The Recess I'll Never Forget

It was SO nice out that day. I was sitting on a bench and enjoying the sunshine. The only problem was, I was still at school and it was recess! The teacher called everyone back inside. When I got up, I saw something sparkling on the ground nearby. I’ll never forget what happened when I picked it up…....

When i picked it up, i was magically pulled into the sparkly object and i was in a magically world, with fairies, talking animals, and Princess... and my wish came ture it was know loger recess i was on a beach i turned into a 15 year old! Where was I? I had no idea but I wanted to find out. I asked a fariy near by she didn't answer,it was like she did not understand me like was speaking a diffrent language. then the fairy turned around and then i saw it the fairy was evil!! then i figured that i better have left this place. so i reached into my pocket to get out the sparkley object out and thank god that it was still there.but when i got home i was still 15!! i figured that i would turn my reguler age soon .then i did! the end I loved being a princess but one day I Was beiting by a wear wolf amd now I live as being a wear wolf. PS I need a cure. When I picked it up, I felt as though my limbs were made of jelly. I plummeted to the ground, like gravity had just tripled on only me. No one seemed to notice. I don't know how long I was on the ground, but when I got up, it seemed as though no one was around. Great, just GREAT! I thought to myself. Now what? Then I realized I wasn't on the playground anymore. The trees were all dead, and it looked like the sky was on the ground and the ground was on the sky! I had to hop from cloud to cloud to get around. So I went and saw the Princess and asked her when I did she started speaking british.Later I found out I was in Jeniva a magical place in my favorite book.The next day I found the sparkly object and then I found myself asleep. "The sparkly thing," I said. once apon a time there was a girl named diamond she wanted to have a sleep over but her mom said no "Okay.."I thought. The sparkly thing; I had seen before. "Yes! My mom's necklace!" Suddenly the kids on the playground dissapered, and then came back as evil creatures from another world. I'm not trying to scare you, but it's true. Then, this sword-like thing just appeared in my hand like magic.
