The Big B and Mowgli stunned by this bushfire forgot their mutual enmity. As they say, to defeat the common enemy, they turned friends.
All birds and animals had been rushing to the nearby pond to get some respite from searing heat.
Mowgli was solicitous about his brothers, Jaggu and Maggu and his mother Leela. He quickly summoned his friend F-18, a bald-eagle to find out his brothers and mother.
F-18 and Mowgli have turned friends long back when he saved F-18's life from a hungry anaconda.

It wasn't first time that Mowgli's astute senses of survival had won him friends life.

F-18 took up a high flight to search for Jaggu and Maggu, he sighted upon...

Solicitous: Careful, attentive, thoughtful
astute: Keen, bright, clever

ensanguined Leela wid Jaggu & Maggu being pugnacious over the matter of.........

ensanguine To cover or stain with or as if with blood.
pugnacious Combative in nature; belligerent


PS:Guys, I was thinking that 10 words in a day is too much. So there should be a chk of only 5 mails per day.....waise if others can absorb more than ten in a day, then its OK. We can carry on.
