Crystal hello
Once there was a small family who lived in a forest. The family members were: Mulan, Via, Charles and Mercedes. The family had a big crystal halo and every New Year they put the halo on their heads and wished for whatever they wanted.
In 2011 on the New Year, Via the youngest sibling wished for this halo to be gone. She really didn’t like the tradition of the halo because she believed that if she put that halo on she would get uglier each year.
The wish came true!
Via’s wish came true. The family heard about Via’s wish and they grounded her for a month. That meant not going outside and not using any electronics for a month. Via went to her room and Mulan went along with her. They sat next to each other and Mulan offered to help her find the halo. Via agreed and they snuck out.
Cave full of crystals
Mulan thought for a long time and decided to go to the crystal cave first, because the halo was made of crystals plus its the most logical place to search for it. Mulan and Via started searching for the halo. Finally they found it, but when they took a closer look at it they found out that one piece of crystal was missing. That makes the halo magical. The crystal type was clear quartz.
The mysterious man
They started digging everywhere, but they couldn’t find the piece. Suddenly they heard a sound from the cave, it was a mysterious man who was holding the piece of the halo they were searching for. Both sisters gasped when they saw it and told the man how much they wanted the crystal. It turns out that clear quartz is very valuable.
The man was homeless, hungry and thirsty. All he wanted was food and water so they made a deal. Mulan and Via would give him food and the man would give them the crystal in exchange.
Missing piece was found!
Finally they got the missing piece back. They put the halo and the piece together and suddenly it glowed. That means it has recovered from the damage and now everyone’s wish would come true. The sisters arrived home and their parents looked terrified. They were very worried because they were missing. They hugged each other really hard and boom! They all turned into living beauties.
