Music playing: Te Atarau by MOHI
The knock at the door was a few of the newspaper clubs people and Natalia. Ruby and Robby bought in snacks and Natalia bought in drinks, followed by Mike.
They made theirselves at home in the lounge and started connecting dots and information, "Don't worry Mulan, Natalia filled us all in on what to do, we got you",
"In case anyone is wondering, the toilet is just down the hall, on the left", Daisy said,
"Thank you", everyone had said in unison,
"Oh, and please don't mind our dog Kylo, just give her a few pats and she will happily leave you alone",
"You know we are grounded and shouldn't have anybody coming over right now, right ladies?", Stacey chimed in.
"Yes, but this is important, especially for Lili",
"For all of us actually, I just found out that this is connected to all of us, where is the photo Lil's", I took Natalia to the photo.
"I knew it, the connection everything",
"Here, this is a small group that believed in wolves, they practically call themselves Guardians of the moon, they happen to have been around for centuries. However, it was shut down during the witching period. Then a small group your mum, my dad, and Daisys dad included and a few other men and women there eight of them and they had a secret group, there were four books included each of them were a couple, or should I say this like in a relationship. Besides that, there are two more books we need in order to find out where their club",
"Wait a second my dad and her mum were a part of this?", Daisy asked,
"Yes and the book she found happens to be his, read the initials on the inside, I did some digging and only your name matched, the other one I believed belonged to another couple",
"Yeah we found out that the person left that book there roughly five years ago",
"Mhm, this one was left there around fifteen years ago, roughly when my dad died",
"Sorry for your loss, but...it means the other two books are placed within our town and if I read the clues from this book.",
"We kind of tried to figure out where it might take us",
"Nice work team",
"Anyway, the thing is-"
The door had a knock on it and Mike opened the door,
"Damn I thought it was our pizza order, it's just Spencer",
"I came baring gifts",
He placed a bag of goodies on the table and Mike including Robby were the first to dig around in its contents.
Spencer came over to us and Stacey filled him in, then he came closer to me and gave me a Dubai chocolate.
I half thanked him and watched steadily of what Natalia was doing, she started making marks on the towns map and then read the notes.
"If this is the next clue then it will lead us to another painting where we would find the next clue for the next book, correct?",
"Correct, but its finding out where that is",
"I know that, it's the towns hall, there is a painting that sits behind the piano, the one with the town hall and people in front of it",
"Oh, my god, its been there the whole time",
"Great lets all head there, its not too dark and we can be back in time for when your mum gets back",
"She doesn't get back until",
Everyone said "11pm", in unison,
"Don't worry everyone knows the back up plan, the newspaper clan are going to keep watch here",
"Besides someones gotta wait for the pizza order",
With that, Natalia, Daisy, Stacey and I were all squished comfortably in Spencers truck, we took Kylo with us and headed to the towns hall for the next book.
I gave the blue leathered journal to Daisy "I feel like this should belong to you, it's your dads", I said,
"Thanks cousin",
"We're here",
When we hopped out, Daisy gave me a quick hug from giving her that book. We made our way over to the towns hall and we had to sneak in.
"If we're lucky we might be able to avoid the towns security altogether, he approximately does his round roughly in ten minutes. So, that should be enough time for us to get in and get out."
Stacey stayed in the truck with Kylo, while the rest of us readied ourselves. I felt so nervous, who knew if this third book we would find would lead us to get the next clues we need.
So, we followed after Daisy who picked the locks, Spencer did a high-five to her and I was astounded that my cousin knew how to do that.
"My mum often forgot to leave her bedroom unlocked now and then",
We made our way through the main entrance and then down the hall to the left, was the hall where everyone in town gathers for meetings and queries. I, took in the empty hall, it felt weird seeing it this way, the only time I ever saw this place was when it was always filled with people seated or some people standing and waiting for news or updates from the towns Mayor and the Sheriff.
I saw the painting, "We will keep watch, while you two quickly grab the book", said Natalia,
Daisy stayed back with her and stood by the door, Spencer and I made our way closer to where the stage was.
He lifted me onto the stage without a second thought, and then jumped up behind me. I didn't even think about it all, and then headed to where the piano is.
"There, the painting", I half whispered to him,
"Here goes nothing city girl", he pulled the painting off of the wall, then as we had anticipated, we both saw the book it was a silver leathered diary.
"Someones coming", I heard Natalia speak,
We quickly put the painting away and then made our way to them.
"Guys did you get the book",
"Yes", we both said in unison.
"Alright we need a plan and fast",
"Are you sure someone is there",
"Yes",
We all heard the horn sound from outside, "Shit", Spencer said "That's my truck",
What are we going to do now?, I thought
