ON HOLD: The adventures into 'The Book of Imagination'

Chapter seven

Emmersyn and Alec sat on the floor of her bedroom staring at the page of the book. It was the only page of the book with writing on it, it said, "You have now reached the end of all open parts of the book; in order to reach the locked part (Part Four) you must do the following:

-Bring at least one character from every part back to the real world

-Acquire a signature (on the following page) from each of them

-And destroy an anchor from each part (at the same time of course)

If you do all of the listed, Part Four will be opened."

Emmersyn read it to herself what felt like a million times before Alec spoke, "We're doomed, I'm the only character you brought back." "Not necessarily," She responded, looking as if she had an idea, "Can you drive?" she asked, getting a curious look in her eyes. "Well," he said, "That depends on the quality of driving you want." "So I take that as a 'no'?" She said teasingly rolling her eyes. "I'll ask Connor tomorrow. But for right now, what's important is food and sleep." She said in a no nonsense tone.

Emmersyn quickly and quietly made her way down to the first floor after the conversation she and Alec shared. She took food and then made her way up to the second floor, climbing more stairs until she finally reached the third floor. Walking into her room, she set down the sandwiches from the fridge, the chips, and the soda on her desk. Alec was laying there on her bed staring at the ceiling. "Do you think I'm ever going to get back?" he asked quietly, almost whispering. "I think we will," she answered reassuringly, "Now go eat, I brought food."

Alec eating was definitely something to watch, he devoured his two sandwiches in two bites each. After some convincing that chips were actually really good, he at two thirds of the full sized bag. And after one soda, Emmersyn had to go back downstairs and get Alec a second one.

After eating, Emmersyn pushed Alec into the guest bathroom with his bag and made him bathe. When he was finished, Emmersyn escorted him to the guest bedroom and made him go to bed. She told him not to get up the next morning until she got him. But Alec apparently had other plans. In the middle of the night around two a.m. Alec crept quietly into Emmersyn's room and got into her bed and snuggled up next to her. He quickly fell asleep after.

The next morning Emmersyn woke up to Alec in her bed. Quickly shaking him awake she asked, "What are you doing in my bed sleeping." He answered smirking, "I was lonely, and you were asleep. So you didn't object." After making him leave her room and go back to his to change, Emmersyn herself changed into her normal attire, A band tee, shorts, and vans. Putting on simply eyeliner and mascara and pulling her hair into a ponytail; she went to knock on Alec's door. He opened the door shirtless, Emmersyn's hands quickly coming to shield her eyes. "Why do you keep doing things like that?" she muttered. "What was that?" he asked in a teasing manner. "Go put on a shirt." she said still covering her eyes.

After Alec was wearing a shirt, he said "So what's the game plan?" "How about we eat breakfast first, then I'll explain." Emmersyn answered. After practically dragging Alec downstairs, they were finally at the table eating and making small talk. After a long breakfast, the pair made their way back upstairs so Emmersyn could explain things.

~ It's not long, but it's a chapter, and it's longer than chapter three... I estimated this book to be about 7 or 8 chapters; and I was quite wrong. ~
