The Sea Prince and the Fire Child (Pokemon Style) Prologue
Once upon a time, as they say, long before man arrived, the Gods of Fire and Water lived as one, as brother and sister, and the rested in a misty nimbus of peace. Unfortunately, like many fairy tales, ours begin with an act of evil, for Tornadus, the Dark Lord of the Wind, grew jealous of the happy pair and he planted the wicked thorns of suspicion and hatred between them. The thorns took root and turned brother against sister. The Great Kyogre, King of the Waters, rose up in a fury and sent his waves raging around the globe, so mighty that they even threatened the great palace of Ho-Oh, Queen of Fire. The earth was in chaos as fire and water were split ascender, never to be rejoined.
As Ho-Oh saw the waves raging outsider her palace, she knew exactly what was going on.
"Kyogre is responsible," she exclaimed. "Tornadus has turned him against me. They want to extinguish my flame and wipe me from the face of the earth!"
At that rate, Ho-oh could practically feel Kyogre's waves hitting her, reducing her immortality to the point that she would die.
"They will not succeed," shouted Ho-Oh. "My flame will live! MY CHILDREN, GATHER YOUR FIRES AND COME WITH ME!"
At that moment all of the Pokemon of Fire gathered as much flames as they could carry, and the palace began to shine so brightly that Kyogre's waves could not stand it and calmed down. On a tiny speck of land outside the palace, a giant flame was put in place.
"The storm is dead, and the earth is calm," said Ho-Oh. "This holy flame should be watched well, for as long as it burns, the sea will be calm, and the Pokemon of Fire shall live."
And so began the long bitter rivalry between fire and water. As of that day, if a Pokemon of Water was out of the water in daylight, it would die. Also, if a Pokemon of Fire would land in the water, it would die. This rivalry lasted for almost an eon, until the emergence of two star-crossed lovers...
