"Lilo?" "Yes." "Ive been thinking." Jemma said. "We need to put the boats and brease painting back." "BACK! We risked loads! Im not helping you put it back!" Lilo said "What you said, about not steeling, it sort of meant something once the police came after me." Jemma said. "lets fake the painting and put the real one back, during opening hours." "Have you lost your mind! We cant put it back someone will see!" Lilo protested "But if we dont that poor man will be arested for what we did, just like Ann." Jemma said. That was the riskyest thing she had said all day so she was realy hoping it would pay of. "Ok, but we read the papers first just to be positive the police think were a man."
So the two criminals headed of to town in serch for a paper they new would have them in. It was called CRIMEWATCH and it came out daily with the most shoking crimes of the week printed on the first page. Jemma bumped the stand and they all came tubaling down. "So sorry." she said putting them all onto the shelf exept one wich she hid in her coat. "Got it Lilo." she said bondung away from the stand "The idiots didnt even realise it was gone!" she passed it to Lilo who started to read…
PAINTING THEFT FAIL! In an act of stupidaty art thef Colin Days made it easy for us to detect his crimes with a trail of unbelivebly ovius clues. The reseptionist of the musium says " I knew there was something fishy going on when his voice changed. It was realy all i had to go by as his face was so well covered. Once i suspected him i looked up the name he gave me Lilly-Anna and there was no reporter job with those details, not even the same paper!" Thats not the only evidance he left! The clumsy theif also droped his credit card! Its nice to know that art theft is so easyaly stoped.
"And thats it." Lilo said handing the paper back to Jemma. "We have to give it back, this time we did to well." "Lets get it back to the house first though, we need the fake." so they poped over to the bush and secretly tuged it out. They hadnt dressed properly so they looked suspitios and had to head home fast. "Scan it quick, we need to be at the musium before it closes." Jemma pestered. "Done." Lilo shouted only afew seconds after. "Then get the real one we need to go!" Jemma caled and they hurryed to the musium.
It wasnt hard to get past reseption because everyone was to busy laughing at the reseptionist to let her do any proper work. "Poor woman." Lilo wispered "Dont wory everyone will be laughing at crimewatch when were done." Jemma wispered back ans they hurryed of to the toilets. "Put it in the loo, take the top of amd hide in the boxy part." "Ok, see you in five." Lilo called after Jemma as she walked away. Lilo walked into a cubical and unsrewed the lid of the toilet. Then she placed the painting in and put the lid back. FFFLLLUUUUSSSSHHHHnow all she had to do was find Jemma.
"Its back, who is going to phone the police?" Lilo asked. "I will." Jemma volenteered. This is how the call ended up.

Jemma hung up before they could ask any more questions. "Why did you not use your real name?" Lilo asked "because thier looking for a Jemma Robertson arnt they? I didnt start shoplifting when you turned up." Jemma said "Lets get out of here before the police tern up." Jemma said and she pulled Lilo Out of the musium and along winding allys so the police cars wouldnt spot them. Finaly they reached home grabbed the fake painting and set of again for MrGlam's gold workshop.
"Welcome little girls i am the only, Mr Glam! Ruler of the gold trade, bars, plating get it all now at Mr Galm World the world of gold!" The hologram blared out this same noisy mesage over and over. "Hello girls welcome to Glam World, the world of gold." Said the bored voice of a middle age man standing behind them. The girls spun around expecting to see another holagram but this time it was a real person. "Where can we find Mr Glam?" Lilo asked. The man only pointed them towards a coridoor and the girls walked down it trying to find his ofice. It wasnt hard, the door was gold plated.
"You want gold? I got gold!" said the real Mr Glam as they walked into his ofice. "We want gold but not to pay!" Jemma said and Lilo shrank back. "What are you sugesting?" "We stole the painting from Mr Days we replaced it with a fake that we hid in the musium toilets and told him were it was, we want to swap, art for gold." Jemma said. "Pass it over." Said Mr Glam. "Gold first!" Lilo said bravely stepping up from the shadows. "If i have to "swap" this painting for gold then i want to know its real. Ive been known to be dishonest but this is a new level of iligal." Mr Glam held out his hand expectingly and Jemma reluctantly passed it over. "If you had done your reserch you would know i like art, which is why im insulted when you come to me with a childidish forgery." "Im sorry, is there anything i can get, i meab steel for you Mr Glam?" "One thing" he said "The virmin computer virus."
