Jack reached inside his drawer and pulled out his ML Card which officially proved that he was a Master Librarian. Jack and Annie were going on a vacation with their family. In the meantime Annie wanted to go to Frog Creek woods and see if the Magic tree house was there. So she and Jack asked their parents if they could go outside for 10 minutes. Jack understood that it would take 5 minutes to go to the tree house and 5 minutes back hime.
The missions always took no amount of time because they were going in a book. When they arrived Morgan greeted them with a warm smile and told them the title of the book she wanted them to retrieve. It was in Roman times. Morgan asked them if the had their ML cards with them. They said yes and so she told them the book they needed . It was called "Life in Roman Times". Annie said she wished she could go there and so Jack and Annie were swirling with wind. Right before they entered the story Morgan said she will help them blend in.
When the two kids opened their eyes they saw themselves wearing Roman clothes. The tree house was covered with trees surrounding it. It also had lots of grove plants. Suddenly the Earth began to rumble. Annie thought it was a sign for them to leave but Jack wanted to keep on going.
When they arrived at the town they saw a bunch of merchants and shops shouting their goods. This was called a forum. A forum is the center of the town where people talk about politics and Sell goodies. One old lady told them "THE END IS NEAR!" She was a Soothsayer. She could tell the future and what was going to happen. Now people don't believe in Soothsayers and what they say. Jack and Annie hid behind a wooden cart.
Soon they explored more about the town. They saw a huge building and Jack read the book to know what it was. It was a basically a pool which people played sports and also swam. They mostly took baths in that building.
They went further until finally they saw the same old lady who said that the end was near. Annie thought she was very interesting and so she went to the lady. She talked and talked until she invited Jack. Annie said the Lady knew what was happening because of all the signs. One was that the water was drying up while the other was that the birds were missing. They showed their ML cards and she was surprised to see Master Librarians. They asked where the library was. She told them where it was [a few blocks]
When they entered the Brutus Library they checked all the rooms until finally they saw a bunch of scrolls and searched them. They finally found the book that matched the title of what they were looking for.
Suddenly a loud noise struck the air around them. Lava rocks were shooting everywhere. When they hit the ground they turned into sponge shaped rocks. They tied a pillow around there heads to protect them from the rocks. Everybody was going away from the Mount Vesuvius. That was where the lava rocks were being shot. They arrived at the grove where the tree house was seen. The couldn't get out of the hole and reach the tree house until Hercules [Greek Legend, Zeus's Son] came and saved the day.
THE END
