I traveling with a group of salt traders. Man the salt these people here trade are really smelly and taste, um really salty. Now you might think well It's salt so It's supposed to taste like that. I'm telling you this stuff is like saltier than the three oceans put together. And trust me that does not taste very good.  But It's really smooth and when I say It's smooth, It's smooooooooth.

It look a lot like sand and these guys keep the top of the pile in the crates super flat. It's almost like it's just for show. And only certain people are allowed to get the salt when they're cooking. So I went to check out why they are so stricked about this salt thing. Uh ooh looks like they're smuggling weapons through the city gates.

Now we have a problem and if they get caught I'll get in trouble too!!.  And the guards at the city gates won't even think to search there, so I guess I'll have to steal a guards outfit and um... catch the badish guys. And I'm only saying badish because there are kids with this group. And even if they didn't know they'll still get punished. Even if they're like what maybe only 3-6 , and they wouldn't even stand a chance.  So much for a smooth ride with these guys.

Uh oh looks like the traders have just became traders. You know what the best part of this is? they have weapons and I don't. I mean that's crazy, I always have my sword. Well almost always have it with me. And they've already killed the guards, ransacked some homes, and set my on fire. But luckily I got away and put the fire out just before it reached my flesh.

Just before and I mean right when it burn through  my armor.  Then some crazy suicidal person comes out of an ally way and tries to spear me. I mean who would try that on a guard? anyway I have to stop these people and save the town. Well saving the town is proving to be hard and oh wait a minute Hi yah!!!!, ok now that was a close one. AHH!!! ......  Man these guys must have a secret ingredient for courage because they won't stop attacking me!!. the police here are yearning for victory but aren't really doing anything. The rebels have a miscellaneous of weapons and aren't affraid to use them at all.

I'm traveling with a very peevish caravan that seems to have lost many companions on the road.They're  animal traders and they've got a lot of herders with very sharp goads. As the sun loomed over the horizon our caravan was on the move again and would only stop to feed the animals once every two or three hours. The camels can move for a long time before they need water but only so far before they need food. Our caravan traveled back with a brood of animals but the all of a sudden a sand storm struck from the south. You know what the best part is, we got caught right in the middle of the whole thing.

I could hardly breath and it was amazing how the Arabians could set up some small tents for us to sleep in. When I finally got in a tent my eyes were full of sand and every time I tried to close them it felt like glass was being shoved into my  eyes. I fell asleep  and when I awoke I found myself staring at an upright lizard, then I realized I was still hallucinating. I went outside to see if the storm was over yet because my ears were still full of sand.

That was a mistake I will never forget because when I opened the tent flaps about 20 pounds of sand fell on me and of course I got knock out. I was surprised I didn't break my neck but I'm thankful I didn't because whatever's coming up next these people are going  to need my help. Whew I finally got most of the sand out of my ears and the storm's so loud sometime I wish I'd left the sand in my ears. Well now that I'm all better I have to help keep the herd from wandering off somewhere.

The wind outside is horrible and I wonder how those tents can stay up in this weather. They could be torn up from the sand or at least blown away from the wind. Earthier way I don't think any of us can out live this storm if we don't have these tents up. Or if any of us will make it out alive through this storm. At least I got some goggles to protect my eyes when I went out for watch duty but the scarf covering my face doesn't help very much and usually gets in my way.

Well the storm FINALLY!!! cleared up and the sun was as bright as ever, especially since we were trapped in that horrible storm. My eyes stung like someone was sticking needles into my eyes as they were adjusting to the brightness. We made it back to the village with only a few casualties and lost about 3-6  animals. The village had a great feast and as the moon loomed over the mountains I was able to sneak away without anyone noticing.

Well after a long days walk I'm tired and hungry so I camped outside a near by farm. The farmer was really nice and invited me to stay at his place until I could find my own. But I do have to work for my stay and I'm perfectly fine with that because I'm used to doing work. Especially farm work because I used to own a farm in ancient Greece.The farmers name is Alex and his sons are in the military and his wife is sort of sick. So he cooks and cleans the house while I do all the harder heavy duty stuff.

Like working the fields or washing the horses and other things like that. But sometimes I do both jobs when he needs to go out and buy some medicine for his wife. His sons are coming home for a week because they fought the best out of the other soldiers. Well here we go again with the fighting, the sons have challenged my to fight them both. How could I refuse, and so we started to battle each other for a while then I got tired and beat both of them.

When I beat them I was wondering how these people beat the Greeks because the fight was too easy. Anyways when Alex's sons left it was back to the same routine, then the following week I found work in town and will eventually move out and start my own farm. The kind people wanted me to get married but I told them I already had a wife. Speaking of my wife I think it's time to go get so she can help with some of the chores.  And when winter comes I need someone to help keep the fire going when I'm out chopping wood.

I also need someone to look after the house when I go to town to my job. I have an indignant boss who have a hazardous dog and a homicide wife. Pretty scary for me and that's saying something because I don't get scared to easily. It's unbelievable I can make it in and out of that place unscathed every time I go to work. My wife says It's to dangerous to go to work but I said the boss is poised to get all the workers he has to work. I mean we only get like what, one day of every other week. Then there's always the fact that if we're not  there on a day that we were supposed to, we will get fired.

        I have joined in a war again and have allied with Joan of arc but our side is still sort on men. Luckily I have invented the steal crossbow which is more powerful and accurate than the enemies wood crossbows. But my new crossbow is a two man operated weapon so it will probably take longer to reload and that's why it takes longer. I fought and caught an enemy commander which sent the enemy king indignantly crazy because he NOW knows we have a better army.

       I have just been promoted to captain and control an OK portion of the army. Which sould be good but I get called into battle more often and I can't object the promotion because then the people will think I'm a spy or trader. So I find myself in combat more than at home and my wife gets really mad if I come home all bloody. But I complain that it's not my blood which is no good because she'll have me take a cold bath outside anyways. Today Joan of arc was almost captured but I shot one guy in the neck, the arrow passed through ricocheted of another guys skull and hit the guy about to slice joans' head off.

      So not a bad day at work but at home I'm busted for forgetting to wash before coming inside the house. I hate it when I get yelled at by my wife, IT'S SO ANNOYING!!!. If only the place had showers and hot water you don't have to wait ten minutes to finish heating up. We were ambushed the next day and out numbered but my men fought hard, faster and even wilder then the bandits attacking. A few of my men were hit with the plague. I only survived because I happened to shoot the rats outside my tent before they could get within ten feet from it.

    I couldn't fight with back stabber any more in the war because they said it was too short for fighting but only for home defence. So that was the downer of the day for me but my wife had a great time shopping at the local town market place. Today I was shot in the leg and got in trouble by my wife, CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS WOMAN. Because I thought she was supposed to support me and help if I um ever get SHOT like today.Anyways I got better in a few days but in those few days we lost a lot of ground.

   It was customary for me to execute my wife for that but she is my wife so didn't and I wouldn't in the first place. I was at a disadvantage because of my leg and could only command at a distance which I felt gave my soldiers a disadvantage because I'm not out there fighting with them. After the next two weeks I was able to fight again but against an army that out numbered mine by a lot. Although I escaped unscathed I lost hundreds of men. So after that day we were sent into battle with only about twenty five man teams for scouting because our men in one big group makes too much noise.

  I encountered a large group of enemy Calvary but couldn't engage them because of that five man team thing. Then another one of our teams showed up But it was still a hazard to engage the enemy so we hit and ran.The next morning I found myself in court for pulling a hit and run tactic that sent the enemy hurling back to their base camp. My soldiers defended me and in the end I was claimed Innocent and began fighting once more. Joan of arc was being captured again so charged through a ten man blockade and copped off the head of the man capturing Joan.

Robber a good guy

Robber was a bank robber who lived anywhere he wanted  and took/ bought anything he wanted. He worked at almost every bank in the world. How ? because he has the ability to time travel and appear anywhere he wants. But he’s got a wife so technically  he can’t go anywhere he wants.So this essay is about how Robber changed as a person. Robber had the chance to become a famous runner , climber, stealth artist, and skilled bow man , swords man , and hunter. But he gave all that up and used those skills to rob banks. Not just any banks, the very  banks he worked in.
How Robber changed? well it all started on October 6 2011 when he was coming home from work. Or from robbing at work. So he was walking home when he heard the police sirens  and started to run. He didn’t know how they found him or if they were looking for him. All he knew was he wasn’t going to stick around to ask, that’s when the police cars blew up. Yes they just blew up out of nowhere and saved his life. This weird pattern had continued for the next five weeks, So he stopped robbing and held his job at the same banks for a couple of weeks. During those weeks there had been countless robbings, and when he started again cars stated to blow up again.Of course He disrupted the other people around this particular city.   
Why Robber changed? Simply because he had had enough of this crazy blow up cars thing. He wanted to rob but not kill anyone and this was killing/injuring too many people for him. His wife was never really happy about him getting chased by the police, much more have them blow up so close to him. Also because he wanted to just spend time with his wife that doesn't include running away from terror or police or avalanches. So as you can see he has his hands tied up with the law, his wife and exploding cars/ vehicles.  
Although it was hard to spend time with his wife, work without robbing, and stay out of trouble with the law. Robber still managed for about 3 weeks and then almost went crazy about money, but luckily his wife saved him before he could steal all the money. The cops came over to question him for his suspicious  behavior. And because they caught him moving too close to the main vault just to be checking.  He spent nine hours in a police station and of course lied the whole time even with a lie detector. Those things don’t work on him of course because he’s just got that ability.
Who Robber is now? Robber is a bank manager who spends much of his time with his beautiful wife. But he sometimes  he would rob other banks just so more people would transfer to his bank. However, he only uses a third of what he steals and gives the rest to Charity  Or help make homes for the homeless. Robber is still adventurist but doesn’t get into so much trouble any more. So this is how Robber changed from the time traving thief and became a good person . So over all robber has changed to a nice guy who doesn’t steal unless he needs to. And is a lot wiser with his time,money,background and his wife.

m16 good bye

          I am now going on a vacation but not one that includes action or sneaking around. Well I'm going to Hawaii and going to fish the whole time I'm there, well maybe traveling back in time to ancient Hawaii. Now I have to pack for the trip and that's going to take quite some time. I will have to say good bye to all my friends, even Chuck and Seth. Now you might want to know why I say Chuck, that's because he is kind of a bogus type of person and he tackled me once when he caught me at this one bank. I can already smell the salty sea water even though I'm at least 100 miles away from the ocean. I can already imagine the tasty sea food and feel the cold refreshing juice of the coconuts. Now I have just landed and can hear the amazing waters of Hawaii gently hitting the rocky cliffs of the beach.

        I can see the awesome beaches and the really tall coconut trees, the coconut trees are the most amazing and they even have a spider named after it. Now Seth, you could tell easily because he likes to eat humans and sometimes gets on my nerves. Like the one time I almost sliced his head of but remembered he was a friend. He was also the only one who would help me fight the Persian's at the time. As much as I want to leave I still want to stay and help out the timetravelersinc, travel around the world, travel back in time, and get away from home. Hawaii seems fun but not as fun as traveling with Seth and Chuck or just relax.

         I am now learning Buddhism and going to learn all this from a guy named Aafreen,he has also encouraged me to help teach the guards my awesome fighting skills to help defend the city. Well I said my skills are not to be shared with anybody so no. the guards are already doing good at defending the city from those invaders.The mighty hero has to save the day again,I guess so.

         Oh no, not again and I thought my adventuring days are over. Now I am back in action fighting for for an almost defenseless city,wow! look at the numbers of the enemy men. If we are going to win we need sword backstabber and my shield so now we need to find my gear in that hotel. Now the hotel has been tacken hostage and I have to use a new type of sword. Well right now the situation has just changed and I find out my wife is the leader of this invasion,now I have to take her hostage with my awesome kidnapping skills.

     I made it out of the Hindu Kush  mountains and now I have found my way into a village and there they were giving out free rice . Then I found a nice home to stay in for a while and a good shop to shop at. Now the shop keeper is a nice young woman and she probable has the fairest price for the groceries she sells.I also found a nice pond to go fishing if I ever get board. I now have a pretty nice neighborhood and my wife has agreed to stay for a couple of weeks, or just until things start to get a little bad.


 Well you know how I said when things get bad, they did. The village has just found out that the free rice was poisoned and now no one was aloud to enter or leave the village. Now my wife is going mad because of this and I cant even get a decent meal around here. There goes a nice good vacation from action and now it's back to fighting wars,battles, or even things that you don't even now. I hate it when things go wrong and I intend to find out who or what ruined my time of peace. Now even with  the food gone we don't water because the villagers are too afraid it might be poisoned or something.  I guess that's how it runs around here, see you next time.

              Well here I am lost in India and freezing, although I have meet up with Chuck here I am still very cold. I am sure chuck is too, even through he's wearing  like four layers. Oh well, We still need to find a way of the Hindu Kush Mountains and back to a small village my wife is staying in. Oh! I almost  forgot, I just saved by packing food that doesn't make you sick after you eat it. I also found Chuck a nice wife, well enough of this I got to get back to finding a way of this mountain. Guess what? I saved Chuck once and now I have to save him twice. He was laying five feet from the Indus river and then I threw him into the shallow part of the river.


Then chuck almost died of hypothermia and as for me well lets just say I used Chuck as a human shield against the snow from the avalanche. Now we need to find a better way of because this way is covered in like 50 feet of snow. I sure hope we make it of this place alive, or else my wife will kill me in the after life. Or just throw my dead body in a pit of lava. Now I have just found out another pathway of and Chuck has finally woke up. He sleeps like a baby and almost slid half way down the mountain, if I hadn't had been looking for something I dropped down where he was sliding of the mountain. If I weren't he would be a goner and I would have to carry his dead body all the way down the mountain. Well not all the way, and I mean just throw him half way down then walk down to where he is and do the same thing.

I was just at the circus Maximus and I had to fight against at least 12 gladiators and four lions. So all together I fought about 14 things and survived, but I did have a little help from my old friend Chuck. We both ended up in the arena and both fought. Well I fought 6 of those gladiators and 2 lions. Chuck fought the other end and we just hurt the competitors not kill them.

But we had to kill the lions in order to save our selves and Chuck accidentally cut of a lions leg so I had to put it out of misery. Plus, Chuck was too scared anyways so he almost got hurt, and he almost hurt me. Luckily I moved just in time and he ended up hurting one of the gladiators. Chuck was finally worn out and hid in a corner and now that he's out of the way, I can finally end this catastrophe. Now that we won the Romans are planning to execute us but we warped out before they could catch us. The Romans were very close to catching us because Chuck was pretty much sleeping, and one lion was still alive so that sort of bought us a little time.

             I have just joined the Plebeians and we have just captured a very rich Roman and are holding him hostage. If the Romans don't hand over our freedom, we will capture and hold more Romans hostage. Today the Romans are going to attack us but we still have a lot of people on our side because not only Plebeians did not have freedom, but there are many slaves in our ranks. We sneaked into the Romans' fort and quietly took out many Romans one by one and then we finally reached the captains tent.

              Then we very carefully bagged him and quietly ran out of the fort victorious. The next day we saw the Romans quickly packing things and leaving. One Roman tried to sneak up on us but he was captured and held hostage too.Then the Romans' finally gave in and was forced to leave their beloved city and  it was all over. Some Romans' tried to rebel against us but were told to leave or be fed to the lions and die a horrible death.

I am going to ancient Greece to give the founder of math the idea of math, then take some of the credit and also introduce him to geometry. Then take most of the credit and get paid for having him present to the counsel and be famous. Now I will introduce him to the universe and after that I will probably lay low and settle on a farm and wait until I hear from the mathematician.


               After I hear from the mathematician I will teach him about the earth and how it is actually round and instead of flat. Next I will teach him the dinosaurs and the cave men and become even more famous, then he will learn about the other countries and their cultures. Now I will tell him about the Romans and how they adapted from the Greeks and why it is called Rome. Then I will go to where Rome is located at and become founder of Rome then let him take over when I leave to travel back in time to the present day. After that my old friend Chuck will probably be chasing me around trying to stop me from robbing banks, but he won't get far.

This is the battle of Marathon and it is one of the famous battles fought by the Greeks, this battle is about the Persians invading Greece. The Persians brought their enormous navy to invade but the Greeks did not worry for they had the mighty Spartans on their side. But the Persians also brought many archers with them,but the Greeks still won a stunning victory.    



                                  This another famous battle fought by Greeks and Persians, but the Greeks had the upper hand because the Persians are invading the Greeks land. The Greeks knew most of the land so they could attack from anywhere, well not anywhere because the Persians had an enormous navy and if the Greeks tried to attack by sea they would probably lose. The Persians out numbered the Greeks but the Greeks won another victory with the help of the mighty Spartans.                





                           This is the battle of Salamis and the Greeks won by ramming into the Persian ships. The Greeks tricked the Persians into a narrow passageway and the Greeks were waiting at the end of this passage. when the Persians were close enough to attack the Greeks rammed into them by surprise, and some of the Greek ships came through the passageway  to cut of the Persians escape.  





                                       This is the battle of Plataea and this battle is when the Greeks trapped most of the Persian army in their own fort. after the were running low on supplies, the Persians tried to scare the Greeks away by attacking. It did not work, the Greeks simply fought them until the Persians had very few men and then the Greeks trapped the Persians in their fort. The Greeks then killed all the Persians in the fort.









                                      I was on one of these ships while I was still looking for some were good to settle, and that is when I was attacked by pirates. I defeated the pirate's captain and the owner gave the ship as a reward because he was actually an under cover soldier looking for this very pirate. After that I was finally able to set sail and continue my search for a good spot for my wife and I to settle down.  







                                     I was trained to use one of these and I have become such a great swordsman I am now a teacher. I named my sword back stabber because I was also trained to be an assassin so I guess you know why I call it back stabber. After the war I was aloud to keep back stabber and lucky I was, because not long after someone attacked me. But he did not stand a chance because my sword was so sharp it cut right through his armor. 








               This was my body armor and it saved my life a couple of times when things went wrong. One time some guy threw a spear at me and would have went right through if my armor was not there. The spear hit me and bounced off the armor and that day I was promoted to general.    


                    










                
I used a spear like this to defeat a famous commander and a lot of Persian soldiers. This spear is also the spear that almost killed my friend Artemis, she was doing her morning shift look out when out of nowhere a spear came flying at her face. Luckily she moved just in time, but she still has a three inch scare on her left arm.

   





                                                                                               My friend had one of these and he was an excellent archer. I was also trained to use one of these but I would rather be in the front fighting. I am a general so I sort of have to be in the front commanding and fighting at the same time.

         



 This is my shield and it saved my life at least a hundred times or more. It also saved my friend's life when some one started shooting arrows at us. Artemis lost her shield so I had to help her because I was the closest.

I am joining the Greek army and that is so awesome.My wife is not to happy with that but I convinced her and today is my first day of training. My teacher is a real spartan and I am officially a spartan today, and I have passed the test. If your wandering what the test was it was beating people up with my super big and heavy shield. The one thing that sucks is I don't go to real combat until next year, but the great thing is I get to catch Persian invaders and torcher them.

Three years later I boarded a Persian boat and burned every one alive. Then I joined forces with chuck Norris again and defeated another Persian ship, but this one had over 200 men on it.Sadly my best friend  died of some sort of swamp flu, and now the Persian army is growing stronger.
