And with that, Mr Snake whipped his tail and flung the nest crashing to the ground. 'All mine again' looking at the Grand Oak Tree. 'Peace at last'...... so he believed.

Fibh was now out of sight, flying high, latching onto the jet stream that would head him across to America.
Mama and Papa arrived back to see Mr Snake, laying in the nest.
“You!” Mama cried out.
“What have you done with my son, Fibh?” As Mama remembered back to when her other two eggs were eaten by Mr Snake.
“I've done nothing this time” Mr Snake sneered.
“Your....Poor boy, has been.. has been eaten, I'm afraid” Mr Snake said in a fake sad tone of voice, looking up at the sky
“What?” Papa screamed.... “Eaten by?” He said... “Not you???”.

“I'm afraid not,i got here too late to save the little bird” Mr Snake said in a sad sorrowful tone “I did try to help the child but the Eagle swooped down on him while he was watching them” Mr Snake pointing to the party. “He was fixated on the party... He.. Didn't know what was coming his way, but it seemed quick and painless”.
“No!” Mama cried out... “My poor baby bird” Papa exclaimed.
“Come on Mama, there's nothing left for us here, just pain, sorrow and misery”.
Mama and Papa began to fly away, they could hear Mr Snake calling out to them.
“I did try, I really did, but what was meant to be, was meant to be hahahahahahahaha... Good Riddance!”.

ibh hurried around his nest, gathering all he could, in the background he could hear Mr Snake shouting “Hurry, quick, you need to get a move on before it's
too late”. “Nearly done, just one or two more things for the journey” Fibh shouted back.
“Good, Good that's it pack it all away now, ready for your journey”.
Fibh was ready and with a push of his wings he was in the air, free at last to live his dream of becoming a boy!
Mr Snake could be heard shouting “Don't worry little bird, I'll let your parents know, bye bye”. Mr Snake was sat in the nest laughing as Fibh flew higher and higher into the distance.
