"Kassy, are you about this?" Kay asked.
"Yes, Kay, don't worry, the diamond is still here, I know it." Kassy said, letting out a deep sigh, as she stepped out of the car, followed by Cameron and Jonathan.
The four of them stood on the sidewalk, looking up at the New York National Museum.
"Well, come on," Kay said, as she walked towards the front door.
"Kassy...Kassy...come on," Cameron said, snapping Kassy back from her daydream.
"Coming," she called, as she ran to catch up.
Kay led them to the room where the Himalayan Pink Diamond had been displayed. The display hall was massive, and the sound of their footsteps echoed throughout the room, as they entered, ducking under the yellow police tape, that was still there, telling everyone that something was wrong.
And there it was, standing in the middle of this grand display hall, the beautiful pedestal, it looked lonely, its glass case empty. Kassy felt herself being drawn to the glass case, as well as the diamond inside, and she reached out, her fingers searching the side of the pedestal, until she found it, a small button, indented on the side of the pedestal, known only to those few who knew it was there. She pressed the button, revealing the beautiful diamond, as a hidden compartment in the bottom of the case opened, and the pink gem rose from her hiding place.
"Voila," Kassy announced.
Kay, Cameron, and Jonathan turned around to see the pink diamond magically back in its glass case, and Kassy standing beside the pedestal, wearing a big cheshire cat grin.
"Really, how...it was here the whole time?" Kay asked.
"Yep," Kassy said in an even tone, her eyes once again locked on the beautiful, sparkling pink gem, inside the glass case.
"Kassy…" Kay said, as she began to walk across the room, but was cut off by the sudden breeze of a bullet whizzing by her, and the sound of shattered glass falling upon the marble floor.
Kassy stood there, she eyed the blonde haired women holding the gun.
"Kassy…"
The women didn't turn around, instead keeping her eyes, and her gun trained on Kassy, her eyes ever so often flickering to the pink diamond.
"Don't move a muscle boys, now then, Kassy, sweetheart, give me the diamond," the women said.
"Wait...wait, Kassy... do you know her," Kay asked, her own gun pointed at the mystery women.
"Yeah...yeah, guys, meet my mother." Kassy said, anger edging into her voice.

Well, I hope you enjoyed this chapter? Sorry it took me a while to update, I was wresting with a couple of ideas about where I wanted things to go, but I think I've finally figured everything out.
