Once upon a time. . . . .
God told aaaaallll the animals. . . ."I'm inviting you to a banquet so ""DON'T!"" be late!" Hearing that, The mischievous rat lied to his neighbor the cat, and told him the banquet would be the day AFTER tomorrow. Also hearing this, The duck, whom hates lies, was on her way to tell The Cat the real date of the banquet (which was given by the Rabbit), but all the selfish cat did was brush her off. However, the next day, the rat rode on the back of the cow and nimbly landed before the banquet. After him followed the Ox, the Tiger, the Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Boar. Everyone had such a wonderful time! All except for the selfish cat who was TRICKED and the Duck who became a victim of self-denial. She began questioning even the slightest things. ..."Why didn't God invite ME to the banquet?" *The Duck begins to cry* "I-I'm part of the zodiac too, right?" But, meanwhile, The Cat was happily asleep unaware of his misery...The duck...was left alone in an alley crying in a corner to be never, ever, invited. . . . . . . Legend has it. . . . she would stay there for all eternity.
