The Day the Lights Went Out in Sleuthville

This morning she was walking down the street, looking forward to another day at work.

She was whistling, and just wanted to shout to the world how she loves the agency she is in, loves to work until she almost drops, and the people within.

Then suddenly, her whistles come to an abrupt halt, as she notices the strangest thing she's ever seen.

She knows City Hall always has people in and out all day long but what she could'nt figure out was, why every single detective from every single agency was walking around looking dazed and confused.

"Cfm!!", Makensie asks excitedly, "What in the world is going on?" Cfm, very slowly says, "Go see for yourself. You won't be able to get into the agency"

Makensie looks at her as if sheis crazy, but runs off to Mojo's to see for herself. She reaches for the door handle to open it, and it wouldn't budge. Jerking frantically at the doors, she hollers, "Heyyyy!!!! Let me in!!!!"

Leddy walks by and says "Yo, Mak, you can tug and pull all you want, you're not getting in ANYWHERE. It's a lock out and believe me, I'm as frustrated as you. Come on, lets walk back to City Hall, among the other zombies, ummm, I mean, Detectives"

Makensie follows along, and there they are, back among the dazed and confused.

Hours and hours past, Makensie is sitting on a stoop, with her elbows resting on her knees , her chin in one hand, a cup of old coffee in the other. Her hair is sticking up everywhere, andlooks to be having withdrawls.

Suddenly, the main man of Sleuthville, shows up to tell us that we can now enter our agencies.

He never saw anyone move as fast as what everyone did that day.

Makensie, who is close to being hysterical, grabs every friend she sees, and says "Can you believe it? We can go back to work!!! Ohhh yessss!!!!" . Then, she grabs the main man by the shoulders, and says "THANK YOU SIR, YOU JUST SAVED MY LIFE!!" and she runs as fast as she can back to her agency,excited to get back to work.

Along the way, she sees Jstkdn doing some kind of dance, a happy dance she is guessing. Makensie chuckles and keeps on running to her agency.

Withdrawls..... such a wonderful feeling! :)

Meanwhile, Leddy is still being haunted by nightmares of chickens as she was forced to become an Evil Chicken-Killer of The Egg vs Chicken Gameworld Corporation while the lights of Sleuthville were out.

You can now find her somewhere wandering the halls of the Mokita Mansion wide-eyed and looking for eggs in case of a devilish chicken attack.

We know you didn't break sleuth nikkie, though I am sorry I missed the happy dance!!


As a fellow memeber of Mokita, I can vouch for Leddy's wide-eyed chicken paranoia!!

I however was forced to make a little man build a damn, plant trees and flowers, build via ducts, unearth bones, set things on fire, etc.

We shall all blame Blueberry Hill

Gradbeth! Forced? Did you try the dragon? It's more of a challange, but I liked the lizard's results better.

Story ADD ON!!
The lights were out, no one knew why!! The Treasure was getting away, with all the doors locked the clues were unavailable!! We were only a couple of clues away, how could this happen now!!? Panic was everywhere! The hours dragged on, we tried lock picking, we tried Safe Cracking! Nothing would open the doors! We even looked for a back door in!!!
Then suddenly the doors popped open, never had we seen so many detectives at the agency all at once!! Case files were flying everywhere, and still no matter how hard we tried, our fears came true! The Treasure was gone for ever!!!!
