The story of a jellyfish.
It was another summer day on the Mediterranean coast. A lot of innocent people were bathing in the sea while I was prepared to start my attack. The sea was full of innocent victims ready to be bitten. At that time, I didn’t realise that I was hurting people; what is more, as far as I knew this was - and still is - my way to eat, so it was necessary. When I start biting, something strange happened: I couldn’t bite anybody. After a few minutes trying hard, I found out what was happening. Me
The people had been protected from jellyfish by putting themselves a protecting lotion, so I couldn’t do my work! I was hungry and before being viewed by the people, I went back to the high seas. I didn’t know what I could do now without biting humans; I tried to catch some fish in the sea, but all my efforts were vain.
My knowledge wasn’t good enough to find a solution to this problem, so I took the decision of consulting my friend Blobfish. Apart from being the ugliest animal of the sea (and probably of the Earth too), it was also the most intelligent animal of the SeaWorld, it was so clever that he could smoke under the water. He recommended me to stop living off human beings, like jellyfish used to do in the past. Seeing that I couldn’t do anything else, I followed its advice.
Since then, I’ve been living far from the coast, in the deep-water, where nobody can get. But one day, when nobody can remember about jellyfish, and they will have stopped using the lotion, I will return to the coast and people will start being bitten, like in the past. You’ll have been warned.
