Maui and the sun

Māui and the sun
It was a dark night Māui and his brothers couldn’t eat their food and Māui got mad because there was no light. Māui said he goes far too fast, Māui called his brothers and they came out of the darkness .Māui said to his brothers we’re going to catch that sun. His brothers laughed .”How are we going to do that?” they said. We’re going to make flax ropes and once the ropes were finished the brothers hid behind some large rocks. Māui said when I say go, jump out from behind the rocks and grab the sun with the ropes. One...two...three go all four brothers. They jumped out and grabbed the sun and he said “stop stop what are you doing?” You're going to kill me”  the sun moaned. “Let him go”  the brothers yelled “let  him go”. The sun went slowly across the sky and Māui and his brothers could eat their food and hunt so they lived happily ever after.
