Legalities

The woman brought John down a corridor and into a small private office. She slid the door shut and gestured for John to sit down behind her desk. "Okay John, I'm not happy with this." She began and sat down. "I know, and we are very grateful for this--"

"She's a fucking criminal John! Do you have any idea what this will do to Pinesdale's perfect reputation!?" She yelled at him angrily. "I know I know, Pinesdale has a clean slate no criminal records at all, but surely there's not a way to make her move in like any other normal citizen..?" John attempted to sway the woman's opinion.

The woman tapped a pen on her desk repeatedly and thought. "Well, we can accept her, but not as she is, she cannot be a citizen here as the rich and dangerous bitch she is, the neighbourhood watch will need to determine what citizen she will be, and I'm sure you're aware of the permit system?"

I am in agreeement with you she is incredibly dangerous, and that's why we can't tell her what you plan to do.." John responded. "Oh we can do that don't you worry. Okay, I will contact the neighborhood watch, they will get to work with finding the correct permit for her, in the meantime we will have Vanessa be made a citizen here in Pinesdale.

John gulped, terrified of what Vanessa would do to him, even more terrified of what these people would do to Vanessa... "Okay, I agree." He stood up and shook the woman's hand. "Alright, go sit with Vanessa, I'll have someone come over to you." The woman held the door open for John.

Vanessa grew continously impatient, furious about everything. When she saw John walk back up to her, she lowered her sunglasses expecting an answer. "Well..?" She asked. "They're making you a citizen here, you're all good." John told Vanessa. "Okay, good. They better accommodate me properly!" Vanessa demanded and put her sunglasses back over her eyes. John looked up, knowing exactly what was in store for Vanessa...
