Once upon a time, there was a stork, living a peaceful life in a forest inside his den near a really deep cliff. One day, the stork was visited by a fox. 

  "Where do you come from?" the stork asks.  

   "I came from a far away place, m'boy. As a matter of fact, I happen to be a treasure hunter." the fox replied.  

  "Oooh, so you're a treasure hunter?" the stork asks.   

  "Yes, I've traveled miles and miles, and now I think I've spotted a treasure around here." the fox answered.  

   "Where is it?" the stork asked impatiently.

   "It's here, right in the bottom of the cliff. A treasure so great it will last generations." the fox replied.   

The stork was so happy he rushed out of his den. "But wait," the fox shouted. "You need to do a task, because that cliff was enchanted with a spell." 

   "Ok, what's the task?"ask the stork.  

  "You have to eat big banquets of food for three days. You don't want to look cheap when get the treasure, eh?" said the fox.  

The stork, without thinking twice, agree with the fox. For three days, the stork eat grand banquets of food. He ate and enjoyed it so much he didn't notice he's getting fatter and fatter day after day. On the third day, the stork was so fat he can barely see his foot. The fox visited again 

  "Oh my, you're really REALLY fat and ready!" the fox exclaimed.  

  "You think so?" ask the stork.   

 The fox pushed the stork to the edge of the cliff. "I don't think it's sAAAAAAAAAAA-" the stork screamed as he struggles to float by his small wings. But everything is useless, his wings cannot support his weight and he fall into the dark abyss. The stork hoped he will survive the fall, but he's really out of luck, because under him is a really sharp rock. He plunged his chest straight into the rock, covering his white feathers with red blood. He screamed, he screamed so loudly the rocks tremble and fall upon him, ending his misery. Back at the surface, the fox left with an evil grin on his face.

"Another day, another victim of stupidity and greed..." the fox whispered...   quietly
