I am a very curious child, so I pressed the button that said "On" without even thinking. Suddenly, I heard a sucking sound, and I felt my whole body being pulled into a strange, blue machine. It turns out it was a teleporting machine. 

It took me to a green forest, and I thought: Why am I here? Why is a blue-haired pixie in front of me? And, why is a green-skinned goblin in front of me? The pixie said, " I'm Crystal." The goblin said, "I'm Bill. " I said, "I'm Catherine, nice to meet you."

Suddenly, it occurred to me that the teleporting machine wasn't there. It was then and there that I started worrying about how I would get back. What if I don't I ever see my exotic home again? We were only on a trip to my uncle's odd house. I said, "I'm lost!" Crystal and Bill said, "it's alright we will help you find your way home. Where do you live, anyway?" I said, "Not around here that's for sure." Crystal said, "Are you sure? You look like the people across the road from me." "I'm not," I assured her. "Come on let's go for a walk to see if we can find your house on the way to mine," said Crystal.

We were still walking. We had been walking for over an hour, maybe, more. "My legs are aching," I moaned. "Ours are too," said Crystal, "But we are used to it." "Why are you used to it?" I asked, worriedly. "Because we are always running, and walking around due to the dreaded Swarp," said Bill. "What's the dreaded Swarp?" I asked. "A dangerous monster, that has red scales, and can fly," replied Crystal.

"I'm scared" I said. "So are we. But we have been scared our whole lives and have learned to live with it," said Crystal and Bill in unison. We walked on in silence for a bit. Suddenly, there was a slight chill in the air and the sky went dark. "Why is it suddenly cold? And why are we covered by a shadow? I asked. "That is the Swarp,"said Crystal, calmly. "What?!" I yelped. Crystal finally realised. "RUN!" She shouted. We ran at her command and didn't need telling twice.

"STOP!" cried Crystal, and flung out her arms to stop us running. "We're safe here." "How do you know?" I asked. "Because, this where I live," she said, pointing to a little area of even smaller mud houses with tiny children playing around them. "Over here," Crystal whispered. She was pointing to a lonely looking tree that had no one underneath it. "It's safe."

There was a door in the tree. "Through here. We'll be safe," she said. So in we went.
