Akshara-
Vulture Perspective
Yawn, I wake up and stretch my wings. I turn around, hoping to see a tree that's full of berries. I turn around again and keep an eye on my chicks. They were born five days ago. I fly off and flutter in the air. I fly from my nest and still NO FOOD!!! I am extremely hungry. In my journey to find food, I find a lake, full of water. I drink for a while and continue with my journey.
Finally, I find a tree. The problem is that there’s only one POMEGRANATE!!! The pomegranate is surrounded by meerkats. I need my appetizing food. I circle on top of the large sapling. I can still see the meerkats, gawking at the piquant, pomegranate plant. I give out a clamorous “CAW” and give them a shock. The meerkats stop staring and run away. They're still near the tree. I gently glide down onto the branch, open my claws and SLASH. The pomegranate is now in my talon. I drift off back to my nest.
I fly off into the distance, thinking that I can eat the pomegranate in peace. But boy am I wrong. I can hear the meerkats but don’t know what they were going to do next. I try to fly quickly but my wings start to hurt for my home is far away. The meerkats charge straight at me. As soon as I look downwards and see the meerkats, I am shocked! We are going to have a war. A war just for one SINGLE POMEGRANATE. I flap my wings as hard as I could but of course, it was no use. I remember that when I was a young kid, my mum would tell me, “Dear, meerkats are very quick, like their cousins, the mongoose. They can scuttle at 30 miles per hour, so that's 15 miles per half hour. Don’t mess with them because they can easily catch you.”
While I am remembering all this stuff I feel a YANK!!! They are trying to get the pomegranate out of my claws. Luckily, they miss. But no. One of them jumps on my claw. It is probably clinging on for dear life because I am flailing. Then the other one. After that, another one jumps on. Soon, all of the meerkats have attached themselves onto my claws.
I continue flying, hoping that the meerkats will fall off. I swoop up and plummet down. I head skyward, dragging the meerkats behind me. I try to shake the meerkats of, but they are still clenching onto my claws. I suddenly realise that I’m LOST!!!
I have had enough. I am super mad at those stupid, idiotic meerkats. I forcefully shake my foot and finally, the meerkats let go of me and the pomegranate. They all separate and they fly through the air(even though they can’t fly, unlike me).
Unfortunately, the meerkats get the pomegranate and start tossing it among themselves. I desperately try to get the pomegranate and succeed. I grasp onto the pomegranate, The meerkats suddenly form a pyramid on my back but tumble over. I look back, seeing if the meerkats are still following me. But... KABOOM!!!!! I crash into a wall with a large bump over my eyes. I can not bear the pain anymore. It feels like I just crushed my chicklings only I just realised. They must be STARVING!!!
I fall down and hit the ground. I can see the meerkats throwing and catching the pomegranate, as if it is a rugby ball. Then the meerkats do a strong pose and start walking. It looks like they saved the entire world from aliens. Then the one at the front, (probably the leader) kicks it in between two trees that act as rugby posts and he SCORES!!!
I watch as the meerkat kicks the ball. The other meerkats cheer with happiness. However, their faces quickly change as the pomegranate lands on the ground and squishes into tiny pieces.
