Chapter One
When Anto, the God of Everything heard that his
minions went missing, he rushed over to Maths
City.
Info, the Infinity God of Numbers and Addie, the
triangular God of Shapes, ruled Maths City. The two
Gods had the power to control all numbers and
shapes in the city.
Anto had found them at a young age in an
orphanage when he heard about their rare powers
to control numbers, shapes, and shoot lasers and
shapes.
When he arrived at their neighbouring mansions in
the cloud floating above the city, he found all their
clothes were gone.
He turned red like a tomato.
He called his wife, Divina the Goddess of Division
on his Infinity-phone.
“The minions are missing!” exclaimed Anto.
“Oh my Infinity!” screamed Divina.
BANG BANG.

Divina’s phone disconnected.
“Hello?” said Anto “Are you there?”

Chapter Two
Info and Addie had run away to try and capture the
moon. It was a sphere that could give you powers
when you touch it.
Info and Addie didn’t like Anto and they wanted to
challenge him. They didn’t think Anto should be God
of Everything, so they would use the powers in a
maths challenge against him.
The moon could give them the powers of each
number to defeat Anto.
Between their existing powers, they gathered loads
of nets and took them apart. They remade a big net
of 1s and 0s in The Number 1 Shop.
“This net should surely get us to the moon,” said
Addie.
“We need a few more nets and we spent all our tax
money,” replied Info.
“Should we raise the taxes again? We need at least
10,000 euro to buy more old nets,” suggested Addie.
“Let’s hope we get a discount after all the nets we
bought.”

Info and Addie had bought all their netting from
The Net Shop that was shaped like the number 4.
Later that day, they raised the taxes.
Meanwhile, Anto was driving home in his Pickle
Machine. He was on his way home to check on Divina,
after a quick stop to pick up some pickles.
“Breaking news on Jimmy’s News, taxes have
gone up and everyone is going mental,” Jimmy, the
radio host, said.
Anto was so angry that he broke the radio with his
fist when he put it through the radio. He instantly
regretted it because he could not hear the rest of the
news story.
“Noooooo!” he cried. He became angry once
again and headbutted what was left of the radio.
Back at the Number 1 Shop, they collected all their
new money, their nets and their net gun before they
flew to the moon.
When they arrived, they shoved the net into the
gun shaped like a 7. It was so huge that it made the
gods look small.
“3, 2-”
13
BOOM!
The net gun exploded and misfired. It wrapped
Info and Addie into a nice tangly net.
Luckily, the net was so big they were able to escape
right through one of the 0s.
They tried again. It took them 10 hours to regather
the net, fix the gun, and shove it back in the gun.
“3, 2, 1…”
PASHOOOOOOOOM!
FLUMP.
They captured the moon.
Back in Maths City, Anto finally made it home to
find Divina listening to the news story on the radio.
Anto continued to listen and grew worried about
what his minions raising taxes could mean.
“Would you be able to help me to destroy the minions?”
asked Anto.
At first, Divina didn’t want to help but the more she
thought about it, the more she liked the idea.
14
Info and Addie managed to bring the moon back to
their mansion in the clouds.
They each touched the moon three times and received
powers each.
They were now able to swap their powers with
each other, have the power of algebra, stop and
start time, reform through measurements, be the
only living thing to understand e=mc(squared), and
more!

Chapter Three
Anto says hello to Divina. They are eating pizza that
is shaped like a triangle. Anto hears a sound and
drops his pizza.
“Someone just broke through the window!”
Screamed Divina.
“Lower the taxes!” Exclaimed the minions of maths
city, who then marched into the sitting room where
Anto and Divina were eating their pizza.
“Wait, wait, stop.” Said Anto.
Divina passed out.
“If you help me to defeat Info and Addie, I will lower
the taxes.”
Info and Addie saw on their circle telly that all the
minions of maths city were protesting in Anto and
Divina’s house. They laughed.
Meanwhile in Anto and Divina’s house, the minions
were organising themselves to become more powerful.
Seven and seven joined together to become
fourteen. The shapes were also working together to
create a big ball as part of a slingshot. They made
the slingshot out of bed sheets and wood.

The minions switched off Info and Addie’s electricity.
Info and Addie screamed.
“Oh no not the TV! I was watching the final of the
football.”
They had switched from the news to the football
because they were such big plus fans. Info turns to
Addie.
“We have to get serious now.”
“Okay.” Addie said.
Info goes out to check the electricity box and he
meets Anto and Divina on the way. Anto and Divina
ask if Info wants to join them.
Info says yeah, but he has his fingers crossed behind
his back. He will use this opportunity to get
information to help Addie. They shake hands. Divina
turns to Info and asks if she can talk to him alone.
“I want a divorce.” Divina said.
“Why?” said Anto.
“Because you’re boring. And you have no money.”
Divina runs away. The minions run away with her
because she has money.
19
“Well I don’t have the minions, but at least I’m free
from her.”
Addie comes out of the house and is a little bit
shocked to see Info and Anto so friendly with one
another. Info gives her the side eye, so she knows
he’s still on her side.
“I challenge you to the maths’ challenge. Me and
Info against you.”
Addie asks Anto the first maths question.
“What is one plus one?”
“Eleven.” Anto screams confidently.
A big bish was heard, followed by a bong. The
moon had fallen apart, and suddenly it was night.
Anto turns into ashes. Meanwhile, Divina returns
with the divorce papers.
“What has happened? I need his signature!”
Info and Addie turn into the main gods. They rule
maths city in a more fair way. They lowered taxes
and apologised to the minions. Divina marries Info
and they live happily ever after.
Little did they know, Anto’s ashes were merging
together to form life…
