Imaginary Re-World

This is the aftermath of A child's dream of a star by Charles dickens (its not real!)

The buds were woken up by the sunlight. One flower bud, Flora, got an idea right away.

“MEETING,MEETING! CALLING ALL FRIENDS!” Stram, the stream, who was nearby, heard Flora calling out, so he he helped her by calling Twilight, Stram said “ Hey! Quit okaying hide and seek ! We have a meeting with Flora. Twilight twinkled and showed herself , well, only visible to her friends.

They all went to ask Flora what the occasion was. Flora asked, “You know the Earth children?” Everyone nodded. “ Well”, Flora went on, “ they think we are not real, but actually they don’t know about us!” They all nodded again, except two children. They were brother and sister, Drake and Evia. “ They only say goodnight to the mother of the stars, but not to us” they proclaimed. “ You mean my mother?” asked Twilight. “Yes” said Twilight, “ I have an idea! We will make clues that we are real! Like a treasure hunt. They can spread the news! It could be fun”.

Everybody agreed with Flora and started making clues at their stations.  After a delicious breakfast at their home Drake and Evia  went to play in the park. That is when they found their first clue! “What’s this?” Evia asked, Drake slid down the slide and saw the clue on the paper, it said “ I’m the brightest thing you can see in the sky. I bloom in a Divine season where all flowers bloom!” Evia looked up at the sky and quickly looked down as the sun was too bright that day. “AHA! That must be a sunflower!” Drake said confidently!. “ Brother, I saw a bunch of sunflowers yesterday in the garden. Let’s go!" Evia exclaimed. Both of them ran to the garden and saw a bunch of sunflowers, saying in sequence "I'm real”. They took a closer look, Luckily it was Flora’s flower. She shouted “ HEY THERE! I’M FLORA”. Both of them were shocked when they heard this tiny voice from the sunflower, “Well, hello there, Flora!’ Evia said, while waving her hand at her, “ Wow, are you actually, real?’ she asked. “OF COURSE I AM, DUMMY WHY DID YOU STOP? THERE ARE MORE CLUES RIGHT BESIDE ME”. They were so mercerized that they didn’t notice a piece of paper beside her.

Drake took the piece of paper and read it out loud “I live in a big water slide, can you find me?”. Drake looked around and saw three streams. Both of them went. Evia suggested that the first one was the largest , but Drake suggested that the third one was. They argued about it. Suddenly they heard a voice.” “ HEY! Both of you are wrong! Haha”, Stram giggled. Both of them stopped and arguing and looked at Stram, Drake said, “Hello there,I am Drake. Nice to meet you.” Stram answered “ He he!”. Evia giggled. “COME ON” said Stram. “YOU HAVE ONE LAST CLUE. LOOK AROUND THE LAKE THAT I AM LINKED TO”.

Evia knew quickly where it was! While Drake was confused about it’s whereabouts, He was looking under water!, “BROTHER, we need a fishing rod!” Evia exclaimed.  Drake looked up and realized that it was on a floating bucket. “HAHA, silly me. Wait here and I’ll get a fishing rod”. He went to get a fishing rod on the stand. “Fishing, young lad?” said an old man. “Uhh yes. Actually , my sister dropped her basket in the river accidentally” he said nervously. The old man said “Then go on and help her”. Drake walked away instead of running , because that would be impolite. He went to Evia and shot at the bucket. “ Bull’s Eye! Mate”! “What? That’s what Pirates say, right?” said Drake said while pulling the handle. Evia rolled her eyes and put her palm on her face with a disappointed look. Evia quickly took the bucket and read the paper. It said “I appear at night. If you see a shaking star say “TWILIGHT”, then all the answers will come to your mind”. Well, this one was more poetic” she said. “Is that even a word? Whatever”

As night fell, both of them were waiting for a sign. They quickly saw a twinkling star. Both of them yelled “ TWILIGHT”. The heard a voice in their minds! : Hello there! I’m Twilight! You have successfully completed the clues! Basically, we wanted you to notice us. Maybe tell others too!” saying that, the voice disappeared.

“COME ON DRAKE AND EVIA TIME TO SLEEP!’ Their Mom said. Both of them tucked in. Before  they were about to snooze, they said “ Goodnight Stram, Flora and Twilight” and fell into a deep sleep
