Raidou spared a moment to wonder what was it with Haruichi and verbal suicide, before he swept the man's feet out from under him. He made certain not to hit the medic -- he was beating up a medic. If Genma's afterlife existed, then Raidou was going to a very special hell -- hard enough to break an ankle, not that he thought Haruichi appreciated the gesture. At least the Hyuuga fell more skilfully then he blocked, catching himself successfully on what were probably pretty sore forearms.
The way Raidou saw it, he had a few options at this point. He could call the fight and do the honourable thing by walking the hell away -- but that way lead to a lack of cash for the living thing, and a lack of a mission partner for Genma, which also directly tied to the living thing, or the lack of it -- he could end the fight with the much more blunt manner of inflicting head trauma and unconsciousness, he could throw the fight and let Haruichi win -- of course, if he did that he would never be able to forgive himself, and he doubted Haruichi would either -- or he could kill Arakaki and put a terminal end to the whole matter.
Of course, the last would get him executed for treason, but it was still an option.
Raidou decided to be pernickety and went with none of the above. Instead he dropped himself down to neatly straddle Haruichi's lower back, dodged the backwards elbow that would've almost connected, and grabbed Haruichi's wrists to wrench them around and hold them together, shoving them up until his arms were bent at a fairly painful angle and his hands rested just shy of the back of his own neck. "Right," he said to the idiot-medic and the idiot-captain both, "We've established that not only can you take a hit, kid, but that you can also bounce. Congratulations." He looked up and glared at Arakaki, proving that Haruichi was not the only one with career ending tendencies in his character. "Can we end this while we still have a functioning medic, or do you need to see him truly carbonized before your wounded pride is satisfied?"
Raidou had no problems with authority, but he did have some stellar objections to personal vendettas making it into the mix. Besides, there were only so many times you could hit a guy who couldn't hit back before it seriously stopped being fun. |
