The stork has legs and a long neck. Strong and wide wings so that he is able to fly high and far. Her favorite food is frogs. Besides, he likes grasshoppers, caterpillars trees, and snails. The stork friends with the monkey. The stork often help look for the monkey lice. If traveling far, the storks usually fly the apes. However, the apes are cunning and treacherous always wanted enaknya only.
Once the monkey ask the crane to catch fish in a pond. While the crane work, the monkeys ate and were satisfied. Once completed, the heron just got a little part, because most had been hidden in advance by the apes. Thus for the treatment, the stork has certainly hurt. But not to disconnect. They seem to get along. Until one day the monkey wants to deceive the stork again. The monkey wanted to go to the island's famous Medang sawonya fruit. But how to get there because apes sure none of his friends are willing to lend a boat to him. The only hope is the stork. He was looking for a sense of how that the stork will fly to the island Medang.
At the time of famine the citizens stork, the heron going to invite two Medang Island. The monkeys on the island Medang recalled that there must be a frog that much, because the island was uninhabited. Without the slightest suspicion, the stork does not reject the offer of an ape. Thus was determined the day of their departure. Both departed hopefully earn a decent living on the other side of the island. "Stork friend," said the ape. "Once Medang later I will make a boat out of clay". "Do apes now so good at so that it can make a boat?" Asked the crane with a tone of disbelief.
"For a long time I went to the land of smart people learn to make a boat. Now I can only make a boat out of clay ", replied the ape. "What is important, the crane had to help me collect the clay," continued the ape.
In accordance with the agreement, one day the stork leave the monkey flew to the island Medang expectations. After a while the fly, it is seen from a distance Medang verdant island. On the back of the crane, the monkey had imagined sapodilla fruit fragrant and sweet. The monkeys sent the crane fly faster. But, alas. The crane was exhausted, unable to fly faster. Moreover, the monkeys constantly invites conversation while sitting on the back of the good storks. With the remaining power there, they came to the island Medang. Panting with the stork landed safely. They took a break to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the island silent.
While the crane is still exhausted after flying with the body burden of heavy monkeys. The monkey was already on the sapodilla tree with a radiant face. He jumped from the sapodilla tree that the sapodilla tree to another. His mouth chewing sapodilla fruit that ripen without stopping. Frog estimated abundance no one else. Forced the stork just lie down and rest. Sesekal, he caught a small crab that passes nearby. However, because of the unusual heron eating crab, stomach feels a bit queasy. Meanwhile, the monkey had been sleeping in the trees. His stomach looks blue sign of glut.
After the monkeys wake, said the stork, "the monkey, you have been satisfied here. The food is plentiful. Frogs and grasshoppers that you promised not here. Therefore, I could not tingggal here. I will return to my hometown. With sapodilla fruit that is abundant here, you can live seven generations. Therefore, tomorrow I will go home. I would have told the citizens of your brown monkey forest.
"Do not be so," said the ape. "How can I live alone here."
"But I could not live in an area without a frog like this," replied the stork a bit annoyed.
"Then all right. Let fly me go home with you, "said the ape. "I'm sorry the apes, yet so recovered my wings to fly to the body burden. Never fly with the monkey. Flying itself is not necessarily strong. "
"Then we'll wait until you recover its strength." The stork replied, "How could I have to wait. What should I eat? What do I have to die of hunger here while you have sapodilla fruit abundant? I guess you can go home alone by boat. You can make the boat. "
The monkeys bowed in shame. He remembered his lies. Actually she had little expertise to make a boat. However, because of embarrassment to the heron, he said, "Then help me look for clay. Later my forge. "
Long story short, the boat was finished. They were pushed into the sea, and they went both of them. The monkey boat with feeling scared.
Occasionally, the boat was hit by waves. The ape's face became pale. Instead, the stork always sing: "Curcur humic, curcur hurnat, when crushed I survived, I survived when crushed."
Of course, the crane can fly if the boat was destroyed buffeted by the waves. Possibility to disintegrate do exist, because the boat was only made of clay by apes who are not experts.
Meanwhile, they have sailed far out to sea. Sumbawa island as his hometown has been visible from a distance. Suddenly a storm blew loudly. Rain was falling thickly. Rolling ocean waves hit their boat. In a short time, the boat was shattered. The stork flew, while the apes painstakingly trying to swim. However, the small body is unable to fight strong currents and ocean waves growing magnitude raged. Finally, the dead monkey swallowed ocean waves.
Seas calmed. Nun in the sky looks the stork flew quietly towards his hometown.
