Ostracised from high-society high school society, Mia and Jamison stick together. They may be financially challenged but they have big imaginations and big plans- and most importantly- each other. One day they stumble upon an injured magical creature that needs their help. How do you care for a beast (who's quite a bit larger than ET) that until now was merely the stuff of myth and legend? And, more importantly, how can you hide it in suburbia?
Step 1. Sneak creature from forest to Mia's house, avoiding cops, bullies, and parents.
Step 2. Set up a home in garage? Basement? Brainstorm excuse for Mia's mom.
Step 3. Paging Dr. Mia: Clean and bandage. We're gonna need a lot of Bandaids...
Step 4. What do they eat? Research. Lots and lots of research.
Step 5. Wait- How do you research a fantasy creature?
Step 6. Control a wild, fantasy beast.
Step 7. What to do if (when) the authorities come calling.
Step 8. Are we in over our heads? Naaah
The decisions Mia and Jamison make will forever alter their perceived reality, their relationship, and the very threads of the time-space continuum.
No pressure.
