A black Expedition raced through the rain. It pattered hard onto his hood, and the coldness chilled him through metal. Puddles in the road splashed at his sides as he raced along. He had to get out of there. He needed to run.

He had no idea where he was going though, but the heat was on him and he had to get to safety. The only thing against his favor was the fact he was drunk, and he had killed his wife. That's all he could remember. His wife, the anger, the fear. The exhaustion quickly creeping up on him as he went from town to town. He knew he had to stay low. He wasn't sure if he was going to be known or located as far as he was traveling.

He had to get out of the country though. He couldn't stay. Europe or even Australia. He had to get out and be safe. He took remaining savings to live life as low as possible, and to travel far away. That was only on his mind.

Few years passed. He needed to find someplace to earn money. Usually sitting around for at least a year would have drove any car crazy, but not him. He decided to finally venture out, hoping the news of past tragedies would be long forgotten. That's all he could hope. But he also needed to learn how to fight. How to ward off the authorities and be smart about it in the process. He heard about a certain agency hiring and decided to give it a shot. He knew already it would be tough.


Previous day

"So, you would like to apply for field work, is that correct?" A familiar blue Cadillac asked.

"Yes, if there's no trouble in training before hand." The Ford replied.

"No issue at all. We have very skilled agents here who would have no struggle at training you." He looked over the application on his holographic computer. "And start as soon as you can?"

"Yes, if that works."

"It works as long as it works for you. I suppose it's settled then. Welcome aboard. I will partner you with an agent and tomorrow the training will begin. Building hours usually open at 6am, so be here then. You will be able to tour the building at a later date, once training has been completed."

"Thank you sir. I will not let you down."

"Carr. Cooper Carr. One thing as well, my name will be spoken of here. No fancy titles or anything is needed. I will see you tomorrow, Todd."

"Thank you, Cooper. I'll see you at 6." Todd left the office and followed another agent to find his way out of the building. He was excited and happy, but also a bit anxious. He would make this Cadillac proud.

The next morning he arrived at 6, just like he had promised. He made his way towards Cooper's office once more, and he was greeted by the Cadillac instantly.

"Good morning, Todd. I have decided to pair you up for the time being with one of our longest employed and knowledgeable agents in this building. His name is Finn Mcmissile. I assume you two will click fairly well." Cooper nodded and paged for Finn to come. Todd waited patiently to see this agent arrive.

A metallic blue Faultless came around the corner. He was sleek and low to the ground.

"Mcmissile, this is the new agent I have told you about. Todd Tyre. Todd, this is Finn. He will teach you at everything you know. He already has some knowledge in his background."

"Nice to meet you, Todd." Finn nodded. "We will get started right away if you're ready?"

"I'm definitely ready." Todd nodded. He followed the elder agent down the hall leaving the Cadillac back to his work.

"How much background knowledge are you aware of? Have you ever shot a weapon or fired a missile?"

"I have fired a gun, no missiles or anything."

"Ah, so you have the basics on firearms. We will begin there then to see how well you do."

Todd spent the rest of the day learning procedures and weapons and tactics he would use out on the field. He felt exhausted by the time everyone began packing up and his mind spun at everything he learned.

"I think you will make a fine agent." Finn nodded. "You are catching quickly. It will be a while before you start to go on actual missions with me, but when that happens, you will be more than prepared. Tomorrow, I will give a tour of the building to get you acquainted."

"Thank you, Finn. I feel much better about my time here." Todd nodded. They parted ways and Todd left for home. He felt like his life was finally coming back together and pieces were fitting in. He had no worry anymore.
