The guard is flustered, but in the end, opens the door, calls for backup, and we take the elevator to the fourth floor. We pound on the door. Nothing. The man finds the key and opens the apartment. I see my daughter on the ground.”
The doorman has already dialed 911, “Yes, we have a health emergency at 4322 Main Street, Queens, room 403. I will let them in. It also looks like a break-in happened. We need both the paramedics and police, quick. Yes, I will stay on the phone.”
Meanwhile, the second bodyguard is looking at my daughter.
He says, “No blood or needle marks in the standard locations. It could be pills or alcohol. Where’s the boyfriend? This didn’t happen today. Those stains are dried.”
The other one says, holding up a cell phone and wallet, “Boyfriends. That’s odd.”
Quickly, he checks the rest of the house. No body. What the hell happened here. As the police come in, he puts the phone and wallet in his pocket.
They don’t see anything wrong with Vickie, so they cart her out, and I ride along to the hospital with my baby. I don’t have to even ask; I know their company is now looking for William, or is it, Bill. Hell, she has had so many boyfriends, I don’t even bother trying to remember.
Now that I think of it, she’s had this one for a full six months. That’s a record for her. I can understand that. My oh my, that boy was a hell of a man. I have never met someone that could intimidate me and then use his smile to charm me in a matter of a minute. He was one hell of a man. What scares him? They need more men. I know he was military. If something frightened him so much that he left his wallet, mmmm. I hate to meet that group.

FBI Agent Mark Johnson’s Point of View:
I am so frustrated, “What do you mean I can’t get his records? I’m the fucking FBI!”
The lady in records fears me, “Look, look, mister. I have access to a computer. I look up records for the FBI, and I tell you what I see. Neither you nor I have Top Secret R3 level access.”
I scoff at her, “R3, you’re just making that up.”
Now I’ve pissed her off, “LOOK HERE, BOY! I can read a fucking screen; it says Top Secret R3 level access required. Top Secret is too broad, so recently, they added different classifications and levels. “R” is field operations. That means your boy did some top-level shit that nobody should know about. The “3” means that you pretty much need to be the president or in the Pentagon to know that shit. You ain’t either, boy. Either you need a friend much higher, or you need to look for someone more ordinary.”
I smile, “I believe that you just answered my question.”
She gets in the last word, “Next time start with the right question then, dipshit,” and she hung up on me.
Fucking rich people. Someone has sent death threats to the owner of the company that controls a bunch of spy satellites. I am now her bodyguard. The phone I took is ringing. It’s locked, so I can’t answer the phone. However, it says that Spencer Wilson is calling and that caller ID shows the phone number, nice. Tonight, I think the boys and I are going out.

Spencer Wilson’s point of view:
I have just finished dinner, and I say to my wife in a whisper, “I had a crappy day. Lots of work and walking. I’m chasing a man bigger than Bigfoot, and nobody has seen him in a few days now. It’s like he just disappeared off the face of the earth. How about we go upstairs and play hide the sausage.”
