Chapter 1:
Jimmy Trivette quits
The Texas Ranger
Hello, my name is Cordell Walker and this is my story. Before I begin, here are some people in my story. Here are their names; Alex Cahill, Jimmy Trivette, Sidney Cook, Francis Cage, and C.D. Parker. I'm a Dallas-based member of the Texas Rangers and a State-Level Bureau of Investigation. Alex Cahill is a Tarrant County Assistant District Attorney, she puts on a bit of a frown if I don't obtain the information for her on time, and she also likes me. Jimmy Trivette is my partner, my best friend, a former Dallas Cowboys player, and works inside the office using computers and cellular phones to collect information on the people who've been taken into custody. Sidney and Gage are not mentioned right now. C.D. Parker, a semi-retired Texas Ranger, who used to be my partner before he got a bullet in his knee during a battle to arrest criminals after they robbed a bank and he now owns C.D.'s Bar and Grill.
The story begins when Trivette and I get into a big fight at C.D.'s with Alex and C.D. sitting right there at the bar table.
"Walker, I quit the Texas Rangers," yells Trivette and he leaves the bar and grill.
Alex and C.D. are very confused but don't ask anything because they don't want me to get more upset. So once I left, they start talking.
"C.D., what happened to their friendship?" said Alex.
"Gone is what happened, Alex."
"I guess you're right."
"I Know I'm right," said C.D.
"So, it's been over four weeks and no sign of Jimmy, Walker."
Ring, Ring went the telephone.
"It's Jimmy's phone."
After it rang the third time, I picked it up.
"Hello, this is Alex Cahill. Who is this?"
"C.D., its C.D. Parker. Jimmy is gone from his apartment. I can't find him anywhere nearby and his car is still here. His place is trashed up."
"Who would have done that, C.D.?"
"Alex, I think Jimmy did this?"
Jimmy walks in and says, "You're right, C.D. What are you doing here; this is my place for about two more days. Then it's gone and my car is gone, too. This is because I don't the money to afford them."
I turned around saw Jimmy who looked a whole lot different.
"Try to find you and to keep car and place you can come back to," said C.D. before he cut me off.
"No and I need no car. I have a ride to get to places I need to go. SO GO AWAY," he screamed at me.
So when I got back to the Texas Rangers' building, C.D. told Alex and me what happened. I got mad.
"Walker, you can't go talk to him. He's just going to get madder every time."
"I don't care. I'm the one he got in the fight with, not you guys."
So Walker took off and headed straight for Trivette's apartment. When I arrived at his apartment, I noticed that Trivette's Door was gone. So I took out my gun from the holster and walked in. I checked the bathroom.
Then, I heard my name, turned around, and saw Jimmy on the couch. He was hurt bad, so I called 911. He was rushed to the hospitable. I found out that he would have died if I hadn't show up at time I did. I started feeling sad for Trivette.
A couple weeks later, Jimmy woke up. As soon as I heard, went to the hospital and to his room.
When I got there, he was gone. So I headed back over to Trivette's apartment. Once I got there, I looked around and saw no sign of Jimmy.
Then all of a sudden, Jimmy stopped right in front of me on a black and gray blotched mare with a pink and gold star. Her mane is mostly white with little streaks of black.
"What are you doing here?" asked Jimmy.
"I was wondering why you're not in the hospital and who owns the mare?" said Walker.
"I own the mare. Come on, girl. Let's get out of here, Wild White Wind Selvesta. Let's call you by you nick name that is Triple W Single S."
About two minutes later, a guy I seen before came out of Jimmy's apartment. "Jimmy, where are you?" yelled Simon Trivette.
"He's…."before I could finish what I was saying. We heard a loud neigh from behind the fence in front of us. The fence was maybe ten feet high. Then, we heard it again and the mare and Jimmy were jumping over the fence.
"You can ride well," I yelled.
"Thanks," says Jimmy.
"Oh, Simon,"
"What's up," said Simon.
"We're going to a show jumping contest in Baltimore and the prize is five hundred thousand dollars."
"Are you talking about the River Hut competition?"
"Yeah. Why?"
"Someone is giving 500 acres to the winner."
"You're kidding me, Simon."
"No, I'm not."
About ten minutes later, a cop car showed up.
"What's up, Detective Carlos Sandoval," said Walker.
"Walker, I'm taking to Jimmy and his brother, Simon. Simon is a FBI Agent and Jimmy is thinking about joining and to be his partner," said Carlos.
"Jimmy, we need to talk alone," I said.
"No way," says Jimmy, he punches me, and takes off.
"What just happened?" says Simon.
"It has happened before when we had problems with Kroger and the time when the department had a review on the Danny Robison's shooting in the courtyard. When Jimmy was getting all worked up at the bar and after I had helped him with some guys who were beating him, I started talking to him about taking him home and he punched me. That's what happened that time," I said.
"I didn't know," said Carlos and Simon together at one time.
"What are we suppose to do about this?" I said.
"I don't know. First, we have find him and someone has to talk to him," said Carlos.
"Carlos, Carlos."
"Carlos, I think someone wanted to talk to you about something on the walkie-talkie."
"This is Detective Sandoval. What's up?"
"There a bank robbery at the Five Star Bank and there are about six hostages," said another cop.
"I'll be right there," said Carlos.
"Alright and there's one other thing.
"Jimmy has become a Texas Ranger once again," said the cop.
"Walker, did you hear that?"
"I don't believe it, but I heard it. Ask where he is right now?"
"Michael, where is Jimmy right now?"
"He went to the bank robbery alone," says Michael.
"He's crazy. Isn't he, Simon?"
Carlos hopped into his police car.
"Yeah, he sure is, Walker."
When we got there, Jimmy was in a shoot-off with the bad guys. He raced over to my truck and hid behind to protect himself. Simon opened the door and said, "You're crazy."
"How many bad guys are all together?" asked Simon
"There about ten bad guys in the front…" said Jimmy before there was a shot from behind us.
"Walker, call an ambulance. Jimmy has been shot."
"We need ambulance at the Five Star Bank."
Once the ambulance got there, they put Jimmy on a stretcher and put in the ambulance.
Once the ambulance got there, they put Jimmy on a stretcher and put in the ambulance.
"Walker, I'm going with him."
"Okay, I'll drive there."
I called Alex and C.D. and told them what happen. They both said at different times, "Okay, I'll be right there."
Alex and C.D. arrived just after I did, I walked over to Alex. Then she asked," How is Trivette, Walker?"
"I'm not sure. The doctor hasn't talk to us yet, He's in surgery."
"C.D., you stay with him in case they try again."
"Walker," said Simon.
"Yeah, what is it, Simon?"
"They figured out, the guy behind this Pete Darnel."
"I thought he was in Huntsville," said Alex.
"How he get out?" I asked.
"Good behavior and he's on parole."
"Walker, the doctor is here!"
"How is he?"
"He's in a coma and in Critical Condition."
"Can we see him?"
"Just for a minute, right this way."
Once we got there, C.D. started talking.
"Get Better, Jimmy. Walker catch Pete and hurt him."
"Walker, can I work with you until Jimmy gets better?"asked Simon.
"Sure just call the F.B.I headquarters and tell them, first."
"Okay, let's get started. I'll call while I'm in your truck."
"Okay, let's go."
So we went to my truck and hopped in. Simon, then, called the F.B.I headquarters.
"Sergeant, can I stay and help until Jimmy gets better?" asked Simon.
"Sure, you can," answered the Sergeant.
"Thanks."
"He said, 'Okay' Walker."
"Let's get searching. Are you any good at computers?"
"Yeah and why?"
"I'm not good at computers."
"Okay. You want me to teach you? We can surprise Jimmy."
"Okay, I guess."
