Max and I were having a casual day. We were hanging out with our friends and studying for college. After five full days of cramming, we got good grades on our finals. We were just enjoying the days. In a week, it would almost be summer break. Max and I were both excited. After a tiring year, we finally get a break that is eight weeks long.

Then, I went over to Mark's house. I used to be friends with Rodick, but now since he was mean to me I stopped being friends with him. Mark's house was boring. There were just books about wars because both of his parents are historians. Mark has been living alone for a week so far because his parents found a tomb in Egypt. He has been sometimes living in his friends' houses and sometimes alone. But what I realized about him was that he was an amazing cook. I love his blueberry muffins. They are delish!

"My parents were going on a train called the Gizan Xpress. It stretches over 2,000 miles!" 

    "Woah," I gawked in amazement. 

    After that I went home. When my friends went home, I got a call. Max and I raced into my room and I picked it up immediately.

    "Hello, who is this?" I asked nevously.

    "You don't remember me?" The voice said.

    Immediately I realized that he was Martin.

    "Hey Martin, what's up?"

    "We need your help."

    "Come to Egypt immediately with your friends, then we will explain." Chris spoke.

    "In how many days should we come?"

    "Tomorrow, because ths is urgent."

    "We bought your tickets."

    "Okay, we will be there tomorrow," I said. 

    Max quickly called all of our friends and told them to pack. I was excited but nervous, too. If Martin and Chris didn't tell us what was the mystery, it was probably a bad thing.

Wooof!!!!!!

Quiet Mutt!

Blah Blah Blah...

Max and Billy went to the kitchen to eat dinner while waiting for their friends to come. Max made his special: Noodles in Chicken Broth. His broth was amazing. I made my pizza. Everyone is saying that I should own a pizza shop, but I think it would be too much work. Mom and Dad took Greg to Disney World so we are home alone.

Mutt! Why did you poop on the floor!?!

Disgusting!

Then, they were eight rings of the doorbells. When Max and I opened the door, all of our friends were there.

    "This is going to be my first mystery!" Mark said with excitement. After dinner, Max and I are friends went home and we went to our rooms and started packing for the trip tomorrow. I packed books, energy bars, my credit card, my phone, and my teddy bear. 

Yum! Nom Nom Nom...

"Bye everybody, meet you tomorrow!" said Max and I simultaneously. "Oh, this is getting even more exciting!" screamed Mark. Then, everybody started to walk out of their yard. They all walked back on their own unless they were neighbors. It looked like everybody was excited especially Mark who was super excited because this was his first mystery.

The next morning, my friends were there. They all had their luggage and were ready to fly. Max's friends were ready, too. We had three hours until we could board the plane. I called two taxis for the ten of us. But, the taxis took 45 minutes to come! Now I was worried. We quickly came into the taxis and split off by friends. I texted my parents that everything is not going that well.

When we got to the airport, there was only about an hour left. I was getting nervous. When we finished everything the boarding was about to start any minute! Our gate was half a mile away. I found an airport cart that was off. I didn't know how to turn it on, but I bet Rohan knew how to. His dad was an F1 racer and Rohan learned a lot. He turned it on and the rest of us came in the cart. He honked at everyone and raced to the gate. HONK!! When we got there, the flight was delayed. This got me nostalgic about the time when we had to find out who took the royal crown from the Queen of England.
