It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- I grabbed the letter and examined it, and then typed in "Forlot - Mr. Hawk." I waited a couple of minutes for the computer to load - and the screen suddenly went black. "What the...?" I tried turning the computer back on, but it was no use. I unplugged and plugged and pressed the button three to four times, but nothing happened. "Great! Just great! My computer broke!" I was about to head back to my suitcase and finish packing, when I heard a loud beep coming from my computer. I looked at it, and the screen went white. And a message appeared. A disturbing message. "DO NOT COME TO FORLOT - OR YOU WILL DIE." ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J.

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- A blue butterfly swooped in from an open window and perched itself on my shoulder. "Well, would you look at that?" I said. "Awe. That is a beautiful butterfly," Maxine commented, smiling. "My mom was a butterfly lover. She loved the blue butterflies the most." "She probably sent that butterfly to you from above, letting you know that she is watching over you." "Yeah. I wish that she was here though." "Shoo!" Damian said, shooing the butterfly away from me. "Damian, it is okay," I said. "It-" I was going to say more, when I heard a scream. And then a crash. And my whole world turned black. Literally. ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J. All Rights Reserved

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- I went into my room and immediately spotted dust on my desk. "Ew." I blew away the dust, and then took out my books and set them on my desk. I was about to sit down, when I suddenly heard Hansel scream. "Ah! Monster!" "Hansel?!" I cried out.

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ---------------------------- We then heard a phone ringing. "I will get it," Margie volunteered. She crossed the room and headed over to a table. She picked up the phone. "Hello? Excuse me? Who is this?" The others and I slowly walked to where she was. "Your name is Ava Campbell? And you want Margie Morgan? Nigel Sanders? And Hansel and Gretel Mason?" She nearly dropped the phone. "H-how do you know us?" ---------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you!

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- One of the ladies had orange hair tied back in a bun. She had on a dark red, long-sleeved shirt, a matching skirt that touched her knees, and black heels. The other lady had short, blond hair and was wearing a dark green, long-sleeved shirt, a matching skirt that also touched the knees, and grey heels. "Wendy. Tris," Winnie said. "These women would like to talk to you." "Are you Wendy and Tris?" the orange-haired girl asked. She was holding a black suitcase. "We are," Wendy responded. "Who wants to know?" I added. "I am Lila Sage, and this is my assistant, Cara Cline. We are certified lawyers who represent Kara." "Kara?" Wendy and I said in unison. "Yes," Cara said. "We would like you to come with us to her house. The house where Kara died in." ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you!

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- The prince was supposed to embrace the princess in a hug and dance with her. And then...kiss her. Calvin hugged me and tossed his script to the side, and then grabbed ahold of my wrists and spun me around. His hair danced wildly, and he laughed. When I heard his laughter, I began laughing too. I do not know why. I just felt...happy. I soon spotted Ms. Dia standing by the stage and not smiling. She was frowning. Why? "Ah!" I screamed as I fell and hit the stage floor. "Ow." "Are you alright?" Calvin asked. "Y-yeah. J-just a bit sore." I tried getting back up, but I could not. I could not feel my legs. ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J. All Rights Reserved

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- "We are moving...to Forlot!" "Forlot?" I questioned. "Moving?!" my siblings also questioned. "Yes. Come to my room. I will show you the map of Forlot." Elena and Elaine sped past him to his room, and Dad followed them. Leonard growled and followed the three of them. I was about to get up and go as well when I realized that Leonard had left his phone on the table. It was left on a chat group between him and...somebody else. The last text message caught me by surprise. "I WANT HER! HAND HER OVER!" ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you!

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- At that moment, Ash came back. She was humming a tune and looked positively happy. George rushed up to her. "Tell me. Are you proud?" "Hmm? Proud of what?" Ash said. "Proud that I have opened my eyes to the truth?" "Do not delay the inevitable! Tell me! Are you proud that you doomed your own kind?" "What?!" "Are you proud now?! Are you?!" ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J.

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- I decided to forget about it for now and was going to head back to the group... ...when I heard it again. Louder this time. "Help me! Help!" My heart was racing. My legs were quivering. What should I do? "Help! I need help!" I spotted a pair of arms waving in the distance of the forest. My teeth chattered. I had to at least go and check it out. I dashed into Forgotten Forest, zigzagged to avoid the trees, and saw the person. Saw the boy who was drowning in quicksand. ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J.

It may be a small town. But it has its many secrets. ----------------------------- "That the animals that you have bonded with are not your average animals." I glanced back up at him. "How did you know that?" "You have told me so many times before." "...oh." I brushed away a strand of my hair. "Sorry." He let out a chuckle. "No need to be sorry. I understand how you feel." "You do?" "I believe you when you say that the animals that you have seen are not normal. I am always noticing bizarre things." "Like what?" He had no time to answer. The horses jumped, and Dustin remained as calm and collective as he could and gripped the ends of the straps. He raised them high over his head, and the horses made a sharp turn, causing the carriage to tilt. Before I knew it, I was tossed out of the carriage and into the woods. "Maria!" Dustin cried. ----------------------------- If you like adventure, mystery, humor, or cliffhangers, then this is the book for you! Cover: Recolor Copyright by Ash J. All Rights Reserved
