Once upon a time, an ant named Antony was walking down the street and spotted a big juicy apple. He tried to carry it back to his colony, but it was too heavy. Suddenly, an ambulance drove by and offered to give Antony a ride back to his colony with the apple. But as they were driving, an airplane flew overhead and dropped an ax, which landed right on the ambulance's roof! The alligator who was nearby saw the commotion and offered to help. They tied the apple to the ax and flew away in the airplane to the ant colony. When they arrived, all the ants were amazed and had a big feast with the apple. The end.
