---SECOND PROMPT BELOW---


You are walking along the edge of a pond, enjoying the peacefulness of the water and the sound of the birds chirping. Suddenly, you hear a faint quacking noise coming from the reeds. You walk over to investigate and find a little duckling stuck in the mud.

Without hesitation, you scoop up the little duck and carry it to the edge of the pond. You gently place it in the water and watch as it paddles away, happy to be free.

As you turn to leave, you hear a strange noise behind you. You turn around to see the little duckling following you, waddling as fast as it can to keep up with you. You smile and continue walking, the little duckling trailing behind you like a faithful companion.

Days turn into weeks, and the little duckling grows bigger and stronger. It follows you everywhere you go, quacking happily and nuzzling your hand for attention. You start to realize that this little duckling has become your best friend.

One day, as you are walking along the edge of the pond, you hear a loud noise coming from the bushes. You cautiously approach and find a group of boys throwing rocks at the ducks in the pond. Without thinking, you rush over and stand in front of the ducks, protecting them from harm.

The boys laugh and jeer at you, but you stand your ground. Suddenly, the little duckling waddles up beside you, quacking fiercely at the boys. They back away, startled by the little duck's bravery.

From that day on, the little duckling becomes known as the protector of the pond. It follows you everywhere, always ready to defend its friends from harm. And you know that you have found a true friend in this little duck.
