Once I heard the news about the fire, I was like, "How can someone do that?"
"I know," said Mom.
"That's where Kayla is buried," I said.
"I wonder how Mary Anne is doing about that," said Mom.
"Me, too," I said.
That was when Stacey came over.
"The fire was still all over the news," I said. "That's just plain awful."
"I know, Mary Anne feels she lost Kayla all over again. Kaylee doesn't know it," said Stacey.
"Why?" I asked.
"She's worried Kaylee might get upset," said Stacey.
"She might find out anyway," I said.
"Scooby-Doo gang are down because they want to help us to solve the mystery," said Stacey as she explained it to me.
"Great, we can all join in. But would Mary Anne want to do so?" I asked.
"I'm not sure. I didn't ask her yet," replied Stacey.
"I got a feeling that she might not want to," I said as Stacey agreed with me.
When we both asked, I was right that Mary Anne refused to help out.
"Don't you want to help to solve the mystery on why your friend's burial site is burnt down?" I asked.
"It could bother me," replied Mary Anne.
"You're usually great at solving anything," said Stacey.
"You know on how emotional I get," said Mary Anne.
"We can all do it together," I said.
Then, Stacey came up with an idea.
"Why don't you try to pretend that it didn't happen so you can still help us out?" asked Stacey.
"I could try, but how could I do that without letting it bother me?" asked Mary Anne who was worried about that.
"You can try to block it out," I suggested.
"I agree," said Stacey.
"Well, I guess so," said Mary Anne.
She wasn't so sure that would work for her.
"Did Kaylee know about what happen?" asked Stacey.
"She did, she got emotional, too," replied Mary Anne. "She found out when it came on the news that night."
"Maybe she can help us solve that mystery with us," said Stacey.
"I don't know she did that before," said Mary Anne.
"We can show her how," I said.
When we asked Kaylee, she was very happy and agreed to do it. Mary Anne couldn't believe Kaylee got over the news quickly. She's not the jealous type though; she wished she did the same thing right away. Kaylee is very strong about these things.
The next day, the Mystery, Inc came to New York City. We met them there.
"Let's see if we can find out some clues," said Fred.
"Okay," said Stacey. "I got another helper, too."
"Perfect," said Velma.
"Someone is so dumb," said a voice behind us.
It was Mary Anne who just found something.
"How can anyone threw cigars near every grave?" asked Mary Anne.
"Whoa. How many?" I asked.
"Too many to count," said Mary Anne. Then, she saw a sign. "Can't they read that the rule is no smoking here?"
"You're right," said Shaggy.
"Scooby-Doo, go sniff for some more clues," said Daphne.
"Okay," said Scooby-Doo.
When he did, there were no other clues to be found yet. We looked until we decided to come back later to look some clues. We're glad our idea fro Mary Anne to block that memory worked for her. She was actually mad about someone did to cause a fire.
"Someone even smashed Kayla's grave," said Mary Anne who noticed that.
"Whoa," said Dawn.
"I know," said Mary Anne. Then, she pointed to the grass. "This is where I found the cigar. The flowers I planted got destroyed."
Then, we left there to chat in a plaza where we were staying until after the mystery is solved.
