A Native Polar

(Based on the story brother bear)

It was a very bitter morning in a native part of America. The snow was covering the tops of most of the mountains and many of the birds had migrated to get some warm weather elsewhere. A young boy, Toku, and his brother were walking through the woods to the lake to catch their breakfast - fish. They caught many fish, big and small, for them and the rest of their tribe, and decided to hang the basket fall of them on a tree branch while they went for a wash in the lake. The tribe that the boys belonged to were a tribe that believed once you had died your soul would be lifted to the spirits and that’s where you would stay - in peace with not only humans but animals also.

     However Toku had not tied the basket to the branch very well and after a while it fell to the ground, leaving all the fish scattered every where and jumping around trying to stay alive. Soon after Toku's other brother came along to join them, however he stopped and saw that all of the fish had been taken and next to it was a paw print that was fresh and deep into the ground. The brother shouted at his brothers and told them to get out of the water. As the two brothers approached the eldest they could see he was very angry and so they started to panic. Soon enough the brothers had learnt that a bear had eaten their fish that was on the ground, they could tell by the paw print on the mud. Both of the brothers blamed Toku, as he was the one who didn’t tie the basket right. Therefore, Toku decided that he would go after the bear and retrieve the basket that they had all made themselves and maybe retrieve some, if not most of the fish they had caught earlier that morning. So of he went following the bears footprints along with his spear in his right hand, however little did Toku know that his eldest brother was following him (to make sure he was safe) and that also that this bear was no ordinary bear, it was a polar bear, much more ferocious and more powerful than any normal bear.

     Toku followed the prints as they led up to the cold, icy mountaintops. He started to worry a bit as many men had died up here from the cold or from the avalanches that happen frequently, however he was determined to get the basket and fish back just to prove his brothers wrong. When he finally got to the top, Toku could see the bear sitting eating away at the fish. He was shocked to find out it was a polar bear, but that didn’t stop him and so he tiptoed quietly towards it anyway. However the polar ...
