Once upon a time, in a certain place, there lived three ogres who were the best of friends.

Red Ogre, Blue Ogre, and Yellow Ogre.

The three of them always played happily together, but Red Ogre longed to befriend the humans. However, the humans lived in fear of the ogres.

One day, Blue Ogre spoke up.

"I'll pretend to go on a rampage in the village. Then you two can step in and protect the village. If you do that, the humans will be grateful and won't be afraid of you anymore."

The other two were hesitant, but Blue Ogre pleaded.

"Please, do this for me. And... will you still be my friends after this?"

They replied that of course they would, and the plan was a success. Red Ogre and Yellow Ogre were accepted by the humans for stopping the rampaging Blue Ogre, but Blue Ogre could no longer go near the village.

Humans began to visit Red Ogre's house. At first, Yellow Ogre played along with them, but eventually, Yellow Ogre became worried about Blue Ogre and began to visit his home instead.

As time passed, Red Ogre suddenly remembered.

"Come to think of it, I haven't seen those two lately. I should go check on them!"

First, he went to Yellow Ogre's house. Unconsciously, he had gone to pick up the one he loved first. He knocked on the door, but no one was there. "They must be over at Blue Ogre's house!"

He arrived at Blue Ogre's house, but the door was shut tight and no one was around. Checking inside, he found a letter.

To Red Ogre: I believe that if I stay with you, the humans will mistake you for a bad ogre too, so I am leaving. Yellow Ogre is coming with me. Please do not look for us. —Blue Ogre

Yes, Blue Ogre had left the mountains, taking Yellow Ogre with him.

Red Ogre gasped. In exchange for gaining human friends, he had lost his best friend and the one he loved.

This story takes place years later, now that the three of them have grown up and turned 19.
