Zorp and the Whispering Waterfall
An alien and a firefly team up to save a magical forest.
A Silent Forest

Zorp, a friendly alien with three eyes, landed his bubbly spaceship in a beautiful forest. But something was wrong. The magical flowers, which were supposed to glow, were drooping and dim. The forest was too quiet. A tiny, sad firefly named Flicker hovered nearby. "Our Whispering Waterfall has stopped," he buzzed sadly. "Without its water, the flowers can't shine."
A Brave Plan

Flicker pointed a tiny leg towards a dark cave. "The water starts in there. But... I'm scared of the dark!" Zorp smiled and his two antennae began to glow like bright, warm suns. "Don't worry! I can be your flashlight," he said kindly. Flicker's own tiny light blinked with hope. "You will? Then let's go! Together!"
The Big Rock

Inside the cave, Zorp's light made the crystal walls sparkle with rainbows. It was beautiful, not scary! They followed a dry path until they found the problem: a giant, round rock was plugging the spring, like a cork in a bottle. Zorp pushed with one hand. Nothing. He pushed with two hands. Still nothing. He pushed with all three of his strong alien arms, but the rock wouldn't move an inch.
Heave-Ho!

"I have an idea!" chirped Flicker. He zipped out of the cave and returned with hundreds of his firefly friends! The whole cave lit up like daytime. "Okay, everyone!" Zorp shouted. "Let's push together!" Zorp pushed on one side, and the huge team of fireflies pushed on the other. "Heave-ho!" they all grunted. With a loud RUMBLE, the giant rock rolled away!
The Forest Sings Again

Whoosh! Water rushed from the spring, creating the Whispering Waterfall once more. Zorp and Flicker raced outside. They watched as the thirsty flowers drank the magical water. One by one, they began to glow, filling the forest with soft light and a happy, humming sound. Zorp and Flicker looked at each other and smiled. They had saved the forest, together.
