But my eyes were caught at this particular topic... 'The Blue stone'.

"Wait, is this the stone which was stolen by Ashlene." I saw if Bess and George were awake. But they were asleep. So I didn't disturb them. And then I started reading the information. I was very keen to know about the stone more. And then I read further...

"This blue stone is very famous,..... and people make duplicate stone and sell it at high rates."

"What? Really? So can this stone be a duplicate one?" I asked myself and then hit my own head.

"Nancy why do you make things complicated.." I shouted to myself.

I read a lot and came to know many things. And then it was written, how can we find if the stone is real. I read the points one by one:
.
.

1. The Blue stone contains a shining piece inside it, which can't be seen by naked eyes. It could be only visible in darkness.

2. The stone shines only when it is kept under sunlight.

3. The stone neither floats nor sinks in the water. It just remains in the centre of the water.

4. When the stone is kept near the fire, it changes it colour from blue to green and then to purple.

Oh my!! I have to try this.. at least till my doubt is gone. It was late. So I went to sleep.

Next day...

"Bess , George.. get up you sleepy heads. It's a busy day for us." I shouted but they were still sleeping. And then I got an idea, to wake them up. I took two glasses of water on each hand and stood in between their beds and poured the water on their pretty little faces.

"Nancy... what the.. why did you pour the water on my face?" Bess barked at me. And George woke up frightened.

"What happened? Is there a tsunami? And where is Aaron?" George asked with a concern. And we both started laughing so loud that, Ned came to our room to check if we were fine.

"Girls are you alright? I heard a lot of sound. So I came running." Ned asked tensed.

"Ya .. we are absolutely fine." I said still laughing.

"Actually Miss George was dreaming about Mr. Aaron Marshall." Bess said laughing and then we all started laughing and teased her a lot.

"You people." George got up with a pillows and threw at us.

"So you want a pillow fight? " Ned asked looking at us. And then we did a pillow fight and went out after freshening ourselves.

I told them about what I found yesterday in that book. And they were ready to help me. I wrote the four clues on small paper , which were written in the book to find out if the stone is real.

And gave one paper each to Bess, George, Ned and one was with me.

"We will be in groups. Me and Ned one team. Bess and George one team. Ok? " I said to them.

"But why are we not going together? " Bess asked.

"Its because.. if we all are together.. then the people might have doubt on us.. So it's better to go in small groups.. And one more thing, George don't say this to Aaron." Ned said.

"Ok." George replied.

"Let's do it." And then we left for our mission.

At 9:00 am...

"First of all, how will we take the stone from there. There is a lot of security."

"Don't worry babes... what do u think I'm here only for eating.. I made a device which can go anywhere, without the people noticing it" George said showing us a small car like thing which had a camera fit on it.
