By Portia Bennett
Introduction: The last two years at the Academy were over rather quickly, or at least it seemed they were. Matt's father swears him in, and Matt and Kate finally marry. They visit Musetta and Matt's grandfather on their way to San Antonio. As they are readying to leave Bakersfield, they are buzzed by a crop duster. Matt has an idea who the pilot is. After training in San Antonio, the young couple heads for Little Rock Air Force Base. Matt runs into Fred Bilitnikov who is starting C-130 training. It's always the same. Whenever they meet or correspond it's always "Where is Angelo?" "Have you heard anything lately from Angelo?" That's a very good question. Where exactly is Angelo?

My name was Julio, and I don't really know when it all began. I remember one time I was a little boy I had a dream that I'd turned into a girl somehow.
It's funny how wishes can turn out. Before it happened, I would never have wished it to happen. I wished for things like saving up enough money to start a business back home, or getting a green card.
A felt a sinking feeling inside, as I feared where this conversation was going.
"The way I see it, Stephanie is that either I suspend you from work and maybe even call the police or....," he paused to stare at my face, before moving his hands off the desk.

Betty Smith’s Transgender School
The court system has classified me as “Class 31”. Which means my mother has full control over me. I have been in courts many times -- I guess this is like throwing me in jail. The State will pay all costs to have me re-educated, they say. Not sure what that means.
My mother and I just left my doctor where the doctor gave me four shots. I was feeling very relaxed when my Mom told me of my new life because of the Court ruling me “Class 31”.
A son's duty to his father, given to him by God, is to marry and produce children so that his father's blood is carried on into the next generation.
A son's duty to his sisters, given to him by God, is to protect their virtue and to protect them from harm.
A son's duty to his hearth, given to him by God, is to stand at the threshold and guard it from the thieves and the brigands who would despoil his home.
And first, above all, a son's duty to God is to always walk with God in his heart and to teach his children to do the same.
In a time and place where his wrongness would lead to him being stoned or burned unto his death, Ezekiel found a way to fulfil all of his duties as given to be him by God, and yet still be true to himself.
This is the story of Ezekiel's Victory.
Caution: This story is set within a Puritan-like community. I take no responsibility for historical inaccuracies. There are frequent references to God and praying. This story contains references to sexual activity (see tags) – my descriptions of sex is generally minimalist – sometimes to the point of being Biblical. This is quite a dark piece in places and some may find aspects distressing. All I can say is that if you find it so, please keep in mind the title.

Book One - Part 7 (The Conclusion)
Chapter 31
Sometime after 4:00 a.m., I heard a soft tapping at my door. I rolled out of the bed and quietly shuffled across the room and pulled the door open. It was the bar maid who had spoken with me, "How serious were you when you said that you'd help me get the necklace?"
I opened the door and ushered her inside, then looked down both directions of the hall to make sure no one saw her enter. "Do you have an idea on how to get it from him?"
She smiled, "I've already started." I glanced at what she was wearing; the silky sleeping gown was very provocative and sexy. "I've finally agreed to allow him to train me in the finer aspects of my sex, so he's supposed to come to my room in half an hour. You can hide out there and bash him over the head once he enters."

WELL!
Despite my endeavours to wrap this story up in 30 chapters, it looks as though it might run to 31. otherwise chapter 30 woul have run to about 30 pages.
This chapter addresses the marriage of Beverly to Angie and other issues that need winding up in the story. (But not all.)
