In 900 BCE, it was a bright and early morning at the chocolate factory when Arjuna was rudely awakened by an Oompa-Loompa. The Oompa-Loompas of the chocolate factory were responsible for giving Arjuna updates on the factory. The Oompa-Loompas are the caretakers of the chocolate factory.
"Arjuna, wake up! We think someone is trying to sabotage the chocolate factory. The enemy dumped gasoline in the the chocolate pumps! Come and look!" said the Oompa-Loompa.
Arjuna quickly got out of the bed! Then, he and the Oompa-Loompa slid down the chocolate slide to the chocolate laboratory. There he saw chocolate spilled all over the chocolate laboratory and the smell of gasoline was terribly strong! Arjuna yelled, "Who would do such a cruel thing? I am in no condition to fight. I am still recovering from the battle with Bhagadatta but I must do something!"
At this moment, every Oompa-Loompa realized they had to prepare for battle. They began to look around for any clues to who may have sabotaged the chocolate laboratory. About five minutes went by when Krishna and Shalya yelled, "Hey! We found a clue! Here is a boot print in the middle of the spilled chocolate. The boot prints lead to the back door! Come and look!" Krishna and Shalya are Arjuna's right-hand battle buddies. They treated the chocolate factory as if it was their own.
Arjuna ran out the back door to find the enemy. Krishna, Shalya and the Oompa-Loompas were not far behind! He followed the boot prints and ran into Karna and his army on the other side of the chocolate trees. Karna and his army were one of Arjuna's competitors in the chocolate business. Arjuna said, "Why did you come and sabotage my chocolate laboratory? Are you crazy? You could have killed millions by poisoning them with gasoline in my chocolate!"
Karna replied, " You have taken all of my customers from my chocolate company! I have gone out of business and for that you have to pay! Your chocolate factory must be destroyed and you must die! I will not stop until I have victory. We have traveled from the Village of Norman to the Village of Stillwater for revenge!"
Arjuna began to shoot his arrows and the arrows fell on Karna like summer rain. Karna's arrows were like stinging snakes. Stinging and biting at the skin of Arjuna.
It began to pour down raining and Arjuna's army began to sink in the mud and could hardly move. Arjuna yelled, "Karna, it is not fair to fight us when we are at a disadvantage. We are sinking in mud! Please, stop shooting at me and my army."
Despite Arjuna's cry, Karna constantly showered arrows upon Arjuna and his army without hesitation.
Karna then began to sink faster than Arjuna's army! The Oompa-Loompas on the top of the chocolate factory fired down upon Karna!
Karna cried, " Wait, Arjuna! Tell them to hold their fire! We are at a disadvantage!"
Arjuna replied, "This is true! However, you did not take us into consideration when we were at a disadvantage. I will not tell them to stop! Oompa-Loompas! Fire your bows down onto Karna and his army!"
The Oompa-Loompas continued to shoot their fire until their arms were numb. While sinking Arjuna grabbed his last arrow and shot it at Karna. Karna's head was immediately struck off and the Oompa-Loompas threw a rope off the top of the chocolate factory and saved Arjuna!

Authors Note:
While reading the battle between Arjuna and Karna, I could picture the arrows flying back and forth between each other. This was a really big and important battle. The rain caused the ground to become muddy and both armies began to sink. Karna was very determined to fight and kill Arjuna because he did not even hesitate to stop shooting his arrows when Arjuna cried aloud.I kept most of the plot the same. However, I did throw in a twist by making both Shalya and Krishna, Arjunas charioteer. I did this because I really enjoyed Arjuna's character so I wanted everyone to be on his side. In the original story Shalya was actually Karna's charioteer. I planned to rewrite this story by amping up this battle scene! However, I wanted to keep it within the chocolate factory theme. I want to paint this picture of Arjuna and Karna running into each other with their arrows flying at each other. Arjuna said, " Pause, O Karna. According to the rules of battle, thou canst not attach a disabled foeman." I wanted to create that moment again in my story but by using a different saying.
This is a very intense and bloody battle, so when I recreated this story I want the same kind of intensity in the story. Karna and Arjuna have very powerful roles in this story. So, I wanted to keep their names the same to uphold that powerful meaning along with the scenery of the battle. Hopefully, the parallels that I used to this story and the original one is clear. If not, I am open to rewriting some of the parts.
