Elinia's Hated War

 Owa ,Owa! What's that? A battle cry!!! I buried myself down in my blankets. I knew this was coming all along so why am crying and burying myself? I thought to myself because it means war and I hate war. Why,oh,why did Pa have to make war again! I hate having war because my brother Asija (meaning brother and a great sage) will be gone (he is a very brave warrior) and I hate worrying about him dying. For the days we are at war I think I will just stay in my chickee. Here comes Chhya (my 3 year old sister whose name means shadow) I don't want to let her know I'm worried because then she will come over with her big brown eyes and say "You okay Elinia? "and I get embarrassed by that. Here comes my pa (the chief) ,I will now complain to him about this war. "Pa why dod we have to go to war with the Creek tribe ?" I said "We dod because we think they stole 21 pounds of deer meat " Pa said. "You think?" I said "Well yes" Pa foolishly said. "Please stop this war for me only because they might have not stolen the meat and because it's my birthday tomorrow" I said "I'll see what I can do" Pa said "Please?" I said.
