Once upon a time, in a far-off kingdom, there lived a king who liked to play with his kite. One day, the king decided to go on a picnic, and he brought along his trusty lamp, a juicy lemon, and a key to unlock his treasures.

As the king was flying his kite, a lion appeared and asked, "Your majesty, may I join you for a game of catch with that kite?" The king agreed and as they were playing, a mischievous kangaroo hopped by and stole the key to the king's treasure chest.

The king, lion, and the kite all chased after the kangaroo, who was leaping and jumping through the forest. Suddenly, the kangaroo tripped on a leaf and dropped the key. The king retrieved his key and opened the treasure chest to find... a big pile of leaves!

The king, lion, and kangaroo all laughed at the silly treasure, and they all continued to play with the kite and enjoy their lemonade until the sun set. And they all lived happily ever after.
