A Boy Saves the Community

There lived a young worrier from our village. This young boy grew up a brave person than any other person in the village. Something very extraordinary this young boy could predict things that were bound to happen in future. Many people thought that he was a magician, other referred to him as a witchdoctor, but no one could exactly trace him well since even in his lineage no one had such powers. At an age of six he killed a lion and he also happened to kill a leopard before. This made villagers  both to admire and fear this young boy.

It came a day when the villager woke up early in the morning just to realise that their village had been ransacked. No one could tell who the people were. The week later it also happened and this seemed to worry the villagers. It was after this that the elder people in the village decided to discuss about this issue.l Frustrating enough no one could ever reach the solution. This young boy filled with pity appeared before the elders and requested to be granted the duty of catching the thieves. The villagers hesitated since the boy was too young to the task.After a while they opted to grant this duty to him. The following morning, we could not tell what had happened but we just found thugs stranded in the field. When the boy was asked how h managed to catch the thugs, he said that it all needed courage and wisdom. We thanked this boy because he had by then said the villagers from greatest enemy of their land.
