Chapter 3
6 days ago…
When Kevin reported the situation to his boss Sam Young, he knew he had crossed path with Horatio Caine. It wasn't like Horatio was any celebrity in the FBI office in Miami. He was more like a thorn. People that cross path with the Lieutenant knew he wasn't one to mess with. Not only did Horatio give out this unspeakable energy and power, the FBI often needed his knowledge with their operations. Horatio knew Miami like his own backyard. Every corner, every criminal organization, every inch of this city were very familiar to Horatio.
"Alright Kevin, I will see what I can do about the car and Horatio." Sam Young sighed as he looked over his daily schedule. He didn't want to call in favorites, but with Horatio Caine, he couldn't just go there and threatening him with a FBI badge.
After Kevin walked out of his office, Young picked up the phone and called his former classmate from the academy, Rick Stetler. Young and Stetler were not buddies, but Stetler owed Young a favorite. Back in the days when Stetler was still in the academy with Young, he ran into some trouble when he lost a training gun. It was Young that helped Stetler initially covered-up the incident and later found the gun. It was time to call back this favorite.
"Stetler, this is Young. It is about Horatio Caine."
IAB Sergeant Rick Stetler: " 'H'. You see, that could be interpreted as a lack of respect for a superior."
Lieutenant Horatio Caine: "You know, I am willing to take that chance."
