After two nights spent in the cornfield and the assurance their mother would be home, the kirk boys wandered back to the house. When they arrived they saw their other, with two officers. Jim sighed, not again he thought. Sam paused and was ready to turn back when one officer spotted them,

"There they are! Kirk boys, front and center, now!" Winoa rolled her eyes and told the officer that her sons were neither criminals nor soldiers, they both ignored her.

"George Samuel Kirk: you have missed enough school to be charged with truancy. On this day you will be taken to a juvenile detention center, where you will receive an education there. Only good behavior will return you here to your family." He turned to the other kirk, "James Tiberius Kirk: due to the continual fights caused upon your classmates have received a detention from your school. Only due to your younger age than the others is the reason for the leniency of the punishment. During this time you will be required to serve the department." Jim glared, "and possibly, learn to respect authority."

Winoa shook her head as Sam rode away with the officers down the road, Jim turned to his other,

"It's your husband's fault we didn't come home or go back to school. The kids at school started the fight. You son was passed out for hours before he awoke and you didn't even try to stop them." Winoa's eyes began to tear up, "will you stop the when they take me?" Jim turned and walked away from the house, Winoa cried out,

"Jimmy, where are you going?" Jim sighed

"Nowhere…"
