The Village of Cells

Once upon a time, there was a small village called the village of cells. One of its most popular sityo is
called the “Sityo Plasm” where everything is kept organized and steady. The village was divided into
different administrations called the village organelles in which each administration has their own
responsibilities to keep the village working and productive.

Unlike other villages, this village is also known for being dependent for food supply to their head of the
village council led by Mr. Nucleus or as others call him Mr. Nucs. This is not to be misinterpreted since
the village head likes his job so much that he would sacrifice most of his time to run the village, give
instructions to the village administrations and controls everything that’s been happening in the place.

Protein is the village’s specialty dish that everyone loves. Mr. Nucs together with his assistant head Mr.
Nucleolus, preferred to be called Mr. Leo, paves way for the production of the raw materials called the
ribosomes. But since it is not processed yet, Mr. Nucs lets the Endoplasmic Reticulum administration
which is surrounded by smooth and rough roads to process the ribosomes into edible and tasty food for
the people. These foods were sent via delivery of the active vesicle drivers that works day and night just to
let the villagers have the very food they needed.

One day Mr. Nucs let one of his villagers have a taste of the food but then to his surprise the villager
still did not like it.

“Oh, village head, this is not still edible, maybe if other villagers ate this their stomachs will swell,” said
the young man.

“I am so sorry young man, I will assure you that this instance will not happen again to you and to my
people,” said Mr. Nucs.

While walking down the streets, Mr. Nucs decided to make a solution to the problem, to make an
administration that would finely pack the food to avoid food spoilage and poisoning. So the next morning,
the Golgi Complex started to function as an administration. He also provided them with incinerator
lysosomes that would keep track of the wastes not just in this administration but to the whole village as
well.

There were no concerns regarding with the village’s irrigation since their water supply is unlimited. The
Vacuole H2O Wellness, the village’s administration did not fail to fulfill its job to supply and store water
for the people every moment they needed it. There were no concerns also for the energy source of the
village, since the Mitochondria, the electric department, provides fair electricity to all houses. Another
administration is the solar panel chloroplast that traps heat from the sun and converts it to sugars that
would become an energy source for the village.

The village sits still on the calm and sweet night but this is quite not the case for Mr. Nucs since he
woke up from a terrible dream, it was something that concerns the security of the whole village. He dreamt
that the other filthy and rugged terrorist villagers would create havoc to his village to steal their food source
and harm his people.

The next morning, he and Mr. Leo tightened the walls of the village called cell walls and its pillars
called the cytoskeleton. Later on, they realized that this was not enough to protect the people on what is
possibly gonna happen outside so they heightened their gates which are the called the cell membrane.

The people were very shocked and terrified of the sudden change of the village so they asked the village
head for the reason for their hasty decisions.

“Village head, what is happening to this once safe village? Will a great danger happen to the village?,”
said the weary people.

“My villagers, for now do not be weary, someday you will understand the reason for this hasty village
renovations. But as long as I am with you, you are safe, you just need to trust Mr. Leo and I,” said Mr.
Nucs in the humblest possible manner.

The soft words from the village head made the people feel secured again. This is the main reason why
they admired their village head, because even at difficult times, he still manages to keep himself calm and
spreads peace over the village.

They were all happy and still busy for the next few days until one day, the moment of terror has finally
arrived. The terrorists which Mr. Nucs assumes to be the filthy and rugged villagers shoot bombs with
their huge canyons. The busy villagers felt the roaring of the grounds which made them panic, but then a
shout came out from nowhere, telling them to assemble in front of village hall since its one of the safest
place in the village. They then realized that it was their village head, who remained calm despite of the
happening in front of the gates of the village.

“My people, you are safe here, nothing can harm us now since early renovations were made,” said Mr.
Nucs.

“Our walls and gates are heightened and made strong so that their bombs cannot reach us. The moment
they shoot their bombs to us, it just bounces off our walls, so eventually it will backfire to them letting
them taste their own punishment for threatening our village,” Mr. Leo added.

Shouts and tears of joy were prevalent to the villagers. They cannot believe of how mighty their leaders
are for protecting them making them want to do the same to protect their beloved home, their beloved
Sityo Plasm.

Later on when the village was safe and sound, the village leaders together with the hardworking
administrations worked out their plan to make a banquet of proteins for the people. The night ended with
the villagers being able to celebrate their success over the threats of danger to their village and enjoyed the
proteins fully to their stomachs and hearts content.
