Week 9 Story Telling: The Story of the Universe

There were three brothers: Earth, Sun and Moon. They are the three sons of the Star. They all lived in the kingdom of Universe. The Sun is the elder and the Moon is the youngest. The Moon and the Earth respected and loved their elder brother Sun. The Earth and the Moon would give their life away just to save their brother Sun.

The Earth always watched over the Sun and revolved around him. The Earth would not let Sun any harm and destroy anyone who thought harm to the Sun.

The Moon did the same for their elder brother Sun and in addition watched over the Earth and revolved around him. The Moon would not let any harm towards the Earth and the Sun.

The Sun being the elder of them all, always was a reason for the two brothers to shine. The Sun helped the Earth to thrive and the Moon to shine bright like he ever did.

Regardless of what the Sun did to the younger brothers, the protection they provided to their elder brother Sun was purely because of their love.

One fine day in the kingdom of Universe, Black Hole was spotted. Black Hole wanted to fight with the Sun and take over the kingdom of the Universe. The whole Kingdom of Universe shook seeing the Black Hole.

The three brothers prepared for the fight. The moon went for the fight. The moon and the Black Hole fought for 20 years. The moon was not able to defeat the Black Hole. The fight stopped when the Black Hole punched the Moon and gave him a black scar.

The Sun got mad, heated up and was ready to end the Black Hole. The Earth would not let his brother Sun fight. The Earth insisted on going for a fight. The Earth fought with the Black Hole for 40 years and could not defeat him. The Black Hole almost ended the life of Earth but the Sun came to the rescue. The Earth came rushing towards the Black hole and dragged him far away from his brother Earth. The Sun threw flames at the Black Hole and chased him all the way out of the kingdom of the Universe. The Black Hole ran for his life and escaped the Universe. It took the Sun 10 years to defeat the Black Hole.

After the defeat of the Black Hole, the news spread all over the kingdom of the Universe, the kingdom of Galaxy and all over the entire Space. All of the asteroids, who once were defeated by the Black Hole and held captive heard about it and they came to the kingdom of Universe just to bow to the Sun and make him their king.

Author’s note:

In the book The Great War by Annie Besant, it tells us how the Pandava brothers work together for their elder brother, Yudhishthira. They grew stronger each day and famous with time amongst the people. It is fascinating to me to read about the Pandava brothers working selflessly for each other and mainly Yudhishthira. I see so much of respect here and I believe the bond of brotherhood they shared is so strong that it might be hard for us to see it in our daily life. The Pandava brother fought with enemies and anyone who went against Yudhishthira and the Panadava brothers.  The story tells us about Jarasandha who had held captive sixty eight kings in order to make a sacrifice. Then the Pandava brother enters the kingdom of Jarasandha and defeats him to make Yudhishthira their king and a lord paramount.

This week I retold the story about the bond of brotherhood Pandava brothers shared. My story has three brother and they love each other dearly. This is a bed time story with a lesson about selfless love and respect.

  1. HI Shristi,

    This is a new take on the Pandava brothers than I have not read previously. In most of the stories I have read they seem to all work together but it is Yudhishthira that continues to put them in bad situations. I like how you depicted the brothers in planet forms rather than the usual human form. I also enjoyed how you made your story into a bed time story.
