Joel was about 14 years old.He lived with his adopted mom and 2sisters,also his cousin was visting.His real family was tradjically killed in a car accident.Anyways he was told not to go into the basebent because of a flood.So fiannly curiousity got the best of him and he crept down while his "family" was in the back yard.He was in the basement when he saw that the side of the wall was cracked in half.It wedged it open and slipped through.He was in a closed off romm.He glanced around and saw an old box..he opened and saw a book.He flicked through and saw a spell that would rapidly shrink something.he chuckled to himself and said"As if this would ever work...it would insult my intelligence toread it....ahh i have to."He began to recite the spell"Wrikkle Yarsha besshop umna uman incho..hmm those are stupid words...oh well"He felt a small twinge all over his body but dismissed it.hewalked up the stairs and then when he reached the kitchen he blacked out.When he woke up he saw himself in a house.Butnot his house..he saw a table full off food..he bit a peice of pizza and hurt his mouth...The food was plastic!He felt a shake and the house roof lifted up and he saw his"sisters"head.She reached down towards him and he took off.Se may have only been 12 but she was fast ,she grabbed him with her massive hands and hauled him up."I know youre really my adopted brother and i dont know how youve become so small but youre all mine now"she said while she grinned."No"he yelled.She laughed at him whle he tried to squirm free."youre so tiny and pathetic i could snap you in two."He suddenly felt himself grow smaller..he was 2 inches high now."ooo youre smaller now,you fit perfectly in my hand now...heh great."He bit her his hardest and she dropped him."Ow you stupid pest..thats it i never liked you in the first place."He took off running,she slammed her fist behind him and he fell.She stood up,he glanced at her..she was like 3000 feet high to him.Her foot raised to squish bim but as it was about to mush him she stopped."Hmm on second thought ill just leave you here...you can try and get help and for yourself...ill come back for you later..hee hee hee."Joel was sad..he was going to be alot smaller before she cambe back..his only hope was to get some help beofre then.His cousin and her friend were only on the other side of the deck,around the corner.If he could make it to them...He ran as fast as he could as he turned around the corner,he shrunk again,only this time he was about 5 cm tall.He yelled to them and his cousins friend glanced down at him,"yes she saw me"he thought."Ewwwwww a bug...gross."Se tried to step on him...he just dodge it,he began to run was getting away but he bumped into his "cousin,sara's toe.He flew back and landed on his behind."dont kill the poor little bug"She plucked him between her fingers and set himon her hand.She opened her hand only to see...
nothing..at least thats what it appeared.All she was a tiny black dot..."hmmm i guess it fell off my hand."but that wasnt the case..he got even smaller.He was screaming for help but he fell off her hand and onto her friends shoe and was knocked unconcious."you know whats funny"sara said"he looked like joel..and sounded like him too for a sec there...you think..you think he found that book??"Her friend replied"Naw that thing was totally hidden.""yea youre right."They walked back into the house.When joel woke up again he found himself on a rough coarse area...it was the kitchn floor.He was even smaller...he must have been about 1/4 of a mm high!He saw his cousin and his mom at the table..their booming voices wear deafening but he could almost make out what they were saying"
"He found the book...hes shrunken,or shrinking rather...your sister confessed it to me.."
"all islost then,mom..unless he can gained our attention..."
"i hope so..we better not move from here..i dont want to step on him by accident.""ok"
He was about a mile away from her foot.He ran it in a half an how.But he shrunk even more...hes like a dust paticle now.He stared up at her mountainsized toe.he had no problem climbing up her toe.Then straight up her leg.Finally after 15 minutes of climbing he wa son the table..now what?He yelled and screamed..and yelled some more.No luck...but by a fluke of fait sara saw him.
"Look its him!"
"Yea its me"he yelled but nobody heard.
"climb onto my hand!"He climbed up her finger and she gently set him in her hand.It was bigger than his city ...he tried to see past her hand but he couldnt.It was so large...he felt the now familiar feeling and shrunk even more.He was invisable t the naked eye.
"Joel,Joel???Mom go get the book!"He covered his ears to try and drown out the drilling sound.She stared at him,her heavy breathing pushing him down.The cracks in her hand were like large canyons...his mom came back up the stairs.
"here goes..i hope this works.."he recites the spell and joel slowly grew back to his normal size!He was happy and that night they burned the book,and all its secrets.
