第二章 《Unfortunate fall》
Seeing the effectiveness of our strategy so far, the gladiatrices stop their
advance toward my partner and instead form a defensive half circle. I take
that opportunity and quickly move towards her. I gave her a meaningful wink
as our eyes meet and we take a breath of relief. “How many arrows do you
have left?” I wondered as we mentally prepare ourselves for the rest of the
battle. She replies mysteriously “Just enough to finish them all”. She
always speaks to me in riddles especially when she is mocking me or joking
with me. This is one thing that is special about her that I love and can‘t
really imagine living without. The complex statement she replies to me
always gets me thinking and works my brain when we live in a daily life of
brute force. Believe it or not, it also intensifies the bond of our
friendship.
I supposed that she had eight arrows left, one for each opponent to go down.
I ready myself for another assault by the gladiatrices, but they seem to be
content to stay defensive for the times being.
Her deadly accurate arrows are the most effective way to kill our opponents
in safety, and that is my main goal for this fight: our safety. I try to
think of something as the crowd begins to mutter in boredom. You don't want
the crowd to bore too much or the senators might order beasts to be released
on the field. Strategies we have used in previous battles race through my
mind, and an idea struck me as I warn my partner “Be ready to shoot, I will
distract their defenses for you”. “How do you impose that, my brilliant
partner?” she asked mockingly, of course…
“You will see, just prepare to take a shot” I told her in confirmation.
Unable to figure out my plan, she frowns slightly, but understanding the
vital time we are wasting, she simply nods in acknowledgement. It pleases
me to finally be able to plan out strategies that she can’t understand once
in awhile out of so many times that she was able to save my sorry butt with
her brilliant intelligence...

My plan is simple. Rouse the crowd to distract the opponent. The distracted
gladiatrices will hopefully lower their defenses therefore inviting the
arrows. So enough said, I get right to work. I first start to slowly spin
around and strike my spear upon my shield. Soon the crowd lessened their
muttering and the audience centers their attention back to me. I spin a
whole circle, and quite confident that the gladiatrices won’t charge us for
the moment, I again turned away from them to face the section with the
senators and patricians or the rich people. I raise my spear above my head
and bring it down to stick firmly in the sandy arena floor. Then I give a
slight bow and open my arms to begin my speech. “Brothers and sisters of
Rome”, I took a pause to look around the coliseum. The massive building
became silent except the whistling autumn wind. “For years we fought
against those vicious germen”, I point at the gladiatrices. “Thousands of
Romans lost their live struggling against those unsavory villains”. Again I
pause, giving the audience plenty of time to boo the German gladiatrices in
unpleasant disgust caused by years of war. “But today”, I pluck my spear
from the floor, now with grains of brownish yellow sand covering the faint
red of the smeared blood. I proceed to raise my spear high above my head and
cries towards my enemy “I, will banish you savage beast from our land and
bring victory and glory to Rome once more. Or I will die trying!” Before
the echoes of my holler died down, the rowdy audience sparks off with an
array of shouts and war cries to approve of my cause to bring glory for Rome
. At least half of the coliseum stood up in support, a scene that can be
matched by no other.

Unaware of the reason for the surrounding change, the band of gladiatrices
lowered their shields and some of which even turned around looking at the
crowds in confusion. Hoping in vain to obtain some support from the crowd,
the band of gladiatrices clap their weapon against their shields also
shouting battle cries unfamiliar to anyone else. Their effort only resulted
negatively when many more Romans stood out against the barbarian germens and
some even go out of their way to throw objects at the gladiatrices. Almost
ignoring our presence, the distracted gladiatrices look around at the crowd
in vain. The gladiatrices easily fell in my trap and committed a grave
mistake. Lowering your defense and ignoring our presence is the last thing
you want to do against a quiver of unemptied arrows. See the window of
opportunity to do some damage; I turn around to my partner to tell her of
this situation. To my surprise, she is already taking quick steps toward our
enemy. Just before walking past where I stand, she eyed me a quick approval
and muttered something to me that i didn’t quite catch. My foot tingles
again mysteriously. However i ignored it again and I follow up with her and
after a few more steps she stops and readies the shot. Still mostly unaware
of our approach but occupied trying to settle the emotions of the crowd, the
gladiatrices groan with signs of death. Before long, two arrows fly out and
two inevitable deaths follow. One arrow buries deep in the neck of a
gladiatrix, the second was able to catch another turning gladiatrix clear
between the eye contorting her face to a mesh of blood and damaged bones.
The battle cries of the audience refresh as the germen gladiatrices fall to
their demise. Finally realizing their fought, the rest of the gladiatrices
hurry their defense back against the vital arrows. Still trying to catch
them off guard, my partner released a third arrow as it whistles across the
arena floor targeting the heart of a surprised gladiatrix. Unable to raise
her shield in time, the gladiatrix simply dive away from the arrow’s course
. Still her arm flops up and the arrow skims her left arm and impact against
the arena wall. The spectators near that part of the wall flinch in terror
bringing great amusement to me. However the gladiatrix's arm wasn’t greatly
damaged but still a streak of gleaming red blood flow down her arm rapidly
dripping down onto the arena floor tainting the sand with fresh spots of red
. Now with 2 more gladiatrices dead, we are left only with 6 more to go and
5 arrows left.
Again I strike my shield with the tip of my spear. Bloody sand scatters
around the impact and fall to the floor. Again I rouse the audience with
cries for Rome but this time the gladiatrices won’t fall for the old tricks
and kept their defense ready even as rotten fruits and rocks were thrown
all around them. The downed gladiatrix with an arrow sticking out of her
left shoulder seems content with the arena floor and did not choose to get
back in the fight.
Seemingly harmless to us I ignore the injured gladiatrix and I start taking
firm step toward the rest of the fighting enemy and toward the final
slaughter.

With my partner roughly 10 yards behind me, I raise my weapon and engage the
enemy. The size of our enemy is greatly reduced to half the original, but
they still pose much threat, and any careless mistake i make can be fatal to
our survival. As I test the gladiatrices skill and experience cautiously
thrusting the spear at them here and there from a distance, they show me
some experience with sword wielding apparently fought in previous wars and
were most likely captured by the Roman legions in battle.
The team of gladiatrices also slowly approaches me, trying to surround me
and overwhelm me with their numbers. I side step away from the surround and
we form a stand off again. I repeatedly thrust my spear at the closest
gladiatrix's head. She parries my blow every time, but her focus is now
fixed on to my strikes. Suddenly an arrow lands though her thigh and a dull
crack sounds from the impact as the arrow hits her femur (thigh leg bone).
She stumbles forward as her leg gave out to the pain from the wound and I
quickly drive my spear into her unmasked face. Seeing the fatal blow she
turns her head around and my spear strike hard at her helmet deeply denting
it leaving a deformed helmet behind. The hit knocks her unconscious as she
collapses onto the arena floor. Seeing another companion fall down, the
group of five gladiatrices decided to give up the defensive to committing a
final charge against me. overwhelmed by the combined blows of five
gladiatrices i back step with my shield held high. More strikes land on my
shield and my arm bounce back and forth from the blows. My shield arm starts
to sore and I lower my shield a bit. I still managed to stab a gladiatrix
square in the chest cracking apart her armor and a small stream of blood
seep from the cracked armor. The gladiatrix drops her sword and she lands on
her knees with one hand cupping the wound applying pressure, and the other
still held onto the shield to protect her from the arrows. Able to bring
down another enemy, I give retreat to rest my sore arm but the small
remaining band of gladiatrix follows tightly giving me no pause. Seeing that
I won’t be able to rest, i decide to at least put the gladiatrices in a
bad position. I loop around them sustaining multiple blows on my shield as a
result.
Now the gladiatrices are positioned between me and my partner. The four
remaining gladiatrices realizing that they are unable to defend against my
spear thrusts and my partner’s arrow as they hopelessly quicken their
relentless attack. I raise my shield to deflect another over head blow. At
the same time another sword was swung toward my legs. Unable to bring my
shield down in time, I snap my spear back to parry that blow. However, the
poorly executed parry only slowed the coming hit. Unable to prevent the
inevitable sword swing from impacting my leg, i relax my leg and embrace the
strike. Tensing up will only cause more pain.

Luckily, that is when my partner’s arrow decided to land on the back of the
swing gladiatrix. She lose grasp on the sword as the swing lessened in
power and potential damage. Nevertheless the momentum of the swing still
guides the sword to land upon my leg. The sharp tip of the sword graze
across my shin leaving behind a path of oozing red line. As I stumble back
and lower my shield for balance, another gladiatrix fall to the floor with
an arrow lying firmly within her body. See how valuable of a partner she is?
Always saving me in time and taking out more enemies with her archery skill
than what anyone can do with any other weapon.
Now the two remaining gladiatrices became absolutely hopeless. But seeing me
stumble back, they lunge toward me in a final assault. Adrenalin now pumps
through my body hiding the sores and pain and stand back up immediately to
block their incoming attacks. Another arrow flies over but misses the
gladiatrix’s neck and land in the sand behind me. I sustain another wave of
attack from the berserking gladiatrices as my partner’s final arrow came
across hitting the gladiatrix’s lower back. Out of arrows, my partner puts
down her bow and pulls out her short sword to support me. I caught the
earlier gladiatrix moving suspiciously out of the corner of my eye, but an
incoming blow directed my focus back to the last standing gladiatrix in
front of me. Again I easily block her clumsy sword swings then I slam my
shield forward hitting her hand hard as she loosens her grip on the sword
and drops it on the floor. Weaponless, I made quick work of her. I bashed
her shield aside and sliced her shield arm with my spear. Finally I bang my
spear hard on her helmet knocking her out. Metallic ringing emanates from
the impact as the last enemy fall to the floor. I look to my partner as she
genuinely smiles back to me for our victory. I took a pause and look around
at the roaring crowd. They were so excited of the victory as if they just
defeated the Germanic army and won an honorable battle themselves. Suddenly
the crowd quickly hush in silence, and I look around the arena in wonder. I
realized maybe the fight isn’t just yet over, and my leg again tingles
mysteriously.
The earlier gladiatrix with the arrow sticking in her left shoulder has
stood up and is holding a small weapon in her left hand. Oh no, the
gladiatrix then sling her arm back and launches the throwing weapon toward
my partner. Horror befalls upon my face and I sprint toward her. The small
weapon arcs in the air rapidly spinning toward her. My partner only then
noticed the unusual mood surrounding her and turned around only to see the
sharp blade lodge in her stomach. The crowd again hushes in terror. The
gladiatrix fall back down to the ground after seeing the weapon land. And I.
.. I was lost in desperate despair... I sprint toward my partner hollering
curses at the gladiatrix. I bow down and examine her wound. Blood is already
seeping through the light fabric she is wearing. She murmured a few
unintelligible words to me and then faints away after giving me another
slight smile of grieve. The wound shouldn’t be too deep but if infected can
be extremely deadly. I don’t dare to pull out the knife yet without
professional guidance, so I truly hope the knife is not poisoned otherwise
there might be no hope for her survival. Tears roll down my cheeks as
flashbacks of recent events spark around my head. Oh how close we came to
receiving our freedom, now how far away. The crowd’s eyes focuses intently
on us as I carry her out of the arena down toward the infirmary. Some
clapped for us, many stood, and some booed the gladiatrix...
None of that matters now. How am I going to get the doctor to heal her back
to life is the question. Within minutes, I arrive at the infirmary with a
few escorts that I really didn't want. My legs give out just as I lay her
body down on a blood stained clay bed and after straightening myself I plead
the doctor to heal her. After examining her wound for a few moments, the
doctor looks back at me. I impatiently asked for his answer. he replied to
me with weary eyes that haven't slept for awhile “It can be healed with the
right medicine and work, but give me a reason why I would help her when so
many others are on the brink of death in this slaughtering pen?” he points
toward the other bodies lying on the many beds of the infirmary many of
which have no hope to see light again. The doctor took a step toward me. He
looks intently in my hopeless eyes and told me a phrase that finally brought
my hope back up a little, “Tell me your story, and I will see what I can
do.”
