Chapter 2
Chick Ville Manor stood silent. Terrifyingly, Mya looked up to her papa’s house but there was a weird light flickering. Outside , summer leaves flew around the garden and the bushy trees were like big fluffy clouds in the sky . Mya pulled out her key and unlocked the door . It flew open but instead of the cosy warm radiators that she was used to , the house was very cold like the artic it was very unwelcoming. Inside, shadows moved their dark, dusty and cold fingers into every freezing cold corner.
Mya and Toby raced upstairs and headed for her bedroom. Toby sniffed around,
Looking for clues. Inside her room, Mya was happy she had been sent off to boarding school. Her books where still lined up neatly on the book shelves and her paintings and notes , Fragments of stories and plans for big adventures , were still stuck to walls covering the dirty faded , blue wallpaper. With a sigh of relief , she could see her plane bedside clock. It was safe!
Curious , Toby picked up the clock and opened up the back of the weird clock Inside, there was the last thing that you would think of it was a diagram , looked in her dad’s cool distinctive style. It looked like a sort of fancy prototype of a new sort of sky-ship powered by the stars. Amazed, Toby woofed , “Wow, this is probably what they are after if your papa has invented a huge sky-ship that is powered by stars and is worth 1 billion pounds…and it would also put a lot of people out of there business too. No wonder he has a lot of enemies.’
‘ So that is what all the big fuss is about ; Mya
Whispering, Looking at the paintings.
‘Indeed; came an very icy voice from the faraway doorway.
Whirling round Mya and Toby gasped . Instantly , Mya recognized her Dad’s old best friend, professor bluebird. He had passed his hand through his blue hair and smirked…but it was not a nice smirk at all it was a very bad smirk. It lacked warmth, ‘I’ve been waiting a very long time for you to lead me to Mike’s design. I knew that he had hidden it somewhere a long time ago. I will take it if you don’t mind; he said very confidently, snatching the design from Mya.
