Meet the Creatures

There were these two magical creatures and their names are Jaz and Sky. Now, let me tell you about them. Jaz is half-human and half-mermaid. Her powers are that she can turn into a human or mermaid, but if she wants to turn into a mermaid she has to be in water and press her bracelet. Jaz lives in water, but can also live on land. Now, onto Sky. She is half-human and half-dragon. She can spit water and do anything with water. Also, she is a “pet” of Jaz. She lives in a cave on land. This story takes place in San Diego, 50 years from now.

One day, Jaz wanted to go for a swim along with the sky. They walked 5 miles to an ocean, the pacific ocean. Then they swam and swam into a different city. They realized they were lost, they didn’t know what to do, but then Sky remembered that Jaz can speak to water animals. So Jaz did that. She ended up talking to a whale named Ela. So she asked the whale if she knew where San Diego was. The whale said yes, she did. When Jaz asked which direction it was, the whale said, “Keep swimming to your right for two hours.” They swam and swam, then they finally reached San Diego.

When they got back to San Diego it was night. They went to go eat at Alex’s Diner. They serve different kinds of Chicago deep dish pizza, so they ordered a large pepperoni deep dish pizza. The pizza was sweet, the crust was crispy, and the cheese was stringy. Then after they ate, they went over to Sky’s place to sleep.
