Gilbert replied and Lynda smiled. "How's Veronica?" Lynda asked with a frown. "Good, I guess." Gilbert replied. "Are you guys still fighting?" Lynda asked. "No, surprisingly." Gilbert replied and Lynda nodded. "Are you happy?" Lynda asked. Gilbert looked at her in the eyes and ger heart skipped a beat, which it never does with Veronica. But before Gilbert could say anything, Marvin walked out of the station.    "Lynda! We have a case." Marvin stated and Lynda nodded. "Get in my car, I'll drive." Lynda stated and Marvin got in. "I have to go. I'll talk to you later." Lynda stated and Gilbert nodded. "I'll see you later then." Gilbert stated with a smirk and Linda's heart skipped a beat.

       They got to Great Scarif Reef and parked the boat. They grabbed their suitcases and jumped in the water and started swimming to Lagoona's house as fast as they can.
      They finally got there and knocked. Lagoona's mom opened the door. "Mom!" Lagoona exclaimed with a smile. "Lagoona!" Lana exclaimed as she hugged her. "Gil. Kala. It's good to see you guys again." Lana greeted. "You too." Gil agreed and Lana let them in. "Dad!" Lagoona exclaimed with a smile.    "Lagoona!" Lucas exclaimed and they hugged. "Gil. Kala." Lucas greeted. "Good to see you." Kala stated with a smile. "So, Kelpy really was kidnapped?" Lagoona asked and the room went silent. "Yes." Lucas replied and Lagoona held back tears. "We'll find her." Lagoona reassured with determination. "It's dangerous, though." Lana stated. "I know. But I have been up against plenty of dangerous people in the past and in still here. I'm okay and I have help. Doing it along would be dangerous and stupid." Lagoona stated and they nodded. Lagoona was planning on getting her sister back, no matter what it takes.

      Lynda and Marvin got to Mr. Gold's shop and walked in with the ring of the bell. "Ah. You're here." Mr. Gold stated. "Yes. You said there was a break in?" Lynda asked. "Yes. I had a very important book. I kept it in a safe and now it's gone. But they must have been great lock pickers because there's no sign of break in." Mr. Gold explained. "May we look around?" Marvin asked. "Go right ahead." Mr. Gold replied and they started looking around his shop.
      Hanna ran into Daisy's room and closed the door. "I don't have time for this kid, I have to go to work." Daisy stated. Mr. Gold, he called the police about the break in and now Lynda and Marvin are over there." Hanna explained and Daisy gasped. "I knew that was a bad idea." Daisy stated. "Do you still have the book?" Hanna asked and Daisy nodded. "But I'm not sure about the curse " Daisy stated. "What? Why?" Hanna asked. "He needed the heart of the think he loves most and you said he loves me most. That would mean, if this curse really happened, then I would be dead." Daisy explained. "That's what we haven't figured out, yet. He somehow found a loophole." Hanna stated and Daisy sighed. "Just, keep the book safe." Hanna stated. "I don't want to get in trouble." Daisy stated and Hanna sighed. "Fine. Give me the book." Hanna stated and Daisy sighed. Daisy went in her undrr garmets draw and pulled out the book and handed it to Hanna. "I have to go." Daisy stated and left. Hanna sighed and left to hang with Tamora.
