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.

"Don't worry, Gunther. We'll find a way back home."
"No we can't! We're stranded! We have no money, no food! And to make even worse, we have no place to live!" Gunther yelled. Kick found $10,000 laying on the ground.
"We have money now."
"Whhat are we gonna do with it?" Gunther asked.
"We're gonna buy everything we
need to survive out there."
"You mean we're gonna-"
"We're gonna go home."
"I don't know about this Kick. I can already tell something bad's going to happen."
"Nothing bad's going to happen. Stop worrying so much."
"I always tell him something bad will
happen, but if course, he doesn't listen to me! Then something bad DOES happen!" Gunther mumbled, angry.

Gunther had emptied the whole bag of food and drinks on to his bed. What do you think he did? That's right, he went to the grocery store and tried to rob it (steal all of the Cheetah Chug). But something went wrong. Gunther didn't know they had a security system. Startled, he dropped the bag and ran out the door. He didn't get very far though.
Police men and their cars were waiting outside of the door.
"You're under arrest!" The cop said.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Gunther screamed.
"Get in the car." The cop said while putting hand cuffs on Gunther.
"I sure hope Kick finds me...." he thought in his mind.
Gunther didn't know this, but Kick saw the whole thing from their hotel window.
"I knew this would happen..." Kick mumbled, angry.
