The Mysteries Text

Chapter 1:

After staring at their phones in complete silence for

a few minutes. Tommy Cub frowned as he read the text

on his phone out loud then asked

"Okay, very funny which of you unfunny jokers? Just

sent this dumb text?"

"Really Tommy, if we've been with you this whole time

how could any of us send it? Without you noticing."

Sammy Turtle smirked

"Okay, okay, then whoever did it. Sent it as some kind

of joke." Tommy began

"What kind of joke dares you to go to Bay Road, and 

investigate some lighthouse. That I'm sure none of us

knew was even out there in the first place."

Daisy Penguin frowned. "Besides I don't feel comfortable

checking out any place. Without knowing who we're 

dealing with." She added

"I was thinking the same thing too. But I also thought

maybe they want to test us to see if we know

what we're doing." Cookie also added

"Maybe, but I still would feel better knowing who it is

instead of getting some creepy text." The only thing

out there I know of is some abandoned old 

warehouses." Vicky Dragonfly began

"Which are rumored to be haunted." Sammy interrupted

"Can we please stop with places being haunted all the

time?

 Haven't we learned anything from all the cases we've

already been on? That there's no such thing I'm telling 

you guys, this is some kind of joke nothing more."

Tommy sighed

Chapter 2:

A few days later the gang was still curious about who 

had sent them that strange text and why. But what 

really had them curious was wondering what kind of

mystery was waiting for them. Once they went out there

Later that day Vicky was trying to pay attention to what

Honey Kitten was telling them about her new movie

on urban legends that she was making. But her mind kept

wandering off

"Earth to Vicky, come in Vicky!" Honey cried out as she

waved her paw in front of Vicky's face

"Oh sorry, I guess I was just."

"Spacing out? I know since I've asked you what 

you thought about my new movie." For the last

minute now." Honey finished for her. They just stared at

each other for a second before they both started

cracking up at the same time

"So, tell me am I really that boring," Honey added trying 

to sound serious

"No." Vicky then quickly told her all about the strange 

text that they had received

"Oh wow, 

how weird. And you guys have no idea who sent

it?" Honey asked

"I keep telling them that's probably just a joke,"

Tommy said

"Tommy, I really don't think so. If it were I would've

been able to trace the sender by now." I've even asked a

friend of mine from my computer class. And not

even he could figure it out." Vicky answered him

"So, are you guys going out there and check it out? Or

let it go as a joke like Tommy said." Honey asked them

"Well, if we left it up to Sammy, we'd just leave it."

Daisy joked

Hey!

Daisy walked over to him and gave Sammy a big hug

"You know that I was only teasing. But if we're going

to go out there we should do it soon."

"Cool, can I come with you guys? Since you all know

just how much I love a good mystery." Honey smiled

"Sure, but I'm getting a funny feeling that this mystery. 

Just changed from was it just a joke? To I can't wait to

see what's going to happen next." Cookie also smiled

Chapter 3:

The next morning the gang's excitement and curiosity

grew. As they boarded the ferry heading out to Bay Road

Soon what looked like a maze of old warehouses came into

View

"Oh wow, I didn't expect this place to be so big. It's just a

big maze of empty warehouses!" Daisy cried out

"It is. It's a shame how they just let it go but if you don't 

mind in me asking." Why are you kids coming out here?

This isn't a place you should be hanging out in." 

The ferry assistant asked them frowning

"Oh,

 I'm making a document on our town's abandoned buildings

and folk tales. We're just going to take a few pictures

then leave." Honey explained. The assistant gave her a 

strange look before he answered her back

"I see

Well, stay out of trouble, and don't let the toy goons

spook ya!" He then started laughing hysterically as he 

walked away

"Well, that dude wasn't weird at all," Tommy said as he 

and the others watched him go. Once they got off the 

ferry and started walking around Sammy asked

"Okay, where to now?"

"Sammy, something is sticking to the bottom of 

your sneaker," Tommy told him. Sammy bent down

and picked up the piece of paper then read it

out loud:

THE ANSWER YOU SEEK IS

GUARDED BY THE TALL LIGHT

Chapter 4:

"What does that mean?" He frowned. None of them 

answered they seemed to be lost in their deep

thoughts

"Can I see it?" Vicky asked him breaking the silence

between them. She slowly reread the note 

"There's some kind of drawing on here that looks."

She began

"That looks like we just found our mysterious lighthouse."

Cookie finished for her smiling

What

Cookie pointed to a big old building that was hidden 

in the far corner hidden behind some overgrown bushes

"So, what are we waiting for? Let's check out what 

surprises are hidden for us inside!" Tommy laughed. Before

heading towards it Cookie was about to go inside when

something caught her eye

"Hey Cookie, you coming?" Daisy asked her

"Yeah, I just thought I saw something ducking behind 

bushes. I guess my eyes are playing tricks on me."

Cookie shrugged

When they walked inside and adjusted their eyes 

to the dim lights. They were in surprised awe just 

staring at shelves upon shelves filled with toys, 

board games, and video games

"Whoa,

 this place is beyond awesome." Tommy cried out

Cookie was about to answer him when a plush toy bear

suddenly popped out of the box. With some other toys

who had very nervous looks on their faces

"Oh, you did it now! You better hope that Queen Hippo 

and her goons don't find you cause if they do." 

They're going to rip out your battery packs or worse."

The toy bear nervously told them

The gang just stared at each other with frightened looks

before they took off running back to where. They

just came from Sammy, was about to open the door when 

the toy bear told him

"I wouldn't open that door if I were you. You guys, don't 

know if Queen Hippo set a trap." The only

way you'll get out of here now is to turn off her

battery pack before she gets yours."

"Huh? We don't know what you're talking about?"

What are battery packs? And how are you alive?"

Sammy frowned

"Yeah, and why should we trust you? How do we know

that you didn't set a trap?" Tommy added

"I'd never do that. This used to be a happy safe place to 

live. That was until Queen Hippo and her goons moved

in." And started bossing all of us around, threatening us 

to rip out our battery pack if we didn't do what they say."

It's gotten so bad that some of the baby toys are so scared

of them. That they refuse to come out of their boxes."

The toy bear explained

"That's awful toy or no toy, I hate it when others think

That they can just bully others around."

Cookie snorted

"Oh,

 she's more than a bully. She's evil she doesn't know

that I know. But a couple of days ago I overheard her 

telling her goons to start getting ready." He continued

Ready for what?

Chapter 5:

The toy bear glanced around to make sure that none of

her goons were listening

"Her plan is that as soon as either she or one of her 

goons are brought. To make sure they cause all sorts of 

problems that they'd be blamed and punished."

Since there was no way that their parents would ever 

believe that a toy caused all the trouble."

"That is evil. I can't believe she'd want to do something 

like that. We've to do something to stop her before she ruins

every kid's life out there." Cookie cried out  

"Agreed. But to do that one of you needs to destroy her

battery pack and shut her off forever."

The toy bear began. And before he could finish an angry

voice yelled out

"They're over there!"

"Go, run! I'll hold them back as much as I can!"

The toy bear yelled

The gang took off running in search of the hippo's house box

After a few minutes, Daisy cried out

"I think I found it!" She was about to open it when a 

voice from next to her interrupted

"You'll never find it there."

Frowning Daisy asked the doll

"How do you know what we're looking for?"

"Oh, word gets around. But don't worry I'm on your side

I'd love to see bossy fancy pants finally get what she

and goofy deserve." The doll snorted

"Thanks, you wouldn't know where we can find it?

Would you?" Daisy shrugged

"Sure, she doesn't think that we know. But if you find

her pool house it's hidden inside the blue float."

That's typed at the deep end of her pool." 

The doll explained

"Thanks again." Daisy smiled before she and the others 

ran off. A few minutes later she found it

"Okay, got it."

But before she could finish a voice yelled

"Get them!"

Chapter 6:

  Once more they took off running towards the front door

Halfway there they ran straight into the ferry assistant

knocking him hard to the floor

"What do you think you kids are doing?'

He asked them once he got back up rubbing the back 

of his head

"Sorry, we didn't mean to run into you. What are you 

doing here?" Tommy asked him

"I was looking for you kids. I knew you were lying when 

you said that you were here only to take a few pictures."

He began

"Mister, I hate to interrupt and this is going to sound

crazy. But this place is full of toys that are alive!

"Not only are they alive but some are trying to hurt us

and hurt any kid who buys them." So, we've to shut off

the Queen Hippo and her goons' battery pack. Before

they do hurt us." Tommy cried

The ferry assistant just stared at him as if he were nuts

"I see, then what are we waiting for? Follow me, I

think I can help you with that."

Soon afterwards the lights suddenly flicked off and on

"What just happened?" Vicky asked once the lights came

back on

"Don't know. Hopefully, it worked." The toy bear sighed

Oh no!" Sammy cried

Chapter 7:

The ferry assistant patted Sammy on top of his head

then laughed

"I'm afraid I must let you all in a little secret. I'm

the one who sent you kids those texts." He began

What? Why? They all cried out at the same time

The ferry assistant held up his paw and laughed even

harder

"Please, let me explain my name is Cat Foxtail, and 

recently brought Bay Road.

And plan to turn it into the best and biggest gaming

playland in all of Rocky Shores." Each warehouse will

be a game theme room." He explained

"Umm, that sounds great and all. But what does that

have to do with why you sent us those texts? To come

out here?" Tommy frowned

"Well, young cub like I said in the text before I 

built anything I needed the best detectives in Rocky 

Shores. To be the first in testing out a new video game

that I've been working on." The name of it is

Toy Escape, and the plot of the game is what happens

when a group of kids get locked up inside a warehouse."

In where the toys come alive some friendly and some

not so friendly. And have to escape before Queen Hippo

and her goons capture them then it'd be game over."

Cat answered

"Cool, so is the toy bear part of the game?"

Sammy asked him

  "Yes, our little buddy here is not only part of it. He's

your guide during your gameplay. If you get stuck or 

get in trouble while playing it, he'll do everything in 

his power to help you." So, I'm dying to know how did

you guys like playing it?" He asked them smiling

"Are you kidding? It was awesome! I can't wait to play 

it again." Tommy cried out happily. And before Cat had

a chance to reply a group of evil giggles floated through 

the room and smirked

"Oh yes, Tommy, please do play it again soon. But 

just know that if you do neither you nor your friends

will ever make it out again!"
