The Girl Who Overcame Her Fears

Once upon a time there was a girl named Olivia who had a little sister named Mary. They lived in a small cottage. They loved hanging out together and playing. Olivia was 10 years old and Mary was 6.

Their little cottage was in a village with a lot of kids and there was a big dark forest really close by. Her little sister loved reading and exploring new things, but Olivia didn't like reading or going to new places because she was scared that something could happen to her and her sister. Mary always said that ever thing you need you can find in books and stories.

When the kids from the village went to explore the dark forest , they always somehow get lost. That is why Olivia doesen't like going to other placesbecause she is scared. But her little sister, Mary, wanted to go to the dark forest because she thinks that it is not scary and she wanted to go find all the people who got lost.

Ever day, Mary tried to persuade Olivia to go to the dark forest, but Olivia refused. However, that day she agreed and they went to the forest. As soon as the got there, they started exploring all the dark places. After that, they played hide and seek and Mary was hiding from Olivia. Olivia started counting to 60. During that time, Mary was looking for a place to hide. She soon found a well-hidden place. It was a tiny little space behind a lot of trees and bushes. When the hiding time was up, Olivia started looking for Mary all over the place. Mary was wating for Olivia a long time has passed. She became worried, so she started searching for Olivia, but she couldn't find her. Eventually she went back to her hidding spot and saw a big castle. She thought that she had seen that castle somwhere before. She went closer to the castle and,as she got closer, she heard a lot of weird noises. After that she turned around and she saw a lot of trees, not like the ones she had previously seen in the forest. These trees were without any leaves. She came to a really big bush with some delicious-looking blueberries. She ate one and felt dizzy. All of the sudden she fainted. When she woke up she saw she was in a big room with a lot of other people she knew and a lot of weird creatures. She asked them what was happening and where she was. Her old friend told her that a might wizard captured all of them and put them in these weird rooms.

At the same time, Olivia was still looking around the forest, but she couldn't find her sister. Suddenly, she heard really weirdfootsteps. She didnt think they were her sister's, so she ran out of forest to her house. She didn'd know what to do and she remberd that her sister was telling her a story of the dark forest and the might wizard who captures all the people and animals. She also rememberd that her whenever she didn't know what to do, to find the answer in books. So, she quickly ran to her sister's room and went through all of the books about wizzards and forests. After reading the tird book, she overcame her fear of the forest and dicided she must go find her sister.

She went to the forest and saw the castle that was in the picture in the book. She hurried to the entrance. She came in and saw her little sisters and a lot of her old friends. She saw that the keys for all of the rooms werw in a clear box. She tried to open it, but it was to heavy. Thhen the mighty wizard came. She looked his eyes and told him to let the people go out. He asked her why he would do that. Olivia thought about it and said, ''You are doing a lot of bad things to the people and you should start being nicer and choose kindness over loneliness''. He broke in to tears and let everyone go.

He said that he will never do bad things again. The all went back to the village together and lived happily ever after.
