Venice Beach, Los Angeles California
 
The 5 on 5 action is fast and furious on thebasketball court. The team with sleeveless tatter tees with LabTech printed on the back run a weaving fast break ending with a stylish 360 degree slam dunk by Joe Pepowitz.
 
Joe is a short husky 28 year old African-American waves to the team waiting to play.
 
 “You guys got next. We gotta go.”
 
A tall skinny guy called Skitts is bouncing the ball shaking his head.
 
“Come on JP, run it back. Most times ya go til 2”
 
“Got an early meeting today”, replies Joe.
 
Joe gives Skitts a sweeping low 5.
Joe smiling, “You boys got to tighten up that game”. Joe pats his shirt “Not even wet”.
 
The group waves goodbye and trots off to the strand. One of the players who has a Dodgers baseball cap turn backwards takes it off and shakes her head. Long waist length black silky hair streaked with reddish hi-lights whips Joe across the face.
 
“Damn! Throw a warning Meg”, exclaims Joe.
 
Megan Alverez a hot 25 year old Latina starts to giggle,
“All knowing Joe didn’t see it coming? Hmm you must be worried about something”.
 
Joe just shrugs as they reach the parking lot where an older very fit blonde in bright colored bikini is putting moves on a Popsicle. Chrissy Wellington reveals a fresh bruise on her butt as she leans over the row bar of the jeep kicking off her roller blades.
 
Chrissy looking annoyed, “It’s about time you got here. Even Dan beat you back”.
 
Joe asks, “ Chrissy, Where’s ourisland surfer dude?”.
 
Just than the dinged up van parked next to the jeep, door slides open and smoke pours out. A freckled face 30 year old dreadlock Brad Bovine steps out stretching his long arms.
 
Brad shouts, “Dudes! Ain’t life grand?! Let the smoke take you home to the easy life mon”.
 
Chrissy shakes her head, “Megs you better drive the van. Give Brad tine to get back to the earthly plane.”
 
“Ms. Chrissy it’s the new aroma I been working on to feel and feed the fire in the belly”, respond Brad.
 
Megan responds whining, “Ahh, abuela, I want to ride with you, Joe and Dan. Sid, Jimmy or Tuki can do it”.
 
Chrissy snaps back, “I told you about that granny crap. I’m still the manager of this group”.
 
They all look at each other knowingly, and kneel on the ground facing Chrissy with hands raised while they bow to her. Tourists stop to look at this spectacle. One old guy even snaps some pictures with his phone.
 
Chrissy tries to remain serious, but cracks a smile. “Ok you idiots get up. We are already running late”.
 
Megan jumps in the driver seat of the van. Puts her right palm on a front panel display, a green light blinks on the dash, then she types in her password and the van starts up. There is no place for an ignition key.
 
Driving past an old dark building with name ZVZ in neon, all occupants of the van and jeep give the building a middle finger salute.

Somewhere in Los Angeles CA


Police Commissioner Chris Stone is looking out his window watching smoke bathed in orange light in the distance of the Los Angeles skyline.

" Alright Jack, what is the status on these explosions?" demands  commissioner Stone.

"Sir, early reports say this was just a tragic accident caused by some gas leaks, but FBI and Homeland Security are on site and have not ruled out terrorism." respond Jack James whose is tapping on his IPAD as he talks.

"There have been 20 deaths and 10 people unaccounted for and multiple injuries." Jack wipes the soot from his eyeglasses.

"Make sure this is run by the numbers, check and double check facts because the CNN press will be all over my ass on this one. I want personal updates on the hour . We'll need to make a press statement for the 11 pm news. This LabTech company where the explosions occurred , what's their story?" ask as the commissioner spins around wiping his bald head to face Jack.

"Sir they are a small tech company that has developed breakthrough components for major manufactures of electronics, materials, energy and automated manufacturing processes. This was their main research facility that employed 105 people and another 50 scattered at different sites around the world.  Their net worth before this incident was about 10 billion and rapidly growing." Jack rattled off.

"I want you to dig down on this Jack,  make sure we don't have a preventable industrial accident that this company caused. Alert our legal staff we may have to sue them for damages and city services."
