Chapter One

Enter James Clifton

James Paul Clifton was a young bachelor who lived in the Mayfair subdivision in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Philadelphia was also Clifton's place of birth. He was the chief engineer at a company called Ace Nuclear Supply and had recently been promoted to that position after having worked for the company for two years. But Clifton was currently only twenty-five years old. He had achieved a PhD in nuclear engineering by the age of twenty-three.

James Clifton was a white male. He stood six feet three inches tall and weighed about 290 pounds. He had a fairly good build and slightly darker skin than most white people. He also had black hair, which he always kept cut very short, and hazel eyes.

Clifton's appearance and personality helped him earn a great reputation. He always tried to do his best in personal hygiene. For instance, he always kept his teeth brushed, and kept himself clean-shaven. James also made it a point to have at least one bath or shower each and every day. Plus, whether at work or anywhere else, he made certain to be dressed nicely, neatly, and appropriately. In addition to all that, James was generally friendly, easygoing, and able to get along with anyone with whom he interacted. He undoubtedly felt that these things were important to the way others would perceive him as a chief engineer.

Perhaps James's greatest strength was his desire to do what was right. He usually forced it to override any other desires he may have had. Because of this, he currently had no criminal record and had never been to jail. Clifton had also never been the type to smoke, drink alcohol, or take illegal drugs. Occasionally, he did have to get tough with himself in order to do what was right. For instance, he may have occasionally felt tempted to get involved in gambling or prostitution but stubbornly refused to do so.

Although not perfect, James Clifton had a very good heart and conscience. He even tried to be fair to people he really did not like and sometimes gave a helping hand to those less fortunate. However, he was unwilling to become a complete pushover and sometimes tried to encourage others to do what was right. He also always showed politeness, courtesy, and respect to other people and that respect included their property. James Clifton was loved, respected, and truly appreciated by those who knew him well. Even though a few individuals hated him for doing the right thing, he still made certain that the desire to do so was stronger than any other desire of his.

He was born and raised two streets east of where he now lived. That was the home of his parents, Melburn and Diane Clifton. He was their only child. Melburn was a chemical engineer, and Diane was a high school geography teacher. Fortunately for James, they loved and treasured him so much that they wanted only the absolute best for him. So they always did what they could to make sure that he had a great life. As a result, he ended up having a great life indeed.

Even while they gave him the very best provisions and treatment that they could, his parents made sure to teach him to distinguish right from wrong. In turn, because of the lessons and discipline he received, James usually conducted himself in an excellent manner and seldom had to be punished. He had received much guidance in making good decisions. As a result of all that, young James was always very mature for his age. He even brought in lots of compliments from strangers on his behavior and manners. Before very long, he had come to understand and appreciate everything his mother and father had tried to get across to him.

In addition to teaching him how to make good decisions and behave himself, Melburn and Diane tried to encourage their only son to give his all and do his absolute best in everything he was trying to do. This included what he did for school, work, or any other activity in which he was involved.

One of these activities was getting through school. All the way from kindergarten to twelfth grade, James Clifton was always determined to do nothing short of outstanding schoolwork. In effect, he always made straight A's in all of his courses. Also, on two occasions, between kindergarten and eighth grade, James earned the privilege of skipping a grade. In the end, he graduated from high school when he was only sixteen years old.

Even though Clifton did excellent in all school subjects, the two he actually liked best were math and science. After all, they had the most to do with what he intended to do when he grew up. His father inspired him to find out more about different branches of engineering. So James wanted to become an engineer too. From grades eight to twelve, he was one year ahead of most other students in his math and science courses. The two sciences he enjoyed most were chemistry and physics. But he had already been through both of them by the time he became a high school senior. James had also been through all of his required math courses by his senior year, and during his senior year, he was enrolled in calculus.

High school graduation eventually came along for him. Though he was not the valedictorian, he was still one of the top three in his class with his grade point average. He was also the youngest graduating senior. Next, of course, the time came for James to proceed to college. He decided that he wanted to become a nuclear engineer. So, following his high school graduation, he enrolled at Pennsylvania State University, for he had received an academic scholarship there. He majored in nuclear engineering. He certainly had two proud parents because of his outstanding grade point average and his high school degree by age sixteen. Both parents, but especially his father, were very confident that their son could become whatever he wanted.

Although James got to attend Pennsylvania State by means of a scholarship, he opted to live at home with his parents. He felt that this would help him to focus on his studies a lot more. After all, just like through high school, he wanted to do nothing less than outstanding work. Fortunately, James also wound up making straight A's in college. Much like in high school, he was ahead in his math and science courses. This was due to advanced placement tests he had taken in the areas of calculus, chemistry, and physics, on which he had earned credit before beginning his first semester at Pennsylvania State. Then, while trying to achieve his bachelor's degree, James did so well in those areas that he made them look easy. He even helped other students who asked him for it. This advanced placement, along with the desire to get through college, enabled him to achieve a bachelor's...
