There was a man who had sugar cane. One morning when he went to see
his field, he saw that some one had stolen his sugar cane. Then one
night he hid to watch.
He saw many beautiful women come and hang their clothing on the
fence. He took the clothing of one and made a loud noise. The other
women took their clothing and flew away, but the one remaining could
not fly because her wings were fastened to her clothing.
She said to the man, "Give me my clothing, because I am a star and wish
to fly away to the sky." But the man said, "I will not give you your
clothing until you marry me." Then they married, but he did not give
her clothing to her. But the man hid the clothing under the dakalan
[11] when she was not looking.
From that time until three years (afterwards) they were married,
and they had two children. One day the woman started to change the
dakalan; while changing the dakalan she found her clothing.
Then one of the children died. The mother continued to come to visit
the remaining child in the night, but would not come in the daytime.
One night the mother of the child wanted to take it to the sky, but
the father saw his wife. That time they quarreled and agreed to split
the child in two. The mother took one half and made it alive; when
the half had been made alive it called loudly for the other half. But
the other half was rotten because the father was not able to make it
live. Then one night the mother made it alive and said, "Answer your
half." Then it answered, but not loudly, because it was rotten.
It became the Little Thunder, and the other half became the Big
Thunder.
