And here is another story by PBG. Whoopee. I know I'm in the middle of like 5 other Fanfics, not to mention the several dozen (Fine, more like ten) books I am writing and seeking to publish. In the middle of a busy week full of piano, art class and Girl Scouts. Errr.... don't expect me to update too often....
Anyhoo, here goes the story.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACH!" cried Sally, a maid at Alistair Oh's mansion. She heard the footsteps of several people answering the scream, and normally she would have called them to where she was, but her voice wasn't working and her legs were like jell-o. Finally several other maids, a butler and Alistair ran into the room.
"What's the matter, Sally?" asked Alistair in alarm. The maid turned around to face him and uttered but a word.
"Murder," she whispered, and fell down in a dead faint.

"Oh my gosh!" Amy exclaimed. She was on the phone with her uncle, Alistair Oh. "That... that's terrible! What happened?" She nodded and "Uh huh-ed" a few more times and then bade Alistair farewell.
"What's the matter?" Dan asked. Amy's face was grave.
"Dan... Mr. McIntyre... he's dead." she said.
"What? Mr. McIntyre? How? Why?" Dan asked. Amy wiped tears from her eyes. She sniffled and then answered.
"Alistair couldn't tell me, he said the line was secure. But we have to go to his mansion in Korea for the funeral and... something else. I don't know any more."
"Back? But we were just there yesterday for Alistair's seventieth!"
"I know. We have to go though, so get packed." The two went there separate ways to pack their bags.

"What?" Natalie asked in bewilderment. "Back? Why? We were just there!"
"Well, Alistair said something about a funeral, but he wouldn't tell me the rest. So go pack your luggage. Shoo." Ian was left to ponder in silence.
The same thing was happening in several different continents. Jonah Wizard in India and the Holts in Argentina. All four families, or teams, the Cahills, Kabras, Jonah, and the Holts were wondering about why they had to go back to Korea. All would be revealed the next day.
Okizzay, the next chapter will be up sooper soon because I am totally in the zone. Sorry if it's really bad so far, if it is I'll make it better....
