Chapter 3 "It can't be"
Briseis was now at her cousin's chamber crying waiting for Hector. Her first instinct was to go to her brother Aurelius, but when Paris was concerned, she knew Hector was the best choice. When Paris let her escape the temple, she knew that there was a little chance Paris could survive this...alive. So she prayed to Apollo that her young prince cousin was alive and well. Another thing that she prayed for was that she could survive Hector's wrath when he found out about Paris. She heard the door opens and found herself hugged by Hector. While hugging him she started to sob saying sorry many times.
"Hush now Briseis" Hector soothed. He led her to the bed and together they sat down. Briseis started telling Hector about what happened to Paris, "...He led me to the secret passage he said that... that I should warn you... I said I will not leave without him but he refused saying he has to fight" she said as she cries again and hugs Hector and said "but before I left I saw him on the floor unconscious...oh, Hector, I'm so sorry."
"What are you thinking?" Hector asked.
"That he might not survive Hector I'm sorry but, that maybe Paris is dead." Briseis sobbed against Hector's chest. Hector tried to calm not only Briseis but himself also so he took deep breath and, "Cousin, I think you should retire now, I'll have to do something"
Briseis only nodded and kissed Hector's cheek before she left, "Paris, knows what he's doing, but risking his life is unbearable." Hector didn't move he just sat at his bed so many thoughts running into his mind. Once Briseis was gone he screamed in anger.

"Hector, calm down" the king said while watching his son scream at the advisers and trashing things he could find. Hector stopped and glare at his father "How can I calm down when I know my brother is in there at the hands of our enemy", his hands were shaking in anger and tears were now starting to fall "... to think I didn't know if he's still alive or what" he said, half-shouting at the king.
Seeing that his son is about to break he dismisses all his advisers and servants leaving them alone. King Priam walks to his son and pats his son's shoulder. "I know how you love your brother, but you have to concentrate on your duty."
Hector only bows his head tears are now falling from his brown eyes, "I know, it's just that I can't help to think that for the first time I failed him... I failed in protecting him."
The king only embraces his heir to the throne. Not only Hector is affected, the king too. But seeing Hector, the fearless Prince of Troy, crumple like that, the king must be brave and keep his emotion in control because if he starts to breakdown, there will be no hope that will flicker in their eyes. He needed to be brave not only for his sons but for the people of Troy. He loves his sons more than he loves himself and seeing them in sorrow will kill every bit of him until nothing is left.
"We will find a way, Hector" the king said.
"I just wish he was here, making trouble with the advisers and I would scold him, telling him to go to his chambers immediately," Hector said as he remembered his time with Paris, "but instead of going to his chambers, he will go to my son and play with him."
"Just be strong, Hector my son, just be strong," King Priam said.

Achilles was watching Agamemnon as the king received gifts from the other kings. Odysseus of Ithaca was now beside him and they watched together.
"Don't mind the politics, my friend, they will just bore you" His friend said with a smile. He just smiled back. When Agamemnon knew his presence, he suddenly dismissed all his servants and kings.
"So, you had a fine victory there, Achilles" the king said. When Achilles refused to speak he continued, "So, what gift will you offer to your king?"
"I have no king. If you want gifts, then take all the gold you want, take it."Achilles said coldly. The king only snorted then smiled "Very well. I shall now take your gift." Achilles looked at the king, confused. That made the king's grin wider. The king signaled for his guard to bring forth his so-called gift. The guards entered with a man struggling from their grip. They stopped in front of the king and Achilles. Then, Achilles spoke up, "If you value your lives, gentlemen, release him"
There, in front of him, at the mercy of the guards, was Alexandros, who looked at him with an expression of fear and hatred. Seeing that the guards did not release Alexandros, he drew his sword, ready to attack, but he stopped when he heard Alexandros' voice.
" STOP!!" Alexandros pleaded, "I saw so many people die today and I don't want to watch any more people die because of me," Alexandros said, "let them do what they want from me"
Agamemnon suddenly laughed when he saw Achilles lower his sword. "Ha, the mighty valiant Achilles was tamed by a pretty Trojan boy" he said as he touched the cheek of Alexandros. Alexandros only flinched away. Achilles gritted his teeth in anger, "Very well, you have made a choice, king, I shall go now." But before he went, he looked at Alexandros, eyes expressing something that neither he nor Alexandros could explain.
Alexandros only looked at Achilles then bowed his head. Shooting a last angry glare at the prideful Agamemnon, Achilles left the tent and went back to his own. Alexandros was not Agamemnon's, Achilles had not given the young Trojan boy to him at all. Agamemnon had stolen Alexandros from him. Alexandros was...Alexandros was his. And he would take back what was his.
