Beth McCabe was probably the most physically fit out of the group. And she was the only woman too. By the end of the day she was waiting about 20 minutes for the rest of the group, only 20 more people, to finish the physical examination. She really wanted to be on SWAT. Hondo gave her the thumbs up as she walked by to take a shower. She was pretty sure that that was a good sign.

Beth McCabe was only 20 years old, and had joined the force at the age of 18. Since the recent rule change, needed only two years of patrol instead of three, more people have tried out for the SWAT team. Beth was the only daughter of Michelle McCabe. She had two older brothers Eric, 26 and Mike, 23. Her mother had divorced her real father when she was barely one and had remarried just after Beth turned two. Her mother's new husband, Steve, had two boys Dan, 35 and Tom, 32.

Unfortunately for Beth, her relative, cousin actually, T.J. McCabe had been on SWAT and had betrayed the team, so she needed to show Hondo, but more specifically Fuller, that she was not like T.J. at all and she felt like she had proved it.

"Gentlemen and lady," Hondo said as he walked into the meeting room after everyone had showered and change. "This is the schedule for the meeting with Fuller. Unfortunately only three positions are open so eighteen of you will not make it. Please try again next year. Chances are more will be retiring. Okay first up is our only female, who beat you all, Beth McCabe."

Beth got up as everyone was clapping and headed towards Fuller's office.

"Beth McCabe," Fuller spoke as she walked in the room. Full name Elizabeth Caroline McCabe. Age 20 years old. Lives hear in LA in her parents' house. No criminal record. Passed all examinations. Beat all the males in the physical exam. Oh but you are related to T.J. McCabe."

"Umm… about that," Beth spoke still standing. "T.J. is really my cousin. He is my stepfather's sister's son."

"I see," replied Fuller. "Oh Hondo put in a recommendation for you. Everything in it is good. Damn. I can get rid of you. Another fucking woman on the team."

"Excuse me!" exclaimed Beth. "What is wrong with being a woman? Maybe you brain didn't register it. I beat all the guys on everything!"

"I know," replied Fuller. "I just think women on the team is bad. SWAT starts Monday 8am sharp."

"I'll be there at 7am," replied Beth and walked out.

As Beth was being selected for LAPD SWAT Team, her biological father was stirring up trouble again. He had robbed his tenth bank in twelve days with his wife. They decided against kids especially since he abandoned his own to spend his life with her. Ever since he divorced Beth's mother he had been robbing bank and murdering people and he would stay local to find out if the police could track him. He wasn't a good murderer/robber because he would leave fingerprints and shoe tracks yet no one has been able to track him down. In the 19 years that he had been robbing banks and murdering people, he had yet to be found. Unfortunately for him, his robber/murderer days would soon be over.
