"That is his choice," said Audra simply.� She glanced toward the guards to have them come in and take Pony away.� She had nothing more to say.

As Audra and the JAG lawyer left another conversation began. "Well, Commander Firehawk, this looks like it will be an interesting case. I will probably get the case once it is officially turned over to JAG for trial. It was good to work with you. Perhaps we will have the oppertunity again."

"I would like that.� Thank you for accepting the challenge of working with me," she said.� She wanted to smile, but she just didn't feel like it right now.� "I just wished that things had turned out better."

"What are you talking about? Things turned out fine. You nabbed a bad guy, and a rather big one at that. I am assuming that you got to him by way of other members of his organization. That means not only did you take out a key figure, but his part of the organization as well. So what, you did not take out the entire organization. Not a big deal. Elliot Ness did not get all of Capone's gang, but he did get Capone and a few of his nasties on the way. You did a great job here with this thug. You should be proud of yourself. It may even help you make Captain sooner than you think." he countered with a smile.

"The only problem with what you said is that the Chicago mafioso was around for a lot longer the Capone.� These guys are dangerous.� Taking down more guys would have meant less of a chance of people getting hurt."

He smiled wide. "You are young... Don't go looking for big battles or try to win wars in grand measures, Commander. Just take on the little battles as they come. In the end, it is the little battles that win the war."
