After signing all the assorted paperwork needed to start my first day of real work as a cop I head down to the motorpool to meet the Sheriff and my new partner.
As I reach the motorpool I see the Sheriff and a tall, older looking, heavyset officer with a name tag that read Johnson and then the Sheriff turned to me and said hey kid this is Mark Johnson one my best guys and also your partner till you get the hang of things,so listen to what he tells you because he knows this town and the surrounding area like the back of his hand. On that note I've got other stuff to do so I'll leave you fellas to it.
As the Sheriff leaves Johnson turns to me and says I owe you one big time the waitress that drunk tried to attack last night was my daughter and she's just about the only family I got left so I sincerely thank you kid
It was nothing sir.Now don't go sirring me son you saved the blood of my blood so me and my family owe you and the least I can do is treat you like an equal partner and let you call me Mark.
So just to get a vibe about how you'll react to our town's crazyness I heard you were in the military son is that true? Yes it is I served with the Army Rangers and was then transfered to Special Forces and was stationed in Africa with my unit as my squads Designated Marksman and that's where people in the spec ops community started calling me man hunter because if by some miracle I miss I will track you to the ends of the earth just like my father taught me.
Well that's good kid sounds like you are a good guy to have on our side. So do you have any questions before we take off on your first patrol?
Nope I'm good.
Ok then lets get moving.
As we talked we made our way to our patrol car a big Suburban with a big cage in the back and I put my gear bag in the trunk and then Mark starts driving.So kid this is Main street and this is where the police station, the firehall, bank, and Chuckies the bar where my daughter Carla works is located and then we have oak drive which is where most of the wealthiest people in town including the mayor live and next to that is birch drive which is where we have our pizza place and our mall which is the edge of mine and your patrol route so any questions about the area kid.
Well are there any gangs or anything to watch out for other than drunks at the bar?
the only gangs we have are the Cobras which is our local biker gang and some of the deep woods people cook meth or moonshine and they get very trigger happy.
After Mark finishes explaining the basics to me we get a call about some bikers causing trouble at Chuckie's
Allright kid they're singing our song
As we enter the bar we see one of a group of four biker grab Carla'a ass so before even Carla can react Mark already has the biker's arm twisted and his head pinned to the and turns to ask Carla if she is ok but before he can finish talking a smaller biker starts reaching for a big knife strapped to his leg but before he can even get the clasp undone I clamp my hand on his shoulder and tell him not to even try it if he wants to physically walk away from this situation.As I finish talking he spins around and somehow gets the knife to my throat but stops once he sees my dogtags and tattoos and 45 at his waist then his eyes widden like a dear in headlights especially at my name and he drops the knife telling the other two bikers that I am untouchable because I am the manhunter and a former unit mate of the boss so they aren't even supposed to look at me funny. After the biker finishes talking I let him pick up his knife and let them run off scared.
After the bikers run off and Mark puts the first one in the car Carla walks up to me and asks why they ran off and I explain that they're scared of me because of some of my known achievements from when I was a soldier.
She looks asks me what I did that made them so scared of me and I told her how I once cut my way into a p.o.w camp after tracking the enemy for three days while wounded and rescued all the people inside while also killing all 30 of the guards without being noticed by any of them.
After telling that story Mark comes over and asks Carla if she is ok she says she's fine thanks dad and goes back to work.
On that note lets get going kid we have to go process this punk at the station.As we get to the station the Sheriff tells us there wass some sort of animal attack on 3rd street and that me and Brutus are needed for tracking as soon as possible.
