"TALK!" Leiji yelled, getting frustrated with the green haired mage, he had been questioning him for hours and he hasn't said a word. He has cut him, burnt him, pulled out fingernails, and even broke every bone on his right hand. He was slowly running out of ideas. Damn the council for not wanting me to use deadly force he thought.
Then suddenly a thought struck him, the water basin in the corner of the room! He smiled again, tearing a cloth of fabric from his cloak he filled a jug with water. Holding the cloth over Freed's nose and mouth he poured the water over the rune mage. "You'll talk soon enough!" He said gleefully.
oOo
Meanwhile Bickslow's babies arrive back at the guild, "Found him! Found him!" they called. "Well? Where is he then?" Laxus called, annoyed with the stupid puppets.
"They say he's with the Magic Council. What's he doing there?" Bickslow said.
"Hurt him! Hurt him!" The puppets yelled.
"WHAT? I'll get those stupid council members. I'll run some lightning through their ass, see how well they're doing after that." Laxus stormed of, closely followed by Erza, Evergreen and Bickslow.
They hurried through the streets of Magnolia, following the flying puppets towards the Magic Council.
The guards were no match against Laxus and his rage as they hurried through the building, hurrying to save their wayward captain.
oOo
"Still nothing?" Leiji panted, "What's fairy Tail's weakness? Tell me!"
"I won't tell you anything, so you might as well kill me." Freed answered, his voice hoarse.
Leiji picked up Freed's sword, "Well then, might as well. Maybe this is all your puny guild needs to destroy itself." He raised he sword and swung.
oOo
Laxus and Erza hurried through the hallways as Bickslow and Evergreen took care of the guards and Councilmembers.
The puppets suddenly stopped flying in front of a heavily bolted metallic door. Erza scoffed, "As if that will stop me." And with that she kicked down the door, taking a piece of the wall with it.
Suddenly they were faced with a horrifying scene. A man standing over Freed, who was tied to a chair, holding Freed's own sword over him. Well not for long, as the man was immediately struck down by a massive amount of lightning and a couple of swords for good measure.
Paying no further attention to the man they then hurried over to Freed, untying him and freeing him from the collar.
"Freed, can you hear me?" Laxus called, cataloguing all his wounds.
"Laxus? Erza? You came?" Freed croaked, and then fainted, finally able to rest.
Erza then proceeded to bandage the worst of the wounds before letting Laxus pick him up and carry him back to the guild. Where they could take care of him better and where they won't ever let him leave their sight again.

Well, this is the end, sorry if it seemed a little rushed at some places, but torture isn't my thing. Injuries, yes, but full out torture, not my devision. Euhm, hope you liked it?
