"Alright, you know the plan?" Lucy asked.

"Kinda," Lana replied.

Lucy pushed Lana into the house. She clung onto a net like it was her favorite doll. Sweat dripped down her face. She knew that Lucy was right behind her, but what if it didn't work? What if she got captured? She reached the kitchen door and froze. She could hear the sea monsters. She had to be brave and go into the kitchen with the very big, very scary, sea monsters.

"Lana? Do you need some help?" Lucy asked.

Lana jumped. She had forgotten that Lucy was there. She turned around to face Lucy.

"Yeah..." Lana trailed off.

"I hear those sea monsters can be real scary!" Someone said from behind Lucy.

"Lana, did you say that?"

Lana shook her head no, eyes wide open and staring behind Lucy.

"I shouldn't turn around, should I?"

"yep." Lana squeaked out. "Just run."

 They both ran for their lives. They turned the hallway and went up the ladder leading to the attic. they sat as still as a seashell. They heard the sea monster creep down the hall.

"new plan--"

"no more plans. Just fight." Lana said like an action hero.

"That wasn't a very good hero voice."

"shush! here he comes!"

They peeked over the trap door.

"Now!"

Nets and girls landed on the stunned sea monster.

"What are you girls doing? get off of me!" A very much not sea monster said.

There was no sea monster in sight.

"Who are you and what are you doing in my aunt's house?" Lucy said.

"I'm here to replace your aunt's fridge."

"But, we saw a sea monster grabbing the fridge in the kitchen!" Lana stuttered.

"She didn't tell you she was getting a new fridge? Tough luck, kid."

"oh, that must have been it..." Lana muttered.

"Sigmund!" Lucy shouted.

The girls leaped off the mover and ran outside to check the shed. the door was ajar. They checked inside, but no Sigmund was to be found.

"What's Going on? where's Sigmund?" Lucy asked.

"you're acting really weird." The mover said, coming out of nowhere. "We're gonna be moving heavy stuff so you should probably go to your room."

They walked flabbergasted to their room. How could this have happened? Sigmund couldn't just dissappear, right? And even so the door was locked! How could this have happened?
