If these dolls could talk part 2
We walked to the hotel, we needed to figure out the truth a little more; what we had found was difficult to believe or didn't match to what we already knew. We needed to find out who killed Ali's sister Courtney; everyone was being so sketchy about it. Mona was switching between The Radley and school, so I was reckoning whether it wasn't just her sending the texts, I had been conjuring up different theories, none of which made sense so far...
The hotel name didn't look very welcoming either- to make this experience even worse.
"Lost woods Resort" I read, "Great name for a hotel in the middle of nowhere".
"Resorts are supposed to be happy places" Hanna said in a daze, "Remind me why we're here again".
"To try and figure out why A's telling us to stay away from here" Spencer replied," They're hiding something that could reveal who murdered Courtney".
" You know, Spence" Ali began, "Considering it's my sister, it's kinda nice of you guys to help me and my family out" She smiled, "Considering how pleasant your dad is being at the moment".
"If we figure this out, we will find out who killed her and eventually find out who A is" Emily smiled.
"And hopefully have a senior year to remember; not to scar" Aria added.
" It's already congrats to us, we made it this far together, no deaths" I said, " Well real deaths" I looked at Ali.
" I had my reasons" Ali said, we reached the door- we seemed reluctant to go in, like, who would go and stay in a so called resort in the middle of nowhere? Nobody was the answer in case you didn't get that, I hope you did though.
"Okay, so we should go in, I'm starting to get creeped out here" I rubbed my arm, " And cold".
We all walked in and got a room, for some reason we couldn't get the second room, that made me think of a few things, I thought that when we talked about Courtney we should say Ali, seeing as A was gullible enough to not know they killed her instead of Ali. We all went along with the idea, I swore we had some sort of mind reading skill between us being the best of friends.
We were there for the entire night, we 'temporarily borrowed' the spare hotel key for the room next door, we walked in and saw the walls plastered with newspaper reports about when Ali was 'missing', the other deaths that had happened within the last 20 years or so, everything that could help us.
"This is so creepy" Hanna quivered, we had just found A's lair, in the middle of what seemed nowhere. This seemed totally A like if you ask me.
"One step closer to our aim" Spencer said in a daze, walking back to the door.
"Last one back gets to sleep on the floor" I said as we ran back into our room and locked the door, me and Aria returned to key to the desk. We slept good considering we had just found A's lair.
The next morning we got out of there quickly, we went to Aria's - that was where we were supposed to be, in the hope that none of our parents had contacted each other we walked straight up to Aria's room, we couldn't exactly talk about what had happened last night because Mike and Byron were home. We started talking about going to New York with our boyfriends.
"Next weekend then?" Hanna said as Mike walked past to go into his room. I was pretty sure he muttered "The power puff girls meet again".
"There's three power puff girls" Ali added, "Miscount much".
With everyone being home we were limited to what we could talk about, we needed to sort this doll situation out, but these dolls could talk, so we had to watch our step.
