Rainbow

There was once a girl who lived in a very small village. The village had 50 houses and in each house was a family. There were 13 shops, a train station, 3 schools, a hotel (not many people visited), a small forest, 2 small parks,  and not far away was a farm. The village was old and all you could hear from it was: Birds tweeting, the train whistling in the distance, people chattering and the hooting owls in the farm.
The girl was 8 years old and had a habit of wandering off into her own world.
"Mother, can I go to the farm to see granddad? He said he would give me a present today," the girl asked.
"of course but be quick, Lucy!" Her mother said. Lucy ran to her granddads farm, she loved to see him...actually she saw him everyday after school but she still loved to see her granddad. When she got there she held out her hand.
"Lucy, what I am going to give you is very powerful!" Lucy's granddad explained. He handed Lucy a golden, silver ring. On it was carved something Lucy couldn't read because it was a different language.
"What is it? Can I wear it now? It looks very pretty, thank you granddad," Lucy chanted "thank you" over and over again.
"Go ahead and wear it, it makes your dreams come true," Lucy's granddad said. When Lucy looked outside of the window she saw something strange in the sky. It was red, orange, yellow, green, indigo and violet. Lucy stared hard outside, she thought of sliding down the rainbow, living inside a colourful house on top of the rainbows. She ran outside and tried to jump up too the sky but failed miserably. Her granddad came out and picked her up.
"I'm afraid you can't jump to the rainbow, Lucy. I think you better go home," Her granddad said. She trotted back home and when she got home she drew a picture of the colours in the sky. She even drew the house she wanted to life in.
The very next day her mother took her to a park. The park was near the forest but Lucy wasn't aloud in the forest. She wore the ring her granddad gave her and wandered into the forest because that's what she does. She looked around and saw small flowers in the grass. She saw a path and walked along it. High in the sky Lucy could see the colours in the sky, she picked up five flowers they were the colours in the sky. She looked very very closely at the colours in the sky and saw a house, a multi-coloured house. She looked at her ring and took a deep breath and closed her eyes, when she opened them she was sitting on a rainbow. She looked down to see her home but could only see the blue sky. She tried to jump down but ended up sliding on the rainbow. She didn't like it. Lucy looked at her hand and slowly took off the ring.
