As the boy grew older, he became more and more like his father, strong, powerful and able to beat any boy in the village. The worst of it all, he was getting more attention than his father. Masala noted this and became more envious of his son every day.

One day, at the tender age of two, Masala’s son caught a coconut crab and spent many hours playing with it. He thoroughly enjoyed playing with the crab, but he became so engrossed in an activity that he did not notice the crab disappearing into a hole near a coconut tree. When the child noticed the crab had run away, he noticed a hole near the coconut tree and tried reaching down into it, with all his strength, he tried so hard to get his pet out. It was very hard to capture his pet. With his strength that he had inherited, he pulled the coconut tree completely out of the ground to retrieve his pet crab.

Masala saw what his son was doing, that his envy came to a boil. Before the father realized what he was doing, running and yelling with all his hatred and fury, the father was chasing after his son to annihilate the boy, who was his arch enemy. The boy was surprise at the change in his father’s behavior. The youngster had been so used to being the proud son of his father, that little had he known that his proud father was going to turn into his worst enemy.

The son sprang up and ran as fast as his little legs could carry him to the northern tip of the island. He took one great leap off the cliff and landed on the island of Rota, which is forty miles away from Guahan.

To this day, the footprint of the child, called, "The Child Point,(Puntan Patgon)," could still be seen on the northern tip of Guahan. The identity of the boy is generally believed to be 'Taga', the Chief who ruled over the Northern Marianas Islands [Chamorro Archipelago].
