Talia here again. I hope you like the book, because I sure do! I thought my chapter was good until I read Molly and Gwen's and then I felt like my writing sucked! They did so good. And one last note for the writers, and you can read it too, if you'd like: NO PLOT TWISTS. I AM MAKING THE PLOT TWIST AT CHAPTER ELEVEN. DEAL WITH IT. I CREATED THE IDEA, I GET TO MAKE THE FIRST TWIST. Sorry.

Viola Quinn

We sat on the hill and looked at the book. "So, what does it mean?" I asked. "I dunno." Gemini said. "I guess they represent - us?"

"Cool! But not cool." Alex said. I looked at her. We sat in silence and stared at the book some more until we heard another rustling in the bushes. We all froze.

I slowly turned my head to the bush beside me. And there was

a kid?

"Hi. I'm Ajax. I followed you here." I heard Gemini look and say "Dude. Seriously?"

I looked back at her. "He's my neighbor back at home. His parents got the same summer camp flyer."

"WAIT!" I yelled. I pointed to the book. Another symbol was appearing! It was a triangle with an X through it.

"Cool! What's THAT!?" Ajax said. Gemini covered his mouth. "Keep it down, okay? We don't want anyone else to know we have this!"

"Well, now we have to tell him." Alex said. I nodded. "Fine. But you tell no one, okay?"

"Cross my heart!" He responded.

We examined the book some more and eventually gave up. "I don't get it!" Alex said. "Why is THAT there?" She asked, pointing to the moon and star. "That's my necklace."

She pulled a silver chain out of the collar of her shirt . in the middle was a charm with a moon, and a star.

" NO WAY!" I yelled. Both Gemini and Alex 'Shushed' me. "Sorry." I whispered.

"I heard of these kids who find weird things here all the time! We can go ask them!" Ajax said.

"Where?" Gemini asked. "Just down the road!"

We followed Ajax to a large house that had a sign on it. 'Mystery Hack.'

"It's the Mystery Shack!" Ajax said. I looked at him with a confused expression.

"Where's the "S"?" I asked. "On the roof," He replied. "It fell off."

We walked inside and saw a bunch of merchandise that was obviously fake. "Sup?"

A girl was sitting behind the cash register with her feet on the counter and a magazine in hand.

"Uh, hi," Gemini said. "We're looking for two kids, twins, twelveish."

She pointed to the 'Employees Only' door and said we could just walk in. So, we did. Classic Wendy!

Two kids watching T.V. looked at us. Alex was the first to talk. "Hi, I'm Alex "

The kids looked at us and Gemini spoke up. "We found- something holding this book." She held up the strange journal and the boy looked at her and then shot out of the chair and tried to take the book from her. "Hey!" She yelled and pulled the book to her chest.

"Where'd you get that!?" He yelled. "I TOLD YOU!" Gemini said. "Some triangle thing dropped it!" This time the girl playing with the pig in the corner looked up. The twins looked at each other.

The boy led us upstairs to their room.

"Dipper, you don't think-" The girl started. "Mabel. Wait. Maybe it isn't-"

Gemini opened to the strange page and pointed to the center. "Yep." Said Mabel. "It's Bill."

"Who now?" I asked, a little scared. Dipper and Mabel explained the entire thing and I froze. Gemini didn't say anything, but both Alex and Ajax screamed '"COOL!"

"NOT COOL!" Both of the twins said in unison.

The rain started to pour outside and I realized I didn't put my viola in the cabin! Everyone in orchestra is crying right now.

I ran out of the building and through the rain all the way back to camp Greyson. I opened the door to the cabin and got my raincoat, but, before I even left, I saw that my viola was - inside?

everything started to turn grey. I was confused so I looked at my phone. I typed into the search bar, "Can rain water make you colorblind?" An all to familiar voice answered for me, "No."

I looked around the cabin and saw that I was the only one, well, the only one besides-

I turned around and jumped back. I walked backwards until I hit the wall. I glanced at the door. Why did I have to pick THIS bed!?

" I don't know." He said. " And you're welcome for your instrument." I Looked over at my case and saw it wasn't wet at all!

"Thanks?" I said. He rolled his eyes. Eye?

"I'll be watching. Until next time-" Something started to burn my wrist.

"Reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, buy gold, BYE!"

The color restored and the door slammed open. There was Gemini and Alex. The saw the fear on my face and ran over to me.

"Dude! You Okay?" Alex asked. "What happened?" Gemini continued. I couldn't even speak. I just sat down on my bed and looked at my wrist.

The burning sensation was gone, but it had left behind

A music note.

Hope you enjoyed chapter four! Remember, plot twist at eleven and next up to write is Kirk as Ajax! Until next time-

think. ( You thought I was going to the "reality is an illusion" thing, didn't you?) Bye!
