Reyona’s Revenge

Dance Of Lies



While their lawyers handled the media outfits and the latter scrambled to save their skins, Maxwell and Reyona dealt with the family whose adoptive sons had almost drowned Allysyn because she was trying to protect her brother.

Of course, the kids had denied it, and they were vehemently backed by the Sanstons, who even had the guts to demand that they should be compensated for defamation and affecting the boys’ mental health.

They threatened to go to public with the case if they were not compensated.

After all, they had also seen Maxwell and Reyona on the news, and they believed they wouldn’t want another scandal.

They didn’t expect the couple to call their bluff.

Right before they presented the evidence that had been gathered against the boys and Sanston themselves.

The good boys are not only brothers but lovers too.

One major spice of their relationship was playing with smaller boys.

They would lure the innocent boys into their room or the fort that they had in the woods close to their house.

That was where they would have their ways with the boys and then threaten them not to talk.

That was the kind of big brothers the Lanoth siblings were unfortunate to have for the short period that almost claimed Allysyn’s life.

The boys had always wanted to lure Junior to the fort but Allysyn, who must have suspected something, was always on hand to dissuade Junior from going.

Ally also told them when she was relaying the ordeal that she told Junior to not let the big brothers touch him in certain ways.

Surprisingly, Junior was obedient to Allysyn despite their frequent spats, so whenever the boys tried to take him away with them or touched him inappropriately, he would shout “Ally said you shouldn’t touch me like that!”

Then he would start screaming for her or just run off to join her.

The Sanstons boys must have been frustrated by her intrusion and the way she was stopping their intent.

Conveniently, they learned that the kids can’t swim and that must have given them the perfect idea of doing away with the pests in their lives forever, so they could have their way.

They didn’t know that Junior had followed them when they grabbed Allysyn out of bed that night when their parents were out of the house.

They sneaked into the closed community pool park while holding the struggling Allysyn between them.

Then they threw her into the pool, believing nobody would come along to save her until morning.

Reyona could still remember when they were asking Junior about what happened.

The only time she had seen the boy upset talking about the event was when he said loudly “They were laughing and laughing. Ally was in the big water… the… the… pool but they were laughing. Bad people!”

Then he remembered how he had begged Allysyn to wait for him, and he ran around until he got a passing mailman to save Allysyn.

The boys left her there and went home like nothing happened.

They expected Junior to still be asleep in bed as they left him before.

The mailman made the mistake of carrying Allysyn home instead of straight to a hospital, and he met the Sanstons, who were just coming back from a club.

They dismissed him, and they eventually took the convulsing Allysyn to the hospital with the tale that she wanted to commit suicide by drowning herself.

It was soon discovered that the kindergarten where the boys volunteered, the playgrounds and even their church were the boys’ favourite prey grounds.

The two Lanoth kids had just been home games and had walked right into their den.

The investigators Maxwell had on the case while the Sanstons were doing their dance of lies did a thorough job, and they were even able to get a few kids whom they recorded, and their furious parents promised to have them on standby if witnesses were needed.

By the time the investigation was done, there were a considerable number of parents who were ready to have the boys and their parents’ heads, but they only held on because Maxwell and Reyona asked them to and on a promise that they would eventually have justice.

One other undoing of the boys was that they believed that the CCTV camera at the community centre was not working.

And it had been faulty for years but, unknown to them, new cameras were installed a week before.

Just in time to capture them as they carried a struggling girl in and left without her minutes ago while thumping themselves on the back and making crude jokes.

Han and Miss Macaulay were appalled by all the evidence that Maxwell and Reyona had been able to gather in the short period that the Sanston were prancing and declaring how much they had done for the state and other children.

The Sanstons started singing different songs when they realised that their secrets were fully out.

They started pointing fingers and blaming each other.

That was when Reyona and Maxwell realised that their initial suspicions were right after all.

The Sanstons knew about the boy’s dirty acts, yet they didn’t dare to stop them.

It was in juvenile court that the truth came out.

The elderly Sanstons were involved in money laundering and pimping.

The boys learned about it and had a deal with the couple that they wouldn’t tell on each other.

When the heavy evidence and the collection of angry parents against the boys at the juvenile court made it clear to them that they were not going anywhere anytime soon, the sixteen-year-old boy figured there was no point in keeping the Sanstons’ secrets anymore.

After all, they had also failed to protect them as they promised.

He outed them and the Sanstons were arrested right there and then to be held for further investigation.

No one in that court that day doubted that the Sanstons would be going away for a long, long time though.

The explicit, confident descriptions of the boys, the fear and shrieking denial from Mrs Sanston were damning enough.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

The boys were given five years imprisonment each for all the atrocities they had committed in the neighbourhood and the Sanston’s properties were to be confiscated and sold to be paid for the medical examination and therapy that the victims would have to go through.

The seventeen-year-old would spend one year in the juvenile correctional centre before being moved to a proper prison, while the sixteen-year-old would spend two years in a different centre before being sent to prison.

Even before the case of their crime is settled, the Sanstons already have eight years in prison without parole waiting for them because of their involvement in the boys’ atrocious actions.

Reyona was more than relieved that the likes of the Sanstons would never be in charge of another innocent child again for as long as they lived.

Their cases were also broadcast to serve as a lesson to foster parents who might be hiding under the guise of being upright citizens to commit atrocities.

Allysyn also didn’t mind seeing a therapist.

Junior got a kick out of going to see a mind reader!

Despite their explanation, that was his interpretation of what the therapist would be doing.

On the day of their first session, he could be seen bouncing from foot to foot excitedly as he called to Allysyn.

“Ally, be fast. We shouldn’t keep the mind reader waiting!”
