[Just a heads up that I’m going to be attempting to get caught up on my other account before I start cleaning house over here.  If we have threads/are plotting something out, I promise that nobody has been forgotten.  I’ve just been wrangling sickness and lack of muse for about the past week.]

"Did you know about this?"

"If you do this, they will never stop being afraid of you."

"I can't control their fear, only my own."

"Can you move your seat up?"

"Couldn't you have done that earlier?"

"I hate you."

"Clearly retirement doesn't suit you, get tired of playing golf?"

"Well, I played 18, I shot 18, just can't seem to miss."

"First time for everything."

"Made you look."

"Anyone ever tell you you're a little paranoid?"

"I know you're nervous and you have every right to be, but you're lying."

"Do you even remember them?"

"I remember them all."

"How long are you gonna play both sides?"

"Are you incapable of dropping your ego for one god damn second?"

"I'm not the one who needs to watch their back."

"Are you sure about this?"

"I can't trust my own mind."

"So you like cats?"

"How long do you think you can save your friend from me?"

"Well, then... what are you doing here?"

"I didn't want you to be alone..."

"The people that shoot at you, usually wind up shooting at me."

"I don't do that anymore."

"Well, the people who think you did are coming here now. And they're not planning on taking you alive."

"That's smart. Good strategy."

"It always ends in a fight."

"Shit! I thought it was a water truck. My bad!"

"You seem a little defensive."

"Well, it's been a long day."

"Oh, you're going to have to take this to the shop!"

"Who's speaking?"

"It's your conscience. We don't talk a lot these days."

"Are we still friends?"

"That depends on how hard you hit me."

"Give me back my ____!"

"I said I would help you find him, not catch him."

"What's up tic-tac?"

"I can do this all day."

"Ugh...what time zone is this?"

"Sometimes I just want to punch you in your perfect teeth."

There were plenty of things she wanted to say, but Neoma kept silent. She knew Maahes was stubborn and there was nothing she could say that would convince him otherwise. "I won't try to change your mind." She took a deep breath. "But I won't be here when you return."

That was their problem.  They were both so damn hard headed it was comical.  But this was an issue that Maahes wouldn’t budge on.  If Neoma got involved, she would only get hurt.  He couldn’t live with that.  “That is a risk I will have to take.”  He cast his gaze toward her and sighed heavily.  “I had hoped that you would understand..”

Neoma's hands clenched into fists before she allowed them to relax. Her gaze never once left his face. This must be what it's like, she thought. All those times when she told him she did not need his help, had rejected his aid. It seemed it had finally turned around on her. She lifted her head, a note of defiance crossing her features.

Maahes held her gaze stubbornly.  For once, this wasn’t her fight and he wasn’t going to let her get involved if he had a choice, even if that meant facing her ire now.  “You look as if you wish to say something.”  He commented.

Word of rebellion began to travel swiftly across Rome, of the Thracian who led the horde of gladiators in an uprising that had laid waste to the house of Batiatus and every soul within.  Capua was far from this ludus...wherever it might be.  Maahes unfamiliar with this land save for the ludus itself and the limited portion he had seen of the city when being transported from the villa to the arena and back.  Still, the other gladiators spoke about it in hushed whispers to prevent unwanted ears from hearing, as if just the mention of his name would summon Spartacus to deliver them all to treasured freedom.  Maahes held no such belief.  He held no faith in these lands, these people that stood as brothers but were strangers, nor did he hold to the belief that salvation would be brought on the wings of a rebel gladiator.

“I will not even hazard to guess why you are conversing with aliens and what could have possibly been said to offend your sensibilities.”  He could only assume that the German was drunk.

[fvckthegods-deactivated20180606]

“You didn’t see ‘em?” He asked, gesturing vaguely away from himself. He could have meant the next room or the next city. An empty bottle of cold medicine lay discarded on the floor and he turned, coughing wetly into his arm. “Fucking germs..Fucking aliens..”

[liongodofwar]

Maahes turned and looked in the area where Agron had motioned.  The man had lost fucking mind.  “No... I fear they left before I returned...”  He answered only to humor Agron before plucking the emptied bottle from the floor by his feet.  “I found the culprit to your alien problem.  You’re drunk as a tavern wench on cough syrup.”  If Agron hadn’t been coughing his lungs out, Maahes might have laughed at the sight.  “What you need is copious amounts of sleep.”

“Victorious..” Agron knew nothing of these lands, with seemingly endless deserts and sand the likes of which he’d never known existed. Perhaps Egypt stood as ultimate arena? “I am of mind that our new Dominus would not see us free, no matter how well we perform.” Voice was cautiously low. He assumed that laws were much the same as they had been for Roman slaves. To even voice rebellion would mean the end of all who dwelt within domicile.

“What I speak of would be my end..” Agron turned and drove wooden blade against palus, face screwing up in concentration. “I was once offered such at hand of bond brother. I would extend such to you.”

A chance. Either he would see himself truly fallen and punished. Or they would begin to plot a way out. Either way, he would see stars changed for him. Agron would not see shackle of slavery last much longer.

[liongodofwar]

“No.  The man sees nothing but glory and coin to fill his purse.”  Maahes had seen enough of the games before becoming a participant to know such.  “He would see us die of old age upon the sands before freedom was willingly given..”

Though he played the role of naive gladiator, he knew exactly what Agron spoke of.  Open rebellion.  Taking freedom instead of waiting for it to be given.  “To me?”  Maahes asked with brows lifted.  “You speak of madness...”

A chance at freedom for all those that had been enslaved.  Even if they were to perish in the attempt, a fleeting moment of freedom was worth more than a lifetime of servitude, of death on the sands.

“Madness I would see come to fruition.”

The space between his brows creased and a frustrated chuckle threatened to escape the Syrian’s lips but soon refrained from doing so when he felt the warrior hand cupping his cheek. It was a soft contrast to the wild beast he seemed to be.  ❝You have a position among these men and women, one I used to have as a body slave. Somehow, I feel like I’ve slipped lower than what I once was.❞ A confession he longed to spill but was simply unable to break word with any of these people but looking up at Maahes’ eyes, the words seemed to be spoken on their very own. 

          ❝——I am no warrior. Making a sword an extension of arm remains too short of reach… It’s FRUSTRATING.❞

[liongodofwar]

“Lower?”  Maahes asked incredulously, raising eyebrows.  “You stand as free man now, as I did when first freed by Spartacus.  I stood gladiator before but position within this camp was earned.”  He wasn’t certain how to convey such to the little man.  He remembered the feeling well of being the outsider, the one who didn’t belong.  Maahes was champion of the ludus, but gladly shed title to earn freedom.

“Soon it will not seem so.  You will wield blade as easily as I before long.”

“Always two, there are. No more, no less. A master… and an apprentice.”

“Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering. I sense much fear in you.”

“If and when they find us, they will crush us, grind us into tiny pieces and blast us into oblivion!”

“That is the sound of a thousand terrible things headed this way.”

“This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them!”

“From the moment I met you, all those years ago, not a day has gone by when I haven’t thought of you. And now that I’m with you again… I’m in agony.”

“It may be difficult to secure your release.”

“Well, you know, it- it wouldn’t have to be that way. We could keep it a secret.”

“Why do I get the feeling you’re going to be the death of me?”

“You’re asking me to be rational. That is something that I know I cannot do.”

“Don’t make me kill you.”

“If you’re not with me, then you’re my enemy!”

“So this is how liberty dies… with thunderous applause.”

“To cheat death is the power only one has achieved, but if we work together… I know we can discover the secret.”

“You’re breaking my heart! You’re going down a path I cannot follow!”

“Don’t be too proud of this technological terror you’ve constructed.”

“I find your lack of faith disturbing.”

“I’m getting too old for this sort of thing.

“I’m surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself.”

“In my experience, there is no such thing as luck.”

“I can’t keep the vision out of my head. They’re my friends. I’ve gotta help them.”

“If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.”

“There is no escape! Don’t make me destroy you.”

“This deal is getting worse all the time.”

“You have failed me for the last time.”

“I know there is good in you.”

“No, you’re coming with me. I won’t leave you here. I’ve got to save you!”

“Soon I’ll be dead, and you with me.”

“This is an unexpected pleasure. We are honored by your presence.”

“Your overconfidence is your weakness.”

She didn’t like being trapped. And she didn’t like being interrogated. A heavy sigh came from her and Neoma lifted her head to look up at him. “They were no one,” she repeated. “Men who are lower than roaches, or fleas. Pests. Idiots.” She was still angry, and it showed in how her blue-green eyes blazed. “They were looking for some fun and I came along. A matter of circumstances.”

But they’d had their fun until she’d stopped him. “I fought them. They stopped. But I know they’re angry and I’m sure they’ll come find me. But they won’t find me here.”

She tasted blood when she licked her lips. “They’re not worth it, Maahes.” But what she really meant was she wasn’t worth it. Not worth is trouble in doing whatever it was he wished to do. Avenge her, care for her. 

When Neoma took in a deep breath, she winced, feeling the pain in her ribs. She exhaled shakily this time. Adrenaline was wearing off. “It was all a mistake.”

[liongodofwar]

Maahes didn’t want to treat Neoma like a captive, but it was the only way that he knew of to get through to her and get some answers if he was lucky.  “That does nothing to excuse their actions, even if they stand as beings lower than vermin.”  He shot back with a gruff noise before letting his hand fall.

“No.  They will not find you here.  That does not mean you are my prisoner.”  He was starting to regret such rash action and hung his head a bit.  Maahes was a fighter, a protector.  Old habits died hard.

Instead of pulling away, he offered her an outstretched hand.  “At least grant me permission to tend to your wounds.”
