Long long time ago somewhere deep in jungle there was mysterious tribe of natural creatures, which can transform themselves to specific animals. Their animal formes were based on their life styles, attitudes and natures. The most interesting thing about them was that they can talk to each other even when they are different animals and they didn't eat each other. In this tribe there was group of antilopes. And the main character of the story is one of mentioned antilopes. She was funny and brave. Everyone likes her and she likes everyone, specificaly one antilope- boy. He was handsome and popular. They often talked to each other. They were laughing and making long eye contacts whole days. She tought that he maybe loves her like she loves him. Oe day, when she woke up it was early and everyone was asleep so she decided to go for a walk by herself. When she came back she saw all the antilopes talking about something and she saw something what make her heart bite to million bites. Her long years crush was there with another antilope introducing her like 'his girlfriend'. She was sad and mad at the same time she started running and didn't stop until she ran to lake.
She looked at her reflection and then started softly crying. Why he didn't choose her? In what is the another antilope better?
These questions were running through her head. Suddenly an old eagle sat next to her. It was protector of their tribe, but she tought that it was just myth because noone ever seen him. „Are you okay my dear child ?" asked the eagle. „No..."she replied and cried even harder. „ I know how it feels, but sometimes we need hard times and problems because of them we became stronger." said Eagle and after that he flew to the sky and dissapeared. After this the antilope took a deep breath and roared softly. She felt energy pulsing through her whole body. She ran to the highest hill of the jungle and closed her eyes. Then from her mouth came strong roar. Echo of her roar symbolising her power and confidence sounded through whole jungle. She decided to return to the tribe. Everyone who saw her  bowed on their knees as symbol of trust and loyality. That was the day when she became the Queen and Protector of the jungle. That night she came back to the lake and looked at her reflection again. It wasn't broken antilope anymore. Now there was standing beautifull golden lioness. The Eagle appeared besides her again. „I am proud of you my child. You are now protector of the jungle. My time here is over and now i must go. I hope i will meet you again one day on neverending meadows." with those words the eagle dissapeared again and new queen came to her new home. She laied under the oldest tree in her new kingdom. She softly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
