Chapter 3: The Trap
Stanley and Hector walked to the parking lot of the middle school, which was located in the back. Hector then asked,
"Do you know the guy's name?"
"No."
"Did they say what they would be wearing?"
"No."
At that moment, a van pulled up near them.
"That must be them," said Stanley smiling, but his facial expression changed quickly when he saw the men getting out of a car holding a gun.
"Get into the back of the van. Now!"
Stanley and Hector had no other choice. They got into the back of the van quietly and sat down. The men slammed the door. Stanley then realized that they had been tricked. Who knows what they were gonna do with them.
10:00 pm that night.
"Where could they be?" cried Mrs. Yelnats. Ms. Zeroni was at the house as well as X-Ray. He was waiting for Hector and Stanley. The phone suddenly rang.
Mrs. Yelnats ran to pick it up.
"Hello, Stanley. Hector!"
"No. We have them though."
"Where are they?"
"You can have them back if you turn over 5,000.00 by Friday. We'll call you later to see if you accept our offer."
The dial tone rang through Mrs. Yelnats ear. She dropped the telephone onto the floor. Her face was white.
"They've been kidnapped," she barely said.
"I'm calling the police," said Mr. Yelnats getting up.
After a while, X-Ray had left. He was very calm. That's probably why he was the leader of D Tent at Camp Green Lake. He went back to his house and called Squid.
"This is Squid."
"What's up. This X-Ray."
"What's up."
"You probably won't be able to believe this. But Caveman and Zero have been kidnapped."
"For real!"
"Yeah. We're gonna help them though. Round up the boys and meet me at the park tomorrow at noon."
"Alright. See you then."
They both hung up and X-Ray felt energized.
"D Tent is gonna come up!"
