《The Land of Stories: The Adventure Continues》Strolling Up and Down Memory Lane
Advertisement
The group collected all of a ingredients for the time travel spell and used them to open up the portal back home. They all jumped in and floated through time. Bree and Conner looked at all the memories surrounding them. Graduation, marriage, having their children, winning awards. They soon saw a huge flash of light and they landed on the wood flooring of the Baileys living room.
"So this is where you live in the future?" Red said and stood up. "It's nice. It's not a palace, but it's nice.
"We're home! Thank God." Matthew said and kissed the floor.
"So where's the book?" Charlie asked.
"It should be around here somewhere. Maybe it moved. Everyone split up." Elizabeth said. Bree started looking around the living room and her eyes fell onto the back wall. It was covered with pictures, diplomas, and beneath it was a little table with awards on it. There was 5 for best book series, and one golden globe for best motion picture.
"Conner come here look." Bree said. Conner walked over to Bree and smiled.
"Wow, is this us?"
"Look, here's when we get married, and here I'm guessing was pretty recent. Hey we age pretty well." Bree said and laughed.
"You do, I'm not too sure about me." Conner said with a laugh and smiled at Bree. Bree smiled back at him and kissed him. Elizabeth, Carrie, Matthew smiled at the couple.
"I think that's how I'll always remember our parents when mom was alive. Always in love, I don't think I've ever seen them fight once." Elizabeth said.
"I remember one time they did, I think it was about something really stupid, and Carrie crying because she thought Mom and Dad were going to split up." Matthew said.
"Oh yeah, I remember that day, but I only thought that because of you Matt."
"Bree where's my laptop!" Conner yelled tearing apart the couch.
"I don't know where it is." Bree said coming down the stairs. "Maybe the kids have it."
"Bree! My entire story is on that computer! If I don't find it I'm going to have to write the entire thing over again. This story is my longest yet." Conner said.

"Hi daddy, what are you looking for?" Carrie asked coming down the stairs.
"I'm looking for my computer sweetie. Have you seen it?"
"No I haven't." Carrie said. Conner sighed and groaned.
"I'll never find it!" Conner yelled and sat on the couch and put his hands on it head.
"Conner calm down. You'll find it." Bree said and sat next to him.
Carrie raced upstairs and went into her brothers room and closed the door behind her. She found both her siblings on the bed with their fathers laptop.
"You took daddy's laptop!" Carrie said.
"Yeah, because it's the only computer in the house right now until mom gets hers fixed." Matthew said.
"Carrie it's fine, but don't tell dad you know how he hates it when we play games on his computer." Elizabeth said.
"But it's not fine, because your lying." Carrie said.
"OH MY GOD! I CANT FIND IT! SO DON'T GO TELLING ME ITS GOING TO BE FINE." Conner yelled from downstairs.
"Conner, calm down the kids can hear you...and don't yell at me like that I'm trying to help you." Bree said trying to stay calm.
"Bree your not helping enough. If I don't find my laptop, I may never get this published. Then we'll loose everything. We won't have any of this, so don't start telling me it's ok." Conner said. The kids soon heard a door slam.
"I've never heard them fight before. That must be their first." Elizabeth said.
"You do realize they dated for years before they had us right. So we don't know if they fought or not." Matthew said.
"Are mom and dad going split up?" Carrie asked.
"Why would you say that Carrie?" Elizabeth said.
"Because, my friend at school said that her parents fought and now her dad lives in Japan."
"Makes sense, my friend said the same thing too. How about you do something for them Carrie?" Matthew said. "If it'll make you feel better."
"Or you could give back the laptop."
"No way. Not until we finish this level." Matthew said. Carrie thought of a great idea and she walked down the stairs and sat next to her mom on the couch.

"Hi mom."
"Hi Carrie." Bree said and smiled at her.
"I was just wondering, what did you and dad do on your first date?" Carrie asked.
"Well, the first time he took me out we weren't officially dating, but he took me to this restaurant that his friends owned and we had fries and milkshakes."
"Really? I thought it would be something more romantic. Like a moonlight picnic or he would take you dancing or something like that." Carrie said.
Bree laughed and smiled at her youngest daughter. "Our first picnic was our first summer together, and we lived in California so it was very hot, so it was cut short. But then we went back to your fathers house and watched a movie."
"That sounds better." Carrie said.
"So why are you asking this?" Bree asked.
"Oh I was just wondering. Ok bye." Carrie said and rushed upstairs.
Carrie wanted to do something very special for her parents to rekindle their romance. So she made milkshakes and french fries and set it out on the back porch. Conner was in his office with sheets of paper, when Bree walked into the room.
"Hey Conner." Bree said.
"Hey." Conner said and turned around in his chair.
"Did you find it?" Bree asked.
"No, I didn't. So I'm trying to write down all the key points how they were written...If I can remember how I wrote them." Conner said then Carrie came into the room.
"I have a surprise for you on the back porch. Go look." Carrie said. Bree and Conner smiled and went to the back porch while Carrie went into the living room to spy.
"Oh my God." Bree said. On the table were two milkshakes and some fries. "You know why she did this right."
"Yeah, because I yelled early. About a silly laptop. Bree, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you especially in front of the kids." Conner said.
"I know how stressed out you've been, it's ok. I still love you." Bree said and kissed him.
"Yay are you two staying together?" Carrie said from the couch.
"What?!" Bree and Conner said.
"Carrie come here." Conner said and kneeled down to look at Carrie. "Why did you think we were going to split up."
"Because my friend at school said that when parents fight one goes to live in Japan, plus Matthew said the same thing which confirmed my thought."
"Matthew!" Bree and Conner yelled.
"Sweetheart, your father and I have been together for a long time, and we always fight about something silly never something really life changing. Carrie we are never going to split up...our loves too strong." Bree said and bent down and smiled at Conner. Carrie smiled and hugged her parents.
"You called me." Matthew said coming down the stairs followed by Elizabeth.
"Did you tell Carrie we were going to split up?" Conner asked.
"No, we'll I didn't think she would believe me. But I didn't say you were."
"Plus they took your laptop and were playing games." Carrie said.
"What?! You took my laptop?!" Conner said and stood up.
"Tattletale!" Elizabeth said.
"You two know you are not allowed to play on your dads computer." Bree said and picked up Carrie. "Go put the computer back in the office and go to your rooms. No dinner."
"But mom!" Matthew and Elizabeth whined. Bree pointed to the stairs and Matthew and Elizabeth slowly walked up.
"Now how about we go enjoy this spread that our little princess made." Conner said and kissed his daughters cheek. Carrie laughed and smiled happy to see both her parents smile.
"I found it!" Charlie yelled from the attic. Everyone ran upstairs and found the book open and glowing.
"I haven't seen the book in ages." Alex said. "Ok let's see what damage this new villain has caused."
