Last time:
"BWT?"
Une noted the quiver of fear that Usagi's voice contained.
"Brain Wave Transmitter. Very effective in such cases
when our guests don't answer our questions readily. It won't hurt… not much
anyway," Treize shrugged casually, as if it were an everyday thing to do.
"Right away, Treize-sama," Une saluted him before doing
as told.
"Oh Kami, what have I gotten myself into?!" Usagi asked
herself after her captors untied her and left her in the darkness of her cell.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usagi screamed in pain as yet another current of
electricity was sent through her small frame. This had been going on for the past
hour now, but still she refused to give in. She had managed to stop herself from
crying out half an hour earlier, but now the pain was almost unbearable.
"Still refuse to talk? Well, we still have plenty of time
ahead of us," Treize told her as she fought to stay conscious. They were the only
ones in the room besides the technician who ran the BWT machine and Lady Une.
"And if you refuse to give us the information even then, the
BWT has many other uses…" Une smirked as Usagi paled at these words. "It's a brainwasher
as well as a torture device. It would be such fun to watch you kill your beloved
pilots by your own hands wouldn't it?'
"Now, now Lady Une. It won't do to scare our guest like that.
But I do think that those Gundams will be here soon for their little friend." Treize
nodded. "Increase the intensity of the electrical current," he ordered the technician
with them. "Now, where is Zechs? He was here just a while ago…"
"He's outside sir. He said he couldn't bear to see a lady
in pain. He's too much of a gentle man at times!" Une retorted with disgust.
"It's quite all right, Lady Une. Remember, he does have his
honor as the "Lightning Baron" after all," the leader of Oz soothed.
Usagi gave another agonized yell as the torture began again.
Bolts of miniature lightning danced around her body as the machine sent current
after current of electricity through her.
Outside, Zechs clenched his hands tightly into fists. He may
have no feelings for this girl pilot, but he did pity her. No woman should go through
this, Gundam pilot or not. Yet he could do nothing. He sighed and continued to wait
for his superior's orders.
"You know what the splendid thing about the BWT is? The electrical
shocks aren't so powerful as to kill, but just enough to… persuade other to talk,"
Treize voice made Usagi's eyes open. He smirked.
"Treize, sometimes I think you're a sadistic bastard," Usagi
managed through clenched teeth.
"How dare you!" Une scowled, slapping the nearly unconscious
girl.
"Quatre… I don't know how much more I can take of this… NO!
I must be strong… for Quatre and the others, as well as the colonies… I can't… give
up…" Usagi's thoughts were cut short as pain surged through her. She cried out once
more before passing out.
"It seems she has fainted, sir," Une observed as she slumped
forward in her seat.
"So she has. I must say I'm impressed. No one has ever held
out this long. She shall make a fine addition to our troops don't you think?" Without
waiting for an answer, he continued. "Have Zechs take our guest to her chambers
and her wounds treated. It won't do if she will pass out like this tomorrow during
our next chat."
"As you wish, sir," Une bowed before leaving to fetch Zechs.
Quatre stumbled as a flash of pain struck him without warning.
He gave a strangled cry as he fell to his knees in the middle of the hangar where
he had been making plans with his friends.
"Yo buddy, you okay there?" Duo looked down at him, concern
apparent in his cobalt blue eyes.
"I… I don't know. I hurt all over for some reason… Ahh!" Quatre
yelled in pain as he wrapped his arms around his body as if to shield himself. It
was almost like it was someone else's pain… Someone whom he shared strong bonds
with… Usagi!
"Quatre? What's wrong?" Trowa knelt down next to his friend.
"Usa… Something's happening to Usa!" whispered the blonde
boy, horror-struck.
Note: What did you think?
