'Ello everyone! I cannot believe I haven't posted for about 4-5 months! School is asking so much of me and Fanfiction wasn't one of my primary worries. Anyhoo, I actually came across this whiel doing a paper on Uranus for science, and decided to finish it! I hope you enjoy this chapter, it's pretty long. Thanks for reviewing even when I didn't post! It really motivates me to finish my stories. You're the best.

Toadstep Discovers CATs.
Cinderheart said she found something really important, and we all believed her since she was never the "Oh my gosh a spider" type of girl. We sat in the lobby of the hotel staring at her laptop's screen. Lionblaze was the first to speak.
"So, how do we know this isn't just some scary tale? I mean, it is going to be halloween in a few weeks."
Cinderheart shook her head.
"Someone told me this before I even searched it up. Something is definately going on."
Dovewing stood nearby typing rapidly on her laptop. She looked up.
"So, how come I can't find that website on my computer?"
"Or my phone." Blossomfall, the girl I had a crush on added. Cinderheart nodded vigourousely.
"That's the point. This has something to do with the spirits."
At once, Hollyleaf slammed the book she was reading. "There we go. Spirits. I won't believe it. It's not scientifically possible."
"So then how come people are being killed because of this?" Lionblaze pointed out.
Briarlight agreed. "Yea, a lot of people have been disappearing in that place."
Hollyleaf shook her head. "Well, I still won't believe it! How do you know this isn't just some serial killer?!" She then spun around and whisked off.
Lionblaze chuckled. "What's gotten into her?"
Cinderheart shrugged, then said, "Don't you guys see? This came to us, which means we need to solve this mystery!"
I couldn't believe this. "You're not saying we're going to go into some haunted place filled with dead bodies, are you?"
Ivypool was excited. "Yea! We can become Ghosthunters!"
I scoffed. "Did you hear what happened to those ghost hunters?"
"Yes, but I don't exactly believe in scary stories, so for me, this is just going to be like an adventure!" Ivypool replied. I rolled my eyes. Lionblaze stood up.
"Well, we can't let Firestar know." He said.
Ivypool nodded. "Yea, he'll freak!"
Lionblaze chuckled again. "If Hollyleaf didn't already tell him."
Cinderheart smiled, then said, "So I guess we'll call ourselves Ghosthunters now?" I stopped her.
"I've thought of a better name: CATs." Everyone looked at me blankly.
I grinned. "Creepy Activity Trackers."
Breezepelt Scorns CATs.
Typical Thunderkids. Letting their silly imaginations get the best of them. A tour guide was going over some boring facts about the Eiffel Tower and we were supposed to be taking notes on everything but no one was interested. They were all whispering about that silly castle thing and soon the tour guide gave up and began reading the map to see where to take us next. I walked over to Antpelt who was watching something Lionblaze was drawing out. Ugh, Lionblaze.
"What are you mousebrains doing now?" I asked. Lionblaze looked up at me through narrowed eyes.
"Can we trust you?" He said. I roll my eyes, and resist the urge to knock him on the head.
"Yes, you can trust me."
Lionblaze lowers his voice.
"We're planning our mission to the haunted castle." I laugh so loudly the tour guide looks over for a moment.
"Do you seriously believe in that stupidness?" I tell him between laughs.
"If you really don't believe it, come with us and see for yourself." He replies. I nod.
"Sure thing, I'll come…..to laugh when you find nothing!" I keep laughing. Lionblaze rolls his eyes, then turns back toward his map.
"So, we'll leave tonight, when everyone's asleep. Hopefully, we'll be done in under an hour, and come back before everyone wakes up."
"How would we get back in the building?" Ivypool asks. Lionblaze turns to her.
"We'll get someone who's not coming to let us in." He says. I scoff.
"Isn't everyone going? Everyone who is dumb enough to believe this stuff, at least." Lionblaze shakes his head.
"I don't think Hollyleaf is going." A voice interuppts him.
"Oh yes I am." Hollyleaf stand nearby tapping her foot. "First of all, you were supposed to be taking notes about the Eiffel Tower so you won't flunk the history test when we get back. Second, I'm not letting my brothers go traipsing around some unknown place people were murdered. That is, if they really were murdered." Lionblaze rolls his eyes.
"Fine."
Mousewhisker is NOT Scared
Light washed over my eyelids. I blinked. I pushed the blanket off me and walked over to the window. Pushing aside the light curtains, I peered out at the pitch black sky. I groaned. New moon. Could things get any more creepy?
"Mousewhisker?" A voice whispered from the other side of the room. Berrynose. I turn around.
"Did you hear the code yet?" He continues. Yesterday, Lionblaze and the rest of us had come up with a code that meant: Come to the lobby as quiet as possible and get ready for the biggest fright of your life. Well, not exactly that, but something similar. He even told us don't put on pajamas so we can go straight to the masion. But there is no possible way I will be scared. Not with everyone else watching. Besides what was the worst that could happen? Right? Berrynose's voice broke me out of my thoughts.
"Mousewhisker? Are you alive?" I turn back to him.
"Yea. I'm fine." Another noise sounds from our room door.
Knock, knock, knock, knock. In other words: Get out here now. I turn to Berrynose.
"Wake up Foxleap!" He shakes the ginger who was snoring soundly on his bed. I then ran to the door. Lionblaze.
"Are you guys ready?" He whispers. I nod. Berrynose was now walking towards the door with an incredibely sleepy Foxleap leaning on his shoulder. All of us tiptoe out of our room and pass the other rooms. Knocking to make sure they were awake. Soon everyone was awake and we were all creeping past Firestar's room, as quietly as possible. I hear a noise behind me.
"Ah..ah...ah-" Tigerheart clasps his hand over Dovewing's face. Everyone sighs. We begin walking again.
Dovewing sneezes.
Everyone tenses.
We sigh again.
Until Firestar's door knob begins to turn.
"Quick everyone! Hide!" Lionblaze whispers fiercely. But where can you hide in an empty lobby? I slide into the broom closet. A few kids follow me. Except Foxleap. Lionblaze pushes him out. I stare at him.
What the heck? I mouth to him. He shruggs then whispers,
"He's the craziest, so Firestar will believe his excuse more!" I shrugg. He had a good point. I then peer out of the crack in the closet. Firestar is talking to Foxleap.
"What are you doing?" He says, clearly annoyed. Foxleap looks up innocently.
"I was looking for a bathroom." He replies. Firestar looks confused now.
"There's a bathroom in your hotel room!" Foxleap face palms himself.
"Oh that makes a lot more sense." Foxleap says before pretending to go to his room. Firestar shakes his head and walks back into the room. Everyone runs out of their hiding spot. Ivypool glares at Dovewing. They seemed to be having a bit of a feud. We all walk out into the front of the hotel. Cinderheart opens her map.
"Okay…...so we should go…uh...it's not on the map." She says. Breezepelt laughs.
"That's because it's not real! When will you Thunderclan idiots figure that out?" Cinderheart glares at him as Hollyleaf whips the map out of her hand.
"Don't worry Cinderheart," She says. "We just need to go to the place this whole mess started. We'll figure this out." Breezepelt looks confused.
"I though you were on my side, and didn't believe in this!" He says. Hollyleaf shruggs.
"I hate you more than I hate science being proven wrong, so..." She then glanced at the map and Breezepelt rolled his eyes.
"I found it! At this street!" Everyone peers at the map. Lionblaze smirks.
"It's go time!" He says. I wanted it to be go time-this could be my chance to prove to Hollyleaf I'm not a wimp!
