking at her master

"What is it spit it out." He said not in the mood to play her games.

"I heard so many stories about him; it's just hard to believe that this is the same man. He looks so weak right now."

"Yes, well his body might be weak but his will, unfortunately, is not." He sighed.

"Would you like me to try?" she asked again walking up to Natsu picking up his head and brushing away some hair.

"No, that would be necessary; I need you to protect him from his friends if they come for him." The said turning again to leave this time he was followed.

Outside with the other teams

"Did you hear that?" Sting asked as everyone paused in their work to look at the white dragon slayer.

"Hear what?" Lucy asked getting scared that something was going to attack him.

"Wendy!" Carla screamed drawing the attention to her. Wendy had fallen to her knees her eyes were wide in terror, and she was shaking.

"N-Natsu" she barely managed to say.

"What happened has the screaming started again?" Erza asked

"Yeah… but this one was different… Natsu is in a lot of pain right now." Rouge said

"What do you mean? What's happening?" Happy said tears in his eyes

"I don't know but that scream just now sounded… it sounded like a dying dragon." Sting said everyone's eyes widened at Sting's words they all looked into the darkness of the forest hoping to see what was going on but not having any luck.

"Does that mean he's dea-" Lucy started but couldn't finish.

"No, I can't Flame-brain has kicked the bucket already not when we are so close," Gray said but he had the same thought in the back of his mind.

"We should pick up the pace if we hope to save everyone before it is too late," Jura said everyone nodded and begin working to find all the traps and disable them but no matter how fast they worked it was still going too slow. All of them were getting anxious as their worst fears played tricks on their minds.

With Romeo's team

"I didn't like the sound of that last one," Macao said.

"I can't believe it! I was so close to Natsu I could hear his voice but I couldn't see him I couldn't help him." Romeo said tears streaming down his face.

"Romeo, it wasn't your fault," Yukino said trying to comfort the crying mage.

"What is taking everyone so long to get here?" Chelia asked

"Do you think they ran into so trouble?" Eve asked thinking the worst

"I don't know… they could be fighting up there." Bixlow said

"They will be coming for us I know it," Sherry said trying to get everyone's hopes up when the metal doors opened again and four men walked in and lastly Akihiro walked in closing the door behind him.

"What not smart remarks." One of the men asked smirking.

"W-where's Natsu?" Romeo asked

"I would not worry about him anymore." Akihiro said and the group eyes widened thinking that they killed Natsu. "we have some questions for you and if you answer them you won't get hurt." He said as he pulled up a chair and sat in front of the door.

"What makes you think we will tell you anything?" Bixlow said trying to get everyone behind him.

"First question; how many wizards are coming here?" Akihiro asked ignoring Bixlow's question.

"Why the hell would we tell you?" Yukino asked but instead of answering one of the four men grabbed her by the hair and throw her to the ground and started kicking her as everyone else scream for them to stop.

"This is how it is going to go if you don't answer my questions one of you gets hurt; understand." He said as the guy backed off and Yukino groaned in pain as Chelia went over to her.

"You can hurt us all you want we are not going to tell you anything," Macao said trying to keep his voice steady. The same process went on for a while so now all of them were beaten and laying on the floor barely conscious.

"This was a waste of time." Akihiro sighed "Max, go tell the master and ask him what he would like us to do." He said and the one named Max bowed and ran out of the call.

"As for the rest of you," he paused and then smiled "it time to get ready for a bloodbath." He said and the three men laughed knowing what that meant they walked out of the room. Before Akihiro left he turned to face the captive mages.

"There is no hope for you, that little dragon slayer that you had to warn your friend will turn out to be a mistake. You have sent your friend to their death and now I hope you see that you should have left the Salamander to his fate and maybe you all could have lived a little longer." With that, he walked out of the cell locking the door behind him.

I hope you liked the chapter I know it was a little short but the next chapter will be long and full of battles.
