"What the hell do you need a children's book for?" Fluorescent yelled, causing the other person at the end to move their phone away from their ears.

"I told you already: I have to give my 5-year-olds a story to read in front of the class tomorrow because of 'Fairy Tale Friday'!" Fredda, her sister, said back, rubbing her ear that was being yelled into.

"You don't have any at home?" Fluorescent screamed again, causing a passerby to scurry off in case she got mad and started yelling at them for staring at her. Fluorescent was well known for hurting feelings for not showing manners.

"We do. It was just that we needed a new one. They can't read one that they have already read. Messed up, I know, but it is understandable."

"What kind of book do you want me to get?" Fluorescent said, rubbing her temple so reduce her temper. She was also well known for getting into fights because of her temper. So far, she had been suspended once from school for fighting someone that pushed her, causing her to drop her food and handcuffed twice for beating the sh*t out of someone that crossed her.

"A book like 'The Paper Bag Princess' or 'The Little Prince' or something," Fredda said, walking to her son's room to make sure he was done with his homework.

"Those books are awfully wordy for five-year-olds to read-"

"I have told you already: my kids are in a private school! Sometimes their homework comes out of an encyclopedia. I wonder if grammar school was ever this difficult-"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Give me a minute and I will swing by to give you the books because I am not going back again. You owe me-"

"Yeah, yeah. I'll CashApp you; just get the books and hurry before my children have to go to sleep because I have them read it to me before bed!" Fredda interrupted.

"Fine, Fred. Just be sure to give me my money soon because if you don't... you know what's coming for you. I have been in that kind of game for a long time," Fluorescent warned, dropping her voice down a few notches.

"I know. Just hurry."

After that entire conversation was over, Fluorescent got up from the park bench she was sitting on and walked to a bookstore that had a section for children.

Picking up the book " Goldilocks and the Three Bears" and flipping to the end to see how many pages it had, she realized that this book was starting to slightly fade away and then it faded back. She had to blink hard to see if she was seeing things. Instead of ending with that she gets away safely and stays away from them, it becomes blank.

In its place, it began to describe the horrors of eating her flesh and drizzling her blood over their porridge. And included graphic pictures.

In disgust, Fluorescent dropped the book, which, despite being dropped spine up, ended up flipped over, open to the beginning of the book.

That wasn't the best part. The best part was that the image began to swirl and she began to see a real-life image of a little girl, mischievously skipping to a cottage in the middle of a forest cover in thick canopies and the only sound able to be heard was the little girl's off-tune version of Mozart.

Next thing Fluorescent knew, was that she was being sucked into the book, and darkness developed over her eyes.
