 * __ The Invasion __**
 * Hello there my name is Ebstone, and today I’m going to tell you about when my village was attacked. It was a cold and rainy day in Babylon when nimbus clouds drifted in the air. Years ago when I was only two years, there was a great war between the Ur worriers and the Assyrians worriers. On that very day our village, Ur came to an end. But while the war was going on, my family and I escaped with our wagon. After days past my family and I stumbled upon a great city called Babylon. When we entered the city the king and guards welcomed us and we became refugees. **
 * As years past, we feet in and lived our lives. My dad became one of the guards and as time passed the time for our king came to an end but before the king’s time was over he called all the priests and my dad in the same room. As the king formed a bond with my dad, when the king knew it was his time to go, he told the priests that my dad would become the next king of Babylon. That very same day the king died and my dad was crowned the new king of Babylon. With anxiety I was happy that my mom Sara gave birth to my two baby brothers Maidus and Alex. Five years later in the morning I heard the gates pounding and the sound of horses clenching the ground as men aggressively yelled their battle cries. **
 * When I heard that noise I remembered the day when our village Ur, was attacked by the Assyrians. When we could least expect it we saw a huge fire ball coming right for the palace. Right after that the guards blew the emergency horn which meant all the worriers had to gear up. As my dad told me this was his destiny to protect the Babylonian kingdom. As the worriers geared up and said bye to their families I saw that my destiny was to lead the Babylonian kingdom to safety. Before the battle, my dad gave a speech to the worriers and when they finish they left. **
 * As the worriers fought, I could hear the swords slinging men breathe there last breath, as finally our solders gave up and the Assyrian leader ruled Babylon. When the fight was happening there was one thing the king never new, that before my dad left he gave me the key to what the Assyrian worriers wanted. The key that my dad gave me was the pink panther diamond the king was searching miraculously for. As the gate of Babylon came thrashing down the Assyrian solders had taken over the Babylon kingdom. As time passed villagers were forced to become slaves as the king ruled two kingdoms. People were forced to make statues of the king to show their respect him. Days later, the king’s child died and the king decided to kill all slaves to show his great power. As the rain poured and blood drenching everywhere, I knew it meant death was around the corner. The only thing I remember was when the solders came into the house pushed me down and the next thing I heard was my mom drenching her blue eyes with tiers. When I heard that, I looked and there in my mother’s arms, I saw that they had killed my little brother’s Alex and Maidus. Immediately I run next door and saw they had also killed my best friends Charlie and Andres. **
 * Right at that moment I went into the house and told my mom that I loved her. Right after I told her that, her blue eyes bloomed with wonders. **
