Kyle Morgan 3/12/11     3B ** __ Extra Chapter  __ ** The little prince came next to a beautiful, heavily wooded planet. The planet was silent and the little prince began to wonder if anyone lived there. As he thought this, a deer stepped out of the woods into a small clearing. He observed the little prince at a safe distance. “Well hello, little animal,” said the little prince, “you look very peaceful. You are truly a thing of beauty.” A twig snapped in the distance and the deer began to sprint away. The little prince jumped as he heard an awfully loud sound. A man ran out of the forest with a metal contraption in his hand, screaming, “I’ll get you next time, you dang deer!” “What are you doing, sir?” asked the little prince. “That dang deer better watch his back, I’ll get him someday,” muttered the hunter. “What are you doing, sir?” repeated the little prince, who never let go of a question once he had asked it. “Can’t you see boy? I’m hunting!” replied the hunter, still frustrated from his failure to shoot the deer. “What is hunting?” asked the little prince. “Hunting is where I take this here gun and try to shoot animals with it. It’s mighty fun. Wanna have a go at it?” “No, thanks. Do you hunt these animals for food?” “Naw, I don’t like the taste of ‘em. I just eat fruits and things.” “What did the animals do to make you mad at them?” “Them animals didn’t do nothing, it’s just fun to hunt ‘em!” screamed the hunter, firing his gun aimlessly into the air. “But if an activity serves no purpose, and does not provide any sort of beauty, then there is no point to it,” said the little prince. This took the hunter by surprise, and he stood in silence, trying to put together a response. At this, the little prince left him.
