Anna and Ben were best friends. They liked to play in the park, draw pictures and read books. One day, they found a big letter on the ground. It was red and shiny and had a star on it.
"Wow, what an amazing letter!" Anna said. "I wonder what it says."
"Let's open it and see," Ben said. He tore the letter and looked inside. There was a piece of paper with some words on it.
"What does it say?" Anna asked.
Ben tried to read the words, but they were too hard. He only knew some of them. He read: "This is a magic letter. If you say the word 'disappear', you will go to a wonderful place. But be careful, you can only come back if you say the word 'appear'."
"Wow, that sounds fun!" Anna said. "Let's try it. Maybe we will go to a place with candy and toys and animals."
"OK, but we have to remember the word 'appear'," Ben said. "Or we will be stuck there forever."
They held hands and said together: "Disappear!"
Suddenly, everything went dark. They felt a strange wind and heard a loud noise. They opened their eyes and saw a new place. It was not wonderful at all. It was scary and ugly and cold. There were no candy and toys and animals. There were only rocks and thorns and monsters.
"Help!" Anna cried. "This is a bad place. I want to go home."
"Me too," Ben said. "Let's say the word 'appear' and go back."
They held hands and said together: "Appear!"
But nothing happened. They said it again and again, but nothing changed. They were still in the bad place. They looked at the piece of paper, but it was gone. They had lost it when they tore the letter.
They realized they had made a big mistake. They had opened a bad letter that lied to them. They had said a bad word that trapped them. They had forgotten a good word that could save them.
They started to cry. They wished they had never found the letter. They wished they had never said 'disappear'. They wished they could see their home and their parents and their friends again.
But they couldn't. They were stuck in the bad place forever. The end.
