One day there was a little girl named Kira who lived with her grandmother in a small cottage. The cottage was in a town called Mysterious Town.

On a dark, rainy night Kira's grandmother sat in her rocking chair and ran her fingers through Kira's long blond hair that gleamed in the moonlight. Kira's eyes were brown, and wide, and her mouth was drooling with eagerness. Her grandmother told her a story about a secret mansion that was way back in the woods and if you find it you keep it.

A few people tried to go there but nobody ever came back alive. Kira was anxious to find that secret mansion. Kira wanted to live in a nice big mansion and live happily ever after. She put on her heaviest clothing and brought water, a knife, and some food. Kira kissed her grandmother good-bye and reluctantly went into the woods.

About four miles into the forest she had a brick wall standing firm in front of her. Next to the wall was a man with thick brown hair and brown eyes. The man told Kira she had to cut the wall down using a plastic hammer. Fortunately, she did it by kicking the blocks to knock them over, and went on to another challenge.

The next challenge was to try and kill a giant tarantula. She had to do it by chopping him in all of his legs with a knife. Kira would have forty minutes to do this. It took Kira thirty minutes to chop the legs because his legs got tangled.

Now, Kira is going onto her last challenge. She had to fight a big, green dragon. Kira almost died because the dragon breathed fire at her during this challenge, but she was striving so hard to win this battle and she did. The secret mansion was hers forever.

She brought her grandmother over and they lived happily as queen and princess.

Soon Kira's grandmother got sick and died. Kira was now the queen. At the graveyard Kira met a boy and she fell in love with him.

In a few months they got married and they lived happily ever after as queen and king in the secret mansion.

THE END.
