The state of New Pigland vs. Wolf
The lawyer of Mr. Wolfe:
Your honor, in front of you is sitting an innocent animal who was trying to save the neighborhood of many deaths. I will explain to you the true story of what happened that cold night on September 22, 2009.
As you may heard on television and read in the newspapers, swine flu is one of the biggest threats in our state. The animals that initiated this sickness in that particular neighborhood were the three brothers, The Three Little Pigs. After they came back from Teklixico, they did not report their sicknesses to the hospital, and it consequently infected many animals of that city. One such animal was Mr. Wolf. He had all the symptoms of a swine flu like headache, high body temperature, coughing, fever, sneezing, etc.. Mr. Wolf, as a good citizen, went to the hospital where he got medicine against the flu. The side-effects of that medicine were unusual behavior and certain food cravings.
That day, September 22, 2009, Mr. Wolf's grandmother celebrated her eightieth birthday. Mr. Wolf wanted to make a special gift for her, a home-made cake. Since he valued his grandmother so much, he, instead of staying in bed, went to his neighbor to ask for sugar.
Still under influence of the medicine of the swine flu, he went to Mr. First Little Pig. As soon as he came to his house, a powerful sneeze came out. This sneeze destroyed Mr. First Little Pig's house. It was not Mr. Wolf's fault that the constructors of this house did a poor job building it. Unfortunately the destruction, killed Mr. First Little Pig. Being a good innocent animal, who thinks about the health and safety of other animals in the neighborhood, Mr. Wolf ate Mr. First Little Pig so the deadly disease would not spread around. This fact made Mr. Wolf feel better since he was saving the society.
But he still needed the sugar for the cake, so he went on to the Second Little Pig's house. There, he sneezed again, and the house crumbled down. (Maybe this house was done by the same constructors as the first one?). Mr. Wolf saw the dead body and decided to get rid of it by eating it as well so nobody else would get down with the swine flu.
Mr. Wolf then went to the Third Little Pig's House to ask for a cup of sugar. Mr. Wolf sneezed there as well and Mr. Third Little Pig thought that Mr. Wolf is attacking his house so he screamed and kicked Mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf obviously did not want to get killed so he fought back. At this point, police of the state came and arrested Mr. Wolf for murder of Two Little Pigs.
Mr. Wolf did not have intentions to kill anyone, he wanted to save the society from deadly sickness of swine flu which Three Little Pigs were spreading. In fact, Mr. Wolf did not murder anyone, Two Little Pigs were killed by negligence of the constructors of their houses.
So what's the guilt of Mr. Wolf? Is it the fact that he was trying to save the world by stopping the lethal disease?

Nice...to take advantage of the Swine Flu "issue" and adapt it into the story. Not to mention that it fits like a glove (with the pigs carrying the virus).
Great idea using the swine flu to prove the wolf's innocence. Another great point you made was blaming the fragile construction of the houses as the main reason they fell over. The fact that the wolf ate the pigs in order to stop the swine flu epidemic was a great excuse! It should be a great alibi when he goes to court. Great read.
I like the fact that you relate the story to current facts like the swine flu. Your story was very creative and the swine flu nowadays is a very good excuse to avoid the blame.
I would have never think of this idea of using the swine flu issue...I think u did a great job because u know how to relate something with current issues...
