How the whale got his blow hole
Long, long ago there was a whale named Joe, and he was 18 years old. Joe was cool and sensitive, but he loved to swim in oceans deep blue sea. One day he
thought he was smart, and went off on his own. Of course he was 18, but in whale years, that’s young, so he swam to a near by underwater village to search for food.
Joe saw a flock of fish swimming through the pale white coral reef, he whispered to himself, “Delicious!” Joe went straight for the colourful yummy looking fish, then suddenly. . .
Joe felt a sharp blade stab down on his back. The sharp blade of a harpoon. Whalers were looking down on him from the surface of the water. He went into a sudden shock, and started to move. Joe tried to get the pain away, but he couldn’t move. Soon he was unconscious.
After 3 minutes, he was awaken. Joe saw blankness in a distance, and then a gigantic black shadow came towards Joe. It was his father, he had scared away the whalers. As he came closer to Joe, he started to cry because there was blood coming out of Joe’s back, the cloud of blood started to expand in the blue ocean.
The dark red blood was mixing with the oceans glimmering blue water, so Joe’s dad wiped the blood off with his big fin. It was an oval hole (which was the blow hole), the hole was connected to his mouth then it shot out water into his face. He looked scared that he might lose his son, but as that blood sank to the bottom of the deep blue sea, it created a beautiful big red coral so when Joe’s somewhere else it’s like he was by the coral sleeping right next to it.
