a fable (:
Written by Lucia hinojosa (me) and Julio Cesar Campos
There was a time where the world was in a perpetual night. It was a darkness in which the entire world was ruled by devils and the God Catupik. Without sun, all the other animals have to live hidden and terrified. All the animals were hoping that one day they could find light and peace, but they knew that first they have to defeat the evil army of Catupik.
Among all the animals and living things there was a brave dog, named Cod that all what he wanted was peace and harmony. He began to express his ideas about having a new world with his brothers and sisters. Little by little more brothers and sisters started to listen to him. After a while he started to being respected by all living things and earned the unwanted title of ‘leader’. Several some months passed and all brothers and sisters decided to attack Catupik and his army, but Cod stop them.
“If we attack Catupik spontaneously and without a plan, many of us will die and maybe we will lose” Cog said “We must train and plan very well in a way to defeat Catupik”.
So then Cog started to form an army conformed by all the living things. However, there were some living things that were weak and that Cog knew that if they went into battle, they will die. Cod gathered all the ones that he knew can died in battle and told them that he doesn’t wanted brothers and sisters to die in the battlefield. Even though, he tried to convince them in a lot of ways, some of them just wanted to be in the fight. So they kept training for months and years, to become stronger and to learn battle skills that will help them defeat their foes.
One night the cats betrayed the animals going against Catupik and telling all what they had plan. When Cod notice that all the cats went to Catupik’s side, he felt the obligated to act immediately and start the war. Even though he was a afraid because after dogs and cats where the best warriors their army had, he went to fight with all the dogs and his brothers and sisters against Catupik and his army.
The fight lasted 4 years. In these 4 years many things happened including Cod’s death almost at the end of the war. After Cod died all living things started worship him as God. Pray to Cod that gave the entire living things strength to keep going and finally defeat Catupik. When Catupik was defeated and send to the underworld the sun came up and the darkness went away, letting that all living things could get out of that places where they were hidden. This is the way how Cod and his brothers and sisters free the world of the darkness they stood together until the very end because that is how brothers and sisters are, and that is how he world we know today was made.
