"I'm reporting for duty, sir. Captain Lewis said that..."
"I don't know what Captain Lewis told you, but we have a full roster here at the 41st." Captain Sharp told her.
"I don't understand." Shauna said, incredulously. The captain took a drag on his cigarette and eyed Shauna closely.
"What were you expecting to do here, Miss Elliot?" he asked.
"I don't know. I was hoping to get posted to Robbery or Narcotics..."
Captain Sharp chuckled amusingly.
"As I said, Miss Elliott, I have no positions at this time. I may have a patrol position opening p in a month or two. Right now, what I need is a secretary. If you help me outwith this, maybe in a couple of months when I get my regular secretary back, I can see what I can do for you."
"I see." Shauna said weakly. Her hands were beginning to shake. So what's it going to be Miss Elliott? Can you help me out?"
