The Ninja Lizard

It was a fine day in the forest, the bunnies hopping and scavenging for food, and the owls sleeping, waiting for dusk, to awaken. One particular lizard in the forest wasn’t like the others. It was always the odd one out for choosing fight instead of flight. The lizard had never faced any certain danger, but always tried to make itself prepared for anything. “You won’t stand a chance to a predator ten times your own size!” The others would say. This lizard would not care about comments like this, until one day, the one taking place right now. A mouse had came and thought the lizard would be an easy meal, and to the mouse’s surprise, the lizard did not fight, but instead hung on a branch and stared into its eyes. The mouse was not intimidated, but the lizard wasn’t either. The mouse pounced on the lizard! But the lizard dodged it and ran onto its back! The lizard wrapped its arms around the mouse’s neck until it started to try to escape! The lizard let go and ran away. This was the first fight that the lizard had experienced, and from then on, he knew he was able to fight. This lizard would be known to all lizards of the forest. His name, was Ninja Lizard.
