Chapter 2 - Ch.2 Her injury

From the click of mechanisms, it sounded like they had their guns out. I didn't want to look. I opened my mouth to say something but remembered I wouldn't be able to get the words out for some reason.

I looked up at Adam, his eyes met mine for a few minutes. I held onto him tighter, scared to face what was happening. As if knowing what I was going to ask he told me.

Adam:

"Shhh, I've got you. Yes, they drew their guns. You're going to be ok." The corner of his mouth lifted showing me a small smile.

Dation

"She's in here for hurting my partner, you think I would let her off?! You're crazy! This bitch hurt my partner! And tried to hurt me when I was asking her some questions. No one was around, and I couldn't get handcuffs on her so I held her down.

Blake

"You can drop the act now, you're not fooling anyone. And I can very much so doubt your story. Plus if you were in any immediate danger you should have used your radio to get back up" He said slowly entering the room, staring Dation down.

At first, I thought I don't know him. But his voice, I recognized his voice, he's an officer I talked to before about Dation, I thought to myself. Timidly from Adam's arms, I looked over seeing Dation take a step away from us. I looked at the man whom I now recognized as Blake, I opened my mouth to say something to him. Raising an eyebrow to my unheard voice, he looked at me confused. I brought my hand slowly to my mouth... I gripped Adam's shirt and looked down. He looked down at me, and closing the distance between his face and mine he whispered "I'm sorry" into my ear. I looked up to meet his gaze and smiled. As if to tell him its ok, that it's not his fault.

Blake

"Sorry, let me introduce myself to you who do not know me, my name is Detective Blake. Kitten is a good friend of mine, and when I caught word of what happened I came as fast as I could... Only to find her injured... Now, who hurt her?"

Adam looked at Blake, putting his knife away he scooped me up in his arms princess-style.

Adam

"It...It was my fault....She was left in my care, I was supposed to keep her safe... I was supposed to process her, and figure out what actually happened. But while I was trying to figure out what happened... She got hurt... It's my fault and I take full responsibility."

He looked down at me, I shook my head to say no. Adam watches Dation carefully and moves to set me back on the bed, but he hesitates and carries me over to the chair. He sits down my head leaning against his shoulder, still clutching his shirt I start trembling. Everything hit me like a truck, I was never going to be safe anywhere. The arm that was holding my upper body up, he wrapped around my shoulders pulling me closer to his chest. "It's ok, I've got you" he whispered. The Doctor came out hearing all the commotion.

Doctor

"What the hell is all the commotion about?!" She asked angrily. She looks around the room, then looks at the bed, then at Adam holding me. "Well look whos up. Can you speak? Any dizziness? Are you hurting anywhere?"

Adam

"She can't speak... She tried but nothing. It could be her vocal cords." He said looking at me

Doctor

"Hmm... here" The Docter passed Adam some water. She looked at me, "Drink some water maybe that will help. It might just be irritated."

Adam breaks the seal on the water bottle and passes it to me. I drank about half before starting to cough again. Bring my hand to my throat but not touching it, for drinking the water was like I took tea right off the burner and drank it, it was like my throat was on fire. Adam took the bottle from me and set it on a table next to him, grabbing my hand that was near my throat gently, noticing it was the wrapped one, he  pulled it away carefully not to hurt me.

Adam

"Don't touch it... It'll hurt more" He said to me softly.

The doctor approached Adam and me placing a few fingers on my chin and tipping my head up to look at the bruised area to see if it went up any further. Noticing I was wincing she let go. "Sorry about that, I wanted to make sure I got all of it wrapped so it wouldn't get worse."

Blake

"What happened exactly?"

Adam

"...well the only person that can tell us what happened, can't speak... Imagine that ... That just so happens to be our luck of the draw." He looks at Dation. The tension between the two of them was so thick you could cut it with a knife.

Dation

"I'll tell you what happened. That bitch threatened me and attacked me when I was asking her questions about what happened at the bar! She pulled a knife on me, and guess who was supposed to search her, and has a grudge against me, oh and look at that its Adam."

Adam

"I walked to her cell only to find Officer Dation pinning her against the wall, holding her by her throat. If there was a knife I didn't see any signs of one, and you don't have a scratch to prove otherwise."

Dation

"Yes, because she told me if she ever got out she would kill me and my partner (whos in the hospital with a bullet in the leg) and it was probably under the bed considering you didn't even think to check the cell. And of course, I'm trained in hand to hand combat. If I did I would be a disappointment to the people who trained me. And what did she say to you when you put her in her cell?"

Adam

"Something about talking to the bar owner, not harmful in any way" He replied calmly smirking and glancing at me. "You know it's not the first time I've heard about things you've been doing. I've gotten complaints about you from other females who've been held here."

Dation

"That's different then this they admitted they led me on and said they lied about everything. How do you know about complaints considering your not my supervisor?"

Blake

"That is true, however, I'm not so sure about this story though. Kitten is known to be a kind-hearted person even to even the worst of monsters. And she would never attack anyone without a strong cause... But either way, we still don't know the truth of what happened."

Dation

"I would never attack some weak and helpless person! Especially one with a mouth like her's. She's a weak helpless bitch looking for someone to give her what she wants."

I looked at Adam and nodded, I stood up wavering ever so slightly. Adam stood up grabbing my arms to help steady me. I walked slowly becoming more stable with each step. Walking past Dation to try to explain things to Blake.

Dation not giving up grabbed my wrist tightly, I winced at the pain that shot through my wrist, reminding me he knows a lot about me, my family and friends. What was I going to do... tip them off and risk my friends and family or not and allow him to be released?...

I watched as Adam move fairly quickly, as quickly as a ball is thrown in pro baseball. Placing the blade against his neck warning him to let go.

Pulling my wrist from him I stood there shocked unsure of what to do. He smiled a mischievous smile. "Oops I think I scared her, my bad," he said laughing.

Adam looked like he had enough, he put his blade away and kneed Dation in the stomach and let him fall to the ground

Adam

"He pissed me off..."

The Warden let out a good hefty chuckle, unable to contain himself.

I ask for someone's phone and typed in regretfully, "He is ....partly right, Though I never shot his partner." The Warden sighed taking a few minutes to think about what to do.

I typed in "its a lie, I don't have a choice if I tell the truth my friends and family could be hurt...."

I showed it to Adam, suddenly the floor became more interesting than him. Adam placed his hand on top of my head as if to say it was ok.

Warden

"I suppose we let him go now..." he walks and removes the handcuffs on Dation.

"We can't charge anyone."He looks at me. "Have any family that could get you?" I shook my head no.

Adam

"She can stay with me I live alone so it'll be fine."

Warden

"Ok and after what happened today you and Dation will take the rest of the week off. Meet me at the front gate when you are done talking with the doctor. I'll get her belongings from storage."

Dation

Standing up and walking over to us, Adam automatically got in front of me. "You're just going to let her walk! After she shot my partner?! And attacked me! You're letting her off?! She needs to pay for what she did to my partner!" He said angrily pointing at me. Blake called Adam over and told me to stay put, so I did. They were talking about something but I couldn't hear what, over Dation.

Warden

"There's nothing to prove either story so unless you want to be in handcuffs again, you have the week to cool off"

Dation

"She shot my partner and almost killed me, and you want me to walk away from the situation!?"

Warden

"You will walk away if you don't want to land in a cell for the night" and with that, he walked out.

Dation

He stepped closer to me. I stepped back not wanting to be near him. I looked over to Adam I opened my mouth to call out to him only to be greeted with pain. Dation laughed as he watched me.

"Forget did you" Adam grabbed my arm pulling me behind him prospectively. "I promise I will make you pay. You both will. That's a promise I intend to keep" He said glaring.

And with that he left bumping into Adam's shoulder purposefully. Walking passed me he winked when he left the room  I collapsed to my knees on the floor. Shaking like a little kid outside in the snow with no jacket on. Adam took a knee beside me putting a hand on my shoulder, I nodded to tell him I'm fine.

He went and talked to the Doctor, who passed him some cream and bandages. He helped me to my feet, after putting his jacket over me he picked me up. He grabbed his keys from the front desk and we met the Warden by the front gate, in Adams truck he passed me my belongings and opened the front gate. We left, for the first couple of minutes, we sat in silence. I picked up my phone looking at some messages from my friends.
