Julie began to awoke to her hands being tied to the back of a chair. As her eyes adjusted to the light she looked around and saw she was in some kind of lair with tons and tons of loot. She noticed five figures. It was The Bad Guys!

There was the leader, Mr.Wolf, the expert safecracker, Mr.Snake, The tech savvy hacker, Ms.Tarantula, the master of disguise, Mr. Shark, and the demolitionist. Mr.Piranha.

Wolf:Wakey Wakey, sleeping beauty.

Julie:What do you want?

Piranha:Ransom money. Duh.

Tarantula:I think she gets that.

Julie:Didn't think you guys were type to hold people for ransom.

Wolf:Eh, we decided to mix things up a bit, you know? So we're going to call your daddy and ask him for about...a couple thousand dollars.

Julie:He's not going to do it.

Shark:*Snickering* Why? Is he gonna bust in like an action movie star or something?

Julie:He doesn't care.

Wolf rolled his eyes and dialed Terrence's number. Terrance soon picked up.

Wolf:Hello, Mr.Smith.

Terrance:Who's this?

Wolf:Mr.Wolf of The Bad Guys.

Terrance:What do you want?

Wolf:We have your daughter. You can have her back for saaaayy...two thousand dollars.

Terrance:And that concerns me why?

Wolf was a little shocked by his response.

Wolf:Wha...this... is your daughter we're talking about here. I-

Terrence:She is worthless. Nothing but a waste of money. She can rot on the streets for all I care.

Wolf:How can you say that about your own kid?

Terrance:Keep her.

Wolf:But, she-

Terrence hung up.

Wolf was just shocked about what he said.

Snake:So, when is he coming with the money?

Wolf:He's not coming at all...he just...abandoned her...

Piranha spat out his drink

Piranha:WE DID THIS FOR NOTHING?!?!

Everyone gave him a small angry glare. Julie began tearing up a little.

Julie:*Sniff* I told you...he doesn't care.

Shark:What do you mean?

Julie:Ever since my mom died, he's treated me like I don't exist. I even tried to make friends and they said because I'm a raccoon, I'm noting but a thief and can't be trusted.*Sniff*

Wolf:...Snake. Let her go.

He untied her and she dropped to her knees and began to cry to herself. The Bad Guys huddled.

Tarantula:What are we going to do with this kid?

Snake:He daddy ditched her, so what? Why does that concern us?

Wolf:Snake, we may be bad guys, but we're not completely heartless. We could-

Julie:I want to join you.

The group turned around in shock and puzzlement.

Wolf:Come again?

Julie:Like I said, I've always been seen as a thief. If that's how everybody is going to see me, no point in trying to be anything else.

The group exchanged looks. Mr.Wolf grinned.

Wolf:Welcome to the team, kid.

Julie then suddenly hugged him.

Julie:...Thank you.
