Gabdub’s One And Only Adventure!
Peak School, JP Ballschmider, Fiction: Group 2
O
ne winter night the Raja family sat by their fire thinking of what it would be like to be
millionaires. Then suddenly a rich looking man shouted and said “I have just booked you
tickets for Mongolia and you’re going there tomorrow!” then he dropped 7 tickets. The
next day they took a taxi to the international airport.
There the check-in person said they were going on Mongol airways. When they got on, the
plane was really dirty. A couple of hours later the oldest boy Gabdub looked out the window and
saw a desert. Soon he noticed that the plane was starting to fly lower. Then suddenly the plane
crashed. Gabdub jumped out onto the sand and ran as fast as he could. When he thought he was
far enough. He thought: I must be in the Gobi desert. Soon he saw 3 busses drive to the plane
crash and it picked everyone up. Since Gabdub was too far away for anyone to see the busses soon
left with everyone except him. He waited for a while more than half an hour.
Then he saw some strange rocks. The rocks looked like a sign that said: save us, Gabdub said
“that’s weird” then a voice said “That’s weird.” Gabdub felt scared and started to run to the odd
shaped rock. But after a kilometer or two he became tired and stopped to rest. Shortly afterwards
the earth began to sink, Gabdub tried to get out but he couldn’t.
Then a man in a black silk coat came by and grabbed Gabdub by the arm and brought him
to safety. The man ran off at once and Gabdub was left alone. He ran in the way the man in the
black coat had run. It had been a few hours since Gabdub had had some water, he saw what looked
like an oasis. He started to run to it but it seemed to diaper into thin air, I must be dreaming he
thought. It was starting to get late and in the horizon he could see the big rock that said: SAVE
US! He thought it must never rain because it’s a desert here. He went to find shelter anyway,
suddenly he tripped over a sharp stone, landing flat on his face! He got up and saw that the sharp
stone looked kind of like it could open a door somehow. Slowly he pushed it down and the trap
door fell backwards to reveal a staircase. He climbed down slowly to make sure he didn’t fall and
heard two men talking. They started talking in very low quiet voices and Gabdub couldn’t hear
anything they were saying besides “I found Gabdub and rescued him.” Strangely Gabdub saw a
little hole big enough for him and he sat down the seat started to move backwards and Gabdub
tried to get out but he had a seat belt that couldn’t be unlocked!
To Gabdubs relief it went slowly around the underground tunnel that it was going through.
The chair went in all directions besides up and then came to a halt in a small empty room. It
had a small bed, an extremely small bedside table and it giant closet. The seatbelt unlocked and
Gabdub got out. He went to the closet and saw that it was just another passage. Then in the corner
of eye he saw a map, he took it off the shelf and looked at it for a while and soon found where
he was. He found he was in the guest room and that the closet led to the chambers main room
there were also dungeons, kid’s bedrooms and lots of other rooms. First though he wanted to find
the exit, he couldn’t take the way he had taken with the chair because it was still there. But then
he saw that in the guest room there might be a passage that might lead out, he felt around the
room and soon found a passage that he had to crouch down to get through. He walked through
the tunnel for almost an hour and then came out into the sun. He was much closer to the town
that had a sigh that said: SAVE US! In fact he was right next to the mountain by the time he
