Lamont went over to Brad’s house before school so he could pick up the project they both worked on. However when he got there he saw the place surrounded by Police. He said a quick prayer, and ran to the front door.</P> <P>"What happened?" he asked.</P> <P>Brad’s sister said, "Brad is dead.</P> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P><I>The sound of death is near. One by one the former L-team is being wiped out. Can this case be solved, or will the small city of Vandalia unravel? There is trouble with a capital K, and our heroes will never be the same again.</P> <P>Figure It Out; you only think you know.</P> </I> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P>At school later that day, Lamont and his friends were having a meeting again.</P> <P>"I can’t believe he’s dead," Jamie said.</P> <P>Lamont said, "We got to find out who this person is."</P> <P>Roger said, "Lamont is right, we don’t know if this is our enemies plotting revenge or just a psycho human on a killing spree. Either way, our old enemies could return at anytime while we are weak like this and finish us off."</P> <P>Lamont said, "Roger is right, we need to protect at least two of us in case anything happens. And as leader I’ll make the descion. Roger and Amanda you two will go. We will create clones of ya, and you two will hide out at the old Railroader’s headquarters. Report back here at same time tomorrow."</P> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P>Later that day, Zach Atkinson and Jamie Moore announced that their anniversary was today.</P> <P>Jamie Pounds said, "Wow I can’t believe it was three years ago that you two got together."</P> <P>Zach said, "Ya, we had our first date at Taco Bell."</P> <P>"It was at McDonalds." Jamie said.</P> <P>They started yelling and finally they said, "We are breaking up."</P> <P>Lamont said, "This is as bad as when Andros was jealous of Zhane."</P> <P>Jamie Pounds said, "Who’s that?"</P> <P>Lamont said, "Never mind."</P> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P>Meanwhile, in a room inside the school someone had mixed Carbon Monoxide with wax, and had created a candle. Then he wrapped it up, and addressed it to Zach and Jamie.</P> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P>Lamont had got Jamie and Zach to the Music room at Butler to talk out their problems.</P> <P>Jamie said, "Nothing is going to fix this thing."</P> <P>Zach said, "That’s right, but we’ll break up tomorrow, and finish this day."</P> <P>Lamont said, "Ok, it’s your choice."</P> <P>Just then Nathan Cleaver delivered a package to the room. He said, "Someone just dropped this package off. The card said to these two of my friends on this anniversary." Then he left.</P> <P>Lamont opened the package and saw the candles. "Here ya go."</P> <P>Jamie said, "Will you light it for us?"</P> <P>Lamont said, "Sure." He lights the candle and left the room.</P> <P>The two ex-couple sat down in chairs staring at the candle and talked about what went wrong with them.</P> <P>A few hours later, Lamont and Amanda Goings walked in the music room to practice a duet, and found Zach Atkinson and Jamie Moore dead.</P> <P>Amanda rushed to the bodies to see what happened, while Lamont slowly walked to the ½ burned candle and blew it out. Then he took a deep breath and turned it over. On the bottom of it were a picture fragment and the calling card of the killer. He threw the candle to the ground and turned to face the wall. A single tear fell down his cheek and hit the ground. "Who is doing this?"</P> <P>Meanwhile in the shadows, Eric Griffith, ex-L-team Promoter was laughing with another kid. "I took care of Brad Bergman before, and I’ll take care of Lamont too."</P> <h3><center>Figured it out yet</center></h3> <P><p><center>~*~</center></p></P> <P><i>Next time, getting over this latest death, leaves our heroes distracted and not prepared for what comes next.
