·Meet Taylor Johnson·
Taylor Johnson is a 12 year-old with blond hair. She is not a tall girl nor a short girl. She lives in a city called Cali City. This city has a lot of pollution and a very bad weather. Her city is really polluted. Taylor is very lonely because she doesn't have friends, cousins, nor siblings. Her parents are always working, but the only person she can be with is her grandmother, Nona.
A few days ago she found out that Nona went missing. Nobody could find her, and Taylor was very sad. One day, Taylor went to her grandmother’s attic to remember Nona. The attic was dusty and creepy, and it was dark, but when she turned on the lights, it was beautiful! It had a colorful teepee tent, and string lights. It had colorful pillows and there was Nona's ukulele. It reminded Taylor the times they sang songs, and played with her dolls when she was little, baked cookies and had sleepovers. Taylor missed this place. She spent a little time there, but then she saw something shiny.

·Nona’s Mirror·
Taylor walked to see what the shiny thing that she saw was. It was covered with a maroon blanket. Taylor uncovered the shiny thing. It was a big mirror! A big, old mirror, and it had a note on it that said:
Whoever finds this mirror please give it to my precious grand for her to keep my most precious possession. -Mrs. Johnson AKA Nona.
Taylor couldn't believe it. Her grandmother had left her with her most precious possession. Then she saw another note attached to it:
Dear Taylor:
I leave this mirror to you so that you can admire true beauty.
You know that I love you with all my heart.
Now say this out loud, "Creativity leads to open mindedness, and open mindedness leads to a better world."
With love,
Nona

"Creativity leads to open mindedness, and open mindedness to a better world," said Taylor.
And then the mirror started to glow. Taylor touched the mirror, and she got absorbed by it.

·Inside the Magic Mirror·
Taylor woke up in a strange, but colorful place. It looked a lot like Cali City.
But then she saw, Nona!!! She came running towards her. She gave her a big hug.
"Taylor? What are you doing here?" asked Nona.
"I don't know," answered Taylor
But before Taylor could finish, 2 kids: a girl and a boy, that looked like twins, came running towards them.
"What are you doing here?" said the girl. "Let's run!"
"Why?" asked Taylor as she was getting ready to run.
"Because Douglas Douglas army is coming!" said the boy.
"What?! replied Taylor. "Douglas who?"
The boy grabbed Taylor's arm and the girl Nona's arm and started running.
"Where are we going?" asked Taylor with a frightened voice.
"Anywhere away from them," answered the boy while rushing away.
"Hold up!" cried Nona as she was trying to stop.
"No time for hold ups," said the girl and continued running holding Nona.

·Miley & Michael·
The two kids took Nona and Taylor to a tree. The tree had a big hole where people could fit in. The two kids pushed Taylor and Nona into the hole, and then the two kids jumped after them a pushed a wooden door that fit inside the hole.
"What is going on?!" asked Taylor.
"We'll explain," answered the boy giving her a worried look.
"I'm Miley, and this is my twin brother Michael," said Miley.
"I'm Mrs. Johnson, and this is Taylor," answered Nona.
"You see, we were running because that's Douglas Douglas," said Michael, "and he is the worst."
"He owns the place, and if someone destroys at least a tree, he puts them in his dungeon!" exclaimed Michael. "FOREVER!"
"Forever?" "...dungeon?" wondered Taylor with a frightened look.
"Do you hear that?" asked Mrs.Johnson while signaling them to be still.
"I think they have found us," Miley whispered.
"Everybody, hide!" Michael whispered too.
But since Mrs. Johnson, aka Nona, and Taylor didn't know the place, they didn't move.

·Miley's and Michael's Idea·
Taylor and her grandma got captured by Douglas Douglas' army. They both were taken to a dungeon were they saw more people.
"What are we gonna do?" said Taylor
"Don't worry. I will get us out of here," said Nona
"What are we gonna do?" said Taylor
"Don't worry. I will get us out of here," said Nona
While Taylor and Nona where at the dungeon, Miley and Michael were thinking what to do. (Since they weren't captured).
"We need to do something," said Michael.
"No, we can't take changes," Miley argued.
"But we need to help them," replied Michael.
"Well, I'm not gonna get captured again, we just made it out, want to go there again?"
"No, but.."
"Exactly, we're not doing anything."
"But imagine if that happen to you? Would you want someone to help you"
"Well okay, I have a plan."
"We need to do something," said Michael.
"No, we can't take changes," Miley argued.
"But we need to help them," replied Michael.
