I was just out and about running errands for THE Boss, when all of a sudden, a police officer pulled up behind me and flicked on his lights, and pulled me over. The officer exited his car and approached me, saying, "Hello, I am Lieutenant Nick of River City. Do you know why I pulled you over?"

I answered, "No, I don't know, Lieutenant Nick.''

Nick said, "You were going 70 in a 60 mph zone."

"*Oh dear*, "I said.

"Oh dear, is right." the Lieutenant said. "Now, can I have your license and registration?"

"Sure," I said, glancing around for it. As I looked around, I grabbed my registration from the glove box and handed it to him.

He asked," What about your driver's License?"

I knew that the only License I had on me at the moment was the one with my cover name and code on it that said Hunter #9646. I didn't want to get myself arrested for not having my actual license on me. So I said, "Oh, I don't know what happened to it. I might have dropped it somewhere, or it could be somewhere in this car, but I'm not completely sure." It was only a little lie that I hoped the Lieutenant didn't catch.

"Okay?" Lieutenant Nick said, "If you can't find your license, you will have to go to the DMV to get a new one. Also, I will let you off with a written warning even though you don't have your license this once."

I just nodded my head and said, "Ok."

"Let me look at your registration. It says your name is 'Revel Greenpea.' Uh? 'Nice' last name." He said, looking concerned. "I know the name Greenpea. Are you the son of Lestat Greenpea? The rich, famous guy?"

"There's more than one rich guy, you need to be more specific," I told him, knowing he was right. My father was a secret agent. I knew Lieutenant Nick asked me because my family has criminal records from past activities.

Nick said, "I know your dad from the army. We were part of the same military regiment. But then he retired and didn't tell me anything about what he was doing after he retired. I haven't seen or heard from him since then. Now that I'm here, how is your dad?"

"Uh, he died," I said, looking down.

"Oh. Uh, sorry for your loss, then. He was a good friend of mine." He said, tearing up.

"Ok? Bye then. Nice to meet you?" I said in slight confusion as the Lieutenant gave me back my registration. The Lieutenant cried and went back to his car and shut off his lights. He forgot to write me a 'written warning' for speeding.

I took off when the Lieutenant got to his car to pick up something for THE Boss. It took me a little while to get there because of all the traffic. By the time I arrived, the place was getting ready to close up for the day. So I quickly got out of my car. I went in to get THE Boss's 'special' thing and then got back to my car right as the store closed for the night. Then I drove off and met up with a couple of friends behind the club. They were part of a big but not well-known group in the city. But they do have a reputation for getting into a lot of mischief. But we are always 'undercover' to fix it.
