Upon the mountains, we see the plane on top of the rocks as Hira picks it up. She tells me, “Thank you for everything. But do you have a home?”

“I do have a home. It’s not like Australia, but it kinda reminds me of it. Also, my mom always said to me that as an adult, you are going to live alone,” I said. 

Hira giggles and takes me to her cave for a dress-up. 

“Next time, but what is your name?” I squeaked. 

“Remember me. My name is Hira, and I am your friend,” she smiled. 

I wave goodbye and run back to Snail. I ran so long and found myself a mural for Gregory. Diego, Lucy,  and Snail are here, and I drop down on my knees, and tears flow as I am in pain. 

After a long moment of silence, we walked around the forest near Diego’s treehouse, and Diego found some bananas for everyone at the tall trees. I found some leaves that were similar to what I eat and picked them up. I smell it and taste it. 

CHOMP!!

Wow! It’s so tasty! And Snail eats grass and enjoys chewing it. All four of us smiled that we had food, but Diego wanted to tell us about animals. 

“Animals are like friends. They move, breathe, and of course, have feelings for others. I have seen animals as you communicate so well like us,” smiled Diego. 

We all smiled but what I can wish is that Diego and Hira can understand our English. 

Meanwhile, the animals in the cave are hungry but Fredrick thinks of an idea, but food distracts him. 

“We should find food. But my idea is to get off this island and go back home. We must make a boat and set sail,” Fredrick points out his idea. His family and the gorillas agreed. But the ostriches do not know how to make one as everyone has no idea how to make it. 

“I remember the time a boat was made when I was a little hippo. They use wood to do it,” said Hippy the Hippo. 

“Good idea! Everyone! Chop some wood from that forest!” commanded Fredrick. 

Chopping the wood by their hands and jaws, Bono and Bona see a rope out of nowhere and steal it quickly while the cheetahs spot a cloth also out of place. They steal it quickly and run back to the base where the aliens spot them grabbing their items without permission. They race back to the base and call out a war. 

Hira heard the yells of her brothers and hid in the cave, along with several women and children, finding a place to cover themselves. 

“The animals! We must kill them all!” Yelled the older alien brother, who has long green hair. 

“TT, save you energy. I want to know what these animals are doing? Are they planning to attack us back?” Ordered the chief who just came out from his tent. 

l

“But Grandpa. They are dumb and foolish!” TT coughs where he points out the direction of the captive animals. 

All of the animals are there, building a boat that is bigger than their zoo. After strapping the ropes to connect each large wood stick, the gorillas push it to the shore and hop onto the boat. The curtains are pushing themselves by the wind, leading the traveler to the north. But one elephant decided to do something. 

“After one of our elephants died from the aliens, I have to avenge my father who died from this alien boy. I cannot use my loyalty to them after what they had done to my dad. I must go. I do care about going back, but I care more about is him,” one of the elephants named Pimples, who have red dots on his entire body hop out of the boat and push it away until it went so far. 

“Pimples!!! What do you think you are doing!?! You are going to get yourself killed!” cried Kinna. Pimples did not respond. 

“Let the boy go. He is grown now since his father fights all hunters and zookeepers,” the leader of the elephants, Claus grab Hinna’s ear with his trunk. They both see the male elephant running away and finding a hiding spot in the jungle. 

All of the aliens enter the shoreline and seeing how confused the animals, thinking they had surrendered or finding a new home. 

Entering Diego’s treehouse, we see many of his pictures with his friend who is also his boyfriend. But why is he older and has wrinkles? Why is he look like a serial killer? Why is the human world filled with machines and art? While we are living in a place filled with nature’s creation like trees and grass. 

“You may be thinking why he is older than me? Let me tell you,” Diego said in front of us.
