Scene One:   At home	I can see a small space and dim light. It reminds me of the burrows I have seen on tv that animals dig out as their home. I can see they are all huddled together so there is not a lot of room. The inside of the burrow is brown so it is dirt that has been dug under the ground.
Scene Two:   First activity of the day	While the leader of the very cute meerkats tries to get the fruit for them to eat,  the rest of the meerkats are staring at the fruit like it's the best thing they have seen.
Scene Three:   A feared enemy	Then a scary looking vulture came along and scared away all the innocent meerkats. The vulture glares down from the tree at the frightened meerkats. With its sharp claws the vulture picks the delicious fruit the meerkats wanted from the tree and flies away.
Scene Four: Enemies revenge	The meerkats now want revenge, a charge at the vulture with the fist in the air. One of the meerkats jumps up onto the vulture's claw and tries to take back their fruit but fails. So then the next meerkat tries but does not let go. The meerkats end up forming a human ladder all holding on to the meerkat in front of them. The vulture flies even higher with all the meerkats behind her. Going higher and higher, up to the clouds.
Scene Five: The Rescue	Then the vulture flings the meerkats into the air. The meerkats start to fall to the ground drying to get the fruit. They catch the fruit and pass it around trying not to get the vulture to get it, while still falling. The vulture gets the fruit back and flys back up to the air but then the meerkats fall onto the vulture.
Scene Six: Sport nirvana	The vulture flings meerkats off and then the vulture mashes into a wall with the fruit dropping from its claw. The meerkats got the fruit!.
Scene Seven: The End	The meerkats happily walk away with its fruit then accidentally kicks it in the air. The fruit falls to the ground and mashs!. It was all for nothing.
