Here's a (hopefully) better remake of The Daughter of Herobrine!
Enjoy :)

A short girl opened the door to leave the house, and extended her arms vertically to stretch. She let out a huge sigh as she relaxed her arms.
"How much are you selling?" A voice rang out from inside of the wooden birch house.
"I'll see what we have," she called out her response, and closed the door behind her.
The girl walked down the steps of the patio, before taking a right. She turned her head to her left, as her emerald green eyes gazed at an old and stubby oak tree in the middle of the giant clearing. It was the only oak tree in the forest of birch trees.
She turned her head back while walking, and headed towards the small crop field to the right of the house. Her short blonde hair waved in the wind as she opened the wooden gate to enter the fenced-off area.
The girl slipped off her light blue cardigan and began to work. She uprooted potatoes, pulled up carrots, and chopped up stems of wheat from the field.
She replanted a considerable amount of seeds before standing up to gaze at her work.
She went to a corner of the field, where buckets, a hose, and other garden tools were waiting. She grabbed a few buckets before walking back to the piles of crops she made while digging them up.
The girl shoved as much as she could of each crop into a certain bucket, before lifting them up and leaving the crop field. She carried them to the table on the patio, and dusted off her hands on her orange T-shirt before opening the door.
"Kat, come here," she called out inside of the house.
"Coming," Kat replied. A girl in a white dress came down the stairs in the front right corner of the house. She had golden bracelets on both of her arms, a golden band on her waist, and yellow sandals. Her hair was long, and it was light blue. In the middle, it faded to sea foam green, and darkened to green at the tips.
"Come outside," the girl said, before walking through the door again.
Kat jogged after her, and saw the buckets sitting on the table outside.
"Didn't I say not to put them there?" Kat teased.
"Oh, hush. How much of this should we keep?" The girl asked.
"Hmm. What about the field?"
"Already replanted."
"Ok. How about food for ourselves?"
"We still have crops from the last harvest to eat."
"Alright, I guess sell it all then, unless you plan on saving some for the wild animals."
"I'll save some, of course."
A moment passed as wind few by the two girls. The unknown girl flicked her dragon tail that had a red and orange diamond on the end of it.
"This is going to be heavy, I'm not sure if I can carry it all."
"Maybe you could bring a wagon and walk there," Kat suggested.
The girl glanced at her wings that rested on her back; they were black with red membranes.
"True, but flying is faster. It feels like there is going to be a storm today."
Kat lifted her hand into the air. "Yeah, I guess there will be one. Usually it's not this humid."
"Yeah, mid-August is still summer, right?"
"Yep."
Both Kat and the girl stared at the four heavy buckets that sat in front of them.
"Well, I should probably wash my hands. Think of a list of things I should get while I'm at the market." The girl walked inside and went downstairs with a flight of stairs to the left of the doorway. The sound of water flowing soon followed.
"Hmm..."
Let's see... we need some potions, maybe we should try beetroot this year. You know what...
"We need quartz, that's for sure," Kat said out loud. Wait, they don't sell that at the market. That means...
"Hey, Allison?" She called out to the dragon girl downstairs.
The girl's dragon ears perked up to the sound of Kat's voice.
"Yeah?" She yelled out in response. She grabbed a towel to dry her hands quickly, and ran back upstairs when she finished.
"We need quartz," Kat said again.
Allison let out a groan, slugging her shoulder forward. "You know I can't stand going there... something about that place I just can't handle."
"I can't even go there at all. Water and hell don't mix, remember?" Kat replied with dripping sarcasm.
Allison sighed. "Fine. How much do we need?"
"Not much. Get half a stack, that should be enough. I've almost finished that antidote for you, I think that should be the last ingredient."
"Okay. What about the market list?"
"Uh, let's see." Kat racked her brain for what she had said earlier. "I just said quartz... um, let's see... oh!"
Allison's ears perked to listen.
"I think we should try beetroot, so get some seeds. And we need potions for this winter. And..."
Kat finished her list as Allison pulled out a slip of paper from her pocket. A pencil appeared in her left hand, and she wrote down Kat's list.
"Ok, I'll see you later then." She put the paper away in the same pocket of her blue shorts and the pencil magically disappeared out of her hand with a comedic poof. She lifted up the buckets of crops with a small grunt, and carried them over to the gate of the crop field where she left her cardigan.
She dropped them, and slipped it on. She rolled up her sleeves before picking up the buckets again. She nodded at Kat, who nodded in response before going back inside.
Allison flicked her wings, and extended them to prepare for the flight. She took one breath, and jumped up into the air.
"Ok, well this is going to be heavy," she muttered to herself. "Let's get back home soon so I won't be stuck in the rain."
As she flew off towards the south, a dark figure crept out from the shade of the trees.
"It's her... I can feel it." They said, watching Allison soar away with the crop buckets.
