WAR

"Ah, look what we have here, a very beautiful worshiper of the son god Apollo. "The man said lustily and flirting with her but she just ignored it. "What's wrong lady? Scared? "The man asks again, his hands traveling around Briseis' lower back, She quickly clouts his left audacity angrily. Her furiousness angered the man and made him slap her twice back but Briseis' wasn't scared so she spit on the man.

"Why you little slut! "the man said angrily, He took his blade but someone grabbed his hand then said. "STOP! We can give her to Achilles. "The man said then the man who wants to kill Briseis smiles evilly. "That's a good Idea, after he's done playing with her maybe he will give her to us. "The man said laughing.

AFTERTHEWAR

Achilles was about to enter his tent when Eudorus approached him.

"Milord, I have something to show you. "He said politely as he opens the door blinds. Achilles saw a girl tied up like a prisoner on the floor of his tent. He quickly looked at Eudorus then the man spoke. "He might give you some amusement Milord. "He said, As Achilles nods his head the man swiftly left.

Achilles enters his tent then sat in front of the woman. "What's your name? "He asks as he gazes at the girl's face using his eyes. The girl didn't answered and it made him angry. "I'm talking to you girl! Speak! "He said angrily. The girl glared at him then spit on his godlike face. He didn't wipe it making the girl feel guilty or be scared of what she done.

Achilles was surprise by the girl's manner so he glared back at her then spoke. "Don't forget that I am your master starting this moment so don't act like I'm like you! "He said angrily glaring at her but she didn't look back at him. Achilles stood up but before that he said something that made her angry. "SLAVE "He uttered the word slave angrily telling her low rank.

Briseis got angry with him then she spoke after Achilles stood. "You know what? "She said shortly but quickly stop to look how Achilles stops then continues. "I rather be a slave than to be a brute like you and your men! "She retorted glaring at him. Achilles turned around then opens his mouth to speak.

"Brute? "He said plainly then scorn. "Yes, I may be a brute but this brute in front of you is powerful than you! And always remember that! "He retorted back but she quickly replied. "Power? "She asks with disbelief. Achilles stopped again but this time he didn't turn around. "Do you think you're powerful than the gods? There's no man granted strengths that the gods have! "She said.

This time, Achilles turned around irritated by her. "Gods? "He stops the starts to stare at the girl's face then continues with a loud laugh. "Do you think that there is no man in this earth who has the power of a god? Do you think the gods can kill? No! Do you think they bleed? No! Do you think they Die? NO! They may be powerful but what will they do with the power given to them if they can't even die, bleed or live the life like mortals. "He said angrily retorting at her.

"Don't mock the gods! " Briseis said angrily. Achilles is starting to fond her attribute but he couldn't continue their nonsense talk any longer. He gritted his teeth then said. "Stay here till I come back! "He said arrogantly then left. Briseis frowned then starts to look around using her eyes for her hands are tied.

Her angry face turned to a poignant one, asking herself when can she leave this place... this miserable place.

She starts to curl her body then starts to cry.

"Hector, Paris... Uncle Priam... I'm scared... I'm very scared... " She said on her mind crying miserably hoping that her cousin Hector and Paris would come and save her but deep inside her she knows that she'll die here with her enemy... with her country's foe.

NIGHT

After Achilles talked to his men he quickly went back to his tent to check if the girl is still there.

When he arrived. He saw her sleeping and tied like an animal that's about to be dine by the hunters.

He sat in front of her. Watching her as she sleeps peacefully. He then realizes that the girl is tied up so he quickly incise the roped then lay her hands gently at her lap. Later, Achilles lay her down on the rug then covers her small body with a blanket.

After that he stood up and gave himself a bath then he quickly went to bed for a nice slumber.

Next morning when Briseis woke up she realize that Achilles is gazing at her. She quickly sat down backing her body as her back bumps the end slab.

She glared at him then spoke arrogantly. "What are you looking at?! " she asks angrily and arrogantly as she glares at him. Achilles' grits his teeth shortly, he looked away then she starts to speak. " Slaves like you should wake up early. Do you know that it's already noon. "He said arrogantly. Briseis rolled her eyes then reply. " I rather sleep forever than to see your hog face! "She replied angrily.

"What did you said?! "Achilles asks angrily wanting to lecture the girl but he didn't. "Stay here till I come back! As for now I want you to prepare my later bath! "He ordered arrogantly then left. Briseis rolls her eyes then did nothing.

Later, A man with long and bronze hair entered Achilles' tent. Briseis was surprised by his presence then the man spoke.

"Hello there. "He spoke. "Who are you? Are you Achilles' son? " She asks. The man laugh then spoke. "No, He's my cousin and he told me to watch over you. "He said plainly then sat beside her. " cousin? You look more like his son for me. "She said gazing at him. "No, I'm just is cousin. "

"He send you to watch over me? Huh, I don't have time to run away... I rather think of a way to kill him than run! "she said angrily. Patroclus was surprise by her manners then he spoke. "I know many men wants to kill him... but I don't think you can. "He said then she smirked. "Yes I can... "She cuts in.

TROY

While Macarious and Hector are talking.

"What do you mean you can't find her?! "Macarious asks Hector angrily. "Look Macarious, I promise you that she'll fine ok so don't worry. "Hector said calming him down. "I promise I'll kill all our foe's just to have her back! "Macarious said angrily. " Don't worry Prince of Hayse for I assure you that she's alright and after she returns we'll start the wedding. "Hector said.
