The Adventure on Sea
Harrow International School Hong Kong, Lee, Abbey - 10
Dear Diary,
“Alright, are we all ready to set sail?” Emperor Zhong Lee asked.
“Yes, we are ready if you are Sir,” Maiden Ying responded.
My name is Fei and I’m 13 years old. I have a sister named Yuan and my dad is Emperor Zhong Lee. Today
we are sailing to the Macadain forest to find this stupid pile of gold that my father wants.
“We are ready captain, let’s go!” Father exclaimed eager to leave.
Once we set sail, I went down to my room on the ship to wait for Yuan to finish her violin lesson in the
violin suite. While I was waiting, I looked out my window and saw trees as light as a marshmallow and
fishes dancing in the water. Not long after we started to sail, captain Zhang Wei shouted “Waterfall!
Waterfall!”
I looked out of my window and saw what seems to be a cascading waterfall under an opalescent light.
“Hey, let’s go play!” Yuan cried. Then I got out of my bed and we both walked over to the game center.
In the game center, there lots of arcade games like down the clown, claw machine madness and lots more.
We dashed straight to the game that we wanted to play and started playing. Suddenly the captain shouted
“Five Minutes left, Five Minutes left.”
“Oh No, there are only five minutes left, that means that we can only play one game.” Yuan said.
Then I said “Don’t worry we can still play when we come back.” Then we started to play the game that we
choose. “ We are here! We are here!” Captain Zhang Wei bellowed. We all walked over to the front of the
ship and waited for father to say we could get off.
“ Get Off ! Get Off !” Father told us. One at a time we got of the ship and went to the Macadain forest. We
walked inside the Macadain forest and searched for the stupid pile of gold.
We searched for ages and finally found the gold. Father reached out for the gold and grabbed the gold. The
crew quickly ran back to the boat to avoid any traps. Once we got on the boat, the captain told us that we
are going to stay overnight. The sun started to set and the moon started to say hello, I looked outside my
window and saw the sunset sky with clouds as soft as a marshmallow. The mountains were standing tall on
the green grass. I got tired so I went to bed.
Bright and early on the next morning we started to set sail back home. I was still very tired so I went back
to sleep. A few hours later, Yuan woke me up to go to the arcade. We walked over and played lots more
games. We played ten games and father said that there was only ten minutes left. So we played as fast as we
could and five minutes later we played fifteen games. “ Get off the ship,” father yelled.
Finally, I said I can go back home.
