I really liked the idea of being a police officer but- I don't have the heart for it anymore. Mounted officers are just for show anyway, everyone knows that. And, I'd want to use my horse, but he's not the right breed or size. Last week I just stopped going to training and the likelihood of going back is so slim especially after what happ. I've

Well, that's awfully mysterious of you to say.

If I tell you something can I trust you to keep it to yourself?

Phoenix

Dude, it's me. I'm good at secrets.

Devin

That's what I thought. Listen, I've been working for this- organization and I killed a lot of people. A room full of people. They were all goons and I don't feel sorry. At all. In fact, I liked it. And I think I'm going to keep doing it.

[A pen streak, and then a long pause.]

Wow. Phoenix, I don't know what to say. That's... I mean, obviously I don't have anything against killing people. It's just that I never knew about this part of you.

I take it the little woman doesn't know.

I've been suppressing it for a long time. You know how I get with just a light gun in my hand- it's ten times worse with a real one.

She doesn't have a clue. She even believed my story about where I got my brand new award winning horse. It's terrible. If she knew it would be over.

I know how that goes. It's good to let these things out. Just don't get caught, you hear me? Last thing I need is you in jail too. Besides, you're too fucking pretty for prison.

Take it from somebody who knows, these kinds of secrets are hard to keep hidden. Good luck, though. Hopefully she doesn't go snooping.

I'll be careful. I'm just a bodyguard, the last person they'd arrest compared to the people I work with.

I know. And I don't want to hurt her.

Phoenix

[unbearded]

Good. And be careful with whatever shit you're getting in, too. If you get shot, I'm going to have to kill you.

Then you better hope she doesn't find out and nothing happens to you. That's all. Just be careful and hope.

If you need anything, ever, you know my number. And you know I've got your back.

Thanks, Dev. And, you know if you need anything from me don't be afraid to ask.
