I was aware this would happen and I'd fight by side of Odysseus one last time. Telemachus helped us and blood splattered everywhere. I prayed to all the gods I would be able to survive this and see my way through. Though it was a 3 to 100 I know with all our practice and experience we had the upper hand. I killed many man and I didn't know if they really deserved it. I did this for Odysseus and maybe its the last thing I would do for him so I swung my sword and fought with all my heart.
I was growing short of breath and saw one man run towards me and look of desperation in his eyes. I quickly turned, ready to defend myself. He was fresh and strong and I felt a wave of uncertainty roll over my body. The man stabbed, closely and I was lucky to have blocked it at the last second. And as he was in a short daze from the strength of my defence I stabbed him in the heart. I felt a surprising guilt fill me, but there were other men to kill and I shoved it to the back of my head. I was loyal to my captain and he needed this to be with his Penelope.
