Since i am so bored, I'll just write a short story
Note: I'll change the characters a little, just to make it more interesting.
King: High
Boy: Knas
People: all the other members here.
Soldiers: Cheehuat and Moster82(Note, they are soldiers only at the 2nd last paragraph)
There was once a king of Singapura, who was the most handsome man in the land. He grew haughty and proud,always seeking praise. He could not stand others getting praised for clever antics or acts of bravery, and his jealousy would quickly grow into hatred.
One day, a shoal of garfish came to the shores of Singapura and began attacking the people and fisherman near the sea, The garfish were strong and large, with long hard snouts and razor sharp teeth, which pierced right through the bodies of the people. When the king heard this terrible news, he got up on his war elephant and taking his army to the beach, saw the many bodies of his people strewn across the sandy white beaches now stained red with blood.
The king immediately ordered his men to kneel and form a line on the beach, creating a wall against the garfish. But this didn't stop the fish from attacking. In fact, one of the garfish leapt so high up in the air, its snout tore the sleeve of the king. (Phew! i nearly died)
Upon seeing so many of his men being killed by the ferocious fish, the king ordered the men to retreat immediately and ordered everyone to stay away from the coastline. Meanwhile, he gathered all his advisors and tried to figure out a way to deal with the problem, as Singapura was dependent on its fishing and seas for trade.
At this time, a boy asked for and audience of the king. He told the king, ''Your Highness, i may have a solution to the garfish. Why don't we line the beaches with banana stems, so when the garfish attack them, they will become stuck and we can kill them at our own leisure?''(Stupid boy, you know i hate smart alecs!) The king thus ordered his men to cut banana stems and plant them firmly along the beach at low tide.
Soon the tide came up and the schools of garfish approached.(Oh no!) The king, his men and the little boy watched as the garfish began attacking the line of banana stems and getting their snouts stuck in the thick stems. When the last garfish got itself stuck, (Hahahaha, i can finally feast on you) the men began to kill each and every one of the fish, ending the menace.
A shout of joy rang out throughout the kingdom and the people began to praise the boy for his cleverness calling him a genius and a blessing from the gods.(Nooooooo, you know i could not stand others getting praised!) The king's heart began to fill with jealousy and rage. That very night, the king ordered his soldiers to kill the boy. (Go to hell boy!!!!)
The soldiers walked into the house on a hill where the boy stayed, pulled out their knives and began to stab the boy.(You're finally dead!) When the men stopped stabbing the boy, they noticed that the blood did not stop flowing and his body became a fountain of blood.
Scared, the soldiers fled from the hut.(My soldiers are all cowards!)
The blood flowed down the hill, covering it. The next morning, the people of Singapura gathered around the hill, wondering why it was red. After searching the hill, they found the boy's body and became sad, (Only i am happy!) never knowing that it was their own king who plotted the boy's death. As the hill was reddish, the people began calling it Bukit Merah, or Red Hill in memory of the boy.
