Can't Shake The Beating

Rem awoke in chains, he saw other magic eaters in the room also in chains. They were seated in a circle, the room looked like some kind of rec center. He saw motivational posters on the wall and the ground was carpet. Whatever he'd been sedated with had a nasty hang over, his head was ringing from pain, it was in fact what woke him up. The rest of the magic eaters were also equally awake, though some of them looked to have been tortured. Rem was not surprised they had taken his weapon while he was asleep, but he had hoped briefly they had left it.

"Got you too Rem?" Rem couldn't make out who said that, between the blood and throat damage the man was almost unrecognizable. On top of that Rem never exactly hung around with the other magic eaters in a clear state of mind so he didn't really know most of them by name.

"Yeah though it looks like I got the better of it so far."

"Just wait they'll come for you too, I don't even know what they want, so far they just drag us in there and swing for the fences."

"With magic or without it?"

"Without, just a big dude punching, never seen him before, thought it was the Boss but someone else said he's dead." Rem tried to process what he was being told, but it wasn't lining up at all. Who would take magic eaters just to beat them? Rem was confused as to the whole enterprise. Though he didn't have long to wait before the large man picked up his chair and brought him to a smaller rectangular room.

"So you want to talk first or?" Rem's question was met with a fist to the face, and the rest of the conversation continued like that until he passed out from pain.
