Zombaa

Once upon a time there was a country named Zombaa. in that country, there was a King named Elect. Everyone in that country respected that King as much as he respected them. The King was not cruel at all to the people.

One day, as usual, the King was with a little group of people hunting in the forest near the lake. Suddenly, the King found a golden ship floating in the middle of the lake. He ordered his men to go and get the boat and bring it back to land. He then said to his group, "I shall not keep this ship, but I shall give it to the people tomorrow."

The same night when the King was sleeping, someone came into the room and killed the guards and the King. When the news spread the next day that the King was dead, the people of Zombaa were very sad! They had a grand funeral in honor of the King. They also had a coronation. The new King was called Zombe.

The people felt that Zombe would be as nice as their old King - King Elect. But it turned out that Zombe was very mean. He changed all the laws of the Kingdom - like allowing stealing. He also increased the taxes that the people paid to the King.

A few months later, a young man named Caspian came into the country. After staying a few days in Zombaa, he noticed that this King was very different from the other Kings he knew about in other Kingdoms. He felt very sorry for the people of Zombaa. He felt that they were not treated well.

He approached the King and talked to him about how the King was treating his people. He told him how he should be treating his people. The King got angry and ordered his guards to arrest the young man! Caspian was sent to jail. The next day the King changed his mind and decided to give Caspian a second chance. He set him free. But the next day, Caspian came back to the King and advised him to help the people of his country. The King was extremely mad and would not let him go. Caspian was back to jail.

Somehow after a week, Caspian escaped from jail and fled the country. He went back to his homeland and brought with him a few people. He then started uniting some people of Zombaa and asked them to fight against their King. The people were very unhappy with their King. So they were persuaded very easily by Caspian. They all started picking up their weapons.

Caspian came up with a plan to fight the guards and the King at his palace. He had plenty of people to support him. He had to keep the whole thing quiet so tht it would come as a surprise to the King. The King's guards were very well trained and they never let the King out of their sight.

One fine morning just before sunrise, Caspian and his people attacked the palace from two sides at the same time. The guards were completely caught by surprise. The battle was won fairly easily by the attackers. They were able to get to the King, who was just waking up from his sleep.

The people were very happy with Caspian and they crowned him the new King of Zombaa. They shouted, "Long live King Caspian!" King Caspian ruled the country of Zombaa well and treated the people very well.
