Chereads / A Journey To The Darkness / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

After our chatting in the garden, we went back to Lisa's room. When we enter the room, she had already started reading the book and her eyes were large as she was shocked after reading the first page. "A JOURNEY TO THE DARKNESS??" Lisa asked in a surprised voice. Max and I looked each others' faces and laughed. We described everything to her and surprising us she gave us a delightful laugh. We were surprised because of her reaction. She was an adventure lover and I thought how foolish she is inside of my heart but I loved her so much as she was kind and lovely just like her brother.

However there's no turning back now. We had to continue reading the book together. While reading the book we heard different noises inside of the house but we were not able to find out what those sounds were. We knew the reason for the noises were the magical power of the book. Among all the disturbances we read the book. We were surprised as there was nothing special other than the noises. I thought that something will happen to us but surprising us nothing happened.

It was already about 12.30 in the mid-night. We decided to sleep as it was too late. Lisa arranged the room for us to sleep. As the bed wasn't enough for all the three of us we decided to sleep on the floor. It was one of the funniest nights. Lisa, Max and I enjoyed so much with shadow arts and much more enjoyable things. And finally we all felt sleepy and stopped playing.

I could not sleep as it was uncomfortable to sleep on the floor. I spend the night thinking what will happen to us. "Now we are a team. If something happens to Max or Lisa what would I do?" I asked myself. Although I was afraid a bit inside of my heart I had a strong determination. I wanted to set my mind free, I wanted to see the end of this. Unknowingly I fell asleep.

Lisa was the first to wake up in the morning. She was screaming when I wake up. I could not found where I was. Then I woke up Max. Because of the scenery which was in front of my eyes stoned me with the feeling of surprise and scariness. All of us were unable to identify where we were. The book had taken us to a different world. Max was the first to identify that it was the place which was described in the book with a picture. As the book was too large we were able to read only a page. That page described about a different world which was discovered by a magician named, Morgan.

Morgan is a lady who was identified as a witch who was named as "the crazy witch" nearly fifty years ago. When Morgan was a young girl she had met with a car accident and her parents were died from the accident. So she had to live with her grandmother. Morgan was too young to face such a grief. As her grandmother was unable to understand her granddaughter's situation, Morgan had to find a way to overcome the sadness. So she started spending time alone in the woods. There was a large forest which had large trees behind her house. One day she wanted to see what was there as she never been there because her parents advised her not to go to the forest any day. The curiosity and her loneliness made her go inside the forest. There she found a book which took her to another world. As the time passes her grandmother thought that she is dead while Morgan made her own Kingdom with the animals and one day she received a magical power. An old lady gave her the power taking a promise not to harm any of the living being. But she did not work according to the promise she gave to the old lady. She wanted to go back to her home using her powers to see whether her granny was alright but something unfortunate happened to her. When she went to her home town all the people were surprised as they all believed that she is dead. So the people believed that she is a ghost and they tried to kill her as they identified her to be a harmful spirit. Morgan found that people are always cruel then she made a book using her power which can take anyone who read the book to her world. The world was a dangerous place to the people who was not aware of it.

Somehow the three friends had come to the world of Morgan, the cruel witch. Suddenly I was reminded of something in the book and I started turning the pages as if I was crazy. Then I found that there was a description about a world named "The Forbidden World". I turned to Max saying, "We are here". He understood what I meant in a second because both Max and Lisa remembered about what we read in the book last night. I felt guilty as I put both Max and Lisa in a danger. I wanted to speak to Max but I thought that it was not the best time so I stayed quiet. Although it was a serious time I felt hungry and it felt as if there is a war inside of my stomach. At last I decided to ask Max about the breakfast. In a forbidden world how can we find breakfast? That was all Max had to tell me. I felt uncomfortable as my inner mind told me that Max is angry with me for taking him to a forbidden world with his little sister whom he love so much and I was just his friend. Finally I asked whether he was angry with me. But I got to know that he was not angry and both of them were willing to go ahead and have the greatest adventure just like they read in books. Sometimes I felt mad about them. However I liked them so much.
