Jenny Lilly and Artemis felt something very strange happen, as the eerie glow of the three books reached them. To Lilly in particular, the feeling was very familiar. It was much like when the sun had changed her that first day- only not quite the same. It was like the world was wrapping around her body in some way. Everything was changing. The feeling was indescribable. Maybe now they can get out of this libra-


The squirrel girl opened her eyes, and realised she was not in the library any more. Something felt really strange too. She was lying on a very soft bed. Was it all a dream? No it couldn't have been. She slowly rose up in the unfamiliar room. It seemed warm and cosy. A fireplace was at one side with- a very weird portrait of herself? "Jenny? Artemis?" She called- even her voice sounded different. it was still that same strange girly voice, only just a little... deeper? And- What the-?!

Lilly bolted upright on the bed. She was older, that was obvious. If she were to guess, she was her old age again- but still a girl! She was struggling to get past the feeling of the four swellings on her body, and instead focused on the incredibly frilly dress she was wearing. It was pink, and seemed to be some kind of a gown. There was a strange elliptical shaped hole placed in the chest area, which drew attention to the way her four breasts pressed on each other making a kind of square or cross shape on her furry body. Her twin tails were somehow able to move with incredible ease, in what she was wearing.

The squirrel girl should have been more panicked then she was, but for some reason in this body the fog of childhood receded, imparting a lot of her old thinking patterns. While it didn't give her new knowledge, she was able to analyse the situation thinking with maturity- though still with some panic. She smoothed the frilly dress as she got up, feeling a sudden compulsion to place something sitting on her bedside on her head.

lying on the bed side was her blue stick, which she took quickly as a weapon to defend herself against- well against whatever was happening.

It was at this point she realised just how colourful everything was here. It was like someone had switched on a bright light of primary colour. She knew she wasn't home any more. But where was she?

Princess Lilly was then interrupted by her magic knight, on the most urgent situation of her kingdom

Wait what? The squirrel girl glanced around but couldn't see where that weird voice came from. The door opened and- once again she was shocked.

It was Jenny.

Only the white haired girl was wearing some kind of magical armour. Just like Lilly, she too had four curves pressing onto a the top of her fabric. Almost like... a magic girl's armour?

"Princess Lilly I have urgent news to impart to you." As soon as she said that though, Jenny blinked. "Uh- Lilly?" she asked as her memory started to settle down. They were in the library then she ended up in a castle... and... for some reason she knew she had to come into this room? What in the world was going on? Why was Lilly wearing that! She had to admit though that dress was gorgeous.

"J-Jenny! We- you- I-" Lilly drew a breath. "We're older!" she couldn't believe it. She felt with a sudden blush how her own chest seemed actually the 'larger' one? Not by much, but... it was noticeable. Or was it just because she was a little shorter? but Jenny was the more girly! Why did she get the bigger ones? Then again, her mother's were like this too. Did she inherent that? Or was this just because of the story and she was apparently 'the princess'. But all these questions she had to put aside. "Where are we!"

"I- I don't know," said the magic girl confused. "Princess-" the compulsion to call her that was still there.

"I'm not a princess!" Lilly said aghast. It was just this stupid dress she was wearing! She tried to take it off, but she couldn't quite figure out how. In the end she tried to pull the dress over her head. She succeeded, but the dress just somehow materialised itself around her again. "Ah!" she screamed.

"I- I need to think," said Jenny. "The last thing I remember, we were checking out the books from the library. The ghost- It wouldn't let us leave until we did so, right?"

Lilly frowned a little as she realised the object she put on her head. A tiara of some kind. This was getting worse by the minute. Sure she accepted she was a girl, but this was going right into the deep end! Princesses didn't even look like this- except in stories. "Uh.. oh..."

Jenny looked over the window to the tower. What greeted her was a strange land. There seemed to be a forest, surrounding them. The air was crisp and clean... yet there was a certain unreality to it. She knew it wasn't a real place. Castle and water, trees of red apples... this wasn't real, just a reflection of reality. It was ...

"... We're in a story," said Lilly aghast.

Jenny frowned a bit. Inside a book? Could that be possible? But- a story wasn't real! There wasn't any way of going 'inside' a story.

Lilly was having other thoughts now. "The librarian said we had to return before the due date- or we get penalised. Um- you don't suppose..."

"If we don't get out of here soon? We could be stuck here forever." Jenny gulped.

Lilly looked in near panic. "Nuh uh! I'm not gonna be a princess forever!" But then an idea struck her. "But Jenny- if this is a story we just gotta get to the end. And since it's a story the good girl always wins, right?"

Jenny pursed her lips as the enormity of the situation. Sure the good girl wins- unless you were the grandmother of red riding hood, or the little match girl... stories could be horrific. "We have to be careful Lilly. We can't allow this story to end 'happily ever after'. It would mean we stay here forever."

Lilly glanced down at her princess gown in rising panic.

Jenny however was thinking things very carefully. Something about this was still bothering her. "I... I think I understand now. We went to the library thinking there was a monster there... but all we found was a- a ghost. I think we had it wrong. The ghost wasn't the monster." That was the only theory that made any sense. "But that doesn't mean there isn't a monster in the library. Tetra definitely detected Something."

"So... where is the monster?" Lilly asked calming herself down now.

"I think the ghost sent us to where the monster was hiding. Inside the books... it... it must want us to fix the story-world." Though what the ghost actually was, remained a mystery for now. Still if it was some kind of book guardian... why else would it send them here? Jenny didn't sense anything malicious in it... just an urgency. Whatever was going on, they had to come here. Something in her was telling her, the monster was close. If they had to endure being in a story book for now, it shouldn't be a problem. She actually liked the idea of being a knight. The strange uniform looked like her mothers police uniform. Was this what it was like to be a grown up?

Lilly smoothed her dress, still a little bothered by the fact she was wearing such a frilly thing. She tried her best to ignore all the implications of it. This wasn't real exactly, and when they got out of the story book they would return back to their old self- new self- urgh whatever. It was getting too confusing now. Still if this was a story book, maybe they had to go along with it until they found the monster. It just meant that they had to get out of the book 'before' the story ended.

"You er- had to tell me something?" Asked Lilly in the end. That was where the story started.

Jenny frowned a bit then the important news lit up in her mind. "There is a curse on your kingdom, and only the moon-child can undo it." The way she said it sounded so practised. They had to get out of here! They might just become nothing but fictional characters if they didn't.

Lilly nodded. That meant there was a good chance that they had to find Artemis. She must be in this world somewhere. "W-What's the curse?" The squirrel girl said blinking.

Suddenly a mechanical doll burst into the room. Jenny reacted as any knight would protecting the princess. The entire kingdom had turned into these dolls by a wicked witch! However the magical knight quickly took the princess in her arms, and leapt out the window.

"T-this isn't a very girly story!" Lilly said screaming as they fell out of the castle tower.
