Nowhere Boys: The Book of Shadows Page #4

but we need to talk.

Oh, that's pretty. Can I look?

Don't touch that.

Manners.

What's in the bag?

I'm looking for a big, old,

dusty magic book.

- You seen it?

- No.

I hate liars.

Restoring demon. Take cover!

What took you so long?

So predictable.

Your tricks never change.

Andy, where have you been?

- Guys, we have a problem!

- You think?

That's who I'm looking for.

Ellen, what do we do?

Since when did I become the bug expert?

Entomologist.

I've learned something new. Wanna see?

Stop! This is not your world to

control.

Oh, no? I'm just starting.

Don't think I've forgotten

what you did to me.

Or forgiven.

Ow!

- No, no! Someone will see.

- In this mess?

Are we gonna blitz this thing or not?

So annoying, aren't they?

Stay back.

What do you want?

What are you gonna do, wash me?

Cute friendship band.

Friends in high places?

You think you can play with me?

Try. I like games.

And I like to win.

Andy!

Worst time to have a shower, dude.

- That girl.

- Tegan. She's trouble.

- No, Felix, she's worse than that.

- What do you mean?

Alice. Phoebe.

Are they alright? What happened?

Are you OK?

Andy. What are you doing here?

We need your help.

In my world, that girl.

It's total chaos.

Andy, I can't leave here.

Really? That's a shame.

Remember this?

Of course. Our friendship band.

You trust your friends, don't you?

That must be nice.

I had someone I could trust once.

Andy...

The band...

Isn't from Negative Space.

So you can't control it. Tricky, huh?

Why?

You thought you could just forget me?

Forget who we are?

What are you doing?

I have to keep the multiverse in order.

- Without it, there'll be...

- Total chaos? Hmph.

You abandoned me for this world.

Now you're going to

watch me tear it apart.

Order will not be restored.

Not this time.

She's stronger than anyone

we've encountered.

She controls all the elements

and the restoring demon.

And she's coming for us.

So what do we do, then?

Some spell to banish her?

That symbol.

My vision.

When I touched the book, I saw this.

This was at the ley lines.

Burnt into the ground.

- Where we opened the book...

- And split the talisman.

Then Tegan turns up.

- What if...

- We brought her here?

They're doing that finishing

each other's sentence thing again.

- Mm.

- But who is she?

I've read about this.

Chaos Sigil.

'Against order is the force of chaos.

The two exist in a balance.

If chaos separates from order,

the spiral of destruction

leads irreversibly...'

What, are you gonna say something

cheerful like 'the end of the world'?

Not just this one.

Every world in the multiverse.

She wants this book.

There must be something in here

she's afraid of.

We need to find it.

And now that all four of us

can do magic, watch out chaos.

Whoops.

Jake? Where are you going?

My piece of the talisman's at home.

And if this is my last night on Earth,

I kinda wanna see Mum.

OK. Let's meet at my place later.

Happy birthday, Tegan!

Again!

Tegan, that's the third time.

I have a lot to make up for.

- You're the best, Tegan.

- We'll be friends forever.

What's with you guys? Snap out of it.

Again! Wrap.

Tonight we play and stay up all night,

because tomorrow. ..

Chaos rules.

Oh, I thought I heard you.

So sorry about your game, Jake.

Hmm?

Not the end of the world.

What if it is?

Oh, Jakey, battles in life

make us strong, you know.

You get knocked down, you've just

gotta get back up again and fight.

Even when you've got no chance?

Especially then.

Ah, the epic Bates Bourguignon is

ready.

Hey, um... I like seeing you smile.

I'm happy for you, Mum.

Thanks, Jakey. Means the world to me.

Don't worry, I'll keep fighting.

I've gotta go, Mum. I'll explain later.

- OK.

- I hope.

- Hey!

- Dudes!

Ha! Finally!

Where have you been?

I've been looking for you.

Getting takeaway. What's happening?

What's the story?

No story. Nothing. I'm great. I'm fine.

Just, um...

You guys know that you're pretty much

the best brothers in the world, right?

I, uh...

I love you guys.

Whoa. Alright.

Yeah, definitely something wrong.

Take his temperature.

Got something for you too, man.

Yeah, yeah. Burger.

Oh.

Tuck in, man.

I'll, um... see you guys later.

- What?

- Hey, get in. It's raining.

- Jump in! We'll drive you home.

- It's OK. I'll see you there, though.

Are you crazy?

What are you doing?

I had to see you.

- You did?

- Yeah.

I really did.

Andy, what's wrong? Are you OK?

Things are out of control in my world.

Like, seriously.

Andy, if anyone can handle

out-of-control craziness, it's you.

You think?

I know.

Ellen, I shouldn't have come back.

I was too caught up

wanting to be near you.

Will I ever see you again?

My whole life up until this point

has been unpredictable.

So I'll never say never.

Then neither will I.

Tonnes of cool spells,

but nothing with the chaos symbol.

Peep with security into futurity

Sum up your history...

- Dad! What?

- Come on, boys. You're not dressed.

Tonight a star is born.

My Bremin Musical Theatre debut.

- Tonight?

- Don't tell me you forgot.

- We have an assignment due, Mum.

- No, boys, it can wait.

It's a matter of life or death.

Literally.

Yeah. Look, um...

It's OK. Don't worry about it, darl.

You can't shove Gilbert and Sullivan

down an unwilling throat.

I'm very disappointed in you.

Both of you.

Sorry, Mum.

- One thing we can thank Tegan for.

- Mr and Mrs Ferne.

Have you got an assignment due too,

Andy?

Any luck so far?

No, nothing.

This power is so frustrating.

Speak to me.

Maybe it already has.

In your first vision, Oscar,

what exactly did you see?

The owner of the lair,

the chaos symbol,

a little boy and girl connected.

I remember something.

Like this?

Spell of Revelation.

'Reveal the secrets

to banish shadows to light.'

Sounds promising.

It's the best clue we have.

It's the only clue we have.

We've fought demons.

We've crossed dimensions.

So of course we thought

we could save the world.

But we didn't realise

that this was the end, for all of us.

This is so early I don't think

it officially counts as morning.

Together again. Just remember...

No. No inspirational speeches.

We've seen and done more than most

guys our age could ever dream of.

But great powers aren't just a gift,

they're a responsibility.

Did you just quote Spider-Man?

It's Voltaire.

If Tegan is as dangerous as we think,

then... well, this is our town,

our home -

let's save it.

So inspiring.

Don't you all look so tough

and ready for action?

- You don't belong here, Tegan.

- Felix, where's your hospitality?

Order to chaos and chaos to order

The circle of life

The endless border

Reveal the secrets

To banish shadows to light

Open the door

To cast out the endless night.

This is getting so familiar.

Nice poem. Very pretty.

A round of applause.

- Tegan, you'll hurt him!

- Obviously.

Don't be a spoilsport, Ellen.

He deserves it for what he did to you.
