His frogs surrounded him apologising for leaving him and

thanking him for not forgetting about them.
“There is no need for apologies now. Shall we hop along

home?” asked the King frog.
“Your majesty, what do we do with the Rich frog?” Dan asked.

“Nothing Dan, he has lost today‟s battle. That should be

punishment enough,” answered the King frog.
“If you say so, your majesty,” said Dan, but he turned to the

Rich frog and said, “If you ever try to come near their kingdom
or try to hurt them, my foot and I will find you that‟s a promise!

Do you understand frog?”
“Yes I do,” said the defeated Rich frog as he watched them

leave.

“Well that went well,” said Dan as they reached The Ponds.

“Indeed it did, but we can‟t stay here Dan, there is nothing here
for us so we will have to find another home,” said the King

frog.
“Don‟t be too hasty about leaving your majesty. I have a plan,”

said Dan. He greeted the King and the other frogs, and started
his journey home over the hill.

Days passed at The Ponds and there was no sign of Dan.

“I am afraid he is not coming back, your majesty,” said James.
“I think you might be right, James. We will have to start our

preparations. We will leave The Ponds in a day or two. Please
send the message to our fellow frogs,” said the King.

“Croak, croak, croak,” they heard from the lookout rock.

“That was three croaks; that must mean humans are coming,”

said James.
“It‟s probably another picnic. Come on James, we have a lot to
get in order,” said the King.
