 At that very moment he looked up and saw Wizder the Observer at the window   3

 trying to say something, but there was too much commotion in class for him to be
 heard, no one even noticed him there… Wizder signaled Jonathan to come over
 and then whispered in his ear,

 "This is your chance to start the journey with me to the Soul Creatures' Land."

 Jonathan wiped the tears from his face. He was curious. He looked at Wizder
 again from behind his teary eyes and asked,

 "How?? What kind of journey would this be anyway, with the class in such

 mayhem?"

 Wizder said,

 "Take a good look, this is exactly what happens when the imps take over. Your
 friends have completely forgotten their magical powers. But you can examine
 everything from where you're standing and see which imp has taken over."

 Jonathan remembered the gifts Wizder had given
 him. He rushed over to his back pack and took

 out the magical binoculars.

 When he looked through them, he saw a sight
 that was frightening at first but then turned pretty
 hilarious; his classmates had very strange imps
 sitting on their shoulders, each with many hands

 doing mischievous things, lots of eyes looking
 everywhere, and quite a few mouths that wanted
 to eat everything they could grab (especially if it
 was sweet).




 The "I Want It Now" Imp represents the inability to delay
 gratification and inability to restrain oneself, which lead
 to the desire to obtain things or attention without delay.
