The ticket V
amber looked out figurehead and watched a Cadillac Limo coming up the private road. She opened the nominal head door as the limousine came to a stopover. The number one wood got out and opened both rear doors. Out of the left rump stepped a very business like ma'am with Corvus corax Black person tomentum ... She was beautiful, Amber guessed her age to be in her 1950s. On the right hand a younger woman also with sinister hair and a dark tint to her skin. gold guessed Native American and early thirties. The older cleaning woman waited for the unseasoned woman before either started up the whole tone.
The older lady extended her hand to Amber,"You Must be Amber, Mr Walker's description does n't do you justice. I am Connie Saunders Senior lawyer With the aboriginal American language Council, Texas Division. This, she pointed to her jr. companion, is Mr John Walker's Atty also from the Native American Council from OK City, Celeste Rainwater."
After the first appearance Amber showed them to the office. Most of the talking was done by MS Saunders. In a nut scale She would be staying here at the mansion house and no foreigner would be allowed access to the manse or the belongings. The limo would take Celeste to as Mr Walker referred to it as the little home. Then the limo would then be released. Mr Walker told them a vehicle would be available if they needed one.
gold showed Ms Saunders to a guest way which was on the 1st flooring and near the part. amber laughed to herself just thinking what the crybaby at Fox, Fox & Shari were going to do when they came up against this old stager. She called Barbara to tell her to expect Celeste Rainwater soon.
Under Barbara 's bed was a cardboard box filled with the files that had been entrusted to her by Night go-cart. He had given her program line for Atty Rainwater to go through the file and see if she could find anything pertinent.
Ellen Met the limousine and took Celeste 's base to the node way. She and Mel was sharing the younger chum way. Barbara was in Night baby-walker old room. Celeste noticed there was a low room off the office and it contained a twin bed. She told Barbara to just get some sheets and a blanket and she would bunk in there. She said,"We might need that one later.

Josie and I arrived at the briny Gate of the Graveyard. Oscar Wells was on the swing shift."Hey man where did you get that truck Sam."
"Just bought it."I pointed to Josie and said."This is Josie might say she is one of my partners. My gramps left me half of a ranch and left the ranch doer the other half."
"Aw do n't narrate me you are going to leave us ?"I nodded"Hell that 's going to be like losing a family member. Heck Tommy is the baby of the family and he has been here 8 years."
"I will be here just long enough to get all the paper work done."I showed Josie to the barracks and to my room. Tommy Robert Tyre Jones was watching TV as we entered and I introduced Josie and told him she would be here for about a workweek or so."
Tommy says"No problem."
It was to late to do any thing tonight so I ordered in Pizza and asked Tommy to join us.. I picked up a key from Oscar and got Josie some plane and a blanket. She was n't crazy about the separation but understood not the time or place.
The next sunup we went to the Civilian force office. And went through the paperwork the large job was the fact I still had over five months of accrued leave which equaled a bit over $ 10,360.00 after I ceded 2 weeks pay in place of poster. Then we headed for the bank. I told them I would need $ 2000,00 immediate payment and was thinking about a cashiers check-out procedure for the quietus. The banker asked if I had a new chronicle they could channelize the monetary fund place. I told him that I did n't as yet.
"Where are you going to move."When I said canon TX He smiled and said,"That is cheeseparing Amarillo, we have a branch there so you really do n't postulate to close your account."
"How much will I have in the news report after I take out the $ 2000.00"
He calculated and said discounting the substantiation you have from your job."It comes out to $ 68,000.00"
I guess when you live like I did for the past 15 long time, It sort of accumulates.
We stopped by a ATT phone storehouse and I bought a bag phone ( Just a promissory note mobile phone were not commons then but car phone were. ) I called Amber and gave her the number and she was to pass it on to Barbara.
That night about 0100 there was a gun shooter. I leaped out of bed and rushed out face, Tommy was right behind me. We rushed to the safeguard hutch, no one was in survey I opened the threshold to find Ruben Rudiso on the floor and there was blood everywhere. Tommy grabbed the radio and called the police and told them to send an ambulance. I began to delay out Ruben.
I pulled off my tee shirt leaving me in my Boxer it appeared that the bullet had hit him in the rectify articulatio humeri. Ruben had been leaning back which cause the bullet to weight down and exit just above his teat. I stood up and reached for the walkie to scream the rovers. That movement is the only thing that saved me as two more jibe rang out.
Tommy reached up and turned out the sparkle, I felt around and found Ruben 's pistol the standard effect
.45 we carried on obligation. The moon was on the other incline of the shanty casting a phantasma on the doorway. I handed the walkie to Tommy and slipped out the doorway. Tommy warned the bird of passage of the peril.
I moved along the bound of the street I heard a whistling and looked across the street and could just attain out a image. A warm lighting on and off revealed it to be Josie, I was afraid for her but there was nothing I could do about it now. I crawled in to the route side of meat ditch and lay there scanning the priming coat ahead me.
I caught a slim movement ahead and to the left hand. Moved the lantern slide and jacked a shell into the chamber and aimed at where I had seen the movement. I guess the loading of the handgun made just enough noise to alarm the person ahead of me and he fired the smoke hit the ground to my left spatter dirt into my face. I fired back and he screamed and went down. Then I heard a secondment stroke and another scream.
I felt Josie 's hand on my shoulder. I could get wind sirens and told Josie to give me her gun and to get back into her carrell and not to number out trough I called her. She did n't debate and in a jiffy she was gone. The flashing twinkle and sirens got closer. I could vaguely make out a body ahead of me. I could n't evidence whether it moved or not. The lights stopped near the consistency and I heard doors opening. I stood and waved my arms. We have an offend man in the guard hut and there is another gunslinger up there as well. The policeman asked who I was and I told him I was one of the off duty guards.. The Guard who was on duty is seriously injured.
I asked the status of the torpedo,"He has a cephalalgia you bounced one off his skull."Another policeman spoke to the one I had been talking too. He turned to me,"We found blood on the other side but that one is gone."He walked me up to his car and asked me if I recognized the shooter.
I was surprised … I did realise him ... I explained that I had had a run in a few day ago with him and his partner In Flagstaff AZ the constabulary there should have info on the both of them. He asked if I had any thought why they were coming after me. I said I did n't know unless it had something to do with my inheritance and I explained about the DNA test.
He took my name and said I would require to get along to the police station in the daybreak to take out a deposition.
I walked back to the safety device shack. They had Ruben prepare to transport to the infirmary. One of the rover would take over Sir Peter Paul Rubens watch. I told him to enter into the log that the police had the sentry duty shack Pistol and gave him the policeman 's card. I noticed everyone staring at me. I realized that it was the scars on my chest that they were staring at, I smiled and said 'Vietnam .'
They said they would clean up and for me to go back to bed, Which I did. The next morning time I Left Josie in the quarters while I went to the police post. I gave them as a great deal information as I dared. I informed them about the corrupt sheriff 's Department. The Police departments of Canyon and Amarillo according to my Grandfather were pretty go up straightforward arrows.
I gave them the gens of a detective from granddaddy letter, Jacob Littlestar. No I had n't spoke to him. At the clip I had no reason too. The policeman I had spoken too net Nox Dan Jarvis detective 3 grade told me they had the other shooter. He had gone to the emergency room at the Seal Beach hospital. His wound was a through and through on his right thigh it was a backbreaking bleeder and he could n't stop it and he got scared.
"They claim they were n't after you, they were just having fun and did n't do it the guard shack was even there."
"Nobody really believes that do they. Next interrogative is this going to delay me leaving ?"
"No we have your deposition and we will meet you when the hearing is to be held. Do me a favour and let me know how your story plays out."
Next I stopped off at the Hospital to go over on Ruben. I was told that he had to undergo surgery and was still pretty a great deal out of it. But they expected him to make a wide convalescence.
I got back to Barracks and spoke with all my co workers and said my good auf wiedersehen. I gave Tommy and smithy my nomadic phone number so they could let me eff how Ruben was doing. I told them if they had all the paperwork ready I would be leaving out from there.
And that is how it worked out. Just about the clip we reached I-40 my sound social status. It was one of the sentry duty at the Graveyard, Al Sims, Al was another incapacitate Vietnam vet he had tangled with a mine and lost his humbled left leg from the knee down. He was a extremity of a veteran organization mostly devoted to Annam veterinarian mostly disabled. He had one message for me, they are available if they are needed all I have to do is shout out and he gave me a phone routine and a code epithet 'Hondo'and I would get help.
We were having a pleasant crusade, no job at all. We neared Albuquerque And I started looking for a Motel. The next going was a vacation Inn that sounded good to me.
We registered, went to our room and cleaned up before going out to eat. We walked to the restaurant and had a fine meal. When we emerged from the restaurant Josie noticed the Shamrock place 2 door down."Have you got the tag with you ?"I nodded yes. Josie started walking to the station.
I pulled out my wallet and removed the ticket, I started to hand it to the attendant but Josie stopped me."I think you should bless and date it first."The accompaniment smiled and handed me a pen. I signed and dated it and handed the pen to Josie. She smiled,"might as well."and she signed it too.
I handed the ticket to the attendant, he inserted it in the automobile. The co-occurrence said you have a winner and printed out a check slate and handed me both. I looked at just the ticket and Josie grabbed it out of my mitt. I looked up at the attendant and he had a big smile on his nerve. Josie screamed ... .
