Once upon a time, in a beautiful lake, there lived three fish who were great friends. The fish were different in their personalities, but they still enjoyed each other's company.
One day, the most perceptive of the three overheard some fishermen talking near the lake. They were discussing how the lake was teeming with fish and how they would return the next day to catch them all. Alarmed, the perceptive fish swam back to its friends to share the news.
"We must leave this lake immediately," it told them. "I have overheard some fishermen planning to come here tomorrow and catch all the fish. It's not safe for us to stay."
The second fish, who was also wise, agreed. "Yes, I believe we should leave this place at once. There is no time to waste," it said.
However, the third fish, who was more laid-back, did not see the urgency. "Why are you so worried?" it asked. "We have lived in this lake for so long without any trouble. I am sure we can outsmart the fishermen if they come. There is no need to leave our home."
Despite the third fish's objections, the first two fish decided to leave the lake. They swam away to a nearby river, while the third fish chose to stay behind, confident in its ability to escape the fishermen.
The next day, as planned, the fishermen arrived at the lake with their nets. They cast their nets into the water and began catching the fish. The third fish, realizing the danger it was in, tried to escape but was ultimately caught in one of the nets. The fishermen pulled their nets out of the water, delighted with their large haul of fish.
Meanwhile, the first two fish, who had swum to safety, were spared from the danger. They lived out their lives in the safety of the river, grateful for their timely escape.
Once upon a time, there was a jackal named Chandarava. He lived in a big forest. One day, he went to a village looking for food. The village dogs saw him and started to chase him. Chandarava was very scared and ran fast to hide.
He found a big pot of blue dye that people used to color clothes. He jumped into the pot to hide. When he came out, he was blue all over. The dogs did not recognize him and stopped chasing him.
Chandarava looked at his blue fur in a puddle. He had an idea. He went back to the forest and pretended to be a special animal.
The other animals were surprised and scared when they saw him. They had never seen a blue animal before. Chandarava said, "I am sent by the gods to be your king. You must listen to me and I will take care of you."
The animals believed him. They brought him food and took care of him. Chandarava enjoyed being their king and lived a good life.
But one day, he heard other jackals howling. He forgot his trick and howled back. The animals heard him and realized he was just an ordinary jackal. They were angry and chased him away.
Chandarava was alone again, walking in the forest.
In a big lake, there are three fish. They are best friends. They like to swim and play together.
One day, one fish hears some men near the lake. The men say they will come back tomorrow to catch fish. The fish swims to tell its friends.
"We must go now," it says. "The men will come tomorrow to catch all the fish. It is not safe here."
The second fish agrees. "Yes, we need to go now," it says.
But the third fish says, "Why are you worried? We are safe here. We can hide from the men."
The first two fish swim to a river. The third fish stays in the lake.
The next day, the men come back. They throw their nets into the water. The third fish tries to swim away, but it gets caught in a net. The men are happy to catch many fish.
The first two fish are safe in the river. They are happy they left the lake. They live in the river and are safe.

Once upon a time in a sparkly lake, three fish buddies were doing their thing: swimming in circles, blowing bubbles, and having a grand old time.
Now, the first fish—let's just say he's the one who always knows what's going on—heard some fishermen talking near the lake. "We'll come back tomorrow and catch all these fish," they said.
Zooming back to his friends, Fish One blurted, "Hey, you won't believe this! Those fishermen are planning a big fish-catching party tomorrow, and guess who's invited? Us! We gotta get outta here!"
Fish Two, the smart one, piped up, "You heard the man, let's go! No time to waste!"
But Fish Three, always cool as a cucumber, just floated there. "Really? Why worry? We've always been fine. I say we stay and outsmart those fishermen."
Fish One shook his head. "Outsmarting fishermen is not like playing tag, you know. It's more like... being in a really tough game where you don't want to be 'it.'"
Fish Two chimes in, "He's got a point, you know. No time for games!"
Ignoring Fish Three's chill vibes, Fish One and Fish Two swam away as fast as their fins could take them, straight to a cozy river nearby.
Fish Three? Well, he stayed right where he was, until the next day when—splash!—the nets came flying in. "Oh no, this isn't good," thought Fish Three, as he got scooped up into a net.
Meanwhile, Fish One and Fish Two, chilling in their new river home, gave each other a little high-fin. "That was close!"
"Yeah, too close! We dodged that one, didn't we?"
And so, they lived happily ever after in their new home, swimming in circles and blowing bubbles, just like old times.
Three fishy friends in waters blue,
Lived happily as friendships grew.
Though each was different, fin to scale,
Together they would laugh and tale.
When Fish One, keen of ear and sight,
Heard fishermen talk one fine night.
"Tomorrow we will cast our nets,
And fill our boats with fish, no threats!"
Quick as a flash, he told his pals,
"We've got to leave before this galls!
Fishermen plan to net us all,
We must escape or else we'll fall!"
Fish Two, wise in thought, agreed,
"There's no debate, we must proceed."
But Fish Three simply scoffed and grinned,
"Why leave the home we've always been?"
First and Second made their choice,
Heeding that warning voice.
They swam away to river's bend,
Their tale was safe, but not the end.
Fish Three stayed, so self-assured,
Thinking he'd escape, undeterred.
But nets came down, both far and near,
And soon he found himself in fear.
Fishermen cheered at their grand haul,
As nets lifted, capturing all.
Fish Three regretted his stubborn stand,
As he flapped and flopped on foreign land.
Now One and Two, in river free,
Gave thanks for their swift decree.
Safe in waters, fast and clear,
They swam together, year by year.
Thinking about danger and being very cautious.
People who catch fish for a living.
Having good judgment and making smart decisions.
Not worried, calm, and at ease.
Told about the danger to keep safe.
Made someone believe something is true.
Stay away from something dangerous.
Very close in distance to a place.
Becoming aware of something important.
Got away from a place or situation.
A big place with water.
With each other in one place.
The day after today.
To get something that moves.
Not in danger or hurt.
Says yes to something.
Feeling afraid something bad might happen.
To go where you cannot be seen.
Things used to catch fish or other animals.
Feeling good and smiling.
Thinking about danger and being very cautious.
People who catch fish for a living.
Having good judgment and making smart decisions.
Not worried, calm, and at ease.
Told about the danger to keep safe.
Made someone believe something is true.
Stay away from something dangerous.
Very close in distance to a place.
Becoming aware of something important.
Got away from a place or situation.
