“Is fine daddy! I won’t go down there!” Elephant shouted back, sprinting as fast as it could (which was at jogging speed of a horse). Sticking his head into the clean water, whilst drinking it, he saw Crocodile about 1 metre away. “Phew!” he thought.

On Friday evening, Elephant snuck out and meandered to the waterhole with its short, stubby nose, ready to sniff out Crocodile. Jumping out of the bushes, was the Rhino. It trotted over to Elephant. In a grand tone, Rhino stated, “Good evening Elephant! I do hope your parents know your out here on your own. I would be terribly worried if I were them.
“Yes, its fine. They know I’m out here walking around the spooky, dark grasslands!” Elephant lied.
“Ok just checking! By the way… the Crocodiles come out at night in the water to catch prey. Don’t go near the bank!” responded Rhino.
Ignoring Rhino, Elephant had a peaceful drink at the bank, listening to crickets in the grass and watching the crystal clear water.

As quick as a flash, Crocodile snapped up at Elephant. With quick reactions, Elephant moved his face out of the way; the crocodile got hold of its nose. Pulling and pulling, it was like Crocodile would never let go. After a minute, his nose was as long as Pinocchio; Crocodile let go and swam away.
