Ant and the Honey

Ant and the Honey

By:

There once lived a little ant that was no one very special. It was just one of those worker types that would go out from the Nest with the rest and join in the stream of ants, the Way. Like every worker it would find some choice little bits of food and then struggle with its load to carry back to the Queen.

Everyday from dawn to dusk the same.

Then one day the ant noticed something strange. It seemed as though while many were leaving in search of food as usual, fewer appeared to be returning as the day progressed. It shrugged this observation away immediately and went out into the Way with its fellow workers.

As it scurried along with its antennae waving about, out of the corner of its eyes it saw a huge tunnel appear from out of the sky, touch the ground to its left where several other ants had been scurrying.

Then it disappeared, along with the other ants.

In a panic it stopped several of its mates and said:

‘Stop! There is something wrong here.’

Just as the others were about to ask what exactly it referred to, several ants came marching up with golden droplets in their pincers.

’Wrong!?’ said the leader of this group. ‘Only a fool would say there is something wrong here. Look at all this honey we have. We have hit the Mother Lode! The Queen will be so pleased.’

‘But I saw something come out of the sky and the next moment a bunch of us were gone,’ said the ant.

However, no one stayed to listen; off went its companions to get some of that honey, while the others raced back with their sweet prize.

‘Well, maybe I was just imagining it,’ the ant reasoned to itself.

And off it raced to reach the honey.

Yet no sooner had it began, again it saw the tunnel from the sky come down and its shadow fall over another group of ants. And then the tunnel and the ants were gone.

With great panic the ant tried to stop the others racing ahead. Yet now the Way flowed with excited ants that could think of nothing else but that honey. The ant desperately tried to slow the other workers in order to explain to them what it saw. None slowed. They crashed into the ant or just ran over it, ignoring its urgent pleas.

Finally, one of the soldier ants came up, twice as large as the little worker ant, with its huge mandibles.

The soldier will listen, the worker ant said to itself.

‘What are you doing blocking the way?’ said the soldier ant to the worker. ‘Out of the way, you fool, there is honey ahead.’

‘Wait! You don’t understand. Something terrible is happening. Honey is not ahead. It’s death! Death, I tell you! We must all go back!’

‘You are a mad ant. And madness has no place in the Nest. If you do not cease such nonsense and get back to work, it will indeed be death for you!’

The little worker continued along the Way, out of respect for those mandibles; yet it no longer looked straight ahead.

Constantly it gazed skyward. Searching.

Until the ant saw it come again.

However this time it saw not only the tunnel, but to where the tunnel lead. And indeed it lead to death; for the ant knew now what it was.

‘Go back! Go back! An anteater! Death is here! Go back!’ it yelled while moving out of the Way.

But the Way was racing as news had reached the Nest. There was only one thought of the Nest--the honey!

And the little worker watched them all disappear up the dark tunnel.

Ant dan Madu yang

Oleh:

Ada pernah tinggal seekor semut kecil yang tidak ada yang sangat istimewa. Itu hanya salah satu jenis pekerja yang akan keluar dari Sarang dengan yang lain dan bergabung dalam arus semut, Jalan. Seperti setiap pekerja akan menemukan beberapa bit sedikit pilihan makanan dan kemudian berjuang dengan beban untuk membawa kembali ke Ratu.

Setiap hari dari pagi sampai sore sama.

Kemudian suatu hari semut melihat sesuatu yang aneh. Seolah-olah sementara banyak meninggalkan untuk mencari makan seperti biasa, kurang tampak kembali sebagai hari berlangsung. Ini mengangkat bahu pengamatan ini pergi dengan segera dan keluar ke Jalan dengan sesama pekerja.

Seperti bergegas bersama dengan antenanya melambaikan tentang, dari sudut matanya ia melihat sebuah terowongan besar muncul dari luar langit, menyentuh tanah ke kiri di mana semut lain telah beberapa bergegas.

Lalu menghilang, bersama dengan semut lain.

Dalam kepanikan itu berhenti beberapa teman dan berkata:

'Stop! Ada sesuatu yang salah di sini. "

Sama seperti yang lainnya hendak bertanya apa sebenarnya itu disebut, beberapa semut datang berbaris dengan tetesan emas di penjepit mereka.

'Salah!? "Kata pemimpin kelompok ini. "Hanya orang bodoh yang akan mengatakan ada sesuatu yang salah di sini. Lihatlah semua ini madu yang kita miliki. Kami telah memukul Ibu Lode! Sang Ratu akan sangat senang. "

"Tapi aku melihat sesuatu datang dari langit dan saat berikutnya sekelompok dari kami pergi," kata semut.

Namun, tidak ada yang tinggal untuk mendengarkan, pergilah sahabat untuk mendapatkan beberapa madu itu, sementara yang lain bergegas kembali dengan hadiah manis mereka.

'Yah, mungkin aku hanya berkhayal,' beralasan semut itu sendiri.

Dan dari itu berlomba untuk mencapai madu.

Namun tak lama setelah itu dimulai, sekali lagi melihat terowongan dari langit turun dan jatuh bayangannya di atas yang lain sekelompok semut. Dan kemudian terowongan dan semut pergi.

Dengan panik besar semut mencoba menghentikan orang lain balap depan. Namun sekarang Jalan mengalir dengan gembira bahwa semut dapat memikirkan hal lain kecuali bahwa madu. Semut berusaha keras untuk memperlambat pekerja lain untuk menjelaskan kepada mereka apa yang dilihatnya. Tidak ada melambat. Mereka menabrak semut atau hanya berlari di atasnya, mengabaikan permohonan mendesak.

Akhirnya, salah satu semut prajurit datang, dua kali lebih besar semut pekerja kecil, dengan rahang yang besar.

Tentara itu akan mendengarkan, semut pekerja mengatakan pada dirinya sendiri.

'Apa yang kamu lakukan memblokir jalan? "Kata semut prajurit untuk pekerja. "Minggir, tolol, ada madu di depan. '

'Tunggu! Anda tidak mengerti. Sesuatu yang mengerikan terjadi. Madu bukanlah depan. Ini kematian! Kematian, saya memberitahu Anda! Kita semua harus kembali! "

'Kamu adalah semut gila. Dan kegilaan tidak memiliki tempat dalam Nest. Jika Anda tidak menghentikan omong kosong tersebut dan kembali ke pekerjaan, itu memang akan mati untuk Anda! '

Pekerja kecil itu terus sepanjang jalan, untuk menghormati mereka rahang, namun tidak lagi memandang lurus ke depan.

Terus-menerus itu menatap ke langit. Pencarian.

Sampai semut melihatnya datang lagi.

Namun kali ini tidak hanya melihat terowongan, tapi ke mana memimpin terowongan. Dan sesungguhnya menyebabkan kematian, karena semut itu tahu sekarang apa itu.

'Kembali! Kembali! Tenggiling Sebuah! Kematian ada di sini! Kembali! 'Itu berteriak sambil bergerak dari Jalan.

Tapi Jalan berpacu sebagai berita telah mencapai Nest. Hanya ada satu pikiran dari Sarang - madu!

Dan pekerja sedikit memperhatikan mereka semua menghilang sampai terowongan gelap.

The Mousedeer Stole the Cucumbers

Long ago in Java island, lived a famous animal, the mousedeer. The mousedeer was famous of his cleverness, that he could always escape from troubles with his bright minds. The mousedeer’s favourite food was the cucumber. He loved to eat juicy cucumbers a lot, but the bad thing was he did not want to grow it himself, he liked to steal them from the farmers.

The farmers disliked the mousedeer very much, since every time he wanted to harvest his cucumbers, the mousedeer had eaten them that the farmer could not get as many as he wanted. So that morning, before the farmer set out to his farm, he made a plan to catch the mousedeer with his wife.

That night, the farmer and his wife made a scarecrow. When they had completed the scarecrow, the farmer put a lot of glue on the scarecrow’s shirt and took it to the middle of the farm and put him there. This time, the farmer was sure, he was able to catch the naughty mousedeer.

Very early in the next morning, the mousedeer had already arrived in the farm. He was very surprised to see the farmer was already there. He did not know that it was only a scarecrow. So he was hiding behind the trees, and waited for the farmer to go away first from the farm before he came and took all the cucumbers he wanted. He waited for a long time, until he grew impatient. It was like the juicy cucumbers in th farm were calling his name to take them away with him. So he decided to come closer to the farm.

The more he looked at the ‘farmer’, the more he realized that it was not the farmer who stood there all along. It was just a scarecrow and did not move at all. The mousedeer was very angry for he was cheated. He approached the scarecrow and kicked the scarecrow. Remember, the farmer had already added some glue on the scarecrow’s body that made it very sticky.

When the mousedeer kicked the scarecrow, he could not let his feet of the scarecrow’s body. The mousedeer was panic. The harder he kicked, the stickier it got to his legs. Finally, the mousedeer was strapped to the scarecrow’s body. He couldn’t free himself. He cried and cried for help, but no one was there to help. When the farmer heard his cry, he quickly went to his farm and caught the mousedeer. No matter how the mousedeer begged for mercy and to let him go, the farmer refused to set him free.

So, that was how the farmer caught the mousedeer who was famous for his brain.

“I’m tired of fighting, Baya,” said Sura.

“Me too. What should we do to stop fighting? Do you have any idea?” asked Baya.

“Yes, I do. Let’s share our territory. I live in the water, so I look for food in the sea. And you live on the land, right? So, you look for the food also on the land. The border is the beach, so we will never meet again. Do you agree?” asked Sura.

“Hmm... let me think about it. OK, I agree. From today, I will never go to the sea again. My place is on the land,” said Baya.

Then they both lived in the different places. But one day, Sura went to the land and looked for some food in the river. He was very hungry and there was not much food in the sea. Baya was very angry when he knew that Sura broke the promise.

“Hey, what are you doing here? This is my place. Your place is in the sea!”

“But, there is water in the river, right? So, this is also my place!” said Sura.

Then Sura and Baya fought again. They both hit each other. Sura bit Baya's tail. Baya did the same thing to Sura. He bit very hard until Sura finally gave up. He went back to the sea. Baya was very happy. He had his place again.
