Narrative

Once upon a time there were two massive forests with a big awa separating the two forests, there was also two tribes one was called the Hunua Tribe and the Waitakare Tribe, one day the Waitakare Prince decided that he was hungry so he went down to the awa to catch some Kai but he forgot to bring his matou so he jumped into the river and picked up some food and put it in his kite then the Hunua Princess came down to the river as well the prince thought she was pretty so he asked her if she wanted to come back to his tribe with him she said yes and went willingly to his tribe but when the Princess's mum, Chief Dennis Hunua found out that the Princess had gone to the Waitakare tribe she was furious because she thought that they had kidnapped her and taken her to their tribe so she gathered up all the patupaiaretie in her tribe and trained them for battle when they were ready they marched to the Waitakare forest to battle for their Princess but the Waitakare tribe saw them coming to they quickly got ready for battle as well, they had a massive war and they made so much noise they woke mataahu and that's how all the hills and mountains were created but still they fought on but no one could win. Then they found out that the Princess chose to go to the other tribe so they stopped fighting and went back home.

I found this quite easy because I could remember most of the story but because I could only remember some of it I had to make up some.
