It was a typical day with the pack of lions, we were hunting for food, It was late June in the African Savannah.

It was  a great day to lie in the sun, we were just minding our own business, we were lying next to the river,  when we noticed some buffalo walking towards us. We had found lunch, or maybe it found us.  We started to move closer and closer... BOOM!!! The chase was on, my friend managed to catch a calf, who got away but fell  in the water.  The smell of lunch was the best smell all day.

We started to drag the buffalo calf out of the water when… SNAP!!  A crocodile interrupted our meal,  I was not happy with him. We tried to take it from him, it was tug war and the winner gets lunch. We were able to keep the calf, but after that the  buffalo had came back,

Ferocious and back for revenge, it was another battle and was one million to ten, we were outnumbered.

Will we ever get lunch? I thought.

We tried to stand our ground by fighting and not moving, but there were too many, the calf got away back to its herd. My pride and I felt sad and ashamed when we got kicked by our own food and went flying 5 metres across into the river. But after the end of the day we got something else to eat. The calf did taste nice though.

But even though we got food at the end of the day, I was angry that our food bossed us around! So now my pride and I wanted revenge...
