Once upon a time there lived four great friends named Shea, Ondine, Charles and Marshall. Shea was funny, Ondine loved animals and was really good at computers, Charles was fit, strong and kind and Marshall was super intelligent. One Sunday afternoon they were bored so they decided to go to the aquarium. When they got there Charles who was always hungry insisted that they get something to eat and Shea (who was always hungry too) quickly agreed. They went to the food shop in the foyer of the Aquariuam to get their snacks but when they got there the ladies serving behind the counter were very sad and upset. Shea asked them why were they crying. The ladies explained that their favorite sea creatures had been kidnapped! Ondine was horrified and knew they had to help rescue the sea creatures. Marshall whipped out his notepad and started collecting clues while Ondine opened the laptop that she took everywhere with her.

Charles begins the search near the penguins. He tries to open the door but it is locked. So he kicks in the metal door with his powerful legs. Inside there was a bag full of squid with small black and white feathers everywhere. Charles now feels sad and hopes whoever has taken the penguins is not hurting them.

Marshall continues to search for clues by the shark tank. He finds a shark tooth and a thin patch of water. He follows the path to the employees’ office.

Shea who has forgotten how hungry was begins her search near the seahorse tanks. She is joined by Charles who is eating nachos—he has not forgotten about his hunger. He tells Shea about his clues from the penguin exhibit. Shea is surprised because she also found a small tentacle and wondered what it was from. Now they know whoever was in the penguin exhibit was also near the seahorses.

Ondine joins Shea and Charles at the seahorse tanks. She sees fingerprint smudges all over the glass tanks. She scans the fingerprints and searches the police database for suspects. Five results are found…

** Ondine looked at her computer and is horrified… **

Ondine couldn’t believe what her computer said, but when she looked up E.E. Imp was standing in front of them all. The four friends talked with him to see what he knew about the kidnapping. He said he didn’t know about the animal kidnapping; he was coming to steal the penguins but they were already gone. They locked him in a closet so he wouldn’t get away then ran off to find Billy the Big Nose Monster. Charles dressed up like E.E. Imp to trick Billy into telling him where the missing animals were. They found his house on Google and drove to it. After he was disguised, Charles walked up to his door. Billy seemed excited to see him and let him in his house. Charles looked around his house and found some suspicious items. He found a bucket of fish that was almost empty, a bag that had some squid hanging out of it and a wet pair of shoes by the door. Billy told Charles (who he thought was E.E. Imp) that he heard about a kidnapping at the aquarium. He asked Charles if he knew who committed the crime. Charles, with a disguised voice, said, “No, I do not. Do you?” Billy whispered, “Yes, I do”. Just then, a loud horn sounded from out front. Charles ran out of his house and met his friends at the van. When they opened the door, Charles shouted, “I know who took the animals!”

“It was Billy the Big Nose Monster that stole the animals,” cried Charles. “OK, what do we do now?” Shea asked. Marshall suggested that they call the FBI for some assistance (Charles wanted to run in and take care of business himself). Ondine pulled out her ipad and looked up the contact information for the FBI. “They said they’re on their way,” stated Ondine after she placed the call. Unfortunately, Charles was already running into Billy’s house. The kids rushed after him.

Charles wrestled Billy to the floor while Shea, Ondine, and Marshall got rope, duct tape, and a chair to tie Billy to. **“Where are you keeping the animals?”** demanded Charles! Billy’s mouth was taped shut, so he couldn’t answer. Charles stayed to guard Billy, Marshall waited outside for the FBI agents, and Shea and Ondine searched for the animals.

Ondine noticed some water leading to the basement. The girls tiptoed down the stairs in the pitch black. They heard some splashing and felt the walls for a light switch. Luckily, the girls found the light switch before they fell into the HUMONGOUS shark and seahorse pool that was in the basement. “We found them!” shouted Shea. “Wait,” said Ondine. “What about the penguins?”

The girls continued to search the basement for the penguins. They found a door that felt as cold as an ice cube and when they pushed it open, they saw the penguins slipping and sliding on their ice playground. “Great work,” said Shea. “I’m so happy we found all of the animals.”

Suddenly the girls heard thunderous footsteps above them. It was the FBI storming the house. The girls ran up the stairs and shouted, “we found all of the animals!” The FBI agents arrested Billy the Big Nose Monster, returned all the animals safely to the aquarium, and gave the children a medal of honor for their bravery.

“Wake up!” whispered Ondine. “We’re at the aquarium.” “What?” said Shea. “Where’s my medal?” “What medal?” Ondine asked. “The medal I was given for saving the animals” said Shea. “I think you were dreaming,” Ondine protested. The girls got out of the car and walked with Marshall and Charles to the aquarium. Charles insisted that they go to the food court first (he was hungry).
