After the week of court and Zoe getting taken away, Mike was getting more lonely and lonely. He missed his dear Zoe alot. Zoe missed him too and she was getting abused again by her bad, scary and abusive parents.Zoe was getting hit again and abused and starved. Worst of all, her parents said since she stood up to that kidnapper she would be locked in the basement for 7 days a week! Mike always sent a letter to Zoe and she was living in Japan at that time. Anytime Zoe got a letter her parents ripped it up to show her how much they hated her and Mike. Zoe sometimes got out of the basement and always sat on the hill looking at the twinkling stars with her fox friend Trout because he loved fish. One day her parents caught her, and they grabbed her and locked her in the basement and also boarded up the windows in case she escapes.
