Chapter 35. - Lightning And The PIT -
Next day: The deputies met at an old abandoned warehouse just on the outskirts of town. Some of the regular deputies were also going to participate in this training exercise
as well. The deputies were talking among each other and did not see Scarlett and Dunkin arrive. "Good Morning everyone" Scarlett said loudly, to catch everyone's attention.
All nine deputies quickly got in line and stood at attention. "This morning we are going to cover building searches, an active shooter, and how to respond to an officer down
scenario. After lunch, we will practice defensive diving drills. For some of you this will be a refresher curse and for rest of you it will be a whole new situation, I suggest you
pay attention, it might save your life." By the time that everyone stopped for lunch, Lightning and then other rookies were hot and tired. "Sometimes I hate living on the edge
of a desert" Lightning said as drank an entire bottle of water. "I've forgotten how hot it can get out here." "Me too" Leah said "It rarely gets this hot in New York." "Attention
deputies" Scarlett said over the police radio. "Medical personnel have informed me that the temperature has risen to the point that it's not safe to do the defensive diving drills
this afternoon. The drills are rescheduled for tomorrow morning. Deputies Tango, McQueen, and Dread, report to the conference room. All other deputies…return to your
normal duties." After they finished eating, Lightning and the others headed back to the conference room. Dunkin soon joined them. The deputies saluted him as Dunkin took
his place at the table. "It looks like we have a slight change of plans" Dunkin said. "So, we are going to cover arrest and search procedures. We are going to start with
watching a video, then we are going over to the impound. There are two cars that you will watch being booked into jail." Dunkin put the disk into the player and hit play.
"Deputy McQueen" Dunkin said. "Come and get me when the video is done." "Yes. Sir" Lightning said "I will do that." Dunkin left the deputies to watch the video. After the
two-hour video was done, Lightning informed Dunkin that the video was done. Dunkin then lead the rookies over to the impound where two cars, a male and a female was
being arrested for breaking and entering. "As much as I would like each of you to personally watch each car go though the process of being booked, protocol requires only
females watch the female strip search, and only the males watch the male strip search." Dunkin said, as an female deputy approached Dunkin "Deputy Tango, this is Deputy
Windy… go with her and she'll show you the process for the females. The rest of us are going to witness the male version of the process." Leah followed Deputy Windy to the
women's side of the impound. The rookies watched as the accused had their mug shots taken then they were striped searched for any weapons or contraband. The female did
not have anything on her, but the male had cocaine hidden in his underwear. "That Rookies" Dunkin said "Is why we strip search everyone who gets booked." The next
morning: Everyone met at Lightning's racing stadium. Lightning was surprised to see Doc and Jackie here. "Doc, what are you and Jackie doing here?" Lightning asked "Tara's
training doesn't start for another few days." "I know that Kid" Doc said "We're here incase someone gets hurt today. Besides, I have some paperwork to do. I'll be in the
office, Jackie will let me know if I'm needed." Doc headed to the office. "Listen up Rookies!" Dunkin said. "We'll start the day by doing some stretches then a few warm up
laps. Deputy McQueen, no showing off… keep your speed under eighty." "Party Pooper" Lightning quietly said to Leah. "And I'm feeling good today." After everyone stretched
and did a few warm up laps. Dunkin partnered each of the rookies with an experienced deputy. "Deputy McQueen your partner for the day is Sergeant Oliver Wrangler;
Deputy Savage Dread your partner is Deputy William Stone. Deputy Leah Tango your partner will be Deputy Sandy Wendy. All right, we are going to start with some basic
self-defense training" Dunkin said. "The deputy you are paired with is an expert trainer, so pay attention to what he or she tells you. All right have at it, I'll check on you in a
few hours." "Have you had any experience with self-defense?" Oliver asked as they drove away from the rest of the deputies "If not, I'll teach you some basic moves." "Yes"
Lightning said "But it's been a few years since I've had to use them." "All right" Oliver said. "Get ready." With out warning he 'attacked' Lightning. To Oliver's surprise,
Lightning was able to either block or dodge most of his attack. "Good job, Lightning" Oliver said when they stopped to take a breather. "I'm happy that you remembered most
of your training." "Me too" Lightning said while panting lightly. "I'm a little rusty though, you managed to land a few punches." Dunkin checked on the deputies a few hours
later. He watched as the trainers put the rookies through their paces. Leah and Savage did all right, but it was Lightning that impressed Dunkin. "That was really good
Lightning" Dunkin said. "Unlike the other two rookies, I don't think you'll anymore self-defense training. All right… Deputies met me at the starting line." Once everyone had
assembled at the staring line. Dunkin had Oliver unroll something in front of the rookies. "Can anyone tell me what this is?" Dunkin asked both Leah and Savage raised their
tires. "Deputy Tango…" "It's a spike strip, Sir" Leah said proudly "It's used to stop fleeing cars by puncturing their tires." "That is correct." Dunkin said "You are going to learn
how to deploy one. This particular spike strip is used for training; it has rubber spikes instead of metal ones. The tips are dipped in a bright yellow paint so I can tell if you
deployed the spikes in time to stop the suspect car." Dunkin showed the rookies how to deploy the spike strip. He also demonstrated how operate the device, so the spikes
would be up for the suspect car, then he flipped a switch that lowered the spikes so the police car could drive over the strip without getting his tires puncturing. The rookies
spent a few hours training with the spike strip. During one of the exercise runs, a deputy sipped, injuring himself. Jackie called Doc to the track. Lucky Doc discovered the
deputy only sprained his axle. Dunkin sent him home to rest for a few days. By lunchtime, the rookies were deploying the spike strip correctly. After lunch, the rookies worked
on tactical driving skills. They practiced things like Bootleg turns and reverse 180s and all the variations of those skills. "Can I have everyone attention. I know you all have
been dieing to learn this skill." Dunkin said "I'm talking about the Purist Immolation Technique, or PIT. It is a pursuit tactic where a pursuing vehicle can force a fleeing vehicle
to abruptly turn sideways, causing the vehicle to loose control and has to stop." Behind Dunkin, two of the experienced deputies demonstrated the maneuver perfectly. "All
right we will go though the maneuver slowly." Dunkin said. he had long pointer in his rim. "The maneuver begins when the perusing vehicle pulls along side the fleeing vehicle
so that a potion of your quarter panel is allied with the subject's rear wheels." The two cars stopped in front of the rookies. Dunkin used the pointer to help show the rookies
how the two cars were positioned. "The pursuer makes contact with the target's rear, then sharply steers into the target. You must accelerate at this point or you will slide off
the target." As Dunkin explained it, the two cars demonstrated it. "As soon as the fleeing vehicle rear tires start to lose traction and start to skid, continue to turn in the same
direction until you are clear of the target. The target vehicle will turn the opposite direction and spin out." The cars demonstrated it, since they almost standing still, the
fleeing car just stepped around the vehicle's bumper until he was facing the other way. "The PIT maneuver can be done from either side, but consideration must be given to
where the fleeing car will end up. Typically another officer will tail the car who is doing the PIT maneuver. Once the maneuver is completed, the officer can continue with the
arrest until the vehicle that did the PIT maneuver can recover his/her own control. You must keep in mind that the PIT maneuver doses not fully subdue the subject. To do
that, two cars are needed to pin the subject between them. All right Rookies… you ready to try it?" Everybody nodded eagerly. Once again, Lightning was paired with Oliver.
The other two rookies were with their trainer. Oliver taught Lightning how to do the maneuver slowly at first, then they started to pick up speed. Once all the rookies were
demonstrating that they could do the maneuver effectually, Dunkin had the rookies practice with each other. Savage was paired with Leah for a run. Leah was the fleeing
vehicle and Savage was the perusing vehicle. Dunkin had them practice the maneuver slowly then they gradually worked up to highway speeds. Every now and then, they
would switch. On a practice run Savage, very aggressively did a PIT maneuver on Leah. She felt rear axle pop, then pain flooded the era. Leah sat there for a few moments,
hoping the pain would go way. Savage drove away from Leah, knowing that he broke her axle. "It's best when you do the PIT maneuver aggressively, but that was too
aggressive. Deputy Savage, back off a little next time." Dunkin said, not noticing that Leah was wincing in pain. "If you push to hard against the suspect, you can easily break
their rear axle. All right…Deputy McQueen, it's your turn, you are the fleeing vehicle. Deputy Dread, you are the perusing vehicle." When Leah tired to move out of the way,
tremendous pain shot down her axle. As much as she tried, Leah could not hold back a cry of pain. "Leah, are you all right?" Dunkin asked "Talk to me! Where do you hurt?"
"My… axle… it hurts!" "Hang on" Dunkin said as he called Jackie. "We'll get you looked at." Moments later, "Which axle hurts?" Jackie asked as she pulled to a stop next to
Leah. "I need to know so I can tell Doc." "Left, rear." Leah said threw a groan of pain. "Stand back, I think I'm going to be sick!" She had a few dry heaves, but nothing came
out. Leah tried to keep from crying in pain, but tears fell anyway. Lightning gently wiped them from her eyes. "Its okay, Leah" Lightning said. "I know how painful broken axle
is." Jackie quickly examined her and then called Doc down. Lightning leaned on Leah, hoping to take some of weight off her axle. By the time that Doc reached her, Leah's
axle was very swollen and tender. "Oh, boy Kiddo!" Doc said as he examined her axle. "I think we need to get some x-rays of that. I'm sure it's broken. I'm going to call for an
ambulance… Breathe Leah, you look like you're about to pass out on me." Jackie had a small oxygen tank with her. She put a respirator mask on Leah and turned on the
oxygen. "It's okay, I know it hurts" Jackie said "Just breathe normally, the oxygen will help." Ten minutes later: Tempest arrived and Leah was loaded up and she was taken
to the hospital, Doc followed her to the hospital. Jackie remained at the track just incase anyone else got hurt. Once Doc and Tempest left, Dunkin got back to training. "Okay,
Deputy Dread you are the fleeing car." Dunkin said, changing his mind. "Deputy McQueen, you are perusing vehicle. You will start slowly and work up to highway speeds." It
wasn't long until they were doing the maneuver at highway speeds. Once they mastered that Dunkin had them switch positions. Savage made a comment about Lightning not
being fast for being a racecar, which Dunkin overheard. He just coked an eye ridge at Lightning, giving permission for Lightning to show Savage just how fast he was. They
lined up at the starting line. Dunkin gave the signal to start, Lightning shot way from Savage, who struggled to keep up. While Savage was no slouch when it came to speed,
he could not keep pace with Lightning. Once he had lapped Savage… twice. Dunkin stepped in when Lightning was about to lap him a third time. "All right Deputy McQueen"
he said. "That's enough… I think that Deputy Dread understands how fast you are and will keep his mouth shut from now on." Lightning slowed down and Savage finally
caught up to him, panting heavily. Making sure that he was out of Dunkin's hearing, Lightning decided to taunt his fellow rookie. "You are not a bamf, you're a whip!"
Lightning taunted "My teenage daughter has more 'balls' than you'll ever have." Lightning revved his engine and pulled away. Every time Savage would try to perform the PIT
on Lightning. Lightning would just rev his engine, and pull way from him. Lightning even used a few racing tricks to force Savage to either slow down, or try to get under him
to attempt the maneuver. "All right Deputies" Dunkin said. "I'm happy with your progress."
guest-Whoa! Cheeky Tara! I like the tickle attack punishment Lightning gave her. At least it's something to laugh about. Lightning and Leah are learning 's sake don't mess with bombs!-My dad would do something like that, when I would let one of his secrets slip out!
I'll guarantee Scarlett will do more damage than her father if you get on the wrong side of her. -Yes, Scarlett is a strong woman...and you don't mess with strong women! Like my friend says "Because if you do...we will kick your butt up around your ears!-LOL
Please maybe make a part where Savage makes Scarlett angry and she shows him her rough side. Say he flirts towards her and after embarrassing him she shows him her engagement rim and who her fiancee is. That'll teach Savage for having a lot of dick in his personality than in his codpiece-That's a good idea. I'll properly use it later in the story!
I wrote that comment involving Savage I just forgot the 2 on the end-I was wondering if it was, it sounded like something you would say.
CarsWorldFan-I am so glad you decided to use another one of my little ideas in this chapter, so thank you!-Your welcome! If it's a good idea that will fit into the
story I'll will try to use it. I can't say I'll use every idea.
Lightning needs a good dressing down every now and again, don't you think? I really enjoy the way Dunkin is treating him exactly the same way as the other deputies; ie, no special treatment.- I had was playing round with the idea, but I never seemed to get the words to come out right, so I just left it out. But when you made the suggestion, it helped me find the right words, Thank You!
Just had another idea as part of their training - how about an obstacle course, like the ones the police actually train on? I suppose that could come later in their training, but it is only an idea. Feel free to use it if you like. Keep up the great work!-I'll see what I can do, I can't make any promises.
Twister2021-Great job on this chapter. I have a good joke for you. What did a ear of corn call his dad? Popcorn-That's cute
My question is when are you going to have the police training for a nuclear attack?-In a few chapters. Since Leah has a broken axle,(how that a happens is in this chapter) Scarlett gives her the task of updating the town's Disaster Plan. Which will cover everything from natural disasters to car(man)made ones.
Are you doing any better?-Yes, I'm doing a little better, Thanks!
Could you please put Vin Diesel in the story? Great job on this chapter. My puppies names are Buju and Mya.-Cute names!
Could you please use Vin Diesel in the story.:)-I have written him in at the first race of the year.
Frogman Wow, that is a lot of reviews, congratulations!-Thanks, I was shocked when I saw how many there were!
Good with the gun information. I think that Deputy Dread is envious of McQueen. I have an idea... Maybe have Savage and McQueen met at a track somewhere to have a race. Then have McQueen beat Savage at a race. It's only an idea, if you don't want to use it it's fine my me.-I have, it's in this chapter
I feel for Leah, I work with someone like that. I'm not going to say her name, but she grew up in the slums of Tampa. It was nice for McQueen to offer to bring Leah's mother to her. I feel for your dog. At least it was a back door. I did that to a dog I had a few years ago, but it was the car door. It cut the end of her tail off. Luckily the vet wasn't busy and was able to fix her tail. Her name Emma, but since she no longer had the tip of her tail, we playfully called her Bobbi(as in a bobtail) LOL!-Oh...dear! That had to hurt! I'm glad that she recovered.
Well Savage isn't as tough as he was acting. Screaming like a woman, he won't be able to live that one down, for a while...if ever. Sheriff might be old, but he doesn't miss a thing. McQueen is treating Leah like an other brother, good job! Maybe you can have them working together, like they were partners or something like that.-Once they get trained. I'm planning on that
Oh how cute! My dogs run to the door when I get home. They act all tough, until they see who is it. Then they get all kinds of happy. Looks like Tara has been training Chavo, because he sat when McQueen told him to. My dogs don't listen to anyone when they are exited about something.-I think that all dogs do a little "happy dance" when their owners come home!
My dogs don't watch TV, even when they hear other dogs. It was cute though. I've seen the puppy bowl a few times, it was cute, but I wouldn't want to watch it for hours. I have a feeling that Sheriff is going to find out that McQueen got sick and refused to go to the hospital. To tech McQueen can't disobey an order, he should punish him in some way. -Yes, Dunkin did scold Lightning for not obeying him. In stead of punishing him, Dunkin sat him down and counseled him, which in my book, works better than just discipline.
'Horny old man'-I nearly fell out of my chair laughing, good job! McQueen and Doc sure share a close bond.-Yep, when you have a close relationship with somebody, you grow get to know them very well!
Chavo drinking out to the toilet.. very funny! My dogs have short legs, so I don't have that problem. They are Corgis. Average sized dogs, with very short legs. The Queen of England has a pile of them.-I had a dog that was half Corgi and half popmerarioan. She had a little head, and HUGE ears!
McQueen's tickle attack was cute. At least he didn't get to mad at Tara.-Like I said, my father used to do it to me!
I bet the tornado was terrifying for Tara. I feel she should watch the movie, it would have helped her get over her fear. -I know, but I couldn't think of anything for her parents to say something to her. I just left it the way I originally had it written.
I liked that idea that Sheriff is treating McQueen exactly the same way as he treats the other deputies. If McQueen wants to be a deputy, he should not get any special treatment.- I agree!
I have no doubts that Scarlett would punish McQueen or any of her deputies for disobeying orders. Maybe have one the deputies disobey an order, that way McQueen and the other newbies can see what would happen if they disobeyed her. It's just an idea, you doesn't have to use it. Good job with the chapters, I love this story.-I've been working on something like that, I don't know were or when it'll show up in the story.
