Alex Lagge's India Adventure

The year was 2035; it had been eight months since talks had broken down between the two new American countries. Tensions were at an all time high and both sides knew that war would be coming soon. The two leaders of each side would never see eye to eye. Captain Gomez knew this. He had been training with his company for the past 2 years as he had predicted the decline of America and wanted to get ready for the war. His company was the most advanced of the entire country. They had been in many "pre-war" missions where they assassinated political opponents, carried out attacks against supply lines and factories. He looked over his company "Men, we just got word that the real battle is about to start. The enemy's president has sent a message to the capitol. She said that we would all be finished and completely wiped out by her large superior army. That's why General Hyde has instructed us to make a daring attack on the capital at the very start of the war. We have ...

I am at the point where Amba finally gets revenge for on Bhishma. It only took her what seemed like 1000 years hahah. The battle between them was described as so spectacular that both armies could do nothing, but watch. When you actually read the story you barley get any imagery. This is something that I haven't liked about theses readings. I try to add good imagery to make up for the lack of it in the reading. I mean the books literally like oh Bhishma gets shot with an arrow and slowly dies. That doesn't tell you much about the battle at all. If a battle went on for hours you would want to hear or get it described whats going on. This will be the final part of my stories I will use.

I enjoy this part of the Mahabharata because I enjoy the battles and the parts leading up to war the best. Krishna is more that welcoming the fight. He uses good descriptive language about burning up the army like grass.Kind of funny to think about, but I saw a video on twitter where some people light their grass on fire when playing with fireworks and the grass is burning very fast. So i can see how this will cause some serious damage. I really like the way they have their similes and metaphors back in the olden days because they are much different from what we would use in modern times, but some of them are timeless. Duryodhana has a much larger army, but a bigger army doesn't mean success. A good story idea will be about a small army defeating a large army. Next comes a beautiful song that is the most popular part of the whole story. I think it would be fun to have a song played for th...
