Dakota took the others to the vault and soon put in the combination and revealed lots and lots of money. There was even an old envelope that seemed to be in the far back.

"Wait, there's something back there." Drake pointed out.

Bob reached in and brought out the envelope. "'From the Lawyer of Magnus Milton'?" he then read aloud.

"He's one of my ancestors," Dakota replied. "He founded this hotel in the late 1890's."

Bob opened the envelope and found a paper which was a last will and testament from, well, Magnus Milton. "Someone can read it," he said before handing the paper to Double D. "Here, Sock Boy, you can read it."

"Um... Quite..." Double D muttered before taking a look at the last will and testament. "'I, Magnus Milton, an adult residing at 802 Beverly Lane, being of sound of mind, declare this to be my Last Will and Testament. I revoke all wills and codicils previously made by me'..." he then muttered before going further into the will to get to the good part. "Oh! 'Lastly, I leave my hotel in the care and possession of James Milton, my cousin and dear friend'."

"James Milton was Herbert's brother." Dakota told the others.

"So, that's why Herbert wants the hotel." Justine said.

"Uh-huh." Dakota nodded.

"Revenge..." Justin added dramatically, which made thunder and lightning go off in the background.

This soon made all of the power in the hotel go out somehow.

"Aw, great, the hotel blew a fuse!" Spuds complained.

"Eddy, you're on my foot!" Cindy cried out.

"Sorry, Ed is on my back," Eddy replied. "Get off me!"

"Wait, wait, everyone stop, I have a solution!" Alfred said before bringing out a light and used it for all of them.

"What is that thing?" Sky asked.

"It's my pocket phaser, I always keep it handy." Alfred smiled proudly.

"Aw, I was gonna use my fire-" Eddy was about to say only for Mike to cover his mouth.

"This place is really spooky..." Bob said. "Maybe we should go to bed and try to solve this mystery in the morning?"

"What's the matter, afraid of the dark?" Jo asked.

"Of course not, are you?" Bob replied.

"Dude, I live in the dark." Jo rolled her eyes.

"I just think that it would be easier to see and explore in the morning." Bob defended.

"No, we gotta solve this mystery before something bad happens." Mike told the adult man.

They then heard Dakota scream.

"Like that?" Justine asked.

"Dakota?!" Mike called out.

"Uh-oh." Bob said.

"Come on, you guys." Mike told the others.

Everyone went back to Dakota's room and found out that the rich girl was gone.

"She's gone!" Justine gasped.

"Maybe she broke a nail." Jackson whispered.

"Guys." Travis scolded, being the most mature of the kids.

"There's a note here." June observed.

"What's it say?" Sammy asked.

"It says: 'You bring us the money or you will never see your precious heiress again, signed Herbert & Charlotte Milton'." June read aloud.

"Hey, guys, a ghost writer." Steven said before chuckling.

"Steven, stay focused!" Jackson nudged his best friend.

"Sorry." Steven said.

"But it is pretty cool though." Jackson admitted.

"I say we just give them the money." Bob suggested.

"Uncle Bob, we can't betray Dakota like this!" Stacey told him.

"We can't give up just like that!" Mike added.

"I mean, we're just mortals!" Bob replied.

Mike's group looked at each other, wondering if they should know the truth.

"We have something to tell you, kids." Mike told the others.

"What is it, Mike?" Stacey asked.

"Can you all keep secrets?" Mike asked.

"Depends on how juicy the secret is," Linda smirked. "SPILL!"

"I'm going to rip out your vocal chords in a minute!" Jo threatened.

June and Sky then grabbed the jockette's arms so that she wouldn't attack Linda.

"Well?" Samantha asked.

"Well... We're basically not exactly human..." Cindy told them.

Samantha and Linda just rolled their eyes in disbelief while Steven and Jackson looked interested.

"Yeah, right." Samantha huffed.

"We're telling you the truth!" Eddy said before fire appeared in his hands. "See?!"

Double D and Dee Dee did the same, but of course, they made ice. Abby then transformed into different kinds of animals. Duncan opened a window and made everyone come to it, and he made a tree stand up and move all around. Cindy had to think really hard and a can of root beer appeared, which of course, she drank out of.

"Are you guys mutants like those X-Men?" Bob asked the Howling Wolves.

"Sort of, we were born with powers like this." Mike replied before her eyes turned red and made Samantha and Linda's shadows come to life.

"A shadowbender." Travis noted.

"You know about shadowbending?" Mike asked.

"I do, but I don't know if I have that ability or not," Travis replied as he pointed to Duncan. "My grandmother gave me a book about The Elements, like your punk friend over there who can earthbend. She told me about a lot of stories of the one called Aang who was an airbender. Not to mention your short hotheaded friend is a firebender."

"I'm not short!" Eddy glared.

"Yes, you are." Jo told Eddy.

"When's the next full moon?" Mike asked.

Bob took out his phone and checked the weather app. "Uh, according to my data, it'll be in about an hour and a half." he then told the tomboy.

"Perfect." Mike approved.

"Why?" Bob asked. "Do you enjoy watching the moon or something?"

"You'll find out." Mike replied mysteriously.

"Great, more supernatural mystery," Bob said before looking to Steven and Jackson. "You guys must be having a field day."

"This is the best day of our lives." Steven replied.

"We're so glad that we met you guys." Jackson added.

"Come on, we better find Dakota before it's too late." Sky asked.

Bob soon took out a trash bag and filled it with money. Xeno growled and bit his pant leg to make him stop.

"What?" Bob glared before calling out. "Stacey, your dog is trying to eat me again!"

"Xeno, bad dog!" Stacey scolded. "I'm sorry, Uncle Bob, I don't know why he's doing that."

"He wants you to stop, sir." Madeline told Bob.

Xeno growled and seemed to agree with the gloomy girl.

"Hey, I'm not letting ghosts get in my way of saving a little girl!" Bob defended as he put money in the bag.

Jo then had tendrils wrap around the man's body.

"Let me go!" Bob demanded.

"Why are you doing this?" Mike asked him about the money.

"I'm getting them what they want, okay?" Bob replied. "We're giving up!"

"But Uncle Bob, we can't sell out Dakota like this," Stacey said as she picked up Xeno in her arms. "She's our friend."

"Wake up, kid, we don't even know her!" Bob defended.

"She's our friend though." Mike said.

"Then you guys can go ahead and get yourselves killed!" Bob replied.

"Okay!" Stacey said before walking off.

"STACEY!" Bob called out. "NOT YOU! Your mother would kill me if you got yourself hurt!"

"But you said we can go ahead, and our friend is in trouble," Stacey told him. "I don't envy you for having to live with the guilt!"

"I'm not talking about you!" Bob told Stacey.

"Yeah, Stupid, he's talking about them." Samantha added as she pointed to The Howling Wolves.

"Oh." Stacey said.

"Yeah, now you realize." Bob said to Stacey.

"Well, I still wanna help because Dakota is my friend, and you guys all wanna stay here, then fine, I'm going to help my friend!" Stacey said, surprisingly firmly which was an odd sight to see as she was usually a happy-go-lucky girl and was rather naive.

"We gotta work together though." Mike said.

"Your group has superpowers, and we don't." Bob said to Mike.

"Guys, we have to help them." Travis told his cousins from their adventure in Moonscar Island.

"We know," Drake replied. "We will help."

"Indeed." Luna agreed.

Travis nodded to them.

"I'm still helping my new friends." Stacey told Bob.

Xeno barked and stood beside Stacey with a nod.

"You're really stupid." Samantha said.

Bob and the kids then started to argue which annoyed The Howling Wolves.

"SHUT UP!" Jo snapped.

"Why are you guys fighting?" Stacey frowned to her friends.

"Shut up, this doesn't concern you, dummy." Linda glared.

"Why do you gotta be so mean?" Dee Dee frowned.

"This doesn't concern you, idiot." Linda glared at her now.

"You shut up!" Jo glared at Linda.

"This doesn't concern you-" Linda was about to say.

Jo grabbed Linda by her collar and slammed her into the wall. "Listen, brat, I'm getting sick and tired of you and your friend here," she then sneered. "The only reason why I won't kill you is because I was keeping my anger in check!"

"Whatever." Linda rolled her eyes.

"Sorry about her, she's just a lemon cat." Jackson said.

"A lemon cat...?" Jo glanced back oddly.

"Yeah, you know," Steven smirked. "A sourpuss!"

A rimshot was then heard like when anyone would say something funny.

"Be quiet, you two or you're next." Jo glared to Jackson and Steven.

"Jo, let her go." Mike said.

"But Mazinsky, she-" Jo tried to explain.

"I said let her go, Jo." Mike told the jockette.

"Fine..." Jo rolled her eyes and then dropped Linda like an object.

"Ow!" Linda grunted.

Samantha helped Linda up. Linda and Samantha both glared as Linda dusted herself clean.

"Okay, now, let's find Dakota." Sky told the others.

"Oh, no, I'm not doing this, you guys can do it; I'm leaving." Bob replied before he then started walk away with a bag of money, but was stopped as Mike was right in front of him.

"Drop the money and help us find Dakota now!" Mike told him.

"So, you don't want your friend to be saved?" Bob asked. "Man, and I thought you were a smart kid."

Everyone then face-palmed the man.

"Are you dense?" Cindy glared. "What Mike is saying is that we're not giving them the money!"

"Why not?" Bob asked.

"Because it belongs to Dakota, and we won't need it." Mike told Bob as she took the money bag back and put it back in Dakota's allowance vault.

"Aw, man." Bob groaned.

"Come on, we gotta find Dakota." Mike said.

Bob rolled his eyes and walked out with the kids for more ghost hunting.
