Chapter 1 CHAPTER 1
The problem with living inside the belly of a magical whale for eighty-eight days is the boredom. My best friend, Germ, and I are making the best of it by playing War.

You got all the aces, Germ says. She is lounging on a La-Z-Boy, eating Doritos. You always get aces.

Youre exaggerating, I say. But shes right, I do get all the aces.

I look at my hand, the wrinkled cards weve played a thousand times since boarding. My pile is huge and Germs is dwindling. This happens all the time, and yet... and yet... somehow, even though its purely a game of chance, Germ always wins. Im so close to victory, I can taste it, but Im pretty sure it will slip away.

I know this is not typically what anyone would expect to find in here, two twelve-year-old girls playing cards and stuffing their faces. To look around, you wouldnt even know were inside an ageless, time-traveling creature at all. If anything, it looks like Germs grammies house, which I visited once when we were little.

Off to the right is our bedroom, with an orange rug and two beds where we sleep. Here in the center theres a TV and two beat-up La-Z-Boys, with bowls full of our favorite snacks on a table in between. Theres also a dining table and a shag rug, and a treadmill and mini trampoline for Germ, who can never sit still for long.

Still, there are some indicators that were not in Kansas anymore. For one thing, theres a giant glass moonroof above that affords us a view of the blue ocean water above. There are travel brochures littering the room that offer guidance on trips to the Stone Age, the Bronze Age, specific eras like the Han dynasty, the Gupta empire, and so on. Theres also a full-color coffee-table book called Welcome to the Sea of Always that includes a primer on the magical creatures of the ocean of time, and a terrifying whos who profile on someone called the pirate king and his army of bones. Plus a rundown on the rules of time travel, which includes things like:

No crossing paths with your former or future self unless you want to create a troublesome wormhole.

People of the past cant see you unless they have the sight.

No returning to your starting place until your journey is at an end.
