Fairytopia Part I

It was a warm sunny day on the island of Fairytopia. A mermaid named Leah lived deep below the surface of the water surrounding the island with her mother Queen Vicky. Princess Leah was beautiful with a rainbow coloured tail and long shiny blond hair.

Mermaid Leah was playing with her friends, Jamie-Lee, Sophie, Chloe and Zoe when suddenly a mean ugly octopus named Dennis appeared and chased the mermaids through the water trying to steal Princess Leah’s tiara but the girls were too fast for Dennis and managed to escape.
