Once upon a time, there lived a beautiful Suzaku maiden.
Her name was Miaka.
One day, while she was sitting by the pond, she heard someone call her name.
"Miaka…"
She felt that it was one of the 7 Suzaku Star Warriors, so she suddenly stood up and looked around to see who it was.
"Tamahome?" asked the maiden.
"Miaka…"
"Tamahome…"
"Miaka…"
"Tamahome…"
"Mia— *ribbit*! *ribbit*!"
"Tamahome?!"
((splash— splash— splash!))
Miaka looked at the pond and saw a frog swimming towards her. She was about to scream and run, but she felt pity for the frog that sounded like Tamahome.
"Miaka— *ribbit*— I'm Tamahome! Help me! *ribbit*!" croaked the frog, as it hopped and sat on a lily pad.
"Uh…you're not Tamahome." said Miaka, puzzled.
"Be—*ribbit*— lieve me, pleeeaaasse! I'm Tamahome!" insisted the frog. "Look at my forehead. It has that Chinese character on it."
Miaka did look and indeed saw the Chinese character similar to Tamahome's.
"And… and… listen to my voice *ribbit*, it's Tamahome's voice!"
"But Tamahome, why did you become like that?" asked the maiden. She was starting to believe the frog already.
"A wicked witch from the kingdom of Seryuu cast a spell on me. She said that the spell can only be broken by the kiss of a beautiful maiden." replied the frog.
Miaka thought about it for a moment , then lifted the frog from the pond and kissed it.
Specks of red light suddenly appeared.
"Tamahome…"
"Mia— *ribbit*…"
A beam of white light glowed between them. It radiated more and more, blending with the red lights, and illuminated the surroundings. The maiden and the frog, and everything around them became less and less visible as the lights engulfed them.
[A music coming from a harp filled the air, making the moment more magical.]
As the lights and the music slowly faded, everything returned to normal again.
"*ribbit*"
But the frog did not transform to a Suzaku warrior. He still remained a frog.
"Perhaps, I should've asked Yui instead." thought the frog, disappointed.
"AAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggghhh! Tamahommmmeeeeeeeeeee!!!"
The startled frog immediately looked at the ground where the maiden stood before, and saw another frog.
"What happened, Tama— *ribbit*?!!" croaked the frog on the ground, pathetically.
"(sweatdrop) Miaka?"
"Tamahome…"
The 2 frogs felt sorry and sympathized with each other.
"Don't worry. *ribbit* At least we're together now." assured the 'Tamahome' frog, while the 'Miaka' frog fought back her tears.
Both of them, then, hopped in the water and swam all day, and lived happily ever after.
The end.
