Cj smiled as I agreed to tell.
"The Cruella situation!" she said and I sighed.
"And I was right..." I muttered.
"Wait, did I miss something?" Harriette asked.
"When I stole Cruella's car... Remember?"
"Oh my goblins, yea! That was so funny!"
I groaned.
"No it wasn't. Especially not when..."

So Uma and I had this stealing bet. The one who would get the best catch, would win.
Uma stole Jafar's parrot and I knew that was hard to beat.
"You only have one hour left. I'm winning Hook." Uma said.
"No you're not."
"Then what are you gonna steal?"
I looked around and saw Cruella's red car.
"That." and I pointed to it.
"You're nuts."
"No, I'm winning." I said and I went to the car.
Stealing it was quiet easy, but getting away with it... Not so much.
Everyone knew that it was Cruella's car and well it was obvious that it was stolen since I definitely wasn't her.
So I had to ditch it somewhere.

Okay so things seemed fine and that I got away with it, I did lose the bet to Uma though since I didn't succeed stealing it.
"Okay, so what do yiu want since you won?" I asked.
"It's already in progress." Uma said.
"It is...?"
"I told Cruella."
"You. Did. Not!"
"Goodluck." Uma left and I was kinda freaking out.

So the next day I was freaking out in my room.
"I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead, I'm dead!" I kept saying.
My older sister grabbed me by my shoulders.
"Stop freaking out!"
"Cruella will kill me!"
"She won't. The worst she'd do is shaving your head."
"That's even worse!"
"Ughhh... You're an idiot!"
"I'm so dead..."
"Shut up. If she wanted to get back at you, she would've gotten to you by now."
Cj looked at me.
"Harry is in trouble!" he said with a smile and I sighed as I dropped myself on my bed.
"I'm so dead..."

Another few days passed but Cruella still didn't do anything.
I kinda thought she'd forgot about it.
Then her two minions Jasper and Horace, followed me and well they caught me.
"Got you, little scumbag!" Jasper said and I tried to get myself free, without luck.

They locked me up and it only took a minute before Cruella showed up.
"Well well well, you thought it would be fun to steal my car?" she said and I swallowed.
She blew the smoke of her cigarette in my face and I coughed.
"Weak. How not suprising."
"Like Carlos is any better."
Then she slapped me in the face.
"At least he is useful. You're not. You're a scumbag."
She stubbed out her cigarette on my arm and that was really painful.
"Ah! What the-?"
"Shut up. You're not going anywere anytime soon."
"Are you gonna kill me?"
"No. But you will regret that you took my car."
"Well you got it back by now...?"
"So? If I'd dhave your head, it woupd grow back. But you'd still be pissed. Hm... Maybe that's what I'll do!"
"You're gonna do what now?" And then I got scared.
"But first you can stay in that fear for now." and she just left.
"Hey, let me out of here!" I yelled but she obviously didn't.

I had no idea how much time went by but then Cruella and my dad came in.
"Dad?"
"Shut up." Cruella said and I swallowed.
My dad looked at Cruella.
"Release my son."
"Why?"
"Well you might to watch yours a bit better. If you want him to remain in one piece, you release my son."
"You have Carlos...?"
"Do you have another scared, 9 year old son?"
"Ugh... Fine. But first-"
"Now or your son will be getting a new scar."
"Fineee, release the Hook boy."
Jasper and Horace released me and my dad grabbed my arm.
"What about my son?" Cruella asked.
"He'll be set free as soon as we're home." my dad said and he glared at me with anger.

So I got grounded for failing. Not that I cared much, I wasn't dead or bald. So even though I lost to Uma and that I was grounded. I felt like I won... Except for that burn I got thanks to Cruella's cigarette...

"You were way too lucky!" Cj said.
"Oh shut up." I said.
"You know how scared Carlos was when I kidnapped him? It was so funny!" Harriette said and I looked at her.
"You kidnapped Carlos?"
Yea, after I did that, Cj kinda conviced dad to help you. But on her way." Harriette said and Cj smiled.
"For some reason puppy eyes worked on dad..." she said and I grinned.
"Unbelievable... You guys actually helped me out?"
"How many times do I need to repeat?" Harriette said.
"Zero! Because I'll say it. We have each others backs!!!" Cj said with a smile and Harriette threw a pillow at her.
"I bet Zevon would have your back too Cj." Harriette said teasingly.
"Hey!" Cj said and she threw that pillow back.
"Oh goblins how old are you?" I said and Harriette grinned.
"Alright, what are we talking about next?" she asked.
"Oh! I know something!" Cj said.
