A Friend in Need is a Friend Indeed

complete the story Myna was flying home one evening. After a lot of effort she had finally found a delicious worm. It was late evening and her young ones would be waiting eagerly for their dinner. Suddenly Myna heard a shrill scream. It was Mr. Ant, calling out for help. He had fallen into a stream and was struggling to keep afloat.
Myna flew down to see if she could help Mr. Ant. She realized that she could save him. All she had to do was throw Mr. Ant a lifeline and haul him up to safety. But if she opened her beak to pick up a string, the hard-found worm would fall out. Besides it was getting late. On the other hand, if she left Mr. Ant in the stream, he would surely die.

Mr. Ant tried to catch hold of the worm but it was too slippery. Terrified that he may not be saved after all, he fainted. Now the worm in Myna's beak was still alive. He knew that he was on a rescue mission and he caught hold of the ant quickly before the tide could carry it away. "Go on Myna!"-he shouted."Pull us out!"And Myna pulled Mr. Ant out. Once out of the water, Mr. Ant regained his conciousness. When he heard of their bravery, Mr. Ant thanked them both. And then he said,"Why Myna! Are you going to eat Mr. Worm?" Myna nodded. "Don't Myna, don't!"-said Mr. Ant. "Spare Mr. Worm's life. After all, he helped me. If he wouldn't have caught my hand, I would have died." Myna replied,"I know, Mr. Ant. But what can I do? My babies are starving to death and I got Mr. Worm with difficulty." "But I can help you in that."-said Mr. Ant." I will give you grains instead of Mr. Worm. Not only today, but I will give grains everyday so that you don't have to eat Mr. Worm." Myna agreed and from then onwards, they lived happily ever after.

Mr. Ant was Myna's friend and Myna could not let him die in front of her eyes. she looked here and there but no one was there to help. Besides Myna had no time to spare. Myna started thinking fast. If she helped Mr. Ant, her babies will die of hunger and she could not turn away when her friend was in trouble. At last Myna decided what to do. She took a deep breath and threw aside the worm. Then quickly she picked a leaf from under a tree and threw it in the water. Mr. Ant climbed on the leaf and Myna pulled the leaf out. GREAT RELIEF! Mr Ant thanked Myna. But Myna was looking sad and Mr Ant knew that she had no food for her babies that's why she was so unhappy. so Mr Ant repaid Myna by giving her half the friuts and grains he had stored for the winter. Myna was very delighted and from that day Myna and Mr Ant became best friends. It is true that A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND INDEED.

Next she flapped her wings to guide the leaf to the shore. On reaching the shore Mr.Ant thanked Myna and promised that he would help her, if any need ever arised. Myna thought 'what could a ant ever help her in'. However she politely smiled at Mr.Ant and flew away to find food for her starving babies. Many days later a hunter came to the forest. He saw Myna sleeping in her nest with her babies. He started to climb the tree to catch Myna. Mr. Ant was walking along when he saw the hunter climbing the tree to catch Myna. He ran up the tree and bit the leg of the hunter. The pain in the leg made the hunter scream, miss his footing and he fell down the tree. The commotion meanwhile aroused Myna who looked down to see a hunter slowly cursing and limping away. Mrs. Owl who lived in the next tree told Myna about the whole incident. Myna went to Mr.Ant and thanked him and praised him for his bravery. Mr.Ant told Myna that he was just repaying his debt for saving his life earlier. So a friend in need is a friend indeed.

The myna now being 'between the devil and the deep blue sea' could not think of what to do. Looking around she found no one and then thought would find some other food for her babies but at that point of time it was necessary to save Mr. Ant. So she threw the worm that she was holding between her beak and at once started rummaging for a leaf. On finding one, she threw it for Mr. Ant's help. She then pulled him out and Mr. Ant thanked her for saving his life. This reminds us of the proverb "A FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND IN DEED".

Mr. Ant saw the hunter and before he could shoot Myna Mr. Ant went and bit him on his leg the hunter gave a loud cry.

Ariel Smith

Mr.Ant was in trouble and she helped two different kinds of animals: her young ones and Mr.Ant. She did a kind thing and also saved two lives: her young birds and Mr.Ant. What if she didn't help Mr.Ant and she flew right by? Well Mr. Ant would have died and she would not have many friends that would trust her to help them so why would they help her if she was in trouble!?

Okeechobee

So the bird figured "Oh well, those stupid ants bite me all the time anyways..."

Michael Dennison

So Myna did the selfless thing and released the worm - lucky worm! She then flew down and rescued Mr. Ant. After being deposited on the bank, Mr. Ant thanked Myna and being a Modern American, went off to continue gathering grain. Myna called out, "Mr. Ant! Wait! How will I feed my children?" But, Mr.Ant, being too focused on his own "life" scarcely heard her. So we see how this fine parable is with today's "civilised" ( I use the term loosely...) Modern people (American and other societys). Someone who needs something will appear to be your "best friend" until they get what they want from you. Thereafter, unless they again need something from you, they scarcely know you or are too "busy" to even acknowledge you or your need. A sad turn for the "Modern" world!

Ant asked the reason and she told everything so ant decided to give the food which was reserved for winter and the myna was happy and thanked the ant and took the food and flew away. This is a true story for a friend in need is a friend in deed.

anna

She then thought of a brillant idea. She put the worm on a leaf and threw the leaf into the water. The leaf floated and the worm could not escape. She then plucked out the branch and told Mr ant to hold on to the branch. Mr ant held on to the branch and Myna pulled him out. Mr ant thanked her and went home. As for Myna, she picked up the worm from the leaf and then flew home.
