Forever Friends
Part 5: Desperate Measures
Lucifer notices that one of the lenses on the camera he let Rory borrow is broken.
Lucifer asks Rory about the broken lens. She replies that Pixel told her it’s because she’s getting older. She continues to tell him that Pixel knew about the camera all the time and it’s what allows him to talk to her.
Lucifer thinks Rory is taking this make believe that the stuffed bear can talk to her too far. He decides to show her Asmodeus. The distraction seems to work. For now.
That evening, Pixel tells Rory that the lens can magically be replaced.
While Lucifer is sound asleep, Rory sneaks onto his computer and finds a chatroom for kids that have been talking about stuffed animals. Others seemed to have shared the same experiences she has had with Pixel. She finds out that there’s a place in Glimmerbrook that has books about magic, including magical lenses for cameras.
Rory goes back to Pixel and lets him know there are others out there just like them who share the same memories and about Glimmerbrook. Pixel says they should go on an adventure together.
The next day, Rory takes Pixel to Glimmerbrook and they discover a magical portal.
As they travel through the portal, Rory and Pixel arrive in front of a massive building. There are others going in and out.
Walking in, dragging Pixel along, Rory finds a bookcase. There are many books. Sifting through the titles, she sees a book about magical objects. Within the book she finds a chapter about cameras and magical lenses.
