Goyo Plants City. He will feed you to the snow leopards, then get your map and find the treasure!”
But Juliet and Timothy weren’t scared. Timothy even decided to fight with the men in the
Goyo Plants City! Juliet was more intelligent. She thought of a plan and explained, “We couldn’t
risk fighting them. Instead, Timothy, you can distract the men by throwing some large rocks to
the other side while the rest of us will sneak past the area. We get to their place, then after getting
the diamond, we can save the children”
The plan came into an action. Timothy threw some gigantic stones to the other side of Goyo
Plants City while Juliet and Christy tried to crawl past the area. However, the men were too smart
to be tricked. They ran right in front of them. Just when they were about to get in a fight, some
eagles flew right above them and carried the two kids and Christy way up high in the sky. Gold
was smiling so brightly that skin around his beak was all curled up. He questioned the eagles,
“Why are you sillies here? You’ll get hurt.” But the eagles answered that all they wanted to do was
to protect their leader. Tears swelled Gold’s eyes. The eagles brought them down safely away from
the men. Gold then ordered them to leave.
The exploring group went on and after three days, they finally were there, at the Sand Palace.
It’s an amazing sight, with sparkling golden sand shining in the warmth of the sun. Christy
led them to a room covered with dust, spider-webs and rubbish. They were shocked to see such
an “impressive” room. Juliet, under Christy’s instruction, opened a trapdoor on the floor in the
corner of the room. Juliet had her mouth hung open by what she saw behind the trapdoor! Golden
furniture, diamond floor, silver walls and most of all, she saw a lovely, glistening, blue diamond
in the middle of the room. It was the Blue Moon! Gold flew in, took the diamond, and they were
ready to leave. Suddenly, the Palace was collapsing, with lots of sand falling onto them. Juliet was
almost buried by the sand when she heard someone calling, “Wake up, wake up! Juliet Chan.”
I opened my eyes and saw Grandpa calling me. Did I fall asleep? Was it Grandpa’s story or was
it my wonderful dream. Anyway, I felt so excited that I decided to write down this incredible story
and share with others.
