The Lost Spaceship
Sai Kung Central Lee Siu Yam Memorial School, Dulcie Abuyan, Fiction: Group 1
O
nce upon a time, a blue spaceship crashed in the middle of the Gobi Desert. It was huge.
The hatch opened and a spaceman walked out. He was fine: he only got cut on his knee.
He was a lonely traveler. When he was on the spaceship, he watched a movie about
camels. He knew that he had to find a camel to survive in the desert. He looked for one
and found it near a lake. It was the deepest lake the space man had ever seen, and he drank as
much as he could. Then he got on the camel and rode on to see what he could find in the desert.
The sight of the dunes was wonderful. The spaceman was having fun, until he ran into the
wolves! He quickly looked for something sharp in his bag on the camel to kill the wolf. He found a
knife just in time. He ran it right into the wolf and killed it! He got back on his camel and rode on.
The next day, he arrived at the edge of the Gobi. Then he went on and he saw that the desert
was surrounded by mountains. That night, he set a camp and stayed there for the night. He said to
himself, “Tomorrow I’ll go back to the other end and try to find the pieces of my spaceship.”
In the morning, he went on just like his word. He tried to find some trees for wood to fix his
spaceship too, but he could not find any. Instead, he walked into a village of white gers and met
lots of people. “I don’t need my spaceship anymore, let it stay in the sand!” the spaceman thought.
Because the spaceman was not lonely anymore.
