Once upon a time there lived a young boy named Jake. Jake was a bright and curious kid and always eager to explore the world around him.
One day, Jake was playing in his backyard when he saw a strange sight – a small hole in the ground with a stream of water disappearing into it. Jake was intrigued and peered into the hole to see what was down there. To his surprise, he found himself looking into a giant underground lake!
The lake was full of many colourful fish and other aquatic creatures. Jake was mesmerised by the beauty beneath him and quickly decided to go down and explore. He carefully lowered himself into the hole and swam around in the calm waters. Jake felt so safe and relaxed that he wanted to stay in this magical place forever!
Suddenly, Jake felt a tugging sensation on his leg. He quickly realised that the water was getting deeper and the current was pulling him downwards. He tried to fight against it, but the force was too strong. In a few minutes, Jake had sunk to the bottom of the lake.
At the bottom of the lake, Jake saw a luminous green light coming from a large chest. He swam closer and opened to find a golden key inside. He knew he had to take it, so he put the key in his pocket and started swimming up.
But before he could reach the surface, Jake felt an even stronger tugging sensation on his legs. He looked down and realised that the lake was slowly downsinking! Jake tried to fight against the current, but it was no use. He was being pulled deeper and deeper into the abyss.
Luckily, Jake managed to grab a rock at the bottom of the lake and clung to it as he was pulled downwards. He closed his eyes and could feel the force of the water trying to take him away. Suddenly, the green light reappeared and Jake heard a voice telling him that he should not be scared. The voice said that if he trusted the light, it would guide him back to the surface.
Jake opened his eyes and followed the light. Slowly but surely, it guided him back to the surface of the lake. When he got there, he could see that the water level had dropped significantly, but he was alive and well.
Moral of the story:
Never lose faith and trust yourself, especially in times of difficulty. No matter how strong the current may be, if you hold on to your courage and determination, the light will always guide you back to safety.
