We ran to Hagetha and asked her if she can help us get the Mona Lisa Portrait, "I already have it." She said, we looked at her, she took it out and asked, "Did you get all the items?". We nodded and gave her Rex, the Genie lamp, the witch's hair and gave her a paper with the code written on it, she thanked us dunked the ingredients including the portrait and the code paper. The potion turned green and she put it in a clear ball, which then she injected the liquid which made the ball green. She gave it to us and said throw it at the Evil Beauty and then WE WIN!!!!!!!

We thanked her and left her shop. We let Rex turn into a Dragon-Guinee pig, we rode it, and it flew us to our home but before we could make it a portal arrived and we purposely entered it. Tracy looked around and said, "we're back in the shadow realm.", I couldn't see anything or anyone, then we saw Beauty she was outraged and 100 same-colored balls, she shot them all at once careful not to shoot at Rex. "S-s-she knows!" Jane mumbled. There was a shield still protecting us, but it couldn't hold for long. Beauty couldn't see through the shield, "Follow me!" Tracy whispered; we did. She led us away from the shield and to the dark area, Beauty thought we were still behind the shield and kept trying to find tactics to shoot us. "Where are we going?" Willy asked, "Behind her." Tracy whispered back. Then Beauty looked back where we were and said, "Foolish to get out of that SHEILD!!!", Tracy pushed me further into the dark, "Go! Throw it carefully. We will distract her!" Tracy said and turned visible in front of Beauty so did Jane and Willy. Willy tried to stay tough, but he couldn't and backed away, until Jane pushed him trying to encourage him, "Come on big man, YOU HAVE TO STAY TOUGH!!! And if she tries to hurt you I will be there to help.", that made him feel a little bit better. On the other hand, I didn't know what to do and I was the worst thrower in history, you have to stay strong like Jane said, try, try! Who am I kidding! I am gonna throw it and it will fall on something else and we all will DIE! Because of ME! I thought to myself. "You will succeed!" Tracy said, "But in baseball, every time I throw, I would try to throw the dang ball at the player but, it would go over the fence and hit a person from the crowd!" I hissed, she smiled, "Well this time try to aim it next to the target not on it." She said calmly and turned visible for Beauty to see her, "HA! FOOLISH TO SHOW YOUR FACES!" she exclaimed and threw three balls at them, they barely missed it, I had to act fast. I ran behind her ready to throw but I noticed Willy hurt by one of the balls, blood gushed out of his shoulder, he tried to move it but couldn't. I heard him scream in agony, Tracy came to accompany him, she took her scarf and wrapped it around his shoulder, the bleeding stopped, it made feel better to see Tracy helping him. Jane had Rex to stop the fireballs from hitting Tracy and Willy, I knew I had to throw the green ball now or else! I was sweating, I threw the ball too hard and missed. Beauty spotted the green ball and looked behind, "Who is there? SHOW YOURSELF!!!"

She started to shoot the fire on my direction. "RUN!!!" Willy screamed. When I ran deeper in the dark I couldn't see Beauty nor the others, there was a light in front of me. It would be impossible if Beauty were there, well technically everything we're going through is impossible. I walked toward it anxious to see what it might be. It was a chest, I tried opening it but it wouldn't budge. I had to open it quickly cause the other were still with Beaty. Then I remembered, THE PURPLE AND BLUE GLASS KEY! I searched through m backpack and took out the key, I put it in the lock, and it opened. There was a book. "UGH! A BOOK? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO USE THIS THING OVER A CRAZY WOMAN WITH NICE EYES AND DRESS AND VERY POINTY TEETH!" I complained, but there was no one there to complain to. It started to glow, and words came out, I read it aloud, "You must read these to the queen.

That which brings me down I banish, 

the negative in my life may now vanish.

I no longer need it to hold me back, 

a heavy energy that pushes me off track."

 I COULD BANISH THE QUEEN! I took the book and went straight back to the queen, I made a shield around myself and read aloud to her, "That which brings me down I banish, the negative in my life may now vanish.

I no longer need it to hold me back, a heavy energy that pushes me off track.". She looked at me and then at the book, "NO!" she yelled and a portal under her feet pulled her in, "NOOOOO!" she yelled again, and disappeared in the portal, only her scythe was left ( Which had all her magic in it) "Where did you get that?" Jane asked, "Found it in the dark used Hagetha's key opened the chest, blah, blah, blah!" I answered, "How's William?", forgot to tell you, when I am concerned about Willy I call him his real name, "He still healing but fine." Tracy said and looked at a shield where Willy was. I ran toward the shield and hugged him careful not to hurt his shoulder, "YOU DID IT!!! I SAW THE WHOLE THING!" he exclaimed, "Thanks man" I said, then we transported home in mom's room, with our bags and the scythe on mom's rug.

Apparently mom was there on her bed, she had dry tears on her red cheeks, which then we noticed dad sitting next to her. She looked at us and I thought she was gonna explode, cause she was red. "CHILDREN!!!" she said happy to see us, but still furious, "Hi ch-ch-ch-children." Dad said, he looked scared and backed away from mom.
