This story reflects a story from the Jatakas reading specifically targeting The Crocodile in the River tale that was written. But in my story I talk about two friends "friendenemies" that go overboard when it comes to trying to either bully or "fake" love one another. The cat is the Pet of the Jones Family, so when the owners leave this gives the cat the opportunity to act up with the mouse. The love hate relationship is a nonstop continuous thing, so you would think the two friends would know where they stand at.
----- ------ ----- -----
Once upon a time there was a mouse and a cat who lived in a single household family with no regrets. In reality, everybody knows cats and mouse can not live together because one of them is considered supper but in this tale the mouse is to clever to accept the cats "fake gestures of friendship". These gestures lean toward death for the mouse, but he is always one up on the cat. Always out smarting the car, makes the cat frustrated where he at times wants to hurt himself.
In the Jones Household, the Cat roams around while the mouse lives between the walls. When the family leaves the house the mouse and cat start up, with breaking things, trying to hurt each other and acting like everything is civil when the Jones return.
On July 29 2005, the Jones family went of vacation for a whole week and within this week the mouse and cat have been through hell and back with trying to hurt each other. But on this very day things changed. All the holes the mouse had made appear to have a string blocking the doorway to enter the house.
(mouse) *sticks head out of head "CATTTTT WHERE ARE YOU" 30 secs pass
(mouse) "CCCCAATTTTTT I CANT LEAVE ANY OF MY DOORWAYS IN THE HOUSE !
(cat) *laughing loud "hahahahahahahahaha"
what is it that you want? said the cat.
(mouse) why am i not able to leave my room?
(cat) becuase if you do, your head will be cut off!
Hearing that brought so much anger to the mouse, that the only friend he had in the house was trying to plot to kill him. The mouse thought it was all fun and games until on that particular day. So, the house knows the cat tries to grab him when he sees a opportunity, so the mouse goes in his room and makes a stuffed mouse. This mouse looked just like him. He dangled the mouse close to the string then BOOMMMMMMM the cat's hand is chopped off !
Friends are also tricky, so you have to pick and choose which friends have there best interest in you, because a lot of friends are backstabbers. Keeping a small friend circle is the best way to stay out of drama.
Moral of the story: Do not try to outsmart the smart or act like a friend towards a person. Because in the end the person who tried will be the one to lose in the end.

Hey Brisby! The story that you have written is really great and I truly enjoyed reading it! You included an image from Tom and Jerry, but it also reminded me of the Cat and Mice from Cinderella! I also like how you included a moral at the end of your story. I also really enjoyed the moral. I feel like we all have gone through an experience with "fake friends" or the option to try and deceive someone close to us and this teaches us that it is always a bad idea to do this.
ReplyDeleteHello again, Brisby. I love the way you narrated this story and emphasized the importance of a true friendship versus trying to act like a friend. I thought of the song, No New Friends by Drake. My favorite part of your blog is the picture of Tom and Jerry! This reminded me of my childhood. I look forward to reading more of your stories.
ReplyDeleteHi Brisby! I like that you added your author’s note at the beginning instead of the end so that people know what to expect before reading. You could also add a quick little summary of the original story you based yours on so people can refresh on what the story was about and see how yours was different if they don’t remember. I enjoyed your story and the dialogue you have between the characters.
ReplyDeleteHey! I really like that you use the picture of Tom and Jerry. Once again, it is so cool that you incorporate animals into what you are doing. I think it is so cool that you use them to tell your stories and it makes it really different too! Thanks for sharing!
