Sorry, it kinds of loses something in the interpolation here. Not sure what to do about that.
Well, here we go again folks! I've got enough chapters going on here that I've decided to reboot So How Does Your Costume Fit 2. I've been casting around for a new name to give it, preferably something better, but haven't come up with anything yet. We'll have to see what develops.
To all my fans, thank you for being so patient with me. I do this for fun, you know, and to no set schedule so my postings can be...erratic to say the least.

I don't bite...well at least, not often.
Kidding aside, I hope you enjoy this new work in progress, and to those of you worried about my burnout with the Dragon and Unicorn postings, be assured that I am working on a new chapter on that, but I have to fully map out where the third part is going to go. Don't expect anything in the near future though!
For now, Enjoy!

A police cruiser traveled slowly down the street, its searchlight running over the buildings and cars. Inside the vehicle were the forms of three cops, two in the front and one in the back. The shadowed form in the passenger seat came into brief relief under the flickering light. It revealed a youth of about twenty ye
