As a symbol of this, they let Jennifer perform the rat torture on Amanda, who passes out. They congratulate her, promote her, and demote Amanda.

Peter is inside the bag, still alive, so Jennifer takes him to the Aristocrats. Jennifer is forced to kill him, and the Imps drag his body away. Jennifer and Brown find a bloody bag being beaten by Imps, who alert Mr. The next gift is Wendy's missing pet rabbit, Peter. There, Amanda apologizes for doing the torture. When she awakens, she finds a letter from Amanda, telling her to go to the airship's roof. The Aristocrats still get angry, calling the butterfly worthless, and Amanda shoves a rat in her face, causing her to pass out. The two of them eventually find a butterfly, but the Aristocrats call it ugly, so they go and find another one. She eventually meets a dog named Brown, whom she bonds with. She meets several people, who are all mean to her, except a girl named Wendy. She discovers that the first gift is a butterfly. She awakens tied to a pole in an airship, and the boy (who she cannot see) tells her that she must find a gift for the Red Crayon Aristocrat Club every month, before cutting her free. When Jennifer gets to the grave, it is empty, but some more girls push her in the coffin and carry her away. The boy advises Jennifer to go, as it is the funeral of one of her friends. Suddenly, there is an announcement that a funeral is about to begin.

Jennifer finds a side gate, and goes to the attic, where the boy asks her to read to him again. The boy runs to an orphanage, where Jennifer sees two girls attacking something in a bag, and the boy entering the building. The bus stops and the little boy runs away, so Jennifer runs after him. He wakes her up and asks her to read to him, but Jennifer is surprised to find that the pages are blank.

The story begins with Jennifer on a bus, asleep, with a little boy reading a storybook being the only other person on the bus.
