Our troop has been attacked by the Roc - A story

 


On Tuesday I along with my troop of 5 members started our journey from Europe. We headed with three boats. Two more people were there With me and others were in another boat. We went towards Madagascar. We all were scared because we heard from people that there is a very huge bird which can even lift an elephant. When we started our journey the sky was clear and it was a sunny day. We all were happy that we were going somewhere to earn for our family, especially James and  Peter. They both were best friends. Suddenly The sky became dark and the water waves went very high. As our boat was made by me especially so it was a bit different from other boats. It had a  particular area for storage and for sleeping. So we went inside and had a good nap. 

When we woke up the sky was clear but we all could see that far away from us there were dark clouds with heavy rains which were coming towards us. Everyone got scared. Slowly slowly the clouds brought heavy rain. The waves were so high that We thought now or then our boat would turn. It was almost afternoon. The rain was still heavy. Then all of us saw something coming towards us. As if it was finding something to eat and where it could get a shelter. Slowly and steadily it was coming towards us, as it came towards us it grew bigger and bigger. And finally, it was in front of us. It was 10 times bigger than an elephant, it had big wings and claws. From the body structure, we understood that it was a Roc bird. I could feel the ground slipping under my foot. Everyone was terrified. 

We were scared that what if it saw us and attacked us! And that only happened it came towards us. The air coming from its flapping wings was very fast. It came towards the other boat in which James and Peter were there. He came and grabbed James and went very high. He shouted and asked for help again and again. And then it dropped him from a certain height. And coincidentally he fell near our boat. I told everyone to jump into the sea immediately and hide under the boat so the bird couldn’t see us. We all did that and we also rescued James. We waited until the Roc bird went. When the bird went we came up and dried our clothes and consoled ourselves. 

Now it was nighttime so we went inside to sleep but none of us was asleep. We all were thinking of that terrifying time. In the morning we reached the bank of the sea of Madagascar. We all tried our best to forget those bad memories.

But definitely, I could say this was a horrible journey.

“Pass the Quaffle to me fast...” Ronald screamed angrily. A Quidditch match was going on between wizards and witches. In the game 7 from each team is required and there are two quarters, each of 30 minutes. It is played on a Quidditch pitch of oval shape. The pitch was surrounded by wizards and witches. Minerva, the captain of the wizard's team, was flying in the Quidditch pitch. “If Michael would have passed the Quaffle to Ronald we would have won 10 points,” Minerva shouted. Michael was a very egoistic person. “I could have scored a goal. I am the best Chaser in the first year.” Michael said. Michael missed two other chances of scoring a goal. They didn’t get any points in the first quarter. Minerva got angry. She said to Michael “You are not the only one who is playing the match. You need to believe in your teammates.” The second quarter started. Now the scores were 10 – 0. Again Michael took the Quaffle but this time he believed in his teammates. He passed the Quaffle to Ronald...

The Uniform Civil Code in India

Image
The Uniform Civil Code (UCC) in India is a proposal to have one law for all citizens, regardless of religion, for matters like marriage, divorce, inheritance, and adoption. Currently, different religions in India follow their own personal laws, which can lead to inequality, especially for women. Key Points About UCC in India: Constitutional Background : The Indian Constitution (Article 44) suggests a UCC but doesn’t make it compulsory. It aims to bring all communities under one law to promote equality. Religious Personal Laws : Currently, each religion has its own set of laws. For example, Muslim personal law allows polygamy, while Hindu laws are more progressive. The UCC would aim to standardize these laws, but it could be seen as interfering with religious practices. Gender Equality : A major argument for UCC is to ensure equal rights for women . In some personal laws, women face unfair treatment (like unequal inheritance rights or restricted divorce rights). A UCC could provide equ...
