ARE ALL I HAVE EVER KNOWN

The city was theirs. The rebels charged into Sinuessa, killing Romans and slave owners that stood in their path. While Agron was in full support of this war and the death of Romans, there was one he sought out. One particular name that came to mind. She had saved his brother and he wished to make sure no harm came to her. That no one laid hand on her. So amidst the fighting, his purpose was slightly altered in this case. She had done him no wrong. Quite the opposite in fact, and therefore, did not deserve to fall at the sword of justice. He pushed his way through the crowd, running amidst them and ignoring any Romans that did not pose as direct threat.

Which, was rather uncommon for the German. But his priorities differed in this battle compared to the other. He could have sworn his heart skip a beat when he set eyes upon her. It was her back, but he would recognize that vibrant hair anywhere. A small group of rebels advanced towards her, angry with swords raised as she had a few slaves and citizens in her group. "CEASE!" Agron shouted at the advancing Rebels, his command immediately heeded. They look at him, but his gaze was more fixed upon her as he began to advance towards her, relief flooding him as the fear of her death had caused his hear to beat heavily in his chest.

The city was under attack! Laeta was trying to find a safe way through the city, when she bumped into some of her late husband's slaves. "Run!" She begged of them, not knowing that the rebels were letting slaves live, they begged her to come with them, but she couldn't! She was looking for one person in particular. "I will join you once I--" a scream cut her off, and she pushed against the nearest wall, knowing that others were dying just feet from her. The other ran, but she found her feet unable to move from this spot.

Angry men turned the corner, covered in blood, and armed with weapons. Keeping her body pressed to the wall, she back away from them, using the wall to guide her as they began advancing on her. She city had fallen! The one her beloved father helped build, and her husband had given everything too! It had fallen to mad fucks who cared nothing for what they were killing! They killed so many, and did not question who had done what sin, and which had do nothing!

"CEASE!" a voice called out, and the angry men stopped in their tracks. They glared at her before backing away to go about their killing once more. Even then she did not turn to the voice. Not because she did not know it, but because she did! Her eyes closed as tears fell over her cheeks, and she did not look. Fearful that it was her mind bringing him here in this moment to give her once last reminder. Fearful, as well, that he had joined them. That this was him. Slowly she opened her eyes, just as he got close to her! A sob broke from her lips as she fell toward him, her arms grasping and holding on to him.

Agron moved towards her, the distance closing as he reached out, falling onto him as he wrapped his arms around Laeta, keeping her steadied. He wanted to wipe the tears from her face, but knew this was not the place nor time, especially with all the chaos. Especially considering she was Roman. The sworn enemy. And one that the others would not hesitate in killing. After all, if Agron had not known her before, then she would have been dead by now. Agron looked to the other slaves.

"You will not be fucking harmed. Go!" Because they were slaves, and the rebels did not target them unless they forced target upon their back. In being within Laeta's presence, it may very well do just that. "I must get you to safe place," he said, slightly moving her back though his hands gently gripped either side of her upper arms, lowering his head and body slightly so that he could look directly into her eyes. "Others will not hesitate." To kill her. With that, he gently took her arm, and being moving alongside her, knowing that he needed to take her to Spartacus for he would ensure her protection if Agron appealed to him.

Finally she looked over at the voice, as the others left her sight. "Agron," She breathed his name as he moved closer toward her, and she tried not to think about what him being here meant. He had been a slave, and she had heard of the rebellion. She knew they were killing her city but right now she couldn't think about anything more while he moved toward her. "I must get you to safe place," He gripped her arms and bent his head while looking at her. Her small hands lifted to touch his face, as if to test to see if he was really there before her. "Others will not hesitate." It was then that she begin to remember more then that he was before her. They were killing people, and he stood as one of them.

Agron pulled her into step beside him, and she tried not to look at the blood covered walls of her once beautiful city. His strong hand was on her arm, and her other hand moved between trying to hold herself together and holding onto his hand that held her. "There is no place safe!" She cried, her voice strong with both fear and strength in it. She would get past this, but she knew that it would kill a little bit of her. "Not from Spartacus," the name came out as if he was the most evil and hateful thing one could think of!
