Description
Arisa opened the door with her gun at the ready, blood was soaking the back of her shirt but she refused to rely on us. The hostages were inside, she breathed a sigh of relief before motioning for us to join her. "Untie them all, I'll clear the stairwell." She ordered calmly before turning toward the door. My hand moved on its own catching her small wrist. "Why don't you let us take care of that, you're injured." Her glare was frightening, "I know my limits, I'm nowhere near them. Please release me or I shall consider this an act of aggression toward an officer of the law and will be forced to subdue you." "Yikes." Hizashi chuckled and wandered off to untie the hostages. "Consider it whatever you want, it's reckless for you to try and clear the entire building in your current condition." I shot back at her. "You have to the count of three to let go." She hissed. "I don't understand, is it pride, are you trying to prove something here?" "One." I stared down at her in disbelief. Why was she being so stubborn? "Two." "Arrest me, then, I'm not letting you go alo-." I didn't get to finish my sentence and she didn't say 'three' before her elbow slammed into my gut with enough force my vision darkened as all the air rushed from my lungs. Her knee connected with my face the moment I stumbled forward and before I could register everything that had just happened in that split second, I was lying face down on the ground with my hands twisted painfully behind my back. The cool metal of handcuffs rubbing against my wrists brought me to my senses. She handcuffed me!
