The time is almost dark. The rat was still trying to find a way home. But it seems today is really bad fate, when the middle of the confusion to find a way to get home, he even accidentally entered in the nest aseknya a sleepy sleep. The twigs he accidentally stepped on made the sleeping lion wake up and immediately grabbed the rat with his sharp nails.
![image "Hi little creature .. dare you right to disturb my sleep. If it's a bangaun this way, there must be something I can eat. Then you'll be my dinner. Grrrr ... ". The word lion growled.
Hearing the angry lion, the poor rat became very frightened. He also ventured to speak up "ma'af lion is mighty .. I accidentally. I got lost in this forest while I was feeding. I've been trying to find a way to get out of the forest, but instead I accidentally entered into your nest. I'm sorry .. pity my wife who is waiting for me at home. I promise, if you release me, then someday I will repay your kindness ". Said the rat was pitiful.
Hearing the words of rats, lions became laughing loudly. '"Hahaha .. little creature like you can what? Until you dare to promise to help me? But okay .. because you've made me laugh and I'm also sorry for your son and your wife, so this time I'll let you go. You go straight north, then you will get out of this forest. and remember .. !! lest you come back here, or I will eat you and will not forgive you ". The word lion. Hearing that, the rat became very happy. He constantly offered his gratitude and was determined to keep his loyalty to the lion someday.
Three months had passed after the incident, one morning .. the rat to find food as usual. Now he just wanders around the forest frontier alone, for fear of returning lost as before. When the rat was cool looking for food, lamat-lamat he heard the sound of moans. Her voice was very weak. He also searched from where the voice was going. How shocked he was to see the lion he once met in the middle was helplessly trapped in a net pinned by a hunter. The mouse approached him and asked about the incident that happened to the lion.

The word singan then goes back into the forest. While the mouse immediately returned to his home. His heart was happy because now he got a new friend and was able to keep the jani he ever made first.
