New Tales of Gobi Desert
S.T.F.A. Ho Yat Tung Primary School, To Veronica, Fiction: Group 2
It was midnight, but Willis hasn’t slept yet. He was still in his research institute.
Willis was a doctor. He studied history. A month ago, Willis found an old book on his shelf
accidentally. It was called ‘Go to the Past’. He was so excited that he could have a chance to know
more about history. However, when he was going to open the book, a fairy came out from the
book suddenly! Willis was very surprised and a little bit scared. He asked the fairy nervously,
‘Who are you?’ ‘I am the fairy from the Gobi Desert. One thousand years ago, a wicked witch
wanted to destroy the world. And… stop! We have no time! Please follow me!’ ‘No, no! Where are
we going?’ Willis shouted. However, it was too late. After a few seconds, Willis disappeared in his
institute, and the fairy brought him to the ‘Time Tunnel’. They went back to the Gobi Desert one
thousand years ago.
‘Wow! What’s that?’ Willis asked. There were a lot of houses, all mushroom-shaped. The fairy
took Willis to one of the houses, which was blue. ‘Now, please calm down.’ The fairy said. ‘Let me
continue. One thousand years ago, a wicked witch wanted to destroy the world but she lost three
important things: the “Rainy Ring”, “Golden Cactus” and “Magic Musical”. While she went to the
mirage to look for the Golden Cactus, a magician blocked her into a “Dicky Stone”. And now the
stone was broken! Everyone in Gobi is in danger! If the witch finds the Magic Musical, she will be
the most powerful person in the world! So, please help us! My grandpa said that we had a smart
guy called Willis, so I went to find you!’ continued the fairy. ‘That means you are my ancestor!
But why you are a fairy?’ Willis asked. ‘Since we had passed away, we went to heaven and Mr.
God changed us into fairies!’ the fairy replied happily. ‘How can I help you?’ asked Willis. ‘So
easy! Just help us to find the Magic Musical and steal the Rainy Ring and Golden Cactus!’ the
fairy answered. ‘Let’s start our journey!’
The fairy took Willis to the Cactus Castle, where the witch lived. They were gingerly tip-
toeing to the castle. They escaped from the soldiers carefully and they finally got into the castle.
When they were looking for the three treasures, the fairy found a cellar under the floor. They
went to the cellar like thieves and found that a tiny little bag was inside. They opened the bag
immediately and there was a note. It said, ‘The weakness of the witch is water.’ The fairy and
Willis read the note. The fairy used a pigeon to tell her grandpa to get a bucket of water. They hid
in the cellar and waited patiently.
The pigeon gave the water to Willis and they went to the witch’s bedroom. ‘Put down the
water. If the witch comes in, throw it at her,’ the fairy said quietly. They were looking for the
treasures. At last, Willis found the Rainy Ring under the pillow and the Golden Cactus was under
the bed. They got out of the castle quietly. However, the soldiers caught them and took them to the
prison. They were nearly hopeless. How could they run away?
They were trapped in the prison for three months. They were bored. One day, the fairy used
her magic wand to point at the pillar of the prison. Suddenly, something happened! The pillar
of the prison changed into the keyboard of a piano and it was the Magic Musical! It became
smaller and smaller and fell into Willis’s hands. ‘Wow! We have all three treasures now!’ said
the fairy. ‘So… we can use them to escape!’ continued Willis. The fairy used her wand to put the
