Sam’s Adventure in Gobi Desert
Ying Wa Primary School, Hsiao Yau Kit Kyle, Fiction: Group 2
S
am, an American air-force soldier, wondered in the Gobi Desert in China. The Gobi Desert
was hot and dry like hell. It was located in southern Mongolia and northwestern China. It
belonged to the Mongol Empire.
Fifty years ago, Sam was a pilot who flew a fighter jet. While he was piloting the
jet, he realized that the engine had broken down. He pressed the parachute button and left the
exploding jet. He was in Gobi Desert.
One day later, he felt very thirsty and hungry. He could not do anything to help himself.
There was no sight of human anywhere. He thought he would die there. Sam walked for days. He
started to feel ache from every part of his body. A dramatic sand storm came towards him. It was
so strong that some cactus was blown away. He used his helmet to cover his face. He looked for
a hiding place for his safety. He has encountered the worst. He stepped into a sudden quick sand
trap. He thought he would end his life but he grabbed tight on a tree, “Ouch!” He was stung by the
thorns but he survived fortunately.
Sam wondered around for thirteen hours. He saw a golden palace. It was not an illusion but a
real palace. He went into it and found there was a red skinned person sitting on a throne. He must
be the king. Sam said, “Please your majesty, can I stay and have some food please?” The king
didn’t understand English. The translator right behind the king translated it. The king nodded
and told the soldier to give some food and a room for Sam. He thanked the king and followed
the solider to his room. Meanwhile, the king found Sam dropped a treasure map. He came with a
greedy and cruel desire. He wanted to have all the gold and jewelry, so he decided to kill Sam, by
letting the giant poisonous spider kill him.
After Sam noticed the king wanted to kill him, Sam must escape. He used his powerful hands
and pushed the locked door open. Fortunately, he ran faster than the spider and the soldiers. He
crossed the throne and asked the king, “Why did you need to kill me?” The king told Sam it was
because he saw Sam’s treasure map and he wanted all the treasure. Sam protested, “It was just an
ordinary painting, and it isn’t real.” The king said, “Then prove it, there is a palace, a water fall,
a cave around here, it must be real, liar.” So Sam led them to look for the treasure. Sam estimated
the trip would last more than a year because they must go through the land of cannibalisms.
They started their trip by riding on camels; they brought food and their weapons. Sam bought
his Winchester M1887 shot gun, which he had brought with him.
Three months later, they went past a lake, they had left the desert. They were exhausted. They
decided to stay for two days.
At night, a humongous cobra poisoned one third of the crew. The crews were forced to leave.
Four months later, they were attacked by cruel baboons. As they struggled to survive, no one died.
Six months later, they met a troll. The one eyed troll suggested if he won the war, he would
eat all of the crew. Sam went first to challenge him, he used a stone from the ground and threw
it into his eye. He killed him easily, when the troll fell down, he landed on top of a man. The land
shook so severely that they felt like earth quake.
It was already one year since Sam was in the desert. He and the others were at the land of
cannibalisms. They sneaked past them, but they had good eyesight. They chased the crew. They
