Ethan remembered the countless hours they spent together as children, exploring the hidden corners of their grandparents' attic. Aidan's imagination had always been boundless, but this newfound fixation seemed to take that imagination to a whole new level.

The Enigmatic Professor and the Obscure Book

Through Aidan's notes and journals, Ethan discovered a connection to a reclusive professor known only as Dr. Montgomery. With Aidan's disappearance, Ethan reached out to the enigmatic professor in search of answers.

Dr. Montgomery, shrouded in mystery, agreed to meet with Ethan and revealed the existence of an ancient book, said to hold the secrets of a hidden world. This book was rumored to have the power to transport individuals to other dimensions, but at a great cost.

The Forbidden Ritual

Intrigued and desperate for closure, Ethan agreed to undertake a forbidden ritual described within the pages of the ancient book. Guided by Dr. Montgomery, Ethan embarked on a dangerous journey to a secret location where the ritual could be performed.

The ritual involved traversing through a treacherous labyrinth, where ancient symbols glowed mysteriously on the walls. Each step forward felt heavier, as if the weight of the unknown pressed down upon their shoulders. As they approached the final chamber, a sense of dread consumed Ethan. He knew that whatever lay ahead would bring him face to face with the truth he had been seeking.

The Revelation and the Vanishing

Within the last chamber, dimly lit by flickering torches, Ethan discovered the shocking truth about Aidan's disappearance. The ancient book had indeed possessed dangerous powers, but it was not Aidan who had vanished - it was Ethan himself. The forces unleashed by the ritual had transported Ethan to a parallel reality, where Aidan was waiting, alive and well.

Aidan explained that he had discovered the book's secret and had used its powers to create a new existence, away from the prying eyes of the world. Ethan's journey to find him was a test, designed to determine if he was worthy of joining Aidan in this alternate realm.

Returning from the Unknown

In a heart-wrenching decision, Ethan chose to return to his own reality. He couldn't abandon his family and friends, even if it meant leaving his beloved brother once again. With a heavy heart, he bid farewell to Aidan and began the perilous journey back through the labyrinth.

When Ethan emerged from the labyrinth, he found himself alone in the same room where the ritual had started. Everything was as he had left it, except Aidan was nowhere to be found. The ancient book lay open on a pedestal, as if waiting for its next victim.

The End of the Mystery and Continuation of the Legend

Since that day, Ethan has dedicated his life to studying the book, hoping to unlock its secrets and find a way to reunite with Aidan. The legend of the Morrison brothers' disappearance has become the stuff of local folklore, captivating the residents of Westwood for generations to come.

Will Ethan ever uncover the truth behind the book and discover a way to bring Aidan back? The answer remains a mystery, hidden within the pages of the ancient artifact, waiting for the next brave soul to embark on a perilous journey of their own.

New York Times bestselling author David Levithan takes young readers on twisting journey through truth, reality, and fantasy and belief.

Aidan disappeared for six days. Six agonizing days of searches and police and questions and constant vigils. Then, just as suddenly as he vanished, Aidan reappears. Where has he been? The story he tells is simply. . . impossible. But it's the story Aidan is sticking to.

His brother, Lucas, wants to believe him. But Lucas is aware of what other people, including their parents, are saying: that Aidan is making it all up to disguise the fact that he ran away.

When the kids in school hear Aidan's story, they taunt him. But still Aidan clings to his story. And as he becomes more of an outcast, Lucas becomes more and more concerned. Being on Aidan's side would mean believing in the impossible. But how can you believe in the impossible when everything and everybody is telling you not to?
