It didn't take too long for the ambulances to reach the hospital, after navigating out of the wooded area. Both Pablo and Austin were taken to a nearby children's hospital, while Alex the pigman was rushed down to a random hospital a few miles away from the children's hospital. So as to keep him seperated from the other two children. Upon getting to the hospital, both Pablo and Austin were rushed out of the ambulance and taken to the emergency room to be patched up and bandaged, while a few FBI agents and detectives (including Detective Maria) fallowed them to gather evedence, photos, and a few rape kits as well. After a few hours of intense care, both young avian and kangaroo where weeled into one of the hospital rooms to recover. The dna evidence was sent over to the foresic labs, along with the rape kits, to be tested and used as evidence for the trial that was to come in the near future. Back at the cabin area, multiple forensic team members and agents from numerious county stations investigated the interior and the exterior of the cabin to look for any kind of evedence, to which they found enough. They found the hidden cameras, they found the dehydrated meat, and inside of main bedroom, they found various pictures of small children plastered around his wall, many of them with x's crossed in them, and a few with green circles around each face of each child, including the Backyardigans themselves.

"Holy shit.." One agent muttered under his breath

"I know...my god..what is that smell?" Another agent cried out, holding his nose tightly as to avoid the racid odor permuating up his nostrles.

The first agent that had muttered, called in a few other detectives to come into the room to indentify the smell coming from the inside of the room they were in. After looking around the room, they could find nothing rotting or even stagnate coming from any corner of the room. That's when a detective grabbed a crowbar from the back of one of the police vehicles and began hacking away at the chipped wooden floorboard where the smell itself was the strongest. The detective, after a few minutes of hacking and nearly vomiting, managed to make a decent sized hole in the floorboard. This caused a huge wave of death and rot to come smashing into the muzzles, and up the noses, of the fbi agents and detectives, causing most of them to run out of the cabin area and eaither gagging or vomiting profusely from the stentch. The few detectives that hadn't ran out of the cabin puking, held their button up shirts to their nostlrles and shined their flashlights into the large gaping hole. Bodies...Numerious bodies of children, some still rotting, others fresh, but most of them already skeletions at this point, piled on top of one another. Many of the bodies that hadn't fully decayed yet, we're almost unreconizable. The faces of every one of the still intaced children had been shaven off, leaving nothing but muscle and scar tissue visable. This was about as much as the detectives to take, as they wound up having to call a few people in hasmats suits to come and collect the bodies. It took almost an hour or two to finally clear the crevice of the hole of the bodies, some body bags being filled to the brim with bones of all sizes and shapes. All of which, were taken to the forenzic's lab to be indentified, and if possible to contact the family of said child for funeral arrangements. Once the place had been cleared up, the detectives entered back into the cabin and examined the now empty hole. There, right smack in the middle of the hole, were various ant beds scattered around the place, some still having ants living in them. That would explain the greater amount of bones rather than bodies that had been in the hole itself. Gathering the rest of the evedence that was needed, the cabin was locked shut, and police tape was wrapped all around the property.

Back at the hospital, Detective Maria was outside of the room that Pablo and Austin were residing in, waiting for her Captin to come and give word on what had been found at the cabin and the results of the rape kits as well. Almost as if right on que, Captian Ezekle was making his way down the hallway with a large manilla folder in his paw, his eyes fixed on the Detective.

"Detective Maria." Captian Ezekle called out

"Yes Captian." Maria answered

"Here are the results from the rape kit." Ezekle said as he handed over the folder to her

"Thank you Captian." Maria responded with a smile

"Your quiet welcome, honestly I don't have a whole lot of time to chat. I'm still needed at the station to help get everything settled for the court case and a whole bunch of other things as well." Ezekel said

"Thats fine Captian." Maria said

"One thing though." Ezekel said

"What is it?" Maria asked

"I'm going to have as ask you to interview both Austin and Pablo later on in the week. Their testimonies are nessissary for the case. Now, we already have Pablo's interview, so you don't need to ask him much, just the basics. However, your going to have to get the entire story from Austin's point of view, that way we have enought evidence to push this case further."

"Yes sir." Maria said with a salute

"Good, also Pablo's mother just came through the doors, I need you to interview her as soon as you can, and see if she has seen any sighn of the parents of the other children."

"What's wrong, are they missing as well?" Maria asked

"As far as I know, no. However, we need to be able to find and contact them and...break the news to them. I'm putting you in charge of doing this, oh and I also have a few officers that will be accompaning you, just in case it gets...bad."

"Thank you Captian, I'll get too it immediatly." Maria said

"Very good, Detective. Now, I must go. Contact me if there is any trouble okay?" Ezekle said

Maria nodded, and with that, Ezekele quickly made his way out of the hallway and out of sight. Once he was gone from sight, Maria turned to the folder in her paws, and opened it up to the first page, then to the next, and then to the next. Thankfully, for Pablo, his rape kid was clean, unfortunatly for Austin, that wasn't the case. His rape kit was postive, with almost the same results that Pablo had. According to the kit, Austin had been sodomised about six or seven times, judging by the rectal tearing and the amount of sperm, mostly dead, that was present in his rectum. The heavy amount of detail that was present on the file was enought to make the female detective wreach from the sight, and close the folder to keep herself from gagging. While it was a slight relife that Austin's rape kit hadn't been as damaging as Pablo's, it still wasn't anything to celebrate about. Maria carefully placed the folder under her arm, and took in a deep breath to try and keep herself clam. Then, turning around to the door, Maria opened it slightly and poked her head in to see both Austin and Pablo staring blankly at a wall, flipper and hand grasped tightly together, as if the world would end if it seperated for even a moment.

"Boys." Maria called out calmly

The two instantly broke their thousand mile stare, and glanced over at Maria.

"Oh..hey Detective Maria, whats up?" Pablo said quietly

"I'm going to be a few minutes you guys, I need to do a few things. Untill then, Pablo your mother is here, she'll be in here to help take care of two while I'm gone." Maria said in a soothing, motherly voice.

Pablo gave a weak smile, and then thanked her, to which Austin did the same. Closing the door softly, Maria began making her way down the hallway and into the main lobby area, where she was greeted by Pablo's mother sitting down in one of the seats, purse in hand.

"Elezebeth." Maria called out

"Oh thank god your here!" Pablo's mother sobbed as she embraced the detective, to which Maria hugged back

Elezebeth sobbed and moaned, both in joy and regret, thankful that her little boy was still alive, as well as Austin too, yet full of guilt for letting that monster take her child away from her for the second time.

"Th...thank you fo...for saving my baby!" Elezebeth sobbed

"Your very welcome Elezebeth." Maria said

After a few minutes of sobbing, Elezebeth calmed herself down, wiped her eyes, and then took a step back.

"Elezebeth, I need to ask you a few questions." Maria said sitting down on one of the many chairs

"Any dear, I'd be honored to help you out in any way possible." Elezebeth said, blowing her nose

"Thank you. Now, I must ask, have you had any contact with the parents of the other children at any time during this investigation?"

"Acutally yes, it was during the interview that you had with Pablo a few days back." Maria began " We had all gathered in one of the rooms, practically dripping with sweat and fear at what had happened to our children. The room itself was filled with nothing but tense feelings, with a few sniffles here and there. I honestly couldn't stay in that room any longer, or I would've lost my mind. So I got out of there and made my way towards the room, where you came out and allowed me to speak with Pablo. Well, to make a long story short, Pablo wound up telling me what had happened...well not everything, just what had happened to him and his friends. Once you came back to talk with him...I just went back into the...room where everyone was at. When they all saw my face, they knew what had happed to their children. Everyone in the room began breaking down instantly, with one exception. Austin's parents just stood there, shaking like a leaf in autum. I remeber looking up at them, and I could see it in their eyes, that their souls were shattered into a million little peices, and that all hope that they had left in them was gone. Then, as soon as it had started, Austin's parents both solemly walked out of the door while we all wept. Then, one by one, everyone left the room and went home."

"Do you know where they're at now?" Maria asked

"Tyrone's, Tasha's, and Uniqua's parents are currently setting up funeral arrangements for their children at, what was the name? 's Methodist Church a few miles away from where we live at. You'll most likely find them there. However, I haven't seen or heard from Austin's parents for the last few days or so. They might still be at their home, but that's all I can think of." Elezebeth admitted

"Thank you Elezebeth, I'll have a couple of officers go and speak with the others about the current situation at hand. I and a few more officers, will go an check up on Austin's parents, they should be relived that their son is still alive. Oh and one more thing, what are the names of Austin's parents?" Maria asked

"Their names are David and Macy." Elezebeth responded

"Thank you again. I'll go and check up on them. As of right now, both Pablo and Austin are in room 324. I'm sure that Pablo would love to see you right now." Maria said

"Thank you." Elezebeth said, before walking out of the lobby and down the hall were the young boys resided.

Maria called over a few police officers that where standing near the enterence of the hospital, to which they walked over to her.

"Get the police car ready, I need you both to take me to Austin's home. I have the address saved to my phone, so you won't need to worry about getting lost. I'll be out to meet you both in about five minutes, there is something that I need to do first." Maria said firmly

The two officers nodded and made their way out of the doors of the hospital and got into their police car. Maria then took out her walkie talkie and called up a few other officers to go and check on the other parents at the local Methodist church, providing them with the address and zip code of the area. Once she was finished, she walked out of the door of the hospital, and hopped into the police car. Within minutes, they were on the road.

Thirty minutes passed, and after a few rough turns and some detours, the officers and detective finally made their way to the one story purple fenced home of Austin. Detective Maria was the first person to exit out of the vehicle, the other two officers both quickly fallowing suit.

"Alright you two." Maria began "Keep the questions to a minimum, keep yourself armed at all times, and more importantly be polite."

The two officers nodded in agreement, and soon made their way towards the front door of the home. Maria stepped a bit closer to the door and knocked on it a few times.

" David...Macy..this is the police." Maria called out

Silence. Maria waited for about a minute longer, and then proceeded to knock on the door again.

"Please open the door, this is about your son Austin." Maria called out once more

Still nothing.

"Are you sure that there even home?" One of the officers asked

Maria gave a blank look, and then proceeded to point to the large black car that was sitting in the middle of the driveway.

"Oh.." The officer said, his face turning a light shade of red from emberrasment.

"Something isn't right." Maria said as she went and took a look at the front window near the front door.

"Look Maria, it's obvious that they arn't going to answer the door, and unless we have a warrent..there's really nothing we can do." one of the officers replied

Maria barely even agnolaged what had been said to her, as she was staring intently at the window, trying hard to see through the curtains. The only thing that she could somewhat make out were the faint outlines of various furnature and other appliences, but that was it. Everything else was shrounded in darkness. A heavy feeling, like a brick in a sack immediatly hit Maria hard. She knew that there was something wrong, and that she needed to find out what. However, she knew for an absolute fact that she couldn't just barg into the home without a legal reason to do such.

"I want the both of you to go and search the outside of the house for any traces of Austin's parents. Check every door, window, everthing, and report back to me if you see anything suspicous. If we can't find anything, then we will leave and come back the next day." Maria ordered

The two officers immediatly obeyed the order given to them by the detective, and began scouting the area, flashlights in hand. Once police officer decided to check the fenced backyard of the home, and began searching around. Upon making his way to one of the back windows, he spotted something that was honestly hard to miss. Blood, a heavy splatter of it coated the window and drapes from, nearly turning the orange colored drapes into a deep crimson red color. Not wanting to waste time, the officer immediatly began ran back towards the front door, where Detective Maria was searching.

"Detective, we've got a problem." the officer said

"What is it?" Maria asked

"I saw blood, a lot of it on one of the windows, it looked fresh." the officer said

"Say no more." Maria demanded "Call the other officer and have him meet us at the front door, and call a bus too."

"Yes Detective." The officer said, pulling out his walkie talke and calling up the ambulance, as well the other officer.

Within a few minutes, the other officer arrived at the front door, and with one swift kick, broke open the door. The room was dark, not a single ray of sunlight, with the exception of the of the broken door, illuminated the room. However, a large figure could be seen dandgling from the celing fan. Turning on the lights to the house, they all saw what was dangling, or rather who was hanging from that ceiling fan. There, only a few feet away from them, was Austin's mother hanging from a makeshift noose made from various electrical cords and wires. She was clothed in a long blue dress with black flowers drapped all around it. Her long frizzled black hair drapped over her face, which desplayed an expression of hopelessness and depression. Pinned on the bosom of her dress was a small note that read

"The explination you desire, is in the kitchen"

"Oh my god." Maria muttered under her breath, her mind still in shock at what was in front of her.

Taking a large knife out of her belt, she carfully cut the wires with one single stroke, carefully holding the body as to make sure that it didn't fall to the ground. With some assistance from the other cops, they layed the lifeless and stiff body onto the couch. Once that had been finished, Maria took in a deep breath of air, but soon started gagging. It was very faint, but there was a scent of something rotten and decaying coming from some part of the house. Without hesitation, all three officers began to slowly inch their way down one of the halls, the stench itself growing stronger and stronger with each passing moment. Signaling that they were close to the source of the scent. Finally, they reached a door that was at the very end of the hallway, and began turning the nob carefully. Then, as they opened the door to the room, a title wave of rot punched them all in the face, and hard. Everyone soon began to gag, and even one officer ran off into a bathroom and vomited into the toilet. Maria just covered her face with a hankercheif and shined her flashlight into the room. The room itself wasn't very big to begin with, it looked more like a simple office building than anything. However, the walls and furnature of the room was covered in giant splots of crimson red blood, small bits of flesh and bone sticking to the blood soaked wall like a macob art peice. Shining the light a bit more the the right of the room, revealed Austin's father, a double barrle shotgun resting on his blood soaked chest and collared plad shirt. His head, at least the top part of it, was gone. Only being replaced with a heavy spatter of blood, brain matter, chunks of flesh, teeth, and an eyeball covering the wall and window behind him. His bottom jaw and below being the only things left intact. Flies, maggots, and other insects crawled in and out of the destroyed head. Maria closed her eyes and stepped forward to the dead body, trying not to expell what little food she had consumed throughout the day. She then opened her eyes, and found a note pinned to the body, that wasn't saturated with blood and meat. Also, in one of the hands, was a small family portrate of Austin, his father, and his mother all standing in front of the house with big smiles on their faces. She grabbed the note, and opened it up. Written on it was the same message that was found on Austin's mother's body as well, however this message seemed to be rushed and almost illegible:

"The Explination You Desire, Is In The Kitchen"

Maria placed the note into her pocket and walked out of the room as quickly as possible. One she got back to the living room, she could already hear the sound of the ambulances driving down the street. She knew for a fact that it wouldn't be long before they arrived, so she quickly went into the kitchen, and found a small stack of papers on top of the kitchen table.

"This must be the explination that was on the notes...oh dear God how am I going to tell Austin this?" Maria muttered under her breath.

Just as she was about to place the papers down on the surface of the table, the ambulance that she thought was coming down for them, just continued driving down the road. It must have been another ambulace that had been called for another emergency. Maria just sighed, and sat down in an empty chair next to the stack of papers on the table. Without much thought she carefully grabbed the papers and began reading it. It was Austin's Parents suicide note.

"To whom it may concern,

I don't really have much to say, and neither does my husband David..In fact, as I'm currently writing this note, he's already prepping the shotgun for himself. I would've had him sit down with me and write out a few words that he may have wanted to say, but he's already too weak to even say anything. He only wants to be done and over with this so that he, or we for that matter, can be with our little angle again in heaven. Now, I know what you all are thinking, and we already know what it is. "Our lives mean so much, taking them would only keep us from enjoying the rest of our lives, yadda yadda yadda..Well, I hate to break it to everyone, but that's not what we want at all. No...not one bit! This may be a bit confusing for some of you, so I'll just shut up and explain.

Me nor my husband have ever told this to anyone, due to the heavy amount of shame that it would've brought us...but I guess that doesn't really matter that much right now anyway. My husband and I had gotten married at a very early age, 15 and 16 respectively. It wasn't really because we loved each other, at least not at first, it was more because of the fact that we were very rebellious teens. We only got married because we wanted to be officially emancipated from our parents, which we got rather easily. For the next five and a half years we did the most depraved things; we got drunk daily, we used a heavy amount of drugs (often times mixed with alcohol so that we could get a bigger hit), plus we often involved ourselves in numerious sexual parties where we would have sex with multiple men and women at clubs, bars, wherever the heck we wanted to go to. We almost O.D about three or four times during that period of five years becasue of the heavy drug use we were involved in. Now, I never really worried too much about getting pregnate myself, because I had a some kind of rare condition where I was barren at birth or something like that. In a nutshell, it just means that I can't have kids, which was a good thing for me and my husband at the time, because that would just mean our fun would be taken away from us. I know, I know...it was disgustingly selfish for the both of us to even so much as think that way, but we did...Now, despite my barreness, my husband always made sure to get me some "The Morning After" pills to take after a night of...sex and drugs... Years passed, and we continued to wreak our lives up in many different ways. Five whole years passed, and it was at this point where we were both broke, hungry, living in a crappy motel room just to have a roof over our heads. All the money that we earned, or in this case taken, from having the repeat parties almost always went to buying lsd and other hallucinigetics. Then, after taking a few hits of lsd both my husband and I just went at it. The next few days went by without anything abnormal happening, untill at the fifth or sixth day I started to get morning sickness. I just chalked it up as my body getting sick again from the drugs, but after a few more days, the sickness didn't go away. This worried me, and then I had remembered that I had forgotten to take the morning after pill that my husband had given me. So, I ran into the bathroom and was about to take a few of the pills...when something happened. I...I just couldn't take the pill. It was as if someone was holding me back, trying to prevent me from taking it. The next thing I know, I'm dumping all of the pills down into the toilet, and once the last pill was out of the bottle, I flushed the toilet. The next few days went by with the same plights of morning sickness, which I knew wasn't from the drugs. So one afternoon I went to the dollar store and bought a few things for my stomach, and as I was about to leave, I found a few pregnacy test. Now, I...I don't know why I even bought them, but for some reason I just...just wanted to make sure. When I got back to the motel room, I took a few asprins and decided to test the pregnacy test...and...I...it was positive. I used at least six more pregnacy test on myself, and every one of them came out positive. I told my husband David, and he was overjoyed! It was at that moment, that we decidied to pick ourselves up and better our lives. We both enrolled ourselves into rehab and went on a few detox while we were both there. We spent about three months in there at a halfway house, slowly but surely getting better and better. And everytime eaither of us wanted to quit and give up, our little angle would kick in my stomach, as if to remind us why we were there to begin with. Then came the day that our little saint was to be born. Now, the only thing that the two of us where worried about, was if the drugs and alcohol that I taken all thoes years would effect the baby, we didn't know if the baby was going to mentaly or physically handicaped because of it. But thank the good Lord above, we were wrong. When Austin came out of my womb for the first time, he was perfect in every way! The doctors themselves were even puzzled at the fact that our baby was as healthy as he was, but the facts themselves showed them the proof. Austin was of a normal, albeit a bit chuncky, weight, he was tested and clean of all substances, and as a bonus he didn't even cry when he came out for the first time. He took one look at us and smiled. Needless to say, both my husband and I where bawling our eyes out when we held Austin for the first time. Life after that just continued to get better and better for all of us. My husband managed to land a high paying job, we both were clean of all drugs and alcohol, and we even bought this house for our us to live in. None of this would have been possible if it wasn't for our little angle, or heavenly saint...Austin. He was never a problem when he was an infant, he rarely cried, always smiled, and was very smart. Heck he said his first word when he was only one years old, and when he turned four he started kindgergarden...normally kids don't start kindergarden untill they turn six! We later found out, after the school gave him a test of some sort, that he was a prodigy. Oh...when we found out we just cried our eyes out with joy! We didn't deserve Austin in anyway shape or form, becuase of how disgusting we were...but he was our blessing sent from heaven above. When he started hanging out with the other kids, he was definanty shy at first, but soon he was outside almost every day untill school started. We have many memories that we charish and love, sadly...we'll never get to experience any of these things again. You all must understand that we tried to work it out after...we found out that Austin was gone, but...we just can't. And the last thing that we want is for our little Angel to look down at us in Heaven and be dissapointed at the way we're living. Austin was our glue that held both me and my husband up, he was the reason why we both bettered our lives, but most importantly we've learned more from him than he's learned from us...We're sorry if this hurts anyone, but understand me when I say that we're better off dead than alive. I know for a full on fact that we'll just go back to using drugs again...and we're not going to let that happen. Austin sweeite, we're coming home. You won't be alone for any longer in Heaven. Mommy and Daddy are coming home, and we'll be one big happy family again. We Love you sweetie!

Tears poured down Maria's face as she read the last sentance that was on the suicide letter, her mind going into various directions. She was soon taken out of trance, when an ambulance worker and coriner tapped her on the shoulder.

"Detective Maria" The coroner, a gray female bear said

Maria jumped a bit, gripping tightly onto the suicide notes in her paws.

"Oh my go..sorry. My mind just.." Maria said, trying to form a proper explination

"It's fine." The coroner said "I just need you to take me to the other body, if you please. My assisstant over there is already handling the other body. Oh, and here your going to need this." The coroner said as she handed Maria a small mask to block out the smell.

"Oh, alright then, thank you." Maria said leading the coroner to the back room where the almost headless father of the young kangaroo rested, the flies and the maggots still feasting,undisturbed.

The door was opened up, and the smell of rotten meat and death seemed even stronger the second time around. However, this didn't seem to bother the coroner at all, in fact she barely even flinched.

"After breathing in the smell of death and decay for nearly ten years of my life, you get used to the smell real quickly." The coroner said with a smile, albeit a goofy one, which wasn't very appropriate given the current situation at hand.

Maria held the mask closer to her face, as she struggled to keep herself from gagging violently, not just from the smell, but from the heavy amount of gore splattered all around the place.

"How long has he been dead for?" Maria questioned, her eyes still locked onto the corpse just a few feet away from her.

"Judging by the state of decomposition he's in, i'd say about two or three days at most." The coroner said examing the body

'Cause of death?" Maria asked

The cornor turned towards Maria with a look that said "Seriously?" Maria just bit her lip, realising the stupidity of her question.

"Well, it's kinda obvious isn't it?" The coroner said, rather matter of factly " But if you must know, shotgun blast from mouth through the head. Judging by the mess, I'd even say the shotgun itself was a a double barrel shotgun."

"Okay, so um..What about the..." Just as Maria was about to ask her question, her cellphone began ringing, or in this case vibrating.

"Excuse me for one sec." Maria said walking out of the door, and answering her cell phone

"Hello." Maria asked

"What the hell is going on?" Ezekele yelled "I just got a phone call from one of the officers I sent you with, telling me that he saw blood all over the window of the house!? Is everyone there alright?"

Maria let out a soft sigh, unsure of herself of how in the world she was going to break the news to her captian.

"Well...um...they're..they're dead." Maria stuttered

"What." Ezekele said shocked

"We found both Austin's mother and father dead. They both killed themselves..." Maria said trying not to choke.

There was a long, deafening silence, before Ezekel spoke.

"How did they die?" Ezekele said flatly

"Macy hung herself and David shot himself with a shotgun." Maria said

"I see...did they leave a note?"

"Yes...a long one." Maria said

"Okay, here is what I need you to do now Maria. I need you to go back to the hospital and interview Austin, get his side of the story about what happend at the cabin. We've also have enough evidence to arrest Alex for what he did to those kids as well. As for the...mess. I'm already sure that there are plenty of people there to finish up with the other things. Oh and one more thing." Ezekele said

"Yes Captian." Maria said

"Don't tell Austin what happened here...not now. He's already going through enough shit as it is, with his injuries and everything..Just don't tell him untill he's ready."

"Yes sir." Maria said

"Okay, good. Goodbye." Ezekele said before hanging up

Putting the phone back into her pocket, Maria made her way outside of the house and got back into the police car, but not before telling the officers that came with her that she was going back to the hospital. Once she got to the hospital, she made her way into the lobby area, and was met by Pablo's mother.

"Oh good, your back." Elezebeth said " So how did the interview go?"

Maria bit her lip, and stepped back at bit.

"What's wrong?" Elezebeth asked concered

"Is there a private place that we can talk at?" Maria asked

"Uh sure, there's a chapel here that we can go to if you want." Elezebeth said as she pointed out the large chapel door near the lobby area.

"Good, lets go." Maria said as she and Elezebeth walked over towards the chapel area.

Maria was the first one to walk into the chapel area, the flickering candles, votive lights, and painted icons filled the area with a peaceful, yet ominous, feeling. Checking to make sure that the area was empty, both Maria and Elezebeth both took a seat in one of the pews near the icons in the front of the chapel.

"You asked me earlier about how the interview with Austin's parents, unfortunatly I wasn't able to contact them." Maria began

"Why is that? Wern't they home?" The female avian asked

"No..you see we wound up having to bust into the home after we had found some rather disconcerning things on one of the windows. However, once we busted in, we found Austin's mother hanging from the ceiling."

Elezebeth's eyes and beak widened in shock at the very words that were coming from Maria's mouth, however that wasn't all of it.

"We also found Austin's father in the back room of the house. I won't go into any gory details with you, but to put it bluntly...He shot himself in the head."

"Oh my God!" Elezebeth yelled in a state of shock and saddness

"How long were they.." Elezebeth asked

"Two days." Maria said flatly

"Why...oh my gosh..Austin is going to be devistated!" Elezebeth said

"I know, however I'm going ask you to not mention his parents suicide...at least not right now. He's already going through the aftermath of that horrible tragity at the cabin with Alex." Maria said firmly

Elezebeth nodded her head, agreeing to keep her beak shut for the time being. The female avian then proceeded to grab a hankerchief from her purse and wipe the tears from her eyes. She had know Austin and his family for a long, long time. In fact she even considered Austin and the others her family as well, not by bloodline of course, but just getting to know and grow with them too.

"What's going to happen to Austin, now that his parents are...dead." Elezebeth asked as she held back a sob

"Normally I would say foster care, but honestly I don't trust those places in any shape or form. Too many young children being sent off to random people that they don't even know. So, I have another solution to this situation." Maria said

"What is it?" Elezebeth asked

" In order to keep him out of the foster care system, I need you to adopt Austin. It'll require a few things, but I'm sure that it shouldn't be any issue." Maria said

"Yes...I will, i'll adopt him." Elezebeth said blowing her nose.

"Thank you Elezebeth." Maria said with a small smile

"Now, I need to go and interview Austin, get his side of the story." Maria said getting up from the pew. "I might also have to inteview Pablo as well, so in the mean time, go on ahead and set up the adoption process."

"I'll get too it immediatly." Elezebeth said

And with that, Elezebeth made her way out of the chapel door. Maria, on the other hand, just stayed where she was, still trying to ready herself for what was to come. She knew for a fact that she'd have to break the news to Austin sooner or later, and she knew that it was going to hurt him in ways that not even she would know. One thing that she did, before leaving the chapel, was make a mental note in her head to put Austin on a suicide watch if she even had the slightest feeling that he was going to harm himself. Upon reaching the door of the chapel, she dipped her fingers in a little holy water font and blessed herself, she was going to need as much strength as she could get.

A few miles away from the children's hosptial, was the hospital where the pig man, aka Alex, was currently staying at. He was, at the moment, completely unconcious. He had been that way for the past few hours after surgury, which took some time to complete due to the fact that the bullet had been lodged deep into Alex's spine. However, despite all that, the doctors were succesful in getting it out and ultemently preventing Alex's death. Despite all that however, he certianly wasn't getting out of it scott free. While the surgery was successful, Alex was permantly paralized from the waste down. He would never be able to walk again, which may have been a bit of karma coming to bite him in the ass for all the shit he'd done, but of course, there was much more to come. As Alex was resting in his hospital bed, the cheif of police, Ezekel, was coming to pay that fat fuck a little visit, and have him arrested right on the spot. Upon getting an arrest warrent from the judge, Ezekele and a few other detectives where already making their way towards the hosptial. It didn't take too long, as the ride was about a mile or so away from the children's hospital. Upon arrival, Ezekel and the other detectives got out of their squad car and made their way into the hospital. Having shown the warrent for Alex's arrest, one nurse guided them towards the room that he was staying in.

"This is it. Room 54." The female nurse said

"Good." Ezekele said, with a long sly grin on his face

The nurse then left the corridor, and the officers opened up the door to the room. There they saw his unconcious body lying there on the bed, with an iv sticking out of his fat greasy arm. Ezekele wanted nothing else more than to wait for this asshole to wake up, so that he could slip those handcuffs onto the fat pig's wrist, and tightly too. In fact, he wanted to make sure that he made Alex's life a living hell, at least as legaly as he was able to. He dreamed of nothing more than stuffing that disgusting lard ass into the deepest darkest cell that could find, feeding him only bread and water for every meal, and, if lucky, maybe get to beat the shit of this guy a few times. Yeah, he was a bit of a sadist at times, but could you blame him? Right there in front of him was a mass pedophile, rapist, cannibal peice of dog shit. If anything, he would've already blown the brains out that bastard if he could, but he knew better. He was going to make sure that both Pablo and Austin, their friends, as well as the countless children that had been found in that cabin got the justice they deserved. And if that meant keeping this fucker alive for a little longer, so be it. Ezekle just took a seat near one the bed, anticiapting the moment when Alex would wake up. He wanted to be the first thing that the bastard saw when he woke up. They waited for some time. Seconds became minutes, minutes became hours, hours turned into nothingness. Not a single sound or even a grunt came out of Alex's dirty mouth. This was a bit disconcerning to the police cheif, as he was afraid that Alex was in a coma of some sort, which would only delay justice even longer than it should've been. Then, after waiting for at least three hours, Alex moaned and shook his head softly. Ezekele stood up from the chair, and leaned in close to the pig's face, a sadistic smile streatching from corner to corner on his face. Soon, the pig's eyes began to flutter open, and then both his eyes immediatly shot open.

"W...what the fuck are you doing here?" Alex spat, as he stared intently at the sadistic smile on the captian's face.

"Well it's certianly not to give you a bouqe of flowers and a "get well soon" balloon that's for sure." Ezekele snapped

Alex just glared at the officer in front of him

"I don't need your sarcastic bullshit!" Alex hissed "Just wait untill I get my hands on those little fu..." Alex stopped dead in his tracks.

He began struggling, attempting to move his legs in one way or another, however they remained as limp as a wet noodle. He soon began to panic.

"Wh...what the fuck!" Alex screamed "Why the fuck can't I move my legs!"

Ezekele giggled at bit at the plight the pig was going through, but that was just the icing on top of the cake.

"The bullet that hit you, it jammed itself deep in your spine thus damaging your nervous system in the process. To put it bluntly, your paralized from the waste down, permanently." Ezekele said, with hint of glee in his voice

"I swear to god, I'm going to ring that little kangaroo's neck when I find him!" Alex roared with rage

"No your not. In fact, before I forget."

Captian Ezekele then proceeded to grab his handcuffs from his belt and swing them around like a toy.

"Alex J. Bern, you are under arrest for murder in the first degree, kidnapping, endangering the welfare of a child, cannibalism, rape of a minor, sexual assault on a minor, child pronography, theft, posioning, and many many more charges as well."

With that said, Ezekele grabbed the wrist of the now frozen pig man, and cuffed him to his bedside.

"You have the right to remain silent. Anything that you say or do, can and will be held against you in the court of law, you have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, then one will be provided to you. Do you understand the rights that I have described to you?"

As a responce, Alex spat in the officer's face, the slimy spit going down the cheif's face at a slow rate. However this didn't even soften the sadistic smile that was still on Ezekele's face.

"I'll take that as a yes. Oh, and I'm also arresting you for attempted murder as well. Seeing as you have a multitue of STD's and AIDS as well.." Ezekele sneered

Alex just staired at the cheif, as he tightened the cuffs around the fat pig's wrist. The only thing that was going through his mind at the time was how much he wanted to make thoese kids suffer at his hands. He made sure of it that if he was going down, he would certianly bring those two brats down with him.

Back at the Children's hospital, Maria had taken some time making sure of it that Pablo and Austin were as comfortable as possible. She originaly was planning on interviewing them that very day, but seeing as how the two of them had to be subjected to multiple test, shots, and other medical proceadures for the case. She ultimently decided to do it on another day, which wasn't really a problem for her, because Ezekele had told her to interview the two before the end of the week. So, she decided to just relax with the two for the whole day. Which she needed as much as ever, mostly because of the insane shit that she had seen throughout the day. The day itself went by without any kind of issues; they played games together, watched a few movies on the hospital television, and pretty much had dinner to wrap the rest of the day up.

"Thanks for hanging out with us!" Austin said yawning

"Yeah, it was great." Pablo chimed in

"You two are quiet welcome, it was fun being with you two. Now you guys go on ahead and get some sleep. We've got a busy day tommorow morning." Maria said softly, as she walked towards the door and opened it.

"Goonight Detective Maria." Austin said

"If you see my mom, tell her I said goonight to her." Pablo said

"I'll make sure of it." Maria said with a smile

"Oh, and if you see my parents too, let them know that I love them too!" Austin said

Maria stopped dead in her tracks, her smile fading for a bit, before returning. She looked over at Austin, a sad look on her face, and nodded her head. Austin gave a big smile, and then curled up in the covers of his hospital bed, and fell asleep. Closing the door ever so gently, Maria slowly walked down the hospital hallways, her face plastered with saddness. She knew that tommorow had to be the day that she would break the news to Austin, and if anything it wasn't going to be good.

The very next day, Maria had woken up earlier than she usualy did : She got up, got dressed, cleaned herself up, made herself some coffee, and was out the door. She then drove herself down towards the children's hospital, the only thing playing in her head where the words that Austin has said before she left yesterday night. "Tell my parents that I love them too!" Over and over did that phrase play in her head like a broken record. Upon reaching the hospital building, she grabbed the files, notes, and the voice recorder that were sitting in the passinger seat of the car and got out of the car. There she made her way into the hospital and walked towards the hospital room of Pablo and Austin, and knocked gently.

"Come in." Austin's voice called out

Maria's heart sunk to the bottom of her stomach, but she quickly took a few breaths and put on a smile. Opening the door slowly, she poked her head into the room, to see Austin relaxing in his bed, with the television remote clicking away in his hand. Maria looked to where Pablo should have been at, but he and his bed was absent from the room.

"Um Austin sweetie, where's Pablo at?" Maria asked as she walked into the room, closing the door behind her.

"It...it was a bad night for Pablo." Austin said, his ears drooping a bit.

"How is that sweetie?" Maria asked concerned

"He kept waking up in the middle of the night screaming...He..just couldn't stop screaming. I managed to calm him down the first two times, but...the third was the worst out of all of them. He started yelling, crying, and screaming like a madman...he even started trying to hurt himself. All the while he just kept on screaming "Let me go, let me go." The doctors wound up rushing in the room and having to sedate him for a bit. Then, for my safety, they wheeled Pablo into a seperate room to rest and recover. As of now, he's having some test run on him by the doctors." Austin said timidly

"I can understand." Maria said

"Yeah, if anything...I'm suprised that I haven't starting loosing it I was in that cabin longer than he was, and I'm younger than he is." Austin said pointing to himself

"Well, if anything Austin, it's a blessing that you have." Maria said with a smile

"True...True."Austin said

" Speaking of the cabin, Austin. I need to interview you on what happened while you where there at the cabin, your testemony is going to be a huge help for us when the trial begins." Maria said grabbing a chair and sitting down upon it.

"Anything to get that pig monster locked up forever." Austin growled

Maria nodded in agreement, and then began setting up the voice recorder. Once that was done, she then placed the device next to Austin's bed so that everything could be heard.

"Okay Austin, everything is ready. However my question to you is, are you?" Maria asked

"Yes mam, I'm ready." Austin said calmly

"Good. Now, the first thing that I need of you, is to tell me what happened when you where first in the cabin." Maria said

Austin gritted his teeth, and swallowed the lump that was forming in his throat. He took a few deep breaths, and spoke.

"When I woke up for the first time in that cabin, I had no idea what was going on. I couldn't see or hear anything, and it was very hard for me to breath. I also couldn't move my arms eaither, in fact they we're both chained together. My entire body was suspended in midair, due to the fact that I couldn't feel the ground beneath my feet." Austin began

"During that time, did feel any kind of pain in your arms?" Maria asked as she jotted down a few notes

"I guess I was hanging there for a long time, because I couldn't even feel my arms after I woke up. The only thing that I could feel, where the chains around my wrist." Austin said

"I see. What happened once the bag was lifted off your head?" Maria asked

"I...I saw..blood...blood everywhere." Austin gagged "I remember turning to Tasaha, and seeing her lower jaw was gone. Then I turned to Uniqua, and...her face was melted like grilled cheese."

As the memories of the events continued to fill the young kangaroo's head, Austin began upchucking like crazy. Maria knew for a fact what was to come, so she quickly handed Austin a trash can and had him vomit in it. A few moments of upchucking, Austin placed the bile filled trashcan down on the floor and continued with his account.

"Sorry about that...anyway..After seeing all of that gore, the pigman snapped me out of my trance by placing a knife near my throat. I was afraid that he was going to cut me, untill Pablo screamed at the man to stop..."

Austin stopped, tears begining to form in his eyes.

"P..Pablo begged him not to hurt me, to which he agreed...but he...he. Made Pablo do things to him.."

"What exactly did he made Pablo do?" Maria asked

"He started touching Pablo and kissing him all over his body and then his beak. Then, he placed the ball gag back into Pablo's mouth so that he couldn't scream. He then put his disgusting fingers deep into Pablo's...private areas, and went in and out of it quickly."

Austin stopped once again, not wanting to go on with the details. However, if that sick fuck was going to get what was coming to him. He knew that he had to continue on.

"Then the pig man started pulling his pants down..and grabbed at his...thing. He wound up..rubbing something on it. I don't know what it was. Then he...put himself inside of Pablo's private parts. I could tell that Pablo had to use every ounce of willpower not to scream. After a while, blood started to come out of Pablo's...front area. Then the pig man pulled himself out of Pablo's front end and then...he..put in his bottom."

Austin began shaking violently...trying to purge himself of the vial memories of his best friend and lover having to be subjected to the brutal assalt and rape.

"This kept going on for a few minutes more. untill he apperently finished. Then, the pig man pulled up his pants and started complimenting Pablo on how he was a..."good boy"." Austin spat in anger after saying that last line "good boy".

"What did he do next?" Maria asked

"After he was done with Pablo, he then went up to me."

(flashback)

"And now, it's time for you to be next!" The pig man squealed as he unlatched the chains from the ceiling area.

Austin soon began kicking and screaming underneath his duct taped mouth, which did nothing to stop the pig man's work that he was doing. However, before Alex could do anything else, he stopped dead in his tracks, and turned around.

"Oh don't worry Pablo. I'm going to keep my promise." The fat pig giggled "But that doesn't mean that he won't be of use to me though."

And with that, he dragged the screaming kangaroo deep into his bedroom, shut the door, and locked it. The interior of the bedroom area was one that would've resembled a morbid art peice. The walls where covered in various pictures of small children, some with red x's scrached around them, and others with green circles around the faces of a few children.

"Welcome to my humble abode, Austin." The pig man called out in a sickingly joyus way.

Austin just shook with fear, as he saw the macrabe work that the pigman had so carefully planned out on his wall. Then, without warning, Austin was dropped to the floor with a heavy thud. He would've thought that he'd be in serious pain, but on the contrary. It was a major relife on his arms. Slowly, but surly, the feeling in his arms returned. However, despite the temporary relife, Austin's hands where still shackled together. Alex then grabbed the chains that held Austin in place, and dragged him onto an old musty mattress with a stained pillow and blanket resting atop it.

"You'll stay here untill I'm done with you." the pig man said in a monotone voice.

"Untill then, you just stay put. After all that fun that I had with your little boyfriend, I'm going to take a nap."

Alex then walked over towards his plump, lumpy mattress (that was almost on par with the amount of filthyness as the other mattress that Austin was on). And within a few minutes, the sick bastard was snoring away.

(End of Flashback)

"I didn't really sleep that much that night. In fact, I just leaned my head on the wall, hoping to find some kind of sound that would have helped sooth me, but of course there was nothing." Austin said, still shaking

"Your doing very well Austin. I promise you that this won't last too much longer." Maria said checking the recorder.

"It's fine." Austin said flatly

"So what happened next?" Maria asked

"I don't really know. I wound up dozing off for about an hour or so...untill the pigman came bursting through the door of the room...screaming his head off."

(Flashback)

The sound of heavy, fast paced footsteps echoed throught the entire cabin area with a heavy boom at each step. The sound of which, caused Austin to bolt up from his sleep. Wide awake and worried.

"Oh my fucking god!" The pigman screamed as he barged into the room, turning the lights on in the process.

"That little fucker escaped!" the pigman yelled, as he began throwing various items across the room in an rage filled tantrum.

Austin just hid in his dirty bed. He was glad that his friend had escaped, but at the same time worried about the safety and well being of him as well. As he continued to watch the pigman throw a few things around like a toddler, he noticed that he grabbed a shotgun from behind a worn out nightstand that sat next to his bed. Austin's eyes widened with fear, as he knew for a fact what that monster had in store for Pablo. And one thing was for certian, was that Pablo most likely hadn't gone far in his escape, due to the recent sodomy that he gone through from the pigman.

"You can't do this!" Austin screamed

The pig man didn't stop moving around, however he did agnolage Austin's remark.

"Why shouldn't I?" The pig man spat

"Please don't hurt him..." Austin said, beginning to break down "I'll do anything!"

It was at that time that Alex had finally stopped dead in his tracks, and then turn his head towards the sniffling kangaroo. Then he gave a small smirk, and placed the shotgun next to the corner of the doorway. He then walked over towards Austin, and bent down to reach the young marsupial's face to face.

"You'll do anything?" the pigman said licking his lips to mosten them.

Austin hesitated for a moment, but then said

"Y...yes."

"What are you going to give me, to keep me from killing that penguin friend of yours?" The pigman asked

"W...whatev...whatever you want." Austin said timidly

"That's what I wanteed to hear."

Without another word being spoken, Austin found himself being lifted up (once again) into the air by his wrist. The seering pain that rocketed down his arms and to his lower back was hell for him. However, that pain only lasted for a moment, before he was plopped down onto the pig man's bed. Which was a bit more comfortable, although not by much. The pig man then unshackled one of the chains from Austin's wrist and connected the other one to the bars of the bed. Then, the pig man made his way towards the same nightstand that he had went by to get the shotgun, and opened up one of the drawers. Afer a few seconds of rummaging around, the pig man pulled out a large metal collar with a chain at the end of it, a long one. He then walked back over towards Austin, and placed the collar around Austin's neck, latching the end part of the chain into one of the loops of the bed.

"Here is how it's going to go Austin." The pig man said with a sadistic grin "I won't go and kill your little friend..he's most likely will die before he even reaches town. So...Your going to just sit there and do the same thing that your little penguin friend did to me. Your now going to be my little plaything. If you do a good job, I won't kill you or your little boyfriend. Got it?"

Austin began shaking again, this time more violently than last time. He then took a breath of air, and nodded his head in agreement. Alex cocked his head and his grin expanded to a nightmarish level.

"Good. You know Austin, what your little friend did really stressed me out." Alex said as he began to slowly undress down to his underwhere. He then walked towards the side of the bed, and lied down on it in a seductive manner. Austin just closed his eyes, not wanting to see the pig's septer and jewels sticking out of the cloth.

"You'll help me de-stress, won't you?" Alex said pulling Austin closer towards him.

"Y...yes." Austin whimpered

"Good."

(Flashback ends)

"He began taking off my clothes, one by one...Then began to remove his underware."

Austin cringed deeply, and shut his eyes tightly at having to remeber that thought.

"He...he did things to me that I didn't even know where possible...He also put himself in my bottom, and...the pain was so bad that I wound up passing out."

"Do you want to take a break Austin?" Maria said concerned

"No." Austin said shaking his head furously "I want everyone in that courtroom to know what he did to me!"

Maria just sat back down in her chair, and continued to listen to Austin.

"When I finally woke up, he had already finished...My bottom hurt really really badly. I could barely move my legs at all... For the next three days, it was all the same. Wake up, violate me, feed me a bunch of jerky, and then violate me again. Despite the pain and the fear that I had though...I started to come up with a plan to try and get rid of him."

"What was the plan?" Maria asked

"The plan was to choke himout during his sleep...however after he had kidnapped Pablo for the second time, I decided to do it while me and Pablo where together. Let me tell you, it worked, but unfortionatly he didn't die. He then attacked me and Pablo one last time, and slammed me against a mirror and side table drawer. There, I found one of his guns, and once I cocked it...I shot him in his back..."

"Thank you Austin for telling me everything that happened to you. This is really going to help us. Your, plus Pablo's, testimonies here on this recorder are definetly going to convict that pig man." Maria said with a sly smile

"Can I ask you a question, Detective Maria?" Austin asked

"Sure thing Austin, anything." Maria responded

"Is the pig man dead?" Austin said with a heavy amount of hate in his tone of voice.

"No Austin. He isn't." Maria said "He didn't die from the gunshot wound, but he is paralized from the waist down for the rest of his life." Maria said

"Oh..well at least he suffering. That's what I like to see, at least with him that is." Austin said with a grin forming on his face

"Same here Austin. I promise you that we'll make sure that monster is taken care of for good." Maria said

"Thank you..." Austin said

There was a period of silence for a moment between the two, untill Austin spoke up.

"Detective Maria. How are my parents doing?"

Maria froze up. She didn't want to have to tell Austin the bad news, but she really didn't have much of a choice in the situation. She took a deep breath, and looked at Austin with a saddened look on her face, which made Austin confused.

"W..What's wrong?" Austin asked

"Austin sweetie, I need to tell you something..." Maria said softly

"What is it?" Austin asked

Maria gulped, and prepaired herself for the worst.

"You see Austin, yesterday me and few police officers went over to your home to interview your parents. They didn't answer the door, and so we had to scout out the area to check if everything was okay. Then...we saw..something in the window that concerned us, so we busted through the door and we found..."

Austin's eyes began watering, he already knew what she was going to say. It didn't take a prodegy like him to figure it out. Maria noticed this, and started to tear up a bit herself.

"I'm sorry Austin...your parents...they're gone." Maria said sadly

In that instant, something inside of Austin cracked..His body shook violently, tears where already flowing down his face, and his lip quivered as he just silently sobbed. Maria immediatly wrapped her arms around Austin, and carressed him in a soft hug, rubbing his back to try and calm the now weeping kangaroo that was huddled against her. No words where said, as neither of them could say anything at this point. After a few minutes, Maria leg go of Austin, and just looked at him with pity.

"Wh...who's gonna...who's gonna take care of me..?" Austin said in between sobs

"As of now Austin, Pablo's mother has happily agreed to take you in. She's getting the adoption papers ready as we speak." Maria said

"Ok...How..how did they die?" Austin sobbed

"Your mother hung herself, and your father...he...shot himself." Maria said with great hestitation in her voice.

Austin said nothing, but continued to grieve for his now decesed parents.

"If you want Austin, I can give you some time alone if you want." Maria asked

"Sure...I...I...I just want Pablo..." Austin sniffled

"I'll go and get him Austin. You've had enought to deal with today, so i'll just let you rest for the rest of the day okay?" Maria said calmly

"Okay..." Austin said quietly

Maria nodded, and then started heading out of the door. The recorder and other items all packed up and ready to go. Just as Maria was about to exit the doorway, Austin called out to her.

"Detective."

"Yes Austin?" Maria said

"When you see that pig man." Austin then lifted up his head, to show a face filled with wrath and anger "Do me a favor, and make his life hell.."

"I'll do that for you Austin." Maria said as she closed the door to the room.

Maria took in a deep breath, the reaction was what she expected, but thankfully it didn't get too bad. Now that that was out of the way, she now had the testemony of Austin, which would then be added to the evedence to convict that fucked up man. However, before she decided to leave the hospital to go and turn in the evedince, she made her way towards one of the nurses in the hallway and asked about Pablo. The nurse cocked his head a bit at this, but after a little description given to him by Maria, he quickly recconised him. There, he took the detective to a room at the far end of the hallway. There he opened up a small window on the door and allowed Maria to look in.

"Do you know how long he's going to be in there for?" Maria asked the male nurse

"From what I've been told by the other doctors, he should be back into his room in the next hour or so. However, we're going to have to give him some medicine to relax him during the night, so that he doesn't have any more night terrors." The nurse said closing flipping through pages on his clipboard.

"Could I talk with him for a bit, it's needed for a case?" Maria asked

"I'm one hundred precent sure if I'm aloud to do that, Detective. However, I can talk with the..."

The nurse was quickly cut off, by the sound of Maria's cell phone going off.

"I'm sorry, it's my boss again." Maria said as she grabbed at her phone and answered the call

"That's fine, I'll be over in the next room if you need me." the nurse said as he turned away and walked into another patient's room

"Hello?" Maria said

"Detective, did manage to get Austin's side of the story?" Ezekel asked

"Yes Sir, I did." Maria responded

"Good, did you tell Austin." Ezekel asked

"Yes Captian...He didn't take it well." Maria said as a matter of factly

"Poor Kid...I had a feeling he wouldn't." Ezekel said

"Yeah...He just needs some time to recover." Maria said

"God...I can't imagine how much pain he must be in right now. First he gets kidnapped by that fat bastard, next he gets raped over and over again, now his parents are dead..Fuck me."

"As of right now Cheif, Pablo's mother is in the process of getting the papers ready to adopt Austin. So at least he won't have to suffer through the foster care services."

"Good. Now Detective, since you've already gotten the interview that we need, go on ahead and get back to the station."

"But sir, what about Pablo's interview?" Maria asked

"The testimony that Pablo gave with you at the station is enough. Besides, Austin's account should pretty much match up with everything." Ezekel responded

"Has anyone found any more evedence at the cabin?"

"Yes in fact, after searching around the main bedroom in the cabin..We found a camcorder and few SD cards in a large wooden box." Ezekel said

"Have you or anyone else viewed it's contents?"

"Yes, and we found some rather disturbing content on it..I'd rather not go into in as of right now. It's just best for you come to the station and veiw it yourself." Elzekel said

"Okay sir. Another question, has Alex Burns been detained?"

"Oh he's been detained alright. He's with us right now in one of the interigation rooms."

"Are we going to interogate him anytime soon?" Maria asked

"As of right now...no. He refuses to say anything untill his lawer arrives. Honestly with the heavy amount of evidence convicting this peice of shit, it'd be a miricle if any attorney would want to defend his sorry ass." Ezekele said

"I see, okay Cheif. I should be at the station with the evidence as soon as possible." Maria said

"Good, I'll see you there."

With that, the call ended. Maria took another look into the window of the room that contained the small penguin.

"I promise Pablo, that ass hat is going to get what's coming to him..and soon." Maria whispered

Maria then adjusted the coat she was wearing, and soon made her way out of the hospital as fast as she could. Upon arriving at the station, Maria gathered up the recorder, the files, and the notes that she had taken during the interview with Austin. She then made her way into the entrance of the station and looked around a bit. Then, her phone dinged. She quickly grabbed at her phone and checked it. It was a text:

"Hey, me and the other officers are in the interegation room to the left of my office. Should've told you that over the phone..sorry. "

Placing the phone back into it's holster, she quickly made her way towards the interigation room that was listed on the text message. As she walked, she could only think about what Austin had told her to do before she left the room "When you see him...make his life a living hell!" Those words continued to echo throughout her head with each step she took. The words finally died down, when she made her way into the interrigation room.

"Ah, Detective Maria. Thank you for coming." Ezekele said with a smile on his face

"No problem Cheif." Maria said

Maria looked down at the table, and saw Alex sitting next to it in a weel-chair. An oxygen tube coming out from his deformed nose, and down into an oxygen tank near the weelchair. Next to the chair was an IV bag and holder that was connected to his fat greasy wrist. Pain killers no-doubt. Alex just stared up at Maria with a sadistic smile on face, his rotten teeth giving off a foul odor that nearly caused everyone in the room to vomit form the stentch.

"Fucking hell, do you ever brush?" Ezekele said holding his nose in disgust

"No. At least not for people like you." Alex said letting out a loud belch in responce

"You do know why your here right?" Maria asked

"I ain't saying shit untill my lawyer arrives." Alex grunted

"That might be a while Alex...or how you should be called Pig man." Maria said with distain

"Is that what those little faggots call me? Ha! I love it!" Alex yelled out with joy

"You better shut that god-damn mouth up, you fucking cock sucker!" Ezekele snapped

"Or what? You can't do or say shit to me! As far as I'm concerned I can ramble on as much as I please." Alex spat

"You know Alex, your one ugly son of a bitch. Maybe that's the reason why you go after little kids, because no sane person would ever want to touch you." Maria sneered

Alex just laughed hard in responce. He didn't stop laughing, untill a loud knocking sound came from the door. Maria walked over towards it and opened it up. Once she did, a male ferret dressed in a fancy suit and tie walked in carring a briefcase in his paws.

"I see your his lawyer?" Ezekele asked

"Yes I am. The name's John C. Curtus. I'm here to represent my client." John said formally as he sat down next to Alex

"Have they asked you any questions yet?" John asked Alex

"No..Just some petty insults and shit." Alex said grinning

"I see." John said as he pulled out a black curved box, pulling out a pair of black specticles and placing them on his face.

"Enough with the chit chat." Maria began "Let's get this show on the road."

"Fine by me." Alex groaned

Ezekele then walked over towards Maria, and then whispered something in her ear. Maria nodded after he had finished what he had to say, and with that Ezekele walked out of the interigation room.

"Wait a second, where the hell is going?" John asked standing up

"He's going to get a few things, so we can start this all up. Now sit down." Maria ordered

Five minutes passed, then ten, then fifteen. Not a single word or sound indicated that Ezekele was coming back to the room. John just tapped away on the desk, while Alex continued to stare at Maria with a wide perverted smile on his face.

"Is he coming or what" John called out

"He should be here any minute now." Maria answered

"It's been fifteen minutes already, and nothing has happened yet! My client is sitting here, most likely in extream pain, and needs to go back to the hospital where he belongs. If your boss isn't back in the next two minutes, this inteview is over!" John threatened

"Dude, calm your tits. I'm not in any pain right now. In fact, I can't wait to see what kind of evidence that asshole has." Alex giggled

"Alex, with all due sincerity. Could you shut up." John said calmly

"I can say whatever the fuck I want." Alex spat

Just as the conversation was about to get heated, the door to the interegation room opened up slowly. Everyone looked at the doorway, to see Captian Ezekel walk in, with many files and even a camcorder in his hands.

"So Alex, you ready for your ass to get handed to you?" Ezekele said with a smirk

"You wish, you stupid cunt." Alex muttered under his breath

Ezekele then placed the rest of the files on the desk, and then just stared at Alex with a giant grin on his face.

"What's that?" Alex asked

"Oh nothing much, just your criminal record, the tapes and camera footage of dozens of children, and DNA samples from your little jerky stuff at you cabin." Ezlekel said

Alex's eyes widened as the captian started to flip into one of the manilla envelopes and pull out a series of photos and place them on the table.

"Do you, by any chance, know who these kids are?" Ezekele asked

Both Alex and John both looked down at the photos that where placed in front of them. One photo was of Tyrone, the other of Uniqua, and the final one of Tasha.

"No, I don't." Alex lied

"Bullshit!" Maria yelled "These kids where the last ones that you kidnapped, tortured, and killed back at that cabin."

"And what proof do you have against my client?" John asked

"Well, according to DNA evedence done by our forenzic team. We found traces of their blood all over the cabin, not to mention their fingerprints as well." Ezekele said

"My question to you Alex is this. Why did you do it? Why did you murder those kids!" Maria yelled

"I don't have to answer to you, bitch!" Alex growled

"That's fine Alex, we'll just let all of the eveidence speak for you. Let's see here." Ezekele said flipping through multiple files and laying out

"The Jerky that you made was tested, and through DNA annalysis, and it was found to be made of the bodies of various children, not just the ones that you kiddnapped."

Ezekele then placed another picture down, this time of the rotting corpses that had been found at the scene of the crime.

"Bodies of multiple children where found underneath your cabin through a hatch, most of them showing sighns of blunt force trauma to the head, and various other indents and other injuries caused by blunt force."

Maria then placed down the files that contained both Austin and Pablo's rape kit.

"Not too mention the rape kits that were preformed on both Austin and Pablo, that found seaminal fluid that was still alive too."

"We also have footage of your little homemade snuff kiddy porn that was boxed away in your room. Including an almost four hour long video of you raping Austin over and over and over again." Ezekele growled

More and more pages of evidence, photos, and screenshots from the homemade videos that had been on the tapes where shown.

"Honestly Alex, we could go on and on and on with this. And all these folders, pictures, and video footage that we have, is only the tip of the iceburg. We've also have your records of your litte past child fiddling days too. There's honestly nothing that you can say or do at this point Alex...your fucked and you know it." Maria said with a grin on her face

Alex's attorney John took a close look at some of the evedince before him, and sighed.

"Fine, what's your plea deal?" John asked

"Fuck that, he isn't getting a deal...In fact he'd be lucky to get life in prison for the stuff he's done." Ezekele spat

"Fine then, we'll see you in court." John said packing up his suitcase

"Oh you bet your ass we'll see you there." Maria said

With that, John packed the rest of his things into his suitcase, and began to wheel Alex out of the interigation room. Once the two of them where out, Maria and Ezekele both high fived each other.

"This case is going to be done and over with really soon. Once a jury takes one look at this evedence, they're going to have his ass roasted in the electric chair." Ezekele said joyfully

"One question though, will Austin and Pablo have to testify? " Maria asked

"Well, you do have the recordings. So it's not very likely that they will have to testify, however have them ready to do such, if the judge orders them to do so." Ezekele said

"Will do. When's the trial supposed to start?" Maria asked

"Tommorow. All the evedence has been turned in, and the case is already ready to go to court." Ezekele said "Now, I need you to go and get yourself some rest, I'll tell Pablo's mother about the case coming up." Ezekele said

"Thank you." Maria said

"No problem." Ezlekele responded

After that, Maria then made her way out of the station, and back into her car. The sun had already began setting by the time she had she had already got into her car. As she drove off to her house, she braced herself for what was to come the next day. The case to end this insanity.

The very next day, Maria readied herself mentaly and physically for the case that was to come. Before the trial started, she made her way to the hospital and made sure to talk with both Austin and Pablo about what was to come of the court case, and to ready themselves if they where to be called up to the stand. The two of them where nervious, but determined to have Alex put away for life (at least for Pablo that is). Austin however, wanted nothing else more than to see that pig man fry slowly and painfully in that electric chair. After the talk, Maria then made her way to the courthouse, with Elezebeth fallowing behind her with the two boys. Once they arrived, Maria directed the three of them to go and sit in one of the court house pews and wait for the case to start.

" The case should be starting in a few minutes. You three just stay comfortable untill then okay?" Maria said in a soft voice

"Okay." Austin and Pablo both said in uison

Maria smiled, and ruffled the fur/feathers in top of the boys heads to encourage them, before walking out of the courtroom. Maria then stood near the enterance doors, waiting for the captian to arrive so that she could be given instructions on what she needed to do next. Almost in an instant, Ezekele came walking into the main doors of the courthouse and walked up towards Maria with a small smile on his face.

"Detective Maria." Ezekele said

"Welcome Captian. Well, today's the day."

"Yes it is. Here is what I need you to do today. I need you to just simply sit next to Austin and Pablo through the whole trial today. I've already handed over the evedence to the prosecutor already." Ezekele said

"Who's going to be the prosecutor?" Maria asked

"One of the best prosecutors in town. Emily F. Tanner." Ezekele answered

"I've heard about her, she apperently hasn't lost a single case in her time as a lawyer." Maria said scraching her chin.

"Yup, she's one of million, especially if it involves cases anything to do with children." Ezekele said

"What about the judge?" Maria asked "We don't need another corrupt one running the case."

"Don't you worry about that Detective." Ezekele began" Judge Damian is a judge that is dedicated to his job, and he takes no shit from anyone. Especially child preditors."

"Good." Maria said

"Alright, let's get in there. The case is going to begin a few minutes." Ezekele said, opeining the door and walking into the courtroom.

Minutes passed, and the courtoom was suprisingly full to the brim with people. Apperently a heavy amount of people in the town wanted the same thing that Austin and Pablo wanted, justice. One by one, the juriers all assumed their seat in the jury. Then, once Alex and his lawyer finally arrived at the courtroom and assumed their spots on the defendent side. The judge walked out of his office, clad in black robe, and in his hand a solid oak cain.

" Case number 1708, People vs Alex Barns. All rise for the honorable coris nor, Judge Damian presiding." the court ballif called out

Everyone in the courtroom rose up for the judge, who (due to his age) had a bit of a hard time getting up the stairs and to his seat. However, he managed to get there with little help needed.

"Curse this god forsaken athritis. Anyway, you all may be seated." Judge Damian called out

Everyone sat down in an instant.

"Okay, let's see here." Judge Damian said pulling out his glasses and putting them on his face "What are the charges?"

"Murder in the first degree, sexual assault of a minor, cannibalism, assault and battery, illegal use of a weapon, rape of a minor, assault on a police officer, attempted murder and kidnapping, kidnapping, pre meditated murder, indangering the welfare of a child, and a few other charges as well." The Prosecuter Emily read out

"Good Lord...that's alot of charges. How does the defendent plead?"

"Not guilty by reason of insanity." John called out

"How much on Bail?"

"Reprmand your honor, this man is a flight risk, and a wanted sex offender. He too much of a danger to society to be given bail." Emily said

"Your honor, my client here is paralized from the waist down due to a gunshot wound. I hightly doubt he'd be able to even get out of room, much less try and get on a plane." John said

"That may be true , but given the risk, I'll have to side with over there. Now that that's all out of the way, let's start with opening statements. you may start now." Judge Damian responded

"Thank you, your honor." Emily said, before getting up from her seat and making her way towards the jury.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury. I would like to thank you all for taking your time to come and be apart of this case on you spare time. With that, I try and keep this brief. This case that you are here to wittness today is involving that man over there, Alex J. Burns. That man is currently under arrest for the torture, mutliation, and rape of numerious children in the area. As you will see in the evedence presented to you in a little while. I hope and pray that you take the time to observe the eviedence and make a proper judgement. Thank you."

With that, Emily walked back into her seat with no final word.

"Well you where right about one thing .That was certianly short. Now, Mr.J your opening statement?

Josh immediatly stood up, and without hesitiation began his statement.

"Like said before, I welcome you all. Now, I'm not the one for formalities, so I'll just cut to the case. The prosecution would like you to belive that my client over there is a sadistic monster, hell bent on the murder of young children and the like. But I do wish to tell you all that my client is nothing like that. He is, however, mentaly unstable in many forms. I hope that you all make the right decision, thank you."

Like with Emily, Josh made his way back towards his desk and sat down upon it.

"Well, another short statement. If anything, this case should be over by end of the day if all things go quickly." The judge stated "Okay prosecutor, you may start first."

"Thank you your honor. I'd like to start this case off, with providing evedience number 625 and 780."

Emily then pulled out a large evedence bag that contained every single tape that had been found inside of the cabin bedroom, as well as the recording device that Maria had used to record the inteviews of both Pablo and Austin. She then grabbed them, and placed them onto the judges desk.

"My lord, these are a lot of tapes." The judge said puzzled

"Yes your honor, and with your premission, i'd like to play them for the jury." Emily said

"Does the defence have any objections to this motion?" The judge asked

"No your honor." the defence attorney responded

"Well then, the motion is granted." The judge said

"One more thing your honor, these tapes and recordings are rather graphic. I also would like to ask that the courtroom be cleared in order to spare them from the...tramatic sights that will be played." Emily said

"Given the nature of the crimes and accusations, I'll allow it. I here by order this courtroom to be cleared out untill further notice. However, this is not a recess. So you may not leave the courthouse untill I give the order." The judge then slammed his gavel down at least four times, before everyone (including Pablo and Austin) made their way out of the courtroom in droves. Once everyone was out, the doors to the courtroom where shut and locked from the inside, as to keep away any prying eyes. While this was going on, both Pablo and Austin looked at each other in confusion and then turned their heads towards Detective Maria.

"What's going on?" Austin asked

"The jury is going to listen to the evedence." Maria answered

"Oh...okay." Austin said

Despite the doors being closed, almost everyone could hear the gasps of the jury members. Maria herself knew that they'd all be doing a lot more than gasping once they watched the tapes. During the course of a few hours, the jury, judge, the plantif and defendent all watched every single tape, and listened to the recordings as well. The jury memebers, by the end of it all, where eaither shaking violently, gagging and/or vomiting. The judge just held his head in his hands in disgust. Hell even Alex's attorney looked with distain at his clinet for the disgusting shit that he done to all of those children. Seeing as how everyone in the courtroom was deeply...disturbed. The judge immediatly ordered a thirty minute recess to be held. Once it was ordered, a majority of the jury ran out of the courtroom, and into the restrooms to vomit. Others, just sat in their seats, completely tramustised by what they had seen. The rest just walked out of the courtroom in disgust. After a quick lunch break, everyone was soon back into the courtroom, ready to get this entire thing over with.

"All Rise!" The courtroom ballif called out once again

Judge Damian walked out of his office, branding a sickly look on his face. No doubt having been caused by the tapes and the audio recordings.

"Okay...I think we're all ready to con..continue with this case."

Judge Damina looked over at the defendents table, and noticed that the defendent's lawyer was no where in sight.

" , what the hell happened to your lawyer?" Judge Damian demanded

"He quit." Alex said flatly

"Well, as much as I want nothing more than to see you hang for the shit you've done to those kids...I have to get you another lawyer." The judge said begrudgingly

"Don't bother your honor. I'll defend myself." Alex said

"Fine, I'll alow it. Defence, call up your first wittness." The Judge said

"Gladly your honor. Defence calls Pablo to the stand." Alex said, all to joyfully

There was a slight gasp amongst the crowd of people, which normally would've had the judge slamming his gavel down to quiet the people, but this time, he allowed it. Pablo froze in his seat, grasping Austin's hand tightly. He looked over at Maria, who had already begun to get up from her seat.

"Your honor? Call him up." Alex said

"You shut the hell up. I will alow the wittness to take the time that he needs to come up." The judge snapped

"Do..I..Do I need to go up there?" Pablo whispered, his body shaking with fear

"I'm afraid so Pablo, but I'll be there to help you." Maria whispered back

With much hesitation, Pablo got up from his seat, and walked down the isle. His flipper grasped tightly in Maria's paw. Everyone in the jury looked at the young avian, their faces showed a look of sorrow and pity. Maria then helped Pablo up to the chair and sat him down. The court ballif walked up towards Pablo.

"Raise your right flipper." the officer demanded, to which Pablo obeyed

"Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. So help you God?"

"Yes sir." Pablo responded back

Once that was done, Alex wheeled himself over towards the young avian, a big perverted grin on his face. Pablo, at this point, already wanted to vomit his guts out just looking at the man. The judge noticed this, and glaired down at the pig man and growled

"You so much as threaten him, or even look at him the wrong way. So help me God, I'll have you held in contempt of court. You got that?"

"Yes your honor." Alex stated flatly

"So Pablo, during the inteview that you had with Detective Maria here, you said that I had you tied down to a chair by your flippers? Am I correct?" Alex asked

"Y...y..yes." Pablo said, still shaking

"May I ask you Pablo, did you by any chance, be able to see anything?"

"N..no." Pablo said

"So how is it that you where able to see what I supposely did to your friend Tasha and Uniqua?" Alex asked again

"I...I don't know." Pablo muttered

"Need I remind you Pablo, that you are under oath. And that lying on the stand can get in jail for a long time?"

Pablo continued to shake, he felt like he was going to pass out from fear.

"Answer the question Pablo." Alex said firmly

"I...I know." Pablo said, tears forming in his eyes

"So answer my question. How where you able to see me attacking your friends!?" Alex yelled

"Th...there was a light in the kitchen." Pablo answered

"Another question, you said that I raped you. How exactly could that even be possible since I am a big guy." Alex boasted

"Objection!" The prosecuter called out

"Or are you useing that excuse to cover up the fact that your a faggot?" Alex spat

"Objection!" The prosecuter yelled

"Sustained. Alex you better ask real question, before I beat you with my gavel!" The judge threatened

"Yes your honor. One last question Pablo, what did I do to you?, In your words." Alex asked

Pablo started to shake violently, his stomach began twisting into knots, and a river of tears flowed down his face. He was ready to just give up right then and there, when all of a sudden, three voices called out to him. He opened up his tear stained eyes, and saw them. His friends; Tasha, Uniqua, and Tyrone sitting right next him, they shined a pure white light and their usual clothing was now a long white robe. Everything in the courtroom seemed to slow down to a snail's pace in the process.

"Hey Pablo." Tyrone said smiling

"T..tyrone. Is that y...you?" Pablo asked

"Yeah buddy, it's me." Tyrone said

"And don't forget about us!" Tasha and Uniqua said in unison

"G..guys it's you. What are doing here?" Pablo asked

"We're here to help you out Pablo." Tyrone said

"Really?" Pablo said

"You bet Pablo." Tasha said

"What should I do?" Pablo whimpered

"You need to let go of your fear and stand up to that pig man! Tell everyone in the court everything that he did to you and us. I promise you Pablo, once you do that. The pig man will have nothing to use against you, and then he will be defeted." Tasha said

"And don't worry, we'll be by your side the whole time. You just speak, and we'll all get rid of that fear in you." Uniqua said

"Th..Thank you guys. I love you all." Pablo whimpered

"We love you too Pablo. Now let's get you back into that courtroom." Tasha said

"I'm not going to ask again, answer the question!" Alex yelled

Pablo immediatly broke out of his trance, and lifted his head up to meet the pig man's snarling gaze. All ounces of fear and dread that had been present in his body, where now all gone. Replacing it, was a sence of confidence, hope, and fearlessness. Pablo gazed at the pig man once more, and smirked.

"Fine, I'll answer." Pablo began

Alex's face soon dropped from a sadistic grin, to a look of fear.

"You drugged the marshmellows that were in the cooler, and dragged us all into your disgusting cabin. Then you killed my friends and then raped me!" Pablo screamed

Alex took a step back.

"He..he was supposed to break...what the fuck is going on?" Alex said in his head

"Then you raped my boyfriend Austin, and then you had the audactiy to try and kidnap me again. Well guess what you peice of shit! Your done with, it's over now. Your not going to get into my head anymore, no more crying, no more fear. I'm going to make sure of it that you beg me to spare your life by the time i'm done with you!"

Alex's heart dropped down to his stomach, and his face now bore a defeted and destroyed look. He wheeled himself back to his desk, and then said.

"I'm changing my plea. I plead guilty your honor."

There was a hushed murmuring in the crowd, which caused the judge to swing his gavel on the table to get everyone to shut up.

"I see. Well I accept your plead. Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I thank you for your time here. You will be compensated greatly for your work done today." Judge Damian said with a smile.

"As for you , Are you ready for the sentencing?" the judge asked

"Yeah." Alex said defeted

"Pablo and Austin, I wish to ask you two to come to bench." Judge Damian said with a smile on his face.

Without hesitation, both Pablo and Austin made their way towards the judge. The ballif helping the two of them up the steps.

"Austin..Pablo." The judge began "On beahalf of this courtroom, I wish to commend you two for being so brave in telling your account. Austin, you may not have said anything during this trial, but your testemony as well as your coroperation helped bring this disgusting man to justice. More than that, you sacrificed your own self just to save your best friend. You my dear kangaroo. Are a hero and a true friend. Pablo, in all my years of being a judge, you are the first child that i've seen to stand up towards your attacker face to face. Not many children are able, or desire, to do that kind of thing. Yet you concured your fears and showed that man that your are stronger than he is. And now that he's seen that you wouldn't allow him to control you anymore, he's given up. You two are true heros. Which is why I want to ask you two a question. Do you want me to sentence this man to death, or give him life in prison?"

Austin and Pablo both looked at each other, and nodded.

"Kill him." the two said in union

Alex's eyes widened with fear, as he began to thrash around in his wheelchair.

"As you wish. Alex , by the power vested in me by the state, I here by sentence you to death by the electric chair. Your death will be carried out tommorow at 6pm. This court is abjured." The judge said as he slammed the hammer down onto the table, sealing Alex's fate.

Alex just sat there in his wheelchair, unmoving, as the ballif took him away. The sound of applause and cheers from the people in the courtroom rang out like an orcristrah. Even the judge himself applauded. Once both Austin and Pablo where taken down from the judge's seat, the two of them embraced and kissed each other in celebration of this event. Justice was served that day, and Alex in just 24 hours, will forever be confined to the debts of hell for all eternity to be torn apart and raped by demons untill judgement day.

The next day went by as quickly as it could, Alex was taken out of his cell. He was dressed in a prison jumpsuit, and was chained from head to toe with handcuffs and collars. Now he knew what it felt like when he did that to the children he tortured and killed. As he continued to walk towards the execution room, both detective Maria and Captian Ezekele walked next to him and glared at him with huge grins on their faces.

"How's it feel to be chained up like an animal pig man?" Maria geered

"I bet you like that you son of a bitch. Just like the children you attacked." Ezekele spat

Upon arrival at the execution room, Alex was strapped down onto the chair, and braced himself for his final moments on earth. That is, untill the door opened up and both Pablo and Austin walked in.

"What the fuck are they doing here!?" Alex screamed

"We're here to end your life, like you did to our friends." Austin said coldly

Pablo just smirked once again at the pig man in front of him. He didn't say anything, he didn't need to. Just the petrified look on Alex's face was enough to satsify him. In unison, the two placed one arm/fipper onto the switch, and then pulled it down hard.

The shockwave of electricity course through the body of the pig man, causing his entire body to shoot up, smoke coming from off of his pores. Foam came out of the pig's mouth, as his eyes burst in their sockets, sending rivers of juice and blood pouring down his face. This continued for a good fifteen whole minutes, untill Austin and Pablo pulled the switch up, turning the machine off. The pigman's body was almost charred black from the heavy amount of electricity that coursed through his body. He was dead for sure. His body was then taken out of the room and dumped into a large dirt hole in the ground and buried soul immediatly plummeting into the deepest, darkest pits of hell. This was end of the Alex, otherwise known as The Pig Man.
