Josh squinted as he saw a massive pair of navy blue boots approach him. Josh panicked as he fell over in some sticky residue in the candy wrapper before turning back in terror seeing the giant stop right before squashing him and the wrapper under the boot. Reaching down, Josh saw as a huge man came into view. Shielding his eyes, Josh saw as the view of a handsome face, with sunglasses covering his eyes, and a police officer's hat came close as he reached down and grabbed the candy wrapper.
"O'Brien, what are you doing?" Josh heard as a second man approached as he was being lifted up level to the giant cop's chest. Plainly across the man's bugling chest, Josh could see the name "Officer O'Brien". Josh looked up and down the giant's body. In a tight officer's uniform Josh could see that this massive police officer probably never skips a gym day. Josh looked at the second man talking to O'Brien. Slightly taller, and even more muscular, Josh looked at the tanned god of a police officer. Wearing a similar uniform to O'Brien, Josh saw his name tag as well "Officer Rodriguez". Also wearing sunglasses and a hat, but this man's face was covered in a dark black scuff. Josh saw the man chewing on a tooth pick as he walked closer to O'Brien.
"Why you always picking up garbage, man?" Rodriguez commented as he shoot his head looking at the wrapper his partner had picked up.
"You know I hate it when the kids litter around here." Josh heard the man say with a slight Irish accent. Josh felt the man moving as he started to move toward a garbage can. Panicking once again, Josh squirmed out of the wrapper and used his someone stickiness from the candy to lodge himself on the man's finger nail. Holding on tight, Josh watched as the wrapper he was just on was just tossed into a dark pit of a garbage can.
"Whew... that could have been me..." Josh held on, relieved he somehow avoided that terrible fate. Josh's relief was short lived as he found himself coming in close contact all a sudden with the giant's chest, being wiped off the giant's hand as slipping into a chest pocket.

O'Brien wiped his hand on his chest, unaware of the tiny life he had just saved and inadvertently slipped into his pocket.
"See, dude. You wouldn't get shit all over your hands if you would just let someone else deal with it." Rodriguez shook his head as he chewed on his tooth pick. "Seriously, Sean. It's gross."
"I told ya, it's fine Hector." Sean frowned at his partner. "It's such a beautiful city, I just hate to see rubbish all over the ground."
"Whatever, you do you, man. Let's just finish our patrol." Hector rolled his eyes from behind his sunglasses. Sean nodded his head as he went back to Hector's side as the walked down the board walk toward the beach more.
"What are ya in such a hurry for?" Sean smiled at Hector as the two stopped on a pier, watching a few people run by on the beach below. "Ya got a date or something?"
"Nah, I just wanted to see if I could get off work early. It's too nice out to be sweating our asses off in these uniforms." Hector tugged on his shirt a little trying to cool himself off.
"Ya don't think the chief will let us go early, will he?" Sean asked as the two continued their patrol. Hector shrugged as he spat on the ground as their made their way back to the patrol car.

Josh continued to sweat in the darkness of the giant's chest pocket. Able to hear their conversations, Josh felt fairly sped up on the situation he was in. "Sean O'Brien and Hector Rodriguez." Josh said to himself. "I'm in Sean's pocket. It sounds like they're going back to the police station. This could be good. Assuming they spot me, the police are bound to help me!"
Josh continued to ride in the pocket, eyes adjusting to the darkness as he continued to listen in to the conversation.
"This traffic is a load of shit, man." Josh heard Hector complaining, coming from Sean's left, seeming like he was the one driving. Suddenly Josh heard the sound of a police siren ring out from above the car, and the sound of the engine revving. Josh could feel the G-Forces push him against Sean's chest for a few minutes before the car came to a stop.
"You know the chief would have ya head if he knew you did that?" Josh heard Sean say to his partner as he heard the engine turn off.
"What you're not gonna tell him, are you?" Hector asked as Josh heard the keys jingle before Hector put them in his pocket.
"What? No! You're one of me mates." Sean answered back, feeling a bit taken aback. Josh could feel Sean's arm move before he heard the sound of what he assumed was the men fist bumping.
"Thanks, man. That's why you're my partner!" Hector answered as the two men got out of the car. Still riding along, Josh waited deep at the bottom of the giant's pocket awaiting the next piece of his adventure to unfold.

Sean and Hector made their way to the chief's office, trying to see if they can head out early. Turns out that the chief decides...
