Chapter 2-4

Inside the main office at the DWU Danny is looking over a massive stack of paperwork while talking with a very happy Lewis. Taylor is also there and seems to be thinking seriously.

Georgia knocks on the door before walking in. "So how does it look, Danny?"

Danny looks up knowing exactly what Georgia is talking about. "Structurally it's alright? A few of the catwalks need to be replaced. I would also recommend redoing the ceiling."

"Am currently wondering how far my powers extend beyond ships, Like could I use it for naval bases? Or is it just for ships?" Georgia asks in wonder.

"That would be interesting to find out," Danny says

"Won't steal work from the union I know. Though if I can secure the building and replace and fix the old supports and pretty it up. Could I rely on you all for the electronics and interior? I also want it built to Florida building code," Georgia says

"That is unnecessary, and you know it," Danny says

"Tempered glass windows, Ties to hold the ceiling down so it doesn't blow off. Walls are able to resist wind of up to 110 miles per hour. Oh and heat resistant roofing tile." Georgia says

"You want to fortify it?" Danny asks

"Bingo, and since it'll be a naval museum it wouldn't be off for it to look like one. Though I want you all to avoid fortress construction like its a plague," Georgia says

"Cape stuff?" Danny asks

Georgia just nods in confirmation.

"Fine you go check it out, I'll send the boys to get started," Danny says

"Also, you and Taylor? How is that?" Georgia asks

"I don't understand how that's relevant to you?" Danny says

"Hey! I'm right here," Taylor says

"Boss, you're my boss. You are aware of this right? I mean if you wanted someone who's a powerhouse to watch over her or just to be nearby in case she gets into trouble. I would be happy to help," Georgia says

"I don't have any plans on patroling," Taylor says

"Taylor you're worrying me. You've told me nothing at all and you've been being bullied since you started high school. Luckily Lewis is more than happy to take a shot at the PRT. Speaking of which Georgia doesn't happen to have any more damming info do you?" Danny asks

Taylor stops talking knowing her dad is right.

"Kinda? It's just speculation. I mean it's circumstantial at best. I don't know if you would even be able to present it in a jury trial. I mean maybe if it's phrased correctly?" Georgia says

"Coil's mercenaries are a bunch of retired police and Protectorate workers. None of the ward's costumes are bulletproof let alone resistant. Rachel Lindt had several false charges thrown on her by the PRT. That along with her being autistic I don't know if her name will ever be cleared. Hmm what else? Ah right the youth guard is corrupt and doesn't really care about the children's safety," Georgia says finishing her speech.

"You really dislike them Huh?" Danny says

The author's tale has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.

"Well considering what one of their wards did to Taylor," Georgia says

Lewis nods writing everything down. "This is going to be a challenge but a fun one."

"Yep, now I've got to check the old shipway's," Georgia says

======================

Georgia is standing before rusting old scaffolding. There is no roof and no walls.

"Well, let's give it a try." Georgia says touching the scaffolding.

"Hmm kinda?" Georgia says confused before putting her hands on the ground.

"You need to construct more pylons… you've got to be kidding me," Georgia says giggling.

"I need more resources, well let's fix what I can and leave the rest to the dock workers," Georgia mutters as several cracks in the concrete begin to close and the rust on the support structures begin to disappear.

"So, we need to floor over the middle one to have ample area then the left and right ones need to be restored. A ceiling will need to be built aswell. You getting this?" Georgia asks

Several of the dock works had shown up to watch about 70 of the naval yard repair itself. Including the dry dock.

"Loud and clear, also you do know this is mostly as thanks for getting rid of the graveyard and tanker," Kurt says

"I would've done that anyways you guys know. I mean I am just trying to bring a touch of southern hospitality to this cold broken place." Georgia says with a smile.

"Where you from anyways?" Lacy asks

"Florida," Georgia says

Several of the dockyard workers wince. After all that state is basically dead with leviathan. The nice beaches lay abandoned, Miami was underwater along with parts of Jacksonville. Clearwater has washed away. FEMA actually died trying to help the gulf coast. When the leviathan hit Panama it paralyzed the economy down there.

"How's Lewis doing?" Georgia asks

"Happy, extremely happy. Did you have anything to do with it?" Kurt asks

"So, you know how you can't technically sue the government? Turns out the PRT is not actually included in that little tidbit of the law. So he is going to have a fun day bring down the local school administration and PRT for gross negligence of duty. It will be one I bring the popcorn out for," Georgia says smiling

"Oh? That explains why Danny just blacklisted the entire school district from union work. Not to mention our partnership with other unions. They aint gonna get any work done," Kurt says smiling.

"Yep, so while you all do this. I need to take a road trip. I managed to get some appointments to stop at a place in Boston along with New Jersey. If anything happens I shouldn't be more than 2 hours out," Georgia says

"You are leaving again?" Kurt asks

"Yes, since we aren't open yet and Danny is busy with what I am assuming is a lawsuit. I plan on getting some more prework done before I'm required to stay here most of the time," Georgia says
