Lester is a brown-colored fox with brown eyes. He wears a blue tie. He is a driving instructor. He taught Benny a few years ago.
Lester steps out of the sedan. He shouted something to Benny.

Benny: Okay. Which flavor?
Darkwave: Chocolate.
Benny: That’ll be two dollars.
He gave Benny the money, and Benny gave his cupcake to him. Darkwave ate his chocolate cupcake quickly.

Benny: Cheddar?

It’s late at night, and all of Benny’s neighbors and nearby residents go outside to take a look at what’s going on.
It looks like Darkwave is driving a sports car. His car is a dark purple-colored sports car. Darkwave is also wearing sunglasses.
His sports car has LED underglow lights. It’s cool and bright. He revs his engine and honks his horn. Then he makes a donut in the parking lot. Darkwave wants to show off his driving skills.
Doing donuts in a car is a driving skills trick. It’s a move that flaunts a driver's expertise by driving fast in circles while the vehicle's back tires are burning out.
Benny was shocked.
Benny: What the?
Darkwave cackled as he left.
