I gestured to Trent, “Take this man into custody and have your techs truth scan him.”The constable nodded before moving to secure his hands. Trent...looked desperate, “Wait!”We looked at him and he licked his lips, “Okay, they paid me to look the other way and unlock their cells.”I nodded to the constable, “Have him scanned and get the account information that was used. Use the marshals comm freq to let us know who it belongs to.”He nodded and roughly jerked Trent towards the door. Dragon leaped. In the distance I see the mountains, the downtown skyline, and some of the harbor lights. The traffic is busy with the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. All this is music to my ears.

"Good Morning, Andrew," I smile as we meet in the elevator. We chat some on the way up to our floor in the elevator. The office is somewhat. The room was so small that the two cots covered a large portion of the floor. The cots made an “L” shape; I slept on the cot laid against the wall that separated the kitchen from our room and she on the one next to the window. The window opened into the backyard of the house where there was a tiny coconut grove and a well.I lay down. She also lay down after switching off the light.“Hari, have you studied everything for your exam tomorrow?” she asked me now.“Yes, amma,” I replied.Then silence. In my junior year of high school I got a job after school and withsome of my new found wealth I bought a pair of army combat boots from anarmy-navy store.

In selecting a college, I made sure my choice had an ROTC program. Itwas.
