My name is Gobabo and this is my story....

[MrHyms]

(The following is based on true events......)



I once live with tribe in village, but Bad Men come and we have to run-run or die.

Finally we safe. We stop. 5 of us in mountains. Hiding in rain.

I look at faces. My new family.

Red - he quick. He build fire and walls to keep us safe. Sometimes he breathe bad, but white helps.

Borne - he strong. He carry things around camp and pull shiny pieces from mountain rocks.

White - he old. He make plants grow and heals hurts. He never smile.

Lumi - he furry. Four legs and clever eyes. My friend. My Brother.

Buffalo - he big. He nasty. He carry big club and growl at me.


I not quick or strong or old or furry or big.


But I clever. I know which berries make sick. I know how to make hot meats and grow plants. I will keep my family fed and good.


And I never fight. I never hit. I never shoot. I NEVER kill.

Buffalo hate me because this.



////////////////////////////////////////////


We start new village in mountains. Red build me special fire table for making foods and I grow and clean and cook and grow.

Buffalo take Red away and later come back with dead boar. So sad I cry.

Buffalo laughing. Makes me slice and cook it for him. I sneak special berries in and Buffalo turn white and fall down.

White drag him to hut and make better. I cry again in Lumi fur.


///////////////////////////////////////////

Bad Man come in the night. I hide in cave with Lumi. Red and Borne shoot many arrows but miss.

Buffalo wake. Bufallo hits Bad Man with club. Again. Again. Again. Again.

Bad Man fall down and not move. Buffalo has fire in eyes. I stay hide.

//////////////////////////////////////////

Red make cave with walls and door, and White tell me carry Bad Man in there.

Bad Man hurting so I try make better. I feed good berries and sing song.

Bad Man cries. Maybe he not Bad.

///////////////////////////////////////////


Rain come and metal fire box fall from sky.

Red go look. Red come back with Broken Man. Shiny clothes. White tell me put with Bad Man.

Buffalo laugh. Buffalo say "Meat for winter".

I try fix Broken Man. Bad Man tell me story of his family whilst Lumi washes him.

I sure Bad Man not Bad....

/////////////////////////////////////////

Broken Man screaming. White say leg has sick in it and will die.

I feed and sing to Broken Man. White sharpen knife and tell me to go.

I hear Notbad Man crying all night.

////////////////////////////////////////

Buffalo say take Broken Man far away. I find square cave near river and lie him down. I sad.

Red make me metal cave for sleep. Make me safe.

Notbadman smile now when I feed him, but this make Buffalo angry so I try sneak.

///////////////////////////////////////

Bufallo has fire eyes. Bufallo says "Hungry for boar". Bufallo runs out of village and hits boar with club. Again. Again.

Boar is screaming. More boar come. Too many boar.

I hide in metal cave.

Red and White and Borne take spear and bow and knife and try to fight. Too many boar.

I cry. Lumi runs to fight. Too many boar.

Notbadman break door and runs. But. Too. Many. Boar.

I hide and cry and hide and cry.

I alone.

//////////////////////////////////////

Many men come. Clothes strange. Sticks that throw fire at boars. Boars die.

Men kind. Men give medicine. Men swap shiny rocks for new fourlegs. But men leave.

I carry family to the Dead place. I very sad.

I lie Bufallo down - this make me smile.

I clean and clean and grow and cook and clean and cry. New fourlegs chase rabbits. No love yet.

Bad Man bring fire to plants. All my growing burns. All family place burns.



Foodhouse burns.

I see fire. I feel fire. I breath fire.

I run from foodhouse. Bad Man chase.

New fourlegs runs through fire and bites BadMan.

Bad Man falls down. Fire eats Bad Man.

Fourlegs burns. Lies down. Stays down.

I hide and cry and hide and cry.

I alone.
