The next room proved to be about the same size and shape as the last. At the far end, Toby and Margaret could see another door, with a sign above it. “Wonder what we’ll have to do this time?” Margaret pondered aloud. “Maybe you’ll actually be some help,” Toby muttered. If Margaret heard, she gave no sign. As they drew nearer, the girls saw that the door was secured with a padlock. The sign showed what appeared to be two of Santa’s elves flanking a jester. Above them was a banner reading, “Two elves make a fool. Only a fool can open the door.” Below the sign, in much smaller print, was the following: Each letter in the puzzle represents a number from 0 to 9. No two letters are the same number. ELF + ELF --------- FOOL “Oh, Jeeps!” Toby exclaimed. Math was hard enough with numbers, but letters? “How’re we ever gonna figure this one out –” “Gimme your notebook and pen,” Margaret interjected. “Huh?” “C’mon, hand ‘em over!” Toby dutifully produced the pen and

Prologue Time: 8:00 pm Location: Greendale Police Department “Alright boys. Let’s shut ‘er down for the night,” Chief Howard Macy said as he stood up from his chair. “Smith, we need to make sure the nightguards are in position.

What did he want that was so important? He stepped into his

Chapter 7: Investigating the Cause I think we need a quick recap on what has happened so far with George and Sam. Henry Lee, Alexandra’s dad, was just elected mayor for the city of the Athens. Everything was going great until Gottfried tried to ask for $10 million dollars for some outrageous secret project he was working on. Of course, Henry rejects his request, so Gottfried goes back to his secret lab and prepares a device that could potentially destroy the whole city! Meanwhile, George and Sam almost get in a fight, and Alexandra is kidnapped! Fortunately, the detective duo is back together after realizing that it was Gottfried who took Alexandra hostage. What will happen next? Our adventure continues with George Grayson and Sam Stevens trying to find where the explosion and earthquake destruction occurred. The only lead they have so far is that the earthquake happened on the countryside, which was kind of far away from George’s house. The boys got their bikes out and started their

Truth or Dare By Balhoom December 30th 2020 Melody looked around the room and smiled contentedly to herself, it had been more than three years since the girls had all been together in one place, their different academic leanings having scattered them across the country to different universities. But now finally here they were - the Alpha Pack reunited at last. She cringed inwardly at the name they had given themselves, they’d believed themselves the hottest, most beautiful, most popular and the most intelligent girls in their year and looking back they’d undoubtedly been right, but still there had been no need to brag about it. The girls had all met on their first day of secondary school back in September 2010 and for the next seven years until the end of their A levels they had been inseparable. They had studied together, played together and gone clubbing together. Oh the nights clubbing had been the best, catching the late bus into Oxford every Saturday and hopping from club to
