Craig Walker had just ended his shift at the textile plant and was headed toward his car when he saw a small man leaning on his car, obviously waiting for him.
“Who the fuck are you and get off my car asshole.” Craig snarled
He opened his arms, “Or what” Choi scoffed.
The small man was blocking his way. Craig snarled, “I told you to get off my car, or I’m going to fuck you up you chink.”
Choi chucked. “That is what I am here for. You see, I have a friend and this friend said you are a pervert that likes to molest little children. “ Choi stood up and approached Craig menacingly.
Craig laughed, “Who told you that load of crap?”
“My friend told me, Allen but you may know her as Alicia. You are Craig, Kathy’s Boyfriends. “
Craig’s face darkened seriously. “Allen is a little pervert that dresses like a girl. “
Choi was a few feet away from Craig, he thought he was safe enough away, not that Craig was at all afraid. He was a lot taller than choi standing around 6 foot tall and Choi was closer to 4 foot tall. The other man looked in his late 30s but none of that mattered. Choi closed the distance between them in a flash and somehow, to fast to see exactly what had happened, Choi struck out with devastating power. Before craig knew what had happened, he was doubled over holding his stomach and his feet were swept from under him.
He was hit in the stomach with more strength than he had ever been hit with before. He didn’t know speed and power like this was possible from a human. “What the fuck.”
Then Choi struck again and grabbed Craig’s arm and wrenched it out. “Damn your weak Craig. I guess your just good at fighting 12-year-old kids. “ SNAP. Craig’s elbow snapped apart. “Allen told me everything. Her sister forced her to dress she never wanted to before. Not that is any kind of justification for sexual abuse or beating. You can take this as a lesson in tolerance, you scum. Choi pulled back and kicked the doubled over man across the face and he was out. Then, he left Craig there and drove away. That was fun.
“The doctor’s ready for you Alicia. Come on back.” A woman told her
Alicia winced and stood up gracefully and went to the back with Jessica. When she reached the doctors office, she saw him sitting behind a large desk that he kept maticously cleaned and many books on a bookshelf behind him. the place had a very orderly formal atmosphere. She sat on a couch large comfortably looking couch in-front of the desk and looked up at the older man behind the desk.
He opened the discussion, “Alicia Peterson, I am doctor John Patrick. I want you to feel comfortable with me. I also want you to know we wont talk about anything you wish not to, till your ready.”
She nodded to him, “I don’t like to be called Alicia. Can you please not call me that anymore?”
“That is alright, what would you rather be called?”
“I don’t know. I used to be Allen but it sounds dumb since im so feminine looking and decided to go along with the transition. How about Heidi?”
He thought for a few seconds. “Heidi is ok. It is your name so you get to choose. Now lets move along. You said you wanted to go along with a transition to female even though it started as being forced on you? Can you explain that to me, Heidi?”
Her forehead wrinkles as if she is thinking. “This matter is very difficult Doctor. The truth is I don’t want to go back to being a boy. I never want to be Allen again. I was turned into a girl and I cant be aboy again if I wanted to. As a boy, I was teased and abused. I am a girl now and that is something im going to have to get used to.
“In the past 4 years, I have gotten very adapt at being a girl. No one I know takes me for a boy. Even if doctors gave me enough testosterone, my mannerisms would still give me away. I cant be a boy and I wont go though another transition. Allen is gone. I will prove that I am strong enough to be a girl. Just, not the girl Kathy wanted. I will be a girl Kathy fears. “
He was busy writing things down on a pad while listening.
“Heidi this isn’t a contest of strength. It is your future. You don’t have to prove to anyone one damn thing. Your gender is how you feel inside. Forced feminization can’t be something pushed on someone and make them feel inside. You’re a boy or a girl and no one can force you to be the other sex regardless of how your body looks. I fear you have the wrong idea here Heidi. It wouldn’t be professional of me to let you go on being a girl if that isn’t how you feel inside.” He states in a very troubled manner.
“I feel female inside, doctor and I feel a little part of me that is male too. But mostly, female. “ Heidi stated.
The doctor mused for a few seconds taking all the girl said. Then finely, “I understand how you are feeling now..heidi. I will recommend that you have an appointment with a therapist specializing in gender identity disorder. I know a really good therapist and I’m going to recommend you to him.
Heidi said, “Thank you doctor. “
They spoke for about 40 more minutes and then he told Heidi to wait outside while he spoke to Jessica.
Ten minutes later Jessica came out and they left.
As Jessica drove them home, heidi just sat there thinking about all that was said.
Jessica spoke first, “I find it really interesting that you told me you were Allen but told the doctor there that you wanted to be called Heidi. Do you want me to call you Allen or Heidi?”
Heidi looked at Jessica for a few seconds and said defensively, “I don’t know jesss. The way I look and feel now, it seems dumb to call me by a boys name. I don’t look like an Allen and I don’t feel like an Allen. I feel more like a girl now than a boy. Allen was a weak boy that was abused by his sister. IM Heidi and I will show her that Heidi is a strong girl whom no one will abuse. You can call me Heidi now. Can you get my name changed?“
“Sure,” she said. “We can do that next morning. And stop threatening like this. Vengeance will just get you hurt or arrested. Let the Law take care of things, ok.”
Heidi shot back, “Like it did when I was twelve.” Then his voice was lased with sarcasm, “It did such a good job then didn’t it, Jessica.”
“You never reported it then. We would have protected you if you did. “
“My brother told me that if I did call the police then one would come and sexually abuse me because I was dressed as a girl.” Heidi stated evenly.
“Yeah you told me earlier, “ Jessica said. “I am sorry for that. That is what upset Choi so much. He will clear things up. He is a really good officer. “
They had been at Jessica’s house sitting on their sofa in front of the television for an hour when Jessica stood up saying, “I am hungry, do you want something to eat, Heidi. “ She smiled at the younger girl while calling her Heidi.
“Um really. It is kind of weird having people cook for me. I am used to women forcing me to make stuff for them. But I usually spit in it when the mistress wasn’t looking. “ She laughed.
Jessica laughed too. “I love calling you Heidi. It is easer seeing you as a girl than as a boy. IM so happy you chose to continue being a girl.”
“What ever, jess. It’s a identity forced on me and I simply don’t want to go though another few years of training trying to be a boy again. I wouldn’t fit in as a guy and you know it. “
“Ok so what do you want for supper, Heidi girl?”
Heidi looked be meanly. “I am not sure.” She growled. “I will eat what you want.”
“Al right Heidi girl.” “I will make us some spaghetti Alicia oh I mean Heidi.” She said kind of mockingly. Then smiling over her shoulder at Heidi.
Heidi was getting uncomfortable around Jessica now. She knew Jess was teasing her but she didn’t like it.
Forty minutes later it was all ready and Choi walked in. It was about 3:30 in the afternoon and the two were sitting at the table eating. Heidi looked visibly upset. Jessica has called her Alicia 4 times since they started eating.
Choi looked very satisfied and asked, “Hey Jessica can I have some. “
“Sure if you ask nicely. What do you think,” She looked over at Heidi and smiled. “Alicia.”
“Jessica, I thought we talked about this.” Choi said sharply. “He doesn’t like being called Alicia. Stop that, cant you see she is upset. What has gotten into you?”
“Haven’t you heard, She wants to continue transition? She wants to be called Heidi now. “
“Then lets call her Heidi and stop calling her Alicia. Jessica I must say I’m really disappointed with you. You are being a bitch now. “
they finished eating and Jessica looked upset but Heidi was sitting closer to choi and they were talking together.
“Choi, would you mind if I lived with you. Its just that I don’t feel comfortable with Jessica. “
“Sure that is Al right. I am sure Jess wont have any problems. She is ok but she gets in her teasing moods at time. “
Changing the subject, Choi said,” On another matter, I have wonderful news Heidi. Ron, Sandra, Katherine have been arrested. For some reason, Donna has fled and can’t be found. There is a court appearance this evening where they make their pleas. “

Authors note. For now on, I will use Heidi in my narration instead of Alicia. Sorry if there is any confusion.

From Alicia To Heidi
Jessica needs to respect Heidi. That Doctor does and Choi. But it seems as if WOMEN do not. I can see Heidi going into the Police Academy and defending other such children. No, Jessica and her teasing will only hurt Heidi until she stops being so stupid.

Umm...
How did that lady get into the police force when she is so incredibly insensitive. She needs to get educated, seriously ><
I know who I am, I am me, and I like me ^^

Doesn't surprise me in the
Doesn't surprise me in the least to see Jessica being insensitve toward Heidi. There are a lot of police officers, city, county, state and federal that are that way because they think it makes them so macho. Female officers can get caught up in the mind set because they want to fit in with the "boys" a lot of times. The biggest problem is when you get officers who become and are bullies behind badges. Knew several in my career and did have to take a few down a peg or two on occassions.
If Choi knows this about Jessica, he should really get her aside and straighten her out.

Jessica May Be Forced To Take Sensitivity Training
If Choi pushes it with Internal Affairs and reports her conduct,Jessica may be forced to go through sensitivity training. The thing I can't figure out is how she went from having compassion for Alicia/Allen/ Heidi at first and then turned to teasing? She knew that Heidi did not trust women after what she went through during her ordeal. How she could do the very thing that sparked mistrust just doesn't make sense. She certainly hasn't helped Heidi learn to trust women by doing what she is doing. I hope she gets the message somewhere along the line. I look forward to seeing how everything works out.

the answer is easy
inexperienced writer/author. when i started, I had a good character outline where she was really compassionate and kind hearted. Not that she isnt now but I got the idea this chapter to write a little teasing, into her personality. I thought it would add some color to the story. I didnt realize till it was already posted that this change would be to abrubt to explain. Now it looks like I will have to change some of the previos chapters too to explain this. Thats the reason lol.
But hard to take
Some of us identify with a character other than the main protagonist. This chapter was hard to understand, as in why Jessica was acting like this, the maliciousness of the "teasing" was hard to believe. If Jessica's character is going to be made mean, then I'm not sure I'll be able to continue.
As for Choi's actions, real life is not "The Shield". His actions might be understandable or even tempting, but no way, no how.
