Rata and the Waka

we have been doing some critical thinking with the story of Rata and his Waka

Week 1 100 WC

It was a stormy night, I was going out to sea. I was going for my country for the war. Five hours later boom!  Hurry, Hurry! Boom the blood was as crimson as a poppy. I frantically shouted to my brother.  I saw my brother and he told me if I die to please tell my mum and dad that  I love them.

It started to get misty and I could not see.  BOOM!  What was that?  There was a big hole with one grave. Luke was carved on the grave, 2018 that's now, I was confused. I got shot twice.
