scorpion's feature was to sting and the frog was afraid of this scary effect because it would affect their relationship and it would be a toxic influence.The frog had been wanting to walk away from the scorpion before the scorpion would take him down. He was becoming more discerning about the company of the scorpion. It was about time that he was decisive about this than something dooming happened.
One day the scorpion asked the frog to carry him across the river on his back because he couldn't swim. The frog replied, "but how do I know you won't sting me while we are crossing?" The scorpion replied, "if I do that, we will both drown!" After thinking about it, the frog told him to hop on.
Half way across the river the scorpion stung him anyway. And they began to drown. The frog began to regret and the scorpion was embarrassed about the later happening.
As they were drowning, the frog said to the scorpion, "but you promised you wouldn't, why didn't you keep your word? Why did you sting me? The scorpion replied, "I couldn't help it, it's my nature to sting!"
