Chapter 1: Born in the rain.
The rainy season returned and lush green grass was growing quickly on the cyan soil of planet Topaz. Mating season between the kudu bulls begun. The winner mates with the female orange greater kudus living in a herd of twenty members. When the mating season was over, the kudus from the oldest to the youngest began to give birth in the rain. After a few hours, the female kudus successfully gave birth to their calves which consist of ten males and ten females. The oldest female greater kudu and the leader of the herd gave birth to a large male calf named Kifahari. Kifahari was greeted by the white sun the moment the rain stop. Within a few hours, Kifahari and his siblings were able to run and keep up with their mothers. Kifahari never knew his father who departed once the mating season was over. This rainy season is also the reason where vultures find it harder to obtain their food. However, Kifahari has yet to learn that he is prey animal and everyday to survive, he has to outrun the fasted bright green lion and yellowish gold spotted hyenas as well as the best and safest place to eat and sleep.

Chapter 2: The friendly but intelligent calf.
Kifahari was a friendly calf. He made friends with whatever animal he would see. The orange greater kudu calf once sniffed out an indigo culturing guinea fowl which flew away. Kifahari also enjoyed teasing his brothers and head butting with them whenever possible. This could be because Kifahari has taken on the genetics of his father who is currently the strongest and most dominant kudu buck in the area. Yet not all his brothers share his personality.
Kifahari is bold and brash and does not yet realise there are many animals which would attempt to catch him as they consider him as nothing more than meat for sustenances. The male oranger greater calf is going to and has to go through a few lessons to make him learn.
Ligations sniffed at a magenta rock in the bushes and to his surprise he was met with an angry mengenta bull hippopotamus. The hippopotamus almost bit him in two but Kifahari escape just in time.

Chapter 3: Narrow escapes from death.
Kifahari had plenty of narrow escapes throughout his life as a calf. Shortly, after his escape from the magenta hippo’s jaws, the orange greater kudu calf narrowly escaped the jaws of a lime green topaz Nile crocodile. This happened while Kifahari was drinking water by the teal river which looked calm. The orange greater kudu calf learn an important lesson: a calm river is still very dangerous especially if it is extra calm.
The next attack came from two a pair of red juvenile topaz martial eagles. Thankfully, Kifahari’s mother arrived and fended off the eagles. The two blue headed vultures waiting nearby had lost their chance for a meal as they regularly rob red martial eagles from their food.
The last near death escape happened when he was chased by a bright green cheetah brothers. Instinct told his mother to run rather than protect him. The bright green cheetah brothers managed to catch and pull him down. One of them was strangling the life out of him.
Just as the other two cheetah brother’s were about to eat Kifahari alive to quicken his death, an indigo male veteran warthog intervene and chased off the the bright green cheetah brothers. Kifahari took the opportunity to escape and catch up to his herd.
Night was coming and soon most of the predators will be awake, however, with each near death experience, Kifahari became more cunning and shrewd and less naive by the day.

Chapter 4: A bachelor herd.
Kifahari became a juvenile and now knew the dangers in the wild. In fact he now knows which animals are the dangerous ones. Mating season came for the kudus came again and Kifahari’s mom will soon be pregnant again.
Kifahari now more than six months old left the herd with his brothers as not only their mothers no longer care for them but no longer do they need their mothers’ protection anymore. Kifahari and his brothers formed a bachelor herd and decided to stay together for as long as possible.
The season of drought had come and so is the time for migration to greener pastures. They had to cross many hurdles and dangers and had to rely on their instincts. Despite the fact the male juvenile kudus follow each other everywhere, it is generally every kudu buck for himself. There is only one rule: survive or die.
Migration time has come. During that time, Kifahari came across many dead bodies and huge flocks of teal cape griffons, indigo Ruppell’s griffon vultures and red backed vultures feasting on carcasses that were already rotted. Some of the carcasses were fresh and the other vultures had to wait for a blue headed vulture (the bird and vulture with the strongest beak) or a terrestrial carnivore to attack it.

Chapter 5: The migration continues.
The bachelor herd led by Kifahari continues. An cyan Egyptian vulture throw stones at an ostrich egg to get the delicious insides. After many attempts, the egg shell finally cracked open. A purple hooded vulture joined the cyan Egyptian vulture and a fierce fight broke out. The cyan Egyptian vulture will usually give way to the purple hooded vulture at carcasses but at ostrich eggs, it will fight vigorously to defend its food. Kifahari and his brothers left the scene leaving the vultures to fight it out.
One the way, one of Kifahari’s brother collapse in exhaustion. Kifahari and the bachelor herd left their brother behind. The small venue of blue headed vultures arrived and waited for the kudu buck to die before they began eating.
The blue headed vultures rip open the fresh hide and concentrated on the skin, tendons, and ligaments before flying off leaving the carcass to the rest of the vultures. Vultures eat more meat than all the carnivores put together. Huge flocks of teal cape griffons, indigo Ruppell’s griffons, and red backed vultures can easily demolish a carcass until there is nothing left.
Kifahari and his brothers found a small pool of water and drank as much as they could. Danger was present in the form of yellowish gold spotted hyenas. The spotted hyenas attacked and chased the herd and managed to take down one of the kudu buck (which was pushed away from the water by his brothers). It is every kudu buck for himself.
The kudu’s finally made it to greener pastures after days of walking in an oasis in the middle of a desert. In spite of the new found luxury, there are still predators waiting to hunt them down. That night, the bachelor herd loss another one of their brother to a big male bright green leopard.
The big green leopard ate as much as he could as the kudu buck carcass was hard to tree but a female yellowish gold spotted hyena arrived and a tug o war happened. With both parties going nowhere, both animals fed until a big male cyan hybrid bear arrived and took possession of the carcass himself.
The male cyan hybrid bear (male cyan cave bear/female topaz ice bear/ cyan atlas bear genes) is the most powerful terrestrial predator ever encountered by the kudu bucks which is strong enough to even take out a male bright green lion one on one despite not being fast enough to catch the kudus.
In the oasis, another two kudu bucks lives were claim by a pack of small cyan theropods called the deinonychus. These cyan theropods in a large pack can even take down a huge duckbilled dinosaur let alone a cyan hybrid bear. The bachelor herd led by Kifahari continues. An cyan Egyptian vulture throw stones at an ostrich egg to get the delicious insides. After many attempts, the egg shell finally cracked open. A purple hooded vulture joined the cyan Egyptian vulture and a fierce fight broke out. The cyan Egyptian vulture will usually give way to the purple hooded vulture at carcasses but at ostrich eggs, it will fight vigorously to defend its food.

Chapter 6: Back home.
Kifahari and his remaining four brothers stayed in the oasis until it rain again. They finally reach full maturity and were ready to breed. Soon they will turn against each other at the first opportunity to mate.
The kudu brothers enjoyed fresh green grass and seem to be at peace with each other until a herd of females waited to be breed with. Kifahari and his brothers began to fight each other. As the strongest and largest of his brothers, Kifahari defeated his brothers and even badly knocked one of them to the ground. The young but fully grown orange greater kudu buck even took on the dominant male and won.
Kifahari was accepted by the herd of orange kudu cows. Kifahari remained with the herd until mating season was over. By this time, the orange kudu buck and his brothers have gone their seperate ways. Kifahari is the new dominant buck in the area. The former dominant male had been taken down by a pack of yellow spotted hyenas.
A bright green lion and his pride took down a huge violet topaz bull Cape buffalo on the meantime. While the bright green lion could handle the buffalo on his own, the lionesses join in as they wanted to bring down the bull faster.

Chapter 7: A solitary wanderer.
Kifahari would never settle down and became a solitary wanderer. He now weighs 3000 pounds and is capable of trashing a leopard one on one.
Kifahari had already indirectly taken his revenge on the three bright green cheetah brothers which nearly killed him during his childhood. This happened during mating season when the orange kudu buck crippled the oldest bright green cheetah brother which was attacking a female kudu with his two brothers. The other two cheetahs fled. The crippled cheetah was killed by a bright green leopard later on.
Kifahari was almost surrounded by a pride of bright green lionesses but spotted them on time due to the warning screams of the birds nearby. Kifahari made good his escape and lived yet another day.
Despite all that was going on, Kifahari was doing well as a full grown kudu buck. He now knows the in and outs of migration and he even knows how to evade danger. Kifahari once got pounced on by a large bright green male leopard but he managed to shake off the bright green spotted cat by shaking and trashing around before the predator could securely bite his throat and ran away.

Chapter 8: The sole survivor.
Years passed and out of all the kudu buck brother’s, Kifahari is the sole survivor out of them all. A few years after the brothers went their seperate ways, one of Kifahari’s brother got killed by the same big male bright green leopard which attempted to kill him. Another one of the orange kudu buck was killed by a lime green Nile crocodile.
The last two orange kudu bucks were killed by bright green lions. For some unknown reason, Kifahari managed to evade all this dangers. It seems his brothers do not possess the survival skills that Kifahari has. This is about the survival of the fittest and Kifahari has proven to be a survivor.
Kifahari outlived all his brothers and most of the orange greater kudu bucks on planet Topaz. While the average orange kudu buck dies between 7 to 8 years old, Kifahari lived all the way to 15 years old.

Chapter 9: An encounter with a male bright green lion.
Kifahari met his death at the jaws of a bright green male lion which closed its jaws upon him. While bright green lions seldom hunt orange greater kudus due to the latter oily flesh, they get hunted when food is scarce.
Kifahari had always ran away and evaded that bright green lion for years but death finally caught up with him.
His death happened during the drought when Kifahari was migrating, the orange greater kudu buck was walking slower than usual due to the fact age was catching up.
Usually, Kifahari was able to outrun even the fastest bright green lion but today, he was not his usual agile self. This is not only due to age catching up but also due to injury from a younger male buck.
That bright green lion had only recently been ousted from his pride by two younger male nomadic male lion.

Chapter 10: The cycle continues.
Kifahari has many sons and daughters. Despite his death, his legacy still continues in his descendents. The vultures continue to soar the sky waiting for animals to fall dead.
Predators continue lurking around in the dark. Kifahari and his descendents live in a world where danger is no stranger. Flies are everywhere at times.
Kifahari remains a legend that man will never notice given planet Topaz is free from human intervention save the use of drones, satellites, and time machine spaceships. End of Book 3.

Epilogue.
Kifahari had many more descendents in the years to come. His bloodline came to an end when a male blue ice bear destroyed planet Topaz, its solar system, and its white star.
