Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were swimming
around in the sea - one called Justin and the other called Christian.
The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks that
patrolled the area.
Finally one day Justin said to Christian, "I'm bored and frustrated at being
a prawn, I wish I was a shark, then I wouldn't have any worries about being
eaten"
As Justin had his mind firmly on becoming a predator, a mysterious cod
appears and says, "Your wish is granted" and lo and behold Justin turned
into a shark.
Horrified, Christian immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old
mate.
Time went on and Justin found himself becoming bored and lonely as a shark.
All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin
didn't realize that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad
plight.
While out swimming alone one day he sees the mysterious cod again and can't
believe his luck. Justin figured that the fish could change him back into a
prawn. He begs the cod to change him back, so lo and behold, he is turned
back into a prawn.
With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes, Justin swam back to his friends
and bought them all a cocktail. (The punch line does not involve a prawn
cocktail - it's much worse).
Looking around the gathering at the reef, he searched for his old pal.
"Where's Christian?" he asked.
"He's at home distraught that his best friend changed sides to the enemy and
became a shark", came the reply.
Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain the torture, he set
off to Christian's house. As he opened the coral gate the memories came
flooding back. He banged on the door and shouted, "It's me, Justin, your old
friend, come out and see me again."
Christian replied "No way man, you'll eat me. You're a shark, the enemy and
I'll not be tricked."
Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed. I've
found Cod, I'm a prawn again Christian."
