Another brilliant piece from a Gunnas Writing Masterclass writer.
Once upon a time, there lived a magnificent bear who was the town’s hero. When he went missing, the devastated town unleashed a hoard of spying flies to rest on walls and uncover the bear’s whereabouts.
However, this would prove to be fruitless as the bear now lived where there were no walls. Every day, for the last four years now, the bear was joyously living in a garden with a marvellous young man, who wished to free him from the town’s oppressive walls. Every day, the flies persisted, sitting on walls and harbouring secret after secret on not only possible whereabouts of the bear but the entire town at large.
One day, the flies encountered a huge secret, involving so much more than the bear. They discovered, that the bear’s benevolent liberator was in fact plotting to unleash the bear on the town and seek revenge for some unknown, hidden, traumatic war between the man and town.
Because of that, the flies abandoned their search of the town hero, and desired only to hunt down the man, named Victor.
Meanwhile, Victor’s and Bear’s relationship had blossomed into a romance.
Because of that, Victor had shifted his desires of imminent destruction to begin his new domestic life with the Bear, who too had long forgotten his ties with his old town. The flies had other ideas, however. They hunted Victor’s whereabouts, until finally Victor’s estranged wife led the flies to a possible lead at a place once thought to be off the edge of the world. Yet once they saw the man and bear, the realised true love exists anywhere and everywhere.
They lift Victor and the bear alone, and they all lived happily ever after.
