Story Transcript:

Cy: Mae'r haul hwyr yr haf yn bwrw golau cynnes dros gaeau’r ysgol uwchradd wrth i fyfyrwyr ruthro heibio, gyda chynnwrf y gem fawr ar wefusau pawb.
En: The late summer sun cast a warm light over the fields of the ysgol uwchradd, as students rushed by, the excitement of the big game on everyone's lips.

Cy: Roedd Branwen yn sefyll yn y coridor prysur, ei llygaid yn canolbwyntio ar y nod clir: datrys dirgelwch pwysig iawn, dirgelwch a oedd yn angherddol i ysgol gyfan: diflaniad gwisg y masgot.
En: Branwen stood in the busy corridor, her eyes focused on a clear goal: solving a very important mystery, a mystery that intrigued the entire school: the disappearance of the mascot's costume.

Cy: Roedd Gareth, y masgot caredig ond trapsglud, yn bryderus iawn.
En: Gareth, the beloved but clumsy mascot, was very anxious.

Cy: Byddai’r gêm hebddo yn ergyd drom i’r ysgol.
En: The game without him would be a heavy blow to the school.

Cy: Roedd ei feddyliau’n cuddio y tu ôl ei lygaid gwyllt, ond roedd Branwen yn gweld hynny.
En: His thoughts were hidden behind his wild eyes, but Branwen could see it.

Cy: Roedd hi’n berson sy’n gweld popeth.
En: She was someone who noticed everything.

Cy: Felly, penderfynodd Branwen gyda chymorth ei ffrind orau, Rhiannon, ymchwilio i’r mater gan ddefnyddio’r flwyddyn uchaf ei gallu.
En: So, Branwen decided, with the help of her best friend, Rhiannon, to investigate the matter using the full extent of their abilities.

Cy: "Fe wnawn ni ddarganfod, Gareth," meddai Branwen, yn cymryd anadl ddofn.
En: "We will find out, Gareth," said Branwen, taking a deep breath.

Cy: Roedd Rhiannon yno hefyd, ychydig yn amheus, ond yn barod i gefnogi eu hymdrechion.
En: Rhiannon was there too, a little skeptical, but ready to support their efforts.

Cy: "Ond bydd raid i ni fynd â’r ymdrech hon o ddifrif.
En: "But we'll have to take this effort seriously."

Cy: "Ers wythnosau, roedd pawb wedi bod yn sôn am y gem a oedd i ddod.
En: For weeks, everyone had been talking about the upcoming game.

Cy: Roedd hi’n uchafbwynt tymor yr haf.
En: It was the highlight of the summer season.

Cy: Heb y masgot, roedd yr ysbryd yn y dirlawnder.
En: Without the mascot, the spirit was deflated.

Cy: Felly, penderfynodd Branwen a Rhiannon sgipio ymarfer corff am unwaith ac ymuno â Gareth i ymchwilio.
En: So, Branwen and Rhiannon decided to skip gym practice for once and join Gareth to investigate.

Cy: Wrth iddynt fynd trwy wahanol gorneli’r ysgol, fe wnaethant stopio ger yr hen ystafell storio, man lle na fyddai neb yn meddwl edrych.
En: As they went through different corners of the school, they stopped near the old storage room, a place where no one would think to look.

Cy: Yn sydyn, canfu Branwen ffabrig rhwygo yn y drws.
En: Suddenly, Branwen found torn fabric at the door.

Cy: Roedd hi'n ddarn o’r wisg masgot - ei sbin sydd fel cydio mewn cyfrinach.
En: It was a piece of the mascot costume - a spin like holding a secret.

Cy: Roedd y darn hwn yn arwydd i’w dilyn.
En: This piece was a clue to follow.

Cy: Wrth i Branwen roi'r darn yn ei phoced, clywiasant gamau traed yn agosáu, gan wneud i’w calonnau guro’n gyflym.
En: As Branwen put the piece in her pocket, they heard footsteps approaching, making their hearts beat quickly.

Cy: Ond roedd hi'n rhy hwyr i gamu yn ôl.
En: But it was too late to step back.

Cy: Fe sylweddolodd Branwen yn gyflym mai eu gweld oedd rhaid.
En: Branwen quickly realized they needed to face whatever was coming.

Cy: "Rydyn ni’n dod o hyd i hyn, a dyna fydd yn gwneud iawn am hyn," meddai Branwen, yn troi i Gareth ac yna Rhiannon.
En: "We're finding this, and that's what will make up for it," said Branwen, turning to Gareth and then Rhiannon.

Cy: Roedd moment o wefr yn dod â phenderfyniad newydd i’r amlwg.
En: A moment of exhilaration brought a new determination to light.

Cy: Fe ddychwelodd y tri i ganol y digwyddiadau y diwrnod cynt, lle roedd ysgol gyferbyn wedi trefnu cyfarfod gyda’r trefnwyr.
En: The trio returned to the events of the previous day, where a neighboring school had organized a meeting with the organizers.

Cy: Sylweddolodd Branwen fod un o’r myfyrwyr hynny, yn gwbl ddiniwed wrth un golwg, wedi bod yn cuddio’r darn o honno er mwyn chwarae tric.
En: Branwen realized that one of those students, seemingly innocent at first glance, had been hiding the piece as a prank.

Cy: O ymdrech ddiflino a dewrder, dychwelodd Branwen y gwisg yn brydlon i Gareth i’w wisgo.
En: With tireless effort and bravery, Branwen promptly returned the costume to Gareth to wear.

Cy: Roedd y masgot yn dod yn fyw wrth iddo ddod allan ar y cae, mae’r plant yn gweiddi’n llawen.
En: The mascot came to life as he emerged onto the field, with the kids cheering joyously.

Cy: Gyda’r gêm yn nesáu, a’r ysgol bellach mor fywiog â'r haul, roedd Branwen yn gwybod bod dim byd yn amhosib pan fydd y galon a'r meddwl ar y cyd.
En: With the game approaching, and the school now as lively as the sun, Branwen knew that nothing was impossible when the heart and mind worked together.

Cy: Cafodd ei chydnabod am ei hymdrechion, ac ymhiliodd hi i glybiau dealltwchan yr ysgol.
En: She was acknowledged for her efforts and was welcomed into the school's intelligence clubs.

Cy: Wrth adael y cae, nawr yn hyderus gyda gwybod y gall ddatrys unrhyw ddirgelwch, gwelodd Branwen bod dyfodol llesniol yn aros iddi.
En: As she left the field, now confident with the knowledge that she could solve any mystery, Branwen saw a bright future awaiting her.

Cy: Roedd hi’n gwybod, beth bynnag fyddai'n dod, ei bod hi erioed wedi bod mor barod.
En: She knew, whatever would come, that she had never been so ready.
