Agent James insisted on driving the car alone with Ares who wasn't handcuffed because of his bleeding arm.
When it had dawned on him that if anything happened to him whilst he was still in custody, he would be blamed, he agreed for his hand to be quickly bandaged.
The blood had been controlled just a little, but he could imagine how immense the pain was.
As he drove away, he kept an eye closely on Ares.
"You were a whole lot more confident when I saw you last night. How did you manage to get shot?" he asked.
Ares couldn't form a response even if he wanted to.
He was numb to everything, excluding the pain in his heart.
