THE BEGINNING OF THE END

THE BEGINNING OF TOMORROW

A WORLD FULL OF STRUGGLE

A WORLD FULL OF SORROW

IN THE BEGINNING

THERE WAS BORN A BRIGHT CHILD

WITH A BEAUTIFUL SET OF TEETH

AND A BEAUTIFUL SMILE

BORN WITH LOVE AND CARRING PARENTS

HE WAS THE YOUNGEST OF TWO CHILDREN

THE FIRST FAVORING HIS FATHER

THE SECOND, FAVORING HIS MOTHER

HIS GRANDMOTHER SAID

A STAR IS BORN,

A STAR IS BORN

IF EVER A CHILD WOULD BE A STAR.

T HE CHILD’S FATHER IS A BIG TIME BUSINESS EXECUTIVE. A SELF MADE MILLIONAIR, WELL KNOWN THROUGH OUT THE U.S.

A WELL KNOWN FAMILY MAN, ALSO A REALLY WELL ESTABLISHED SELF PROCLAIMED LAND LORD OF MANY MULTIPLE PROPERTIES.

A MAN OF RENOUN, A MAN OF EXCELLENCE. HE OWNED MORE REAL ESTATE AND RENTAL PROPERTIES THAN ANYONE ELSE IN THE U.S. HE TURNED INTO A SELF PROCLAIMED MILLIONARE AT THE AGE OF FITHY FOUR. MANY RESTURAUNTES AND SHOPPING CENTERS ALL OWE TRIBUTE TO HIM. BIG NAME BUSINESSESS, BIG NAMED COUNTRY CLUBS ALL ACROSS AMERICA TOO. WHAT A TRULY AMAZING MAN HE WAS.

HE WAS ALWAYS HAPPY, ALWAYS SMILING. WHO WOULDN’T

IN HIS SHOES? HE HAD A GORGEOUS, BEAUTIFUL WIFE. YEAH, YOU KNOW THE KIND,. AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL, MISS AMERICA, YOUR TYPICAL TROPHY WIFE. SHE LOOKED SO DARN GOOD THAT I WOULD SAY THAT SHE LOOKED LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN A YOUNG BROOK SHIELDS AND A YOUNG JANE KENNEDY. SHE WAS EXTREMELY GORGEOUS, AND GLAMOUROUS. ON A SCALE OF ONE TO TEN SHE WAS AN ELEVEN. EVERY ONE WONDERED JUST HOW HE WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN HER, GIVEN THE FACT THAT HE WAS DIRT POOR WHEN HE MARRIED HER

THIS GUY’S LIFE WAS JUST ONE GOOD THING HAPENNING, ONE RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER. THINGS WERE ALWAYS GOING RIGHT FOR HIM. I MEAN NONTHING, NOT ANYTHING WENT WRONG FOR HIM. HIS LIFE WAS VERY MUCH LIKE A FAIRY TALE. SO NO MATTER HOW UNBELIEVABLE IT MAY SOUND, THIS IS JUST THE WAY IT WAS. SO LET’S GET DOWN TO BUSSINESS.

AFTER ALL, WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG I TELL YOU? ABSOLUTELY NONTHING, YEAH! THAT’S RIGHT ABSOLUTELY NON-THING. YOU ARE PROBABLY WONDERING HOW ANYBODY COULD BE SO LUCKY. ALL I KNOW IS THAT IF I WAS THAT LUCKY I REALLY WOULDN’T KNOW HOW TO ACT, WOULD YOU? HOW COULD ANYBODY BE SO LUCKY? I AM SURE YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD OF THE TERM FROM THE OLD TELEVISION SHOW, CALLED HEE HAW, IF IT WEREN’T FOR BAD LUCK, I WOULD HAVE KNOW LUCK AT ALL. WELL THIS GUY WAS JUST THE OPPOSITE.

ALRIGHT, DID I MENTION PUPPIES? YEAH, THERE WERE LOTS OF PUPPIES. THERE WERE SO MANY PUPPIES THAT THEY COULDN’T EVEN NUMBER THEM ALL. THEY MULTIPLIED LIKE BUNNIES RATHER THAN PUPS. THE MORE THEY TRIED TO GIVE AWAY THE MORE THEY MULTIPLIED. THE GOOD THING ABOUT THIS WAS THAT THEY WERE ALL PURE BREEDS, SO THERE TWENTY TWO PUPPIES SOON TURNED INTO ALMOST TWO HUNDRED PUPPIES. THIS TOO, QUICKLY TURNED INTO A FAMILY BUSSINESS.

AGAIN, HIS LIFE WAS LIKE A FAIRY TALE, LIKE NONTHING ON EARTH. SO LET’S KEEP GOING FURTHER AND FURTHER. YEAH, THIS IS JUST THE KIND OF FANTASY WE ALL DESIRE. A GREAT LIFE, A GOOD LIFE, A WONDERFUL LIFE, SOMETHING OTHERS OF US CAN ONLY DREAM ABOUT. HEY WAIT A MINUTE!, LET ME MAKE SURE THAT I AM SAYING IT RIGHT, THIS GUY HAD A LIFE THAT WENT JUST FINE, IT WENT PERFECT. HE LEAD AN EXCEPTIONALLY EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE IS JUST HIS KIND OF STORY. NO ONE IN THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MORE BLESSED. HE WAS BLESSED WHEN HE WENT IN AND BLESSED WHEN HE WENT OUT.

WE LOVE YOU! WE LOVE YOU! THE WORLD EXCLAIMED. YOU ARE SIMPLYTHE BEST. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE, ANY ONE COULD GO THROUGH THEIR ENTIRE LIFE WITH EVERYTHING GOING YOUR WAY.

YOU KNOW, IT MIGHT JUST BE ALL IN THE WAY YOU LOOK AT THINGS IN YOUR LIFE. I MEAN IF YOU LET EVERYTHING AROUND YOU THAT GOES WRONG, MAKES YOU UPSET, THEN THAT IS MOST LIKELY THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO IS ALWAYS SUFFERING FROM SOMETHING CALLED THE DOMINO EFFECT. IT IS JUST ONE BAD THING HAPPENING ONE RIGHT AFTER THE OTHER. IT IS NOT LIKELY THAT YOU WILL EVER HAVE ANYTHING GO RIGHT FOR YOU IF YOU ARE LIKE THAT. I AM TALKING ABOUT THE KIND OF PERSON WHO IS ALWAYS CONTINUALLY POINTING THE FINGER AT SOME ONE ELSE WHEN EVER SOMETHING GOES WRONG FOR YOU. IT HAS BEEN CALLED BEING STUCK IN A RUT, AND I KNOW FROM MANY PAST EXPERIENCES THAT THIS IS VERY HARD AND DIFFICULT TO GET OUT OF.

SO MAYBE WE CAN LEARN FROM THIS GUY, IF WE TRY. I MEAN ANYONE CAN FIND SOMETHING WRONG, IF THEY GO SEARCHING FOR IT. THAT’S THE EASIEST THING IN THE ENTIRE WORLD TO FIND. IT IS ALSO EASY TO SAY THIS IS WRONG AND THAT IS WRONG. BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THIS, NO ONE REALLY WANTS TO HANG AROUND ANYBODY WHO IS LIKE THAT.

OH, LET ME ASSURE YOU, I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THOSE OF US WHO FALL UPON HARD AND DIFFICULT TIMES THROUGH NO FAULT OF THEIR OWN. I DO UNDERSTAND THAT SOME TIMES WHEN IT RAINS IT POURS. SO MANY TIMES MYSELF, I HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS. I FOUND OUT, THERE IS ONLY A PROBLEM DEPENDING UPON HOW YOU LOOK AT IT. YOU CAN SUM ALL OF IT UP LIKE THIS, BY SAYING MY GLASS IS HALF EMPTY, AND SIMPLY HAVING SOME ONE ELSE SAYING MY GLASS IS HALF FULL. BOTH OF THEM ARE RIGHT, AND IT IS JUST THE WAY SOME PEOPLE SEE THINGS. I LIKE TO SAY THAT MY GLASS IS HALF FULL TO AVOID THE NEGATIVE AND TO STAY LOOKING ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF LIFE.

OKAY, GETTING BACK TO THIS LITTLE KID’S PARENTS. THEY WERE QUITE A UNIQUE PAIR. A SORT OF ODD COUPLE SO TO SPEAK. SO YOU PROBABLY ARE SAYING HOW SO? WELL LET ME EXPLAIN. FIRST OF ALL:

A. THEY WERE BOTH OF TWO DIFFERENT RACES, HE WAS CAUCASION. SHE WAS ITALIAN. OR TO BE EVEN MORE SPECIFIC. HER FATHER WAS ITALIAN AND HER MOTHER WAS HISPANIC.

B. HE WAS A LITTLE TALLER THAN THE AVERAGE MALE, WHILE SHE WAS A LITTLE SHORTER THAN THE AVERAGE FEMALE.

C. MICHEAL HAD ONLY A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA, WHILE SAHSHA HAD A BUSSINESS DEGREE IN ACCOUNTING.

D. SHE WOULD WORRY ABOUT THE LIT-

TLE THINGS, WHILE HE WOULD OFTEN NEVER WORRY ABOUT ANY-

THING.

SO THIS IS THE REASON WHY THEY SAY THAT LOVE IS BLIND. THEY BOTH NEEDED EACH OTHER. THEIR MANY LIKES AND DISLIKES, THEIR MANY DIFFERENCES IS WHAT KEEPS THEIR RELATION TOGETHER. IT IS WHAT MAKES THEIR RELATIONSHIP CLICK. IT IS LIKE ONE OF PAULA ABDUL’S OLD SONGS, OPPOSITES ATRACT, AND BE-

LIEVE ME WHEN I SAY THAT THEY REALLY DO. I SORT OF HAD A SIMILAR COURTSHIP MYSELF, A GOOD MANY NUMBER OF YEARS AGO.

WELL, MOST LIKELY, MOST OF US HAVE HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE IN RELATIONSHIPS, AT LEAST ONCE IN OUR ENTIRE LIVES.

YEAH, I AM TALKING ABOUT TRUE MARITAL BLISS. THERE IS NON-THING ELSE LIKE IT THROUGH OUT THE ENTIRE WORLD. NOW A DAYS EVERY ONE SEEMS TO BE GETTING A DIVORCE AND IT REALLY IS GOOD TO SEE THAT STILL A FEW OF US ARE CONTINUING TO STAY TRUE TO THEIR MARRIAGES AMONG SO MUCH CHAOS. YEAH, WHEN MANY COUPLES USED TO STAY TOGETHER AND FAMILIES USED TO STAY TOGETHER. YEAH, . . . THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS.

YEAH, LIFE WAS A LOT SIMPLER BACK THEN. I MEAN YOU JUST DIDN’T HAVE THE KIND OF PROBLEMS WE HAVE NOW A DAYS BACK THEN. EVERY ONE WAS LOVING LIFE AND JUST SEEMED TO BE ENJOYING THEMSELVES IN EVERY MOMENT. MAN IF WE COULD JUST GO BACK IN TIME TO THE SEVENTIES WHEN MUSIC WAS MUSIC AND A BAND WAS REALLY A BAND, LIKE EARTH WIND AND FIRE OR EVEN CHICAGO.

ALSO WE DIDN’T HAVE ALL OF THIS GUN VIOLENCE, THAT WE DO HAVE TODAY. YEAH, I CONSIDER THINGS TO BE A LOT BETTER AND SAFER BACK THEN. MANY BAD THINGS WERE NOT HAPPENING ALL ACROSS THE NATION. LIFE WASN’T SO CRAZY BACK THEN WITH THIS SO CALLED BLACK ON BLACK CRIME. WE HAVE WENT A LONG WAY FROM THE DAYS OF SLAVERY. MARTIN LUTHER KING JUNIOR WOULD BE TURNING OVER IN HIS GRAVE IF HE DISCOVERED THAT HE ONLY LEAD BLACKS TO FREEDOM ONLY TO DESTROY THEMSELVES BY SHOOTING ONE ANOTHER EVERY NIGHT. ALL THOSE WHO FOUGHT IN THE CIVIL WAR FOR THEIR FREEDOM WON THE BATTLE, YET THE WHITE RACE IS WINNING THE WAR EVERY DAY. THEY KNOW NOW THEY DON’T HAVE TO HANG US ON TREES AND THEN SET THEM ON FIRE. ALL THEY NEED DO NOW A DAYS IS TO SIMPLY OPEN UP A NEARBY GUN SHOP IN ANY BLACK NEIGHBORHOOD, THEN THEY CAN JUST SET BACK AND WATCH THE KILLINGS BEGIN. THERE WAS AT LEAST ONE OR TWO SHOOTINGS EVERY NIGHT THAT ENDED UP BEING FATALITIES IN MANY CITIES ALL OVER.

ALRIGHT, LET ME GET BACK IN REFERENCE TO THE COUPLE THAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. THERE WERE SO MANY GOOD THINGS TO SAY ABOUT THEM. I WOULD SAY IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT EVERYTHING THE YOUNG COUPLE DID JUST BLOSSOMED ALL OVER THE PLACE. THEY WERE TRULY BLESSED FROM THIS MAGNIFICENT GOD THAT THEY BELIEVED IN CALLED JEHOVAH. MICHEAL WOULD WORSHIP AND PRAISE HIM DAILY, EVEN THOUGH HE NEVER WOULD ATTEND CHURCH SERVICES REGULARLY.

THE ADULT COUPLE ALSO HAD GREAT PARENTS WHO LOVED THEM DEARLY. BOTH THEIR PARENTS HAD STRONG BELEIFS DEEPLY ROOTED IN CHRISTIANY. THIS MEANS THE TWO SONS HAD GREAT GRAND PARENTS. GREAT GRAND PARENTS WHO REMAINED IN MARRIAGES FOR A LONG LONG TIME ON BOTH THE FATHER’S SIDE AND THE MOTHER’S SIDE. BOTH PARENTS ON THE FATHER’S SIDE AND THE MOTHER’S SIDE REMAINED IN THEIR MARRIAGES FOR OVER SIXTY YEARS.

ALRIGHT, I KNOW WHAT YOU MAYBE SAYING NOW. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GEAR IT UP, AND REALLY GET TO THE GOOD STUFF. JUST REMEMBER, GOOD THINGS ARRIVE TO THOSE OF US WHO WAIT. SO PLEASE WAIT AND FRET NOT. I PROMISE YOU, GOD WILLING THAT I WILL MAKE THIS WORTH YOUR WAIT. THROUGH TIME AND EFFORT WE SHOULD BE MOVING RIGHT ALONG HERE SHORTLY. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I CAN BARELY WAIT TO GET DOWN TO THE REALLY GOOD STUFF EITHER, THAT’S RIGHT, THE EXCITEMENT OF AN ACTION PACKED ADVENTURE AND SUSPENSE. TRUST ME IN THE TIME THAT IT TAKES TO GET TO WHAT MATTERS IS BRILLIANT. IT HAS GOT TO BE ALL WORTH THE WAIT, THAT IS WHAT MAKES IT ALL SO GOOD.

SPECIAL THANKS TO ALL THE READERS OUT THERE.

MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL

THANK YOU

CHAPTER ONE

MIKE’S FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH SAHSHA

I T WAS A COLD NOVEMBER MOR-

NING. FREDRICK MICHEAL SCOTCHBACK GOT UP AROUND SIX AM JUST ABOUT LIKE HE DID EVERY MORNING FOR THE PREVIOUS LAST FIVE YEARS. LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW, THERE APPEARED TO BE AN EARLY SNOW. THEN WHITHIN A SECOND LOOK, HE REALIZED, THAT IT WAS ONLY A THICK HEAVY LAYER OF FROST. HE SUNG IN THE SHOWER THE WAY MANY OF US DO. THANKS TO HIS RELIABLE SHOWER CADDY, HE WAS ABLE TO GRAB THE MOUTHWASH, HIS TOOTHBRUSH, TOOTHPASTE AND TOOTHPOLISH. HE NOW BEGINS TO GARGLE, WHILE WASHING HIS HAIR. HIS EIGHT MINUTE SHOWER ALWAYS WORKED LIKE CHARME, WITH LOTS OF LATHER, AND LOTS OF SOAP SUDS. HIS MORNING WAS OFF TO A GOOD START. HE WAS GETTING OUT OF THE TUB AND GETTING ON WITH HIS DAY. GRABBIN A THICH PLUSH TOWEL, HE BEGAN TO QUICKLY DRY HIMSELF OFF.

BEING THE SMART GUY THAT HE IS, HE HAD EVERYTHING ALREADY LAID OUT FOR THE NEXT DAY. THE SHIRT, THE SLACKS, THE SHOES. AND THE SOCKS WERE ALL IN PLACE FOR THE NEXT DAY, YEAH, AND YOU GUESSED IT, EVEN THE LUNCH WAS ALREADY MADE. ALL HE HAD TO DO WAS OPEN THE REFRIDGERATOR, AND THERE IT WAS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF HIM. HE WAS SUCH A MAJOR SUCCESS STORY. HE REALLY HAD IT TOGETHER. THAT’S WHY IT WAS SO PLAIN TO SEE WHY HE WAS SO MANY TIMES OFTEN PROMOTED. HE GRABS HIS COAT, AND HE IS OUT THE DOOR. HE JUMPS INTO HIS CAR, INSERTS THE KEY, AND GIVES IT A LITTLE FUEL, WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON. HE THEN TURNS ON THE RADIO AND STARTS TO SING. HE STARTS HUMMING TO IT BECAUSE HE REALIZES HE NO LONGER KNOWS THE REST OF THE WORDS.

MR. MICEAL SCOTCHBACK IS NOW WELL ON HIS WAY, ABOUT HALF OF THE WAY THERE WHEN HE RUNS INTO A BIT OF TRAFFIC JAM… ANTICIPATING THE MATTER AT HAND, HE IS STILL TWENTY MINUTES AHEAD OF SHEDULE. WHAT A SMART COOKIE HE WAS, AND THUS FAR HE HAS STILL NEVER BEEN LATE, THROUGHOUT THE FIVE YEAR TIME SPAN THAT HE HAS BEEN WORKING AT THE CENTRAL CYBERDINE BUILDING. THERE WAS SO MUCH INTUITION INSIDE OF HIM THAT HE COULD OFTEN TIMES GET A SENSE OR SOME FEELING WHEN SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN IN HIS DAY. WITH THAT BEING SAID, HE SORT OF KNEW THAT WHERE AND WHEN WHAT EXIT HE SHOULD BE GETTING OFF OR WHAT RAMP HE SHOULD BE GETTING ONTO. THIS EARLY MORNING TRAFFIC CONGESTION WAS BASICALLY AN EVERYDAY THING.

YOU JUST NEEDED TO KNOW HOW TO MENUEVER AROUND IT, AND MICHEAL SO HAPPENED TO HAVE HAD THIS KIND OF CAPABILITY.

ALRIGHT HERE WE GO, THERE HE IS JUST ABOUT TO PULL INTO HIS PARKING PLACE AT WORK TODAY. HE SEES AN UNFAMILIAR AUTO MOBILE PARKED IN THE SPACE LOCATED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HIS PARKING SPACE. LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY AT THE WORK PLACE HAS GOT A NEW CAR. OF COURSE MICHEAL NOTICED THAT THERE WERE NO NEW LISCENSE PLATES ON THE CAR. THIS RAISED HIS SUSPISCION OF JUST WHO IT MIGHT BE.

SUDDENLY HE SEES A BLACK GUY RUNNING TOWARDS THE PARKING SPACE. THE GUY WAS RUNNING BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT HE WAS NOT SUSPOSE TO BE PARKING THERE. BEFORE THE GUY COULD GET BACK INTO HIS CAR, MIKE HAD GOTTEN OUT OF HIS AND BEGUN TO WALK OVER TO WHERE HE WAS. HE TOLD HIM HE WASN’T SUSPOSE TO BE PARKING THERE, BECAUSE YOUR CAR COULD EASILY GET TOWED. THEY WERE PRETTY STRICT ABOUT THAT AROUND THERE. THE BLACK GUY RESPONDED WITH SOMETHING LIKE, YOU NEED TO MIND YOUR OWN BUSSINESS, AND LEAVE ME THE HECK ALONE. THEN MICHEAL RESPONDED, "LOOK MAN! I AM JUST TRYING TO HELP YOU, TO STOP YOU FROM GETTING YOUR DARN CAR TOWED. MAN I AM JUST TRYING TO HELP YOU OUT, AND YOU NEED TO CALM DOWN.

SO THE BLACK GUY ABRUPTLY GOT BACK INTO HIS CAR AND SLAMMED THE FREAKING CAR DOOR EXTREMELY HARD. HE WAS CURSING AND MUMBLING PROFANITY ALL THE WHILE HE WAS PUTTING THE CAR IN REVERSE. HE EVEN BEGAN TO ROLL DOWN THE DRIVER’S SIDE WINDOW, WHILE HE CONTINUED TO SCREAM AT MICHEAL. MICHEAL GAVE HIM THE FINGER, AND BRUSHED HIM OFF JOKINGLY. THE GUY IMMEDIATELY WENT FORWARD AND PULLED BACK COMPLETELY IN TO THE PARKING PLACE WHERE HE WASN’T SUSPOSE TO BE. MICHEAL WAS WALKING AWAY FROM HIM, AND THAT’S WHEN THE BLACK GUY GOT OUT OF HIS VEHICLE AND BEGAN TO APROACH HIM. SURPRISINGLY ENOUGH, MICHEAL TURNED AROUND PUTTING HIS HANDS ON HIS WAIST. THIS BLACK GUY WALKED RIGHT UP TO WHERE HE WAS FACE TO FACE WITH HIM. HE WAS STARRING MIKE UP AND DOWN LIKE HE JUST WANTED HIM TO DO SOMETHING. IT WAS ONE TALL GUY AGAINST THE OTHER. I TELL YOU IF THIS SETTING WAS BACK IN THE OLD WEST, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A DRAW.

[HEY BUD, WHY DON’T YOU JUST GO ON AND GET RIGHT BACK INSIDE YOUR CAR.] SAID MICHEAL. [YO MAN, I AM A FULL GROWN MAN, AND YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO! I WILL BUST A CAP IN YOUR WHITE BEHIND. THAT’S WHATS WRONG WITH ALL YOU WHITE MOTHER FRECKERS, YOU THINK YOU CAN TELL EVERYBODY WHAT TO DO… . THAT’S WHY I CAN’T STAND YA, YOU THINK YOU CAN BOSS EVERYBODY AROUND.] SAID THE RAGING BLACK GUY

SO IT HAD APEARED THAT MIKE BEGAN TO BACK DOWN. LITTLE DID THIS BLACK GUY KNOW THAT MICHEAL WAS QUITE A BLACK BELT ACHEIVER IN KARATE. HE WAS SO GOOD THAT HE WAS ABOUT TO OPEN HIS FIRST STUDIO OF MARTIAL ARTS. [ALRIGHT, CALM DOWN . . . . OK… . JUST CALM DOWN.] SAID MICHEAL. [LET’S BOTH TRY TO BE ADULTS ABOUT THIS.] THE BLACK GUY FINALLY DECIDED TO GET BACK INTO HIS FREAKIN CAR. [WOOO, . . . . WHAT A SIGH OF RELIEF.] WENT MICHEAL. [MAN, . . . . GOOD BYE AND GOOD RIDDANCE… I REALLY DIDN’T WANT TO HAVE TO KILL ANYBODY TODAY.]

NOW JUST WHEN THIS GUY THOUGHT HE HAD WON HIS BATTLE WITH MIKE, HE QUICKLY PUT HIS CAR IN REVERSE AND SURE ENOUGH, GLORY AND BEHOLD, HE BACKED RIGHT UP DIRECTLY IN TO ANOTHER CAR. IT WAS SO FUNNY BECAUSE THE CAR THAT HE BACKED UP INTO WAS THE CAR THAT BELONGED THERE. HE BACKED RIGHT IN TO THE DRIVER’S SIDE DOOR OF HIS CAR.

[HOLY SHET!] EXCLAIMED THE GUY WHO BELONGED THERE. [JESUS CHRIST! . . . THIS JUST ISN’T MY DAY… . AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, . . . . I AM ALREADY LATE.]

SO NOW THE GUY WHO RIGHTFULLY BELONGS THERE GETS OUT OF HIS CAR ON THE PASSENGER’S SIDE, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS CRUSHED SO SEVERELY. HE WENT OVER TO THE OTHER DRIVERS CAR TO EXCHANGE INFORMATION, UTILL THE POLICE OFFICERS GET THERE. MAN, OH MAN, WAS THAT BLACK GUY IN BIG TROUBLE, BECAUSE NOT ONLY WAS HE DRIVING ON A SUSPENDED LISCENSE, HE WAS ALSO DRIVING WITHOUT ANY INSURANCE.

AFTER EXCHANGING IMFORMATION, MICHEAL’S FRIEND, JERRY PRINNER GETS BACK INSIDE HIS CAR UNTIL THE POLICE OFFICERS GET THERE. THEY MAKE THEIR WAY OVER TO WHERE MIKE IS STANDING. THAT WAS THE LAST PERSON THIS BLACK GUY WANTED TO SEE THE POLICE OFFICERS TALKING TO. HE REGRETS GETTING IN TO AN ARGUMENT EARLIER WITH MIKE. WHEN HE SAW THE OFFICERS WALKING TOWARDS HIS CAR, HE COULD TELL JUST BY LOOKING AT THEM THAT THEY WERE VERY PREDJUDICE. THEY WERE REDNECKS TO THE EXTREME EVEN.

[GET OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP !] THEY YELLED.THEY COMBED THOUGH HIS CAR, RAN HIS PLATES TO SEE IF THE CAR HE WAS DRIVING WAS STOLEN. THEY SEARCHED TO GET WHATEVER THEY COULD ON THIS BLACK GUY. SURE ENOUGH THEY STUMBLED ACROSS SOME VERY SMALL BAG OF MARIJUANA. EVENTHOUGH IT WAS ONLY A SMALL BAG HE KNEW THAT THEY WERE GOING TO SAY THAT IT WAS ENOUGH WEED THERE WITH THE INTENT TO SELL, . . . . AND SURE ENOUGH THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID.

MICHEAL WAS THE ONLY SPECTATOR WHO SAW WHAT HAPPENED, AND HE WAS MORE THAN WILLING TO TELL HIS SIDE OF THE STORY. HE TOLD THE GUY THAT HE COULDN’T PARK THERE AND [HE WENT BALLISTIC ON ME, . . . . YEAH!, THAT’S WHAT YOU GET FOR NOT LISTENING TO ME, YOU MOTHER FRECKER!] THE OFFICERS FORCED THE BLACK GUY FACE DOWN TO THE GROUND. THEY PUT HIS HANDS BEHIND HIS BACK, . . . . PLACED THE CUFFS ON HIM AND THREW HIS BEHIND IN THE BACK OF A POLICE CAR. THE CAR HE WAS DRIVING WAS BEING TOWED AT THE OWNER’S EXSPENSE.

AGAIN, MICHEAL’S FRIEND, JERRY PRINNER DECIDED TO REMAIN INSIDE HIS CAR UNTIL THE EMERGENCY SERVICES WOULD ARRIVE THERE, AND HE WOULD HAVE THEM PULL HIM OUT ON THE DRIVER’S SIDE AND PLACE HIM ONTO A STRECTCHER. THIS WOULD BE THE PERFECT EXCUSE FOR HIM TO GIVE HIS BOSS, AND JUDGING BY THE LOOK OF HIS CAR, IT WAS VERY EASY TO BELIEVE THAT HE WAS BADLY HURT.

HE STAYED INSIDE HIS CAR BECAUSE AFTER ALL HE WAS UNABLE TO GET OUT ON THE DRIVER’S SIDE. YES HE REALLY WAS SORT OF PINNED IN SO TO SPEAK. I CAN’T FAULT HIM FOR NOT GETTING OUT, AND LOOKING AT HOW BAD THE DRIVER’S SIDE DOOR WAS BANGED UP, IT WAS EASY TO BELIEVE THAT JERRY CERTAINLY MAY HAVE BROKEN A BONE OR TWO. HEY, WHY NOT? SINCE HE WAS ALREADY LATE.

PULLING OUT HIS LISCENSE AND REGISTRATION JERRY TRIED TO ROLL DOWN HIS WINDOW, AND HE COULDN’T BECAUSE THE DOOR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED. WHILE HE SLIDES OVER TO THE PASSENGER SIDE THE ARRIVING OFFICERS ARE NOW ON THE SEEN, QUESTIONING HIM TO SEE IF HE WAS ALRIGHT.

MEANWHILE, THE BLACK GUY HAD NO IDEA THAT SOMEONE INSIDE HAD TIPPED THE POLICE THAT A BLACK GUY WAS STANDING OUTSIDE CAUSING A MAJOR DISTURBANCE. HE WAS REALLY TREATED WORSE THAN A RUNNAWAY SLAVE. HE COULDN’T BELIEVE HOW BAD AT FIRST, WHEN HE WAS BEING APPROACHED BY THE ARRESTING OFFICERS. THERE HAD BEEN FOR THE RECORD ON THESE PREMISES, JUST A FEW MONTHS EARLIER PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, WHERE IT WAS STATED BY A FEW OF THE OTHER EMPLOYEES, THAT A BLACK MALE WAS SEEN WANDERING ACROSS THE CENTRAL CYBERDINE PARKING LOT. ONE IN PARTICULAR SAYING, HE SAW HIM TRYING TO BREAK INTO SOMEONE’S AUTOMOBILE.

SO THIS IS WHAT MADE THINGS SO VERY DIFFICULT FOR THIS GUY WHO WAS OF ETHNIC DESCENT ON THIS SEEMINGLY UNFORTUNATE DAY FOR HIM. HE CON-

SIDERED ALL THESE COPS WHO WERE OF THE CAUCASION BREED, TO ALL BE RACIST. WHAT OTHER POSSIBLE REASON COULD THERE BE?" HE THOUGHT. ALL THIS TOOK PLACE RIGHT IN FRONT OF MICHEAL SCOTCHBACK, WHO SAW THE WHOLE THING UNFOLD.

MIKE IS NOW SMILELING AND GRINNING FROM CHEEK TO CHEEK. THIS IS JUST WHAT HE NEEDED TO SEE, ESPECIALLY AFTER THE WAY THIS BLACK GUY HAD CURSED HIM OUT. THE POLICE
