It was another normal day in wartwood after the Mushroom zombie incident that Hop pop had unleash. But now today something big was going on today, and the froggy family wanted the human kids up and ready to go.
Entering the center of the town square, David and Anne were surprised to see almost everyone in Wartwood there. Man, what is with this crowd? Are fruit flies on sale or something? The Thai girl said with a giggle. No. Today's the day they announce the Frog of the Year award Hop pop said Frog of the what now? David asked before Sprig hopped on him. Frog of the hoppin' Year, David. Every year, the town gets together and votes on the frog they think best embodies the values of Wartwood." Sprig said, hanging off the Columbian boy's chest. Really? Why is this the first time we're hearing about it? Anne asked. We all voted last week. Don't you remember?" Polly asked while being carried in her bucket by Hop Pop "Huh. Not at all. Wonder why?" Anne said wondered why she didn't know about Frog of the Year.
*Flashback*
On the day the voting polls were opened for Frog of the Year, Anne was sitting with her legs on the couch, wearing earphones and listening to rock music, meanwhile David was sitting on the other side, with his shield over his head, sleeping after having just come back from town.
Hop Pop, Sprig, and Polly approached Anne from behind as music played. Anne, David, we're gonna go vote for Frog of the Year now. Wanna come? The elderly frog asked "'No, you'll never make us go!'" Anne sang to the song. Okay, then. Hop Pop said, rolling his eyes "Come on, kids. Let's give these two some... Alone time." *He gave David a wink, not seeing that he was sleeping under his shield* I don't get it, Sprig said as he and the family walked out.
*End of flashback*
Anne thought about it, and she did recall hearing a voice while she was listening to her music. The conversation was then cut when they noticed Mayor Toadstool walking up to the stage and standing behind the podium. "All right, folks. It's time!" He said with a chuckle. As you all know, the Frog of the Year goes to the most selfless, noble, blah, blah, blah... Let's get on with it. *He slammed his fists on the podium and held his hand out*. Toadie hopped over and gave the mayor the envelope with the winner's name. Toadstool opened it and started announcing the lucky frog. "And this year's Frog of the Year award goes to—" he gasped and looked at the name again closely. "Well, this can't be right. Anne Boonchuy?" *Everyone in the audience gasped in shock. David's eyes widened, and look at his friend, who was just as surprised as he was*. A second later, the people around them burst into cheers, except for the Thai girl becoming frog of the year. Anne looked at David, wondering what she should do. For a moment, the Columbian boy looked like he wanted to tell her something, but he just smiled and grabbed her hand as Anne blushed, David pulled her along. "Come on, Anne. Let's get you up there!" He exclaimed, pushing frogs out of his way as he helped Anne get to the stage.
While watching the humans, Hop Pop felt his eyes start tearing up. A Plantar, Frog of the Year. I'm so proud. He cried, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye. He tried flicking it off, only for the teardrop to get stuck to his finger.
Getting on the stage first, while ignoring the annoyed look from Toadstool, David pulled Anne up and let go of her hands. Giving her two thumbs up and a big smile of encouragement, he stepped back and let Anne face the cheering crowd. Still blushing while rubbing the hand he held, Anne stared out at the audience with a look of amazement. Everyone in Wartwood, from the tallest to the smallest, was giving her cheers and appalls. They were doing it because everyone voted for her to be Frog of the Year. They did it because they all must love her. This made Anne feel extremely touched as she smiled and placed her hands over her heart.
Wow! Thanks, everyone. I don't know what to say. Anne said, almost feeling like crying "I do." And then the moment was ruined by Toadstool. "Are you people out of your frog-damn minds? How did her name even get on the polls?" You got a problem with that? David asked, frowning at the mayor "My problem is that she doesn't deserve to host a party!" Toadstool said Party? What party? Anne asked, excitedly. Oh, it's one of our oldest traditions, Toadie said stepping in to further explain the position to the Thai girl. He then pulled out a scroll with 'Ye Olde Frog of the Year Bash!' written on it, with a frog in a jester's hat blowing a horn, a thumbs up, and three stitched balloons.
