Kumandra: The Story Continues-(2001)

by Dequincyx

While heading home from school, Bobby heads back to the bookstore to pay for the ancient book he un-earthed. There he re-encounters the old Asian bookstore owner, Mr. Chang, who tries to warn him away from the book, explaining that it is dangerous and that once entering it's world, the reader cannot escape. A warning Bobby dismisses. After all, it's only a story...right?

10. Recapping-(Part 2)

RECAPPING-(PART 2)

Bobby began to recap the events of Chapter 5. Chief Benja only seemed to get happier and happier at the celebration, especially when it began. Raya seemed to become more and more hopeful that he was returning to the father she had once known before her mother's death and believed with all her heart that this sudden change in her Dad was here to stay and not just temporary for the party.

How he wished his Dad would ditch the bottle and go back to being the man he was before his mother was killed. But the chances of that happening were zero-percent likely.

Sure, Raya's father was changing for the better, but he was just a character in a fairy-tale storybook. This was real life. And in real life...there were no happy endings. And judging by what he had read at the end of Chapter 5 after Raya and Fang communicated with each other, it didnt sound like there was going to be a happy ending for the world of Kumandra either.

Having now finished recapping Chapter 5, Bobby resumed silently reading the book. "Chapter 6: The Dinner Reception". Later that day, after communicating with each other for an hour and eating horderves, the people of all five kingdoms of Kumandra were now seated in the dining-room at a long table, eating dinner and fellowshiping together, with Chief Benja sitting at the left end of the table and Raya, Fang and the other three Princesses sitting next to each other."
