Way back in the scorching savannah of Africa there was a bossy leader named lion. He had a long majestic mane and long fair whiskers. Lion was good at solving problems but could also start them. Warthog was a laid back animal with not a care in the world, he had mud brown skin and such a handsome face. He liked to prance around the savannah and down in the waterhole.
The problem was Warthogs wish was to become king of the savannah instead of lion. He wanted to be able to make up his own rules. One gloomy afternoon the big rains had come and everybody evacuated except owl,she was so much in a deep sleep she couldn’t hear the thundering of the sky or the swaying of the trees. When Warthog saw her, he ran as fast as he could across the muddy ground and got wet cold splashes on his face. When he got to the tree he couldn’t see a thing, so he decided to shout instead.

“Owl wake up from your sleep! The big rains are here!!!”,said Warthog.
Owl woke up with a startle.
“Oh my.” Owl said.
She started flying up with a few flaps of her wings. Warthog was running behind her.
In the morning when the rain stopped Owl thanked Warthog. She also wanted to grant him a wish. You see owl was so wise she was granted the gift too do that. Warthog already had an idea of what he wanted.
“I want to be king of the savannah.” Warthog said.
“Are you sure Warthog” Owl looked unsure.
“Of course!” Said Warthog confidently.
“As you wish then!”
When Warthog opened his eyes he was sitting on lions throne. Wow he thought. It really worked. But just as he was enjoying himself Bushbaby walked in.Oh yes I get to solve different animal problems.
“What is it Bushbaby?”
“Well....” Started Bushbaby.
“All the Animals keep scaring me and I don’t know what to do.”
Warthog knew he was one of the animals that scared him, it’s just to fun!
“Hmmm... I’ll get back to you with that”
When Bushbaby left there was about 100 animals behind him. After a bit Warthogs skin broke out from the stress.
“I have to find Owl I can’t go on like this.”
So Warthog ran to Owls tree and pleaded for her to change him back.
“ First of all your face looks like the waterhole in the big drought. Second of all I will change you back but next time be careful with what you wish for.” Owl said.
When everything was back to normal Warthog really looked up to lion, he was such a great leader. His skin never became handsome again either.
The End
