Top of the Food Chain contains a series of events that happened after spraying an unsafe chemical called DDT to get rid of mosquitoes in Borneo. After the spray got rid of the mosquitoes it also killed a wasp that used to get rid off the caterpillars, the excess of caterpillars then caused the roofs to collapse, and they replaced it with tin. Then they ended with the flies, and the geckos ate them so they died and the cats ate the geckos, and got infected, and the people in the town were devastated because the cats were their pets, with the cats gone the rats went out of control and they flew cats from Australia to control the rat population and to keep the people happy.

Explanation:
She was standing in the hallway. From where I was standing I could only see her hair. She had hair as black as coal with a stroke of pink on some of the middle strands. And then she turned. Her face was fair and her cheeks a little fluffy. But she was slim.
When I saw her, my heart skipped a beat or two. I had never laid my eyes on someone so beautiful. It was like a dream. I couldn't move. I couldn't blink. I just started at her angelic face.
What was just a few seconds felt like an eternity. It felt as if there were only the two of us and no one else. The crowd of people standing there seemed to disappear.
Suddenly she went forward and went ahead. I snapped back to reality. I ran towards her but soon she disappeared into the crowd
