Stardust ' s Magical Adventure with Team to the West
Creative Primary School , Wong , Yandy – 7

I am Stardust . I am seven years old . I am an enchantress . I love cheesy pizza , Chinese magic , sparkles and sequins . But most of all , I love reading ‘ Journey to the West ’! I love Sun Wukong the best , and I admire him ! I love his Chinese magic , especially his 72 transformations and his magic that can freeze anyone and more !

Last night at 8:30pm , Mom said , “ Time for bed , Stardust ! Tomorrow is your exam .” “ Okay ” I replied , immediately hiding the book ‘ Journey to the West ’ under my quilt . “ The exam is so hard !” I sighed . “ I hate memorizing those lengthy and boring old spells . I wish to go with Sun Wukong to India and get the scriptures .” Suddenly , a gust of wind blew , and I shrank smaller and smaller until I was the size of a fairy ! And the book ? It became bigger and bigger , so big I thought it was a skyscraper . I found a note on the book cover that said , “ STEP INTO THE BOOK ”. So , I carefully stepped in . Amazingly , a beautiful rainbow door appeared . I opened it and stepped inside . I saw nothing but a shimmering light . I gasped . I had never seen anything like it before ! Suddenly , a bubble wrapped me up and I floated in mid-air until I landed on some soft grass . Then the bubble popped . I hid behind some bushes and peeked out . I was extremely surprised . I saw Sun Wukong , Pigsy , Sha Woxiang and the Jade Emperor battling a demon . What ? The demon was Ice Frosty ! He was the villain of my favorite comic !!! He loved hamburgers as much as I desired cheesy pizza . He caught Xuanzang in one hand and he shot ice at his enemies with the other . I bet Ice Frosty wanted to make hamburgers with the flesh of Xuanzang to gain immortality . Suddenly , I came up of a plan to defeat Ice Frosty . I conjured up numerous spicy kimchi hamburgers and hurled them towards Ice Frosty . He immediately let go of Xuanzang and was busy grasping and gulping down the hamburgers . Expectedly , he began to melt because the hamburgers were unbearably spicy and hot . The Jade Emperor said , “ Holy Monk , please let this girl be your fourth disciple . She is fearless , tactical and has strong magical powers . She could help on your long , dangerous journey to Vulture Peak to attain the scriptures .” Xuanzang said , “ Maybe ”. So , I followed Xuanzang and his disciples on the journey .
On the way , many other demons wanted to eat the flesh of Xuanzang and we encountered abundant of difficulties . But we never gave up , and with teamwork , we defeated them . Suddenly , I remembered about my exam . I learned that I should also never ever give up . I told Sun Wukong , “ I want to go back home for my exam . I must be responsible .” “ Easy peasy !” he replied . Then , with a snap of his fingers , the rainbow door reappeared . I stepped in and the wind whisked me back to my warm , comfy bed .
