I was working in the farm, plucking some wheat, and then I heard it. The sound of horses' footsteps were closing in. Could it be? Was the army coming in? No. It was the dreaded, and scary Mongols. I looked and saw them slaughtering animals, and I screamed a loud, and high-pitched cry. "Aaaaahhhh!!!" I yelled. Then, the sound of a horn blew out, and I saw the Chinese army rushing towards the Mongols. How can I save myself? My family? And then it hits me. I will pretend to be a nomad, and take the ship away to Japan with my family, since we did not live far from the coastline. I run in my house to find my family huddled together, and scared. "I have an idea to keep us safe!" I said, and then told them my plan.
     My family agreed, and then we heard the Mongols coming even closer, killing some of the army. I rush away with my family, and then I see the boat coming. We may not make it after all! We ran and ran, and then saw a few Mongols rushing our way. We finally got to the docks, and jumped inside. The Mongols, however, jumped on to the dock, ready to hop onto the ship. Luckily, the ship left barely, and those few Mongols fell down in the water, never to be seen. As  we boated to Japan, I was sad that we would be leaving home, but glad that we were safe together, as a family.
