While Rama is the king of his country he is preparing for a sacred horse ritual that will sacrifice the fallen horse but not after his sons capture the horse. Rama sends a man to save the sacred horse but he is killed by the sons as well. Soon after Lakshama is sent to retrieve the horse but he is challenged to a duel and

Story Week 5

We open this story with the freshest face in all of golf. He is the new comer of the year for the state of Texas and his name is Garett Reband. He has soured to the top of the golf junior rankings while only having a mother to support him. His father had left his mother before he was born and went on his own journey of life. Garett never knew who is father was and did not know if he ever would. He used all of his pent up anger to play great golf and demolish all of his opponents on the golf course. He was still very young but he had his sights set on beating the number one player in the world and would not let anyone stop him. The best player in the world at this time was Quade Cummins from a small town in Oklahoma and while his journey to the top was a lonely one he was still the best. Little did people know that this new upcoming player was the son of the famous Quade Cummins. Quade was the man that left his girlfriend to pursue his golf career and did not want any distractions because he knew he could be the best. As the season continued Garett continued to progress in the rankings on to the top but knew beating the best player in the world would be no small feat. All this time Garett's mom and at one time Quade's girlfriend knew that these two would meet up one day and she was dreading their encounter. She had never told Garett that Quade was his dad but knew she would have to. She sat Garett down one day and explained to him where he came from and where he got his ability as a golfer. This really upset him and he wanted to quit the sport that had given him so much because of who his dad was but his mother instructed him otherwise. He continued his way until the day came where he would play Quade for the best player in the world. Quade at this time still did not know that Garett was his son and Garett waited until the first tee to tell him who he was. Garett introduced himself as Quade's son and Quade could not believe it. His head started racing as he never knew that this was his son and it completely killed his game for the day. Quade played awful and Garett breezed to victory to become the best player in the world and overcome his dad that left him so long ago.

Reading Notes: Week 5

I decided to choose the comic books for my reading and my first one was Rama retold from the Ramayana and it mainly focused on the Rama side of the story to the Ramayana. It talked through how Rama became who he was and it started out in his younger years. He was born with his brother and they continue to talk about the same story that we read last week. Rama and Lackshmana being training and fighting opponents that become no match for them. They are defeating many opponents and that starts to create some bad guys that don't like the pair. As they are making enemies of others that list keeps growing by talk amongst the people. This is where Ravana comes with the golden deer to sucker Sita into the trap by making Rama leave her side. Hanuman is guarding Sita but his tail is caught on fire making Lanka catch on fire. This forces the whole town to go into turmoil and making it possible for Sita to be saved after she was kidnapped by Ravana. Ravana refuses a peace offering sent by Rama and this leads to Rama coming in with full force to save his wife. Rama is finally able to kill Ravana by shooting him in his naval and thus killing him completely. Rama is finally made king after all and he has won his battles.
