I rode through the deep sea to find a place to live as my previous home was too dangerous to live in. As I was going under the sea, I saw a green beautiful giant island.Next, I jumped off a whale, only to see that my people were already there. They greeted me in the place they called Aotearoa.


My people took me around the place showing me which was my family's pa. There was a fire marea and little huts that the warriors slept in. I went to my whale and I saw a couple of people looking out to the ocean. My whale came up saying, 

‘Hello’ as he was excited to see me.


Next I took my whale out for a ride and the people were amazed that I could ride a whale and congratulated me when I got back onto the shore. People came up to me cheering and these two men asked if they could have a ride. I quickly said  no as I overheard that they wanted to eat a whale and one of the men said, ‘Let's eat the whale that I was riding. I walked off worrying about my whale.I told my whale to go as far away as he could.  


As I go to sleep I worry about how my whale is going but I knew I was going to my whale again. It was 2am in the morning i ran to the sea and called my whale to come and get me so i can take the whale for a ride, `
