Disclaimer: I really don't own anything besides this plot.

Early in the morning, when he got up, he clutched me tightly like his prized possession.

"Helen, you are a beautiful woman through and through, you know?" He then gave me a trademark smirk. I felt like killing him at that moment, but forced a smile. Then I suddenly remembered.

"Menelaus dear, who is Achilles?" He frowned.

"How did you know of him?" I winced.

"A guard was talking to another about him."

"Oh. Achilles? A warrior in my brother's court. Doesn't have a master though. Fights for no one but himself."

A man who fights for no king? What an interesting character. I soon got out of bed, for I insisted that Menelaus had to go for his kingly duties. I then scrubbed myself well before heading to my chamber to compose a letter to Clytemnestra. I wrote an explained my entire plot to her. I also asked if she knew who Achilles was. I sealed the letter and now had to deliver it. If I used the usual delivery service, my letter might get sidetracked. I pondered a while then an idea struck me.

Looking out of the window, I called, " Hermes, fleet-footed god, please come to my aid!" a man appeared suddenly.

"Hello. Since this is Sparta and you are so fair a face, I believe you must be Helen." I bowed.

"You need help?"

"Yes, Hermes. I hope you can help. I need to deliver a very important letter to my sister, Clytemnestra. But I dare not trust the usual delivery service and I hope you can help me deliver it."

"Well. A god like me really doesn't have to your bidding, but, if Zeus found out..." I smiled and handed him the letter.

"I have another request. Could you bring her reply back for me?" He nodded and took the letter from my hands. In an instant, he disappeared. I sat on my bed and plotted some more. My plan for now was to get support from Clytemnestra and get her to bring Agamemnon and possibly Achilles to Sparta. Not long later, Hermes appeared.

"Here's your reply. Call again if you need anymore help." I suddenly felt grateful to all these Gods and Goddesses. I then tore open the envelope.
