SONGS:

Dutchy was driving back to Cairns after spending a few days with his sister and family who was two hour drive from Cairns and since Hammersley was in port and the crew got two week shore leave, he decided to go and spend some time with them.

Plus he let Mike and Kate know just in case they crash sailed while he was away.

Dutchy was listening to some music when he noticed a car park on the side of the road and a woman next to it looking at her tire. So he slowed down and he parked his car behind hers. He got out and walked over to her as he lifted his sunglasses and popped them on top of his head.

"Hi, you got a flat tire?" She turned to dutchy.

"Yeah, the first time it happened to me. I don't know how to change a tire" Dutchty smiled.

"Well you're in luck ma'am. I do. Would you like for me to change it for you" she smile

"thanks"

"Great can you pop the boot of your car" she look at him in shocked

"what no way" dutchy frond then smile

"Ma'am if you want your tire change, i need to get the spare tire which would be in the boot of your car"

"there no tire in there, i never seen a tire in there"

"Ma'am there would be a tire in there under the floorboard. Let me show you. If you're worried that I'm going to hurt you, I won't" he said calmly.

She thought about it. "Ok, but no funny business"

"I promise ma'am" She walks to her car door and opens it then she pulls a lever that pops the boot which Dutchy heard. Then she closed the door.

Dutchy open the boot of her car and lift the floor board. He notice the women moving slowly towards the boot of her car. She stops and looks in the boot when Dutchy moves the floor board. He got the tire out and checked it over before putting it on the ground then he reached in and grabbed the tire iron and the jack.

"What are you doing?" she asked nervously

"Getting the tire iron and the jack out. It what needed for me to change the tire"

He then rolled the tire around to the front driver side and crouched down and started changing the tire. The woman watches him like a hawk as he changes the tire.

When done, he moved the flat tire to the back of the car. He put the tire iron and jack into the car then he lifted the tire into the boot then he stopped and moved it around a bit when he saw what caused her to have the flat tire.

"Ma'am here is the cause of your flat tire. You got a nail in it" he pointed to where the nail is.

She slowly stepped forward and saw what he was pointing at. "Ok can you put it away"

"sure" he put it in where the tire went and put the floorboard back in its place then closed the boot. "There you can go back on the road. But some advice ma'am go to the nearest tire dealer and get your tire fixed and don't go over eighty while using the spare tire."

"will do" she walked around and got into her car then drove off.

Dutchy shook his head. "She didn't even thank me" he got back into his car when he received a crash sail text message.

Then his phone rings so he answer it "X i received crash sail text… i'll be there in an hour… five K out of Cairns… sure thing X". Then he hung up and put his phone back in its normal spot then started his car and drove home.

Two months later Dutchy, who got six hour shore leave, was at the supermarket getting some items and some things for dinner at home when he noticed a woman was following him around the store. He stopped next to a woman who was trying to get an item from the top shelf.

"Need some help there ma'am" she turn around and smile

"Yes please, the yellow tin" she stepped back and dutchy stepped forward taking the tin off the shelf and passing it to her.

"Here you go ma'am"

"thank you can you get two more please"

"Sure" he got two more and put them in her trolley. "Here you go ma'am, cute baby"

"that he is, just like his father a water baby"

"you never know he might follow in your husband footsteps whatever he does ma'am"

"You never know he might join the navy like the past four generations"

"your husband in the navy ma'am"

"Yes he is and i'm also in the navy" dutchy smile

"Same here, what boat is your husband on? I'm on Hammersley"

"your on Mike flynn boat"

"you know the captain?" she laugh

"Who in the navy doesn't know mighty mike flynn"

"Good point. I know he got a reparation and has been for years"

"True, so what is it like working with him and princess perfect McGregor"

"You know that XO"

"Yeah we went through ADFA and watson bay together. I thought she would be promoted by now?"

"So did the crew, but she wasn't on the list"

"Perhaps she needed more experience?"

"From the time I worked with her, she worked as both XO and captain a number of times and commander Flynn let her be acting captain for the experience. Plus she finished and passed all the courses she needed to do. The crew and I were shocked that she didn't get promoted."

"Well something sure stops her from getting promoted?"

"Question is who or what. But hopefully she might get it next year"

"Who knows. I'll let you return back to your shopping and thank you for your help"

"No worries ma'am. Enjoy your afternoon"

"I will and you to"

Then Dutchy walked away noticing the woman who was following him was on the phone. Few minutes later Dutchy was walking back to his car. He noticed the same woman was following him while still on the phone when he and other shoppers heard police sirens and saw the cars getting closer then they stopped a couple cars down from his car when he heard.

"That him officers, the the man who try to rape me, shot him" dutchty turn around to see the woman yelling and pointing at him. Then he noticed people looking at the woman and at him.

"You going away for a long time, you rapest, take a good look every one, this man try to rape me" she said yelling.

"What are you talking about ma'am? I don't know you, we've never met before and I'm no rapist."

"Your a liar, you raped me" she said yelling.

"No lady, you the one who is lying and causing a scene here, not me"

Then he saw cops walking over to him with their weapons pointing at him. "Put the bag on the ground and put your hands behind your back" dutchy looked confused but did what he was told.

An officer step ford and put cuffs on him "what's going on officer"

"You're under arrest for the attemping to rapping a woman" Dutchty was shocked with the allegations.

"What are you taking about, what rape. I've never rape any woman. And that crazy woman who was yelling at me, I never met her before. But i notice she was following my around in the supermarket while i was doing my shopping"

"The rape victim identfired you in the supermarket and call triple zero. You rape her two months ago. Now let's go" he pulled dutchy towards his patrol car.

"Officer, there has to be a mistake. Two months ago I was out at sea" the officer opened the back door.

"What are you in the navy?"

"Yes sir, my ID is in my wallet. I work on HMAS Hammersley, the captain is Commander Flynn"

"what is your name"

"Petty officer Dylan Mulholland. My ID in my wallet" Dutchy turn to the side so the officer could get his wallet out. "Call NAVCOM they can give you the dates and times of when Hammersley wasn't in port" the officer opened Dutchy's wallet and saw his driver's license and navy ID.

"I'll get it check out down at the station, now have you got any weapons on you"

"just my phone and keys"

"what this around your neck" he pull it from under Dutchy tee shirt when Dutchy said

"My navy dog tags"

"Ok, now i have to read out your rights"

"I understand, officer. But why would I risk my navy career in rapeing a woman" the officer read out dutchy rights as he removed the cellphone and car keys which he passed to another officer, then put him in his car. Then he and his partner got in and drove to the station.

"Constable don't you think it odd that the women first said that i try to rape her then a minute later she said that i rape her. Why would she target me"

"We will talk about it down at the station"

"OK, what about my car?"

"It's going to be towed and inspected"

"Inspected for what?"

"Evidence?" Dutchy sat back shaking his head.

When they arrived at the station, they put dutchy into an interview room then the two officers went to make some phone calls. An hour later one officer pass an tablet to the detective who was investaging the rape case.

"John, this was in the glove department, it on but password protected"

"thanks, any idea why it's on"

"From the device that connected to it, it connected to the dash cam in the suspect car"

"Ok thanks"

Few minutes later two detectives walk into the room where Dutchy is. "Can you put your password in, we want to know what on it"

"Sure, if you can tell me what is going on. I was arrested for atemped rapeing a woman or rape a woman" dutchy said as he put in the password then it opened up. He passed it back to the detective.

"That is right. The woman from the supermarket is the victim, she was rape two months ago and she discribe you"

"Two months ago, what date and i can tell you where i was on that date"

"the tenth"

"the tenth…" dutchy thought about it.

"May i have my phone please, i can look up my calendar" the detective pass Dutchy his phone.

They watched what he was doing. "Here we go, it got here on the tenth. I got a pen on duty watch fifteen hundred, which is three o'clock. I was on my way back to Cairns from visiting my sister and family…. Crash sail" dutchy then brought up his text messages and showed them the text message and what time it was sent.

"Here is the crash sail message with time and date, when we get it, we have half an hour to an hour's notice to get on board. After the text message, my XO lieutenant Kate McGregor called me since she and commander Flynn knew I was out of Cairns for a few days just in case they we were crash sail. She called to find out where I was. I told her I was five k out of Cairns" He showed them the call display and what time Kate called.

"Ok, the victim said you follow her home after you help her with a flat tire"

"flat tire… I remember helping a woman with shoulder length blonde hair with the flat tire. She never thanked me. She drove off in her car and I walked back to mine when I got the text message. That woman at the supermarket got long brown hair" he looked at the tablet.

"I can prove i didn't follow and rape the woman"

"You got an aliaby?"

"It's in front of you detective, my dash cam, if i may" the detective slid the tablet to dutchy.

He went through the dates. Then brought up the tenth. Then he brought up the video, then he moved it to just before he saw the car, then set up the tablet on the table. "This is where it happened, the time and date of what happened. You can see the women in this video are different from the one at the supermarket" Dutchy said then he pressed play.

The two detectives watched what happened and they could hear dutchy cell phone ring the text tone, then the phone call. They hear one side of the conversation. Then when he drove back on the road.

"Here I'll speed it up. It would show where I went for the next hour till my car was at the navy car park" he pressed a couple of buttons and pressed play but it was three times faster.

They watched and saw which way he was going till his car was parked at the navy car park. Then he returns it back to normal speed then pulse it. "That what happen"

"Can we get a copy of this"

"sure, got a pen drive"

"We will get one. It clearly showed you did nothing wrong to the woman and you never touched her. Plus with the time stamp on your camera, you didn't follow the woman as she claimed you did follow her. From what we just saw you turn left on brown street where the victim didn't turn on that street. Plus the fact that the woman got two different hair styles. She must have worn a wig. That is why you didn't recognise her at the supermarket"

"It would have to be someone else with the same car as mine"

"How long have you had your car for?"

"six months. I did have another one but ended in a car accident which wasn't my fault. You can check the record about it."

"ok, we will get the pen drive for you and check out your car accident story."

"Am I being charged or not?"

"We are waiting to hear from HMAS Cairn navy base. But from what we saw on your dash cam it looks like you might be in the clear"

"If you can't get the information you are asking for. I can get them for you. And it will prove that the woman is lying"

"We will keep that in mind" they stood up and walked out the door, closing it behind them.

Five minutes later one of the detetives returned with a pen drive. "Any word from NAVCOM?"

"Yeah commander White i spoke to, she wont give us the information we need to clear you"

"May i use my phone, there someone i know who in the navy who i know who might be able to get it"

"sure" Then the detective left then returned a minute later with the phone.

Dutchy made the call and had it on speaker phone. "I'm calling Hammersley that the boat i'm on"

"Hammersley leader Dixson speaking"

"RO, it's Dutchy is the captain still on board"

"Yes he is, you want to talk to him"

"Yes i do"

"ok, i think he in the ship office" then there was a click and ringtone then they heard

"Hello lieutenant McGregor speaking"

"X it's Dutchy, is the boss there"

"dutchy, he went to get a brew, is there something i can help you with"

"Yeah, i'm at the police station, i was arrested" Kate was shocked.

"Arrest, what, what happened?" Kate said in shock.

"some woman clain i try to rape her two months ago. The cops got it on file but didn't know my name, only the description of my car and what I look like. This woman saw me at the supermarket and called the cops on me. I was arrested outside next to my car. The crazy woman yells out that i try to rape her. It was embarrassing X right in front of a lot of shoppers''

"What you never do that"

"I know that X, look, the police here want some navy information of the time and dates of when Hammersley was in port and when I was on duty. It's the only way to clear my name and to prove that the woman is lying"

"Why don't they contact commander White"

"they did X, she won't give them what they ask for. Look X i got you on speaker phone so Detetive Jones could hear everything. Here Detetive, Lieutenant McGregor, my XO on Hammersley"

"Lieutenant McGregor, can you get the information I need to clear this sailor name"

"What do you need, detective?"

"time and dates from when Hammersley was in port in the past three months and when Mr Mulholland was on duty"

"I'll talk to commander Flynn, that shouldn't be any problem. If i can get it, commander Flynn or myself will show up at the station Detetive"

"thank you lieutenant" then he hung up.

"All you can do is wait"

"Yeah, here is the copy of the video" Dutchy passed the pen drive to the detective.

"Thanks, do you need anything"

"I need to use the head, i mean the loos"

"sure, i'll get a constable to take you"

"thanks"

An hour later Mike and Kate walk into the station, they were still in their DBNU. "Hi, can i help you commander, lieutenant" constable asked.

"Yes Detetive jones is expecting us," Mike said.

"Sure i'll go and get him" then he walked through the door.

Couple minutes later another door opened. "Lieutenant McGregor"

"Detetive Jones" they shook hands. "This is commander flynn captain of Hammersley"

"hi it nice to meet you commander"

"Detetive Jones" they shook hands.

"We got the information you asked for," Kate said, passing the detective a file.

"Great come with me, there some questions i want to ask you both"

"sure" they follow him through a door.

Fifteen minutes later Dutchy stood up when Mike and Kate walked into the room. "Boss, X"

"dutchy, how are you holding up? Kate told me what happen" Mike said.

"I just want this over with"

"It will be. We spoke to Detetive Jones and gave him the information he asked for."

"thanks boss."

"I got JJ to swap shifts with you" Kate said.

"Thanks X. I didn't know how much longer i was going to be here for"

"We understand. Now tell us everything that happen" Mike said.

"Sure"

They sat down and talked about what happened at the supermarket and what happened two months ago. By the time he finished telling them they were puzzled like dutchy is to why the woman was targeting dutchy.

"One thing i'm going to do before we set sail boss, X and that i buy bird flowers to thank her"

"Why that dutchy" Mike asked.

"Her birthday gift save me from going to prison and getting kick out of the navy for something i didn't do"

"what was it that she got you?" Kate asked.

"A dash cam, she suggested that I get a tablet and solopanel to recharge the tablet while we are out at sea. It was the best decisions that i ever made thanks to bird"

"Why did she get you a dash cam?" Mike asked.

"Six months ago I gave her a lift to her place. On the way is when we had that car accident with my other car. The driver said it was my fault and he was going to sue me for the damage to his car. But luckily there were witnesses. Three of the cars got dashcam. One was behind us. It recorded what happened. The driver sent a copy to the police and to my insurance company. It showed it was the other driver's fault. His insurance company ended up paying for a new car for me. Plus the bird said I should get a dash cam, cause you never know it might happen again or I witnessed an accident myself. At least I'll have proof that I wasn't in the wrong."

"Well it sure paid off dutchy" Kate said.

"Yes it is alright" Fifteen minutes later the door opens.

"Mr Mulholland, you are free to go" the detective said, passing him his things back including his car keys.

"Thanks, so i'm in the clear"

"Yes thanks to the dash cam footage and information from commander Flynn and lieutenant McGregor"

"Any idea why the woman said that i try to rape her?"

"We don't know why, but from the phone call on the tenth when she called about the attempted rape happen at her place to were you where. There was no way that you were out at sea with twenty one navy witnesses to say you were there on board as well being in the woman's apartment at the same time."

"Question is did that attempted rape happen or not?" Kate asked.

"I think she made it up to get some sort of compensation from someone like your crew mate here. since the neighbors never heard her scream, only throwing things around her apartment. Plus they never saw anyone go in or out. One neighbor got security cameras. He just called a few minutes ago, he was going to bring in his video recording from back then. Then we will know if what she saying is true or not"

"Ok thanks for clearing things up for me. But now people would think i'm a rapist after what happen outside the supermarket"

"About that, leave it with us. We will get it sorted"

"thanks" they shook hands and walked out of the room.

When Mike, Kate and Dutchy walk outside. Dutchy saw his car in the parking lot. "See you in couple of days" dutchy said

"enjoy what left of your shore leave Dutchy"

"thanks… boss, X" he gave them a head nudge. They turn to see a woman walking across the road and over to them. When she saw Dutchy her eyes widened.

"You, what are you doing out of jail you rape me" she said yelling.

"What are you talking about, i never touch you"

"yes you did, you followed me and attack me in my own home, you raped me" she said yelling Mike, Kate and dutchy notice that she said that Dutchy raped her when the cops said it was attempted rape.

"I don't know where you live. In Fact you lie to the cops about your attack"

"I did not lie," she said, yelling.

"Yes you did, i wasn't in Cairns at the time you claim i raped you. I was out at sea at the time. So there was no way in hell i would be at two places at once"

"your lying, you would get you mates to cover for you"

"you saying that twenty one navy officers and sailors would lie" she look at dutchy in shocked

"Navy, your navy"

"That right, I was called back because the boat I'm working on crashed because of an emergency situation out at sea. The police have got a video recording from my dash cam about the day I changed your tire and they got copies of when the boat I was on was in port. So they know that you were either lying or there was someone close to looking like me out there who might be the rapist. After what you did at the supermarket, now people would think that I'm the rapist, when I'm not. You need to apologize to me for what you put me through and make a public apology in the paper for what you did." Then his phone rings just as Mike and Kate have at the same time. Dutchy open his

"Crash sail, boss, X, i'll head home then to Hammersley"

"ok dutchy see you there in fifteen minutes"

"Yes boss" then he turned and walked back to his car and got it winding down the window and looked at the woman.

"You almost cost me my job and career in the navy for your false allegations, I hope you're happy now" then he started his car up and drove away.

Three days later it was in the paper about the false allegations against Dutchy and that he isn't a rapist. And that the woman who claim that Dutchy broke into her house and try to rape her.

She was charged for giving false statements, wasting police time and embarrassing a navy war vet and hero in public. With all the evidence against her, she went to court and plead guilty for everything she did in the past three months. She had a mental valuation done to find out if there was something wrong with the woman.

The police, lawyers and judge learn from the woman's wealthy family that what she did was to get attention and Dutchy was the victim since he stopped to change the tire when she knew how to change it and learned it was a set up from the start.

She was sent to prison for three years and to pay Dutchy twenty five thousand dollars in compensation for what she put him through.

When Hammersley returned the woman's parents were waiting on the wharf with Maxine. They got to meet Dutchy in person and they apologized for what their daughter did to him. They talk while on Hammersley dining room with Mike and Kate present since Maxine had to return back to NAVCOM.

They learn why the woman acts out like she did and they understand. "It's not your fault that your daughter turned out the way she did sir. You did what you could while she was growing up. She is an adult now and she has to learn to take her own responsibilities for what she has done" dutchy said.

"We know," the woman said.

Couple hours later Dutchy arrived at goat central. He got the items out of his car and walked up the steps and around the pool. He walks towards Jessica Bird place where he knocks on her door since he could hear music coming from inside since the windows were open so he knows she is home. He waited till the sliding door opened.

"Dutchy this is a surprise, come on in"

"thanks bird" he walked in closing the door behind him.

"Is everything alright?" Bird asked.

"I want to give you these" he pulled out from behind his back bouquet of artificial yellow roses.

"Wow,they are beautiful but why did you give them to me"

"Remember the dash cam you got me for my birthday"

"Yeah I remember. I remember saying to you a month earlier after that car accident that you should get a dash cam then you could report the driver to the police since you would have evidence." Dutchy smiles remembering that day.

"Well thanks to you for getting me that dash cam. It had save my career"

"Career, why what happened? I heard that you where charge for trying to rape a woman" they sat down at the breakfast bar where he put the flowers on the bench then he turn to bird. He told her what had happened which shocked bird. when he finished telling her what happened.

"I'm please that the dash cam help prove that you were telling the truth dutchy"

"Same here. Because of what she done, there number of charges against her and she plead guilty"

"Well as the old saying goes…. You do the crime, you do the time"

"that is so true"

"She was the true Karen who went crazy, wild," Dutchy laughed.

When Ductchy received the money, he took bird out to dinner when they had next shore leave as a thank you gift.

The end
