Title: The Lost Headband

It was a cold, winter day. Me and my friends decided to go to the creek. Maggie asked her sister if she could borrow her purple headband. She said it was alright, as long as she gave it back when she was done. She didn't need it right now, so she put it in her pocket. We started down the trail until we came to a bridge. We were all wondering what was on the other side, so we decided to go. Me and Emily were already across when we heard Maggie scream. We turned back and saw that her pocket was caught on the rail. We
ran over to help get her pocket off the rail. It was getting dark, and we still wanted to go sled-riding down the hill in the Church Parkinglot. We started toward the parkinglot. Maggie said she was cold, tired

We ran up the trail to show Maggie. Then Emily stopped and looked at me. I said,'What is it? What's wrong?' She said,'Do you dare me to throw the headband in the water?' I looked at her and told her that she wouldn't. Not after we just found it. But with a flick of her wrist, she tossed it in. I couldn't believe it. After all the work looking for it, she did it. We
looked at the headband. It was flowing downstream! We ran down the path, following it. We followed it until it got stuck on a stick. The only way to get to it was to go through a huge jaguar bush. Emily looked at me and started to turn. I grabbed her coat and told her that she got me in to this mess
and she was going to get me out of it. We
