Unicorns of the Gobi
Kingston International School, Elaine Hui, Fiction: Group 1

n the golden Gobi Desert, the sky was pale blue, under it there was a little green land
named “Valley of Rainbow Unicorns”. It was warm and quiet. In the valley lived two pretty
unicorns, one was called Rainbow Dash, and the other was Princess Bella. They were good
friends, and loved to fly around the valley and watch the camels carrying people and heavy
goods moving slowly in the deserts.
One sunny afternoon, the unicorns were still flying around the valley and watching the
camels walking along the Silk Road, carrying so many goods on their back. But this time, they
felt bored, so they laughed at camels’ humps “Your back is so ugly, it looks like you are carrying
a hill, I can tell that’s why you move so slowly!” Rainbow Dash shouted at the camels. Princess
Bella nodded and said: “Look, our backs are so smooth, and we even have wings, we can fly
much faster!” The camels were angry with the unicorns and they were also tired and thirsty
after walking for so long. They did something horrible! They sneaked into unicorn’s valley and
drank up all the water inside. Suddenly, all the green leaves turned into yellow, flowers faded
and fell down… When Rainbow Dash and Princess Bella got home and found what camels did,
they were furious and decided to get revenge.
The camels went back to their road, talking happily about how the two unicorns would look
like after they found out all the water was gone. Just then, there was a loud BANG, a huge rock
fell down right in front of them and blocked their way. The camels were so scared, they looked up
and found the two unicorns, they did not say anything but sent the camels to a deep, black hole.
At this time, the camels knew the unicorns wanted them to learn a lesson.
The two unicorns were so sad, and they decided they needed to find water to save their valley.
But this time, they needed to walk 100 miles to find closest stream. When they reached the water,
both of them were sleepy, exhausted and thirsty. So, they drank half of the water in the stream.
Now they understood how hardworking these camels! At last, they used a magic water bottle to
bring the left half water home and saved their green land.
Meanwhile, the camels felt very sorry about what they did. After the unicorns saved their
home, they hurried to help the camels out of the dark hole. Finally, they all learnt a lesson about
how to respect others and sharing. They become good friends.
