Angelica was still there, waiting anxiously. She held and had been examining the gag that Stacy had worn, but when Jim emerged from the office, she quickly put it down, away from her. The lady guard sat at the desk, seeming to be busy with paperwork. "Am I still to help with this?" Angelica asked, as if fearing that she had been eliminated from the plan. "Of course, we will have you sign all the papers in a moment, and then we will swear you in as a deputy." "Do I get to wear a badge, like in the Westerns?" asked Angelica with a flirtatious smile. Jim returned her smile. "No, no badge, but since you are helping with a law enforcement matter, it is required that you be a deputy of a U.S. Marshal." "Do I get to carry a gun?" she asked. "No, no gun," replied Jim. "Come, on, let's get this paperwork out of the way so we can get to work. You said that you had six days free?" "That's right," said Angelica, standing up, and making sure that her white blouse was properly tucked in, she reached around her back to neaten up. "Then we will limit your deputation to that time. Also, there are several other papers to sign, putting you under my jurisdiction, and that will be it." Jim opened the door to the Colonel's office, and ushered her in. The Colonel met them both at the door, and shook Angelica's hand after she offered it. "I am Angelica Perez," she said. She stood proudly with her breasts out, awaiting instructions. Realizing that he was expected to lead the proceedings, the Colonel took her arm and ushered her to one of the two chairs in front of his desk. Jim and Angelica sat down. "Angelica, I have been asked by Jim, in his capacity as a Federal Marshal, to witness your deputation. Also, I have several papers here that Jim has requested me to have available in order for him to fulfill his mission to find the slavers that are operating in Mexico, and to locate and secure the release of Mrs. Renee Wentworth. "I have reviewed his plan, and I think that it is a good one, one that may work. Your role is both critical and heroic. Are you willing to work on this case, as Jim has requested?" "I am proud to serve in this capacity," said Angelica confidently. "I have personal reasons for seeing these horrible crimes stopped." Her voice quivered. The Colonel looked at Jim and nodded. It seemed that Jim had stumbled into a particularly helpful and motivated volunteer. "Good, Miss Perez. Please stand up," said the Colonel. She did so, and Jim also rose. "Do you solemnly swear to be deputy of the United States Marshal Jim Fredericks, and uphold the laws of the United States of America?" "I do," said Angelica.
