Chapter 2
Getting the Book
After I finally got my science homework done, I went looking for a birthday gift for my friend Alexis on e-bay. She liked old stuff but not like antiques. Think 50s-80s. Anyway I found an old eight -track player and it was really cheap, like 7 bucks or something. So I bid on it and I won. About a week and a half later I got a moderately large package in the mail. I opened it and took out the eight-track player and wrapped it. Then I picked up the box to put in the garage (I'm kind of a pack rat) and I heard a thump, like there was something else in the billion little pieces of Styrofoam. I dug around for a few minutes hoping that there wasn't another piece of the player I forgot to wrap. I wound up with about twenty pieces of Styrofoam in my hair and a book. It was about the size of a small hardcover dictionary, with metal on the corners and no title on the side. Then I noticed I was holding it upside down. When I flipped it over I saw it's one word title: Myst.
