Hi there, updating again, to make up for my lack of updation in recent times. Okay then-, enough of my blabbing away, read chapter four!

Penny sat on her bed at the Freeport inn, engrossed in her book. Tonight she was reading a book on the Anthropic Principle. It was different, and definitely didn't totally follow with her beliefs on evolution, but at least it wasn't another Darwinism theory. To Penny, Yes, Evolution happened, but not the way described by Darwinism. There were too many gaps. Penny was never very religious, and didn't strictly believe in God, but she believed in what made sense. God made sense, evolution did too, Darwinism did not. Even though she was firmly rooted in her own beliefs, and the Anthropic Principle was not one of them, she always had felt it best to see each point of view. Now, if Darwin had only taken into account that---

A faint knock on the door interrupted her musings. She glanced nervously at Chelsea, who she was rooming with. Chelsea didn't stir.

Penny crossed to the door quickly, knowing it would be Rudy. Trying to keep as quiet as possible, he only said one word: "Chalkzone?"

"Of course."

She quickly followed him down the hall, turning into his room. Rudy rummaged through his bag, until he found his mini chalkboard. Quickly drawing the portal, he slipped in. Penny followed.

"Wow. I don't think I've ever seen this part of chalkzone before."

"Well, you wouldn't have, would you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well, considering that Chalkzone is made up of things that people draw all over the world, it must be quite large, and then considering the fact that each chalk board opens to a different spot then you can't have expected to come out right on the dot, could you? And then there's the fact that the realworld-to-Chalkzone distance ratio is about 1:3, I'd say that we're about three times as far from your Chalkboard then Freeport is from Plainsville, which means that we're approximately," Penny screwed up her face in concentraion, "One-thousand twenty-four miles from your entrance."'

After all this time, Rudy should be used to Penny doing these amaxing mathematical and scientific feats. He wasn't, "Then where are we going to go? I don't know anythign about this area, and I don't think Snap's here, this is pretty far away, so I don't think I know any people here, either."

Penny stopped, and said slowly, as if to herself, "I do."

Hope that you liked this chapter, and sorry it's so short. I hope to post again tonight, though, to make up for it. Thanks, Crimson Lugia, for reviewing, and please, everyone, please, if you are reading this story, please review. Flames are accepted.
