Students at library Soruce

Drona was in the local library tutoring some of his students one afternoon. He was often seen in the library reading and putting on classes. The power of the community was something he greatly believed in. His school, Leaf, was across the street from the library. So after school, he would often walk over to help his students studying. Many of his students had been working on physics homework and a handful were programming. Of those programming, they were working on building sites for their physics projects that they would present at the end of the semester. He was hovering around his students helping with the normal problems. Some of the students wanted to build a responsive site so it would work on mobile. He introduced to a library called Foundation that would help them.
While he was helping the group, he overheard other students not his working on an programming problem. They had ran into a wall and were distraught because this program was important to them and of course due the next day. Each student that spoke seemed to be knowledgeable of recursion but didn't know how to exercise their knowledge. Drona thought to himself this is too typical of other schools. They teach them the material and never help them with execution. He approached this group and introduced himself to the students. They had seen him there before helping other students. They explained that they were having some unexpected results from their code. Drona told them how they could use the recursive concept they had been talking about could help clean up and bring about the desired result. He showed them how it was done and they were amazed.
Then to impress the students, he showed them some fancy css transitions and properties that made their site much more presentable. All of the students wished that they had him as a teacher. They told him that they were two families of brothers. That they would tell their parents of how Drona had helped them with their project. Drona felt that he added value to the library being able to help other students.
As those two groups of brothers headed home, they talked about how wise Drona had been and they wished he was their teacher. During dinner that night, one of the brothers told his father about how they were helped at the library. He went on to explain how he wish he could be their teacher. The father knew right away it was Drona from Leaf as he was known for being a big help in the library. This gave the father the idea that his sons could attend Leaf next year. He told the boys that they would visit leaf next Friday and express their interest in joining the following school year.

Author's Note:
I wanted to retell the first time that Drona met the Kauravas and the Pandavas. They had been playing with a ball that fell down a well. They didn't know how to use archery in this situation to help get the ball out of the well. The eldest brother Yudhisthira had dropped his ring down the well as well. Drona comes along and basically says, "Do you know not how to apply your archery skills here?". The brothers did not know what to do. Drona was able to use archery to get the ball out and then said a mantra to get the ring out. The Kauravas and the Pandavas went home to tell their parents at what had taken place. Bhishma knew right away that it was Drona who had helped them. Later, Drona would become their teacher.
