Cornered at The Candy Shop

“Alright! Alright! I’ll talk!”
Butterfinger and I finally managed to get our Chunky friend to talk. He told us that TRP and his gang of candy capers were planning cause massive chaos at The Candy Shop. We had to get there quickly, before they turned the sugary citizens into nothing but a sticky mess.
The Candy Shop was an explosion of color and sweet smells that delighted the senses. We couldn’t let TRP turn this confectionery wonderland into a dreary wasteland!
We spotted TRP and his gang behind the counter tormenting a poor twizzler by tying him up in knots.
“Stop right there!”
TRP and his gang stopped surprised. His gang had grown. It now consisted of the Three Musketeers, the Pez heads, and now a whole handful of Jawbreakers!
Butterfinger quickly rescued the unfortunate twizzler, and rushed him over to a group of lifesavers to see if there was anything they could do to save him.
Meanwhile, my fellow detectives and I were about to face TRP and probably the toughest and ruthless gang of treats ever known!
