     About three weeks after Enzo returned, this event took place. Hunty( Hunter=Hunty) was walking down the street late at night, alone. He had just walked past a street lamp when he thought he heard footsteps behind him, but when he looked there was no one, so he continued walking. Then out of nowhere, a man wearing a top hat ran up behind Hunty. The strange man put a cloth over his face, it had a sickly-sweet scent, then Hunty’s body fell limp. The stranger loaded the boy into the trunk of his car. He drove all the way to a hidden location, where he tied up Hunter to a support in the basement. The man introduced himself when the boy woke “ My name is Lenny T. Lizard, how do you do?” Hunty responded sarcastically “ Oh, I'm doing just great, it's not like I want drugged and tied up in some crazy person's basement!” Then he asked “Why the HELL am I here anyway?” Lenny responded “why to get revenge of course. To whom you may ask. To Your twisted family.” He continued “your family is rich, too. So I can get some cash out of it as well!” he started to talk again. “Oh goodness me, I forgot my manners.” He removed his hat and underneath was long curly hair on top of his head and long yellow hair ran down his back. The man sat down at a desk and started weighting something. Hunty angrily asked “What are you doing now!?” Lenny responded “I'm writing to your family, what else.”
The note started;

             Dearest Coachella family I have your son, and I can't say what will happen to him if you don't do what I say. What I will happen to him if you don't do what I tell you too. But I will kill him after a week. So give me $500,000 if you want him back. Each day I will hurt him either in the mind or body, so hurry.

With care
                        -Lenny T Lizard

       Then under the cover of darkness Lenny put the letter in their mail box along with a miniature top hat. Vulcan found the letter the next morning, he read the letter out loud, immediately Skyler collapsed onto the floor in a puddle of tears. Vulcan briskly called the police, and read the letter to them. It had been a day since they got the letter, so Lenny took a large knife and sliced the flesh of Hunty’s check the colour of crimson bubbled up on the wound. The day after he took Hunty to after private location, he was holding a gun to Hunty the cold barrel pressed against his back.

       Then his father Skyler arrived for the trade, but little did he Lenny know Vulcan was standing behind him with against gun, and the area was surrounded by the police. Lenny had no choice but to surrender. Once again the family took it to court Lenny will spend the rest of his life in prison behind bars. Just like the old lady with the pointed glasses. Hunty had been in the hospital for a week and then went to talk to a shrink, but know has a permanent scar across his left cheek. Once he returned home the family was together again. FOR NOW....

End.
