Trey and Jack was trying to wake Donovan up.

"While those two try to wake up your friend let's start some. Tell me who idea was it to start snooping?" King Jonathan said.

"It was princess Gabriella's idea. She found her mother's diary." I said.

"A diary started all of this." He said.

"In a way it did. She found out that her mother had a stalker and that he followed her all the way to Texas." I said.

"Did you know any of this Maxwell?" King Jonathan asked.

"No I didn't. Nina wouldn't talk to anybody after Maximilian died." He said. He turned to look back at us.

"Then what happened." King Jonathan said.

"She read her journal and we made the connection that she was Lionel Amador granddaughter. We told her that he was in prison and she wanted to go see him. I took her to go see him and they talked. That's how she found out that everyone turned into wolves. After that she wanted to find out more about her grandmother's death. She was more interested in finding out her mother's past so we took her to the library to search through the yearbooks. She found pictures of her parents together with her aunt and uncle. She was led to believe her aunt and uncle didn't know her mother when they adopted her. After the truth came out on her birthday she wanted to look into the death of her father, mother, and grandmother." I said.

"So all of you went along no questions asked." He said.

"She was our friend and needed help and we were curious as well." Savannah said. The king looked at her and she went to hide behind Emily.

"You were hoping to become famous for solving two murders." He said.

"We weren't looking to become famous. We were helping a friend find out who killed her parents and why." Emily said.

"Who's idea was it to steal from the police department?" He said.

"Again that was Gabriella's. She believed if we looked at them we could have found something that was missed. She was right." I said.

"How come you didn't tell any adult about this?" The king?" He said.

"Who would have believed eight teenagers who accuse the mayor for murder. We didn't have enough proof to show only a diary and photos." I told him.

"What turned it around to suspect Marcus?" King Jonathan asked.

"After Britney apologized for her outburst at the birthday party. She told us how Marcus always talked about Gabriella and had a file on her. She told us that she seen it in his office." I said.

"How did you come to get these pictures Maxwell showed me." He said.

"On Halloween, Britney told us the code to get into the safe. That night we sneaked into his house to find his office." I said.

"I was told that one of the guards found you, but what took you so long." He said. We remained quiet. I looked at Spencer. She was shaking her head begging me not to say anything. Trey and Jack was still trying to wake Donovan up but they were both waiting to hear what I was going to say.

"Maybe they decided to confide in him. Maybe the guard was easy to talk too. Plus he was guarding the princess so either way the guard couldn't say anything because the princess requested it. Don't we have to trust the guards in order for them to protect us Jonathan." Rachael said.

"Even so but my brother writes the checks." he said.

"True but to be able to trust your security you have to confide in him and hope he keeps your secrets." She said. King Jonathan was quiet for a moment. There was a commotion behind me.
