You would think I would learn from my mistakes and not throw myself down a hill to escape something killing me, but I can't remember my mistakes so that doesn't work. when I was about half way down the hill I realised just how bad of an idea it was as I nearly crashed into a boulder. I swerved to the side and fell off the plate, rolling the rest of the way down the hill and into the bushes.

I groaned just wanting to lie there but I knew I had to get going again, I got up and inspected my bruises hoping they wouldn't last to long when I noticed two kids standing outside a tunnel entrance. they seemed to be wearing roman armour, jeans and purple T-shirts (not my fashion choice I was always more into orange I don't know why). I knew I had to get to these kids my spidery senses told me this was the place I was trying to get to all along, but something inside me was telling me this wasn't my territory whatever that meant.

Next to me was an old hippie lady lying in the bush she looked like she needed my help. When I asked her what her name was she said 'June' with a twinkle in her eye. That was weird. Then the gorgons reappeared, ah great my luck is amazing.

"You have a choice," the strange lad- June said to me, "you can leave me here at the mercy of those beasts or you can carry me to camp, it is what those kids are guarding, you see I can't walk there on my own." she showed me her swollen ankles and I thought for a second but then the gorgons spread their wings and started swooping down.

I quickly lifted her up, I was stronger than you would think, what else do you think I did with my life before I lost any memory of it, then again I could've been a coach potato I don't know, and started to run across the high way. I don't know where this burst of energy came from, I could've been the rain that started pouring down but honestly I have no clue.

With every step I took the old ha-June became heavier and heavier but I kept going dodging cars and eventually I reached the tunnel to camp. the boy that was there nicked an arrow and started shooting at the gorgons, when they got back up he started grumbling about how that should have killed them.

"Welcome to my world," is all I could reply

The girl quickly hurried me and June inside the tunnel while the boy, Frank I think she said his name was shut the door.

"Onwards, (y/n) Jackson! through the tunnel and over the river!" June said

The girl, Hazel I think said she would hold them off whilst we went further into the tunnel and Frank cursed in another language it sounded like Latin. but I was so tired now I was out of the rain and my whole body ached.

As we ran along the corridor I saw a square of daylight at the end when June started singing which didn't help but then the ceiling collapsed.

"Shouldn't we check on Hazel?" I asked worried for the little girls safety

"No she is good underground she'll be fine," Frank replied well at least we don't have to worry about the gorgons now they are squashed which is a relief.

"Where are we?" I asked

"Where do all roads lead?" the sack of potatoes in my arms answered

"Detention?"

"Rome child, Rome."
