[QUOTE="Leif, post: 6358398, member: 48762"] [b]Z.H. the 'New-Hire'[/b] That is, Zane Harper, who has been newly hired by Ignatius Ironshirt to stand in the size 27 clown shoes of one of his best, most-seasoned constables, SoulFetter, who has been called home to his tribe in the mountainous forests for some kind of "voodoo hoodoo," or so claims Iggy. [That's a bit of attempted humor, trying to smile as our dear friend Mowgli leaves the game, but we all know that SoulFetter doesn't wear clown shoes -- heck, he usually doesn't bother to wear shoes at all.] Iggy has issued Zane a Bronze Badge and a truncheon of his very own, and sent him in pursuit of the rest of the Alpha Squad, about an hour behind them. Zane has tried to make up the time difference, and has narrowed it a little. Zane has been given a speech by Iggy that is part message to the rest of the Alpha Squad, and part pep-talk for Zane's benefit: [color=lightblue]"Tell the rest of them that CoalSweater or whatever his name is has been called back home. Seems his tribe needs a new food taster and official bedwetter for their glorious chief, or some such gobbledygook. Anyway, he's gone and you're here, so make the best of it and do the Fourteenth Proud!"[/color] [/QUOTE]
