         Long ago, in Greece one morning stormy waves crashed near a lovely castle were sleeping lay king Menelaus and his beautiful wife Helen who had been given to him by the goddess Aphrodite she was the fairest and most beautiful women in all Greece with her shimmering blond hair and petrifying blue eyes. The king carefully took care of his charmingly cheerful wife. On the other side of the river lived the prince of troy who was quite lazy and didn’t think things through.

         That same morning the king woke up to an unpleasant surprise his wife had vanished. Suddenly it struck him, the prince of troy had done this. Because of this he Instantly sent a decry to gather all the soldiers to fight against troy. But as soon as they arrived the army faced a problem, the city gates. The Greeks fought for ten years but did not succeed.

         Finally, after a decade one soldier had a bright idea. Because of this, everyone started cutting tree’s and nailing them together. By the time they were done they had a majestic horse. The plan was the trojans would think this was a surrender gift while in realty the majority of soldiers were hiding in the belly of the horse. The rest of the soldiers hid in caves while making it seem as if they had sailed away. They waited in suspense till the curious trojans would let the horse into the walls. That night after the trojans had partied long over what they thought was there victory the sneaky silent soldiers crept out of the massive horse and retrieved Helen. After wards they burned the city. A simple idea won a battle.
