- Rata was a young man who lived on a small island in The Pacific Ocean. The island was always being hit by storms and tornadoes that were destroying the village, so Rata decided to help his people.
- AHHHH TORNADO
- I could build a waka
- Rata thought long and hard about how he could fix the problem, and his mind was set on building a waka to take his people to a new island.
- Rata walked through the wood for days carrying his giant toki [axe] trying to find the perfect tree for the waka.
- After a week of searching he finally found the perfect tree, a great big totara tree with a straight and long trunk.
- As fast as he could he chopped the totara tree down. However, in his rush he forgot the rule of the forest. Always say a karaki if you chop a tree.
- Rata was tired after the hard work so he decided to go and rest then come back to start carving the tree in the morning
