BEGIN WRITING HERE:


Once upon a time there lived a lovely, beautiful girl named Olivia.  She had wavy black hair and light blue eyes.  Olivia lived near a forest.  No one goes in the forest, but not until now.  Olivia was told not to go in the forest.  Olivia was very curious about what lives beyond those trees.


The next day, Olivia told her parents that she was going out with some friends,  Lousie and Bob said no.  They had to go to a family reunion.  That happens once a month.

“Really Mum, I can’t go out with my friends?”

“I’m sorry darling, our family reunion is very important, we must attend each one”

“You can go with your friends tomorrow”

“Thanks Dad, I mean, there is free food right?”

“Haha, yes there is” Said Mum

 That night, Olivia texted Stacy and Mya to come over tomorrow for an “Adventure”.  Stacy and Mya are Olivia’s Best Friends.  Olivia is the oldest of the group, and Mya is the youngest.  Stacey has short brown hair, with green eyes, and Mya has long black hair, with light brown eyes.

The next morning, Mya and Stacy came over to Olivia’s house.  Olivia had big backpack. Olivia had packed a lot of food and water.  Since they were gonna be out for the day, they needed to be prepared for their adventure!.


“Where are we going?” Mya said

“We’re just going to the forest”

Stacey screamed,  “What do you mean the forest! That’s the forbidden forest!!”

“It’s ok. We’ll be fine.”


A few minutes later, the three girls have finally made it to their destination.  Olivia was the first to go in.  Stacey followed Mya.

“This is so beautiful I don’t know why we’re not allowed in here.”

“I think i'm gonna go”.  Stacey ran out of the forest.

“Why did she leave?” asked Mya.

Olivia yelled, “Stacey where are you going! We just got here”.

No reply.

“Come on Mya We’ll be fine”.

“Stacey is such a scaredy cat, she doesn't usually act  like this.  I thought she was the “fearless” one in the group”.

“You gotta go easy on her Olivia, maybe she’s not that interested.”

“Your righ……….”

Something interrupted Olivia.  It sounded like a small, high pitched voice.

“Mya did you hear that?”

“Yea…..”

“Let’s turn back…..”


ROARRR!  Stacey came running out of the bush!.

“You scared the crap out of me! I thought you went back home!”

“Olivia, you really think I was that scared of the forest? Hahaha”


“I'm getting tired, should we head back it’s getting dark…..”
“Yea we should”.

“What do you mean getting dark? It’s just 12:00 AM?  Mya, Olivia, do you really want to head back home?”. 

“Not really? Mya? How about you?”

“Let’s just stay for a while.”


The longer the girls went, the deeper they got in the forest.  *Crunch*.  

Olivia was shocked “What the heck is that?!”

“Eww yuck!”

“Stacey do something”

“Me? What do you want me to do?!”

“Grab a tissue from out of my bag!!”

Stacey takes the tissues and gives it to Olivia.

“What is that? It looks like slimey poop”

“Stacey do you think your father can take samples of this weird thing?”

“Sure, I’ll give it to him, give me the tissue I’ll put it into this tiny container.”

“I wonder what kind of creature lives in these forest”

“Hmmm Let’s find out!”
