'Here, have a sugar grain!'
"Oh thanks, how sweet of you!"
Ant A accepted the sugar grain from Ant B and happily sucked on it. It was the sweetest sugar grain he had ever ate.
Ant B walked away, her large torso swinging in the wind.
'She's swaying her torso!' Ant A thought. 'Is she sending signals?'
He felt his feelers turning red, and he quickly went back to sucking the sugar grain. He looked at it again - it was slightly bigger than his head, bigger than a normal sugar grain. He realised that it was polished a little - done to improve its taste.
'Wow, she put in so much effort to get me this nice sugar grain. Why is she so nice to me?'
Ant A sat on the dust mite on the floor. It wriggled a little so he gave it a small bite to stun it. It ceased motion and the Ant A settled comfortably on it. He started to ponder.
'Should i bite Ant B? But what if she detaches and shoots poison at me?'
He was very hesitant about it, as Ant B was in the Ma Leiyer Ant species, while he himself was the species of the Shing Pores Ants. Cross breeding was difficult, due to land barriers and genetic differences.
(In case you don't know, ants express their emotions by biting. They are able to vary the intensity of their bite - a light gentle bite is an affectionate one, they can also bite poisonously which is the one that makes us itch. They also have a stunning bite which is used to stun dust mites for them to sit down on)
So one day he mustered enough courage and approached Ant B's hole to find her. He brought along a chip of candy - about 8 times his weight - a fairly significant amount. (ants can carry up to 10 times their weight) Her hole was a long walk - Ant A had to cross a checkpoint to reach the Ma Leiyer's ant territory. But his determination to win her heart led him to press on.
As he was approaching the hole, he saw another Ant, a very good looking one, talking to Ant B. His feelers were nice and long, and he looked bigger than Ant A. He appeared to be an Ma Leiyer species too. Ant B's torso was shaking, seemingly a sign of flirtation.
Ant A started to feel hot.
Ant C (the good looking one) used his feelers to nudge her feelers. Then.. out of the blue.. he leant over and gave her a nice soft bite. Ant B didn't flinch, and even bit back.
Ant A dropped his chip of candy.
He turned and walked away, feelers drooping.
-the end-
[er, dont trust any of the 'facts' i gave in this story, the only true one is the ant can lift 10 times its weight one]
