The Mouse and The Lion
By: Alida Safsten
At 11:47 a boy was being chased down a very long street by a girl with a sharp item. The little boy was running until he got to 27th street. Panting and sweating finally got rid of the woman. The wall behind the boy was cold and rough. The nearest house he saw was about 45 ft away. Jumping and crawling he reached the house. Then he heard a woman yell, “There!” He screamed and ran towards the front door. A little boy happened to ran into an old couple’s house in the middle of the night. The old man living in the house heard some smashing in his kitchen so he woke up and found a young boy. He grabbed the little boys arm and said “what are you doing?” he reached for the phone and the little boy cried out. “Please just let me go. If I am saved, I shall be everlasting grateful.”
The old man was very kind to the young boy and said with a smile it’s alright run home and gets rest young man. Then the boy pleased “Thank you, thank you, thank you!” He was astonished by the child’s gratitude. When the man went on a walk that morning he was robbed by a thug on the street. He started hitting the robber with his cane and started yelling for help. The thug made the old guy black out, he ran off with all of the man’s possessions.
Until the little boy down the street came and ran over the guy with his tricycle breaking all of his toes. The stealer fell to the ground sobbing in pain. He was in so much pain he surrendered to the young boy. Then he gave the boy all of the things he stole from the old man. One of the possessions he stole was his cane. All of the sudden the boy snatches the cane and hits the guy in the head very hard.
The young boy went to the old man and returned all of the items. The old man was eternally grateful. The boy said, "You laughed at me once, as if you could receive no return from me, but now, you see, it is you who have to be grateful to me." Then the man said, oh thank you kind boy, you’re a real hero. I saved you once now you saved me in return. Thank you very much for returning my items. So the little boy and the old man both were very kind and grateful for the heroic actions of one another. The moral of the story is that little things can do the same or more than people bigger than you. It doesn’t matter how small you are. You can still help people. That is the moral of the story because it shows that nothing is impossible for someone as young as 1 to one as old as 98 years old.
