*TONY'S POV

I started walking to the bar while fixing my scarf and my hat when I suddenly bump into a woman. 

"Sorry." I said. Then, I noticed that the lady dropped something. "Lady, this uh.." I said as picked up the item and she turned around and got the item from me. 

"Thank you." She said. I noticed that the scar mark on her one side face. 

"Nice haircut, suits you." I said while trying to focus on her eyes instead of the scars.

"Nice watch." She said as she looked at my Dora The Explorer watch.

"Yeah, limited edition." I said.

"Oh, I don't doubt it." The lady said. "Well, have a good evening." The lady continued then, walks away. I continued to enter the bar and looked at the surroundings. I got a drink and brought the glass to the table where Mrs. Davis sat.

"Mrs. Davis, mind if I join you?" I asked her.

"Free country." She said. 

"It sure is." I took that note to take a seat in front of her.

"Alright. Where'd you like to start?" Mrs. Davis asked.

"I just want to say I'm sorry about your loss. I want to know what you think happened."

"Look, I brought your damn file. You take it and go." She said as she put down the files in front of me. I looked at the files and sees Chad Davis name and a 'Confidential'. "Whatever was in here, he wanted no part of it." She continued. I opened the files and I saw pictures of Chad Davis.

"Clearly, you're waiting for someone else. Yeah? Supposed to meet somebody here?"

"Yeah." She said softly. I began looking at the files when I noticed a photo of Taggert beside his photo.

"Mrs. Davis, your son didn't kill himself, I guarantee you. He didn't kill anyone. Someone used him." I said softly to her.

"What?" 

"As a weapon." 

"You're not the person who called me after all, are you?" Mrs. Davis asked. Just then, someone's phone slammed on the table.

"Actually, I am." I looked at the person and saw the girl that I bumped just outside the bar. Just then, she grabbed me and pushed me down the table, causing a scene inside the bar. I immediately grabbed the dog tags of Chad and swiftly put it on my pocket. She held my arms and I felt handcuffs on my wrist.

"Hey, hey, hey! What's all this about? What the hell's going on here?" The man said.

"It's called an arrest." The girl replied as she pushed me down the ground. "Sheriff, is it?" She asked as she went near the Sheriff.

"Yes ma'am, it is. And you are?"

"Homeland Security." She replied as she show her badge. "We good here?"

"No, we're not good. I need a little more information than that." The Sheriff replied.

"Well, I think it's a little above your pay grade, Sheriff."

"Yeah, well, why don't you get on the horn to Nashville and uh...upgrade me?" Just then, I looked at Mrs. Davis and gestured her to hide the files. She slowly put down the file and tossed it under the bar. 

"Alright, you know what? I was hoping to do this the smart way, but uh...the fun way's always good." The girl said. But then, I noticed that her hand is turning into a orange red hot color, burning the badge in her hand.
