The day started like this: I got up killed a chicken and gave to my friend to pluck the feathers. While he was doing that I went to hunt some real meat. I went to hunt some deer. As I ran after a running deer I was attacked. There were at least 10 people. When I woke up from the fight I was in a cage. When I looked around the cage I saw another 3 people. The place were I was at had a hall which leads to some were. It has another area were there seem to be weapons and armor. It was a strange place and I had no idea were I was. I saw puddles of blood and guts. I even saw a cage of lions and another of rams. Then I finally knew what was going on. I’ve heard of these places. It’s a gladiator arena. How does this happen to me. I am roman and they capture there own for entertainment?!?!

They gave us a small area to walk around in and I met some people. I had over heard some people talking about a escape door in Pompeii. They were talking about breaking out when they get there. As I was listening to them they gave us some swords to practice. I was so strong I destroyed the dummy. They gave us a bow and arrow to practice with. The target had 3 layers. Red on the out. White in the middle and black on the center. They had to sets of uniforms. The better and worse. I was chosen as a best one. I got attached to my sword and I can’t wait until my first fight of my career.
