16 Pharaohs, Frogs, and The war against the penguins.

"So where is he?", asked Awe, after we finally reached the place where I met kagaras.

"Not sure, he should be around here somewhere.".

"Sigh… Seriously? Even meeting another Sakit isn't easy around here? Why didn't you two arrange someplace to me-".

Ribbit…

"Shut up.".

"Excuse me!?", said the girl fuming with a deep glare that's as sharp as daggers.

So I replied honestly, "I said shut up. Can't you hear it?".

Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit…

"Hear what?".

"It sounds like croaks.".

"Hmm? Oh yeah…", said Awa before closing her eyes.

We both focused on finding the source of the sound.

Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit, ribbit…

"Is it me… or is the croaking from above?", asked Awa.

We both look up and see the face of a giant anthropomorphic frog wearing eyeliner and a double crown colored red and white, with a blue and gold striped headdress.

The giant frogman smiles and utters a single word, "Kek.", and the world is covered by a blinding green light.

I immediately covered my eyes and felt my form changing.

When the light disappeared, I removed my now cold and slimy hands… oh no…

I looked at the sky, but the figured disappeared, after that I slowly lower my head, only to see eye to eye with a blue toad.

"Ahhhhh!", we both scream.

"Qu'est-il arrivé!?(What happened)", asked Awe. And what is this language and how come I understand it!? I think I remember hearing about it. It's also an earth language, was it Franco? Frennech? Francais? Hmm… They're the descendants of Frankish tribes from the upper and lower rhines… Meh, let's just call it Frankish.

"Je ne sais pas. (I don't know)".

"Que faisons-nous pas!? (What do we do now)".

"Je ne sais pas. (I don't know)".

"C'est la pire journée de ma vie. (This is the worst day of my life)".

You and me both, sister, "Je ne pouvais pas être plus d'accord. peut-être que Kagaras peut nous aider. (I couldn't agree more. maybe kagaras can help us.)".

"Vous avez raison. (You're right.)".

"En parlant de Kagaras, je l'ai trouvé, Hé Kagaras! (Speaking of Kagaras, I found him, Hey Kagaras!)".

Skoooooreeeyaaaa!

He doesn't look happy to see us. Though we're toads, he should recognize our aura… Wait… Shit, our aura feels like that frog's energy!

"Gyek Gurn Morjaaaa!".

"Courir! (Run)". I tell Awe, before I turn and try to escape.

Crack!

I foolishly turn to see the tip of Kagaras' left wing spit roasted Awe from above, caving her head inside her body in the process, before her body started to dissipate.

The last thing I see is his right wing's heading to my head. Fuck me…

Crack!

And that's the last thing I hear before everything goes black…

---

Years have passed and I still remember the event as if it was yesterday.

Instead of fading for some time, and then reawaken in the same world like Kagaras told me, I found myself in the presence of that frog entity known as Kek. He told me that the reason I'm here is because he found out a way to steal souls no matter how powerful they are, so he chose mine in order to help the toads in achieving world domination.

I reincarnated as a peasant from the fallen house of knatterjack during the end of the reign of the corrupt toad monarchy under the name grenouille Lanis, and now I'm one of the top generals under a great leader by the name of Tadpoleon. I tried to search for Awe, and I found that she reincarnated and died as a saint in the hundred years war between us and the serpents, a few centuries ago. I hope she's well, since I honestly do miss her...

No time for sentimentalities though, since now it's the time to conquer the penguin empire and I've been chosen to lead the front by the side of Tadpoleon to overthrow its leader Wing.

I know it's not like me to become a part of the military, but you do what you gotta do, so Long live the toadlion republic, and down with the penguins!

Ribbit!
