The Sons of Ma'afu

Once there lived a chief named Ma’afu who had two naughty sons their names are Ma’afutoka and Ma’afulele. They always get in trouble. They would practice throwing their spears but never be careful where they throw them, once a spear ended up  in a man’s leg and 

from now on he could never walk properly.

The villagers had enough so they sent them away to Atavahea to get water the chief didn’t want to send them away because he knew there was a scary and big duck there  but a good leader listens to his people, so the brothers got their coconut shells  and they went to Atavahea to get water. The boys started getting water when the big scary duck appeared, the two boys fought with all their might and they won, they gathered their water and travelled back to the village with the duck.

 The villagers were still unhappy so they sent them to Muihatafa to get water but from the bottom of the sea, the chief looked at the two boys, he knew that there was a triggerfish and the boys wouldn’t stand it and saw that they were not even sorry so he agreed, Ma’afutoka and Ma’afulele got their coconut shells and travelled to Muihatafa. Once they got there they dived into the ocean and the triggerfish came swimming towards the boys, the boys fought with all their might and when they thought that they were going to drown one of them punched the fish through the gills and it stopped moving, since the fish stopped moving they both got water and headed back to the village.

 The village was still unhappy so they wanted to send them away. Ma’afu the chief  wanted to change their minds but the people have spoken so the sons went to live in the sky so they can always look down and see their village. 

The End
