Alright, here's the next chapter. I'm not sure that I'm doing a good job keeping it in the mystery section anymore, but I'll give it a shot. So, in this story you will find, love, hate and of course, fear, and a little bit of suspense. I hope you like where I'm coming from. Here's the next story.

Basil stared out the window. It had been about two or three weeks since Liz had been in the hospital, and actually made it out. He stared into the quiet night. It did not rain this night. It was a perfect star lit night, and a full moon. Suddenly, he saw a young mouse making his way towards the door. He had on a tux and his brown hair was neat a top his head.

"Liz, dear. Remy is here." He shouted up the stairway. Liz came down the stairs. She looked just like she had in Basil's dream, which kind of scared him, but not enough seeming how he was the one that said she should wear that dress. But the hair did shock him.

She wore a beautiful blue prom dress, that had two spaghetti straps that held it up. It trained all the way down to her high heels, and had a split in the side clean up to her hip. then, she had her hair fixed just as it had been in the dream. braided and then piled on top of her head. It was classy and gorgeous.

"You look beautiful dear." He said, hugging her.

"Ah, thanks dad." She said. "Right when I get home, you're helping me out of this thing." She added, noting that she couldn't last in high heels nor dresses very long.

"What's the need. I like you in blue." Came a voice from the door. Remy had let himself in and was leaning against the posts in front of the door, one leg crossed over the other casually.

"You look beautiful, honey." He said, as he wrapped his arms around her waists and kissed her.

"Ready?" He asked, once they pulled out of it.

"Yep." She said. As she left, Basil caught a glimpse at the engagement ring on her left hand. time does fly He noted, as he sat down in a chair, watching the kids on their way to the prom.


Everyone had come to prom. Liz just looked around at all the faces of her classmates.

"Let's see, Jessica's with Remus, Ginny is with Thomas, Olivia is with George, Tabitha...." Liz caught herself as she almost flew right by Olivia. Remy let her go and she broke free, running over to greet Olivia. She nearly fell down in the high heels though.

"Olivia, you're with George!?" Said Liz, both surprised but joyed that her best friend had made it with a date.

"Yep. He's very good at dancing." Said Olivia, noting on her date. Liz noted on George's neat and tidy black hair and green eyes. He had muscles on his muscles, which is why ALMOST every girl wanted to go out with him.

But Liz had Remy. Nothing would ever go wrong there.

"Well, see ya later." Said Olivia, running back to George.

"See ya." Said Liz. She turned back to go to Remy.

"So, Olivia hadn't told you she was going with George?" Asked Remy.

"Nope. Why?" Asked Liz.

"Well, she didn't tell me, so I had guessed you had known." Said Remy, casually pulling Liz into a dancing hold. They danced around the room.

"Nope, I guess they were keeping it a surprise." Said Liz, letting it go. Olivia told Liz things when Liz needed to know. That's all that mattered. They had just gotten through the first three dances.

They were moving onto their fourth when Remy stopped dancing and walked toward the table where punch and chips were.

"What's wrong?" Asked Liz, putting a hand on his shoulder. He looked up, concern in his eyes.

"Hiram, he has invented some sort of contraption. He doesn't know what it can do, but I suspect that Ratigan and Redeye may hear of it soon." He said, worried.

"Oh, come on Remy. Don't be ridiculous. Ratigan wouldn't have heard of it." Said Liz.

"Yeah, he probably wouldn't have if Hiram hadn't told Loud mouth Larry." Said Remy.

"Oh my god, that old coot. Man he's got nothing to do but gossip." Said Liz, now a bit concerned.

"But still, do you really think that we need to worry about it tonight?" She urged. No sooner had she spoken, the doors flew open, and there in the doorway, stood Basil. He had his hat and coat on.

"Oh great. I had to ask." Said Liz, knowing that this must have something to do with Hiram Flaversham.

"Elizabeth!" Basil called into the crowd. Elizabeth grabbed Remy by his shirt, ran past Olivia and grabbed her away from George and dragged them both toward her father with her.

"Hi dad. Let me guess, Hiram's new invention has been stolen?" Asked Liz, knowingly.

"No, worse. Hiram and his new invention has been stolen." Said Basil, worried.


Alright, I know what you all are thinking. Why does Hiram always have to be the one to be kidnapped. Well, frankly he's an inventor, and inventors always get kidnapped. Not only that, in the story I was writing before, Elizabeth wasn't Olivia's BEST friend yet, so it wasn't as big as it would be now. So, I'm going off of a limb here so please, support and keep reading. bye.
