《Darick Ryan: The story of a Empire Cop》Chapter Fifteen: On a ship
Advertisement
It was a peaceful night and in a king-sized bed, both Darick and Mackenzie Smith were sound asleep. There was a bang on the apartment door.
Agent Mackenzie Smith got out of bed and opened the door and saw it was Captain Asyling who's in her police uniform.
"Don't you ever take that uniform off?" asked a very tired Mackenzie Ryan
Capt. Asyling replied, "Yes but your mom wanted to bring you these. Hope I didn't interrupt you and Darick in a private matter,"
"We were sleeping but thanks," said Mackenzie Smith
Capt. Asyling came in and placed the vanilla folders and a couple of three-ring binders that Mackenzie Smith's mother wanted to give her but she's busy.
Capt. Asyling left and Mackenzie Smith got dressed and left where she went and got a cup of coffee from a doughnut shop that's opened 24/7 and re-entered the apartment.
Mackenzie Smith just read the files that Capt. Asyling bought over and to her stomach, it was sticking where it's about human trafficking and she literally ran to the bathroom to throw up, especially the part where it said that the traffickers' traffic people as young as four years old and forced them in only God knows what and where.
The only thing they know is that they're coming in by ship because they can't come via airport because airport security will snoot them out quicker than a person's heart can beat.
***
In the morning.
Darick went to work with Agent Mackenzie Smith and his cousin Asyling allowed it.
***
In The Harbor District.
Both Darick and Agent Mackenzie Smith got out of the 1960s Americana unmarked car.
There was a cargo ship that was leaving so they decided to get on board but they decided to go back to the EOD Building and with her mother's permission they were going to use a helicopter.

Agent Mackenzie Smith got into the cockpit where she placed on some headsets and strapped herself in and started it up. Darick sat behind her.
"I like to keep this for close encounters," said Darick over the headset
Agent Mackenzie turned around and saw Darick holding a Baker 311 Trench Gun (M1897 Trench Gun) in his lap.
"Have you ever flown a helicopter before?" asked Darick after they took off.
Agent Mackenzie replied reassuringly, "Yeah a while ago. Of course, I only did just bring it off the ground and land it."
"Great just great!" Darick said unamusingly
Agent Mackenzie replied, "Just relax. I got this. I got beginner-ish level of flight."
"That's what I'm afraid of!" said Darick, "I'm afraid that you'll crash or blow us up!"
Agent Mackenzie replied, "Just sit back and relax. Trust the woman you're dating and maybe one day mother you a child!"
"Just keep it steady and don't do anything fancy!" said Darick, "Definitely don't get us shot down!"
As they approached the ship. Darick saw a 7.62mm GPMG (M60) and they got shot at and Darick returned fire.
A rocket or something was launched at them and Darick tried to shoot it down only for it to hit the tail rotor and it caused them to crash into the pacific ocean. The two swam to the surface of the ocean but decided to get onboard.
Agent Mackenzie had a knife and she used it to take out a criminal. She passed it to Darick who unloaded the handgun and placed the magazine back in.
"I wonder what's in these crates," Darick said, "On the other hand I do not!"
Agent Mackenzie replied, "They traffic whatever your mind can think of. Drugs, guns, art, chop shops...people,"

Darick shook his head in disbelief at what people would smuggle and to him, he would rather deal with unlicensed and illegal guns on the streets than hear that people traffic other people.
Darick just got in front of Agent Mackenzie and he started just to shoot every criminal there was. Agent Mackenzie just face palmed herself where she wanted to try and stealth it and Darick is now going all guns blazing on every single criminal there was.
I guess Darick found his berserk button! Agent Mackenzie Smith thought, I don't blame him. My berserk button is men who believe that women should be home cooking, cleaning, having babies, listing to their boyfriends/husbands, and all that. Well, we're all different.
Darick went on a rampage and just shot everyone who had a gun and wasn't Agent Mackenzie or him. Mackenzie Smith didn't worry about Darick due to he has an M92 pistol.
A criminal tackled Darick and tried to stab him with a knife. Agent Mackenzie performed some martial arts and saved Darick while beating up the criminal and arrested him.
"Thanks," said Darick
Agent Mackenzie replied, "No problem!"
The two continued but Agent Mackenzie picked up a submachine gun and started to blast away and the criminals just had handguns or knives of some sorts.
"I wish I had my shotgun!" said Darick
The two entered the ship and like normal they just blasted at every criminal there was.
They didn't know what to do but to help the people that's already been captured and to be smuggled in other countries or whatnot.
Agent Mackenzie has no idea how to drive a cargo ship but she did it.
There was a radio and she used it to call her mom to come to the harbor. After getting the location to dock she told her mom where she can come and after a few minutes, there were Harbor police, regular police, and Federal Agents.
They had a few captured but they were able to save a lot of people who were about to be sold or be forced into prostitution in foreign countries.
Deputy Director Lousie entered the ship's bridge but she walked in on Darick and Agent Mackenzie share a small romantic kiss. She gave an affectionate "Aw".
They tried to deny what she saw but didn't continue due to they were caught red-handed kissing.
***
At the EOD Building at 1:30 in the afternoon.
At Mackenzie's desk.
Mackenzie came back and sat down where she ate some Chinese food with Darick and she's happy that Capt. Asyling loaned Darick out to her for the day.
The phone on her desk rang.
"Hello this is Agent Smith, Mackenzie can I help you," said Agent Mackenzie
Someone on the phone told her to write down an address and give it to Darick which she did. Darick left with a box of Chinese food and a few egg rolls and a Chinese sponge cake.
***
Sometime later
Darick arrived at a underground parking garage and he just kept his head moving and watching out for surprises but the person who called Agent Mackenzie to have Darick meet them wasn't there.
He found a note that says
Darick.
Meet me at the Central Subway Station at Three PM. Don't be late and be there right on time.
From XXX
Alright I'm off to the train station, Darick thought, Wonder who the hell this is!
Darick also called Agent Mackenzie via a payphone and told her to meet him at the train station.

Tabula Rasa : An Unbound Adventure
It starts as many things do: a clean slate, an empty page. What once was set in stone and wholly writ is gone, and all that's left is the vague notion of absence, a fullness lacking.The feeling of being tetherless, pathless, without direction or responsibility is something many would find terrifying. Others might find it freeing - an opportunity to strike out on new adventures and explore the unknown.Either way, first they have to figure out where they are and how they leave. ====== My first novel on this platform! An avid GameLit/LitRPG fan, I decided to start writing this when I seemed to exhaust all of my options for well reviewed content on the site! Inspiration for the world/general feeling is a mix of Azarinth Healer, Abyssal Road Trip, Winterborn, and the Power of Ten series, with a strong reliance on 3.5 and PF1 frameworks as a scaffold for the world. I see Arc 1 as a Robinson Crusoe style coming to terms scenario, lots of exploration of the System, the MC's options, the island and encounters with the denizens and visitors of the Timeless Isle, with a non-zero amount of introspection around their long term goals. I'll publish as frequently as I'm able but don't have a regular cadence planned at the moment.
