STRONGER TOGETHER: THE POWER
6 A
FROM ME TO WE: HOW COMPASSION
CAN CHANGE THE WORLD
Eshaan sat alone on the school bench; his shoulders
hunched like a wilted flower. His lunchbox lay beside
him, untouched—just like yesterday. The world
around him buzzed with laughter, a whirlwind of
voices and movement, yet he remained still, a ghost
in a place that no longer seemed to see him. Once,
he had been part of the noise, the chatter, the inside
jokes. But slowly, conversations happened around
him, not with him. One day, he simply stopped trying.
And the world, as if in agreement, stopped noticing.
But Nyara noticed. From across the courtyard, she
had watched his presence dim like a candle flickering
in the wind. Today, she refused to let that happen.
Without hesitation, she plopped onto the bench
beside him. “Hey, I swear today's math homework
was a trap set by an evil genius. Did you crack
question five?” Eshaan hesitated. No one had spoken
to him in weeks. The words felt stiff on his tongue,
but he forced them out. “Yeah,” he murmured. “It was
tough.” Nyara grinned. “Tell me you at least got the
answer, or I'll have to convince the whole class it was
impossible.” A small chuckle escaped Eshaan before
he could stop it.
The next day, Nyara sat beside him again. By the
third day, another classmate joined. Then another.
Soon, Eshaan wasn't just a shadow in the back-
ground—he was laughing, arguing over cricket
scores, helping with homework. It had taken just one
moment of kindness to change everything. Some-
times, the smallest light is enough to pull someone
out of the dark.

OF THE FORTNITE CREW
Beneath the Battle Bus, our story unfolds,
In a world of wonders, where courage takes hold.
Through twisting terrains and skies painted blue,
We learn we're stronger, united as crew.
From Tilted Towers to Lazy Lagoon,
The storm clouds threaten, but we find our tune.
Building, battling, and cranking our way,
In this vivid realm where the bold come to play.
But it's not just the victories, not just the fight,
It's the friends we make on this endless night.
Through squads and duos, our bonds intertwine,
A community forged, like a rare, sacred sign.
We revive when we fall, lend mats when we're low,
A bond built in pixels, yet deeper we grow.
The power of compassion, through victories shared,
Proves in Fortnite, as in life, we're always prepared.
So, let's gather our strength, both on and off-screen,
With empathy guiding where we've never been.
Together in Fortnite, through thick and thin,
The power of compassion ensures we all win.

LE POUVOIR DE LA COMPASSION
La compassion est comme un super pouvoir
qui rend le monde meilleur. C'est quand on se
soucie des autres et qu'on essaie de les aider
quand ils sont tristes ou en difficulté. Même
les petites choses, comme dire quelque chose
de gentil ou aider quelqu'un à porter ses
affaires, peuvent faire une grande différence.
Lorsque nous faisons preuve de compassion,
cela rend les gens heureux et nous fait aussi
nous sentir bien intérieurement. C'est comme
répandre le soleil partout où l'on va, et cela
aide tout le monde à se sentir plus connecté
et aimé. Être gentil est une façon vraiment
géniale de rendre le monde heureux !

POISONOUS PLASTIC
एकता ही श�� आह े
Plastic, plastic everywhere.
एकता �णजे ताकद. �जथे एकता असते, �तथे प्रगती आ�ण शांतता You can find it anywhere.
नांदते. एकत्र रा�ह�ास कोणतीही अडचण सोडवता येते. जर लोक It can be found in the salty ocean,
Causing sea-creatures indigestion.

भांडत रा�हल, तर कमजोरी येते आ�ण समाज पुढ जाऊ शकत नाही.
भारत हा �व�वधतेत एकता असलला दश आह. येथे अनेक भाषा, Plastic, the cruel chemical,
े

धम आ�ण सं�ती असूनही लोक प्रेमाने एकत्र राहतात. शाळत, Sends animals to the medical.

They think it looks delicious,

कटबात आ�ण समाजातही एकता मह�ाची असते. मदतीची भावना But it is hazardous.

असेल तर लोक एकत्र येतात आ�ण मोठमो�ा अडचणी सोडवू To us, plastic pleases,
शकतात. �ातं�संग्रामात भारतीयांनी एकतेने �ब्र�टशां�वरु� But to Mother Nature, it displeases.
लढा �दला आ�ण �वजय �मळवला. जर एकता नसेल, तर संकट े We think burning it is the solution,
But it causes air pollution.
वाढतात आ�ण लोकांम�े मतभेद होतात. �णूनच, प्र�ेकाने प्रेम, Nature provides us with renewable resources,
�व�ास आ�ण सहकाया ने एकत्र राहावे. यामुळ समाज आ�ण दश But still we believe plastic is our precious source.

दो ी मजबूत होतील. We are unaware of the consequences,
And we need to come to our senses.
