It was my first day... The excitement was overwhelming: I was a police officer. I walked into the station in the standard navy uniform and cap... I stopped by the front desk, "Hi... I'm new here, could you direct me to the chief's office?" The lady looked up and smiled, "First day?" I nodded, "Name's Gerda. His office is down the hall, three doors down; on the right." I thank her and walk towards the office. 'Wait, did she say right or left?' I stood there and thought for a moment before finally taking a chance. I opened the right... Oh, I was right! A short, gray headed man looked at me, "Ah, you must be Anna Reed..." I nodded, "Yes, sir." He smiled and gestured for me to sit in a chair, "As you know, you'll only be armed with a taser: you'll get your gun soon; just don't get yourself killed and we'll get along fine." I nodded again, "I'll try my best, sir." He chuckled, "Call me Mr. Weselton... Or chief, either one is fine." I smiled, "Okay, Chief." He looked at the clock, "Well, you're about to go out on your first run. Meet you in the meeting room."

I walk in and see uniforms everywhere, then I see a blond man, his tag said 'Bjorgman'... But as I went to speak with him, they all started sitting... And being the newbie, I got the empty table, 'Of course' I thought. Mr, Weselton walked in, "Okay, people... We have a newbie," He looked at me, "Miss Anna Reed, would you stand?" I looked around and saw the whole room staring at me, so I stood. The blond guy, Bjorgman, winked at me.... There's just one thing... I'm lesbian. The older man tells us about today's runs and who is out there. He was about to finish when a blond woman walked in, "Sorry, Chief." She said as she sat next to me... Wow. Okay. I don't know who she is but, wow, she's gorgeous. The chief finally finished, "Okay... Let's go get them. Miss Reed, Miss Jackson, I need to speak with you." We walked up to him, "Elsa, that's the second time this week that you've been late... Fix it." She nodded, "Yes, Chief." He pointed at me, "Elsa, meet your new partner, Anna Reed." Wait... Did he say 'Partner'? I think, yes! She looked at me and smiled, "Nice to meet you... Let's go." She started walking out of the station; and I follow. 'Wow this is gonna be hard.'

We got into the car, "So, Anna, this you're first day?" I nod, "Cool... Just, don't get hurt: the streets are dangerous." She started the engine and we begin our run. We were out no longer than an hour, and the scanner called us: it was a shootout: she reached for her radio, "Can- Can anyone else get that?! I have the newbie!" Within seconds, someone replied, "This is Kristoff; Elsa, you're the closest one." She groaned, "Fine." She turned the lights and sirens on: the speedometer increased tremendously. She looked at me, "Whatever you do, stay out of sight: and don't get killed." I was pumped: I get to see some real action.... After only being at work for an hour. After three minutes, we pulled up: two gangs: and Elsa tensed up, "Anna, call backup..." She parked the cruiser and instructed me to get get low... One gang ran while the other one was separated: half of it ran and about five stayed to fight. I heard shot fired and casings hit the ground as I called for backup... She yelled, "Anna! Give me another magazine!" I tossed one to her: as she reloaded, something happened.
