quote:
You creep quickly and quietly down the stairs. You notice your muscles getting smaller and smaller.
"We have to save WoodsWorld," Todd tells Lauren again. "But I sure don't know how."
"Maybe I can help," you say from the shadows. "Did you miss me?"
"You're free!" Lauren cries out when she sees you. "And your muscles are gone."
"It seems the farther underground I went, the smaller my muscles got. And as long as we can't hear the troll's whistle, we're safe," you explain.
"But how did you escape from him?" Lauren asks. "And how did you get down here? And how - "
"Hold on, hold on," you interrupt. "It's a long story. We don't have time to talk now. Right now we've got to get out of here and stop the troll before he takes over WoodsWorld and maybe even the whole world!"
"But how do we get out of here?" Todd asks.
"Well," you say, searching around the cellar for the best answer. "We can go up the stairs. Or we can go through that dark tunnel over there." You point across the cellar to a dark tunnel.
Which way will you go?
Climb up the stairs on PAGE 77.
Go through the dark tunnel on PAGE 100.

quote:
"What is it, Lauren?" you and Todd exclaim. You both reach her at the same time.
"I went the wrong way! I saw the troll! So I turned down another tunnel and ended up on the other side of the Cave of Rose Crystals," Lauren explains. "I walked through the cave, and here I am back at this tunnel!"
"What!?" Todd shouts in his nerdy way. "We all discovered the greatest treasure in the world together. Are you saying you went in the treasure cave without us?"
Lauren can't stop laughing.
"What's so funny?" you ask.
"The Cave of the Rose Crystals," Lauren says. "It isn't the greatest treasure in the world. It is a storeroom for the souvenirs of WoodsWorld! These aren't rose crystals - they're plastic!"
"You mean it's not a treasure?" Todd asks.
"Not unless you like pink plastic heart necklaces that say 'My heart belongs to WoodsWorld.'" Lauren giggles.
"All our hearts do belong to WoodsWorld. It's where we always go every summer," you say. "That's why we have to save it from the troll!" You look into the dark tunnel and wonder what to do.
quote:
The three of you stare down the dark tunnel. The darkness goes on forever. The decision is made instantly. "The stairs!" you all say at once.
You lead the way up the stairs. Todd is right behind you, and Lauren is behind him. You are careful, trying not to slip on the steep stairs. You look straight ahead and move very slowly. Before you get to the last step, you turn to make sure Todd and Lauren are still behind you.
It's so dark. You can't see anything.
"Lauren?" you call out. "Todd? Are you guys there?"
If they are behind you, turn to PAGE 118.
If they are not behind you, go to PAGE 82.

Maybe this is more of a Greenland/Iceland scenario, and all the Werewolves are over in Troll & Cereal Woods.

quote:
Todd and Lauren are not behind you!
You turn around and start to go back down the stairs to see what happens to them. BLAM! Something soft hits you in the face. It feels like a large pillow. You can't breathe. You scream as loud as you can.
"What's all the screaming in here?" you hear your dad ask.
You pull the big pillow off your face. You see your dad gazing down at you.
"Time to get up," he says. "Come on. Todd's waiting for you to go to the kids-only campfire. You must have dozed off for a few minutes while you were unpacking."
"Kids-only campfire?" you ask in a daze. "Haven't we already done that?"
"Every year, the same old same old," your dad mutters. "Just like always. Nothing unexpected ever happens at WoodsWorld. You can always count on that."
"Whatever you say, Dad." You smile. "Whatever you say."
You learned a long time ago that saying "whatever you say, Dad" is the perfect reply when you want to bring a conversation with your dad to

...I have to ask. Is there an achievement for collecting all the 'just a dream' endings, or are we fortunate enough to have already done that?
And our friends would never leave us if they knew what greater bullshit that would lead to.

...I have to ask. Is there an achievement for collecting all the 'just a dream' endings, or are we fortunate enough to have already done that?
Thankfully, that was the last one.
quote:
"We're here," Lauren says from the darkness.
"Keep up with me, guys," you instruct.
"I'm trying to," Lauren answers, "but I feel so weak."
"Me, too," Todd whines. "I have no strength."
"Well, fine superheroes you all turned out to be," you tease them. "How are we going to get rid of the troll if you can't even get up the stairs?"
You reach into your pocket and pull out a small fistful of SUPER-STRENGTH O's. "Here," you say, holding your hand out to your friends. "This should help. As long as we're underground the troll has no power. Get your strength back with these O's."
The three of you eat a little bit of the O's and sit on the stairs waiting for the expected results. You casually put your hand in your other pocket and pull out another handful of O's. They look exactly like the other O's, but you know you only had SUPER-STRENGTH O's in one pocket.
Uh-oh! Somebody must have planted other O's in the other pocket.
If you ate from the right pocket, go to PAGE 63.
If you ate from the left pocket, go to PAGE 92.

Thankfully, that was the last one.
Scratch that, just remembered there's an "it's all a dream - OR WAS IT?!" scenario on the Smarts Box path. I might just offer that achievement after all if we get it...
quote:
You ate the O's from your right pocket. What does that mean? you wonder.
"These SUPER-STRENGTH O's aren't working at all!" Todd whines. "I feel even weaker than I did before I ate them."
"And you look really funny, Todd," Lauren says strangely.
"Aw, come on, Lauren," you start to defend your nerdy friend. "He can't help what he looks like."
quote:
"No, really," Lauren insists. "I mean Todd's body is now the size of a thimble, and he has a fish head instead of his own head! He really does look funny!"
"Come to think of it, Lauren, you're not looking too normal yourself!" Todd says through his new fish lips.
Sure enough, Lauren and you and Todd ate from the right pocket, which turns out to have been the absolute wrong pocket. That wasn't SUPER-STRENGTH O's you ate. It was FISH-IN-AN-INSTANT food!
Never trust a troll. They're always up to something fishy, especially when they live by a lake.
"Time to go swimming, my fine finned friends," the troll announces, as he pops out from under the stairs. He nods his head and magically transports the three of you to the middle of Deep Woods Lake. Sad to say, when it comes to fish tales, you'll be the greatest tale ever told!
