Once upon a time in the Arctic, there was a beluga whale named Bubbles who loved to play pranks on his friends. One day, he gathered all the animals - a reindeer named Rudolph, a polar bear named Frosty, a walrus named Wally, a narwhal named Narvy, and a penguin named Pippin. Bubbles suggested they all play a game of hide-and-seek.
All agreed, and Bubbles counted while the others hid. After searching for hours, Bubbles couldn't find anyone. Just when he was about to give up, he heard giggles coming from a nearby igloo. Bubbles burst into the igloo, only to find all his friends hiding together and snacking on fish. They all laughed and Bubbles realized how silly it was to play hide-and-seek in the Arctic where everyone is so easy to spot. They all lived happily ever after.
