Brandon sat on a rock, looking out over the ocean, the sun to his back. He had come to his quiet spot to contemplate and decide on a code name for himself. The first time he had found the place, it had been after a particularly hard rescue (that of Jeff and Elise). The area was untouched, the pristine sand undisturbed. He had stood looking out over the crystal blue ocean, letting the gentle sound of the waves relax him and taking in the scent of the tropical flowers. Afterwards, when he needed a place to think, he would always come to this, his special thinking spot.

Man I didn't realize it would be so hard to come with a code name. He mulled over several nicknames. Hotshot... No. Big shot... No way. Makes me sound conceited. After mentally going through the list, he closed his eyes shaking his head.

There's got to be something I can come up with. As he sat there thinking, a smile formed on his face. That's it!

Flashback

In the hangar, Aaron and Brandon stood side by side, folding their parachutes, neither one saying much. Finally Aaron broke the silence.

"Hey, Brandon thanks for saving my butt. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't been there."

"No problem, friend. We both made it down safely and that's all that matters." Brandon continued folding his parachute, making sure it was done properly.

"So, Big Mac, when do we go up again?"

Brandon turned, looking at Aaron, a look of surprise on his face. Only then did he see the cheeky grin on his young friend's face and his expression changed to one of pride.

Laughing and ruffling Aaron's hair he replied, "How about same time next week? It's late and I think we've both had enough excitement for one day."

End Flashback

Jeff had finished putting the latest code name entry into his PDA and was ready to leave the lounge when he heard a voice saying, "Excuse me, sir."

"Hello, Brandon, what can I do for you?" he asked, motioning him to enter.

"Well Mr. Tracy, I've given my code name a lot of serious thought and finally came up with one."

"And it is...? Jeff queried, reaching for his PDA.

"I've decided on Big Mac, sir."

"Interesting code name," Jeff remarked softly as he entered the name. After doing so he asked Brandon if he needed anything else.
"No sir, there isn't."

"In that case, if you'll excuse me, I have some things I need to discuss with my wife and she does not like to be kept waiting."

"Sure thing, Mr. Tracy; let me give you a hand." Brandon handed Jeff his crutches and together they left the lounge.
