Now there is fire in all rocks, in all sticks. But long ago there wasn't any fire in the world, and all of the Yaquis and the animals and the creatures of the sea, everything that lived, gathered in a great council in order to understand why there was no fire. For this reason, Bobok, the Toad, offered to go get this fire. The Crow offered to help him and also the Roadrunner and the Dog. These four, the winged animals and the dog, went along to help. But Bobok, the Toad, alone, knew how to enter the water of the sea and not die. So then Bobok went went to the house of the God of Fire and stole it and then was in the water swimming back and the God of Fire then was sending thunder and lightning. Then the water around him started to whirpool. All of a sudden he started to see many toads and gave each of them a piece of the fire. they all made it to land and awaited them was the dog, the Roadrunner, and the crow and it was then given to them and once the God of Fire saw this he then struck lightning on the crow, the roadrunner, and the dog. But many toads kept on coming and bearing fire to the world. These animals gave light to all the things in the world. They put it into sticks and rocks. Now men can make fire with a drill because the sticks have fire in them.
