Clockwerk paced around his lair talking to his partner. The motion sensors helped his radio frequency. A guard came up to him but he just shrugged him off. His falcon guards just lounged around eating up all the bird seed. He didn't need to eat but he kept the food for old time's sake. He didn't appreciate is men eating all of it. Gosh how he hated them. The last few groups of men had flown the coop because he had blown up at them. He was starting to hate everyone and his partner was wearing his patience very thin.
"What do you mean Cooper's still alive?" asked Clockwerk. "I told you to finish him off!"
"I haven't been around him for that long." Explained Tootie. "Besides you didn't kill him when you broke in. You finished off a master thief so I don't believe you couldn't finish off a small boy."
"There wasn't enough time." Clockwerk snapped. "Besides I thought it would be good to leave him alive. Show the world they're nothing without the book. But Miss Ruby's vision showed otherwise. I can't do everything you know! You should have pretended to be friends so you could get to him faster!"
".."
Clockwerk hung up. He didn't want to hear any more excuses.
"Muggshot load the big guns. "We're going in in two weeks."

Tootie pocketed the phone and flushed the toilet. She didn't care about wasting the water. The Water Force could handle cleaning it. They thought they knew everything anyway. She walked out and rejoined Missa and Karel.
"Let's go." said Missa.
London walked along sensing that there was something wrong.
'Well what do I know anyway?' She mimicked in her head. 'They don't care about me.'

"Carmeroine, Rapisurea, Headrined, Extrandiong EMBAISILA!" Miss Ruby casted the spell and made the whole graveyard come to life.
Bony hands reached up from under the ground. Arms appeared next. Pretty soon the whole body of the zombies had emerged from the ground.
"Go forth my minions and get ready! We strike in two weeks! This is your objective!" she holds up a picture of Sly.
The zombies walked towards the snack bar and Miss Ruby groaned.

"This elegant blue dress will be $123.00" said the clerk.
Persephone slid her father's credit card into the slot. She was taking Murray, Sly, Bentley, and Tootie shopping. So far Sly had bought 12 pairs of jeans, 21 t-shirts and 5 pars of shoes. Murray and Bentley had bought the exact same things. Tootie had got many sundresses. But Persephone bought everything she saw.
"Ok ma'am your credit card is empty now." said the clerk.
Persephone nodded and they walked out.
"Ok we're telling dad we lost the credit card ok."
Everyone agreed.
Persephone looked at Sly and felt a strange feeling. She thought he looked very handsome.
"Hey Sly would you want to go out to dinner with me later tonight?" she asked.
Sly jumped at the chance to go out with her.
"Of course!" Sly said.
They had walked in the door and thrown their coats down. London had overheard and went up to her room.
It was bad enough she couldn't go shopping and now this. She sobbed into her pillow. Her hand reached under her bed and she picked up her teddy bear. Her mother had bought it before she was born. She crawled under the covers and went to sleep with her teddy bear in her arms.
30 minutes later.
"Guys go get London, dinner's ready." said Missa.
"I'll do it." said Bentley.
He climbed the stairs and walked down the long corridor to her room. He opened the door and walked inside. He turned on the lights and he heard a groan.
"Why did you wake me up?" London asked. "I was having a dream I was an eagle and my mother loved me.!"
"Dinner's ready." Bentley answered.
"I'm not hungry!" then she pulled the covers over her head.
He shrugged and turned the lights off and left.
"Where's London?" asked Murray.
"She's not coming."
"Well if she doesn't want to eat she doesn't want to eat." said Persephone.
"Right!" everyone replied.
"Dig in everybody!" said Karel holding up a fork.
"Very good." said a voice in the shadows to faint for anyone to hear.
