Story Transcript:

Sl: V poletnem jutru je bilo v Narodnem akvariju Slovenije prijetno hladno.
En: On a summer morning, it was pleasantly cool at the Narodni akvarij Slovenije (National Aquarium of Slovenia).

Sl: Veliki akvariji so razprostirali različne vrste morskih bitij pred očmi radovednih obiskovalcev.
En: Large aquariums displayed various types of sea creatures before the eyes of curious visitors.

Sl: Anže, mlad in živahen ljubitelj živali, je obiskal akvarij z enim samim ciljem.
En: Anže, a young and lively animal lover, visited the aquarium with one goal.

Sl: Njegova zlata ribica, Glimmer, se je nekako znašla v velikem akvariju in Anže je bil prepričan, da je bila določena za velike stvari.
En: His goldfish, Glimmer, had somehow found itself in the large aquarium, and Anže was convinced it was destined for big things.

Sl: Teja, Anžetova prijateljica, ga je spremljala med vsemi mogočimi vodnimi tanki.
En: Teja, Anže's friend, accompanied him through all the possible water tanks.

Sl: "Anže, si prepričan, da je tvoj Glimmer tu notri?
En: "Are you sure your Glimmer is in there?"

Sl: " je vprašala skeptično.
En: she asked skeptically.

Sl: Miha, njun prijatelj, je bil tudi prisoten, medtem ko je fotografiral raznolike ribe na ogled.
En: Miha, their friend, was also present, photographing the diverse fish on display.

Sl: Da, Anže je bil prepričan.
En: Yes, Anže was sure.

Sl: "Počakaj, ko vidiš Glimmer.
En: "Wait until you see Glimmer.

Sl: Ima poseben trik, ko zavrti trikrat okoli sebe," je pojasnil s ponosom.
En: She has a special trick where she spins around three times," he explained with pride.

Sl: Kmalu so se ustavili pred velikanskim tankom, kjer se je zdelo, da plava tisoče rib.
En: Soon they stopped in front of a gigantic tank where it seemed thousands of fish were swimming.

Sl: Anže je prosil osebje akvarija, a so morali biti prepričani.
En: Anže asked the aquarium staff for assistance, but they needed to be convinced.

Sl: Niso dovolili, da vstopi v območje tanka brez dokaza.
En: They wouldn't allow him to enter the tank area without proof.

Sl: "Kako lahko dokažem, da je ribica res moja?
En: "How can I prove that the fish is really mine?"

Sl: " je vprašal Anže osebje.
En: Anže asked the staff.

Sl: Osebje se je le mile volje nasmehnilo in zamahnilo z roko.
En: The staff just smiled kindly and waved dismissively.

Sl: Toda Anže se ni dal.
En: But Anže didn't give up.

Sl: Zamišljen je stal pred tankom in po glavi so mu rojile ideje.
En: He stood thoughtfully in front of the tank, ideas buzzing in his head.

Sl: Nato se je nenadoma spomnil Glimmerjevega trika.
En: Then he suddenly remembered Glimmer's trick.

Sl: "Teja, Miha, potrebujem vajino pomoč," je rekel odločno.
En: "Teja, Miha, I need your help," he said decisively.

Sl: "Moramo preusmeriti pozornost vseh na Glimmer.
En: "We need to draw everyone's attention to Glimmer."

Sl: "Miha je pripravil svojo kamero, Teja je začela razlagati mimoidočim o posebni ribici z neverjetnim trikom.
En: Miha prepared his camera, and Teja began explaining to passersby about the special fish with the incredible trick.

Sl: Zbralo se je vedno več ljudi.
En: More and more people gathered.

Sl: V trenutku kaosa se je zgodilo.
En: In a moment of...
