The Red Stone

There was a little white rabbit that lived under a tree, and one day he woke up after he heard a very strange sound, and when he came out of the tree he realized that there was nothing left, all the things were destroyed and you could see all the other creatures screaming and running to random directions. After he saw this, he remembered that when he was little his grandpa told him a story about the end of the world, and also told him that when the world started to end, he would need to find the red stone, and that this stone would be hidden in the coldest place of the world, so he thought about the Antarctic, he needed to find the way to get there. He started to jump through the different places in order to get there, and when  he was crossing an old town he was surprised by a cat, so the cat asked him where he was going, so he told the cat he was going to the Antarctic to find the solution for the end of the world, and the cat just laughed at the rabbit and told him that he was crazy, and that he would not be able to get there, so the rabbit that believed in himself got away from the cat and kept jumping, after he passed a lot of cities he found out that he needed to cross the ocean and there, there was an eagle that asked the rabbit what he was doing and the rabbit said he needed to cross the ocean to find a solution for the end of the world, and the eagle told the rabbit that it was impossible to do that, and that there is no solution, after this, the rabbit started to think that maybe there is no solution, but after a moment he remembered that if you want you can, then a penguin came to the edge and the rabbit asked to the penguin if the he could help him, and the penguin saw the rabbit so convinced, that the penguin told him that he could help him, but that he will only get the rabbit to the other side, but that he was not going to help him there. When the rabbit arrived to the Antarctic he started to feel cold and at the distance there was a polar bear that started laughing about the rabbit, so the rabbit kept jumping and found a little old coat to cover himself, so he took it and kept jumping, and when the rabbit was in the middle of nowhere he saw a red light that came from a mountain. He started jumping to get there but it was so hard, then he saw a bird that looked friendly so he asked him for help, and the bird helped the rabbit to get to the top. And after all the difficulties that the rabbit faced, he was finally at the top, so the rabbit took the red stone and raised it to the sky, and that was the moment when all started to change.

And the moral of the story is that you can be able to accomplish the things that you propose to yourself, no matter what the others think.
