Ch. 3 The Louvre

At the Louvre Kevin said, "Whoa!" almost bumping into a sculpture.
The sculpture was crafted from white marble, and it was a woman with two amputated arm limbs.
Katie whispered to Kevin, "Let's go to where the Mona Lisa used to be displayed. This statue is creepy."
 Kevin replied, "Yeah, the Venus de Milo is creepy. I really have no idea why Alexandros of Antioch, whoever that artist is, made it."

The two curious twins told their parents they were going to go look at other statues and walked off.
 After 10 minutes of trying to find where the Mona Lisa used to be, Katie and Kevin had no luck.  Katie suddenly heard a squeak, and she turned around nervously. "Did you hear that?" she asked Kevin.
 Kevin responded back, " Oh, yes I did!" nodding his head.
 They both peered down and saw a little fluffy brown mouse with giant eyes. The mouse was cute with a wiry, dull, and gray tail that was almost a half foot long! "AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" screamed Katie VERY loudly.
 "Shhhh," scolded Kevin, "Remember? We can talk to animals," reminding Katie how they were born with special powers that no one could explain. "We might be able to ask him for help." 
"OK," said Katie trusting Kevin.

Ch.2 Deceiving Mom and Dad

"Kevin, it's 1,000,000 dollars don't you want the money?" whispered Katie.
"You want the money, so you look for the Mona Lisa," responded Kevin.
"Come on Kevin don't you want to go on another adventure?" urged Katie, desperately trying to get Kevin to join the fun.

The two kids argued for a long time until finally Katie convinced Kevin to look for the Mona Lisa by reminding him of all the toys they could buy with their 1,000,000 dollars. They just had to find the painting before anyone else. But if they were going to find the Mona Lisa they needed a plan. First, they asked their parents if they could go to the Louvre to gather some research. Their parents asked Katie and Kevin why they wanted to go to that museum, because usually they never wanted to go to a museum, especially an art museum. So, Katie and Kevin lied that they had a school project to write a report on a famous painting.

"Okay, fine. You two can go next Tuesday when you're no longer grounded" Katie and Kevin's mom finally agreed.
 The kids ran back to their room and shouted at the same time, "YES!!!" so loud their parents heard them all the way from the living room.
