The real world was so much brighter than they remembered and there was no telling how long they had been gone. The adventure they had inside the box was perilous but it brought them closer. They became a family and now they were each ready to face their truths together.

Oaken Hills was a small town with a varied history. The whole town was built around a sacred tree. A long time ago according to the town's history a man named Oscar Oaken discovered the dilapidated and run down town of Oaken Hills and vowed to bring it back to life with the few locals who refused to leave. The only thing he had brought on his travels was a seed from an oak tree. It was customary in his family for many generations that once you reached 18 you were given a seed from the family’s oak tree and had to travel the world looking for a place to call home. Once you found that place you were to plant the seed and if you chose well then, the seed would bring prosperity and good luck to you.
Noah’s father is none other than the most famous baseball player in the whole of Oaken Hills. As a teenager he used to play for a very well-known team and received a lot of sponsors. It was right before he went up to bat that he slipped down a flight of stairs and broke his leg. His leg had healed but he was never able to play again due to the severity of the injury. This had broken him more than anything and he gave up on the sport he loved and destroyed anything to do with it. He became a well-known banker as a backup and it made him quite rich in Oaken Falls. When his son was born, he was overjoyed. This was his chance to play sports again and he was so happy he didn’t even care what sport
Sometimes people like Wren don’t have secrets because there are consequences to people finding out what they’re hiding. Mrs Quill was the only one who found out his secret and after making a deal with Wren she vowed to take it to her grave. It was on a late night after work that she didn’t want to cook dinner so she ate out at the diner on the way home. When she was leaving, she heard a noise coming from the alley behind the diner and thought someone might have been up to no good so she went to check. That’s when she saw Wren digging around the rubbish bins for his dinner. He would normally wait until after closing so he would never get caught but he had to skip lunch that day and
As Cassidy opened her eyes to a blinding sun, she was disrupted by Noah reaching out a hand to help her up. After checking if everyone was ok Dylan began to question where the storm and the entire town went. There were crops and farms all around them but the man in the trench coat was nowhere to be seen. Jill was able to pick up the box but it was too late for the box was empty and she unfortunately knew what that meant but she had been working too long to be caught out now and she came here on her own free will to help everyone else so it was too late to come clean. She had no choice but to blend in and do what she could.“I see you made it here in one piece. That was quite lucky of you.&rdquo
“That is the worst game guide I have ever seen and I play a lot of games at home.” Dylan said.“The only games you play at home are music simulators.” Noah replied.“I’ll have you know that all the guides in those games are far better than him. At least they know how to do their jobs.” Dylan replied.“How do we even know being a guide is his job?” J
The group landed in some kind of swamp where they somehow ended up getting separated. Dylan and Wren were together and Jill and Noah but there was no sign of Cassidy. The swamp was covered in an eerie layer of fog greatly reducing the visibility. Meanwhile in the castle the little girl warned Charles not only of where the group was but also of the man approaching them.“Our screens don’t seem to work here. Could it be some sort of a glitch?” Noah asked.“No, this shouldn’t be possible. Someone must be controlling these thing
Logan and Cassidy had both disappeared leaving the rest with an endless array of questions but before they could ask anything they themselves disappeared and awoke in some sort of castle. It seemed that Charles had regained enough control to be able to get them out of the swamp.“You’ll be safe here for now. I’m sorry I couldn’t get you away sooner.” Charles said.“Cassidy’s gone though but you know why don’t you Jill” Wren stated. “Why did you call him Logan?”
“There is just so much wrong with your story I don’t even know where to begin.” Noah said. “How do you expect us to believe in any of this?”“How did your sister end up here if she’s a real person? That makes no sense.” Dylan asked.“Sean Callister was supposed to be the greatest mind alive before the accident but it turns out he wasn’t so smart and that wasn’t really an accident.” Wren said.
The real world was so much brighter than they remembered and there was no telling how long they had been gone. The adventure they had inside the box was perilous but it brought them closer. They became a family and now they were each ready to face their truths together. The wizards were not used to this new world that looked nothing like their island.

All Cassidy could do was sit and watch as Jill walked out of the core. She reached out her hand, desperate to grab hold of her but stopped herself. She knew she had to let her go so all she could do was clutch onto her backpack and keep it safe. The next five minutes would be the most fear she ever felt in her entire life.The countdown hit zero and the core locked itself down. Officially no way in or out and everything went dark. The core shut down and violent tremors began within. There wasn’t anything they could do but hope it would work out. Jill, before resetting everything, also made sure to destroy any external connections both from her father's hacking and her own computers.
“This is probably a bad time to ask but given everything that’s going on, are you feeling okay Jill?” Cassidy asked.“Well, I just murdered my father and watched him die a gruesome death. Then I find out the original box died with him along with the gems needed to get you out of here. Now I have to find a way to erase the damage he did to this world and get rid of all the intruders he placed here before something else goes horribly wrong. Plus, on top of all of that, if I don’t get you three out of here soon, you may never be able to leave.” Jill explained. “Is there anything else I’m missing?”
“So the guy wasn’t crazy, he was just trying to protect your mum .” Cassidy said.“That last line makes him look pretty crazy but it's hard to tell.” Noah replied.As they were discussing what to make of the diary and the new mystery man that Mary had never mentioned to Jill, they began to hear footsteps approaching. Jill walked towards the entrance of the shrine and stood firm, waiting. There were at least six armed juggernauts including the doctors that Jill and Charles knew well.
The juggernaut's realm was vast with many small cities. The area Logan was seen in was nothing more than a dock filled with boats and warehouses. It wasn’t going to be easy to find him. Jill had enough of just about everything at this point and so she did the only thing she could.To prepare for what had to be done, she took a small sample of Cassidy’s potion and used it to build a small device. It looked like nothing more than a watch but it would be able to tell them if Sean and Logan were fully merged. If they were, then Jill would finally put a stop to the monster that was once her father.
“I always thought you looked familiar but I couldn’t remember why.” Dylan said.“I have told you before that your obsession with criminals was strange.” Noah added.As everyone looked over at Noah and Dylan in confusion, Noah was quick to explain Dylan's childhood dream of tracking down criminals of all kinds. It wasn’t until his father later gave him a love of music instead that would become his new dream. Dylan has an entire bookshelf full of profiles of all kinds of criminals throughout the decades and from al
After saying this to Cassidy, Jaune stood up and just left. The other wizards also fled along with anyone who was fighting for Logan. Cassidy remained on the floor trembling as she remembered her father's words. “Even the forgotten can be remembered”. Charles warned everyone fighting on his side of a possible trap and urged them to return to their kingdoms. Everyone agreed but the CEO stayed behind.“Jill, how exactly did you get the designs for the people of this world?” Cassidy asked.“We just used all the real-life inspir
As Dylan took to taking care of Wren’s wound, all other eyes were on Jill. She told them even with data slowly taking over, this wasn’t normal. Charles ran inside his core and scanned the whole area. It was just as Jill said. Cassidy, Dylan, and Noah were all under 40% data. To be in this world it was only natural to be slowly affected by data consumption but being human kept it as a very slow takeover. Once they left the box all data would have remained inside except for Noah due to his surgery.“What did you do to me?” Wren asked, pointing towards Logan.
As Charles arrived at the edge of the core, the others were already waiting for him on the platform nearby. It was a strange feeling for Charles to be both at the beginning of the end and at the very site where Jill met her end. There was no time to dwell on things outside of his control however as there were more important things to do.“I need to focus on removing each layer of security before we get to the core itself. After that, I need to focus on bringing Jill back. Use the hover disks you got from Tech Town and stay close but keep your eyes peeled.” Charles explained.“
