Tiger

Once upon a time, in a small village surrounded by thick, towering trees and buzzing with the songs of crickets and frogs, there lived a brave and curious tiger named Tigo. Tigo's home was a cozy den covered with soft moss and glowing fireflies that lit up the night. One crisp evening, as the moon hung low and golden over the village, Tigo heard a whispering from the forest. It was a mystical voice calling out, "Help! Help! I'm stuck!" Without hesitation, Tigo’s curious ears perked up, and he decided to investigate. Tigo gathered his courage and trotted deeper into the forest, following the faint voice. He soon discovered a small, sparkling river he had never seen before. Across the river stood an old, majestic oak tree, glowing faintly as if touched by magic. As Tigo approached, he heard the voice again, “Over here! Please help me!” It came from the tree itself! There, caught between the branches, was a tiny fairy with shimmering wings tangled in a web of golden threads. “Oh no, how did this happen?” Tigo asked, his voice strong, but kind. “I was flying too fast and got tangled in this web,” replied the fairy, tears sparkling in her eyes like dew. “Can you help me?” “Of course!” said Tigo bravely. He reared up on his hind legs and delicately used his sharp claws to snip away at the threads, being very careful not to hurt the fairy’s delicate wings. The threads were tough, but Tigo’s determination was tougher. “There you go!” said Tigo as the last thread snapped. The fairy fluttered her wings free and hovered before him, her joy radiant like the morning sun. “Thank you, Tigo! You’ve saved me!” she exclaimed. “You’re welcome! What’s your name?” Tigo asked. “I’m Lila, the Forest Fairy. If you ever need help, just call my name and I’ll be there,” Lila promised. Just then, Tigo heard a rustling in the bushes. His best friend, Cubby the bear, appeared, out of breath. “Tigo! Tigo! I followed you! What’s happening?” Tigo laughed, happy to see his friend. “Cubby, meet Lila. I just helped her out of a tricky situation!” “Wow,” said Cubby, looking at the fairy with wide eyes. “That’s amazing!” Lila smiled and waved her wand. Suddenly, a path of glowing stones appeared, leading them safely back to their village. “Follow this path, and you will always find your way home,” she said. “Thank you, Lila!” Tigo and Cubby said together. As they walked back along the glowing path, Tigo and Cubby buzzed with excitement over their adventure. Tigo felt proud and happy, knowing he had helped someone in need and made a new friend. That night, Tigo curled up in his cozy den, the glow of the fireflies dancing around him. He felt the warmth of friendship and bravery, and he knew many more adventures lay ahead. And so, in the heart of the village surrounded by thick, towering trees, Tigo the tiger stood ready for any challenge, ever curious and ever brave. And whenever he’d need a bit of magic or guidance, he knew Lila would be there, just a whisper away. The End.
