Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
The Reveal
"I remember the whole thing like it was yesterday." Commented the head. "The bad part is Lee knocking me down at his front door."
"Mr. Hagen, how do you feel about that?" asked the rookie.
"Well…" began Basil. "It is something that none of us like to look back on. Barrage will never let it down. He constantly reminds Cam, Holger, Biff and me about it."
"Yes, well, what exactly is the inspiring part here?" asked the rookie.
"That even when Lee had almost everyone against him he still won in the end." Replied Basil. "I might tell you one of the other stories another time. Thankfully I don't make the mistake Barrage used to of always having his door open… Well, now it's my door."
The rookie laughed. "Do you ever still see Lee?"
"Yeah, not as much as we like but we see each other." Basil looked at a picture of him at Lee and Tina's wedding. He looked a bit on the odd side with his white hair and disfigured face. Otherwise he was looking almost as good as the other male guests. "Of course we are godfathers to each others kids… But on the other hand the only reason I'm godfather is because I was the only one in the country when Lee and Tina asked me."
"You were the fourth choice?" asked the rookie.
"If only." Groaned Basil.
"Fifth?"
"No."
"Sixth?"
"The thirty-fifth." Stated Basil. "Those many guys were out of the country when they asked me to be godfather. They even outright said I was the thirty-fifth on their list."
The rookie burst out laughing. "I'm sorry, this is just too much! I'm telling this to the others!"
"You do and your out." Was all Basil said for a warning and that was all that needed to be said.
