Second chances a Tom Rhansohoff novel
Tom Rhansohoff and his family had been in villkaris for a while now. After Richards death Mayor ark had relocated vilkaris to another planet called Amtor. It was an M class planet like earth but they were no longer landlocked and the city had grown massively to Tom's surprise. His life went on as normal. He had mostly retired,only occasionally getting calls from the PD to help on cases, Tom had also had his own detective TV show for a bit which he actually enjoyed, it was filmed for the vilkaris TV network and lots of people actually liked it. He now tried to focus more time on his family, something he never did before and he found it to be too hard too late. His kids were grown and in college and his wife was gone at work, and after big momma died Tom basically had the house to himself, the quiet was actually hard to get used to. Tom often felt restless, a big 6 foot 300 pound muscular wolf wasn't designed to lounge around. Despite being 57 now he still had lots of life, maybe a bit less energy but he could still hold his own. Tom still exercised regularly to burn off excess energy, whether it was on a treadmill, lifting weights or going for a Run he needed to stay in shape. It was a humid spring sunny morning, Tom was sitting on his porch sipping some tea. It was too quiet, Tom still half expected big momma to walk out the door with a pitcher of tea and plate of fresh pastries at any time. The memories lingered. Suddenly a vilkaris Dodge Challenger PD car pulled up at about 9 am. Tom stood up, he could smell the apprehension coming off the 2 fit muscular male anthropomorphic German shepherd police officers as they got out and approached him. Ed and Jason Tom recognized them by their scent immediately. He had worked with them before and they were good souls but they weren't happy to be here…not today. They approached Tom with sadness in their eyes. “Tom…please sit down,” Ed said. Tom sensed he should and sat back on the wicker chair. “Tom…your son Damon…. He was killed in a car accident this morning around 6:30 am… I'm sorry” Jason said. Tom dropped his glass and it shattered.
WHA??? NO…WHAT? Tom repeated. His voice, for the first time in a while, was shaky,he trembled for the first time in forever…. He couldn't believe it… first he lost Richard,then big momma now his son what was next William?. “I'm so sorry Tom,” Jason said, placing a hand on Tom's shoulder. Tom put his hands over his face and muzzle. “We need you to come to the coroner's office and ID the body,” Ed said. Tom looked up.. “yes..yes I will because I don't believe it”.
Tom went to the coroner office in the second town building in the thriver woods district. A massive place that housed courthouses, a police precinct, The DA office and prosecutor office. It was in the basement,Tom had been there too many times. Jeff the coroner, a stone cold old anthro Wolf with very grey fur that had served in 3 wars pulled the body out of the refrigerator. To Tom's horror it was his son, The Reality Hit him like a gut punch.
Later back home Tom just sat quietly in his living room, processing everything, he made the funeral arrangements before leaving the coroner's office,once he got home he cried for an hour straight,he didn't even cry that much when big momma died or Richard. This was his son… gone. He poured himself a glass of brandy. There was a knock at the door and William entered “How are you holding up big guy?” He asked softly “heard what happened” he said sitting beside Tom. “I don't know what to think or feel…it's just… I can't even “Tom said. He then offered William a glass of brandy which William accepted. The 2 friends just sat there for a while with their arms around each other loosely
Finally around 5 pm Tom heard a car pull up,his ear twitched. He lost track of time, and his wife was home. William stood up “I'll go…your family is gonna need the space” he said and made his exit. Tom's wife Linda, a beautiful slim black lady that loved him to death entered the house. She could immediately pick up something wrong when she saw him. “Sit down here we need to talk” she sat beside him and he put his massive furry arm around her and then broke the news. She cried in horror before burying her face in his chest. They both cried together. It was not a fun evening. It only got worse later when Emily and smoky came home for dinner. They broke the news to them as well and they all cried. Linda tried making dinner, she had been trying hard to fill big momma shoes but she couldn't focus,not now. And when dinner was served nobody wanted to eat, Tom had to force the food down. Nobody spoke and the mood was grim.
The next morning Tom awoke as sunlight pierced the curtains. He checked the clock. 7:30 Rarely did he sleep in this late. But he didn't get up, and didn't move immediately like usual. Instead he turned on his side, put his arm around his wife and just remained still and quiet. He thought it was a nightmare…just a nightmare but no it happened. Eventually Linda awoke. Kissed him without a smile, and slowly got up and went downstairs. Tom joined everyone shortly after for breakfast but again the mood was grim and nobody really wanted to eat despite the platter of pancakes present. “When's the funeral?” Smoky finally spoke. “Next Tuesday at the new cemetery….11 am…” Tom responded softly.
Later once everyone left, his 2 remaining kids and wife Tom were alone with his thoughts again. He then went upstairs to his office. He fired up his desktop. Tom didn't use social media much however he had an anthrobook account, blank mostly but he decided to make a post “it is with soul crushing tears I write that my son Damon has passed away unexpectedly yesterday. I'm in a lot of pain right now” he attached a picture of his son in his uniform,taken on his first day at Vilkari's University and pressed post. An hour later Tom checked again, surprised to see so much sympathy and support from Damon's friends and family. It eased the heartache slightly. However that all changed when an email rolled in
you have received a court summons tomorrow at 9 am in the case of Tom Rhansohoff vs Larry vilkaris in the accident involving your son. Charges have already been filed however you can meet with the prosecutor prior to the trial
Larry… Tom recognized his name… Larry was a 37 year old skinny yet well built goth punk anthro wolf with a rather intimidating look despite not being the biggest wolf around, he was roughly richards size and had a bad driving record, however he was well liked in town, and had been a very successful architect and mechanic. He was also once Richard's close friend…it would've killed Richard a second time to see this happen. Tom's blood began to boil, he felt himself getting angry, he clenched his fist but the anger simmered away just as quickly as it came. Tom needed a drink. A stiff one. He texted his friend group
Tom arrived at his favorite pub around noon. Usually he didn't come so early. It was an old English style pub with a cozy feel. William, agent jackal and alpha and wergros were sitting at a table. Tom joined them. The bartender came by “want your usual Tom? You're here a bit early ""no I want the hardest whiskey you got…on the rocks please and keep them coming” tom replied. The bartender nodded and walked off. “I'm really sorry to hear about your son Tom… as a father myself I know the pain” said alpha. Alpha was a very big muscular burly anthro wolf with brown fur even bigger than Tom.. alpha HAD 3 sons. One of which died a year ago. A part of alpha's happiness seemed to die with him. “Let it be a reminder to all don't take life for granted” William chimed in sipping his brandy. Everyone toasted to that.
“You know….I'm thinking.. Tom began after 3 whiskeys… Richard gave me a second chance…what if I do the same thing for Damon?” Everyone stopped. “Wait tom…you mean like….” William began “yes.. a new body like I got”. “That's a tall order Tom…. You know Richard isn't around anymore and I'm not sure progress laboratories even does that anymore…besides is it ethical?” William asked “well we were given the chance, why not Damon? He was only 25 and 2 weeks away from graduation” Tom said bluntly “well it's up to you and your family but please talk it over with your wife… you don't want to make a huge hasty decision” alpha said. He was right…perhaps the grief or the liquor was talking. Tom paid his tab and left.
That evening Tom's wife arrived home again. Tom was sitting at the dining table looking through photo albums, some of the photos were old, taken in Denver when Tom was still human, and Damon a baby. They were warm yet haunting in a way. Tom looked up “How was work?” He asked. “Terrible…couldn't focus, couldn't get anything done…I'm taking the next 2 weeks off” Linda said looking over his shoulder and at the photos. She put her arm around him and he returned the favor “gosh seems like time flies doesn't it? Seems like only yesterday we got married” she said softly. “Honey I was thinking of something…” Tom began “oh no here we go you got another idea? Now?” She responded. “Just hear me out. What if Damon got a second chance….like me?” He said turning to look at her “wait you mean like??? But Tom? Oh…baby I don't know about that…it's too much to think about too soon” she said. “But we have a short window until the funeral,” Tom said. She sat down beside him at the table. “Tom…what happened to you was ... .shoot I just…don't know would it be right?” She began “he was only 25 and a few weeks from graduation… he hadn't even started his life yet” Tom said bluntly. “Well let's just think about it… don't forget the trial is tomorrow let's at least get that over with first
The next morning Tom awoke, showered and got dressed in his best suit, his wife walked up behind him as he combed his face “you look sexy big guy” she said wrapping her arms around him and kissing his neck, she was already dressed in her business casual as well. His bushy tail gave a slight wag…he couldn't help it. “Sure don't feel it though…. The kids up and ready?” He asked. “Yep they're getting dressed” she said kissing his neck again “we'll eat breakfast then go” she said sighing deeply. Tom could tell she was masking her heartache as much as possible. Today wouldn't be fun.
After Breakfast The family arrived at the courthouse around 8 Tom wanted to see the prosecutor before the trial, while in the lobby Tom saw him… Larry talking to his lawyer. Tom's blood started heating again but quickly faded away, Larry wasn't looking good, disheveled and like he hadn't slept in days, they made eye contact… Larry looked terrified, haunted even. Tom realized then nobody had probably ever seen Larry like this before. Tom kissed his wife then headed to the prosecutors office.
The prosecutor for this case was Bill Fultner, a no nonsense wolf in his 40s with a mustache and grey fur and green eyes who was well known for being professional but also had plenty of empathy. “Tom, please sit down,” he began. Tom did. Fultner folded his hands on his desk “the charges being brought against Larry are vehicular manslaughter and failing to stop at a traffic light. It's a tough case.. I understand it was an accident… and given Larry's reputation there's certain things I can and can't do…I also have to uphold the standards we expect… So tell me Tom, is there anything in particular you're looking to add to the case or get out of it?” He asked seriously. Tom knew the vilkaris court was far different than others, he also knew it was an accident. “No amount of punishment is going to bring back my son… do whatever you see fit” Tom said, feeling the energy drain from him. Fultner nodded. “Very well I'll handle it. You're excused” he said.
Tom returned to his family “well how'd it go?” His wife asked. “He's handling it,” Tom said sitting down. When the courthouse opened they went in and took their seats, the prosecutor entered and sat at his place preparing his case, Larry Came in with his lawyer and took their seats at the defendants table. “Which judge do we have?” Linda whispered to Tom. “Judge ashura” Tom said. “ALL RISE” the bailiff shouted “Docket number 467 state of vilkaris vs Larry vilkaris” judge ashura a 5 foot 4 chubby 290 pound anthro wolf with blue fur and green eyes and flat combed blue hair exited his chambers and took his seat, as did everyone else. He looked around at everyone then reviewed his notes “Larry vilkaris your being brought here on charges of vehicular manslaughter and failing to stop at a Red light how do you plead?” Ashura asked. “Guilty your honor” Larry's lawyer said. Ashura turned to the prosecutor “council”. “Your honor we reviewed the case , at the time of the incident we obtained video surveillance of that intersection and it clearly shows the defendant roll through a red light and cause the crash, although it was an accident it claimed the life of someone, and this isn't the defendants first offense 2 years ago the defendant ran a stop sign and caused another accident, also back in 2002 The defendant committed another violation in another jurisdiction,we request the defendant be remanded to custody,have their license revoked and pay restitution to the victims family” Fultner stated. Ashura turned to the defendants table “Defense?” “your honor my client has admitted to his wrong doing, he has expressed his remorse for what he's done, we request bail and my client has agreed to give up his license, he has built an outstanding reputation in this community as a mechanic and architect and is well liked by all and valuable to the community, we don't believe this mistake should ruin his life. He has ties to this community and no desire to leave this jurisdiction" at which Tom couldn't help but roll his eyes. Judge Ashura sat back , the gears in his head turning,he knew all the ups and downs and it also wasn't his first time dealing with Larry. “Given the circumstances” he began, sitting forward and folding his hands and then looking directly into Larry's eyes, something he did with every defendant “I understand this was an accident, however you've done this before, you've also been a trouble maker before, even before coming to our town, you've been given lots of chances, you also have left our jurisdiction before… this is strike 3 Larry you're out, That being said.. I'm sentencing the defendant to 90 days in minimum security prison since it's your first time in jail, upon release you'll be placed on parole, I'm revoking your drivers license immediately, and I'm ordering you to pay restitution in the amount of $100,000 to the victim's family, the clerk will meet with you later to arrange payments if you cannot afford to pay it your assets will be seized and wages garnished, your remanded to custody immediately, case closed court dismissed” with the gavel struck the life drained from Larry, Tom and his family watched him get led away looking defeated. Tom noticed his wife was tense and seething with rage.
“ 90 DAYS!??! 90 DAYS?!!! THATS IT FOR KILLING OUR BABY” Linda screamed as they pulled out of the parking lot. “I CANT FUCKING BELIEVE IT THAT MOTHERFUCKER DESERVES LIFE!!! she was shaking with rage now. “I know it's not what you wanted but… honey it was an honest to God accident and I could see in his eyes he truly regretted it, no amount of punishment is going to bring Damon back, Larry's life is gonna be ruined anyway after this” Tom replied. Linda sighed deeply composing herself “I suppose you're right… it's just… the grief talking” Tom finished
That evening Tom and Linda sat on the covered porch, and rain started to fall. “So should we go through with the whole second chance resurrection thing? Tom asked finally. “Well I suppose you could try…you'd have to contact Richards son ice since he runs the lab now from what I heard” she said. Tom pulled his phone out and composed an email From [email protected] To [email protected]
Do you by any chance still do…second chances the way Richard did? I'm interested in your services. Please respond as soon as possible
Not even a minute after sending his phone buzzed with a reply
Yes we still do you can come in tomorrow and meet with us first thing and we can discuss the process
Very well, Tomorrow it is. Tom went on his anthrobook account later and deleted his post about Damon's funeral. Won't be needing it
The next morning Tom and his wife arrived at progress laboratories around 9 am. They parked in the garage next to the 10 story glass office building and walked inside to the lobby. A cyborg at the circulation desk greeted them then led them to a conference room on the 3rd floor where they waited. After half an hour Richards son ice a 5 foot 6 male anthropomorphic wolf with white fur and piercing blue eyes wearing a lab coat entered the room and shut the door. “Mr and Mrs Rhansohoff thank you for coming. It's good to see you” he said, shaking both of their hands before sitting down. “I understand your interested in our services?” He asked folding his hands. “Yes..we want to give our son Damon a second chance at life the same way Richard did for me” Tom said. “Are you both in agreement on this?” Ice asked. “Yes I've agreed” Linda responded. “You must understand what we do here isn't exactly normal… there's much to consider, and we can't create new human bodies only anthropomorphic bodies, you must consider how this will affect you and everyone else sense a lot of people feel very differently about what we do… it isn't considered ethical by all.. we also don't want you guys making any hasty decisions as a result of grief… that being said are you sure you really want to go through with this?” Ice asked serious. Tom and his wife looked at each other then back at ice “were certain” Linda said. “Very well we have a lot of paperwork to sign before we get started and require a $30,000 fee…payments available ok?” Ice said “that's fine..Tom began.. whatever the cost to bring our baby back” Linda finished. “But how exactly does it work?” Linda asked “I'll show you in a bit” ice said smiling.
After the paperwork was finished and a deposit made ice led them to the top floor and into a huge lab that looked like a stereotypical scifi movie. Futuristic equipment everywhere, test tubes, scientists sitting at tables performing various tasks. Soon they arrive at a massive black server roughly 8 feet tall and 3 feet wide, on one side of it a terminal, on the other a large stasis chamber. “This is it. It's a giant AI server that creates bodies out of thin air. You upload an image of what you want to the terminal,click start and it materializes in the stasis chamber. I will warn you because it's AI it has flaws, sometimes the bodies can have imperfections or develop health issues… I'm not 100 percent on the specifics of the machine itself. I only know my Father acquired it many years ago when AI was first becoming a thing in the 80s. It's very old but reliable… it did create you after all Tom” Tom and his wife both looked in awe, then the memories flooded Tom's mind again, he remembered waking up on a table in a lab much like this, that very machine sitting not far away…it was haunting in a way. “Well it certainly did a fine job on me I'm sure it will on Damon” Tom said “how soon can you start?” Linda asked. “Tomorrow afternoon we have to submit an order to have his body exhumed from the coroner's office and you have to email me a picture of what you want him to look like”. “We'll leave the image up to you. I trust your judgement” Linda said. Ice looked at Tom who nodded in approval “very well I'll do my best but just know there's no going back”
Later at lunch Tom and Linda broke the news to Emily and smoky and they were ecstatic. “Damon gets a whole new body like you dad? That's so cool, "Smoky said beaming. Tom smiled, holding him close “yes it is isn't it?” “I can't wait to see him again,” Emily added. Later that evening Tom and Linda were lying in bed together, it was dark in the room but they couldn't sleep “do you think we made the right choice? I'm having second thoughts… I mean it's entirely against all religion but” Linda began . Tom put his powerful furry arm around her and kissed her, his whiskers tickling her cheek as usual” I think so… Damon was aspiring to do so many great things in Life and his life was cut short unexpectedly…not naturally” he said. “Ok…I trust your judgement… my big strong wolf” And with that they made love to each other silently.
2 days went by and Tom and Linda hadn't heard anything. They were getting restless. Finally around 9 am on a Friday the phone rang and Tom answered. “Hello?” “Yes Mr Rhansohoff it's Dr Ice your son's transfer was successful.. he's awake, albeit a bit weirded out. You can come see him now” ice said “I'll be there soon” Tom said hanging up. He told Linda and they quickly rushed to get ready, smoky and Emily also insisted on coming and Tom just couldn't say no. They all got in the car and drove across town, the waiting was killing them. Finally they arrived,parked and went in. Dr Ice was waiting. “Hello everyone please follow me” they got in the elevator and went to the top floor and got out, they started walking and arrived at a door with a sign “recovery suite” Tom knew it all too well, years ago upon his creation him and William stayed in one for a week for observation following their creation. “Now please don't overwhelm him too much he's a bit… apprehensive about the change” ice said opening the door. And there, on the couch, was Damon, or new Damon. He stood up when he saw them. He now had the body of an anthropomorphic Rottweiler. Handsome in all honesty, attractive, soft green eyes, and as he came around the couch they could see he had all the right curves. He was wearing a red T-shirt, and black shorts. Tom,Linda, Emily and Smoky froze when they saw him. Finally Tom spoke “Damon? Son? Is it really you?” “Yes Dad it's me…I'm…alive I guess” Damon responded in his same as before deep voice, a smile on his muzzle” with that, Tom, Linda, Emily and Smoky ran up and hugged him, they cried tears of joy. “God, it's really you son,” Tom said. “Yeah it's me now stop hugging me so tightly or you'll kill me a second time from crushing me to death” Damon said playfully. Remembering his own strength Tom's eyes snapped open and he pulled back “oh yeah right” he said embarrassed. “I'll leave you guys alone and be back in a bit” ice said leaving the room
They all sat down around Damon on the couch. “How do you feel son?” Tom asked. Damon looked down at his hands considering the question. “I feel..great I suppose…I mean I'm alive and all but…” he got up and walked away before turning back “it's just…this is surreal…I mean I died and here I am alive again…I just… don't know what to think” he said sitting down beside his father again his ears drooping slightly. Tom put his arm around his son “hey I know how you feel, it was a huge shock to me too when I woke up to find myself a wolf. It's gonna be a big change but you'll get used to it” Tom said. Damon looked up at him “why did you do this?” He asked. Linda chimed in before Tom could answer “because baby you were only 25 and a few weeks away from graduation…now you have a second chance” she said. “I know you're having doubts but consider it a blessing” Tom said. Just then Dr Ice returned “hope all is going well.Tom I'm sure you're aware Damon will remain here for a week for observation. You guys can visit him everyday until then between 9 am and 5 pm” ice said. “What will Damon be doing here?” Emily asked. “Damon will be undergoing lots of checkups, therapy, all kinds of stuff to make sure his new body works right,” ice said. “Now I'll be going if you need anything press the call button” ice said before leaving again. They spent a few more hours with their son catching up “it's gonna be a shocker when everyone finally sees me again huh?” Damon said. “I'm sure it'll be a good one,” Tom said. Finally lunch time came and they got some food from the replicator and sat around the small table in the suite. Right off the bat Tom could see Damon struggling and getting frustrated as bits of food fell out of his mouth, anthros don't have lips designed like humans to hold food in. “You'll learn, believe me it was irritating for me too” Tom said. Damon smiled “yeah that's gonna be a challenge for sure”
A week later Damon was discharged. He was given a new Drivers license and a packet containing what to expect when adjusting to his new body. They got home and Damon's friends soon all came to visit, shocked by his new body. To Tom's horror some of them weren't happy with Them when they heard the news one of damons friends even said it was wrong to bring him back to life, causing Tom and Linda to have second thoughts. Damon had some trouble adjusting. He now had to brush his whole body daily, and vacuum regularly. He also overheated easily too. He re-enrolled in University and was able to finish and graduate and pass the bar exam. One evening Tom found Damon on the porch alone and sat down beside him “what's on your mind son you've been quiet lately” he asked. “It's just… ive been so blessed and I don't know what to do..not many get this chance… I've been given a gift” he said “and you won't waste it…you'll have a great life don't worry” Tom said putting his arm around him. Damon smiled and they watched the sun start to set. “Dad… Damon began turning to his father. Can we get Larry out of jail? I want to forgive him… give him another chance” Tom was taken aback by this. Larry….he had forgotten about him… Tom considered the question. Damon wasn't dead anymore “do you really want that? I mean…after..??” “Yes Dad… I forgive him he made a mistake… his life shouldn't be ruined over it” Damon said softly. Tom started tearing up again “well if it's what you want I'll see what I can do” Tom said hugging his son tightly. Later he sent an email to the prosecutor and judge ashura From [email protected]
I want to meet with you guys Tomorrow morning can I arrange that
He hit send and got a reply from judge Ashura shortly after
If you can make it quick I have an opening at 8:30 I'll see you in the prosecutors office
Tom went into the house with Damon to discuss it with Linda. She wasn't thrilled at the idea and irate at first but understanding. “If it's what our baby wants I'll allow it…I suppose he does deserve another chance” she said.
The next morning Tom, Linda and Damon went to the courthouse. They met in the prosecutors office with Bill and Judge ashura. Both were surprised to see Damon. “These are unusual circumstances… you're essentially asking me to drop all charges?” Fultner asked skeptically. “That's right my son Damon has made it clear he forgives Larry for what happened” Tom said. “This is definitely an unusual case as we don't take these things lightly” judge ashura says. “Give us a minute please,” Fultner said. Tom,Linda and Damon stepped out of the room and closed the door. “You think they'll do it?” Damon asked. “I don't know, son,” Tom said. “I know judge ashura he's stubborn and by the book.. they're gonna be deliberating for a bit” Linda said. Finally they were let back in the room. “The vehicular manslaughter charge will be dropped, Larry will still be on parole and have to retake driver's ed and reapply for a license if he wants to drive again and will be required to pay an additional $30,000 in restitution. Does that seem satisfactory to you?” Fultner asked. Tom looked at Damon who nodded then to his wife who nodded, then returned his gaze to Fultner “that'll be satisfactory to us” Tom said. Very well I'll get everything processed. “When will he be released?” Damon asked. Everyone was taken aback by this “probably this afternoon” judge ashura said. “Good, I want to see him later.. tell him to stop by my house” Damon said. Tom & Linda were a bit uneasy with this but would allow it
Later Tom, and Damon were sitting on the porch. Emily and Smokey were playing chess at the small table on the porch. Tom instantly perked up, he smelled Larry (the Wolf always emitted bad energy even if he wasn't bad) then right on que Larry appeared, walking down the sidewalk, he stopped at the end of the walkway, then approached the porch and looked towards Damon and Tom sheepishly. Damon got up and approached him, Tom stood up and watched. Damon stopped in front of Larry. Tom and Damon could both see Larry's eyes, they were full of sorrow,hurt, and some terror. Without a word Larry threw his arms around Damon and hugged him tight then broke down crying “I'm so fucking sorry dude… I messed up so badly… I hurt you and your family so much I…I.. never meant to it was my fault man” he said between sobs, Tom could tell Larry meant it, Larry was a total wreck, he wasn't as tough as he looked. “Hey it's alright I forgive you, we all make mistakes” Damon said. Larry finally composed himself. “Thank you” he turned to Tom “and thank you too” Larry said. “We all make mistakes, just tread carefully because somebody else might not be so nice about it you got Lucky…both of you” Tom said softly but sternly.
In the following weeks Damon passed the bar exam. His Father bought him a suit as a reward. Larry and Damon became great friends and Damon even made some other good friends .A few other anthro Rottweilers in town, Austin an awesome guy that loved his friends, Tyler, and Gary. Damon also began therapy wich helped with his Trauma.He managed to get his life back on track not taking for granted the new opportunity. One morning Damon woke up, it was Saturday, The following day He was set To start his new job at the Vilkaris public defenders office. The first stepping stone in his career. He joined his family for breakfast. Just as he was finishing up Tom spoke "I have a surprise for you come with me" he smile leading his son to the porch. In front of the house was a black 2010 Ford Taurus SHO. Tom handed Damon the keys. "I pulled some strings with our insurance company" he said. "Woah dad thanks" Damon responded hugging him tightly. "Now don't you go speeding around town and promise you'll take us all out sometime" Linda said. "I promise I will mom" Damon said. And with that Tom,his wife, and kids watched as Damon hopped into his car and slowly and carefully drove away
