Kevin and Katie woke up in their room, lying on their bunk bed, "I'm never going there AGAIN!" Katie shouted, waking up from one of her nightmares, "Shhhhhhh, at least you're not Ellie who has to sleep there!" stated Kevin in a furious tone.
Katie heard footsteps and screamed. Kevin annoyingly said, "This is going way too far, I mean IT'S ONLY OUR PARENTS!!!"
Their mom walked in shocked that they weren't out of bed yet. They usually woke up early when projects were due. Kevin suddenly remembered the lie they told their parents about the research project. Their mom stared at them waiting for her two kids to get ready. Katie and Kevin jumped out of bed, and their mom smiled and left the room.
"Do we have to?" whined Katie, as she picked up her favorite pink skirt.
"Why did you even have to think about finding the Mona Lisa in the first place?!" replied Kevin.
After Katie and Kevin took a shower and brushed their teeth, they ran to the kitchen.
"Oh, do you to want to go to the museum to take more notes?" questioned their mom.
Katie and Kevin nodded.
Kevin signaled Katie to follow him away from their parents. Kevin whispered, "We have to go back to the museum to find more clues."
Katie groaned, "Fine."

Ch. 4 The Warning
"Hi!" squeaked the little furry mouse. "Don't be scared of me. I'm Ellie, the mouse!"
Katie just stared at the mouse while Kevin responded by saying, "Do you live here? Did you witness the Mona Lisa being stolen?"
Ellie nodded, "Oh yes! Actually I live right under where the Mona Lisa used to hang! Follow me, I will show you my house and where the Mona Lisa used to be too! I'm warning you BE CAREFUL!"
Ellie led the two adventurous children down a narrow, dark hallway which seemed to be deserted for weeks. They finally reached a small room. The walls were painted gold with massive, colorful stained glass windows. When the light came in it looked truly beautiful, "and that's why I live here," said Ellie with content.
Katie and Kevin looked behind them, and all they saw was a note on the wall where the Mona Lisa used to hang. In messy handwriting, it said, "I Have The Mona Lisa. Don't Even Try..." Kevin thought the thief must have written that and looked down. He saw a pen on the floor with red ink. Both kids were terrified and started to regret their decision to find the Mona Lisa. Katie stopped Kevin and whispered shaking, "Don't pick it up it up. It could be dangerous!"
Kevin whispered back, "This was your idea, and it's our only proof."
Kevin picked it up. Katie heard a little squeak. Ellie was gone. Katie understood how he felt. Kevin sighed holding the pen, "Let's go! Mom and dad will start getting worried soon."
