==Kamapua’a and Pele==
There are contradictory stories depicting the relationship between Kamapua’a and Pele.  In some versions they are described as enemies (Hawaiian Romance), in others they are depicted as lovers or husband and wife (Hawaiian folk tales).  One story of how Pele and Kamapua’a met starts off with Kamapua’a on a journey to Pele's home.  Kamapua’a tried to impress Pele and her sisters by looking like a handsome man.  He impressed her sisters but Pele is not impressed, instead she insults Kamapua’a by calling him a pig.  This upsets Kamapua’a, which then turned their conversation into an argument of insults to each other.  Kamapua’a tried to get closer to Pele but Pele sent her flames to him leaving him in a pit of fire.  Kamapua’a strikes back by summoning his sister Makahanaloa; she puts out the fire with fog and rain, and hogs run all over the place. All that is left are the fire sticks; Pele accepts her defeat.   Kamapua’a takes the sticks and divides the districts giving Pele the districts overrun with lava flows; he takes the Windward districts with the most rain.  Kamapua’a leaves Hawaii and starts a family in the ocean where he belongs; Pele now loves Kamapua’a and tries to get him back with a love chant.<ref>Martha Beckwith, ''Hawaiian Mythology'' (University of Hawaii Press, 1940), 205-206.</ref> As Kamapua’a lives his life in the ocean, he still watches over his side of the island.  He ventures through the ocean in his new form the humu-humu-nuku-nuku apua’a.  He never steps foot on the island again because he doesn't want to run into Pele.<ref>“The Legend of Kamapua’a,” LBD Coffee Winter Newsletter, http://www.coffeetimes.com/kamapuaa.htm, 2006, retrieved on 16 November 2016, last modified 2006.</ref> Kamapuaʹa later returned to the island as a handsome man and made love with Pele.<ref>Lilikalā K.
