Defense
I’m not exactly sure what happened, but I was pulled aside and I felt the cold adrenaline form of the gun leave my hand.
“Tod…TOD!” Someone was shaking me.
“Wuh-huh?” I slurred, not even able to speak.
“What happened?” I think Young was shaking me, but it may be Aaron since he has a deeper voice.
”...These geeks were robbing a store.” I said slowly, the red and blue not as much blinding me anymore. “They had a gun, I recognized them from a scam. If I let them go, they’d get caught and rat us…”
I couldn’t speak any more, the major adrenaline rush was draining my energy reserves. I stumbled towards a familiar someone.
“How ya doin’, hero?” Alex smiled with a cigarette hanging in the corner of his mouth.
“Wuh happened?” I said, with his personal trail of smoke dizzying me.
“You should know.” A policeman said, frowning at me.
An odd, reflex-like defense mechanism clicked on in my head.
I did nothing wrong, I did nothing wrong, I did nothing wrong.
I was dragged off.
