One day many years ago two frogs named Tobi and Orochimaru raced along an everglade tree to see who could make it to the top first. Orochimaru made it first and was about to gloat when he was dragged violently from the leafy branch and eaten by a snake. The snake was then eaten by a larger than average hawk. Tobi dashed home to his mother. Deidara, his mother, asked him what happened. “My brother, Orochimaru, was EATEN mother!” Tobi gasped. Deidara puffed herself up to try and see if she could be as big as the hawk. “Is this as big as the hawk that ate the snake that ate Orochimaru?” Deidara croaked. “Oh, no mother it t’was much bigger!” Tobi ribbited. Deidara puffed up even larger. “How about now?” Deidara gasped. Tobi sighed, “Mother, you could never be as big as the hawk!” “I can try!” Deidara puffed. Now she grew to the size of a basketball. “Tobi is a good boy, mother, so I will let you do as you will.” Tobi croaked. Sadly, as Deidara opened her mouth to say something she burst into a bloody mess. Tobi lunged back, narrowly missing being splattered with frog flesh. “Ach, what a waste!” Tobi grunted as he hopped off to bury his mother. When he completed that, he leapt away to find a new house and life. Later that day, Tobi was eaten by a alligator.
