Long time ago, In the animal kingdom there Lived a very big dear also know as Stag [MALE DEAR] in the Congo Basin forest. The stag went for a stroll, when he saw Mr. Lion carry a lot of luggage's, the stag was just going as if he didn’t see Mr. lion. Mr. lion was vey annoyed and angry with him. When he got home he saw that he does not have food to eat or water to drink then the Stag was very hungry he went to Mr. Lion house and asked him for food and apologized for not helping him out but Mr. lion refused his apology and refused to give him food and sent him out of his house angrily. He went to his friends but their did not have food.

One day the Stag had walked all through the kingdom but there was noting to eat or drink, he stopped by the Stream far far away from the animal kingdom to drink some water. Has he wanted to put his mouth in the water, he saw a shadow of himself. It was his first time he saw himself and the beautiful and shining horn on his head. Seeing this he started to appreciating god for the wonderful and shining horn on his head, moving closer, his saw that the two leg that he has are very tiny and small leg, then he started to complain and started deprecating god for giving him such thin and tiny legs.

Because of this, he left the stream, he didn’t drink the water and then went back to the animal kingdom. Immediately he went the animal kingdom was under attack and their sounded the alarm. After 10 miles of the stag journey he heard the alarm and said "what is the matter, whatever it is my shining horn can handling it". After four miles of the stag journey he saw a set of animals were running for their lives. He was surprise when he saw noting chasing them. Their were trying to warn him continuous and continuous but he refused to listen and continued his journey. After a short period of time he saw another set of animal and their did the same but still he refused to listen to them. Then another period of time he saw war animal which are the spinner who were eagles, Archers who were birds, Army of Elephant and horse, The fire builders who were the dragons and the commander of War affairs who was Mr. dog. The dear asked Mr. dog “What is going on” the dog replied “intruders are here and here hunting us as prey run for your life”.
