"Ugh, I'm sooo tired!" Cloe complained.
"Yeah, but tired in a good way, Angel" Sasha pointed out, holding up her shopping bags.
"Totally! We're gonna rock this Paris-mission!" Cloe said eagerly, while looking through her new clothing.
"I wonder what the gig is all about…" Yasmin said, looking out of the window in their Fashion Magazine Office.
"I've got it! How 'bout we text Byron and ask him what it's about? Sure he can give some info on this, right?" Jade asked.
They all agreed, and Jade pulled out her phone to send him a text.
The answer came shortly after in a videotaped text. They all came near the phone, looking at Byron talking to the camera in his thick British accent:
"Hey girls! First, let me start by saying that you are all going to be very excited about this gig I've got for you!" He lowered his voice, while coming nearer to the camera: "Something is very wrong here in Paris. Yes, I'm here at the moment, I've seen it with my very own eyes: Nobody, and I repeat, nobody wants to do any modelling! It seems like all the models find an excuse NOT to walk the runway! Do you think I'm crazy? Well, I will see you girls very soon here is Paris where you can all see it with your own eyes!" He looked over his shoulder at something the camera couldn't reach. "Oh, I've got to go. Bye now!"
The girls looked suspiciously at each other. "No-one wants to rock the runway?!" Sasha shouted, clearly surprised.
The other girls looked just as shocked. "That doesn't make any sense! ANYONE would wanna rock the runway, right?" Yasmin said, holding her hands at each of her chins.
"I don't get it! I would LOVE to walk that runway" Cloe said, then she gasped: "Guys! This is our chance! We can head down there and walk the runways, and clearly no-one will be our competition, seeing as no one wants to rock it anyway, and I will be known, and I will become famous in no time! Oh my, I will get incredible outfits! Oh, I will have to walk the red carpet, I better start practicing, I don't even know how I will do that and…"
Sasha interrupted her: "Angel, take it easy! Nobody said anything about walking the runway. Our mission is to solve this, not take advantage. And who said you will walk the runway?"
Cloe was still out of breath from her long speech, and she looked around, as if she came back to reality.
"Oh, you're right, I just imagined how awesome it would be."
Yasmin pulled her arm around her shoulder to comfort her, "Cloe, what is awesome is that we get a chance to come to Paris on a mission, solving a mystery!" she explained to her, and Cloe nodded, as if she finally realized the importance of this trip. "You're right!"
They all started to work in the articles they needed to finish before the trip, so the magazine would be ready to be released before going. That way, they could start working on new articles while being on the trip.
The next days in school were difficult.
The girls worked hard on their homework and making school-work ahead of time to catch up on what they would be missing while they were on the trip.
"Ugh, it's so HARD!" Cloe complained and sighed loudly.
"yeah", Jade agreed, "remind me again why we're doing this."
Sasha looked harshly at both of them: "Girls, we have an important mission in Paris! Don't you think it's important?"
After being reminded of this, the girls continued the homework, this time a little more motivated.
Though, no-matter how motivated they were, it was hard to push the thought of the upcoming trip out of their heads; they were too excited.
"I'm so glad we finished the last articles, so we have time for all this school-work" Yasmin said one of the last days before going.
"Imagine having to make that with a deadline AND the homework", she continued, and they all agreed.
"Let's finish the last of this school-work, and then we're ready to walk the French streets! I already packed all of my clothes, how about you guys?" Sasha said and looked around.
The other girls weren't completely done packing, and they agreed to go home and pack the rest together after school.
As Jade said; "That way, we're sure none of us forget anything!"
