Connor: Doom Chapter 2
Hector came toward me thrusting his sword in the air menacingly. "You kill me but now me kill you.", Hector said, his mouth forming a hideous evil grin. As soon as he tried to strike another hit I jumped away. Eventually the raft stopped moving. Suddenly, as I was about to step ashore I looked at the river "I remember this place I have been here before" I said thinking aloud. Then the short man replied "Yeah, Yeah I know it appeared in one of your dreams. I've heard it all before, man." I wanted to call him an idiot, but I couldn't find the nerves to do so. "Sir you don't understand. I mean I really was here before, like when I was young." The reply came, "Now that you mention it, I do remember a water nymph by the name of Thetis dipping her son in the river and I asked her son's name. Her reply was 'Achilles.' That is all I remember, end of story." I suddenly remembered my name, "I am Achilles. Greek war hero. I killed Hector." Suddenly I felt the eyes of the dead looking at me, like you're the Achilles. I grabbed the arrow from my ankle, it hurt and I nearly fainted. Suddenly the short guy ran over and bandaged my ankle. "My weak spot, did my mother dip me into the Styx by the ankle?" I asked as I stood up clutching the arrow in my hand. Suddenly, the short guy said "Yes Achilles, you are right." I got up and walked toward the big castle in the distance. On my trip through the underworld I didn't see anything in my life as far away as that castle. I had a feeling that I had gained a few friends by saying my name and yet I have also gained more enemies than just Hector. No doubt they were most likely Trojans rather than Greeks. I didn't quite think I would ever make it out of the underworld known as Hades. I was sure I was one hundred percent doomed and this place was getting creepier by the moment.
