Chapter 6: Under Arrest
Pedro opens up his laptop in his hotel room in Spain. He then opens up a certain program and clicks a few keys on the keyboard with a small grin. "So that's where you're hiding..." He mumbles as he has the computer zoom in on the location. He emails the coordinates to his cell phone and turns the computer off. Then he grabs his flipper-cuffs, the keys for them, his guns, and his badge and heads out of the room.
Pedro slides out of the hotel and silently to a small house hidden in a small wooded area just outside of Barcelona. He waddles up to the house. "...I probably should have asked for a warrant first but..." He then knocks on the door. There is no answer, so Pedro unlocks the door with a skeleton key he has on his keychain and then opens it. He takes out his pistol and holds it out as he cautiously enters the house.
He looks through all the rooms, but sees no one, nor any traces of anyone. Pedro gives a small sigh of aggravation and puts his pistol away. Then the door in the living room opens and someone waddles in and stops abruptly after seeing Pedro.
"And what the smoked atún are you doing in my house?!" Adriana exclaims; she is obviously very shocked and angry.
Pedro turns and looks at her before getting out his pistol again and pointing at her. "Adriana...Whatever your last name is..."
"Estrada." She says, looking at Pedro with a very dark and dirty glare.
Pedro nods. "Adriana Estrada, you are hereby under arrest for the murders of countless penguins and animals...And humans...And also for several robberies and for trying to overthrow the Portuguese government." He says.
Adriana looks at him very amused. "Oh, am I now?" She asks with a smirk. "First of all, you don't have a warrant to be in my house. Secondly, you don't have any proof that I did any of those things. And lastly, what are you going to do if I don't surrender? Shoot me?" She looks at him with a daring look and crosses her flippers. Pedro tightens his grip on the pistol. "Well, if you think you can, go ahead. Shoot me." She says.
Pedro pulls the trigger and fires a bullet just past Adriana's head. She looks at him slightly surprised; that bullet, if it had been half of a centimeter over would have hit her. "That was a warning shot. I won't miss twice." Pedro says in a lowered voice and a very serious look.
Adriana looks at him. "Fine." She says with a sigh. "If you think you can take me in, let's see how long you can keep me prisoner for...I bet not any longer than an hour." She says with a grin as she rolls her eyes and puts her flippers out for Pedro to cuff them.
Pedro gets his flipper-cuffs and cuffs one to one of Adriana's flippers and the other to one of his own. "Your knives?" He kind of asks, but also orders. Adriana sighs and takes out her knives and hands them all but one to Pedro. "Come on, all of them." He says holding out his flipper for it.
"Nope. I'll keep this one." She says and re-sheaths it in a hidden sheath on her side.
Pedro looks at her unbelievingly. "Oh, no, you won't."
"Oh, sí, I will." Adriana smirks and gives him a daring look.
"No. You will not." Pedro says. He then bites his tongue a little, tries not to think about what he is really doing, softly runs his flipper along her side, finds the hilt of the blade, and pulls it out.
Adriana looks at him a bit evilly. "I will be getting that back." She says.
"Not today, you won't." Pedro says. He lays the knife with other twelve knives on a nearby table. He wonders how the kipper she could possibly hide all of these on herself...And where she could have...He also wonders how he's going to bring all those knives with him and Adriana without a vehicle of some sort.
"Let me guess, you hadn't thought your strategy out from here, have you?" She asks amusedly with a dark smirk.
Pedro doesn't answer her. He instead ignores her, takes out his cell phone, and calls Commander Harold. "Sir, I've got La Sombra..." He says and waits for the commander's response. "Do you have me a transport?" Pedro blinks in surprise. "Wha–What?!" Commander Harold tells him that he isn't getting a transport and that since he let the Shadow get away the first time, he must find his own way to get the criminal to Peru. "But, sir!" He gasps.
Adriana looks at him. "Things not going the way you had planned, niño?" She asks impudently with a raised nonexistent eyebrow.
Pedro gives her a small glare and ignores her. Commander Harold tells Pedro 'no buts' and then hangs up. Pedro says a few choice Spanish words irritably under his breath, before looking at Adriana. "Looks like we'll be taking the long way back to base." He says.
