JOURNEY TO THE CENTRE OF THE EARTH by XAVI MARTÍNEZ

Axel was a boy that studied and lived with his uncle who found a parchment in a book. Saknussem wrote in code. Axel read the parchment and understood it, the words were from right to left. Otto decided to go to the Centre of the Earth with Axel.



First, they went to Demark where they took a boat Reykjavik (Iceland). The scientist met a man that was called Hans. He knew the area and had to help Otto and Axel to arrive to a volcano called Sneffels Yokul that was the door to the Centre of the Earth.



All them went inside the volcano and got a big cave with three holes. They found the right hole because of seeing a column with Runic letters near a hole. They went down with a rope for ten hours and found a corridor where they went through and found two tunnels at the end of the corridor. Otto chose the right tunnel and they went into to reach the end of the tunnel after three days. There was a big wall in front of them. They couldn’t pass or went back to get to the left tunnel where they would find water. During the path through the left tunnel Axel lost, but Otto and Hans met him after Axel hurt his head. When Axel woke up, he was with Otto and Hans inside a cave where there were clouds, trees, high rocks and a big grey sea. They made a raft and put it in the sea to sail. They fished a strange fish without eyes to eat. After two weeks on the raft they saw a sea monster that began to fight with them. There was also a storm that carried them to a beach near a jungle. They went into the jungle and saw a enormous man, then began to run and hid in a cave where they found an old knife from the 16th century. They entered the cave where there was a big rock and decided to exploit it. Then the sea water entered to the cave and they sailed in the raft until a waterfall made them fall. They got to the inside of a volcano that took them outside through the eruption of a volcano. Then they saw the sun again after many weeks in the centre of the Earth, near a blue sea. They awere in Stromboli (Italy).

They had traveled from Iceland to Italy underground. Otto became famous.
