Arriving at the home that belonged to the Lalondes, our Striders (plus one Vantas and Makara) got out of their vehicle. Dave strode toward the entrance of the small, bunker-looking building, and began to knock their secret password. Four times, once, then thrice. A blond-haired female slowly opened the door. This was expected, considering both of the Lalondes were blond.

"Hello, David." she said, calmly. "Would you like to come in?"

"Yeah. Thanks, Rose." he turned to give a thumbs up to the rest of his travelling party and followed the one by the name of Rose through the large metal door. After the door closed, a loud voice was heard seemingly throughout the entire place.

"Yo, Rosey! Who is et? *It."

"Come here and see for yourself."

"Fine." The voice replied after a while. Another blond-haired female stumbled into the room, wearing a pink skirt and a white shirt with a pink cat on it.

"Oh. Hay, dirka dirk. I waz hopin it was Janey... She hasn't been back in awil an I'm kinda worried, ya know?" The new female smiled sadly.

"...Well that's...kinda what we're here to talk about. Your 'Janey' isn't Jane Crocker, right?" Dirk asked, quietly.

"Tha's the one! Did you guiz find er??" Roxy smiled hopefully.

"Well, yes. But probably not in the way you had been hoping for, I'm assuming." Dirk proceeded carefully.

"Wha do yoiu mean?"

Dirk began to explain what had happened and what Jane had explained, with some help and interruptions from the other three boys, purposefully leaving out who had stabbed her. Roxy sat down, nodding, taking all this upsetting information in.


And no one noticed Rose's guilty expression as the conversation continued.
