Perseus knocked tentatively on the door and took a sip from is water skin

"Come in"opening her door .not surprised to see him."so you came.what can i dofor you"

(by the way, after a certain... incident, I might be temp banned so I'll be back in 3 dsays if that happens. try to keep the thread alive though!)
"I... errr..." perseus gulped ad then breathed a sigh of relief as he herad the sound of Roman war horns, "The Romans are coming! Qick, get your equipment and... i..."
He hastily put his pack down on her bed and produced a his reflective shield, winged sandles, invisbility helmet and sword...

~ok~hippolyta grabbed her sword and bow."just when i was about to go to sleep.be safe"

Perseus stared into her eyes for a minute...
2You don't have to come... I can look after the men if you..."

"no.i'll come."she walked out the door.all the amazon women had been waiting for her."wait for my command"

Perseus strode away. He spoke hurriedly to Achilles and jogged ack, smiling:
"Ive been given the rank of general in Heracles' place. ready, Hippolyta?"

"Yes i am.my archers will attack first."the amazonians moved to the top of the wall

Perseus gestured and the Greek archers folowed. He then prepared his men on lines to charge out of the gates...
"God lukc, Hippolyta! good luck, my men!"

"my the gods be with us.Father guild your warriors and artimis help your archers"

There was a bang at the gate... the romans had arrived!
"FIRE! Hurry, Hippolytra!" Vried Perseus and he helped his men hold the gtae agains6 the battering rams outside!

hippolyta orders them.airs fly in the air hitting the roman.they fall one by one

~Ok i guess your out~
Hippolyta walked to Perseus gave him a long kiss."be safe my love"theroman drew near the gates."get ready to fight."

after the archers attacks the Romans backed off.hippolyta turned back to Perseus ."were is you winged horse?never mind .lets not think of the past."holding his hands"you know the gods better than i.i must ask why hasn't Hermes or Dionysus helped us yet.then they are not war gods."she walked back to her quarters.seens this was a time of war she laid down in her armor and waited for Perseus to arrive or Achilles or some other warrior to talk about their attack on the roman army

(I'm back)
The gate's smashed under the force of the siege and Perses ran, hurtling into Hippolyta's quarters...
"Romans... in the city! The city is burning! Come on..."

Hippolyta grabed his hand."how did they smash the gate.never mind.wheres your steed"

*Ajax, the men of Salamis, and the men of Athens stood in a line Ajax in the lead, marching back and forth* Men, this is it. This is where we make our stand. We must drive them away before they destroy the whole city..Fight for your freedom, and your family's freedom. They will escape through the underground sewers below the city, while we keep the Romans distracted. Fight for your city! Fight for your country! And fight for Heracles! *The men let out an uproar of approval. At that moment, the gates began to vibrate. Ajax turned around, the Bloodwrath in his eyes, as Heracles had before* This is for all the boys back home..Odysseus, Agamemnon, and especially Heracles..*Then, the gates bashed open, and the Romans poured through, running straight into Ajax and the Greek army. Romans through torches on the buildings, and cheered as they caught fire. Ajax looked at Perseus and Hippolyta. He waved at them* GO! GET OUT OF HERE, NOW! *He took one last glance as they moved away. He then met up with a soldier in the fray.* Their gone..too bad we couldn't have gone with them..*The soldier nodded* Your right sir..it's a shame..*He gutted a Roman in the throat with his spear* But we must defend the city while our families escape..It's their only chance to not let the Athenians to die out. *Ajax nodded as he ran a Roman through with his spear, and knocked him in the face with the but of his spear* Well said..if we make it out of this alive, I advise we head into the underground sewers and follow theirn tracks. *Ajax kept fighting, knowing he would not make it out alive. Only a miracle would do that*

achilles ripped through several romans, catching up to ajax.." what are you doing, we cant hold them off ourselves"

The amazon fled with hippolyta.Hippolyta turned to face Perseus."come with me to the amazon.it'll take weeks for them to come.there are more women there than this army here"
