Everything was running fine until one day a serious problem arose. There was a huge fish pond in their kingdom. Everyday ten fishes were found missing. It was un-natural. “Where are our fishes going?” said the small squirrel. The worried lion called all the animals for a summit. Everyone came nervous. What will we do? What is the lion thinking? Will all our fishes get vanished like this? Many questions they had in mind. “The kingdom needs our help, we need to save all. We need to find a solution together. We will fight, we will win“, asserted the king. Everyone applauded and felt a new ray of hope. “Yes! Together we can,” they cheered. The lion now made a small team of the best specially dedicated to fight for this new challenge. They worked day and night to find out every small root of their problem. One day while working they saw that a huge murder of black crows rushed to the pond picked up few small fishes and flew away like the wind. This continued to happen every day. The number of fishes were getting reduced. It was very challenging for them to curb this. They went to meet the fish queen. She said that every day these big ugly crows fly away with the fishes. The baby fishes are so scared that they even stopped playing. That night everyone slept anxious in the forest. “Can’t we fight with the ugly crow gang? What can we do?” Said the deer in the meeting next day. The smart deer exclaimed, “Why don’t we scare them off?” .The squirrel replied, “That’s a great idea! But, how? They are so huge. ” The sparrow team gave an excellent impression, they planned to build a small statue made of twigs and placed it on the shore and waited for the next day. Everyone was nervous to see if it would work. Finally, the wait was over and the D day arrived. The gang of crows arrived. Their leader came near the statue, he didn’t look at it at first. He looked around and suddenly when he saw the gigantic twig headed monster placed by the lion team, he screamed all his life out. The group of horrified black beasts flew away like a storm. The animals were very happy to see their plan succeed. The lion king was very pleased by his team. The emperor applauded the king and his team and the news of victory spread all over the dynasty. The emperor helped to make an even bigger twig head and it was kept placed permanently. The fishes danced in joy. The crows never came back.
