The Turtle and The Rabbit

You have heard of the story of the tortoise and the hare. Here is the other made up story of the turtle and the rabbit.

As they have heard the victorious stories of the tortoise's win over the hare, rabbit goes to race the turtle, knowing that the turtle is much faster than the tortoise and the hare is much faster than the rabbit in terms of speed.

Rabbit desires to win back what was lost. On the day of the race, in the presence of many witnesses, the race began with the flag off. Turtle moved briskly while rabbit hopped frantically. It was a close race as turtle took the lead.

After a long distance with both competitors they began to feel the exhaustion creeping into their tired bodies. Soon rabbit stopped to catch his breath and turtle turned and also stopped to catch his breath as well. Then rabbit moved towards turtle.

Turtle spoke pantingly as rabbit halted to listen what he has to say. ...


At the finishing line, the crowd roared and cheered in enthusiasm as both racing animals moved in step. Both crossed the finishing line and smiled at each other while their fans celebrated their victorious race.
