Indomitable Jess is a little witch. She lives by a bright green tree at the edge of the Enchanted Forest. She is shy but strong. She loves her shiny magic wand.
One day Jess picks flowers. She hums a tiny tune. A soft wind blows. The wind lifts her wand. It glows in the sunlight. Then it tumbles away and falls behind a bush.
Jess opens her mouth to call for help. She is afraid. She is alone. Her heart beats fast. She whispers, “Oh no.” She wants her wand back so she can make bedtime cozy and fun.
Then Storm Chaser arrives. Storm Chaser is a small dragon friend. He is blue with gold spots. He is playful and loyal. He loves to chase little breezes and catch dewdrops. He bends his neck down and wags his tail.
Jess says softly, “My wand is lost.” Storm Chaser blinks. Then he smiles with dragon eyes. He nods his head. He says, “Let’s find it!” Jess feels safe when he is near.
They step into the forest together. Tall mushrooms stand like umbrellas. Tiny lights flicker on leaves. Birds sing sweet notes. Everything feels calm and kind.
Jess holds Storm Chaser’s paw with one hand. She uses her other hand to hold a small lantern. It glows with warm light. She feels brave.
They walk past a log. A family of squirrels peeks out. A squirrel waves a tiny paw. Jess waves back. She feels happy.
Then they reach a patch of glowing mushrooms. The light dances on Jess’s cheeks. Storm Chaser sniffs the air. His nostrils flare. He points his nose forward.
Jess follows. They find a small pond. Water lilies float on the surface. The wind blows ripples. Something sparkles under a leaf.
Jess steps close. She sees her wand! It glows blue and gold. She reaches for it. The wand floats up like it is alive.
Suddenly a tall Sorcerer appears. He wears a dark cloak. His eyes are shadowy. He crosses his arms. He says, “That wand belongs to me.” Jess trembles. Storm Chaser growls softly.
Jess stands tall. She takes a breath. She says, “My wand helps me share love and light. It is mine.” The Sorcerer frowns. He raises a hand to block her.
But Storm Chaser leaps in front. He stomps his tail. He roars a gentle roar. The Sorcerer blinks. He steps back. He lowers his cloak. He looks surprised.
Jess lifts her wand. She waves it in a slow arc. Soft sparkles drift through the air. The Sorcerer’s cloak turns bright blue. He whistles in wonder. He steps aside.
Jess smiles. She picks up her wand. The Sorcerer nods and vanishes with a tiny puff. The pond ripples calm again.
Jess feels proud and brave. Storm Chaser nuzzles her hand. Jess uses her wand to lift a drop of water. She turns it into a glowing star. Storm Chaser catches it and giggles.
Jess and Storm Chaser walk home by lantern light. They share a box of shining star cookies as a reward. It sparkles like treasure inside.
Jess tucks her wand under her pillow that night. She feels happy and safe. She whispers, “Good night, dear friend.”
The Enchanted Forest glows under the moon. Jess dreams of new gentle adventures. She learns that courage and friendship can bring lost things back home.
