Chapter 1

McLaughlin City National Park has its normal buzz like it does most late nights. The foot traffic consists of the usual visitors to the city, patrol officers, late night joggers and late night muggers. Tonight is no different. Unfortunately, there’s never enough patrol officers to counter the muggers. McLaughlin City Police Chief Darren King has been quoted unfavorably as saying, We don’t need more officers in the park after dark. We need fewer citizens in the park after dark.

On a typical night anywhere between two to six muggings occur and the majority of them go unreported, mainly due to the well-known fact that the police could care less about the happenings of this park at night. Hapless victims are treated like dimwits by the reporting officers.

The other man replied by simply getting up to give pursuit of their next victim. As the men approach, the woman picks up her pace. The two men love this reaction, to them it means that she’s scared. Most people become overwhelmed with fear and can’t react well; some even freeze up, which makes their job that much easier.

The lady looks back a couple of times, then picks up her pace to a slight jog. The men copy. Finally the lady turns off the path and runs into some bushes. The men several feet behind give full pursuit into the bush.

"Stupid bitch. Does she think this is gonna slow us down? We would have dragged her dumb
