Wishful Thinking - Amerigo Pinelli
You tried to get away, but you couldn’t help returning to this odd little town. Every time you wandered, you stumbled onto its streets. It sits along the highway, and off the beaten path. It’s in the depths of a forest, and in the middle of a desert. It’s surrounded by mountains, and balanced on the edge of a deadly cliff. It’s the place where weird things happen, where the unreal becomes real.
Welcome back to RAVENS PASS. It’s been waiting for you.
A full moon shines behind ravens perched on a twisted tree. Mountains are in the background. Fog fills the scene.CHAPTER 1
THE BOOK
We’ve been at the library all afternoon,
said Zoe. My parents are going to start wondering where I am. Plus, I was supposed to help Carter with his homework. Any other ideas?

I’ve already suggested the Pyramids of Giza,
said Jalen. Why don’t we just go with that?
Because three other groups are doing the Pyramids,
said Mia. You know Ms. Hassing hates when the groups do the same topics. But we do need to hurry up—I’ve got volleyball practice in twenty minutes.
I’ve got some new videos I want to upload tonight too,
said Jalen. There’s a great one of me making a half-court shot with my back to the hoop—it’s incredible! What are you up to tonight, Elsie?
"I’ll probably give Last Bot Standing another try, said Elsie.
I’m not very good at that game, though. I’ve barely unlocked anything. If I won every now and then, maybe people would actually watch me when I stream."
Yeah, when you’re an awesome content creator like me, you have to give the people some great material,
said Jalen with a smirk.
Elsie scoffed. "You have seven followers—and
