I'm brand new to The Sentinel, both the show and the fandom. Having watched as many shows as possible in the last four weeks, I thought I'd tackle a few drabbles and possibly work my way up to some full length stories.
All that being said, this is my third Sentinel drabble. Without this intro etc. the drabble itself is the requisite 100 words. :-)
I hope everyone enjoys.
Disclaimer: I own nothing related to The Sentinel. I'm just having a little fun with the boys.
Cosmic Trouble Magnet?
By: Vanessa Sgroi
This isn't my job, man. Seriously. I'm only an observer with the Cascade Police Department. A poor-as-a-church-mouse grad student studying a cop—who just happens to be a Sentinel—ergo my coveted thesis. Yet these bad situations, bad days keep finding me. It's like I'm some sort of cosmic trouble magnet or something. Maybe it's the long hair? Hmmmm. Naaaah.
So tonight was supposed to be a simple stakeout according to Ellison. It wasn't. All hell broke loose a few minutes ago. Like "dodging bullets zinging through the air" hell.
I'm never allowing Jim to use the word "simple" again.
