House of Thunder:

A sad Trudy looked tearfully at the empty fishbowl. Victor Sr. grabbed the collar from Trudy's hands.

"My dear little Solomon," said Trudy.

"Sorry, I'm so sorry, said Amber.

"Is this your cat?" Asked Victor sr.

"No, I found her in the garden and she looked very sweet and...," said Amber, but Victor sr. interrupted her.

"Enough! Shut it! If I catch anyone with animals I'll kick them out of the house, this isn't an animal shelter," said Victor sr.

"Come on, let's go," said Eddie to Alfie.

"Go where?" Asked Alfie.

"The cellar," said Eddie.

"But what about Trudy?" Asked Alfie.

"Now," said Eddie.

Eddie and Alfie walked out of the kitchen and sneaked down to the cellar.

"Alfie it's just a fish," said Eddie.

"So, I think it's sad," said Alfie.

"If that fish hadn't been eaten, Victor wouldn't have been upstairs, we couldn't have gone down the tunnel," said Eddie.

Suddenly Victor Sr. appeared behind Eddie and Alfie and grabbed them by the neck and lifted them up.

Back in the kitchen and Nina, Amber, Aaron, Patricia and KT were busy comforting Trudy.

"I'm so sorry, that kitty was in the garden and it meowed so sweetly. I couldn't have known she would do this, either," said Amber.

"Amber," said Patricia.

"I'll just buy you a new fish," said Amber.

"Amber no," said Nina.

"I'll send Uncle Isaac a letter and have him send you a new one," said Amber.

"Be quiet," said Nina, putting her hand over Amber's mouth.

"I don't want a new fish. It's my destiny," said Trudy.

"Your destiny?" Asked KT.

"Yes, I was not born to be happy," said Trudy.

"Don't say that Trudy," said Patricia.

"That's not true," said Nina.

"Of course you deserve to be happy, You deserve more than everyone else," said KT.

"First Isaac gone and now Solomon, it had to be this way," said Trudy.

"No, of course it didn't," said Nina.

"What happened? Asked Mason, as he entered the house.

"Solomon was eaten by a cat," said KT.

"Oh no not Solomon, and he was so special," said Mason.

"Yes, he really was," said a crying Trudy.

"Hey, don't cry," said Mason. "Do you want me to walk you home?"

"I can't go home now, I still have to cook for you," said Trudy.

"Then we'll cook," said Nina.

"Yes?" Asked Trudy.

"Yeah, of course," said Amber.

"It's not a problem," said Nina.

"Thank you sweeties," said Trudy.

Mason walked Trudy out of the kitchen and packed her things to take her home.

"I'm sorry about this," said Amber.

"Where are Alfie and Eddie?" Asked Nina.

"No idea," said KT.

"And where's Victor?" Asked Aaron.

Nina, Amber, Aaron, Patricia and KT got worried and realized something wasn't right.

Back in the cellar. Victor Sr. held Eddie and Alfie tightly by their necks.

"I ask again, where is the mini house?" Asked Victor sr.

"What mini house? What are you talking about," said Alfie.

"I'm sick and tired of your excuses!" Shouted Victor sr.

Victor sr. grabbed Eddie and Alfie even tighter and lifted them higher.

"Where is that mini house!" Shouted Victor sr.

Victor sr. looked at the mirror and saw Victor jr. Victor sr. released Eddie and Alfie and the two boys fled out of the cellar.

In the meantime, the rest of the club was in Nina and Amber's room.

"How could she have left so quickly? I just wanted to cuddle up with it for a while. I don't know how to make this right," said Amber.

"It wasn't on purpose," said KT.

"No, of course not," said Amber.

"Well, then," said KT.

"But Trudy is not the only victim," said Amber, showing her hand that had a cat scratch on it

Eddie and Alfie stormed into the room, being in a total panic.

"Victor!" Yelled Eddie.

"He's gone mad!" Yelled Alfie.

"What has he done?" Asked Aaron.

"He was in the cellar," said Alfie.

"He grabbed us," said Eddie.

"Really inhumanly strong," said Alfie.

"He was so inhuman to Trudy and me too," said Amber.

"Thank goodness you guys got out of there," said KT.

"What were you doing in the cellar?" Asked Nina.

"I wanted to take a good look at the task," said Eddie.

"Eddie why did you take such a risk? We've a plan," said Patricia.

"Yeah, your own plan, and then you don't stick to it," said Aaron.

"I'm sorry, okay? I didn't know Victor was gonna do this," said Eddie.

Nina got up, without saying anything and walked to the door.

"Where are you going?" Asked Amber.

"To get tools," said Nina.

"What kind of tools?" Asked Amber.

"Books," said Nina.

"Fabian's books?" Asked Aaron.

"Yes, perhaps I can use them to solve the riddle," said Nina.

Back in the cellar. Victor Sr. walked angrily toward the mirror.

"You wretch," said Victor sr. ready to scold Victor jr. but then he started to realize something. "The mini house."

"Yes, the mini house is gone," said Victor sr.

"Yes, indeed it was gone here from the house, but my head feels fine, I don't need to go back to the mirror. I'm getting stronger!" Said Victor sr.

And then Victor sr. had another headache attack.

"But not strong enough yet," said Victor jr.

Without Victor sr. and Victor jr. noticing it, someone was watching them from the secret room.

In the meantime in the villa. Fabian woke up and saw that Geoffrey was taking fluids out of the glass again. The door opened and Fabian closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. Caroline walked out of the room and walked over to Geoffrey.

"And?" Asked Caroline

"It's enough for now," said Geoffrey.

"Good, because we can't fail like we did last time," said Caroline.

"We won't," said Geoffrey.

"Starting tomorrow, we're one step closer to achieving our goal," said Caroline.

"We'll do it, my darling," said Geoffrey.

Fabian had no idea what Geoffrey and Caroline were talking about, but he did realize that they were up to no good with the fluid.

Back at the house. Nina was in Eddie's room, sitting on Fabian's bed and grabbing his books. Nina flipped through one of the books and became a little emotive because it was the book that she and Fabian used to solve the first riddle she had ever found. Suddenly the door opened and Jerome, Otis and Mara entered the room.

"Don't be alarmed it's just us," said Jerome.

"Yeah, we're bringing the auction stuff here because it won't fit in the room anymore," said Otis.

"Is it okay if we put this stuff here for a few days?" Asked Mara.

"It's not up to me, I think you should ask Eddie, it's his room," said Nina.

"Eddie said it's fine," said Mara.

Suddenly there was a noise in the hallway, Nina, Jerome, Mara and Otis ran out. When they arrived they saw Victor Sr. and that he had stumbled over the stuff for the auction and he didn't look to happy.

"What is this junk doing here in my house?" Asked Victor sr.

Neither Nina, Mara, Jerome or Otis said anything, because they had trouble keeping in their laughter.

"I'll give you half an hour and if that junk isn't cleaned up, I'll turn it into firewood!" Threatened Victor sr.

"But it's for the auction," said Mara.

"Half an hour!" Shouted Victor.

"But it's for Uncle Isaac," said Mara.

"Yeah," said Jerome.

Victor Sr. said nothing and walked up stairs, throwing things that were upstairs downstairs.

"Well, he probably won't help us," said Otis.

A few minutes later almost all residents were helping to put the stuff for the auction in the garden, except Amber because she was busy making dinner. Amber dropped something in the pan and wanted to grab it, causing her to burn her hand and she started to scream in pain, Nina quickly grabbed a jug of water and Amber put her hand in it.

"Are you okay now?" Asked Nina.

"I'm fine now," said Amber, taking her hand out of the water.

"You should have just seen Victor," said Nina.

"Did you see the bruises on Alfie and Eddie's necks? It just gives me goose bumps," said Amber.

"We'll be even more careful with Victor now," said Nina.

"Hey," said Mason, entering the kitchen.

"Hey, how's Trudy?" Asked Amber.

"She's very sad," said Mason.

"Well, I hope it gets better soon, because if I have to do this every day," said Amber.

"Can I give you a hand?" Asked Mason.

"No, you better ask if you can go help others," said Amber.

"But they already sent me to you," said Mason.

"You can help me," said Nina, handing Mason a handful of plates.

And while Nina and Mason set the table and Amber was busy eating, the other residents were still busy putting things in the garden.

"Thank you for helping us," said Mara.

"No problem. Anything for my favorite uncle," said Alfie.

"You can turn your piggy bank around if you want to save a village," said Eddie.

"What are you talking about?" Asked Otis.

"Well if you get £100 for this it's a lot," said Eddie.

"They need a £150,000," said Jerome.

"What?" Asked Alfie.

"How are you going to do that?" Asked Eddie.

"We don't know yet," said Mara.

"Right, that sounds really resecuring," said Eddie.

The residents continued to clear out the hallway and putting the stuff for the auction in the garden.

Back at the villa. Fabian was lying in bed having flashbacks about the day KT was kidnapped. He was remembering a man who came into the house and had some kind of fang in his hands and then felt pain and eventually lost consciousness.

Back in the house. Nina was scooping the food onto the plates and Mason was setting them down.

"You did a really good job with Trudy. It's nice that you brought her home," said Nina.

"It wasn't a problem," said Mason.

"You're sweet, you know that," said Nina.

"I'm actually not very good with friends, I've never really had friends," said Mason.

"How can that be, you're such a nice guy," said Nina. Nina.

"My father used to travel a lot, so we were never in the same place for more than 3 months. Yeah and then making friends doesn't really make much sense," said Mason.

"So you never had any friends at all?" Asked Nina.

"Well, one friend has always been me, but that's a bit of a sad story," said Mason.

"You don't have to talk about it, if you don't want to," said Nina.

"I'd like to have friends, just to share things with," said Mason.

"I can understand that," said Nina.

"I thought maybe you could help me. I was hoping you could help me," said Mason.

But before Nina could say anything, the other occupants entered the living room and sat down at the table.

"Thank you guys again for helping us," said Mara.

"Yeah, otherwise we'd still be at it," said Jerome.

"Let's hope it doesn't rain tonight," said Mara.

The other residents laughed, but the laughter was soon drowned out by the sound of thunder.

"Or now," said Jerome.

"Run for it," said Otis.

The residents got up and ran as fast as they could towards the garden and there was another clap of thunder.

"Oh no, thunder!" Yelled Amber.

Amber quickly ran into the kitchen and hid in one of the kitchen cabinets. And now no one noticed that someone was walking through the house. The mysterious person was walking towards the painting with the Frobisher-Smythe couple on it. The mysterious person pulled on a silver wire. Suddenly a giant silver spider appeared from the selling.

Who is the person who made the spider appear? Was it the same person who had helped the club before? Or was it someone else entirely.
