Stealing honey

Alfin really wanted to taste honey but it seemed impossible until all the bees go out of their hive and let him take the honey, but suddenly he got an idea to steal the honey if he got successful he would be able to steal all the honey. So he went to prepare for his idea, he prepared pouches for the honey and found a suitable spot below the tree to start his plan.

Alfin was going to start a fire below the tree which will create smoke and which will get all the bees out of their hive and he will then go inside the hive to steal all the honey. The hard part was to start the fire, he started a small fire and made a torch and started putting fire on all the things that could burn easily and in a hour the fire became so big that it went out of control.

Bees started evacuating, it took quite some time but finally the hive was empty but the fire was spreading very fast. Alfin himself got very less time, he started climbing tree and went inside the hive and started searching for honey.

Hive was like a maze and the only thing he could rely to find honey was his sense of smell which was of now no use because of all the smoke. So Alfin made an assumption that the honey should be in the center of the hive, he started breaking the walls of hive and started running towards the center as the fire was spreading very fast and he himself would not be able to get away from fire.

When Alfin finally reached the center he was disappointed that there was so less honey, for which he took so much risk and his escape was still in question. The honey was less than a liter, he wasted no time and stored all the honey without wasting a drop in a leather pouch and started running towards the exit.

Outside has become so hot that it was unbearable and the tree on which the hive was also caught fire and now Alfin realized that he has started a jungle fire which spreads very fast. Now first he had to run through the fire and then outrun it, then only he would be safe. He remembered a stream nearby here which he saw when he was following the bee, he started running towards it.

Alfin finally reached the stream, he had some minor burns on his arms and face, he ignored the pain and started running downstream as the fire was still spreading. He had to leave this area to be safe, he kept running for ten kilometers just to see the smoke coming from behind and all the insect monster were running here and there. Fire was spreading so fast that it was unbelievable, it has spread in ten kilometer radius and was still spreading.

He started running again without watching back, in between many monsters came for a fight which he killed only with a slash of his sword and kept running without even stopping for a second. When he finally ran for fifty kilometer then did he stop and watched behind just to see smoke coming from that area.

Alfin was following the stream and reached the place where the stream ends and merges with a lake which was very big and was brim water and there were less trees in this area so the fire will not spread till here so he made a decision to stay here for a while as the place had a very good scenery and had a very good living conditions.

He also thought he could get some fish monsters here, he had not eaten any water monsters till now, and there was a very good chance there would be some in this lake. He hunted a moth monster and started a fire to eat it, he was so tired right now that he immediately went to sleep after eating.

Next morning when he woke up he finally remembered about the honey for which he had caused so much ruckus, he thought of eating it right now but stopped himself and thought he should check the lake first and take bath. He went to the lake and took a bath, this region of the lake was silent and there were no water monsters here, he had to swim to the other side of the lake to confirm that there were no monsters here but suddenly he felt movement in the water.

Suddenly a crocodile monster swam towards him with its mouth wide open, Alfin had never seen a monster so dumb because the crocodile's outer skin was so tough that it would break his sword on impact and now this monster was showing him its one of its weakest part on body its open mouth was like an invitation to his sword which he took gracefully by putting his sword through its mouth to its brain. The he dragged it outside of water to have it for breakfast.
