guest 2-Hey! Great going with the training. Poor Leah. Savage should pay the price more for hurting Leah that way and not owning up. Haha! Good with Lightning out running Savage and the words about his daughter having bigger balls than Savage.-I know. The perfect way to insult macho man is to compare him to a little girl. Besides Lightning knows that Tara can take care of herself when she needs to.

Lightning's still got his self defence skills which is good. You can't block every strike in a fight I'll admit. Even Bruce Lee or all the other top martial artists can't block everything.- I agree. I like to watch Bruce Lee fight, his movement is like water. He makes even difficult moves look easy. It's a shame that he passed so young. I liked his movies. Some the fight seens were so corny, you couldn't help but laugh at them. I loved when he kicked Chuck Norris's butt in The Way Of The Dragon. You guys should watch it, IT'S AWASOME!

Please have Lightning certified as a full time regular deputy soon with the motivation for all firearms and other things.-It should be coming up soon...

Here's another idea if you like it. Maybe have Plato harass Thunder, he gets caught by Lightning and gets arrested. Your choice its just an idea. Good job-Thanks. Lightning does arrest Plato, but not for harassing Thunder. That chapter is what I'm working on now, so I can't how it'll turn out.

If you like please have Lightning knock more sense in to Savage for belittling Lightning and for hurting Leah.-I'm struggling on how Lightning can get back at Savage without getting himself into trouble. I would love to say that Lightning would beat the crap out of him, but that will only get him into some serous trouble. IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEA I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR THEM!

I'd like to see how rough Scarlett can really be so please maybe have Savage disobey an order and he gets punished. See what you think.-As soon as find place for it, I'll write something in. I don't think it'll be anytime soon though.

Lightning's too smart to disobey orders coz he knows the penalties. Hope you have the deputies trained in all the other advanced and powerful firearms.-Yeah, Lightning might be a bone head at times, but he has matured over the years. As for the other weapons, I'm properly not going to write anything about it, since it would be just like when they trained with the handguns.

Oliver is very intimidating but in a good and encouraging way-Oliver was only to be a minor character that would make an appearance every now and then. Somehow he has "charmed" himself into a much larger roll. Besides a reader commented that I have a lot of charters, so instead of writing any more in, Oliver got the job instead.

Twister2021-Nice work on this chapter. I would like to see if you can do a tribute to Paul Walker at Tara's first race.- I don't know if I'll use it. I already have a lot of "stuff" going on at the first race. Besides I didn't care for his movies.

Are you doing better today?-I'm feeling a lot better, Thanks.

Qwerty-The McQueens should get a stalker. It could be one of lighting or Sally's friends from the bachelor and bachelorette parties (I'm rereading distractions).-I have gone back and reread some of the other stories too when I don't feel like writing.

Chapter 36. - Lightning Breaks The Rules-

Scarlett arrived at the stadium. "Good afternoon, Scarlett" Dunkin said. "We're just about done for the day." While Scarlett talked with her father about Leah's injury,

Lightning saw Sally arrive at the stadium. Although he knew it was against the rules, Lightning dove over to and kissed Sally deeply. "Deputy McQueen." Dunkin barked

"That's against regulation, do fifty laps now!"Ós rud é nuair a bheidh sé i gcoinne na rialacha a póg leat?"(Since when is it against the rules to kiss you?)" Lightning grumbled.

"ba chóir dom a bheith in ann a póg tú aon uair is dóigh liom mhaith é.(I should be able to kiss you whenever I feel like it.)" "Téigh ... sula n-éiríonn Sheriff ndáiríre buile

(Go… before Sheriff gets really mad)" Sally said. "Níl mé ag iarraidh a fhaigheann tú isteach ar aon deacracht níos mó. (I don't want you get into any more trouble.)" "NOW!

Deputy McQueen!" Dunkin ordered. "You'll have all evening to spend with your wife!" Lightning saluted him and drove away to start his laps. Sally drove over to Dunkin "It's

my fault, Sheriff" Sally said "I was the one that called him over." "I know that" Dunkin said. "You know better too. So don't let it happen again." Dunkin then drove away with

out another word. Sally just smiled as Lightning raced by her. "At least Stickers be tired when he gets home." Sally said to herself as she left the stadium. With the training

done for the day Dunkin sent everyone home, except Lightning, who was still doing laps. Lightning did mange to send a message to Sally. He asked her to check on Leah and

told her what had happed. Sally sent a message back that she was heading to the hospital. Dunkin saw that Lightning was grinning, and seemed to be enjoying himself, so

Dunkin got on the radio. "Lightning, you better not be enjoying this" Dunkin said "Its discipline, and discipline shouldn't be fun." "Oh! So… you want me to do anther fifty

laps!" Lightning asked "I'm just getting warmed up." "No" Dunkin said "I would like to go home sometime tonight. **quietly to Scarlett** I have a date with Jasmine." Scarlett

laughed. "He would keep us out here all night, if he wanted to" she said "It'll be nice to have a deputy that nobody can outrun." "I was just thinking that myself" Dunkin said

as they waited for Lightning to finish his laps. Twenty minutes later: Lightning finished his discipline and he came to a stop in front of Dunkin and Scarlett, panting slightly. He

saluted both of them. "You're free to go" Dunkin said. "Don't let me catch you making out with your wife while on duty again." Lightning said nothing, he just saluted them

before heading to the hospital to check on Leah. "So are you and Jasmine are getting along okay?" Scarlett asked as she and Dunkin headed back to town. "I'm glad I hooked

you two up." "I wanted to thank you for that" Dunkin said. "I haven't been with a woman for so long, I almost forgotten what it was like." Scarlett stopped and looked at her

father. "Dad! When I meant going on dates!" She said "Not the other kind of hooking up! When I arranged your first date, that never crossed my mind. I just wanted to find a

companion for you. I didn't like the idea of you being lone all the time." "I wasn't alone all the time" Dunkin said as he pressed his side to her. "I have you and the rest of the

deputies to keep me company. Besides how many dates did you and John go on before you started sleeping together?" "I don't know, I never counted them. It wasn't many."

Scarlett said "And look what happed." Dunkin felt Scarlett's baby bump against his side. "You don't have to worry about that, we're protected" Dunkin said. "And if something

goes wrong, well… I'm prepared to be a father again. Besides, condoms don't guarantee safe sex any more. A friend of mine was wearing one when he was shot by the

woman's husband" Scarlett laughed so hard she started to snort. "Okay…It's …that…idea" Scarlett stammered "You b-bein…" "You don't like the idea of me having sex" Dunkin

chuckled. "Now you know how I felt when I found out you and John were engaging in that activity." "Touché" she said. "As long as you and Jasmine are happy…that's all I'm

going to ask for." "Sweetheart" Dunkin said "Jasmine as awoken the naughty boy in me. She makes me feel like a young man again." "What ever makes you happy Daddy"

Scarlett kissed his fender before turning for home. "I'll see you in the morning." When Lightning reached the hospital, Leah was still in the emergency room. Lightning was

allowed to see her. Sally and Leah were talking when he arrived. "Hey!" Lightning said "How are you feeling?" "Right now, not to bad" Leah said. "Doc pumped me full of

painkillers when we got here." "He likes doing that" Lightning said. "He hates to see anyone in pain. How's your axle?" "It's broken" Leah said. "Doc said he was going to

consult another doctor, my break is in a weird spot, and he wanted another opinion before he treated it…I may need surgery." "Oh damn!" Lightning said "I knew Savage was

being to rough." "Doc said the same thing" Leah said "He was going to make an official report and give it to Dunkin. I have no idea what that would do." Doc then came

thought the curtain. "Well Kiddo…Oh Rookie!" Doc said, running into Lightning "When did you get here?" "A few minutes ago" Lightning said "I come to check on Leah." "She's

fine" Doc said. "Now…get out of here, I need to start her treatment." "I don't mind" Leah said. "Lightning can stay if he wants." "If you were a male, I wouldn't have a problem

with that" Doc said "I'm going to need the rear half of you naked…so Light will have to wait in the waiting room." "I have a better idea" Sally said "He can go home and

prepare one of the guest room. Leah has already agreed to stay with us for a few days." "Well… I didn't have much of a choice." Leah said "You kind of demanded." "Get used

to it" Lightning said "She does that a lot." Sally slapped Lightning's side. "I do not!" Sally demanded "Go… home… and get a room ready!" "See…there's your proof." Lightning

said playfully, dodging another on of Sally's slaps. "Just call me when you're on your way." Lightning and Sally kissed before Lightning headed home. Three hours later:

Lightning was working in his office when his phone rang. It was Sally. Leah just been loaded into a transport and they were heading home. "How's Leah?" Lightning asked "Did

she need surgery?" "No" Sally said "Doc was able to get it braced with just using some external rods and heavy wrapping. Is her room ready?" "Yes" Lightning said "I decided

on the one across from Tara's room. It's the closest one to our room as well." "That's a good idea" Sally said "We will be close if she needs it. Make sure Tara knows that Leah

is coming, and keep Chavo out of the way." "She knows" Lightning said "I've already told her." "Good" Sally said "We'll be home in twenty minutes." In a half, an hour the

transport arrived and with John and Lightning, helping her Leah made it to her bedroom. Maria and Sally helped Leah get settled. "Leah can I tell you one thing" Sally said

"Don't let Maria mother you to much, it's something she has a habit of doing. I like to call her my mother-in-sprit. I might be her employer, but that never stops Maria from

scolding me when I have done something wrong." Sally then handed Leah the remote to the TV and showed her how to use the house's intercom. "Here's my phone number"

Sally said "Don't hesitate to use it if you need me for something, properly won't need it, Maria will hover over you for a while. Tara's room is right across from yours. Maria's

room is down the hall on the right, John's room is right across from Maria's, and mine and Lightning's is down the hall on the right. I know you haven't had any supper, are

you hungry?" Leah hesitated, but her stomach gurgled at the mention of food. "Leah you're a guest in our home" Sally said "If your hungry, tell me and I can fix you

something." Tears came to Leah's eyes. "I can't" she said "You're a billionaire business woman. I can't ask you to cook for me." "I'm also your friend" Sally said "And friends

take care of each other." Leah heisted again. "Tell me want you want" Sally said. "Or I just cook something and bring it to you." "Do you have any oatmeal?" Leah asked "I

don't feel like eating much." "Sure" Sally said "One bowl of oatmeal coming up." The next morning: Savage and Dunkin were at headquarters. "Leah and Lightning are not

here." Savage growled "I'm assuming that you are going to fire them for not showing up for duty?" "They have ten minutes." Dunkin said "What's your problem with them?"

"Permission to speak freely" Savage snarled, Dunkin nodded. "My problem is that they are not cut out to be cops. I mean that racecar should stick to racing and leave the

policing to us. As for Leah,… a woman's place is in the home. Taking care of house, raising children, and most importantly… pleasuring us. Do you know that Leah is a former

hooker?" Dunkin immediately bristled. "Savage, I'm know Leah's history. Just as I know your history, and Lightning's. I would be careful about what you say. You are still on a

probationary period, it wouldn't be hard to dismiss you from the department." Dunkin said "Scarlett and I do not discriminate when it comes to who works for us. Some of our

best deputies are women. Leah is young, but I can say she has more desire to be a deputy than you do. She graduated at the top of her class, she'll make an excellent

deputy. Yes.. I'll admit that I doubts about Lightning becoming a deputy. But he has worked harder and longer than you have and Leah put together. Once he masters the use

of his firearm, I believe he too will make a excellent deputy." "But he's doing it as a publicity stunt" Savage growled. "His daughter is going to be racing in a few weeks, so

he'll take off with her!" "And that's why Lightning offered to be a volunteer" Dunkin said. "We knew he'll travel with Tara when the racing season starts. Don't ever my choices

again, young man. If you ever become sheriff, then you can decide on who you want in the department!" Dunkin and Savage heard voices in the hall. A few seconds later

Lightning rolled though the door. "Leah isn't here" Savage said as he look at the clock on the wall. "If she isn't going to show up…you need to fire her." "DEPUTY DREAD! I

WILL NOT TOLERATE YOU GIVING ME ORDERS! SON, YOU NEED TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!" Dunkin shouted "This is my only warning, do it again and you'll be looking for

another job!" "By the way Savage" Leah said as she hobbled in. "I'm here, and I'm on time! Thanks to Lightning's transporter." "Mack was board…and he was driving me crazy

with calling me a dozen times a day so see if there was anything I wanted him to do." Lightning said "He likes driving people abound, and it gives him something to do."

"What are you doing here?" Savage sneered "You are no use to the department. especially if your axles break that easily!" "DEPUTY DREAD! WHAT DID I JUST TELL YOU

ABOUT KEEPING YOUR MOUTH SHUT!" Dunkin barked. Dunkin then opened a channel on his police radio "Sergeant Oliver Wrangler…report immediately to my office! Deputies

Tango and McQueen… open your manuals and start reading the chapters on crime seen processing. Deputy Dead… follow me!" Savage swallowed nervously and followed

Dunkin to his office. After Dunkin and Savage left the room. "Do you think that Dunkin is going to fire Savage?" Lightning asked "I would love to be a fly on the wall for that

meeting." "I doubt it" Leah said as she hobbled over to the table and opened her book. "He'll get his rear chewed out, like you did. Then he'll properly take him out and have

him doing laps at the butte, that's properly what he wants Oliver for. Come on Light, we need to get busy… we don't want to get in trouble too." Lightning drove over to the

table and he opened his book and started reading. A half an hour later: Leah was in the middle of showing Lightning how to handle possible evidence when Dunkin rolled back

into the room, looking very angry. On the dry erase board there was a drawing of a drug store. At the top it said 'robbed twenty minutes ago.' "Well I'm glad to see somebody

knows how to follow orders" Dunkin said. "Savage will be joining us in a little while. After Sergeant Wrangler works some of that cockiness out of him. What are you two

doing?" "We are trying to determine if this weapon was used the robbery of the drug store. The table is our simulated crime seen." Leah said as she pointed to the board and

then a eraser that was laying on the table in front of them. "I was telling Lightning that it might be evidence." The eraser had a piece of paper on it that said 'subject's gun'.

"All right Deputy Tango, since you seem to know what you're doing" Dunkin said looking pleased. "Show us how you would collect the evidence." Leah got a long handled

tweezers looking device out of her trunk and attached to her rim. She then proceeded to pick the evidence up, put it, and zip lock bag. She marked on the bag where and

when she found it. Then she laid the bag in fount of Dunkin. "That's pretty good. If the table is part of the crime seen, shouldn't you check around to see if there is anything

else you could collect as evidence?" Dunkin said and pointed to another eraser(also marked 'subject's gun') as well as some markers('subject's knives') that were laying close

by. Who knows, these 'weapons' might have been used as well." Leah just stood there looking dejected. "Don't be upset." Dunkin said "You did good job. It takes time and

practice to get good at evidence collecting." When Dunkin was finished with explaining all the things that go into evidence collecting, he called for a fifteen-minute break.
