Chapter 4

4 Violet, Pablo, Skylar, and Devin couldn't believe their eyes. Floating in the middle of the room was a giant brain! It rotated slowly. Violet's mouth fell open as she moved closer. "I'd like you all to meet Bob the Brain!" said Dr. Crisp.

"He's so beautiful!" said Skylar. "He looks like he should be in a museum." "Maybe a science museum." Violet laughed. Suddenly, a rumble echoed through the room. BIZZAP! The rumbling stopped, and a hologram of the twins appeared. Skylar was painting a picture of her brother. Devin was standing in front of her, spinning a basketball on his finger. "Whoa!" said Devin, covering his mouth. "How can we be here…?"

"And there!" said Skylar. Pablo smiled. "They're just clones." "Yeah, the Maker Maze can make a copy of anything!" added Violet. BIZZAP! A hologram of Violet appeared. She was standing at a lab table, holding two test tubes. One had a blue powder, and the other held a yellow liquid. "Cool!" said Violet. "I look like a real scientist!" "You are a real scientist!" Dr. Crisp smiled. BIZZAP! Then a hologram of Pablo popped into view. He was aboard a spaceship, sleeping in a bag attached to the wall. "I read about those! Astronauts have to sleep in bags like that so they don't float around and bump into things," Pablo explained. "Okay, Makers! It's time to make a match! Maker Maze, activate the brain matching game!"

she shouted into her watch. BOOM! SNAP! WHIZ! ZAP A cloud of green smoke burst in the air. CRASH! When all the smoke cleared, the Makers saw Bob's cerebrum, cerebellum, and brain stem scattered on the floor. "As you can see," began Dr. Crisp, "the holograms are all doing something different." The Makers nodded in agreement. "In each case, a different part of the brain is working extra hard to help them. In this level, you'll have to match the correct part of the brain with the correct hologram," said Dr. Crisp.

"It doesn't look like Pablo's brain is working too hard," said Violet as she nudged her best friend. "Hey! Space sleep is hard work!" Pablo laughed. "And sleep is very important for your brain," said Dr. Crisp, tapping her head. Dr. Crisp cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled, "Ready, set, MATCH!"
