Fred and Aresia are captured

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 21871

The woman and two of the men agreed, having been bewitched by Aresia. They turned to leave. However, there was a slight problem. The remaining officer was an android, and as such could not be controlled. He gave his fellow officers a quick slap each, breaking their trance, before turning to Aresia.

The android bound her wrists in bulky electrocuffs. These were a particularly nasty form of restraint, as even the slightest hint of struggle caused an electric shock. Get shocked too many times, that was it - light's out. It would be classified as 'killed while resisting arrest'.

During this time, I had been staring blankly at the goings-on, not doing anything. The android restrained me easily, a fact that I would never likely to be able to live down.
