Revealing the Journal's Secret
I can't focus at the funeral and my mom feels that that is disrespectful so she wouldn't let me fidget with anything. I had no appetite even though I usually eat plates. My mom got so nervous she took my temperature. after the funeral I went to Dairy Queen and waited for about fifteen minutes. I started to doubt whether she would come or not but she is a woman of her word. With the leftover money from her hotel room, I bought us each a banana split. "What have you been up to," I asked her. "Oh nothing interesting, just what I like to call "National Treasure 3: TV Treasure." How about you," she asked. "Well I just came from my Uncle Edburt's funeral, but thats the most interesting thing thats happened all day." After that statement she turned ghost white, which attracted attention allowing someone to recognize her. I had to carry her to her limo because my car was at the funeral home and got caught up in a big police chase which she was asleep for most of. We won only because I shot down a helicopter down and its remains bocked the entrance to a tunnel. After the police chase we went to a different Dairy Queen. "I killed him and burnt his house down," she said on the verge of tears. "I know. He was my uncle and my best friend." I suddenly felt a lot of guilt and wished I could do the funeral over. "I'm sorry," she said."It's ok it happens to the best of us." That got her to let out a small laugh, and she didn't look as guilty. The first time she killed someone the police held me in protective custody and when they let me go they told my to be careful, that V was a hardened criminal , and wasn't the V I knew as a kid. They must have been talking about the wrong V. "Tell me about your treasure hunt, maybe I can help." "Well, our only clue is written only on the journal 3 they used for the Gravity Falls show." "Where is it?" "In the limo," V said proudly. "Lead the way," I responded. Once inside the limo she turn one of the pages that are blank in the copies of the book. "It looks like it requires some sort of cipher." I recognized the code. "It's coded with the Pig Pen Cipher, I can decrypt it." She looked at me dumbfounded,"Not even my best agents could figure that out." It only took me five minutes to completely decode it. I noticed it was completely opposite of the original version of the pig pen cipher. It read,"What you seek may be lost but it was not destroyed by the Romans torch. Your next clue is in the canyon of red and gold, far below her territories high sun." Vix is hunting for the Lost Library of Alexandria and she has to travel to the Grand Canyon. I relayed the news to V and she was equally hyped about me figuring out the clue as she was about going to the Grand Canyon. She sat in the driver seat, turned to me and asked,"Are you coming?" I smiled and said," As soon as we drop of the book with A." Her smile turned into a frown faster than I'll ever be able to type this sentence.
