The Dr. Magpie ChroniclesPrevious chapters can be found on these dates; 6/25, 6/27, 6/30, 7/8, 7/11, 7/22, 8/1, 8/14.
Chapter 9“So now young lady, it’s your turn to answer a simple question and tell me who you are”! Annie pondered how she should answer his question. Tracy was after all an employee of her daddy. She quickly realized she couldn’t reveal who she was. At least not yet! “My name is Shirley Bell. I’ve been staying with some relatives of mine”. Annie saw what seemed like a little smile cross Tracy’s face. While she was wondering what had just made him do this some airport police officers finally came over to where they were standing, Tracy excused himself for a moment, asking Annie not to leave and went over to talk to them. After a few moments all of them walked over to where Annie was standing, one of them holding a camera in his hand which was extended towards her. “Excuse me Miss but would you mind taking a picture of us with Mr. Tracy? “Annie was quite surprised by this request but agreed to take the picture, handing the camera back to the officer after doing so. “Thanks for taking care of this for me”. Tracy called out to them as he began to walk away. Annie could tell by Tracy’s face she must not have done a good job of hiding her puzzlement. “I spent a little time on the police force some years ago. For some reason they heard of me and wanted a picture of us.” “How nice of them”. Annie dryly blurted out, wanting to come across as indifferent. “We can go”, Tracy said, “they said they’d arrest this guy for trespassing and jail him”. Annie wondered why this Tracy fellow that daddy had working for him could get the cops to leave her out of this situation. Normally they’d make her go to the station to give a statement. “Don’t they want to interview me about his attack on me”? Annie said to him. Tracy stopped walking and looked right at her. “I figured you’d rather not get involved. You can catch up to them if you want”. Annie knew right away he was calling her bluff. “No, best to continue playing along”. She thought to herself. “I thought so. How about the two of us working together to find out who this Dr. Magpie fellow really is and why he wanted to kill you”? Annie suddenly realized that this was the adventure she’s come all the way here to go on, to find herself, and Tracy was the one to help her on this journey..To Be Continued……..

Good morning Annie fans. How big a favor have they done for the FBI? Will the info help find the other terrorist?
