"uhh what is happening right now?" Said Luis looking at a poster

"I can piece together a theory" said Gemma narrowing her eyes

"That tiny runt left your sister to become famous , how heartless" said Pete "also , are we still gonna not say the 4th letter of the alphabet"

"I'm not sure this is the right time to ask but yes" said Gemma looking frowning "how cou_...how...I give up"

"If see his tiny face again , that skull isn't gonna be the only bone people are gonna see poking out of his body" said Luis angrily "it's...tough to make sentences with this challenge"

(Btw the challenge doesn't extend to me , but feel free to not use the letter d in the comments for the memes)

"But You're looking at his face right now?" said Pete

"It's an expression" said Luis annoyed "and his...book is terrible!"

"You got nothing right?" Said Gemma smiling

Luis just nodded and they went to talk to Luz

"Hey Luz" said Luis as he walked into their room

"Oh Luis ,why aren't you with Gemma and Pete , you know , for the story" said Luz smiling nervously

"King left you right?" Said Luis frowning

"Oh ,yeah...that" said Luz frowning

"I'm gonna break every bone in his skeleton" said Luis angrily

"It's okay Luis , you don't have to do anything" said Luz looking glum

"Hey Luz!" King's happy voice was heard "guess who won the writing competition and became a blockbuster writer superstar , you're right it's me!"

"So will be your lifeless corpse soon" said Luis furious

"Luis" said Luz frowning

Hearing this , Luis sighed and stepped back from the conversation

"Uh , wanna touch my scarf someone_" said King happily showing his scarf

"No" said Luis angrily but Luz just gave King the silent treatment

"Uh anyway , my publisher is throwing a huge party for my book •Ruler's reach• and I uh I'd like for you to be there" said King putting a red envelope on the table Luz was writing on

But Luz just pushed it off the table

"Alright fine , be that way I guess" said King before leaving the room

As King left the room Luz sighed

"Girl , you don't need him" said the type writer demon

"I agree with typewriter over here" said Luis frowning

"But I don't wanna be mad at him either" said Luz before opening the red envelope

"Are you gonna go there?" Asked Luis

"I guess I should congratulate him a bit" said Luz looking at the invite "btw what happened to you and Gemma's story?"

"Well , it was a flop , and we threw it away after , we made a foolish challenge to not use the 4th letter in the alphabet in the story and now we won't say it until this story stuff goes by" said Luis scratching his hair

"So that's why you were talking so weird" said Luz making a snap "so what's the story about"

"Let's talk about it on the way there" said Luis smiling

"So then the hero pulls the grey spear "Petram" from the earth , the spear becomes black as it's power overflows , the hero then challenges the tyrant to a duel!" said Gemma telling Luz the story "pretty great for 3 beginners right?"

"It's an amazing story , the grammar and words are a bit iffy though" said Luz as she read the story

"It happens when you can't use the 4th letter of the alphabet" said Luis smiling

"Yeah , I can't see a single "D" not even the end but "the conclusion"" said Luz smiling

"I see you're cheery again" said Luis smiling

"Yeah" said Luz smiling

"Yes! My glory made others smile" said Pete happily

"I'm going to rip that selfish feral cat in half!!!" Yelled Luis angrily "esa basura egoísta!!!"

(This was google translated so don't expect perfect accuracy)

"Calm down! Also you didn't use the letter that's great , but calm down" said Pete "geez I'm not usually the voice of reason here"

"Yeah calm down , we're all angry. Pete know when to not talk about something , because this is not the time!" Said Gemma frowning

The reason Luis was so angry , was that he heard what King said to Luz

Luz couldn't even tell him to calm down

Then they met a green lizard guy with (blue hair?)

And he trapped them

In a purple box

"King!" Luz called out

"Luz!" Said King

"That snappily dressed lizard trapped us in this shrinking box!" Said Luz if fear before the box shrunk

And the three teens and staff screamed

"You have to get us out of here King" said Luis worriedly

"What're you doing with her!" Said King angrily "let her go!"

"We're here too you know!" Said Gemma frowning

"You wrote ruler's reach together , so if you don't want her crushed , you'll write together again" said the lizard guy

"Again! We're here too" said Gemma annoyed

"Just ignore it" said Luis rolling his eyes "this is your fault for breaking my weapon stash Pete"

"Sorry about that" said Pete embarrassed

Both barely hearing Luz talk about pressure ,something ,unrealistic expectations

"Set her free now!" Demanded King

"Not until I get my best seller" said lizard guy "you're still under contract"

Then King floated and was magically thrown into the shrinking box

"Make your deadline or you'll never be able to hold a pen again" said lizard guy then he showed them something "just like him"

It was the stereotypical author from before

Lizard guy then opened a briefcase that had many other authors who were screaming for help and put stereotypical there

"Looking forward to your next volume" said lizard guy before leaving

"That guy wasn't even put in the case correctly" said Luis frowning

"This is not the time

"We're not getting out of here until we write a book and that'll take forever" said King "we're cube meat"

"Well , we have my story" said Luz with her story in hand

"But it's all hugging and crying , I can't put my name on that" said King

"Oh in the name of Ferox's antlers" said Pete angrily "this was for fun you moron! Why else am I still not saying the 4th letter , it's not for fame or honor , I was the staff of a creature who's name alone brought terror , and I choose to put my name on the garbage they call a story! no offense"

"None taken" said Gemma

"A little bit taken" said Luis frowning

"So work together to make something!" Ordered Pete "I don't wanna be crushed and I'm out of power until Luis here learns some negative magic"

King sighed after hearing this

"Luz you're living your dream , you're becoming a witch but this celebrity thing was the closest I'll ever get to mine" said King guiltily "and I let it get into my head and I hurt you , I'm sorry"

And so they made up, and Luz had a plan to get them out of here but they'll have to work together

fortunately that's what they do best

"Faster than expected" said the lizard after King called out for him

"That's the miracle of teamwork" said King with fake cheeriness

Then lizard guy began reading through the story

"This is much more gushy than your last book" said the lizard guy with clear frustration

"Skip to the finale , because it's quite a payoff" said King

"Yeah , it's amazing" said Gemma

"Words can't describe it" said Luis

Then lizard guy began reading through to the end , and saw...a drawing

"What is this all about?!" Said lizard guy in anger showing a glyph

"Light spell!" Said Luz as she tapped the glyph

Then a light spell was summoned and lizard man was blinded

Then Luis hit him with Pete

He screamed in pain

"The horns aren't just for looks" said Pete "King stop talking about making that enlightening pun"

"Oh yeah!" Said King "pretentious scarf! Go!"

Then King wrapped lizard guy in the scarf and pulled him towards the box

Then they took King's contract and tore it to pieces

Then the shrinking box broke and they were free

"I made you a star! And this is how you repay me?!" Said Lizard guy angrily

"No , this is!" Said King before opening lizard's briefcase freeing the boxed authors

Then they tried to leave but lizard guards stopped them

"This is my que!" Said Gemma before climbing onto one of two guards

And she broke their neck , of course in a non lethal way

"I love the rush!" Said Gemma "I can't believe I was capable of preforming that set of actions"

"You're really committed to the challenge aren't you?" Asked Luz

"Yep" said Gemma smiling

"You're making this harder than it needs to be, and believe me , I'm being very patient" said Lizard guy angrily before transforming his pen into an axe "but let's cut to the finish"

Then the door slammed open and Nose girl appeared?

"King! I am your biggest fan" said nose girl before walking like the guards weren't even there "and I fought my way back here for you to wead my stowy"

"This is both cute and terrifying" said Gemma cringing from the sight of the guards

"Yep" said Luis cringing from guard's injuries

"If I read this , will you go?" Asked Lizard guy angrily "so I can annihilate them in peace!"

"Of course" said nose girl happily

Then lizard guy began reading it and he loved it

"It's beautiful, you! You must let me publish this" said Lizard guy "I can make you a star"

"Wait a minute , what about_" said King but Luis covered his mouth

"So are we okay now? , can we leave in peace?" Asked Luis

"Yes , quite" said Lizard mane making a shooing gesture

"I don't wanna see a book again in my life" said Luis frowning

"You could say that again" said Luz tiredly

"Say it three times" said King tiredly

"Make it four" said Gemma tiredly

"Nope it's a five" said Pete

Then they heard

"It's the writers of Petram" said a demon holding their book

Then the demon ran to them

"Please sign the book" said The demon holding the notebook that held Luis and Gemma's story "i will make it a family heirloom!"

"How was it possible thagwe put our faces on it but never signed it?" Asked Luis tiredly

"That was a mistake" said Gemma tiredly

"Give me that for a sec" said Luis as he took the notebook

Then he grabbed a nearby torch and burned the book

"Have my pen and leave" said Luis giving the demon a pen

The demon's eyes lit up after his hope was destroyed

He took the pen and left

"That was random pen I stole from someone btw" said Luis frowning

And then they left

Tess was with Eda the whole time , books weren't her thing , animation was more like it

She looked at Lilith's during that trip with Eds

Why was Lilith so desperate to heal Eds despite Eda herself saying she doesn't want to

It was suspicious

But now is not the time

So she went home sitting comfortably on Eda's head

This wasn't my best work but it was decent

So

Roses are red

Writing can be brutal

I like noodles

Toodles.
