Hannah was a seventh grader who was the queen of dragons ,but she didn't even know that she was the Queen of dragons.All she cared about was her grades and dreams of becoming the world's first female shuttle commander. Her brother didn't always make her life easy and was very annoying ! One day her mom asked her to help her brother find a book at the library for his book report.She didn't want to do it ,but she did anyway. When they got to the library Crosby( Hannah's brother) saw a book labeled " The Legend of the Sandman" and Crosby wanted that book for his book report ,but she didn't allow him.Little did she know he took the book anyways.Hannah was shocked to see the book and when she asked Crosby why he got the book he said " Uh........ I have no idea how that magically got in my hands" but of course magic wasn't real.At least in Hannah's point of view unlike her brother's. The book said " If you survive your biggest nightmare your dream will come true. Hannah knew magic didn't exist but she was desperate to find a way to achieve her dreams. After a few minutes she fell fast asleep.She was about have the time of her lives until her brother showed up in her dreams.Crosby was the last person Hannah wanted to see now. In fact she felt like slapping her brother on his cheek.Deep down she loved him ,but at the same time she felt like she hated him.It was a mix of emotions.After they survived their biggest nightmare ( It was the weirdest and most scariest dream ever ) they saw the Sandman and he pushed Hannnah and Crosby down the bridge. A big dragon saved Hannah and Crosby.There was a wise old woman who said "You're the Queen of Dragons" and faded away.The Sandman said " You have passed the test of patience . What is your dream?".Hannah said " I want to become the worlds first female shuttle commander" and Crosby said " I want a ball which lights in the dark and love from my sister". Hannah was speechless and hugged Crosby tight.12 years later Hannah had became the world's first female shuttle commander.Her and her brothers dream had came true.
