He held his breath as long as he could because he knew that ear would not attack dead people. The Bear came up and felt with his nose. Bear smelt him all over. The Bear soon left him, because Bear would not touch a dead body.

The other man then asked what the Bear advised him. Then, his friend said that the Bear advised him not to travel with someone who leaves his friend at the approach of danger.

Yummy, this is my lunch, said Baya. No way! This is my lunch. You are greedy! I have not eaten for two days! said Sura. Then Sura and Baya fought as usual. After several hours, they were very tired. Sura had a plan to stop their bad habit. Im tired of fighting, Baya, said Sura. Me too. What should we do to stop fighting? Do you have any idea? asked Baya. Yes, I do. Lets share our territory. I live in the water, so I look for food in the sea. A long time ago in East Java there were two strong animals, Sura and Baya. Sura was a shark and Baya was a crocodile. They lived in a sea. Actually, they were friends. But when they were hungry, they were very greedy.

And you live on the land, right? So, you look for the food also on the land. The border is the beach, so we will never meet again. Do you agree? asked Sura. Hmm... let me think about it. OK, I agree. From now on, I will never go to the sea again. My place is on the land, said Baya. Then they both lived in the different places. But one day, Sura went to the land and looked for some food in the river. He was very hungry and there was not much food in the sea. Baya was very angry when he knew that Sura broke the promise. Hey, what are you doing here? This is my place. Your place is in the sea! But, there is water in the river, right? So, this is also my place! said Sura. Then Sura and Baya fought again. They both hit each other.

A couple of deer went to a river to drink. They were husband and wife. After arrived in the lake, they immediately drank some water. Suddenly, the wife saw an animal coming. My husband, who is he? Wow! He is very handsome with his horns, said the female deer. Oh, thats my friend. He is a dog. By the way, did you say he is more handsome than me? asked the male deer. He was jealous. Of course not, you are still more handsome than he is. But I have to admit that his horns are beautiful. If you have those horns, I think you will look very attractive. Ok, then, I have an idea how to take the horns from the dog. Just wait here. Hi, how are you? asked the male deer to the dog. Im just fine, answered the dog. How about you? Not really good. You see my wife over there? She thinks that I cannot run fast like other male deer. Do you mind if we have a running match? I really want to practise, said the male deer. Dont worry, my friend. Lets have the running match now. After that, the running match began. The male deer won. Then, he tried to cheer the dog up. Well, dont be sad. You cannot run fast because you have your horns on your head. What if you let me wear the horns, asked the male deer. OK, but please wear the horns carefully. I dont want them to be broken. Dont worry. I will be very careful, replied the male deer. And then he immediately put the horns on his head. Wow? My wife is right. I really look great with these horns, said the male deer to himself. Then, they started the running match again. The male deer ran as fast as he could. He ran very fast and did not stop. He was trying to steal the dogs horns. Hey come back! Bring back my horns! the dog was very angry. Until now, dogs always try to catch deer. The dogs want to get their horns back.

Once upon a time the colours of the world started to quarrel. All claimed that they were the best. The most important. The most useful. The favourite. Green said, "clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I was chosen for grass, trees and leaves. Without me, all animals would die. Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in the majority." Blue interrupted, "you only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from the deep sea. The sky gives space and peace and serenity. Without my peace, you would all be nothing."

Yellow chuckled, "you are all so serious. I bring laughter, gaiety, and warmth into the world. The sun is yellow, the moon is yellow, and the stars are yellow. Every time you look at a sunflower, the whole world starts to smile. Without me there would be no fun."
Orange started next to blow her trumpet, "I am the colour of health and strength. I may be scarce, but I am precious for I serve the needs of human life. I carry the most important vitamins. Think of carrots, pumpkins, oranges, mangoes, and papayas. I don't

hang around all the time, but when I fill the sky at sunrise or sunset, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another thought to any of you." Red could stand it no longer he shouted out, "I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood - life's blood! I am the colour of danger and of bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. I bring fire into the blood. Without me, the earth would be as empty as the moon. I am the colour of passion and of love, the red rose, the poinsettia and the poppy." Purple rose up to his full height. He was very tall and spoke with great pomp, "I am the colour of royalty and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey." Finally Indigo spoke, much more quietly than all the others, but with just as much determination: "Think of me. I am the colour of silence. You hardly notice me, but without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, twilight and deep water. You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer and inner peace." And so the colours went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own superiority. Their quarrelling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colours crouched down in fear, drawing close to one another for comfort. In the middle of the quarrel, rain began to speak, "you foolish colours, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the rest. Don't you know that you were each made for a special purpose, unique and different? Join hands with one another and come to me." Doing as they were told, the colours united and joined hands and became a beautiful rainbow.
