"Huff puff!" breathed Luke as he tried to catch his breath. The sun blazed down on him thinking he was a nice yummy pancake to fry. His throat was stone and his feet were jelly. Luke yanked his companion, a camel named Sofia who must have weighed 10,000 kilos when he bought him. He was trying to find the emerald of liberty to save his planet from blowing up not play 'piggyback the heaviest camel.' he trudged endlessly across the plain until he found a golden gleaming chest that blinded his eyes. With strength left in his legs, he ran to the chest. BOOM! A genie rose majestically and for a split second, Luke thought he was seeing an angel in heaven. "I will grant 5 wishes to the owner of the chest, which is you." Boomed the genie. As he spoke he saw an immense sandstorm coming straight towards him with ferocious eyes. The sandstorm wrapped Luke like a blanket but not the cuddly soft blanket, the angry cold blanket. "Hey genie i am ready for my first wish," wailed Luke." Make me live!" Suddenly, a clear orb formed around Luke blocking sand from entering. The orb was like an invisible shield. The sandstorm whipped the orb trying to crack it. A bunch of sand balls hit his orb and the next thing he knew, he was knocked out. When Luke woke up he saw he was surrounded by wildlife. Toucans fluttered around miserably as hawks swooped down to devour dead prey.Luke gazed up to see a ball of fire falling to him. He stared at it really closely, it wasn't a fireball, it was a fire worm Luke tried to run but the fire worm tugged at the chest. They pulled and pulled until Luke had no power left. He saw the fire worm slither to the peak with the chest until it was a dot. Luke wiped a tear from his eyes. He lost his only weapon. "Hey it's going to be all right,"A voice whispered silently behind him.Luke spun around to see a rabbit and a fox comforting him. "We will give you special gifts that will help you on your journey to the fire worm's castle." The fox added slyly. Surprisingly, the fox kept his word and gave him a pair of shoes. "When you want to fly, all you have to do is put on the shoes and in no time you will be touching the sky." Then the rabbit handed him a regular nike cap. "This is the cap of invisibility when you have to sneak up on someone, put it on your head and you will turn invisible. Luke thanked the animals and head off to the fire worm's castle. It was a long way up so Luke decided to use his flying shoes. When Luke reached the top, his eyes feasted on the vast kingdom. He slowly went in inspecting every inch of the palace. Luke reached the throne room and something caught his eyes. A beautiful clear emerald was sitting on a table next to the throne. Unfortunately, fire worm guards were in every nook and cranny of the kingdom. A lightbulb went ping in his head. Luke put on his invisibility cap and sneaked up on the emerald. No one noticed when Luke stole the emerald and flew out using his flying shoes. The glamorous emerald smiled as he flew to planet Earth. The citizens of Earth gave a kiss to Luke as he placed the emerald on the core of light. Everyone was happy and piece was restored to Earth

The bright blazing sun squashed down on me as I walked with heavy feeble feet. My stomach rumbled loudly like thunder. I was supposed to find the emerald not walking around with a stupid shovel and a camel that stops every minute for a break. I thought maybe I could dig and find something useful on my journey. I dug and dug endlessly until I collapsed on to the sand. I felt something hard on my head. I dug again to find not just more sand, a glamorous treasure that shined more brightly than ten thousand torches. Suddenly, a booming voice came from the chest. An immense genie came out of the majestic chest. I was so shocked my mouth drooped wide open and I whacked my face twice so I could know that I was not dreaming. "Young person, I will give you five wishes but be careful you only have three." In a moment a humongous sandstorm formed and carried me. I screamed and only sand came in. I held the treasure chest like as it was my heart. "Hey genie, I am ready for my first wish, make me live!!!"

The wind brushed my hair across my face as the tall towering trees danced in the peaceful breeze. I looked above me to see the clouds greeting me with a smile as the sun went down like a broken elevator. I twitched my nose and smelt the delicious fragrance of ramen shooting up my nostrils like a rocket. I saw gazelles feeding on the green grass as the immense boulder loomed over them like buff security guards blocking their exit. Suddenly I heard a storm which was the roar of a thousand lions. The rain poured down like an ice avalanche. A few moments later, the storm was over. All I could hear was the chirping of drenched little birds and the ocean waves splashing endlessly onto the golden glimmering sand. My stomach rumbled and it sounded like it was telling me to eat something. So I went to the food cupboard to see the ramen calling my name. I devoured it like a hungry lion who has not eaten for days. I looked out of the window to see a beautiful sunset. This place was paradise!
