Creative Writing: Battle Of Nagaina

Imagine being stranded in the most bizarre place on Earth alone and with nothing to survive with. In the two excerpts, we will be talking about, they both share the same basis stated above with its protagonists. The two excerpts we will be talking about are the stories Hatchet and Julie from the Wolves. Both protagonists, Miyax from Julie of the Wolves and Brian from Hatchet are both stuck in the wildness and have to solve difficult situations to survive at the very least. In the excerpt, Julie of the Woods by Jean Craighead George, Miyax is stuck in the outskirts of the cold wilderness in Alaska with no one after her father has not returned from sea. She has not been able to catch food and rely on the wolves to catch her food, but the wolves have been ignoring her since. Now it is up to Miyax to develop a way, for which the wolves will bring her food for her survival. Following Julie of the Wolves comes Hatchet. Hatchet shares a similar fate of being abandoned with the protagonist Brian, who shortly figures out that for his carelessness, his food and shelter has been vandalized by a mere skunk. If he wishes not to defend himself, he will never

My favorite character in the story “Rikki-Tikki-Tavi”, is Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. The author of this story is Rudyard Kipling. Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is the hero in the story, or the protagonist. He is a brave and kind mongoose who is afraid of nothing. Everyone looks for him to beat the bad guy in the story. Rikki-Tikki-Tavi is heroic, kind-hearted, and brave.

Nagaina was very misunderstood. Everyone talks about how she was such a terrible “villain”, but in reality, she had her reasons. Think about it. It is in a snakes nature to want to be all powerful or in control. At first the snakes in the garden were just being evil, but after Rikki-Tikki got there, there was purpose behind it. Rikki Tikki killed Karait. After that Nagaina knew he was a threat. Then Nagaina and Nag plotted against Rikki’s life, and Rikki killed Nag. Nagaina’s life mate. She was heartbroken and in mourning when Rikki killed almost all her unborn babies! “For

Rikki is shown as a heroic and fearless character in this narration. “If Rikki-tikki had only known, he was doing a much more dangerous thing than fighting Nag, for Karait is so small and can turn so quickly that unless Rikki bit him close to the back of the head, he would get the return stroke in his eye or his lip”(pg. 10). This is important because Rikki is fighting Karait to save Teddy and this means that he is risking his life to save him. That is that

In the short story, “A Worn Path,” Eudora Welty introduces an elderly, African American, woman named Phoenix Jackson, whom for two or three years has made a long quest to town to get medicine for her ill grandson.

Eudora Welty uses these obstacles to demonstrate the theme of her story, which is that Phoenix’s ambition/hope was the leading role in her preserving.

A mongoose is a small carnivorous animal that is native to Africa and Asia. Rikki-tikki-tavi is a mongoose that lives in Segowlee cantonment, India. He was born to kill cobras and he protects the human family. Mongooses are natural predators to snakes and are very curious. Rikki-tikki-tavi is washed away from his mongoose family by a summer flood and humans save him. A human family saves him. He defends Teddy and his parents, who are humans, from cobras that are very dangerous at the bite. The “Rikki-tikki-tavi” movie and book of “Rikki-tikki-tavi” are similar and different because Rikki-tikki destroys Nagaina’s eggs, Teddy gives Rikki-tikki a treat, and Darzee sings his songs about Rikki-tikki’s triumphant

The way one portrays his or her self can very quite differently from person to person. Clothes, makeup and jewelry are all superficial ways one can depict one’s self. In contrast, one can portray him or herself on a deeper more intimate level. Establishing the way a person wants to be portrayed is like learning to walk, it takes small productive steps to gain the strength and knowledge to get to the desired destination. Trials and tribulations illustrate and shape one’s true self. Setting, income, and love can also indicate why a person is the way he or she is and the portrayal of him or herself. Throughout Legacies by Jan Zlotnik Schmidt and Lynne Crockett the theme of self-portrayal is laced through almost every fiction and nonfiction story.

Many people say that a dog is a man’s best friend. In the short story “Tapka,” Tapka is a dog owned by the Nahumovsky couple that lived in the same complex as Mark’s family and was taken care by him.

The story was in the perspective of six-year-old Mark and his experiences dog-sitting Tapka. David Bezmozgis expresses the main character, Mark, and his love for his neighbor’s dog, Tapka throughout the story by being by her side

Rikki-Tikki Tavi found himself in a good place with a human family, but in the garden there were two snakes. Rikki- Tikki made his goal to get rid of nag and his wife. Rikki- Tikki killed Nag first, then Nag’s wife. When Rikki-Tikki went to save Teddy, he crushed all of Nagaina’s eggs except for one. Rikki-Tikki was so determined to accomplish his goal that he would die to do it. He went against his animal instincts that he jumped in the snake hole with Nagaina just to kill her. At the end Rikki-Tikki learned to never give up on his dreams until you accomplish

Give me the last of my eggs, and I will go away and never come back,” she said, lowering her hood.This is important because this shows how nagaina was trying to kill teddy and his family for revenge. But when Rikki came with an egg she lost it and pleated for it. his is also important because even though she didn’t show a little bit of braveness she still tried to be when fighting Rikki. Evidence of Nagaina’s character traits (pg.27).Again and again and again she struck, and each time her head came with a whack on the matting of the veranda and she gathered herself together like a watch spring.This is important because it shows` how Nagaina trying to bite Rikki but failing at doing it.This is also important because from my side of view i feel like nagaina was trying but was a little scared The following examples of Nagaina is that not only was she trying to get revenge but she was also scared a little and wasn’t expecting rikki would find her eggs.

Rikki Tikki is a courageous and loyal character in this story. To illustrate, Rikki fought and killed the deadly Karait to ensure that Teddy did not get harmed (para 34). Therefore, great loyalty and bravery is clearly evident here, with Rikki Tikki willing to fight a snake that could kill him in an instant, all for the little boy’s safety.This loyalty and love for his family led to this act of bravery on Rikki’s part. Furthermore,

The climax of the story was when Rikki wanted to gain leverage on Nagaina, so Rikki silently crushed all her snake eggs but one. As soon as Nagaina heard that Rikki had crushed all her eggs, she broke off in a sprint to Rikki. Nagaina and Rikki began to fight a dangerous battle, but then Nagaina suddenly slid down he hole and Rikki followed he

“Now I have Nagaina to settle with and she will be worse than 5 Nags.” Rikki Tikki thought.(23) Nagaina is so powerful, and so strong that even the snake- killing Ricki was a little afraid to face her. Nagaina had such force when she striked, and so much control over her victims, that all were very afraid in her presence. Nagaina was so used to ruling over the bungalow’s garden, that she filled up with pure hatred when Rikki took away her position.“But are you sure there is anything to be gained by killing?” said

My favorite character from unit one was Rikki-Tikki, from Rudyard Kipling’s Rikki Tikki Tavi. I liked Rikki-Tikki because he was brave, selfless, and also caring. These are all important traits. Kipling developed Rikki’s traits early in the story. At first, he seemed helpless, especially when he was saved by Teddy and his family. However, soon afterward, you could tell Rikki- Tikki was courageous and willing to fight for them. Rikki was very loving to the family. Teddy’s mother was concerned for Teddy at first, but she eventually realized Rikki-Tikki could protect him. I would probably react the same way. RIkki-Tikki loved the family so much he risked his life multiple times to protect them. When Nagaina got into the veranda during breakfast,

The silence was eerie, even the birds in the trees had appeared to have fallen silent. The young girl leant against the tree, pressing her body tight against the trunk in an attempt to make herself as invisible as possible as she took the time to catch her breath. She peered around to check if the coast was clear. It was.. Well at least she desperately hoped so. The next section of cover was only a few metres away, but even a few metres left her with no choice but to break cover. Taking the opportunity she ran as though her life depended on it. Ducking low into a cluster of bushes, panting ever so softly. The realisation hit her. The realisation that her footsteps would of sounded loud and heavy on the forest floor, strewn with dry leaves and
