Chapter V:
Liam, whilst running wrote, “Liam and Ethan were instantly transported to-” Before he could finish writing the sentence a rock hit him.
“Ow!” Liam yelled in pain.
“Are you- okay Liam?” Ethan asked, sounding a bit concerned.
“I’m- fine. Let’s get- Outta here.” Liam said.
He finished the sentence, “Liam and Ethan were instantly transported to France into an abandoned home filled with food to last for several months” The world changed around them then they found themselves in a house located at France.
“Phew.. That was close.” Said Ethan, still out of breath.
“Yeah, it’s a good thing I can write fast otherwise- the world could’ve ended..” Liam said. They wandered around the abandoned house and then sat in what appeared to be the living room.
“Oh! Hey Liam.” Ethan said, sounding a bit eager.
“Yes Ethan?” Liam said.
“How about you write a book into the world that explains how to reverse everything?” Ethan asked. Liam thought about it.
“Hey, that could actually work! Thanks for the idea Ethan.” He said, sounding hopeful. Liam wrote down, “A book appeared in front of Liam that explained how to reverse the crude effects of the pencils power”. The book materialized in front of him. It looked very old and had gold wound into its cover giving it a metallic shimmer.
“Woahhh..” Ethan whispered, gazing at the book in wonder. Liam opened it then read out loud,
“In order to remove thy pencil’s curse you must reverse more than several few words. After that you must fall back, to thy place you’ve traveled last. Once you’ve only reached the end, then at last you must send a full fledged letter to the sun. After all is said and done. Things will return back to one.” Liam read out loud.
“What do you think that means?” Ethan asked.
“I have no idea. It seems like a strange puzzle. We gotta crack it if we want to unravel what I started…” Liam said.
“If you still want to at this point anyways. I’ve wrecked so much havoc, I wouldn’t be surprised if you left right now.” Liam explained then he sighed.
“Hey, we got this Liam! I wouldn’t leave you here in this place. I feel as if I should help you. None of this was your fault, lets go and see if we can crack this riddle and save the world from those monsters that have once been our friends Liam!” Ethan said boldly as he put an arm around Liam’s back as if they had been friends for a long time.

The instructions to reverse the powers of the pencil seem cryptic.
