Minuets later Chance was on the spot. Calli kept an especially close eye on him. He was the one with the spotted past.

"Mr. Furlong, correct?"

"Yes?"

"Is that an assumed name?"

"No sir."

"We found the jet at your hangar. We know you were involved. How?"

"I ran all the test flights."

"Is that all?"

"Yes."

"Your record says you were uncontious when they found you after the crash. Give em an overview of what happened."

"Jake had hit the target, but Feral was locked on as well. We hit the target and Feral got mad shooting out our thrusters. Kiva then sent the uplink. Kiva got caught and she was taken away. Manual overdrive kicked in, wich she programmed it to do. When we were hit again we crashed. Feral fired us both. Kiva went to argue her point and he fired her too."

"Thank you, Furlong. Now, what happend after you were fired?"

"Calli faught it in court."

"And why did she fight it?"

"That's for her and me only."

"This interview is done. Throw him in with Clawson."

"Hell that hurts!"

"Chance!"

"Jake!"

The two buddies extanged hugs. "Kiva's asleep. Or I hope she is. She was hit pretty hard."

"Hit?"

"They shoved her right into the wall. She has a large gash on her forehead. I told them but no one's going to do anything. After all, she is getting death."

"Right."

"Did you tell Jace?"

"Yes. They have him now. Chances are he'll be put with, or across from us. They don't seporate prime suspects."

"Hard to believe this is happening. We were so careful for all those years...then.."

"Jake, don't beat yourself up over it. It wasn't your fault."

"No, it is."

"Why?"

"I let Kiva take control. I got involved without learning. I knew her from enforcers and thought she was doing ok. All of a sudden she dived, I should have taken control, but I didn't. She landed in the woods and we went in blindly. She got caught, and since I had a crush on her, I went after her..."

"Well, dad, that's a first. I don't think you've ever admitted to being in love." Shrieked Jace from across the room.

"Long time no see lil buddy."

"Yeah."

"Did you tell them anything?"

"No, looks like were in the clear. Kiva is another story."

"Did you catch when her procecution date was?"

"Tomorrow."

Suddenly another uniformed officer walked in. Flashed his badge to the guard. He went over and took Kiva, who was still out cold, hit her waking her up, and took Jace out.

"Where are you going with them??????"

"Feral wants to talk to them. What's it to you?"

He growled. "I swear Chance, if they hurt either of them."

"Jake, don't."

"So...Kiva, why didn't you say anything?"

!

"Your an arrogant SOB. I spent 5 years working for you and you didn't care a bit."

"Why did you protect them?"

"They were friends. They are friends."

"Right, and your my daughter."

"I am."

"We found that out."

"Just kill me and get it over with, I'm not telling you anything."

"If I authorize the jets, confess to Jake and CHance, and give you all your jobs back, will you tell me who called you in all these times?"

"Not without a witness. One I can trust."

"You have five minuets."

She got up and left the room in the presence of a guard, and back to the cells.

"He wants me to find a witness..."

"To what?" asked Chance.

"I can't tell you. I need to find someone I can trust. I trust both of you. Toss up."

"Heads!" yelled Jake.

Chance growled and threw the coin at him. "You hate it when I beat you to it, don't ya?"

"Bite me."

"Feral's job, sorry."

"Guard, I found one!" She shouted.

The guard unlocked the door. "Wich one, Mrs. Feral?"

"The orange one."

"Orange, come with me."

Kiva followed suit and landed, once again, in Feral's office.

"Happy, Kiva?"

"Yes. Now start!" Kiva hit a button on her watch.

"Jake, I admit that I was the one who took your jet down. Chance will be told said truth too. I also want to offer the three of you your jobs back, or I can authorize the jets and let you run with the big dogs. I really didn't want to loose you two, you were the best on our team. Kiva pointed it out the last time she was here, and I was never able to admit it. All I ask is you tell us who kept calling you in."

Jake looked at Kiva. "Shake both of us."

They all shook hands. This signified that it was true, if not Kiva always had a backup plan.

"One other thing, you can't do anything to the person we tell you."

They got THAT in writing. "Jake? Kiva?"

Both spoke up. "Mayor Calli..."

Calli then walked in. "Thats' right, I did it. I couldn't see you doing what you did to them. They wern't at all at fault. And I fired you, why are you still here Lt. Feral?"

"I know you fired me. And I won't go without signature."

She thrust a peice of paper at him. "Signed."

Jake started laughing. "Feral, you better start packing."

He growled. "I will get you, Clawson."

"By the way, we were perfectly justified."

"What?"

Jake threw the folded set of papers and 2 liscences at him. "Mine and Chaces liscences, as well as a presidental order to keep our line running. It's still S.O. and if word gets back to the president that you or anyone other then who we choose hears about this, you are to be held by the president. Feral, we were smart, we got records, we got authorization. You wern't doing your job. Calli knew, Calli said nothing because she was told not to. Bye."

He growled again. "By the way, Feral. My name isn't the same as yours. You are my biological father, but I still am technically not your daughter. And you, my friend, are not my father."
