Emi knew she should try to break her fall as she tilted backwards. She should have anticipated her fall… if only she trusted her instincts. Now, she was going to break her skull, possibly her legs. If she was careless, she might break a rib or two and puncture her lungs.
The overly dramatic thoughts drifted through her mind as she fell, and she did not do anything to break her fall to the floor of the room she had opened.
Just when she thought she was going to crash onto the hard ground, she felt her world shift; it was like the sky was turning. The strong arm around her waist tightened, and a strong force turned her body just before she hit the ground.
Instead of lying on a cold hard surface, she found her body lying on top of the warm body of one Yagi Seiryo. She was shorter than he was, so her head landed on his chest, and her legs tangled with his as she landed safely.
