    Location: Somewhere In The Air, The World Time: Only Carmen Knows… -- The flight had left in the wee hours of the morning, it had no in flight entertainment because the TVs were broken and the food was so lousy that Zack Monaghan didn’t bother touching the tuna paste sandwich. So it was no...

    With the threat level seemingly down Zack did a quick check of where everyone was. Ivy and Sophie looked like they had things handled with the downed man while Jason and Nace had the two suspects at gunpoint. By now some news vans were rearing up from the horizon. Checking his pockets, Monaghan...

    "Rats!" Zack yelled as the squeaky little beasts came rushing into the streets. He couldn't help but find a little humour in the situation, even if bullets were being fired. "Glad to know you're okay, @Julie Justice. Looks like things are getting heated." he said over the radio to the...

    Zack was glad things were moving now. It seemed like they were on the right track, and hopefully they wouldn't run into any lost in translation moments. The Junior Detectives and Instructors punched in El Paso into their individual GPS devices and started the drive. According to Zack's...

    "Are you alright, Julie?" Zack asked, he noticed that the detective seemed a bit disoriented. Though she was older than everyone here, Julie was still new when it came to ACME. Despite all that, she never used her age as an excuse. He saw her run as fast and match wits with everyone with the...

    "Me gustaría pedir un perro caliente con guacamole por favor." Zack asked for one of the Sonora style hotdogs with a large helping of guacamole, "Hey! They have Hibiscus Jarriots too!" Jarriots was a brand of mexican soda that the young detective had developed a taste for, having grown up next...

    Zack got a small nap along the road. He had his iPod on, listening to the latest top 20s list, while dreaming of being chased by a Yeti in Tibet. The Yeti was just about to grab him when the SUV hit a small pot hole, jarring him awake. "Ahh, don't kill me!" Zack yelled, as his eyes flew open...

    "Aye, aye!" Zack replied, heading out with Julie. He wanted to hurry and make sure everything was clear so he could watch the controlled detonation of the bomb... maybe even film it for his youtube channel. "Hey Julie, can you help me load some of these evidence boxes into the helicopters...

    Zack nodded. He bagged and recorded the bullets according to how they were taught at the Detective Academy. He made sure to pay extra attention to the ones embedded in the wall and record them precisely. Zack also noticed how well @Julie Justice was doing, she was making great observations. He...

    Zack watched as everyone started to find their place. He liked that @Ivy took control of the Junior Detectives. It made them seem more organized in front of the instructors. With Julie taking charge of the photographs, he decided to make himself useful at the far corner where @Jason West seemed...

    Zack had to think about this for a while but as they landed, he decided to give his answer to @Joe Kerr "Thieves probably don't just steal for money... I think even the lowliest of them are stealing because they see something that they can take. My answer is 'opportunity'. If we give people...

    Zack didn't have as much experience as the other Junior Detectives, like Ivy or Lee so this was a big chance to prove his worth on the field. The instructors were good chaperons, and it wasn't long before all the detectives split into helicopters to get to the site 21 miles away. While @Chase...

    "You bet. Though Attack of the Clones wasn't really my thing... too much mushy love." Zack smiled, glad to hear there was someone he could shoot the wind with... while at shooting class, coincidentally. "Revenge of the Sith really brought me back to it all. What was your favorite Mr. B?" It...

    Zack didn't have any other questions so he stayed quiet. There were a few agents and a limited amount of guns so there would likely be a line to start shooting. Waiting to do anything just made him more anxious, so the younger Monaghan began to observe his surroundings. Looking about, he...

    Zack understood Ivy's disdain for guns most of all. They shared a childhood, and a single stray bullet robbed them of it. He was too young to remember or digest the full gravity of the situation, but Ivy had been something of a shield from reality, and he grew up more 'normal' because of it. If...

    Zack saw the whole thing happen like a summer block buster action movie. After the dust settled it looked like Lee had used himself to shield Ivy from a would-be explosion. "That was awesome!" Zack yelled, "Lee's a hero!" The younger Monaghan checked his map, they were a lot closer to the...

    Zack nodded at what Julie had to say. "You're probably right. The buildings could get us in a bind. @Kid Kidman is the fastest and quietest out of all of us and she triggered a trap in the school house. We might as well travel where we have visability." He turned and got a sense that the other...

    Zack was glad to see both Julie Justice and Ivy thinking quick. He gave the word, Kidman moved her foot and Ivy dropped the object just in time to prevent the alarm from going off. "We got lucky there." Zack accepted his map gladly. If the first few moments of this exercise was any...

    "Oh man, that's awesome!" Zack thought aloud. He was excited to not only be working on a case but to actually have all of the top instructors in the field with them. There was a lot you could learn from observation. He smirked then quietly jeered a bit at his sister, "And you'll get to spend...

    Zack chuckled a bit as he remembered the poor ACME vending machine Ivy put a dent in. Out of all her skills in combat Zack thought her kick was most lethal. A few criminal baddies might even prefer being at the end of one of these explosives than his sister's heel. "I'm ready to go, Mr. Bilby"...

    Hey @Tenchi Masaki btw I did save my password after my last bout of computer trouble. This time however I saved the wrong password so. As for Jon Eckart, I DO use Chrome browser the problem is when we I get on another computer the passwords aren't stored. That's my current problem. So I'm either gonna make a new account or figure something out 'cause I'm not bothering boss man :D :D
