Omari escaped from the burning forest, jumped to the river and swam to the other side. He didn't look back during the escape. When he left water, he put unconscious Abiba to grass.
"Dad, where are you?!", called Omari. He waited a moment, but Ruko didn't appear. He got scared... Something happened and most probably Ruko stayed there!

Omari didn't wait. He jumped into the water and swam toward the burning forest. However he couldn't enter there, the fire blocked the only way. Omari started running along forest, searching for other entry. Simultaneously he called the father and roared, but without the reply.

Nobody noticed that black clouds had gathered for some time. Suddenly the wind blew, then there flashed, thundered and... it started to rain. At last the great drought neared the end. There was a hope that the fire will be extinguished. Omari waited impatiently, until can enter forest. He did it, when the fire had been smaller. Will he find his father?
