Hosea came into the house and said, “look at this blue stone I found at the beach.” He threw it on the floor and a portal opened swallowing them whole.
A screen appears. The screen read, “would you like to go to envy forest? All three children decided to go to Envy Forest. When they arrived, Penelope tripped over a stick and thought that the forest was haunted. She started to freak out and screamed.
Hosea said, “Penelope it’s not like you’re gonna get killed this soon. Penelope, Penelope??? Uhh Maggie, where is Penelope?” He paused for a moment, “Don’t tell me Maggie is gone to.”
Soon a fairy appeared she said, “Hi I’m Mila Jae! I can give you a wish. I can even give all of you wishes but your entire group is not completely present so I can only give you a wish right now.”
“Okay I wish for an unbreakable sword.” Mila gave him a golden dagger. She created three golden paths and explained that one led to Maggie, and one led to Penelope. Hosea chose to go towards Maggie. He felt a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach that he shouldn’t stay in one place for too long. He felt that Envy Forest would play with his mind.
Hosea started towards Maggie in hopes to get a great companion. Soon he finds himself amongst a village. The village was full of mushroom houses, which had eerie glowing orange windows. Hosea chose to go inside a house, and a mushroom person greeted him. “Would you like some tea??” the mushroom person said. They sat down for a bit then the creature turned into a monster. Hosea felt scared and disgusted, as the monster grew huger and huger. He chased Hosea out. Hosea, who was quite frightened bolted into the woods. He ran for a couple of hours, and soon he saw a golden light in the distance. He came to one of the paths. He saw neon-colored fireflies on each side of the path a little further from where he was. The fireflies turned into angry giant fireflies.
Soon more monsters came along but they didn’t like the path. The monsters glared and sneered at him. Then, a tree fell onto the path shattering it apart! The monsters flooded in and at that point Hosea ran as fast as possible, along the path. Unfortunately, he ran straight into a hole, and he sunk into the abyss. As Hosea fell, he grew very scared. He hit the bottom of the hole, but remarkably he was unharmed.
Mila appeared and said, “found some fireflies! If you eat them, you will see where any of your objects, or sometimes friends are.” His dagger was next to Penelope somehow. Maggie was tied up in vines between two trees. Mila said, “see ya later!” and disappeared. He looked around himself and noticed four doors of assorted colors and sizes. Hosea chose the smallest door. As he walked through a dark tunnel, which was behind the door, he slowly but surely sank into an unusual marsh. Mysterious hands began to grab on to him.
Suddenly, his dagger came and flew around slicing the hands apart. Then, it flew Hosea out of the marsh, and out a hole. He landed on a small pile of leaves. He strode through the forest when he found a familiar lake.
There were frogs on lily pads and on one lily pad Hosea saw Penelope! But as he looked closer, he saw that the lily was very tall. Hosea said to himself, “Envy Forest must be deception forest because it was tricking me that the lily was short, and it was tricking me that it was Envy Forest! This can’t be,” Hosea thought to himself, “I won’t be able to swim all the way over there and climb up there as well.” Hosea called up to Penelope, “Penelope! Come down here!!” but there was no reply because Deception Forest was playing with her mind. He pushed away his concern and plunged into the water. Hosea swam as fast as he could and climbed up the lily. When he reached the top, Penelope was not there! “Penelope!” he called.
Soon, he saw Penelope, who was most likely drowning, at the bottom of the lake! He was still holding his dagger when it flew him down and somehow picked up Penelope as well! Then, the dagger lifted the travelers out of the lake.
Penelope snapped out of it and thanked Hosea. As they walked through the forest, they noticed strange creatures in the woods but did not think much of it.
Mila appeared and said, “Penelope! Make a wish!”
Penelope asked, “Who are you? Also, can I have an electric spear?” “Sure! I am a pixie named Mila Jae.”
As the travelers walked, Penelope threw her spear about. She threw her spear right in front of Hosea’s face. Hosea froze and turned slowly to Penelope.
“Are you kidding me!!” Hosea said, “Be more careful!”
“Sorry.” Penelope said. Later, they came into a part of the forest, which was made entirely out of vines. Penelope clung to Hosea because she was a bit scared.
A dark figure appeared, who was made of vines as well. The figure said in a scratchy voice, “are you friends of that person who came here before?!”
“No!” Hosea said.
At the same time Penelope said, “Yes!”
“WHAT!” said the vine creature.
“In our world it’s Opposite day,” Penelope said quickly.
“Oh” said the creature, “follow me.” As they walked along, he told them he was the vine king. When they came to a table, which had steaming herbs on plates on it, the king said, “this is the vine queen,” he said. He pointed to someone who looked like Maggie, but Hosea was sure it was not Maggie. He used his firefly power and saw Maggie in the vine forest, tied up. Hosea sat down and ate despite the fake Maggie. “You’re not Maggie!” Hosea exclaimed. Hosea grabbed Penelope and dashed away. The king ‘s feet crashed on the ground, as he chased them down.
Penelope screamed. “If only your dagger, and my spear would combine into each other.” Suddenly they ran into Maggie.
She at once said, “combine.” The two weapons combined and flew into the vine king’s heart. The weapon split back into two. His heart popped out and they made their wishes. Penelope wished to add the element of light to her spear. Maggie wished for the power to give friends temporary powers in bad situations. Hosea wished for a rope that can extend and retract at his liking.

The three friends found themselves on a train. Nothing was outside but darkness. Nobody else was on the train except for a figure who looked like someone very familiar. It was the vampire prince. They came to a stop, and a voice said, “Caesar station” it paused then said, “next stop ma- “the children did not get to hear the rest because they leaped out the door about 5 seconds after the vampire prince did. Soon Maggie and Hosea realized that Penelope had pulled a lever with a skull on top. Then they sadly saw that Penelope had disappeared. Hosea walked over to the lever and foolishly pulled it again. You might be able guess what happened to Hosea when he pulled it. If you guessed that he got a famous painting of Vincent VanGough’s bedroom, you would be very wrong. If you guessed that Hosea got teleported into a cell in a deep hole of darkness you would be very right. Maggie sighed. She used a power, which she got from Mila Jae, to see where her friends were. Penelope was trapped in a tall grey building. Hosea was in a cell in a deep hole of darkness. She looked around and saw two floating tall grey buildings. Maggie also saw a lever next to the skull lever. Maggie was tempted to pull it, but she withheld herself from doing so. A voice inside her mind said, “you passed the test.” A bridge seemed to load itself into existence. The bridge extended to each of the buildings. She started to the first one and opened the door. She was greeted by some skeletons. Her wish gave her the power to toss the skeletons around without picking them up and lobbing them away. The skeletons’ bones shattered apart. Maggie continued into a stairwell. When she came to the top, a chest sat on the floor. She opened it up and found a bag to hold items, which could hold anything one could fit through the top, as well as a slim sword. Out of nowhere a grim skeleton appeared. It had a couple articles of clothing, and its bones were a gradient from black to grey. “Hello” he said in a scratchy voice, “my name is Caesar skeleton” then disappeared. Maggie looked out the window and saw Penelope, all tied up, looking at her anxiously from the other building. Soon Maggie was out the door and striding toward the other building when the bridge started to break! She felt scared as she fell, but she landed in deep fountain. When she got out, she saw that she was in the middle of a town square. There were two paths on opposite sides of the fountain. Maggie went toward a town connected to one of the paths. At the end of the town, she found a deep pit of darkness. Within that pit, a cell was placed. I’m sure if you’ve been teleported to an alternate world, trapped in a cell and separated from some of your closest friends, the expression on your face would be of sheer terror. The same was for Hosea before Maggie broke him out. They started to the town when they saw two figures rising from the depths of the pit. One of the figures was flying out. A rope was tied around the other figure’s wrist. As the mysterious people came closer, they realized that the figures were the vampire prince and Penelope! When they landed Penelope vigorously shook and sliced with her spear until she was free, she threw a rock in the wrong direction to distract the prince, while she ducked into a bush with Hosea and Maggie. The vampire prince ordered three villagers to search for her. The three friends ran into a vacant and well decorated house. “That was close” Maggie said. “Sure was “Hosea said. Penelope nodded. While all the people were searching houses, they hurried to the fountain. Then, they headed down the other path until they reached some ruins. One pillar had a keyhole in it. Mila appeared and said, “Hi friends! I got this key for you all!” Hosea grabbed the keys and silently put them in the hole. A portal appeared. “Well would you look at that!” Hosea exclaimed. Mila said, “Bye!” “Thanks!” Penelope said. They leaped into the portal, but to their disappointment they were just on the train again. The train stopped and the adventurers scrambled out. They were on a small field. The vampire prince was there. Maggie threw her sword at him slicing his finger clean off. He shrunk a bit. Hosea threw his dagger from there the dagger slashed at the prince. The prince shrunk a bit. Penelope used her spear to shed light on the wretched prince, which shrunk him quite a bit. At this point the prince was as small as Mila. Penelope said, “take this!!” and smushed him with her foot. They got new powers. The friends were teleported to the deep pit. Unfortunately, Caesar skeleton was coming up. When he got up, Penelope threw her spear at him. Caesar skeleton flew at Penelope. Penelope grabbed her spear but was about to get hit into the hole! Hosea grabbed Penelope with his rope, pulling her out of the way. Hosea threw his dagger at Caesar skeleton “uughh!” Caesar skeleton said. Maggie threw her sword at him and killed the horrid monster. “Easy” Maggie said. “Too easy” Hosea said. “Scary” Penelope said. Maggie and Hosea exchanged glances then, looked at Penelope.“What?” Penelope said.
They arrive at a beautiful meadow full of sunflowers. Penelope said, “Yayyy!” Penelope started to roll around in the soft grass. “This doesn’t seem right.” Maggie said. Hosea nodded. After a while it began to grow dark, and the sunflowers turned into evil beasts. They ran in one direction. “aaahhh!” Penelope screamed. Penelope, who was so frustrated that the sunflowers weren’t so friendly, threw her spear around. The sunflowers seemed as if they were dead people. They withered instantly to the touch of Penelope’s spear. The travelers ran towards a giant cityscape on the horizon. Hosea was helping a tiny bit by using the power of plant manipulation, which he got from Ceasar skeleton. When they got to the city, they saw it was entirely made of sunflowers. There were 3 doors. One was big, the second door was medium, and the last was tiny. The last two doors had green sludge coming out of their seems. The medium door had a medium amount of sludge, and they chose that door. As Maggie, Hosea, and Penelope struggled through, the sludge burned like acid. When they got out, Penelope used her healing power, which she got from Caesar skeleton, to heal themselves. Penelope’s stomach growled. “I’m hungry” she said. “You’re fine Penelope!” Hosea said with exasperation. They headed into a small building. They saw three colored boxes on a wooden table. There were various pieces of sunflower themed décor. One box was yellow. “Fries, Potatoes, bananas, corn” Penelope said. “Sunflowers” Maggie said grimly. They opened the yellow box and found a note. “If you eat the stuff someone will pay the price. To Penelope’s delight, the box was full of Fries, Potatoes, bananas, and corn. Hosea ate a couple fries. Maggie took a bit of everything and put it in her bag. Penelope wolfed down the entirety of the box. The travelers decided to sleep there. The next morning, People with yellow clothing, yellow hair and yellow eyes came to the door. Before Hosea, Maggie, and Penelope knew it they were in a castle talking to the sunflower princess. “so, 95you’re the ones who ate the box.” Maggie pretended to yawn. “You have two choices
