⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀There was nothing but rough and injurious physical force, action and treatment. Made it to too much punches, as blood was splattering against the walls, floors, morally everywhere around the lock up.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Jellal was weakly lying on the floor while his wounds and scratches were bleeding to death. Oh, these chains that were wrapped around his ankles and wrists were causing annoyance to the blue haired mage, making him want to rip them off right away, but of course he couldn't, since it's himself.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Akuji and the others stared at him. It amused them joyfully to see Jellal catching his breath while he bears the agony that was keeping him active for now.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"It would be very upsetting if you would die here, without magic, Jellal." Akuji jerked, taking his whole hand to be surrounded by his green magic.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Jellal lifted his head toward them unsoundly. He was still conscious however, the other men suddenly and grabbed his two arms and grasped him tight so he can't move. Aggravation simply past through Jellal as he narrowed his eyebrows and growled.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Kuso. . . ," Jellal muttered angrily, wanting to break his neck the next second.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Akuji was about to launch the spell he had been assisting from earlier, until he heard something from outside that caught his attention. The men that were holding Jellal let him go and Akuji narrowed his eyes.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Rats squirming?" Akuji stormed out the lock up, disappearing into Jellal's sights as the men followed him stupidly.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀There was the chance that Jellal had to break free, taking his opportunity to untangle himself when unexpected, he felt a sudden pain.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀He saw Akuji peek back in the doorway, chuckling. "I knew you'll be planning to get out." Jellal clenched his teeth while heard the other men yell and also, to his surprise, he heard a huge blast come out of the blue.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀That blast also hit Akuji and Jellal, causing the chains to finally unbound him, as he stretched when he got up except with his legs complaining. The clouds from the explosion were still surrounding, all Jellal could see were two shadows standing the instant.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Aha, there goes my magic!"

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"That's just something normal you see everyday."

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Jellal left put a quick breath, seeing the shadows giving a high five. He realized who were these two, connecting with his knowledge and his observations; manlike voices, familiar actions.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Nani?" Jellal accidentally choked out quietly.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀The smoke disappeared and Jellal coughed before peeking who it actually was. He was not that all amazed on seeing two young man who had a grin on their faces, hitting the spotlight when the clouds escaped the scene.
