Gobi Desert
Good Hope Primary School cum Kindergarten, Wong Wun Yan, Fiction: Group 1
I
n Mongolia, there was a desert with soft, golden sand called Gobi Desert. Its contour looked
like a human face with a raising hand. Gobi Desert was the most beautiful place created by
the God.
God also created Felit, an angel, to guard Gobi Desert. While it only took God one day
to create the desert, it took God 3 days to invent Felit. Felit was a very mischievous angel. Once,
he threw his friend’s magic wand during an argument with his friend. He was also curious about
everything. When he was just 1 year old, he began asking tedious questions like what wings are
for-- for a consecutive 5 days! At last, God told him off because Felit was too annoying. Felit
loved to try new things. Once, he wanted to buy the newest magic wand available and he asked
God to buy him. But the wand was very expensive; God didn’t want to buy. And Felit went on
a hunger strike until God couldn’t stand it and ended up buying him the wand. Even though
Felit was naughty, it didn’t stop God from loving him. God hugged and kissed Felit often. Felit
although worked for God, he would often sleep during work because he wasn’t afraid of God. God
was not strict and harsh on him. God never got angry when he did something wrong. Instead, God
would only remind him not to do it again.
But God still made up 1 rule for him—can’t water Gobi Desert or something bad would happen.
But Felit couldn’t help with his curiosity. So Felit found a glass of water and poured it onto Gobi
Desert. The moment water dropped on the sand of Gobi Desert, out popped hundreds of witches
from below the ground. Felit was shivering and did not know what to do. He now knew what God
meant but still, he had no idea how bad it could get.
One of the wicked, long-nosed witches flew up to Felit and said in a giggly voice,
“Thanks for saving me, my little angel,”
“You’re welcome…” said Felit, shivering to come up with the best possible reply.
“We did bad things, very bad things,” said the witch with a smirk.
“And one time, we were caught by God. Just a lousy mistake and we were to be forever locked
up and buried in here!” Growled the witch.
Felit found the scenario familiar. He recalled his history lesson. The witch must be referring
to worldwide meltdown a million years ago. “But how did you come back alive?” Felit wondered in
his head.
The witch seemed to have read his mind, “Thanks to you, Felit. If it had not been your
precious drop of water, we would have never risen above the sand of this desert. We are revived!”
Just as Felit began to piece the puzzle together, a witch rose behind him.
“Sorry but we would have to kill you!” said the witches. Before Felit could ask why, he
dropped onto the desert, like a dead fly.
From then on, Gobi Desert becomes the heaven for witches and even God turned a blind eye to
it. No one guarded the Gobi Desert anymore.
