Rama and squad in exile

Everyone is pissed that Rama is exiled, and the squad decides to join him in the forest. Dasharatha dies from a broken heart when Rama leaves. Bharata learns about what's going on, and gets pissed. He asks Rama to come home, but Rama says he can't cause promises and whatnot. Bharata explains that "the sandals" are for the true king and decides to rule in an outside village and won't go back to Ayodhya until Rama is back. Rama and squad walk around the forest and run into a sage's wife who gives Sita jewelry and Jatayu (the big bird) makes a pact with the squad to help out. Shurpanakha finds the squad and tries to get with Rama. Lakshmana captures the homewrecker stalking Sita and cuts off her ears and nose. She asks her brothers to kill the squad, but squad wins. She runs to Lanka to tell Ravana. Ravana has made gods his servants, and Ravana goes to kill Rama for what he did to his sister, but falls in love with Sita. Ravana gets his uncle to turn into a deer and distract Rama while Ravana tries to seduce Sita. When the deer (demon) dies, it cries in Rama's voice which distracts Lakshmana.

You know I had to do it to them  Photo from October 2017 Hey everyone, Matthew Boensch (pronounced like "bench") here! I am a sophomore and an MIS major in Price college. I am originally from the south Philly/Jersey area, but have been living in North Dallas for the past couple of years. While I have picked up "Y'all" while living in Texas, much of my Northeastern slang has not left me and tends to come out when I am talking casually. I listen to all music, and I mean all music, so if you have any obscure or unpopular songs or genres you like, please drop a link cause I love discovering new stuff to bump to! While my music goes from Japanese EDM to ancient Mongolian throat singing, the stuff I listen to most of the time is underground and old school hip-hop, as well as lofi. I love playing all sports, even if I'm not too good at them. I played Offensive line in high school, as well competing in field events during track season. I am a huge super hero

Week 6 Story: Give Them An Offer They Cant Refuse

What I imagined the Mafia to look like in this story Source "Visit Panipinto, the biggest town in little Italy!" read the run down sign at the edge of the city. This sight was not an uncommon one, as the whole country turned to hell after Y2K2. With the absence of technology that humans had come so dependent on, the whole world seemed to fall apart. Where governments once rained now belonged to smaller groups, and tribal warfare was common.  "Mama, are we going to be safe?" asked Michael, one of the small boys in Tailia's nomadic group. With a heavy sigh and the best forced smile she could manage, Talia told her children and the others in her group that they would look for food and water in the town of Panipinto and that everything would be okay. Talia felt uncomfortable lying to the others, especially her own children, but then again she wasn't 100% comfortable being the leader of this group either so she deemed it necessary to keep spirits h
