Once upon a time in a far away land called Fantasy Kingdom, there lived a princess named Jenny and her parents, King Bob and Queen Sandy. Jenny had a fairy friend named Perrie and they did everything together. One day, Jenny was sitting on her bed when a shadowy figure flew through the open window and grabbed her and took her to an abandoned subway hideout. Jenny’s mother went to Jenny’s bedroom to tell her goodnight and saw that she was missing!

She immediately sent the guards out to look for her. Five hours later, they came back, but with no Jenny! Queen Sandy and King Bob’s only hope was to call Detective Trevor and his mighty sidekick, Eeyore. The phone rang in Trevor’s office. He picked it up and answered. “Hello, Detective Trevor here, how can I help you?” “It’s me, Queen Sandy. My daughter has gone missing! Come to Fantasy Castle quick! We need as much help as we can get!”

“Ok ma’am, I’ll be on my way.” Trevor got into his detective car with Eeyore and went to the castle at lighting fast speed. He arrived and pulled up to the gate.

“State your business please,” The guard said.

“The queen called me here,” Trevor said and drove inside. After parking his vehicle, he and his dog went inside. After talking to the King and Queen he set out to find the princess.

He left his car at the castle and walked to the Magic Fairy Forest to see an old friend.

“Hello Perrie, How are you?”

“Hi Trevor, how are you?” The little fairy squeaked.

“Good! I need your help. The princess is missing!”

“What? How did she go missing?!” the fairy squeaked in a high pitched scream. After she finished having a nervous breakdown, she agreed to help on the mission. After a few minutes they found an abandoned subway.

“Help!” a voice from inside cried. “JENNY!! ARE YOU OK?!” Trevor yelled. No sound came from within the dark subway. They hurried inside, finding a masked criminal holding Jenny against a wall with a knife, ready to kill her. “Give me your cash!" the criminal cackled.

“Never, you criminal!” said a frightened Jenny.

“Put the knife down or I will taze you!” Trevor exclaimed and got his taser out.

“Never!”  

“Ok, you asked for it,” Trevor tazed the masked criminal and pulled the mask off. “Y-You’re a girl?!” Trevor stammered, confused.

“Duh, did you think I was, a man? My name is Zoey!”

It  was love at first sight for Trevor and Zoey. Trevor saved Jenny, then, got down on one knee, to Zoey! “Will you marry me Zoey?” Trevor pleaded. Jenny and Zoey gasped!

“Yes, Trevor! A thousand times, yes!” gushed Zoey.

“But I thought you were going to ask me?” said Jenny through tears.

“I’m sorry Jenny, but I never really liked you” whispered Trevor.  

One week later...

“Hurry the the wedding starts in five!” A choir sang, “Here comes the bride all dressed in white.” She looks so beautiful Trevor thought.

“We have gathered here for the wedding of Trevor Holton and Zoey Martins.” Before we start, are there any objections?”

“We do,” said Jenny, Perrie, and Eeyore in unison. Eeyore darted right at the cake table and the cake fell off the table onto the bride and groom!

“No! You ruined my dress you worthless mutt!” Zoey shrieked. Zoey grabbed her high heels and chased the dog around what used to be the cake table. Perrie tripped Trevor. While Zoey stood on the red carpet, Jenny pulled the carpet and made Zoey fall.

All of a sudden, Mark, one of Trevor’s best men, came up to Jenny and got down on one knee. He said, “Will you marry me?” Jenny looked shocked! She accepted his proposal and apologized to Trevor and Zoey. The two couples had a double wedding and they lived happily ever after!              

Mystery at LesterLand

By: Ben Stallard, Bella Clendenon, Emma Lester, Jaci Peterson

Once upon a time, there was a man named Ben Lester. He had a younger sister named Becky Dallas. When they were small, Ben and Becky had dreamed of owning a theme park, but their love for animals had prevented them from being able to save enough money to build one. Over the years they had collected a variety of animals such as exotic birds, reptiles, tigers, zebras, and horses, but their favorite was a dog named Fender. It became very expensive to take care of all the animals and Ben and Becky were nearly bankrupt. Becky had gotten a job as a detective, but there still wasn’t enough money to keep all of the animals.

Just when they thought they would have to give up their animals, their luck changed. Ben bought a lottery ticket at a carnival and won two million bucks! He became rich and used his money to build a theme park called Lesterland.

Lesterland was a huge success! Everyone thought it was very clean and a nice place, until one night Ben and his theme park workers found a dead body on the ferris wheel ride!  Ben quickly called Becky.

“Becky, you have to get here quick and solve this mystery!”

Within a few hours, Specialist Kaci Peterson arrived on the scene to the Lesterland Park.

“Thank you for coming on such short notice,” said Ben. “Becky was right to call you.” Specialist Kaci introduced her companion. “Ben and Becky, I would like to you meet Ellie. She is a very intelligent and friendly alien visitor from Mars.”

“JINKIES!”  squealed Ben.  He was scared. Ellie looked like any other human and was actually a very attractive brunette.

Ellie greeted them by saying, “I love being here on Earth and I like humans. Show me the alien you found.” Becky immediately liked Ellie and took her to the site.

Ellie reported, “This dead alien is a very bad alien from another planet! I have met him before. He has an evil twin brother that always travels with him! He must be close by! We have to find him!”

“Fender is good at sniffing out anything! He will help you,” said Becky.

Ellie and Fender found the hiding alien in the bathroom stall.

Ellie took out her special alien blaster and zapped the alien. The evil alien was disintegrated.

“Ellie, thank you for helping us!” cheered Ben. Ben threw a big party at LesterLand and everyone was invited.

Specialist Kaci had a great idea! “Becky,  you are such an excellent investigator would you come to NASA and work in our department?”

Becky was thrilled. “That would be a dream job!” she exclaimed.

Ellie loved the theme park so much that she decided to go home to her planet and build a Lesterland of her own. Ben offered to visit her planet and help. Two years later, with the help of Ben, Ellie built Lester Land. It was a huge success. Becky became so fascinated with aliens that she left her job as a dective and became an astronaut. She went to work for NASA with her new best friend, Kaci.

One hot day in the Atlantic Ocean, four friends named Crafter, BothTap, Kayleigh, and Ethan were on a boat ride.

”This is so much fun!’’ laughed Kayleigh.

“Yeah!” yelled Ethan.

“Wait Guys! You might want to come check this out!” exclaimed BothTap. They all looked down into the clear ocean water to see a monument.

“We need to check this out,’’ exclaimed Crafter.

They gathered all their food, swords, and potions and jumped in. They dove to the bottom, swam into the monument, and shut the door.

Well, here we are,’’ said BothTap. They decided to explore for a while. When they got ready to leave, the door wouldn’t budge!

“How do we get out of here?” asked Ethan. The group suddenly heard a faint noise in the water behind them. They turned around and saw a giant Elder Guardian! They all drew their weapons.

The giant Elder Guardian said, “If you win I will show you where the gold and silver are and show you how to get out of here, but if I win you have to stay with me forever!’’

Then, the battle began! It was terrible! There were swords flying everywhere!

The Elder Guardian fatally wounded Kayleigh, but the group still won and the Elder Guardian kept his word, He showed them where the treasure was. He led them down the dark secret tunnel for what felt like miles! Finally, they saw light and escaped safely back to the boat with their loot.

The Battle of Jodinheim

By: Kami Pennington, Gabby Clem, Luke Lane, and Payton Welch

A long time ago, there was a village called Atlantis. Atlantis had lots of beautiful green grass, sparkling rivers, rolling hills, well-kept houses, and a castle. The castle was beautiful with gold steps and the walls were white quartz with rose-gold floors.  A group of friends lived together in the castle. Their names were Olivia, Lucas, Raven, and Liam.

Olivia was a beautiful princess with blonde hair streaked with red and blue that was usually in pigtails. Lucas had super powers and dated Olivia. Raven was strong and courageous with long brown hair. Liam was a superhero with special abilities to control animals. Ava was the evil twin sister of Olivia. She resented Olivia because Olivia was older by one minute, which meant she was the first heir to the throne.
