9:34 P.M.

The sound of a car horn caught Peyton's ears and she looked outside to see a large black car parked outside.
Elisa headed outside to greet the driver of the car and showed him inside.
Peyton looked up to see Elisa with another man standing next to her.
"Peyton, this is my brother Derick." Elisa introduced. "He'll be looking after you till we find your parents.."
"Uh…nice to…nice to meet you Mr. Maza.." Peyton said shyly and held out her hand for him to shake.
Derick bent down to her level and shook her hand.
"Call me Derick." he said gently. "You must be the little girl my big sister told me about, Peyton right?"
"Yeah.." Peyton said.
"Well c'mon," he said to Peyton. "Hop in my car I'll take you back to your place.."
Peyton was always cautious with strangers but if a relative was a cop was safe enough, what choice did she have? Right?
"O-OK.." she said shyly taking Derick's hand as they headed out of the police station and into the car.
They drove off.
The sound of Peyton's growling stomach caught Derick's ear, as the car came to a red light, Derick stopped the car and turned around to see Peyton looking out the window, looking almost asleep and her stomach growling in hunger.
"Don't you worry 'bout a thing Pey, we'll get you back with your folks soon…" Derick said trying to reassure the seven year old. "Alright?"
Peyton looked up at Derick.
"OK.." she sighed quietly.
"Have you eaten dinner yet?" Derick asked her. "You look hungry.."
"No." Peyton replied. "We were supposed to go to Steak N' Shake after they came back from shopping.."
She then asked snakingly, "C-Can we go?"
"Sure kiddo.." Derrick replied. "We'll grab a bite and then I'll take you back to your place.."
Peyton smiled at Derick and remained quiet throughout the ride.

Peyton had a feast that night.
She was so full after eating at Steak N' Shake, she felt like she had ate a whole Disneyland turkey leg in one bite.
Peyton gulped down her Western BBQ 'N Bacon Steakburger with Salt 'N Vinegar fries and gulped down her large Sprite before she slurped down her Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip milkshake and ate her entire Oreo Ice Cream Sandwich.
She ate so much that night, that she ALMOST fell asleep during the card ride back to her apartment.
Once she and Derick arrived at Peyton's apartment, Derick began to set up the couch bed for himself while Peyton went up to her room and laid out her clothes for the next school day, fed her pet frog Seymour like she did in the morning before school, gathered her PJ's, her Power Rangers bathrobe and all her bath toys and headed towards her bathroom. It was like her parents bathroom but only with ocean themed stencils on the walls.
Peyton took off her clothes and took out her sweaty school uniform out of her duffle bag and dropped them in her laundry basket that had a picture of Snoopy and Carlie Brown on it. Once that was done, she put on her frog themed shower cap, turned on the water in her bathtub till it was at a warm enough temperature, poured in a capful of her Batman themed bubble bath mix, plopped all her bath toys inside the tub and hopped in the tub herself and began her bath.
(30 minutes later…after washing herself that is)
"Aye out there! You'll pay for capturing the parents of one-eyed Gordon!"
Captain One-eyed Gordon (AKA: Peyton) sailed a huge pirate ship over a foamy sea. Two submarines accompanied her. A purple and yellow submarine with a giant red wheel on her left and the Beetles own yellow submarine on her right and scattered around the ship were a giant great white shark and little great white sharks. On the ship were a suba diver, Raphael from the Ninja turtles (the 1987 version) and young Simba.
"Sargent!" One-eyed Gordon called out to the Scuba Diver, "Dive down there and see if you's can find him.."
Sargent the Scuba Diver did a military solute before leaping off the ship and diving into the foamy water.
"Raphael, Simba….Keep a sharp eye out for 'im…You'll never know when-"
One-Eyed Gordon's orders were interrupted by the sounds of bubbling that was coming from the water.
"Simba mate.." One-Eyed Gordon asked. "Was that you?"
Simba's ears drooped before he backed away behind Raphael. One-Eyed Gordon looked at the red-banned turtle before he shook his head no. One-Eyed Gordon looked at the water again before a giant black figure rose up out of the water and roared.
One-Eyed Gordon gasped before she said, "The Dark Duck.."
The Dark Duck roared again, water was spewing out of its beak.
"LOWER THE LIFE SHARKS! TURTLES AND LIONS FIRST!" One-Eyed Gordon called out.
Raphael and Simba jumped onto the little great white sharks with One-Eyed Gordon following behind them on the giant great white shark.
She took out her trusty fishing rod with angry magnetic fish and led her and her crew mates towards the Dark Duck.
"You three maties take out the tail. The rest of him is mine!" One-Eyed Gordon ordered.
The crew mates did a solute before they headed for the Dark Duck's tail.
One-Eyed Gordon attached one of her angry magnetic fish onto her lucky fishing rod and lassoed it onto the Dark Duck's neck and pulled the rod hard as she let out a battle cry…
…..
Derick pulled back the Lion King shower curtain to find…
"Pey?"
Peyton looked up at Derick with wide cerulean blue eyes.
Inside the bubble filled tub was a toy fishing rod with magnetic fish, a wind-up scuba diver toy, two toy submarines, a Ninja Turtles bath toy, a cub Simba bath toy, rubber toy great white sharks (one giant and five small ones) and a Batman themed rubber duck floating around and covered with suds.
"What are you doin' in there?" Derick asked.
Peyton let out a grin showing her chipped top front tooth and her gap in her tooth on the right side on the top teeth.
"J-Just…washin' my b-bath toys is all.." she smiled widely.
Derick just raised a brow of confusion.

After her pirate bathtub adventure, Peyton drained the bathtub water and rinsed off the suds from the tub, dried herself off with her Aladdin themed towels and brushed her teeth with her white and green tooth brush and her Bugs Bunny wild berry flavored toothpaste. She then proceeded to brush her hair again and put on her bandana, her green PJ's with little coral snapdragons on them and headed back to her room.
She turned on Seymour's heating lamp for the evening, turned on her green and teal lava lamp, grabbed her Rugrats themed backpack to prepare her books and supplies for the following day, and grabbed one of her books she was reading that was saved with one of her Goosebumps themed bookmarks, fixed her bed by pulling back her blue blanket that was under her light purple comforter, placed all the plushies she had on random spots of the bed.
Before she could crawl into bed and turn off the lights, she dug into her tire shaped toy box and grabbed a plush frog by its arm.
You see, she has a lot of cute plush toys she got for either Christmas or her birthday by her aunts, and uncles and cousins and some from her parents, but the stuffed frog she got from her mom and dad on her first birthday was special….she took it everywhere with her, she took it on trips, to the park, to the supermarket and other places, that plush frog never left her sight and since this was a crucial time for Peyton because it reminded her of her missing parents. She picked up the plush frog from her tire shaped toy box, smiled at it and hugged it tight before she placed next to her side of the bed.
Peyton climbed into bed and turned off her outer space themed lamp, leaving the room glowing, curtesy of her glow in the dark planet stencils on her ceiling, her glow-in-the-dark planet mobile hanging over her desk and her green and teal lava lamp.
But, Peyton wasn't ready to go to bed just yet. She turned on her teal reading lamp that was on her bedside table and opened up to where she left off in 'A Journey to the Center of the Earth' and began reading, with her stuffed frog by her side.
A couple of hours later, she fell asleep whilst she was finishing up chapter 10.

Supermarket, Central Park

Elisa, Matt and a few other cops were searching the supermarket where Peyton's parents were heading.
"Not a trace.." Elisa said in frustration. "…Not even a clue.."
"Maza!" Matt called out.
Elisa walked outside to an alley where Matt was. He was holding open a door to an abandon warehouse.
"You might wanna look at this, and it ain't lookin' good.." Matt said in a sort of worried tone.
Elisa slowly walked into the warehouse, she found a cloak covering two large lumps inside. Elisa carefully pulled open the cloak only to find a limp hand of a woman and a limp foot of a man. She let out a gasp and pulled the cloak only to reveal two limp bodies, their pale skins were covered in blood.
One was a woman with freckles on her cheeks, her red hair was in a bun and she was wearing a bit of light pink lipstick, a yellow necklace around her neck, a purple shirt, a long coral skirt, and light coral flats and the other was a man with freckles on his cheeks, he had brown hair and he was wearing a black tie, a khaki shirt, navy blue pants and gray and white sneakers.
Elisa said to Matt in an almost whispered tone, "I think we found them…"
