The stories were great. Here's my favorite:
Erin and Dave were best friends. Some say there were meant to be together. There parents said no though. They didn't care. But then it happened. Erin's parents took her away. Far away. To London. They took the necklace Dave had given her and threw it into the ocean. Dave said it was magic. And it was. It led Dave know where she was. A year later Dave found her. She had been locked in her room. He convinced her parent he was the best man she could have, and they lived happily ever after. The end.Okay, so it's not the most detailed story, but I liked it. I thought maybe the necklace I was wearing was Erin's. The author never said she got it back. I found at the back of the book was note. I read it. Here's what it said:
Dear finder,Please take care of my book. I love it. If I didn't get rid of it, my neighbors threatened to burn it. Please don't. I want my stories to stay alive.
Thank you,
Jonathan Reed

It was Jonathan's. I hugged it to my chest. I wondered if it was real. I remembered the mirror and I got ready to dive. Something stopped me though. A shadow moving through the water. I stepped back. The shadow started becoming a figure. A dragon boy. His pitch black eyes sacred me and his jet black hair that hung over his eyes made him look like a monster. His wings looked like a bunch of black bones. He was creepy. He saw me. "What are you doing?" he asked in a angry voice. "That's none of your business," I responded. "Yes it is," he responded. "Why?" I asked. He pointed a finger toward me. "A curse will take you piece by piece," he said, "and nobody here can help." Suddenly the world went black and I felt sand all around me. I didn't know what was going on. But then I blacked out.-Dream-
"Wake up," said a voice. I opened my eyes. A woman was standing in front of me. "You're cursed," she said. I looked around me. I was in a bedroom. "The curse will slowly take you," said the woman, "Only one person has the ability to save you." "Who?" I asked. "You have to find him," said the woman.
-End of dream-
Someone shook me awake. It was the black haired boy and he was sitting next to me. "Are you okay?" he asked as I sat up, "You blacked out. I didn't mean to be that scary. I was just trying to say that nobody on the beach can help." "Oh," I said. I felt really bad. I saw he banged me arm. "The curse is starting to take effect," he said, slowly taking off the bandages. My arm had a black line on it. "It will be okay for now," he said. Suddenly he started turning into a shadow. "Don't go," I said, "I'm not," he said, "My curse is effecting me."
