Long ago in the city of Beijing, the people were very scared of wild animals and so the people were also very scared to settle near the forest areas. Many or almost all the people feared to become a hunter. China was the 2nd most beautiful country in the world that time. The people enjoyed good and delicious food, fresh atmosphere and moderate climate. There was a mountain in there which is the smallest and the most beautiful mountain of the world. The height of that mountain was 632 mts and the name of that mountain was planfell mountain. All the people liked that mountain very much, but they were scared because there is a elephant living in there. The people were less fearful of animals but when the children were born again and again, the fear increased. The fear increased too much at the time when Shan hoo was born. A citizen who is the grandson of the princess of Beijing. There was a book called kolo-sang-moro. It was an Interesting story book which they had before so many years. The people would sometimes play Chess and Snake&Ladder because that was the traditional game of their city. A citizen named Marimosi became the chief of the city as he got 60% of the votes in the election. He was not good to manage the city. He told that the traditional game of our city is not going to be Chess and Snake&Ladder. It is going to be Cricket and Soccer(Football) and nobody must play chess and the other game. The people didn't like what he said and they started writing it on boards and shouted to change the chief minister. They were very sad and angry to hear what he said. Actually he didn't belong to the city because he was from Manchester United.

Then 97 years later it was A.D 272. At that time there was a brave scientist called Frehell Grohi who came from South India and even he became scared about wild animals after hearing what the people of Beijing told about their fear of wild animals. The next day he didn't get a fresh sleep. He was as brave as a vulture but the people explained him again and again until he got scared of wild animals. At that time, the scientist was 41 years old. If the people of China were not scared about this situation then the scientist would not be scared about the wild animals. The scientist knew that there will be less wildlife in China and more wildlife in Africa but he never remembered that these days. Then 10 years later the scientist was the only one in the city who was trying to control his fear but much as he tried he couldn't and so till he died he wasn't be able to control his fear. The scientist died in the age of 90 years. Even if he lived so long, he never remembered that there will be no forests in any cities.

Many explorers such as Minroecol, Rossetery, Anudert, Manjester, Gemsome, Clorid, Winser etc came to this city. Minroecol was an explorer from Washington D.C. He came to explore China to be famous. so one fine day he was sitting in his bedroom for having a change in getting fresh air. He went out to get some water to drink as he was very thirsty for just sitting. He asked the people about the city. A citizen named Sesen told him that the people living in here are very afraid of wild animals especially a Lynx. He replied, why are they scared about them, are they from China? I heard that the people of China are very brave and strong by practicing kung-fu. Sesen replied: You are absolutely right but only in the city of Beijing the people are like this. Minroecol got his first research about Beijing. He told in his mind: I am going to be famous because of this important research because nobody in this world knew about this before. He was not serious because he only loved to be famous and popular. He went and asked every citizen of the city about Beijing but for once everyone told the same thing. Then he was not sure that he will be famous. He will be ashamed when he shows only one fact about the Chinese. The next day he was so sleepy and he couldn't wake up. He was sleeping and yawning in his bed. Minutes later the people of Beijing surrounded his house and asked him, are you scared of wild animals? He replied tiredly, no I am not at all scared of wild animals. They are just tiny and large creatures that can't do anything to us. The people of Beijing explained to him more and more but he would not listen to what they said because he was brave as a falcon. The people of Beijing became angry and told him this is the last warning to be scared of wild animals. He only tried to stop their listening.

One day he went to visit the zoo in Beijing where the people were not scared of wild animals. He told in his mind: These people are so foolish because of being scared of animals. I am having one doubt. If they are afraid of wild animals, then how did they bring the animals to the zoo. At that time he was near a tunnel where he saw the people coming and going. He thought to ask any man or woman about his doubt. He saw a man and shouted, Hey wait! He was going to the man but he slipped by touching a stone on his foot on the ground. When he stood up, he saw a book on his right side. That book described the whole story about the people of Beijing. There was unwanted things added in the book and for once even he became scared about the wild animals. He ran back to his house and slept again as he was a sleepy human being. At the evening, the people surrounded him again. He told the people of Beijing that he is also afraid of wild animals. Then the people of Beijing went back to their houses.

Later Minroecol was suffering from a problem called sealmoritor. This disease is caused because of fear and many people got this type of problem before and died. Minroecol suffered too much and a few hours later he died. Because of this disease he died soon at the age of 29. At A.D 478 the bravest explorer Fenerocolin came to the city. When he died at the age of 74, a few minutes before that, he was not scared of wild animals at all because he faced this problem long before at the of 16 and he tried a lot to control this problem. Then a few years later there came a very brave child who was much more brave than the old scientist. He was interested to visit many places to explore nature. This is the fourth time he is visiting China. In the city, all people were doing their job and selling things from their house. Every house was having a big window to sell things. They don't go out and buy things. They threw or passed house to house to buy or sell things. The brave child was amazed and thinking why are they doing things like this. He made a shelter made by bamboo sticks and palms of coconut trees. He was thinking that they may be scared of something. The brave child never saw people like this before and so he became confused. In the morning the brave child asked the people why are they doing this. Then they told him about their problem. Later the child told them there will be no forests in any cities. Then they were very happy and then they stopped their foolish work. At that time there was a child called himm and he was the first to remember to ask the brave child's name but he was lazy to ask so he didn't ask his name. The brave child then wrote about this people's behavior and knowledge in his research explore book. Then 2 days later the people of the city asked his name. Then he replied that his name was Nandanan but actually his name was Cittycat. He didn't tell them his real name because he didn't like them to know his name or make his name popular.

Part: II

One day, a very greedy hunter came with a box with six wheels and inside it there was a very ferocious and dangerous Lynx. He was trying to watch what is going on in the people's houses. As he is lucky that there are only less population at Beijing but it took more than 1 hr to finish looking. At that time, all the people were sleeping inside their shelters. But he was not only a hunter, he was also a thief. He opened the box and ran away. The Lynx roared and then the roar woke up everyone in the city. When they saw the ferocious Lynx, all the people belonging to the city locked up their doors but the brave child was very brave and what he did was he threw a lot of meat near the Lynx. The Lynx ate up all the meat and fell asleep. But for a moment the children came outside but the people did not come outside because they got the fear again. The elder people warned the children not to go near and they also scolded Cittycat. Cittycat called them again and again but they never came outside. Then he told to come through that side it would be easier. He also added, come from your balcony and who is at the other side must jump through each house balcony and come. When all the people came outside he told them to follow him to the planfell mountain. Then the brave child invented a vehicle made of wood with total concentration in the planfell mountain. The vehicle was very big so all the people could sit there. Then he traveled with the people of Beijing to Shanghai. At the journey, the people met domestic animals, unseen plants and many other things that they have never seen before. The journey to shanghai was a great Adventure and the people talked to each other and experienced a long travel for the first time in their life time. Then after reaching shanghai there they had a celebration and there the brave child told them his real name. Cittycat's experience with the people of Beijing was then changed into a story that was liked by the people of Beijing and Cittycat. This experience was Cittycat's most favorite Adventure and he made the people brave and courageous. He also became a master for young children. Cittycat ignored the bad qualities of the people and responded to them in a good manner. Many people started Agriculture and farming while some became novelists and teachers. Cittycat finished the visit to Beijing and now he is going to visit Tokyo in Japan. The people told him goodbye and it was the most important thing for Cittycat. Then 44 years later the people and children had grown up. They became brave and lived happily ever after.
