She laid down on the bed for a moment.

It felt very good to lay down and think.

        The case raced through her brain as she laid there.

She had been on alot of chases, but none of them were like this one, she never chased one of her own.

She began to go through the file she had on Palin, it was about a mile long.

He had alligations of Murder, Rape, and Conduct unbecoming of a Marshal lauched towards him.

It was a wonder how he was able to get any asignments bringing people into penal colonies without getting picked up himself.

        It dawned on her that he had a lawyer behind him, but the only way that could be true is if the lawyer was in the Private sector.

No lawyer that Shalon Hope had would take any cases having to do with him, and those lawyers came at a very high price.

They had very large rackets, with tons of cases.

        She began to strip to take a shower.

She walked into the bathroom and turned on the water and stepped in.

The water felt so good on her aching bone's.

She stepped out of the shower, threw on a towel and went to fix herself some tea.

        Tran rang her doorbell at 32:14pm.

Woo let her in and offered her some tea.

Tran took the cup of tea and sat down on the couch.

"How may I help you?", Woo asked taking a sip of tea.

"Why didn't you go with the two that left here?", asked Tran.

        Woo glared at her for moment.

"I am thinking on letting him have time to relax," she replied.

"You think like my fianc'ee," Tran laughed.

"Who would that be?", Woo inquired.

"Pollard," Tran replied.

"How long have you all been engaged?", she asked.

"We got engaged last month," Tran answered.

"Congratulations," she said.

"Thank you," Tran responded.

        Tran left and headed back to the office.

Chang walked up to her when she entered.

"We have something on Ned Ballister," she told her.

"What do you have?", Tran asked motioning for Pollard to come in.

"Ned is not a lawyer, he is a Rogue Guardian," Chang began as Pollard walked in.

        Pollard looked at Chang.

"He isn't looking to bring in Palin, he is looking to kill him,"  Pollard said.

"Are you sure?", Chang asked.

"The only time the Alacardians hire Rogues is to kill," Pollard returned.

        Hong looked up at Pollard.

"Donglian Woo is here to bring him in," she told them.

"I find it strange that she didn't go with the people that just left here," Tran said.

"She is waiting on Ned to make his move, before she leaves," Pollard fired back.
