Mongoe Monologue
“BOOM!”, “STOP!”, “HSSSS!” I went outside to see what that noise was.I saw a mongoose and a snake on the couch fighting and screaming! “Sighs.....another day as a therapist.” I tried to remind myself again why I chose this job. I noticed my other patients are getting ready to go. “Goodbye Keevan and Beterli see you next week!” I said. “Thank you again Dr. Hareman!” said Beterli and Keevan. Now I need to hurry and get ready for the next patient.” I said. A few minutes later the snake and mongoose came in. They looked like they can't go anywhere without fighting and screaming. They are lucky there are actually therapist’s in the big bungalow in Segowlee cantonment during the 21st century. About five minutes later they actually stopped a little, …show more content…
Then the snake interrupted and said “ You don't need to know his name.” I asked why and she said “ Because he won't be here after I kill him.” The mongoose tried to strike at the snake because she said that. As fast as thunder I quickly stopped the mongoose from getting into a fight by putting a stone collar around his neck. The snake started to laugh. “Hahahaha!” Then I said he’s not the only one who’s going to be teached a lesson. The snake got frightened and said “No!” louder than a little kid seeing a sharp needle for the first time. The snake tried to escape, but I caught her and put the collar around her neck as fast as I can. She hissed and said “So much for trying.” “Now where were we?” I asked. No one answered so then I didn’t want a second to be wasted so I just continued from where we were. “Now what was your name again?” I asked as politely as I could, while the inside of me felt like their was a beast that just wanted to break free and smash everything in sight. The patient answered “My name is Rikki-Tikki-Tavi.” Then I asked the snake what her name …show more content…
“Now that that's out of the way let's talk about the problem that you two are having.” I said. Right after I said that it, everything sounded like world war III is happening and people are screaming. “STOP!” I screamed from the top of my lungs. “Let’s let Nagaina go first since obviously she is a girl.” Nagaina told me everything like how they were first here and then the british family came and how her and Nag, her husband wanted to take their garden back. Next it was Rikki-Tikki’s turn. A few minutes later he finished talking about how Nagiana made a plan to kill the british family. In the end I told them to talk it out. When they started boy I knew that was mistake since they can't even talk mature. Then I thought of a perfect idea for Nagaina and Rikki-Tikki. I told them why don't they make a comfortable home for just Nagaina somewhere in the garden. That way she can let her babies hatch there with no one to disturb them. Nagaina agreed with excitement, but it seemed as though Rikki-Tikki didn’t. He said he could not agree to that. “What if Nagaina decides to kill others even after we give her a home.” He

    If you recall in paragraph 25 killing a snake is a grown mongoose's business. This is his first step to growing up. Also if his mother fed him on snake, he would have natural eaten it. Now, since he had other snakes to fight, he didn't eat the snake. This shows how he has grown up. In paragraph 56 and 57, he is trying figure out when he should kill Nag. Paragraph 57 says, "'Now, if I kill him here, Nagaina will know; and if I fight him on the open floor, the odds are in his favor. What am I to do?' said Rikki-tikki-tavi." When Rikki-tikki attacked Karait he just attacked he didn't think about anything. That time he put himself at a bigger risk. This time he actually spent time to think. He considered his options and his surroundings. This shows that he has grown a little more. In paragraph 61 he kills Nag. In paragraph 104 he kills Nagaina. Paragraph 104 says, "...Rikki-tikki, covered with the dirt, dragged himself out of the hole leg by leg, licking his whiskers." He had just gone the rat-hole with his teeth in Nagaina. When he came back up, the garden found out that he killed Nagaina. When it says that he licking his whiskers, I can infer that he might have eaten…

    Rattler Diction

    • 604 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The speaker’s choice of respectful diction toward the snake portrayed the rattlesnake to being a fair opponent. The snake was “capable of long range attack and armed with powerful fangs” yet it did not move in response to the speaker until he had initiated an “unprovoked attack” on the snake. The speaker describes the snake to have power and the ability to attack with a likely chance of accuracy – this indicated that the rattler was not helpless but in fact the complete opposite because it could have easily attacked first. The natural recoil the snake had in response to the speaker’s first attack shows that the snake had not expected combat because the rattler had done nothing to “provoke” him, showing the powerful snake had not initiated the first hit but must defend itself for its own life. When the speaker had brought out his weapon, the snake had “shot” into the bushes and “shook and shook his fair but furious signal”. The snake’s hiding from the man usually shows cowardice, but describing the snake to have “shot” into hiding illustrates its speed – as if the snake were like a bullet. His hiding in the bushes was not an intention of cowardice but was later shown in the sentence almost as if a desperate call for peace when the snake repeatedly “shook and shook” his “fair but furious” rattler. Repeating the word “shook” puts an emphasis to indicate its desperation while the rattler was calling for a “fair” warning with its rattler, but once…

    The setting has a peaceful and calm effect on the reader. The event takes place in the desert after sunset; the writer describes the setting in a way where if you were in the desert on a cool evening you wouldn’t think that you would come upon any danger or threat to your life. The writer writes, “Light was thinning; the scrub’s dry savory odors were sweet on the cooler air. In this, the first pleasant moment for a walk after long blazing hours, I thought I was the only thing abroad.” The writer used a series of selection of detail and language to create an atmosphere that at first showed that the man was alone and relaxed until he came upon the snake.…
