You, Leslie Young, have just retrieved the ancient staff of the island known as Barrio del Sol, met up with Mike, the man whose private jet crashed into the island, and are now going to sleep. Last night you dreamed of a memory from your childhood, and tonight you have another…
You were seven years old, and had just played Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" flawlessly. “How was that daddy?”
“It was the best thing I ever heard! You should be a professional piano player!”
“But I want to put the bad guys away like you do!”
“Okay, okay, but you might need to have a cover identity sometime.”
“What does that mean, a cover ‘idendiddy’?”
“A cover ‘identity’ is where you pretend to be someone else so you can get information to put the bad guys in jail.”
“Do you need a cover i-ten… i-dend… thingy?”
“Not now, but I have used one before, and I’ll probably have one another time. Now go get ready for dinner. We’re having pizza!”
“PIZZA!” Your dad, George Downs, always made the best pizza, better even than his Italian friends.
The phone rang, and George picked it up.
“It’s for you, ‘Princess’ Leslie. Don’t take too long or the pizza will be cold.” You took the phone.
“Hello?”
“Hi Leslie! I got something for you!” Maggie, now your friend in the police, always called you when a classmate’s pet was missing, lost a necklace, or something else like that. This memory is of something bigger though. “Did you hear that Steven isn’t gonna be coming to school for a while?”
“Yeah, 'cause of that injury, right?”
“Well, I overheard my daddy saying, ‘The kidnapped child is in my daughter’s class.' Don’t tell anyone I told you this, but I think that Steven is this kidnapped child.” You heard a door close on her end. “Okay, tomorrow is good, so I’ll clean my room now. Bye Leslie!” You realized something at that second. Your dad only made his pizza on special occasions, and there was nothing particularly special on that day.
“I LOVE this pizza, daddy!”
“Why thank you, Princess. I even remembered to put that special topping on for you.”
“… I heard that Steven was kidnapped.” George and your mom, Regina, froze up and put down their slices. “That’s why you made the pizza, isn’t it?”
Your mom put her hand on top of yours, and tried to comfort you. “We didn’t want to worry you, dear, but we want you to help, since you two are such good friends.”
“Okay. I’ll help. What do I need to do?”
Your dad put his hand over your free hand and looked into your eyes. “I need to know that you can handle the pressure of a real case before I let you help. I was surprised you actually told me you knew he was kidnapped. Maggie’s dad actually let her overhear about that, so she would tell you. That was step one, finding out about the kidnapping. Next is for you to find out where and when he was kidnapped. I already know, but you need to be able to find things out without my help. Tomorrow after school, I want you to start investigating.”
“Okay.”
The next day was a Friday, and school went as normal. The next week was spring break, and it gave you plenty of time to work on the case. After school, you started your investigation.
