P
rincess Anya, B.O.B., Obama, Cruz Beckham and Katy Roar needed to go for a meeting in
Mongolia to help the poor people. They were going from North China to South Mongolia.
They set off at half twelve pm in a private jet. At 2.00am they were running out of petrol.
When it was 2.17am they ran out and then the plane shot down to the sandy ground.
They found that they were in the Gobi Desert. They were worried they didn’t have enough
water and food. Nobody knew they’d crashed. Also there was no phone signal and the plane radio
was broken. It was a desperate situation.
They were wandering around, wondering what to do, they were kicking around on the floor
thinking if they were going to live or die. They noticed some stone in amongst the sand, they
picked one up and just looked at it and they were amazed when they noticed a shape in the stone.
It was a fossil! They were everywhere. So they went on picking them up.
Cruz Beckham saw shadows on the floor and looked up and shouted, “There’s people!” They
turned out to be Fossil Finders. The Fossil Finders said, “If you give us all your fossils we will let
you use our plane.” B.O.B. and Obama said, “Could we just keep one each and you can have the
rest?” The Fossil Finders said, “Just one each then.”
Just when they thought they were OK they realized the pilot had dropped them off at the east
of the Gobi Desert and left them. Then a camel train approached led by desert people. They could
see the problem and offered to take Katy Roar and her friends to the border of Mongolia. Since the
desert people looked so fierce Katy Roar decided not to trust them, and said, “No thanks.” So the
camel train trotted away.
They were all standing saying to each other, “The meeting is tomorrow, what should we do?”
Then Princess Anya said, “I know, I know, I know, we can find fossils and write S.O.S. on the sand
with them.” As soon as they finished, a helicopter flew over them. They were jumping, screaming
and shouting. They all hugged each other when the helicopter was landing.
The helicopter took them to their meeting and they were actually 10 minutes early!
