//Hitch POV//

Yawn...

I woke up relieved to Sprout staring at me.

"Morning love..."

"Morning Hitch. How did you sleep?"

"Meh, I slept okay. What about you?"

"I slept great!"

"You want me to cook breakfast, don't you?"

"...."

"Don't you?"

"Yes..."

I laughed.

"What are you feeling like eating today?"

"I dunno, I'm kinda in a mood for eggs..."

"And bacon?"

"Ewwww nooo... I hate bacon."

"Okay lol, I'll make you something else then you baconhater."

"I am NOT a hater, just an unenjoyer of the partaking of bacon."

"I love you..."

"I love you too."

"Okay, we'll, I'm gonna go ahead and start breakfast. Get up and get ready. We have a lot to do today."

"Oh yeah..."

"Something wrong?"

"I'm not exactly looking forward to arresting my mom..."

"Well if it makes you feel any better, I don't plan on resorting to violence. I never do."

"Yeah, okay."

"I'll be in the kitchen, call if you need me."

"Alright."

//Phyllis POV//

Yawn...

Another day as mayor of my town.
They won't know what's coming. Those idiots may have managed to brainwash my dear boy but I'll fix him. I'll make him well again.

I get out of bed and go on my way towards the shed.

Why did I even get a shed so far away???

Oh yeah.

Can't have people finding my son while he's still... sick.

"Hey there!"

oh my god.

It's that stupid purple unicorn.

Sigh...

"Hello Mrs.Moonbow! Is there anything I may help you with?"

"Oh please, just call me Izzy! Only the IRS calls me Moonbow!"

"Well Izzy, I have some private business to attend to so if you'll excuse me..."

"You mean with your dingy old shed? Yeah the doors broke."

I look at her with a stare that could decapitate her hideous horn.

"WHAT!?"

I quickly ran to my shed and...

...

...

...he's gone.

"MOONBOW."

"Where is my son!?"

"Why would I know?"

"Because you told me you knew the door was broken!"

"Yeah... and?"

"AND YOU MUST'VE SEEN MY SON LEAVE."

"who's your son again?"

"SPROUT."

"Oooh. Why haven't you checked the farmers market?"

"why haven't I- OH MY GOD. HOW CAN YOU BE SO STUPID?!"

Izzy scoffed.

"Why I never! I'll be leaving now, I don't take kindly to weirdos like you insulting my intelligence!"

"BYE, LOSER! YOU COULDN'T HELP ME ANYWAY."

"Talk to the hoof, I'm out of here!"

I screamed in anger as I began pacing back and fourth, wondering about the possible whereabouts of my son.

Wait...

Could he be back with Hitch again?

I need to find him before-

"Turn around and put your hooves where we can see them."

I slowly turn around to see the sheriff and... my son.

"Oh! Hello dear! I'm so glad you found my son!"

Sprout looked at me in disgust and disbelief.

"Don't act like you don't know what you did."

"I'm not sure I know what you mean dear child."

Hitch intervened.

"Phyllis Cloverleaf, you're under arrest for the kidnapping of Sprout Cloverleaf. Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law."

"YOU'LL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE!!!!"

I ran off as far as I could, not knowing exactly where I was going.

//Sprout POV//

"WHERE DID SHE GO!?"

DEAR READERS: thank you for being patient while I was on break!
