  Undersea Guardians by Ray Bradbury - All of us have a purpose in life; among us are those whose duty is to act as guardians for those who have a mission to perform. 
  The ocean slept quietly. There was little movement in its deep green silence. Along the floor of a watery valley some bright flecks of orange color swam: tiny arrowshaped fish. A shark prowled by, gaping its mouth. An octopus reached up lazily with a tentacle, wiggled it at nothing, and settled back dark and quiet.  
  Fish swam in and around the rusting, torn hulk of a submerged cargo ship, in and out of gaping holes and ripped ports. The legend on the prow said: U. S. S. Atlantic.  
  It was quite soundless. The water formed around the ship like green gelatin.  
  And then Conda came, with his recruits.  
  They were swimming like dreammotes through the wide dark-watered valleys of the ocean; Conda at the head of the school with his red shock of hair flurried upright in a current, and his red bush beard trailed down over the massive rib of his chest. He put out his great arms, clutched water, pulled back, and his long body shot ahead.  
  The others imitated Conda, and it was very quietly done. The ripple of white arms, cupped hands, the glimmer of quick moving feet, was like the movement of motion pictures from which the sound-track has been cut. Just deep water silence and the mute moves of Conda and his swarm.  
  Alita came close at his kicking heels. She swam with her sea-green eyes widefixed and her dark hair spilling back over her naked body. Her mouth twisted with some sort of agony to which she could give no words.  
  Alita felt someone moving at her side. Another, smaller, woman, very thin in her nakedness, with gray hair and a shriveled husk of face that held nothing but weariness. She swam too, and would keep on swimming.

  We can't tell you who we are.  Or where we live.  It's too risky, and we've got to be careful.  Really careful.  So we don't trust anyone.  Because if they find us...well, we just won't let them find us. The thing you should know is that everyone is in really big trouble.  Yeah.  Even you.________________________________________________________________Cassie is on her own.  There's no Jake to lead the mission.  No Marco to tell stupid jokes.  And no Rachel to say "Let's do it!"  It's just Cassie.  Alone.  In Australia.It all began when the latest Animorphs' mission took a bad turn–and Cassie hid in the cargo hold of a jumbo jet.  Unfortunately for her, that jet took off, bound for Australia.  And what Cassie didn't realize was that the Yeerks were still on her trail–a lone "Andalite bandit" is a pretty hot target.Cassie ends up in the Australian Outback–with no friends to help her, and no knowledge of the terrain.  Even worse, she doubts her survival skills are strong enough to get her back home.  Especially when she notices someone else who's not exactly from the Outback.  Visser Three.

  Tsuro is a fictional character, in this children’s book. He is a clever rock rabbit found in a region called Manicaland, what is part of present-day Zimbabwe. Tsuro is a rock rabbit who goes through many adventures. The stories of Tsuro are loosely based on some of the Shona folk stories. Our grandmothers and grandfathers used to tell us folk stories about the wild animals in our region.  
  One of the main characters was the rabbit in these Shona folk stories one of Zimbabwe's local languages. In Shona, Tsuro means rabbit. I named some of my characters from Shona words. Growing up we would play a game and you would be asked to make up your own story from these characters mainly the rabbit, the monkey, the tortoise, the lion, the elephant, the zebra and all the wild animals. These stories would then be passed on from generation to generation.  
  The name Rock Rabbit comes from a place in Manicaland that I used to go hiking with my dad as a child. It was a mountainous area with a special breed of rabbits that moved so fast. They were pleasing to the eye, but these rabbits would hide under rocks when they saw humans. Through oral history, it is said that when the British settlers first came they named that area Rock Rabbit. The name, up until now has not been changed. 
  All copy rights observed. Some of the stories in this series are loosely based on some Shona folk stories. They belong to every person of the Shona language with different versions from different regions. Our grandmothers and grandfathers used to tell us folk stories about the clever rabbit. However some of the stories in the series were made up, by the author from scratch. 
  About the author. My name is Wadzanai Chiwereza. I was born in Zimbabwe. I have a Bachelor's degree in French, Theatre, and Cinema, from the prestigious French University Université de Grenoble Alpes.
