There was a dolphin who loved to bathe in the sun all day and get a belly full of delicious fish. He was often very lucky as he got the most delicious catch during the hunt.
One day the dolphin was bored and clicking to his mates he said: "Oh, I wish for a really delicious fish - better than all the others."
"I know of one you'd like", said another dolphin.
"Tell me! Where can I find it?", shouted the first full of excitement.
"On the bottom of the sea is a boat. In it lives a strange creature with many extraordinarily delicious arms", explained the other.
The first raced away, without even saying thanks.
He found the boat and swam in, awakening the creature that was much bigger than anticipated. Angry because it was woken, the creature blocked the exit and the dolphin noticed he was trapped. The other dolphin who gave the clue smiled as he was happy his plan had worked so well. He hadn't liked the pretentious little dolphin and if he hadn't been that greedy and naive he wouldn't have met such a gruesome end.
