HCs Fresh short stories for kids – 1

Once upon a time, a fat lion named FLAGGED lived in a dense forest full with green leaves and brown trunk trees. A unique thing about that lion was that he had 5 legs to walk and run. Yes kids, he was born with 5 legs. As he grew to be an adult lion, he became the fastest runner among all the animals in the Jungle. He could run so fast that even a Cheetah could not beat him in the races. His father and mother named him Five Legged, however he became more popular as FLAGGED.

And then something happened one day!! What happened one day?

In that jungle, a man came with his net. This man owned a circus. He wanted to catch the lion with 5 legs and train him for the shows so that he can make more money. So do you think he caught the Lion…

Yes. He did. He did catch the lion and put in his iron box and started going out of the Jungle. As he moved closer to the end of the Jungle, the lion did something…..

What… No he did not roar. He started to talk with the man. He said, “Hi nice man! I feel different right now and I want to share something with you”

Man said “What?”

The Lion said, “ I belong to a family. I am thinking if I am not with them, they might not be able to feed themselves. They would go very sad without me and would even keep looking for me for days. So can you take me back there, so that I can at least tell them where I am going? I’d happily come along with you after that.”

Man said “I cannot trust you. You may run away when I take you back”

Lion said “Well I am a lion, a brave and stylish animal. The king of the Jungle! I would never step back from my promise.”

The man agreed and took him back. When he went there, he saw two cubs running to him and sayig “Papa! Papa! Papa!” The lion came closer to them, hugged them and told them that he is going out for some time and may not be back due to work needs.

The man was amazed. He immediately decided to leave without lion. He remembered of his own kids and felt that by separating the lion from his family, he would not do justice. When he went back home, he all stopped circus acts for the animals he had and set them free in Jungle.
