Over the next week Chrissy continued her reign of terror against Elias & the younger kids. Angel & Elias avoided her by locking themselves in their bedroom, pup house & the spare cabin respectively depending on whether they were at home or at Jake's. The younger kids weren't as lucky & continued to endure physical & psychological abuse from Chrissy. On Monday afternoon they all sat together at lunch still trying to think of ways to expose Chrissy.
"There must be something we can do. I don't know how much more abuse I can take" said Alex.
"If only it was that easy. We've been trying for 2 weeks now & still we've come up empty" said Angel.
"I'm sick of Chrissy thinking she can get away with all of this. I know that there is at least 1 way to stop her" said Elias.
"We can't go to anyone for help since nobody else believes us. This is hard" said Julius.
"We'll need proof of her actions. Our bruises & testimony aren't enough" said Justina.
"If she was caught on camera that would be all the proof we need. Then everyone would believe us" said Precious' Owner.
"Wait that's it. Precious' Owner you're a genius. If we film her using our phones we can show everyone what happened & Chrissy will be exposed once & for all. We'll have to let her abuse us though. I know that doesn't sound good but otherwise we can't prove anything. Next week on Monday we'll show everyone the footage. I can't wait to see Chrissy finally get what she deserves. We've got her guys" said Elias.
The rest of the school day went as normal. After school Angel, Elias & the younger kids hung out with each other at the park. Chrissy was supposed to take care of Alex that night. Even though they all wished that it didn't have to happen they knew that it was the only way to prove Chrissy's guilt. Mr Porter called Alex to let him know it was time to come home. As they all walked to Mr Porter's restaurant together they discussed their plan of action.
"So where do I put my phone?" asked Alex.
"Somewhere that will catch Chrissy in the act. Try either the kitchen or the lounge" said Angel.
"I'll do the same tomorrow. You guys do the same when Chrissy takes care of you as well. Next week on Monday we'll show everyone the footage" said Elias.
"Hopefully this week is the last week Chrissy has to babysit any of us. I want her to go away forever" said Julius.
"Maybe Aunt Mayor will throw her out of town. That's what she deserves" said Justina.
"That's what I hope happens. She doesn't belong here in Adventure Bay. The further away from us she is the better" said Precious' Owner.
As they arrived at the restaurant Chrissy & Mr Porter were waiting for Alex. Alex was feeling quite nervous but he knew what he had to do to put a stop to Chrissy.
"Bye guys. See you tomorrow" said Alex.
"See you later Alex. Remember the plan" said Elias.
All the kids went their separate ways & headed home. Angel & Elias discussed their hopes for their plan.
"I really hope this works out. The only way this plan can fail is if Chrissy notices the camera. She'll make sure to get rid of the evidence" said Angel.
"Just as long as we hide our phones in places she can't see them we'll be fine. Chrissy will be exposed & I'm going to make sure of it" said Elias.
At the restaurant Alex put his phone on a shelf which was out of Chrissy's view. After making sure the camera was on Alex prepared himself for what was to come.
"I'm not going to like this. Unfortunately this is the only way to prove that Chrissy has been abusing us. This better work" thought Alex as he walked away from the camera. The phone stayed on the shelf for the next several hours & recorded everything Alex & Chrissy did & said. Chrissy yelled at Alex, hit him, pushed him around & treated him like garbage. Eventually the abuse stopped. Just as Mr Porter was about to arrive home Alex grabbed his phone & stopped recording without letting Chrissy see him. After making sure that the video evidence was secure he went to bed. Meanwhile at the Vincent household all Elias could think of was how Alex was doing. As he ate his dinner he couldn't stop thinking about Chrissy & the abuse she was inflicting on him & the other kids.
"I hope Alex is holding up alright. It sucks that he has to endure this abuse but at least he's filmed Chrissy in the act. There's no way anyone will ignore the abuse after we show them what's been going on" thought Elias.
"Are you alright Elias?" asked Ella.
"Yes I'm alright. I just have a lot on my mind that's all" said Elias.
"Chrissy will be taking care of you tomorrow night. I hope you behave" said Ethan.
"I'll try. If you guys knew the truth it wouldn't be so complicated" said Elias.
After finishing dinner Elias sat in the lounge & watched TV. After a few hours of this he had a shower & went to bed.
"Hopefully tomorrow will be the last day Chrissy lays her filthy hands on me. That wicked witch won't get away with her cruel acts against children for much longer. Soon she'll be the most hated person in town. I hope that she either moves away or gets thrown out of town. I don't want her in my life any longer. She's hurt me & the other kids for the last time. Jake will probably end up dumping her too. That will be the best part of all of this. Watching her see everything fall apart in front of her will be spectacular. I hope I'm there to see the fallout" thought Elias as he fell asleep.
