The Catch

One day there was a boy named Tamaki who lived in a village called Three Stars. His village wanted him to go fishing for food but he didn't want to. They argued for what seemed like forever but finally he decided that he would just go fishing and get it over with.

Tamaki was sad as he didn't want to go fishing; he walked to the small little pond by his village. But after a little while his fishing rod started bobbing. He pulled it up and found a little fish. He looked back at his village and in his mind he said "I hope this will do." 

Suddenly he heard a fox trap go off. He went to go and see what it was and he found a tiny little fox trapped trying to get away. He pulled out his pocket knife and the fox covered up his face with his paws. Tamaki was only trying to cut the fox free. 

When he set the fox free, the fox ran into the bushes and came out quickly trying to duel Tamaki. The fox pushed Tamaki down but then luckily he smelt the fish that Tamaki had caught. He jumped off Tamaki and went to the fish. Tamaki was relieved for only a second because then the fox picked up the fish in his mouth and ran into the forest.

Tamaki was annoyed at the fox because the fox took the only fish he had caught for his village. So he decided to chase the fox. He chased the fox for a while and finally the fox ran into a log. Tamaki jumped on top of it next to the other side to try catch the fox. But he didn't because the fox found a hole in the middle of the log and jumped onto Tamaki again. 

Then the fox ran up a hill and started to climb a mountain. Tamaki looked up the mountain and thought "Is this really necessary?" because it was only just a little fish. He decided that he would just carry on. While he climbed he felt nervous and scared. Halfway up the mountain he lost his favourite hat but he didn't climb back down to get it. He was so determined that he just kept on climbing.

When he got to the top, he saw the fox sitting at the edge of a foggy area. Suddenly the fox threw the fish and it landed with a loud splash. The fog suddenly disappeared and the bright sun blinded Tamaki. Then he saw the gigantic lake where loads of big fish were living.

The fox nudged Tamaki and gave him a stick which surprised him. Then he realised it was for him to fish with so he pulled out some string and a hook and started to fish. After a little while, he had finished. He caught loads of big fish for his village and as he was leaving, he gave the fox one of the smaller fish. 


Tamaki was excited because he had caught loads of fish and had not let down his village. He started heading back home. Once Tamaki was out of sight, the fox suddenly faded into the air up to the skies.
