2. Once upon a time, there were two animals living in Kali Mas. They were Sura(a shark) and Baya (a crocodile). They were friends. They lived in peace and harmony. Everyday they ate a lot of fish and shrimps. They ate very greedly. So the population of the fish and shrimps decreased quickly.

3. Baya and Sura were often hungry. They often fought over the food. They forgot their friendship. both Baya and Sura were equally strong. None of them won the fight. Realizing this, they became reconciled. They wanted to live in peace and harmony as before.

4. Baya and Sura agreed to divide the river into two. Then, they made a border using mud and sand. Baya lived upstream and Sura lived downstream. They did not fight over the food anymore.

5. The dry season came. There was no water anymore in the downstream. But there was still enough water in the upstream. So, Sura entered upstream to look for food. However, Baya and got angry to saw Sura look for food in his area. Sura explained that he could not lived in downstream because there was no water in there. Baya didn’t care. He instructed Sura to left his area.

6. Then Baya and Sura fought again. None of them won the fight. They were equally strong. A lot of people came to the bank of the river. They saw the fight. Finally, Baya and Sura died. Suddenly an old man talked to people “this event we see today is rare. So, to remember this event, I gave name this place after two animals, that is Surabaya. Those people agreed. So up to now people called the place “Surabaya”.
