The Police finally arrived.

"So what happened?" said the officer.

"We were in the house and then we heard him screaming," Olivia explained.

"Okay," said the officer.

"Well, this house is a little haunted, so.."

"So what?" said Olivia.

The officer was writing down notes in his book he had and didn't finish the sentence.

"Something strangled a man and killed him!" she said.

The officers searched through everything in their car since they hadn't packed anything.

After the talk, they took the body away on the cart.

"Oh my god," said Emily.

"We just got here," she said.

"We are gonna need you guys to go to the police station for questioning," said the police officer.

"So, you don't believe us?" asked Olivia.

"We do, but we just need you guys to meet the mayor of the town."

"Oh okay?" said Olivia.

"You're not going, only your mother and father. It's private," they said.

"Mom?" she said.

"Sorry honey," said Emily.

"How is it private if you guys are getting questioned?" asked Olivia.

"Uhh," the police tried to explain.

"It just is," Emily finished.

"If we can't go with you guys, then where are we going?' Oliver asked.

"You're going to stay with 'the Harvards'" said the officer.

"The harvards?" Oliver said.

"What kind of last name is that? Ain't that a college?" he chuckled to himself.

"We will come pick you guys up after our business meeting," said David.

"Oh so now it's a business meeting?" asked Olivia.

"Olivia, be good for us," said Emily, dodging the question she asked.

Then they got in the police car.

"Okay, love you," said the twins, waving goodbye.

The twins waited in the house for the other police to pick them up.

Their parents got in the police car and drove away to their different destination.

"Do you have that see-through camera that Logan gave to you?" she asked.

"Yes, why do you need it?" he asked.

"I want to see something," she said.

"Okay," said Oliver. He pulled it out of his backpack and gave it to her. Olivia ran to the attic as Oliver chased her.

"What are you doing?" he said.

She wouldn't respond. She looked at the wooden box. It was like it called her.

"What are you doing? We can't look at the painting!" Oliver exclaimed.

"I'm not," Olivia said, still looking at the wooden box.

"The rule said 'Don't open the box,'" he said.

"I'm not," she said. She took a picture of the box and looked at it.
