《The Land of Stories: The Adventure Continues》Unfinished Business
Advertisement
Allyson, Nathaniel, Gabriel, and Jake decided to stay behind to fix what Ezmia, Evelyn and Edmund had done while the others returned to Camelot. Once the group set foot in Camelot, Older Conner bolted inside the palace and his kids and Charlie led him to the room where Bree was. Older Alex and Annabelle took Brystal, Younger Alex and Conner to the library to return them home.
Once they got to the door, Conner opened it and instantly started to tear up at the sight of his sleeping wife.
"We'll stay out here," Carrie said. Conner walked in and closed the door behind him. He walked towards Bree and sat on the bed.
"Please let this not be a dream," Conner whispered. "I couldn't bare losing you again."
Conner leaned down and kissed her softly. Bree suddenly awakened and smiled up at him. She quickly wrapped her arms around him tightly.
"I feel like this is a dream you've had," Bree said and laughed. Conner laughed and hugged her tightly.
"I'm so glad you're ok," Conner said. "I'm never letting go of you. The only good thing those evil twins did is make us young again."
"Conner, this isn't going to last," Bree said. "When your grandmother passed, didn't her magic fade with her?"
"Awe man!" Conner said. "Your right, but that means,"
"Conner, I've accepted it," Bree said. "We don't live forever. My time has come."
"No, it hasn't! I'll ask Alex, maybe there's something she can give you!" Conner said tearing up. "I can't lose you, not again. I won't be able to go on."
"What do you mean? I can't believe you said that." Bree said through tears of her own. "You have your sister, and our children and our grandchildren. You have to be there for them. Every time you look at them, you'll see me."
"I know, but I'm afraid."
"Conner, we hit a point in our lives when we are at peace. I've hit that point. I've accepted my fate, right when I got sick. Conner, you think of death a different way than I do. I get to see our other family again. My parents, my sisters. Conner, I get to meet your dad." Bree said with tears running down her face. "I'll always be with you. In the eyes of our children and in your heart. You'll also see me again, stop acting like you won't."
Conner hugged her tightly and kissed her passionately.
"Let me return to magic," Bree said.
"Ok, but before you do. Let's have a great day with our children." Conner said.
"I agree," Bree said and kissed her husband. The door then creaked open softly. Their three children walked in with tears of their own and hopped on the bed and gave their mother the biggest hug.
"We're glad your ok Mom," Matthew said through his tears.
"I'm so glad to see all of you here," Bree said.
"Grandma!" Said three little voices running into the room. Brighton, Aiden, and Charlie jumped on the bed and gave Bree the biggest hug.
"What are you guys doing here?" Bree asked surprised.
"We helped get the items!" Aiden said.
"You did!" Bree said. "Wait we have to go defeat those twins and Ezmia."
"We already did," Charlie said.

"Wait what? You went and fought without me?"
"Sorry," Conner said and shrugged his shoulders.
Older Alex and Annabelle then walked into the room.
"Bree I'm so glad you're ok," Alex said and hugged her sister in law. "We sent back our younger selves and Brystal. We also gave them some memory potions so that they wouldn't remember what happened."
"Why'd you do that?!" Conner said. "I should have written the anti-aging cream thing on his hand."
"I have no idea what's going on, but that's something you should have done when I told you about it years ago," Bree said.
"I know. I'm regretting it now, and I thought I could fix that." Conner said. "Alex since those Evil twins are gone and they are the ones that did this to us, does that mean that...we will be old again?"
"I think so, I can already see more wrinkles on you," Alex said and laughed.
"Wait you mentioned our younger selves. Did you guys time travel?!" Bree asked.
"Yeah, it was stressful and crazy," Carrie said.
"Well, since we now know how to time travel, there's something I've always wanted to do and I think you two would like it too," Bree said to Alex and Conner.
It was a bright and sunny day in Willow Crest California and the 6th-grade students at Willow Crest Middle School were out at recess. Alex Bailey was sitting against a tree reading a book of fairytales. Her brother Conner Bailey was sitting at a picnic table finishing a paper that was due weeks ago. A few tables away from Conner was Bree Campbell. Who was sitting alone reading an adult mystery novel, while her friends were sitting at the table next to them talking about the drama in their lives.
Suddenly, in each of their backpacks, there was a light and after a few seconds, it then dimmed. Bree reached into her backpack and pulled out a letter with a wax seal. She opened it and read it.
Dear Mini Bree,
I know what your thinking, no this isn't a letter asking you to solve a big mystery and to go on an amazing adventure even though we wish it was and actually that's coming soon. I am writing this letter to warn you about what's coming and to inform you that everything is going to be all right.
Like I mentioned earlier, in two years we will embark on a journey that will change our life forever. You'll come back asking all these questions. Who am I? Where do I belong? Am I meant to be someone great? Do I no longer fit in? I can say without giving away to much about our future, because I know how much we love a good mystery, that we are meant to be someone great. We belong right where we are now because our world definitely needs someone like us in charge. Who we are right now is great and we should stay that way. Our need and want for adventure and more is what starts us on our path to adventure and greatness.
After we come back from our first grand adventure, yes there will be more, we may not fit in with our friends anymore and soon some of our friends will leave us. However, don't worry because more will rise in their places and they'll never leave you. One including our amazing forever boyfriend and husband. Yes, we do get happiness and love. I know this is a question that you have always secretly asked yourself. If you will ever find true love like in the stories, or will you be alone forever. I can reassure you, that you won't and your other half isn't that far away. We end up with an amazing husband that treats us right and 3 amazing kids.

Continue being the amazing writer and strong women we are. These qualities we have will lead us to our adventure and get us our amazing job. A job where we change the world and help it become better. Be confident, be strong and be brave and get ready, because from here on out, life's going to get crazy.
From, Your Future Self
PS. Go talk to that girl that always sits against the tree and reads by herself. She could really use a friend like us and we definitely need one like her. Also, talk to Conner already, stop being a wimp. I have a feeling he likes us too.
A few tables away from Bree, Conner Bailey reached into his bag after the light dimmed and pulled out a letter that looked similar to Brees. He opened it up and read it.
Dear Little Cool Conner,
I know what your thinking. What the heck is this weird letter in my backpack and how did it get here? Trust me, this mystery is the least of your worries, because from here on out your life is going to get hectic, so buckle up. I am basically writing to you to warn you about what's coming. I'll also try not to reveal too much about our future but here are the important things you need to know.
First off, yes we get taller and slimmer and we end up being a really handsome dude. We'd like to think our looks is how we got the girl in the purple beanie to date us, but it's probably because of our amazing personality. Our personality is actually something that will get us through the hardships and adventures that we are about to embark on. This adventure I speak of is actually about to come in the next few days. I know right, I'm writing you this at the most perfect time. Don't discard this, we may want to look back on this and all of this is true by the way.
Second, on this adventure your going to meet the most amazing friends and people in the world. You'd never think you'd ever meet people like this, but you do. You're also going to be offered a beverage very early on your journey. DON'T DRINK IT!! You're going to get a very bad stomach ache. Your adventures with saving the world will continue on for the next few years and after that, we will live a completely normal life. I can assure you that after saving the world countless times, our life will become normal. Also, we don't get paid, I know I'm still complaining about it. The thing that will change the most on this journey is Alex. She is about to change more than you'll ever imagine and no it's not just what comes with growing up. Our sister is about to become a very powerful person and we have to be by her side at all times to try and keep her stable. Even though we may fail a couple of times, in the end, we have to always help her back on her feet. It actually just comes with the job of being a twin brother.
Lastly, continue being this comedic and talented writer we are. Yes, I know you secretly write when you're alone. We're really good at it, keep it up because we have the best job in the world. After all the crazy dances with death, we find happiness. We end up with 3 amazing children and an amazingly cool and beautiful wife. Life as you know it is about to change, more than it already has in the past year. So basically I'm writing to tell you to buckle up because it's going to be one heck of a ride.
From, Awesome Older Conner
Ps. Tell Bree you like her already!! Stop being a wimp! Also, when Bree says to use the anti-aging cream in the very very distant future...USE IT!!
Alex Bailey reached into her bag after the light dimmed and pulled out a letter with a wax seal. She opened it and read it.
Dear Alex,
I know what your thinking, no this isn't a letter asking you to attend magic school, even though that may be coming soon. I'm writing you to tell you about what's coming and to tell you that everything is going to be ok.
I know this past year has been the worst year of your life. We've lost the most important person in our life. It does get better because in the next few days we're going to embark on an amazing journey that's going to change our life forever. We're going to find amazing friends, yes we have friends, adventure and happiness. In the next few days and in the next year, you are about to discover who you're truly meant to be and yes it's better than being a teacher or a scholar. It's a job that's literally out of a storybook.
During our journey, we will meet people who will try to change us and manipulate us because of how powerful we become. Not only status wise and you'll understand why in the next few years. Resist the change and power they will have over you. If you can't, just know that you have a brother that will never give up on you, and will pull you out of all the dark times in your life. You are about to become a very powerful person, but remember with great power comes great responsibility. This saying is so true!
Continue being the smart, dreamer we are. These qualities will help us on our way. We gain friends, a sweet and amazing husband, 2 sweet little girls, and the best job in the world. Buckle up little Alex, your worlds about to change.
From, Older Alex Bailey.
Ps. Be social! Go talk to the girl in the purple beanie. I know it doesn't look like it, but she is going to become one of your best friends and someone you can count on besides Conner.
Alex looked up from her letter and saw Bree walking over to her.
"Hi, I'm Bree." She said.
"Hi I'm Alex," Alex said. Then Conner walked over to the girls.
"Hi," Conner said to Bree. "I don't know if you know my name, but I'm Conner. I sit behind you in class."
"I know, I'm Bree. It's nice to officially meet you two."
