Hi, my name is Sharvi. This story isn't based on TRUE EVENTS.

For kids and other pre-teens and adults

 I am 10 years old. On the 18th of November, 2021, I discovered something. A good troll came into my building. What he told me, was even more interesting. He told me, that I'm living in another world, and things are not going right. He told me that right now I'm 10 years old, but in real life, I'm 3 years old! "Really?" I asked!

"Wait a minute! I'm completing my sentence" The troll said. He told me that I'm a mermaid! "Okay, I've completed my sentence. Now, you can speak." The troll said. "Yesssssss! I knew mermaids were real! Wait, what? Did you say that I'm supposed to be A REAL MERMAID?! You're joking, right?" I asked. Uh, trolls don't like to joke, dear Sharvi ." The troll answered. "You must go in the real world, or else, it could be in a really great danger!" The troll said. I said, "But all my friends are here. I cannot just go without telling them."

"You will meet your friends in the real world, I'm sure." The troll explained. I sighed. I had no choice to agree. (Of course living a life as a real mermaid was/is my dream) "Okay, so, what do I do to live in the real world?" I asked. 

The troll waved his hand and I was in my building and I remembered about the day I was born. Suddenly, I was shifted from my building to the sea! I had a tail!

Unbelievable!

I was in the sea, SWIMMING like a mermaid! I also looked beautiful! (Obviously) Anyway, I was always so afraid of animals. Then be it an underwater animal or be it a land animal. I was always afraid of it. But this time, I could talk to the sea animals and didn't feel scared. I felt FREE. I saw corals, small and beautiful fish and seashells. 

The next day, I was just swimming in the sea, while I saw an invitation scroll. It read,

Dear Sharvi, we are pleased to invite you, to the Mystic Isles to be a protector. It'd be our honor to work with you. If you have any questions, we'll tell you the answers when you get here.

"Huh, the Mystic Isles, I'm sure I've heard that name before. Oh! I know, it was in Sofia The First!" I said. "But, if it was shown in a cartoon, then how could it be real?" I said. Just then the troll came. First he told me his name. His name was, GRAND MOSS. Grand Moss then told me that the world I've been living in before, wasn't real. So the Mystic Isles shown in a cartoon were REAL in Real Life! Now I understood it!

I asked Grand Moss, whether I should accept the invitation, or not. Grand Moss said yes! "Okay, so, how should I get there?" I asked. Grand Moss gave a whistle,and 

 told me to get on land. When I did so, I saw               a short purple horse with wings. 

              "Hi!" The horse said. I said hi,

too. But then I realized that I could hear the horse speaking! "How can I hear what land animals and underwater animals, are saying?" I asked. "You have a special bracelet on your wrist that helps you understand all kinds of animals and insects. The bracelet can also summon princesses. "Wow" I said. "Okay sit on the 

horse." Grand Moss said. I sat on the purple horse. Then the horse told me his name. Well, it was actually a she. The horse's name was Purple Snort. Me and Purple Snort took off and we were soaring through the clouds!

                              "I've never seen a purple 

                            horse and I've never sat on 

                             a flying horse!" I said.

                                "So, you have sat on a 

                           horse before?" Purple Snort

asked. "Only once. . ." I answered. We reached the Mystic Isles and we saw many different isles. What are isles, you ask? Well, isles are actually small islands. The Mystic Isles, are a magical realm. There were many isles in the Mystic Isles, such as- The isles of the centaurs, The isles of the mermaids, The isles of the crystals and many more.  

"Where is the isle of the protectors?" I asked Purple Snort. "I'll take you there" Purple Snort said. On our way, we saw beautiful bridges, fairies were flying, and beautiful rainbows. When we reached the Isles of the Protectors, Purple Snort took me in a small cave. When we walked about 1 and half kilometres, There was a room. In where, there was a fairy with a faint  yellow colour skin. There was also a normal fairy, a small giant and a weird looking male fairy.

"Hi, Sharvi." the yellow fairy said. "H-H-Hi," I said. I looked at the yellow fairy and the normal fairy, the weird-looking fairy, and the GIANT. "Welcome, Sharvi. My name is Lily." The normal fairy said. "My name is Hoshika." The yellow fairy said. "I am Adit, and my GIANT's name is Niheet." The weird-looking fairy said. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Sharvi!" Said Hoshika. "It's a pleasure to

meet you, too." I said shyly. I was feeling a bit comfortable now. "My name is Sharvi," I said. "Hi! Well, no time to rest! We gotta train you to be a protector of the Mystic Isles." Lily said. "My. . . training. . .?" I asked. "Yes, when you are a protector, you must be trained. And that also means that you get your enchantlet and different 'things that you will need on any of your missions." Hoshika said.

Lily

Niheet

One day, Lily was training me to get my enchantlet.After we were done, I and Lily were just having fun after a long time of training, but just then, Lily's enchantlet started ringing. Hoshika had called us. Hoshika said that me and Lily had to go on a mission. She said that there was an evil

a woman who was trying to capture the Mystic Isles, and that woman's name was, Arya! "(gasp) And Arya is trying to capture the Mystic Isles, and you are saying we need to capture her so that she can't capture the Mystic Isles?!" I asked. "Yes," Hoshika replied. I agreed. I asked Lily, about the way for finding Arya. 

Arya

Lily just pressed a button on her enchantlet and a bow and arrow appeared. "This is the Which-way-bow," Lily said. "We can ask the which-way bow-about the whereabouts of a certain person or anything, and then the which-way-bow shows us directions to that person or thing," Lily explained. She asked the which-way bow about the whereabouts of Arya, and the which-way bow made an arrow appeared. 

The Which-Way Bow

The bow started going in the direction where Arya was headed and we followed it. It led us to the Isle of the Crystals. The Isle of the Crystals was beautiful, but did you know that the Isle of the Crystals was the most important in the Mystic Isles? You're probably wondering why it was so important. Well, the crystals that were available on the Isle of the Crystals were magical and all the magic that was in the

Mystic Isles, was provided by those crystals from the Isle of the Crystals! And with Arya invading the Isle of the Crystals, the Mystic Isles would fall! Anyway, when we reached the Isle of the Crystals, Lily put the which way bow, back 

         in her enchantlet and we started 

          walking on the Isle of the Crystals.

Just then, we saw Arya! We quickly hid behind a bush. Arya was cackling. But she didn't know that I and Lily were overhearing her. But then, we saw that Arya was wearing a strange-looking locket. "Hey, I've seen that locket before," Lily muttered. Arya opened the locket and inside it, there was a camera where there was a woman. The woman said, there was a collection of 9 magical objects and that collection was called, 'THE  WICKED NINE'. When we heared this, Lily was shocked! "If Arya gets her hands on the wicked nine, then no one could stop her"! Lily said. . . .

Go to the next chapter.

 We waited for the chance to get her. Soon she started to cackle even louder. "Where is the wicked nine?" She asked. "The wicked nine is in a secret place. Only the protectors of the Mystic Isles and the ever realm can unlock that place. The protectors have kept the wicked nine hidden and you can get to that place

only if you have a necessity key." The locket spoke. A necessity key is a kind of a key- chain with which you can draw the shape of a door and tell the necessity key where you want to go and then the door which you have drawn, can take you to the place where you wish to go. Anyway, when we discovered that Arya needed to have a necessity key to get the wicked nine, we 

felt a bit relieved. We needed to get Arya. So, Lily insisted that cannot keep hiding in the bush. So we got out and Arya saw us. "Well, Arya! I demand you stop what you are doing, immediately." Lily ordered. "Oh ho ho, it's gonna take you much more to defeat me than just ordering me to stop, you fools!" Agatha said. "Well, we will stop you, Arya! No matter what it takes!" Lily said.

"Ha! You can't do that when you've got a three-year-old girl with you." Arya said. But that's not true. Anyone can do anything. Just remember that THE SKY IS THE LIMIT. "C'mon, Sharvi. Let's show her who's boss!" Lily said. Just then, our enchantlets started ringing. It was Hoshika again! "Lily, take out the necessity key from your enchantlet, 

and let it take you to the 'place' were the wicked nine is hidden, because Arya collected some of the power from the magic crystals and now has the power to transport, from 1 place to another!" Hoshika said. "Woa! And. . . when exactly did that happen?" Lily asked. "It happened before we got to know that Arya wants to capture the Mystic Isles. Now go" Hoshika explained.

Lily took out the necessity key and told it where we wanted to go, and then drew the shape of a door, and then the door opened and led us to the 'place' where the wicked nine was hidden. When we reached there, it was a type of a jail, but quite beautiful. There, we saw the wicked nine! "I got here first!" Arya said.

But just then, Adit,  Niheet, and Hoshika appeared. "But you are not going to get your hands on the wicked nine!" Hoshika said. "Take Arya away!" She ordered. Arya was imprisoned. The Mystic Isles were safe for now. But who knows. . . Maybe someday, Arya could get out of her prison. After all, she was the most cunning woman in the Mystic Isles and a great danger to them.

   (Them= the Mystic Isles)

On Saturday was my first day going to mermaid school. I was going there because it was Saturday, and there was a holiday in my normal school. Anyway, on weekends, they only have fun stuff at mermaid school. We were going for a picnic, but being a mermaid was so new to me, and I was scared to go to a mermaid picnic

Geet

Just then 2 girls came over and said, "You're Sharvi, right? It's nice to meet you!" "N-Nice to meet you too!" I said. I've known those 2 girls! "I asked them their names. "I'm Geet, and this is Rahi" Geet said. "I knew it! Hi!" I cried. "You don't have to be scared, the mermaid picnic is really fun!" Rahi said.
