Chapter 8: The First Letter
Dear Jess and Gunther,
Today we traveled through Oregon, we came up with an idea, we should wreck every capital of every state. clever huh? I have been telling Scarlet all about you Jess, she would love to meet you one day. When I come back I swear I will introduce you two. How has Gunther been holding up? We are on our way to Washington, I guess I will write back when we get there. I miss you too.
-Kick
Dear Kick,
Gunther's been fine, he's been sleeping over at my house for a while, and he wouldn't go to school the first day you left. But other than that, he's just fine. I would love to meet Scarlet one day. How has your collarbone been treating you? I hope it's been better. It's a late school night. Remember, there's no place too far for me to find you.
-Jess
She put her pencil down. "Kick left Gunther and I, the family, school....everything. For this girl. Scarlet. They must......love.....each other." she wanted to tear the letter,the anger boiled in the back of her mind. "what am I thinking?! I don't miss him, we are just friends, and that's all it's ever gonna be!" she slammed the stamp onto the envelope.

Kick was preparing for one of his stunts.
"I don't know about this Kick..." Gunther said, worried.
"Oh please, Gunther. What could possibly go wrong?" Gunther had an extremely worried look on his face. Kick was about to bolt down a huge ramp, over a pit full of toxic waste and extremely hungry grizzly bears.
"Where do you even get this stuff from?" Gunther asked, confused. Kick didn't reply. Just after Gunther asked, Kick darted down the ramp, not with enough speed. Something went horribly wrong.
"Kiiiiiiick!" Gunther yelled, timid.

"Hey, Kick! Do you wanna head down to Food'n'Fix and see what's new?" Gunther asked.
"No, that's a terrible idea, Gunther. Let's head down to Food'n'Fix and see what's new."
"Okay, good idea! Why didn't I think of that?" When they got to Food'n'Fix, they were a little disappointed.
"Hey, it's danger dude and the wing man! What can I do ya for?"
"Wade, give us all the Cheetah Chug you got." Kick said.
"I'm sorry, danger dude, someone keeps stealing it. It's all gone."
"How could this happen? How could someone do such a thing? I'm gonna go nuts without Cheetah Chug. NOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Gunther yelled, panicking.
"Everything's gonna be okay, Gunther. So, do you have video cameras here or anything that could catch the culprit?"
"Uuuuuhhhhhhhh........ actually yeah, there's one over there. But that's it. It stopped working a few years ago."
"Gunther, do you still have your power tools?" Kick asked.
"Of course!"
"Gunther, we're gonna install new cameras."
"No, that's a terrible idea, Gunther. Let's head down to Food'n'Fix and see what's new."
