The burro had a master that abused him both physically and verbally, so much that he couldn't take it anymore 
Rising Action
alright
So when his master was asleep one night he decided to run away.
Falling Action
UH OH!
As soon as the burro was free heed never felt happier. He ate grass, drank water, and finally got some well-needed sleep.
Solution
NO! I'd much rather be abused than eaten
The next day, the burro was walking threw the forest when he ran into a fox. The fox offered to take him to join a group of free animals like himself .
Come and join the  band of free animals i'm in 
Before the burro could join the group he had to meet the group leader, the lion first. But to his surprise, all the lion wanted to do was eat him.
GRRRR
The burro quickly fought off the lion just enough so he would have time to run away back to his master.
