Four Friends

Once there lived three friends in a jungle. A crow, a tortoise and a rat, they were very good friends. 

One day all three friends were gathered and a baby dear came towards them. The rat asked "who are you? We have never seen you before in this Jungle." Then the dear replied" I am new in this Jungle, the jungle I used to stay before, I have no friends there so, I came here." 

Then the crow told " means you are all alone here and you are searching for some friends?" Then the tortoise told "let's make him our friend?" The rat and the crow agreed.

They four used to go in different directions in the search of food and , used to meet at the same place. Few days continued in the same way. 

One day all have arrived except the dear, the rat told " let's go and find him " . The crow replied "no not all, only I will go because I can fly and have a wide visibility area."

When the crow was searching he saw the baby dear trapped in a hunter's net. Then he quickly returned and narrated all the story to rat and the tortoise. Then all of them arrived there and the rat cut the net and the dear was free. Suddenly the rat shouted " the hunter is coming " then the mouse ran to the nearest hole , the crow flew away and the dear ran inside the bushes. But poor tortoise can't run neither hide somewhere. The hunter caught him and out him in a sack and went away.

The dear was feeling guilty for the tortoise, the dear told " going to save me the tortoise is hunted." Then the mouse told that" he may not have not crossed the river till now, I have a plan come closer." 

Then he explained the plan to the crow and dear. Then the dear lie down near the river pretending to be dead and the crow sat on him and he was pretending to eat the deer's eye, and the mouse was hiding behind the bushes. 

When the hunter came he saw the dear dead and felt greedy so, he left the sack there only and ran near the dear then the mouse came and cut that sack and the tortoise was free. Then the crow flew away and the dear dan away. When he looked back he saw the sack was cut and the tortoise was not there he felt very sad after seeing this.
