The Log Book

PLEASE Review! Remember, your reviews give me the motivation to write! I almost lost motivation for only getting one review on my second chapter!

Oh noes. I just escaped from- some factory under the school and I stole some papers saying something about a Project Scribblenaut. Unfortunately for me, I dropped the papers somewhere, and I think my teacher may be on to me.

That was a terrifying moment for me. As the final school bell rang, and I slowly made my way to the teacher's desk, everyone else around me being oblivious to my situation and making their way out of here, while I was making my way through the traffic to the Teacher's Desk. I eventually reached the desk, and waited as everyone left before I said, "What's up?" The teacher said, "I saw you drop something." He said as he put something on his desk. Wait a minute, that's the envelope! I looked at it confused. "This is yours, isn't it, Maxwell?" He asked me. I just stared at the envelope. A part of my mind wanted to take the envelope, but the other part didn't want to lie to Mr. Knots about the envelope. But I let my curiosity get the best of me. I grabbed the envelope and just said, "Thank you," to Mr. Knots. I saw him wink at me. What did that mean? I sure hope he's not gay… or maybe he is! That's why he was being nice to me all these years! Nah. I know he's not gay. Just messing with ya.

My mom picked me up from school. We got to our place and as soon as I stepped foot in our house, I zipped right up to my room. I did my homework really fast; I didn't even care if my answer were right or not. What? Why did I do my homework if I didn't even care if I got an F on it? Well, I wasn't thinking straight at the time, but anyways, I was so excited and nervous to see what I might find in this very special envelope. I carefully opened the green envelope, and released its contents onto my bed. What was inside this envelope was a bunch of papers with complicated, ineligible words that the average 11-Year Old couldn't read, of which I am highly.

But, I also found a green notebook with some hexagons on it like on the design of the envelope. Except that red hexagon in the middle was missing. Don't know why, but anyways I opened the Notebook and began reading. It was in a diary format, which each page being a diary entry. Some of the first pages were missing. I read the first date:

I continued:

Project Scribblenaut Log Book Entry #: 03

Wait a minute… it, this is a Log Book? I looked at the notebook once more. Looks more like a Journal to me.

We, the staff of 5th Cell, have been discussing for quite some time now about a Project Scribblenaut. If our efforts prove fruitful, this will benefit all of Paper-kind! But right now, the idea is still in its Pre-Gamma stage. Not even Alpha. We have decided that we will continue to work on this Project Scribblenaut and continue to work at it until it takes full flight. But right now, we're going to have to keep quiet about its existence. We wouldn't want any commotion with the city folk now would we? We created this Log Book to keep record of this Project… in case anyone gets any ideas, or in case anyone "forgot" about this

5th Cell? Commotion with the City Folk? Keeping Quit? Pre-Gamma? Project Scribblenaut? Fruitful? Existence? Discussing? Have? What could all of this mean? I HAD to read on.

Project Scribblenaut Log Book Entry #: 04

We have continued to work at Project Scribblenaut until it was complete. We have decided to place our headquarters in the middle of You-Topia. A certain Scribble StarPower Source there has been catching our eye for quite some time now. We must make sure no one finds out about our plan. We have disguised our HQ as an Elementary School. Only those who knew about this Project would have access to our HQ.

Wow, this seems interesting… wait, there's something crossed out here. Oh well, if its in pen, then I guess they couldn't have taken it out. I cannot read what it says, but its probably unimportant. Moving on…

Project Scribblenaut Log Book Entry #: 05

Project Scribblenaut is going as planned. We are still planning on how to get our hands on the Scribble Star into the underground labyrinths which hold the Scribble Star Power Source and reach a comfortable distance from the Scribble Star Power Source in which we can study and observe it without any… "mishaps" occurring. Someone had the idea to disguise as send in our top scientists into the labyrinths where we will be monitoring them from our giant radar and lead them to the chamber holding the Scribble Star monitoring the Scribble Star Power Source so we can learn more about this amazing Source of Power.

This seems interesting… it appears to be written at a much faster pace than the other Log Book Entries with much more mistakes. Hmm…

I slowly flipped the page, but then I felt really sleepy and crashed on the bed with the Log Book resting on my side.
