Prasiddha Dahal

Grade : 9

In the magical world of animals, animals could talk like us humans. Everybody was rich.They didn’t lack anything. In the magical world, people had 10 lives each and so they hadnothing to worry about except about the monster named Death. Death was a myth un- tilsomething unusual happened. There was a brave hero which was a cat who was in last life. He suddenly went missing. He heard the whistling of Death and feared to face it as it was hislast life. The brave hero who laughed at Death now feared it for the first time. He ran into theforest never to be seen again.10 years after this incident, the cat was no longer a hero. He had retired and became a lap cat seemingly unknown to everybody. The other animals did not believe that he was a hero and had set a bounty on him if it was true. Even though the hero had been missing for 10 years in the eyes of people and other animals, there was a family of bears which was still in search of him. Eventually they found the smell of the cat and by following his smell they reached a cat house which was run by an old cat. The hero was eventually there but the clothes he used to wear, he didn’t wear anymore. So the bears couldn’t recognise him.

The cat followed them and heard about the wishing star which could be found with the help of a magical map with which the cat could get his extra life. The hero went insearch of the map. Once again he got the hope to become a hero in the eyes of others. He still feared Death would come after him in the forest if he was alone so he took some of the trusted friends he made over the years. Once again after a very long time the cat went on an adventure. He felt like a hero. The map was with a merchant dog who had no idea about the wishing star. The way to the forest was very long and tiring.The fear of the cat or the hero came true as Death followed him. The same situation repeated and a whistle was heard to his surprise Death stood right there at the same direction from where the sound of the whistle came.the hero and his cat friends ran. They finally found the magical map and got the wishing star too. Death followed them and trapped the hero. He fought Death and at that moment he didn’t fear Death at all.

Death was ultimately defeated and it turned out that if we fear Death , he will come and take away all our lives no matter how many we have. The hero won and his wishcame true and lived a happy life.
