The Western Jungle is separated into 2 sections. Section 1 is controlled by the meat lovers, such as tigers, wolves, and lions. Section 2 is controlled by the wood creatures, like squirrels, foxes, and bears. Section 1 is known as Dino Row because any animal that enters is bound to be extinct. The young bears, led by Troy are the only pack from Section 2 that dared to enter Section 1. Troy followed by Marty, Oscar, and Jaclyn, bolted into the high grass of  Section 1.
  “Follow me,” Troy stated as he motioned them towards the grass.
  “Isn’t this where Marco, the Lion King, lives?” Oscar questioned. Troy ignored Oscar and continued into the grass. The Younglings stopped short as Troy cried a loud screech like Mariah Kitty. Time passed and Troy didn’t return. The Younglings were alone in the most dangerous part of the jungle. Section 1 is dangerous because there were bloodthirsty-ferocious animals that lingered around waiting for their next meal. The grass swayed back and forth and Marco approached the Younglings slowly, his bright mane flowing with the wind, with a large piece of bear fur clenched between his razor sharp teeth. Before he could speak Marty, Oscar, and Jaclyn sprinted through the field, running for their lives. Before they knew it they were surrounded by hyenas who were watching them from close by.
  “Leave them be!” roared Marco as the hyenas went silent and ran away. “Come now,” he ordered. Marty explained to Jaclyn and Oscar that everything will be okay as they followed Marco 20 paws behind. He took them to his den a top the large hill in the center of the Jungle.
   “What are you going to do with us?” Cried Jaclyn.
  “I am going to cook you up and eat you,” Marco laughed with a sarcastic tone.
  “Oh my gorilla!” Oscar gulped, falling to the ground.
  “Parrot told me that Marco was not only the king of the Section, but he is the most vicious animal in the jungle,” Oscar mumbled to Jaclyn.
  The winter came fast and frozen crystals flew around freezing everything it touched. The air was cold, and many animals were dying because of starvation and, or freezing to death. Luckily, every single night Marco brought leopard skin blankets for the Younglings. He shared his prey with them. He kept them close so no other animal could harm them.
  “I think he is trying to get us to let our guard down, so he can eat us,” whispered Oscar.
  ***
   A few years past and nothing changed, Marco still treated the Younglings like they were his own. The Younglings were no longer young and Marco became very old and sick. Before he died, Marty, Oscar, and Jaclyn approached him on his dying grass.
  “Why did you not eat us?” Jaclyn questioned.
  “My intentions were never to harm you, but to protect you from the dangers of the Jungle,” he said with his last breath.
   The Younglings returned to Section 3 and were very thankful for what Marco did for them. After that they all went their separate ways, but they still told the story of how the “vicious” Marco was a kind hearted lion.
