Bimban Tiger and Jillan Fox

By Staff

There lived on the top of a hill, a tiger named Bimban. The name it self was terrifying for other animals in the forest.

Bimban could tolerate anything but never a fox. There was a reason for his rivalry with fox. Long back, it was a crooked fox who killed his grandfather pushing him into a well. Therefore it was Bimban's hobby to jump on any fox he met across his way.

One day, Bimban was on his routine hunting and unknowingly Jillan happened to reach before him. Seeing a fox, Bimban grew furious and started trembling his long mustache.

Jillan started shivering with fear and struggled himself to find out an idea to save his life. Even though afraid, Jillan told Bimban "Hey Bimban, You have no right to kill me."

Bimban was confused for a moment for it was the first time a fox talked to him so courageously. Bimban asked the reason to Jillan.

Jillan told "Last night during sleep the forest god came in my dream and made me the king of this forest. If you kill me the god will curse you and you will become a dog."

"What. you are made the king of this forest? Unbelievable", said Bimban.

"If you have any doubt walk for a while with me. You will see animals fleeing with fear seeing me", answered Jillan.

"Okay, we will go now itself" said Bimban. "if you were lying to me, remember, you will loose your life. Otherwise I will leave you free." Bimban added.

Bimban and Jillan started walking across the forest highway and to Bimban's astonishment all the animals they met on the way ran off seeing them. The poor animals fled from the way seeing the tiger not the fox. They though the tiger was coming to hunt them.

But the stupid tiger thought that the animals were running off seeing the king fox.

Then afraid Bimban pleaded for his life and asked Jillan not to kill him and ran away to save his life.

And... Jillan too ran the other way thanking god for saving his life.
