Once upon a time, there was a 1st grader named Jasmine who loved playing Fortnite. She had a special avatar that she had spent a long time customizing to look just like her. Jasmine would play with her friends every day after school, and she always had a blast. But one day, when Isla turned on her game, she noticed that something was different. Her avatar looked strange, and all her weapons and resources were gone. Isla's Fortnite had been hacked!
Jasmine was really upset and didn't know what to do. She decided to talk to her classmates about it, hoping that someone could help her. She spotted her friend Jaden and explained the situation. Jaden was really good with computers, and he knew a lot about online safety. He asked Jasmine if she had ever shared her password with anyone or used the same password for different accounts.
Jasmine realized that she had made a mistake. She had used a simple password that was easy for someone to guess. Jaden explained to her the importance of choosing strong passwords that were hard to crack. He also taught her about changing passwords regularly and not sharing them with anyone, not even her best friends. Jasmine listened carefully and promised to remember all these important tips.
Armed with this new knowledge, Jasmine and Jaden decided to investigate who could have hacked Jasmine's Fortnite. They went to their teacher, Mr. Jay, who was also the school's computer expert. With Mrs. Jay help, they found out that a kid named Francisco had been bragging about hacking someone's Fortnite. Mrs. Jay immediately talked to Francisco and explained to him why hacking was wrong and hurtful to others.
Francisco felt really bad and apologized to Jasmine for hacking her game. He didn't realize how much it would upset her. Jasmine accepted his apology and forgave him. She explained that hacking someone's game wasn't fair and that it hurt her feelings. Francisco promised to never hack again and to use his computer skills for good instead.
Jasmine's Fortnite account was restored, and she was able to play with her friends again. She was grateful for Jaden's help and for the lessons she learned about online safety. Jasmine also realized the power of positive communication. Instead of getting angry or seeking revenge, she talked openly with Francisco and helped him understand how his actions had affected her. They all became friends and started a computer club together, where they would learn more about technology and help others stay safe online.
