They were young and didn't have a lot of formal training, but they were street-smart. They knew when to hide and when to run. They took their skateboards - in skateboard bags. With the boards, they could likely outrun anyone on foot.<br/><br/>The detective, Karen McConnel, glared at Frank.<strong>"Frank Parker. I should have known. I didn't recognize Melissa with her maiden name, but this has Frank Parker in the Marauders written all over it. From the safe room to the shotgun blast."</strong><br/><br/>Karen explained the situation; a group had cut the power and phone to Melissa's house and smashed in the door. Fortunately, Frank had given Melissa an alarm that went off when power was cut. Additionally, Frank reinforced the door. When the group got into the house, Melissa and the kids were upstairs in the panic room. This was where things got a bit 'Woo-Woo' or Supernatural. Somehow the group could rip a steel-reinforced door out of its frame. Melissa had opened up with a stubby shotgun and shredded two men. Frank knew the shotgun was likely loaded with iron, silver, and steel buckshot.<br/><br/>Then Karen got an evil glint in her eye,<strong>"So Frank, you're ex-wife just shredded a couple of gang-bangers coming after her. She'll probably get off eventually - due to Home Invasion and protecting her kids. However, this wasn't some random invasion; she was targeted. However, I've got a lot of discretion. We could charge her. She'd be in the general population at the Jail."</strong>Karen smiled,<strong>"where people could take a second shot at her. Her kids would go to Social Services, where anyone with a little pull could find them."</strong><br/><br/>Karen held up a finger,<strong> "On the other hand, I could argue that she's a material witness in an ongoing investigation. She and the kids would be parked in a safe house with a police guard."</strong>Karen frowned at Frank,<strong>"So what's it going to be? Will you write off your wife and kids, or will you be my CI, my bitch?"</strong><br/><br/><br/><br/>
