A walk in the Amazon

Imagine a rainforest.

You are walking through it. You see lots of plants and buttress roots covering up a path. You cross over it, and you are standing on a dusty path. A lizard dashes across the path. You spy a tarantula climbing out of a hole in the ground. It peeks at you, and skittered back into the hole. You decide to follow the path. A streak of yellow passes the bushes near you. It must be a jaguar, you think. When you pass a purple rock, the path ends. Suddenly, you hear loud, yelling noises. You turn around to see a monkey in a tree above. A howler monkey! The monkey stares at you, and runs off. Tons of monkeys follow it, howling loudly. Watching the monkeys gives you an idea.

You grab a rope-like vine, and swing to to a platform. Surprised, you look around and you see: A desk tied with roots and vines, a chair made in the same way; a flashlight and a computer. On the desk, besides the computer, are: a basket made from vines holding pens, another basket holding paper, and a notebook. You step gingerly across the “tree house” and sit on the chair. You look in the notebook. You read the newest page. Today I saw a jaguar. It jumped in front of me. It was very nice, and it led me to a food storage. A hissing sound came from beside you, and you jump. You turn to see a snake glaring at you. You quickly try to get down. You see a ladder, and rush down it.

You continue through the forest. You spot a tapir in the darkness. It stares at you. You keep on walking, as if you didn’t see it. Then suddenly, the path split in two. One way led to a darker place, while the other one went to somewhere lighter. You follow the path that leads to a lighter place.

Meanwhile, you wonder why most of the animals are rushing. A flock of birds make a lot of noise as it passes you. A blue parrot stops on a nearby branch. It looks at you as if to say, Come with us! Follow us! You do follow it, and you see a opening. Near the opening, you see lots of animals near a crystal blue pool. A crocodile sticks its claw into the water. It splashes the water. You walk over to the pool, and you splash yourself. Suddenly, you have an urge to go out of the forest. You do. When you step into the sunshine, you hear noises. That are human. Poachers! Or so you think so. you feel lucky to be human. The rainforest was an amazing place, you think. Do you really think so?
