//let the fun begin

I sighed as I turned in the papers to Reade before walking out before anyone could stop me. 'I've already made up my mind ; I'm moving to California and going straight into the Fire Academy ' I thought as Tasha and Jane tried to get my attention before closing the elevator doors.

"Dad. You can't change my mind I have the ticket and a new thing waiting so please just help me load the last two bags" I sighed turning to my father and crossed my arms over my chest. It was two hours before my flight was to leave and I quickly grabbed my seat before my dad could grab me and I pulled out my laptop for the flight.

I easily fall asleep and some time of me passing out and waking up the plane was nearly to its destination ; Los Angels , California.

"Ladies and Gentlemen the plane will be landing in approximately 30 minutes. I repeat the plane will be landing in 30 minutes" the polit said over the intercom , as I moved my laptop back in it's case and pulled out my phone out.

10:40 AM is the time I needed to be at the training center , which means I has two hours to get settled and get ready for a new start. With my phone in hand and my finger over my dads number for a second, before turning off my phone once more and leaning my head back.

"Hello miss we have landed and you may exit the plane" a flight attendant said as I quickly nodded and got up to go get my bags and send my dad a quick message : Here no need to worry. Time for the start I need l. Love Will."
She sighed before getting a cab to the apartment she had rented before checking my phone and smiled to myself.

The apartment was nice , at least it would do for now ; or till she is out of training. I threw my bags into the tiny home and rush back to the cab and gave the directions to the training office.

"You all are here because you want to where this patch and be a Los Angels Firefighter Paramedic. You will be tested like your life depended on it , so you can make it through this training "a man said holding up a patch as show it to all of us.

I'd be lying if I say I wasn't nervous, but I'm one of 4 females in the room and I may have been FBI , but this was a whole new ball park for me.

"You Patterson , where are you from " he pointed to me as I looked around and I stood up straight and sighed.

"New York sir" I said as he smiled and said to them "let the fun begin."

Each day was harder , and hotter , then the last ; on the first day it was just rules , then we had to learn to get dressed quickly , and slide down the pole , but I pushed myself and I'm pulling through all of it. No matter what is going to thrown to me I will pull through.

"Hey Brad , just coming in for the night" I said waving to the door man as I pass bye and show my id.

"Great Patterson. How was training today" the mad said tipping his hat as I say "getting closer but I'm not giving in , I promise " before I go to my room for the evening.
