Life of a Spartan Amazon (possibly a love story... i havent decided)
Chapter 16 : Life of a Spartan Amazon(definitely a love story)....part 15
here ya go!
As night fell, a chill flew through the tent. Jenia shivered. The Elite Five were taken from the Agoge. Five children. Why would they take five children. The top two were taken. The worst part of this was not knowing. Five children, Achilles could have been one of them.
Jenia thought and thought until she came to a solution. The Greek forces would infiltrate the Persian camp. Artaxerxes would never see it coming. They would not use a wooden horse, that idea was too conspicuous. No, she would lead a mission of eleven warriors. And she would return some anguish to Artaxerxes. She would destroy his army from the inside out. She would destroy him from the inside out. Now she laughed maliciously at this thought. He had killed Astinos himself. Before she killed him, she would obliterate his armies, reputation, and mind. She formulated the entire plan in thatchair, in her distraught mind. She worked every details for every scenario. Nothing could go wrong, nothing would go wrong. Artaxerxes's army was 120,000 slaves, at least. She would not go so far as to call them strong, or warriors, they were what they were: slaves, forced to fight under a tyrant. They shook with fear and cowered at the sight of the miniature Greek forces.
Jenia was amused. Her calculating mind was reeling and spinning the wheels of war. As herplanwas growing into full form,she summoned to her tent the ten that would accompany her into the belly of the beast.
