The Choice

There was a place were you could find every type of animal. The places had everything water, animals, plants, and different types of food. Everyone had their own space and they liked interacting with the others species. In that place there was always the same temperatures and some of the animals weren´t as happy as others.  One night while everyone was sleep the king of the lions the strongest and resistant to change started to hear strange noises there the kangaroos where sleeping.  The king of the lions when to the owl how was the wisest of the animals in the land and asked him:

-      

What are all those noises?

-      

Everything you know is about to change.

-      

What is changing? Why does it have to change?

-      

It is time for everyone to choose their own paths.

-      

But we are happy with the way things are.

-      

Ones each animal choose their path things will get better, you will be in a place where you can find everything you need and be at the perfect place for your kind.

The king of the lions went back with his kind and wonder all night what changes where about to happen. In the morning the king of the lions went with his closest ally the king of the tigers.

-Things as we know are about to change and I will like to know if you and your kind with stay with us. The owls told me that every species will have to choose a path for their own and we want you to stay with us.

- You know we will trust you and follow your kind what ever that change might be.

That night the owl wanted to talk to every animal and explained the changes that were about to happen. The owl said, “The land is breaking and every animal will have to choose their way. Every part of the land will move to a different place where the plants will start to change, the water won´t be the same, and the climate will be different for every region. The ones that move to the northern part of the land will move to a colder place, the ones in the east part of the land will live in a dessert with few plants and higher temperatures the ones that go to the south will have lots of vegetation but a smaller space and the ones that go to the west will stay with everything as it is write know.“

The king of the lions started to spread the word that he wanted everyone to stay at the west.  Since most of the animals were scared of him they agree with what he wanted and others thought it was safe thing to do but some like the kangaroos, the camels and gorillas weren´t so sure if it was the right thing to do. They thought that they could be happier in another land so they stared to make their own plan and going to other animals that the thought could be happier some place else.

The morning when the animals were choosing the path they wanted to go. The sun started raising and some of the animal were gone. They choose to go against what the lions said and take their own path.
