Mr. Martin Lopez-Fitzgerald sent a letter to Harmony asking if anyone would be interested in staying at a house for a couple of months. He post it a month ago and got five people who were willing to do it. Their names were Gwen Hotckiss, Sheridan Crane, Whitney Russell, Ethan Bennett, and Kay Bennett. They would be arriving tomorrow at 1:30 p.m. He didn't want them to send a picture of what they look like, because he wanted it to be a surprise. He lives in a mansion in London. The biggest mansion of all. He has 25 rooms, 16 bathrooms, a living room, a dinning room a kitchen, a library, closets, a secret bedroom; laundry room, an inside pool, a game room, workout room, a movie theater, basketball court, and the outside had a horse stable, a pool lagoon white a waterfall, cave with a bed inside, a cabin, dirt bike course, a beautiful garden; amusement park, and a mini golf course. He doesn't live alone there. He has his wife, sons and daughter living with him. Their names are Antonio, Luis, Miguel, Theresa. Chad is also living with them. He was adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Lopez-Fitzgerald.
Right now Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald was having his staff make sure his guest rooms were prepared for tomorrow, that there was enough food and drinks, that all the other rooms were clean too. Then he decides to head straight to bed.
The next day
It is around 1:30 p.m. on a Saturday in London. A car arrives with five guest which happen to be Gwen, Sheridan, Whitney, Ethan, and Kay. Gwen is wearing a purple dress. Sheridan is wearing a white top and black shorts. Whitney is wearing a red top and a black skirt. Kay is wearing a red sexy dress. Ethan is wearing a white shirt and blue jeans. They are shocked by how big the mansion is. They couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Gwen: It's so beautiful!
Sheridan: It's so amazing!
Whitney: This house is huge.
Ethan: I can't wait to see what is inside.
Kay: Well, what are we waiting for! Let's go in!
They knock on the door and a woman who is pretty answers the door.
Gina: Who are you?
Gwen: We are Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald's guests!
Gina: You all are right on time! I'll send the staff to bring your bags to your room. You can go explore the house if you want.
Whitney: Thanks!
Gwen, Sheridan, Whitney, Ethan, and Kay go explore the house. They see the study, kitchen, game room, workout room, but find no one in it. Then they check out the inside pool, and last they check out the outside. They couldn't believe how beautiful it was, and then Mr. Martin Lopez-Fitzgerald introduces himself to them.
Martin: Hello! I'm Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald!
Ethan: Nice to meet you!
Kay: What a pleasure!
Sheridan: Hello!
Whitney: Hello!
Gwen: Hello!
Martin: Did you all explore the house?
Whitney: Yes we did! Is there anyone else living here beside you?
Martin: Actually there is my wife Pilar and my sons and my daughter!
Gwen: What are their names?
Martin: Their names are Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad. They are exactly around your age!
Sheridan: We didn't see them in the house! Are they around?
Martin: Yes they are around! You will meet them around dinner! They love to do things on the estate.
Kay: Do you have any pets?
Martin: We have two pets. One belongs to my son. Antonio has a pet dog. The dog's name is Hudson. It's a black male Labrador. The second pet belongs to my daughter Theresa. It is a white female cat. She named it snow.
Then everyone hears the sound of a dog and see a young woman holding the dog. She sees Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald and the guests.
Lydia: Hello! I'm Lydia!
Sheridan, Gwen, Whitney, Ethan, and Kay say hello to her.
Lydia: I have a message from Ms. Lake. She wants to be off tomorrow.
Martin: Tell her she has the day off tomorrow.
Lydia: All right! Nice to meet all of you!
Lydia takes the dogs inside and Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald starts the conservation again with them.
Martin: My sons and daughters are taking you to a club Monday night in London. The club is called Wild.
Kay: How many young people go to this club?
Martin: More than 250 people! Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad go there to dance all night!
Sheridan: What time does the club open?
Martin: The club opens at 10:00 p. m. and it stays open to 6:00 a. m. All of you will meet them at dinner tonight at 7 p.m. I'll have Tina take you all to your rooms now.
Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald calls Tina outside and she comes right away. He tells her to take his guests to their rooms. She tells them to follow her this way. They go up a flight of stairs and can't believe how long the hallway is.
Tina: Gwen your room is the ninth door on the left, Sheridan your door is the twelfth on the right, Whitney your room is the eighteenth door on the left, Kay your door is the fourth on the right, and Ethan yours in the twenty-ninth door on the left.
Sheridan: I was just wondering what we are so apart from one another?
Tina: Well, Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald has a problem with guys and ladies being so close together, so he gave them space between.
Sheridan: Okay!
Sheridan, Gwen, Kay, Whitney, and Ethan go see what their rooms looks like. Kay's room is painted light blue, there is a huge bed, a closet, and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Gwen's room is painted light purple. There is a huge bed, a closet, and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Sheridan's room is painted light green, there is a huge bed, a closet, and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Whitney's room is painted a beautiful shade of red, there is a huge bed, a closet, and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Ethan room is painted light brown, there is a huge bed, a closet, and a bathroom with a bath and shower. All of the rooms have windows too.
All of them don't have to hang up their clothes because the staff already did that for them. They go downstairs and when they get outside in the back they see Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald by the steps.
Martin: Well, I guess you all are eager to start touring the outside of the estate. Is there anything else you are interested in beside touring the estate?
Gwen: There is something I want to know! Do your sons and daughters work?
Martin: Yes they do! Antonio and Luis are cops! Theresa is the fashion designer, Miguel works on automobiles, and Chad is a DJ.
Ethan: Wow! I can't believe how talented your children are!
Gwen: Is Theresa a big designer in London?
Martin: She is big all over the world. She makes very sexy clothes! I made sure to give my children the best education, have the best teachers in the world. That is why they are very successful in life because they work really hard to do it. All of your clothes have been put in the closets, and drawers upstairs. You have free time to yourselves before dinner at 7 p. m. Go explore the outside.
Actually all of Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald was telling Sheridan, Gwen, Whitney, Kay, and Ethan what his sons and daughter did for a living was a lie. Actually they were secret agents working for the government, and had to come up with cover up jobs.
Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald excuses himself and Sheridan, Gwen, Whitney, Kay, and Ethan go explore the outside. The first place they go to is the garden. They see an older woman in her forties planting flowers in there. She sees them come in and goes to introduce herself.
Ms. Bedford: Hello! I'm Ms. Bedford! You all must be Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald's guests!
Whitney: Yes we are! These flowers are beautiful!
Ms. Bedford: Thank you! We have roses, daisies, bluebells, snapdragons, Japanese Irises, Columbines, oriental lilies, calla lilies, pear blossoms, and purple lilies. Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald sons and daughters help with the garden. You are going to just love them.
Sheridan: Are any of his sons and daughter spoiled?
Ms. Bedford! Actually they care nothing about money. The give most of their money to charities all over the world. Their mother is the reason why they are such so caring and loving people. She never missed a moment with them.
Ethan: That is such a wonderful story.
Gwen: What else is on the outside beside the garden?
Ms. Bedford: There's the lagoon which is a mile up. It has a cave and a beautiful waterfall? There's also the dirt bike course, horse stable, the cabin, amusement park, and the mini golf course.
Whitney: Why does Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald have all this on the estate?
Ms. Bedford: He did it for his sons and daughters. He wanted them to have a happy life.
Kay: I think that is so amazing. Let's go explore everything outside!
Sheridan, Gwen, Whitney, Kay, and Ethan say good-bye to Ms. Bedford and continue their exploring. They are amazed by what they see. The lagoon pool is very long. They see the underground cave, the waterfall, and think it is all paradise. The next stop is the horse stable. They see a man in his thirties at the stable. He sees them and goes to introduce himself.
Mr. Crawford: Hello! I'm Mr. Crawford! You must be Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald's guests!
Kay: Yes we are! Can you tell us how many horses there are?
Mr. Crawford: There are about twenty-three horse. Five of them belong to Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald's sons and daughter. Would you like to see them?
Ethan: Yes of course!
Mr. Crawford takes them to a separate barn where Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, Chad's horses are. They see a black horse, a white horse, brown horse, a brown horse with white spots, and a dark brown horse.
Mr. Crawford: The black one is Antonio's. He named it Thunder because this horse goes very fast. Luis's horse is the brown one. He named it Hunter. This gray one is Theresa's horse. She named it Wind because she gets a great rush from riding it. This brown one with the white spots is Chad's. He named is Marshmallow because of the different colors on it. The last one is Miguel's. He named it Chocolate because of how dark the horse is. Then they see a picture of five kids on the bench. They are interested in knowing who they are.
Whitney: Who are those five children? It looks like four boys and one girl.
Mr. Crawford: Those are Mr. and Mrs. Lopez-Fitzgeralds sons and daughters when they were younger.
Gwen looks at the picture of the five children and thinks how cute they were when they were children. Sheridan, Kay, and Ethan look at it too and thought they were beautiful too.
Kay: I wonder what they look like now! Do you know what time is it?
Mr. Crawford: About 4:00 p. m! You all still would have time to check out the Amusement Park. Just keeping walking for five minutes and when you see the huge Ferris Wheel, that is the amusement park.
Gwen: Thanks! Let's hurry because pretty soon we have to be back for dinner!
Sheridan, Gwen, Whitney, Kay, and Ethan say good-bye to Mr. Crawford, and go straight to the amusement park. After walking five minutes they see the huge white Ferris Wheel. When they get closer they go explore the other rides over there. They see the bumper cars, a haunted house, fun houses, a water ride, upside down roller coasters, the rainbow, games to play, a love ride, the upside down Ferris Wheel, and many other rides. They decide after that to head back to the house. It took them fifteen minutes to get back and when they arrived back, the clock said 5:00 p.m.
Sheridan: I'm so tired from walking! What about the rest of you?
Gwen: It wasn't that bad!
Whitney: I had a fun time exploring the outside!
Kay: I can't wait to meet Mr. and Mrs. Lopez-Fitzgerald's sons and daughters.
Ethan: I think I'm going to go back to my room to take a nap!
Gwen: I think I will go to the library to read a book! Does anyone want to come with me?
Whitney: I'll go with you! There must be a lot of interesting stuff to read in there! Sheridan and Kay do you want to come?
Sheridan: No! I think I need a long nap too!
Kay: Yeah! I need an hour of rest and then I will come to the library to join both of you!
Whitney: All right! See you all soon!
Whitney and Gwen go to the library while Sheridan, Kay, and Ethan go upstairs to take a nap. In the library there were hundreds of books in there, which were divided into different sections. Gwen choses Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and the Twelfth Night, and Whitney chose Sleeping Beauty, Forbidden Love, and other romance book. They are enjoying reading their books when they hear footsteps from outside. Then the see a woman coming in with a tray of tea and cookies. She is in her thirties.
Ms. Harrison: Hello! I'm Ms. Harrison! I thought it would nice to bring you ladies some tea before dinner!
Gwen: Thank you! How did you know we were in here?
Ms. Harrison: I saw you ladies going in as I was walking by!
Whitney: Do you know what time it is?
Ms. Harrison: It is 6:00 p.m. I have to excuse myself now! I have to go help prepare the dinner!
Gwen and Whitney saw good-bye to her and then they sit down to have a cup of tea and cookies. They are enjoying everything so much, that they don't notice Kay come into the room.
Kay: You ladies are drinking tea and eating cookies!
Gwen: You want a cup of tea!
Kay: Sure!
Gwen pours Kay a cup of tea and gives her a couple of cookies too. Kay tastes the tea and can't believe how wonderful it is.
Kay: This tea is great.
Whitney: I never had anything like this before!
Gwen: They must have the best staff here! This place is great.
Kay: I love it here. There is so much you can do here. It's like you never want to leave.
Whitney: Yeah! Who would want to leave a place like this?
Thirty minutes later Sheridan and Ethan wake up. They see on their clocks that it is 6:30 p. m and that in thirty minutes it will be time for dinner. They go downstairs to join Gwen, Whitney, and Kay in the library. Ms. Lane collected the tray ten minutes ago.
Gwen: You must have slept like a baby!
Sheridan: The bed is so comfortable to sleep in. I wonder who picked the furniture?
Ethan: I was out in seconds! What did you ladies do?
Gwen: Well, Whitney and I read a couple of books. Then Ms. Harrison brought tea and cookies for us.
Whitney: It's like you never have to do anything in the house because they do it for you.
Kay: What else can you expect from them?
Fifteen minutes Ms. Lane tells them it is time to be seated for dinner. Gwen, Sheridan, Whitney, Kay, and Ethan head to the dinning room. It is very far from the pool. About five minutes later they arrive at the dinning room. The dinning ware is set on the table. They can't believe how fancy it is. They all take their seats on the right side of the table and wait for the others to show up. Five minutes later Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald and his wife show up. Mr. Fitzgerald introduces them to his wife.
Martin: Pilar! I like you to meet the new guests that will be staying here with us!
Pilar: Nice to meet you all! What are your names?
Gwen: I'm Gwen!
Sheridan: I'm Sheridan!
Whitney: I'm Whitney!
Kay: I'm Kay!
Ethan: I'm Ethan!
Pilar: Those are such great names! You will meet Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad in five minutes. Martin! Did you let them chose the menu today?
Martin: Yes I did! The cook won't tell me what's she making! She says it's a surprise for the guests.
Pilar: So I understand you all grew up in Harmony!
Kay: Harmony is a very small town. It's a nice place to live in.
Pilar: Why were you all interested in coming for a couple of months?
Gwen: I needed some time to get away! I work for my father's business and he gets demanding most of the time.
Sheridan: I wanted to come here cause I love seeing new places in the world.
Whitney: I just broke up with my boyfriend and I thought it would be great for me to get away for a while.
Kay: I guess I always wanted to see what the rest of the world looked like!
Ethan: Probably the same for me too!
Then it started to rain heavy outside for ten minutes before Gina came in to announce that dinner would be served in five minutes. Then she leaves the dinning room to get the pitchers of Sprite and Coke for everyone. She comes back two minutes later with the pitchers! Everyone helps themselves with something to drink. Ten minutes later Antonio, Luis, Miguel, Theresa, and Chad arrive home. The guys are wearing suits and dress is wearing a pink suit. As they are headed to the dinning room their cell phone where they receive their important call from work starts to ring. Antonio presses the button to hear what their boss has to tell them.
Antonio: Hello!
Mr. Rivers: Antonio! Is Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad there too?
Antonio: Yes they are!
Mr. Rivers: Good! I need all of you to go to Paris tonight! There's been a murder at the Smash Club! All of you need to go in disguise!
Antonio: All right!
Then Antonio hangs up the cell phone and tells Luis, Miguel, Theresa, and Chad what is going on. As they are headed upstairs the door bell rings and Antonio goes to answer it. Then he sees Brain outside with a gun!
Antonio: What do you want?
Brain: To meet the new guests in the house!
Antonio: No way!
Brain: Then I will come after your family and friends! Now call down your brothers and sister right now. If you mention the gun one of them will die!
Antonio calls out their names and then come downstairs right away. They have no idea who this man is.
Theresa: Whose this Antonio?
With the gun pointed in Antonio's back, he has to think of a something to tell his sister Theresa.
Antonio: This is my friend Brain. He came over to meet the guests!
Theresa: Nice to meet you Brain! Why don't all of us head to the dinning room?
Antonio: Yeah! Let's do that! (acting very nervous)
Luis: Are you all right?
Antonio: I'm fine.
Luis thinks something is going on. He has this gut feeling that Antonio knows more than he is saying. Then all of them head to the dinning room, but Brain says something in the hallway entrance before they go into the dinning room.
Brain: I have seen all of you before somewhere!
Chad: You have! I would like to know where exactly!
Brain: At the warehouse a year ago! You all used to work for Mr. Malone!
Miguel: We did but we aren't working for him no more!
Brain: Why is that?
Theresa: Things changed!
Brain: Did it have to do cause of what he did in the business?
Luis: It was something like that.
Brain: Why don't I fill you all on why I'm really here!
Theresa: Antonio! What is he talking about?
Antonio: I used to be friends with him a year ago! He works with Mr. Malone!
Luis: Oh really! Why are you here then?
Brain: Mr. Malone wants all of you to work for him again!
Theresa: You can tell him we have had enough of his shit!
Brain: What don't I meet your parents and guests first?
Without any of them responding right away, Brain starts to say something very loud so everyone in the dinning room can hear!
Brain: Theresa there is way I am going to sleep with you!
Everyone in the dinning room is stunned by what they have heard and so have Antonio, Luis, Miguel, and Chad. The most shocked is Theresa and she is going to let him say something like that.
Theresa: You pig!
Brain: You know do you always get feisty every time a man rejects you!
Theresa: I'm going to kill you!
Brain: Oh really! Why don't I tell Timothy you tried to hit on his best friend?
Theresa: How do you know Timothy?
Brian: I know everything about all of you! Antonio was the one who told me!
Luis: Are you going to use this against us?
Brain: Not if you all agree to come back and work for Mr. Malone!
Miguel: What if we decide not to work for Mr. Malone again?
Brain: They there we be serious consequences that all of you will have to pay?
Antonio: You win! We will work for Mr. Malone again!
Brain: Very good! Now I will leave and by the way none of you have to go to the Smash Club. That was me on the phone!
Then Brain leaves and Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad decide to go to the pool to talk about this. Mr. Lopez-Fitzgerald assures everyone else in the dinning room that everything is okay. When Antonio, Luis, Theresa, Miguel, and Chad get to the pool room, they lock it when they get inside.
Theresa: Oh great! I wonder what Mr. Malone has in store for us this time!
Antonio: You know exactly what he wants us to do! He wants to kill people!
Luis: Innocent people who will lose their lifes!
Chad: There has to be some way we can get out of this!
Miguel: If we sell Mr. Malone to the police, how do you know he won't do the same thing to us! We were assassins a year ago for his company.
Antonio: Then we have no choice but to work for him again!
Theresa: I don't think I go do it again!
Antonio: You have to! Do you want to spend the rest of your life in prison?
Theresa: No! I guess I will have to work for him!
An hour later Miguel and Luis head upstairs to their rooms and so does Sheridan, Whitney, Ethan, Mr. and Mrs. Lopez-Fitzgerald. Chad and Theresa decide to stay in the pool room for another half-an-hour. Antonio decides to get a drink in the living room.
