Coleisius Kashun’s Gobi Desert Adventure
Kingston International School, William Davidson, Fiction: Group 1
C
oleisius Kashun is hard at work studying for his Chinese assessment exam. Yee Ha, his
classmate the cowboy, knocked on the door of his room.
‘Look! I have found a mysterious map.’ said Yee Ha. Yee Ha hates studying, and also
finds a reason not to.
‘Where did you get it?’ asked Coleisius.
‘I found it whilst digging for gold on the seabed,’ replied Yee Ha.
‘It looks like it is from ancient times!’
The two of them looked at the map. Then Yee Ha cried ‘Lets follow the map!’ The mysterious
showed an ‘X’ in an area north of Ulan Bator.
Coleisius and Yee Ha waved at a passing taxi, and begged to be driven to the airport. They
hopped onto a plane to Beijing and then changed onto an old WWII war plane to Ulan Bator.
The plane brought them to Ulan Bator. They borrowed a second hand olive green Land Rover
from Yee Ha’s friend, General KaoShung and promised General KaoShung that they will bring him
some diamonds. They drove out of the city and stayed in a ger.
The next day, Coleisius and Yee Ha jumped onto the Land Rover. Suddenly some robbers riding
camels sped down the hill towards the Land Rover. One robber said to Coleisius Kashun: “ Where
are you going?”
Yee Ha shouted ‘Look, they are trying to steal our car. Quick, drive off!’
Coleisius stepped hard on the accelerator. The robbers grabbed the back of the Land Rover but
the Land Rover swung left and then right and then left and then right. The robbers fell off.
Yee Ha and Coleisius founded the hidden valley marked X on the map. They took out their
shovels and looked around. There was no one for miles and miles. They dug and dug.
It was hot and the sun was setting.
‘I am tired’ said Yee Ha. ‘Lets just go home’
‘Wait! I can see some gold!’
They found a big brown box, which is where old. It looks to be from ancient time.
They opened the lid and …..
POOF! WHOOSH! There was a big loud noise.
Poow!
Wow!
‘Wake up Yee Ha, Wake up Coleisius!’
It was the middle of the afternoon, and Coleisius Kashun’s mommy is waking the two boys up.
‘You have to revise for your Chinese assessment tomorrow. And then practice piano’ said
Coleisius’ mommy.
Coleisius looked and Yee Ha, and Yee Ha looked at Coleisius. Was the Gobi Desert
adventure a dream?
