"—Let us go, Hook, the deal is off, we aren't working for you anymore!" Zidane yelled. "Hoo hoo," Hook bent down to Zidane's level and blew a puff of cigar smoke in his face. "Now why would I do that, lad? What I would be willing to do is let you two scoundrels go on the account you bring me Peter's head." "We would never do that!" Garnet yelled. "Oh, then would you rather be Tick-Tock's next snack, because I can have that arranged. Though it would be such a great loss for a pretty lass like you to become gator chow, maybe we can keep the girl, huh boys?" The pirate crew started laughing and cheering. "Talk to her like that again and you'll be losing the right hand of yours next!" Zidane snapped. "And how do you plan on doing that?" …show more content…
Garnet summoned her staff. "Of course." With the three of them working together, Zidane, Garnet, and Roxas were able to knock out Hook's crew one by one, all that was left was Hook himself who was certainly no pushover. Luckily, when it came down to the last man, Xion finally showed herself, her keyblade glowing from the tip down to the handle. Xion swayed her keyblade to her shoulder. "Watch out guys!" The three jumped out of the way while Hook stood out in the open, confused by their sudden retreat. "Zantetsuken!" She yelled. Faster than the blink of an eye, Xion's keyblade slashed Captain Hook and he toppled over like a burnt out lamp. Zidane wasted no time in tying him up with ropes and dragging him over to the plank for Tick-Tock's dinner, when he was finished, he wiped his hands together before stretching them out behind his back. "Alright, now that he's been done in, guess we should say thanks now, we really do owe you guys one." "Yes, we can't express our gratitude enough, thank you," Garnet added. "Hey, don't mention it," Roxas said. "We're happy to help," Xion said. "What're your names anyways?" Zidane asked. "Xion." "And I'm Roxas." "Well I'm Zidane." "And I'm Garnet. It's a pleasure to meet you all, truly." "I think we got off to the wrong foot yesterday, Xion, so mind filling us in on what you know about us that we don't." "Oh, sorry about the mix up. Eiko told me both of your names, I probably should've said that first." "What,

It’s dangerous work yes, but it’s vital, and it does come with perks. Education can mean life or death in such an unpredictable world, and Father says that when everyone in the church is educated in such things as reading and counting, let alone the full breadth of a messenger’s training, then the church is better for it.
The Odyssey , is the second epic written by Homer. It talks about Odysseus being ripped away from his homeland, Ithaca, and trying to return back home after the Trojan War. He is known as a heroic figure, the King of Ithaca and an epic hero. When he was torn away from Ithaca, he had to leave behind his people including his family to fight in the Trojan War. On his way home he encountered many obstacles, monsters and other creatures. He finally returns home from his long journey home 20 years later; to find suitors were trying to take his home and wife. Most people will say that Penelope had it rough being by herself for 20 years never knowing if Odysseus would ever return, but Odysseus never knew if he would make it to live through the next day. Odysseus had suffered more than Penelope when Odysseus was dragged to Troy to fight in the Trojan war.
Heroes, as shown in literature, often undertake the most difficult tasks and place themselves in mortal danger in order to bring back, for themselves and their societies, both knowledge and treasure. Their stories follow “Hero Journey.” The Odyssey, as the epic story of the hero Odysseus, follows closely the complete cycle of a Hero Journey, both as a physical and as a psychological undertaking. The Hero Journey, used as a framework for both Odysseus’ physical and mental journeys, serves to bind the two together. Each of Odysseus’s physical difficulties can be viewed as a metaphor for a psychological hardship that he must overcome, and by overcoming these hardships, Odysseus matures—achieving a more complete understanding of himself and
Many years after the end of the Trojan War, Odysseus still hasn’t returned home to Ithaka. Many believe that he is dead, but the author lets us know that he is being held as a sex captive on the goddess Kalypso’s island. Kalypso has no plans of letting him go to return home either.
Many forms of popular culture today are inspired by themes, characters, and other references in various types of classical literature. John Denver's song 'Calypso'; is about the relationship between men and women, and he bases this comparison on the relationship between Kalypso and Odysseus in Homer's the Odyssey. In 'Calypso'; Denver portrays women in general as being superior to men by using the beautiful and enchanting goddess, Kalypso, from Homer's epic. John Denver encompasses all women in his song by providing Kalypso as a universal symbol. Along with the relationship between Odysseus and Kalypso and men and women, there are other interpreted allusions from the Odyssey to Kalypso's song.
The Odyssey is a a beautiful Epic about a man who has hope through his entire journey.When we see him on Calypso he has been to sea for a while, while he wants to go home he continues to go to her bed each night,however regrets it in the morning.One part about this journey that sticks out is why its taking so long.It wouldn't have taken this long is he didn't poke out Poseidon's son (Polyphemus) eye,which let to the Polyphemus praying that Odysseus does return home he just happens to return home alone through treacherous journey.This led to the twenty year journey.
“Well let's get you a uniform no blood of mine should be dressed in rags like that.” He hands another german uniform. “ I suggest you catch some sleep we have a lot of kil- i mean work to do I’ll show you to your room.”
The Odyssey Rough Draft When reading an Epic, it's important to know that most stories are about a hero’s journey. A hero’s journey is a story of how a hero becomes the hero, the Odyssey is a great example of this. At first, Odysseus is a selfish and cold-hearted brute but as time goes on, Odysseus learns from his mistakes and becomes a better hero. So let's explore Odysseus’ adventure to be a hero.
Luka just nods his head, I speak up. "He also has a clubbed left foot" I say.
“It doesn’t matter what you scored the last time you played here it’s a new day and you will do amazing” added the other teammate.
“Well, in that case how can I be of your service Agent Carrasco.” He replied in a mocking tone.
The life of a God, forever bliss, complete happiness: Odysseus slights all of these things in order for him to return to his loving wife and son. The concept of true commitment was a very commendable quality for a Greek hero to possess. With this character trait, Odysseus models the ideal husband, father, and leader. Unfortunately, in today’s society, one rarely encounters such outstanding morality. Being raised in an explicit society, a decrease in certain morals has become fashionable. In particular, the college experience has become accepted as the “wild times” of one’s life. Certain activities ordinarily shunned are now perceived as a learning experience when involving a college student. Drugs and alcohol abuse are commonplace around
