The Mystery of Madness,Chapter 6

The Mystery of Madness,Chapter 6:What Have You Done,Dunbar?
We had been searching for Aelita for a few days now.We were going nowhere.
(Jeremie is seen in a police uniform,and Odd leans against the Eiffel Tower)
Odd:Are you sure this plan will work?(the sound of a van is heard in the distance)
Jeremie:Trust me,Odd.It has to work.If it doesn't the PPG will get away with Yumi!(he holds a stop sign up,the black van comes to a screeching halt,Odd hides and sees from a distance)
William(PPG):Is there a problem officer?
Jeremie(deep voice):Yes,there is a problem.Driving any kind of car,van or truck near the Eiffel Tower is strictly prohibited.And I've heard a lot of rumors that someone has secretly been hiding dangerous chemicals in the trunk of their car.Mind if I have a look in there?
Xever:Go right ahead.We have nothing to hide.
This seemed too easy.Way too easy,I thought to myself.I looked in the trunk of their van,but I found nothing but a bunch of empty space.
Jeremie(muttering in normal voice):There's nothing there...How could this be poss...(the trunk doors are slammed shut)Hey,what's going on?!
Xavier: Don't try and fool us!We know that you're friends with Yumi and those punk boyfriends of hers!(the sound of a motorcycle is heard,Odd opens the trunk door and Jeremie is surrounded by the criminals,they see Ulrich ride in with William behind him)
Ulrich(taking off his helmet):End of the line,punks!(William takes off his as well)
William:Release Yumi or else!
Jeremie:William,Ulrich,how did you even get into this mess in the first place?(Yumi kicks open the door,and steps out)
Yumi:It's a long story.We'll explain it,if they allow us to that is.(Yumi ropes are untied by Ulrich)
Xever:Should we let them explain boss?
William(PPG):Why not?It'll be interesting...
One long story later...
Jeremie:So let me get this straight;due to William's bad judgement,you went down a New York City alley,where the criminals saw you.Then William tried to beat them,failed,but you managed to escape,and presumed they were arrested.Next,they disguised themselves as locals of Louisiana,paid for your trip back home,got William drunk and tricked Ulrich just so that they could kidnap Yumi?
Ulrich: Pretty much,except for the fact that I was leery of the locals.I didn't figure out who they really were until it was too late.
William:Are you upset?
Jeremie:William,you should have known better.New York City is crawling with criminals like these!And alleyways like the one you met these guys in is like their turf!William,I never thought I'd say this,but you've acted like such a blockhead!This whole mess could of been prevented if you didn't suggest the idea of going down that alley!William Dunbar,I never thought I'd say this,but this mess is all,your,fault!!!
Odd:What have you done,Dunbar?What have you done?
William:I can't believe it...He's right..(he hangs his head in shame)What have I done?
William(PPG,laughing):Alright.Now that the explanation and scolding are done and over with,we'll give you our ultimatum;surrender Yumi and give her to us,or we will take her by force and kill all of you.
I knew we needed a plan,but I suddenly couldn't think of one.It was William's fault we got into this mess,and I was still mad at him...What were we gonna do?
