How the Fish Got its Scales

.Back in the Dreamtime, all of the fish had skin.

One day a father fish went out to look for food. Dad fish was swimming in the reef. Suddenly he saw a shiny shell. He was amazed by the shine. He went closer to the shell and when he touched it, it cut his skin.

He was bleeding, and the blood covered his body. He was trapped in this sack of blood and it slowly dried up. He swam home, but he didn't know that the blood on his body could be spread throughout the oceans. As it dried it formed a hard shell.

Thats how the fish got their scales

Your story was so very intertaining. I could see what happened to your fish because of your wonderful choice of words. I hope you keep writing stories. You are a writer!
