Chapter 1: The Freaky Old Bookstore.

Max was looking at an old book. In an old bookstore, which was filled with none other than old books. Old, old books.

This particular old book wasn't all that old. But instead, it was only about a week old. The bookstore had that effect. Turning new books into old. It also had that particular ability to make people for asleep, as it was currently affecting May.

"Can we go now?" Said May, upset that the knowledge of the books was seeping into her tiny mind. "No!" Said Max. "I want to see how this ends!"

The person selling the books turned to him and said, "If you want to see how it ends, why can't you buy it?" "Great!" Said Max, energetically.

The very second the deal was done, and the money paid, May grabbed Max by the arm and pulled him away. The bookdealer happily called out to them: "Have a nice day!"

"What where you thinking, Max? You know that I can't stand bookshops!"

"Why?"

"Why?!?! Because they just ooze with evil! I should get Blaziken to burn that book!"

The book just lay there. Max grabbed it and ran.

"Believe me, little brother, that book is evil! EVIL!"

Max got into his room. Though May didn't like books, it didn't mean that she couldn't burn it.

Max continued reading it. He became dizzy. "Maybe Max was right…" He said slowly. "Maybe this book is evil… Yeah right, and I'm a Tauros…" With that, he passed out.

"Do you WANT to be one?" Said a creepy voice from the beyond.

"Wa, what do you mean?" Said Max, confused. This wasn't his bedroom. It wasn't a forest. Not in the least bit tree-like.

"I mean, do you want to be a Tauros?"

"Nn, no! Ww, why would yy, you ask th, that question?" Max stuttered.

"Because you said you were one. It could be considered a lie, but I could rearrange it into the truth."

"NO! I mean, no, I don't want to be a Tauros."

"Very well. But please, don't think that doesn't mean I can't make you one."

"Anyway, why am I here."

"You bought my book."

"Your book? Don't you mean, MY book?"

"Allow me to explain. That book is a thrilling story that you can read over and over again, right? Well, if someone reads it, there is a chance they can unlock the true meaning of the book."

The voice seemed to fade, and a spirit appeared.

"Allow me, Max Maple, to tell you a story, one which will reveal the meaning of this meeting…"

So, what do you think? It seems good enough. Please, tell me what you think. Please Review it!
