The New Gods (Erotica in Ancient Greece)

Prologue

It's getting darker, I thought to myself as I waved to my mates back at the club entrance.

"See ya lads!" I turned my back on them and walked down the middle of the street, "Yeah, til' next time Will!" I hear them shout behind me, their voices getting quiter as I walk. It's almost silent, I can only hear my foot steps and the faint music from the club. I hear muffled scream.

It was a girls scream, I walk quickly toward the screams not giving the possible danger a single thought as I rush into an alleyway.

"Hand it over then!" I hear a shadowed figure say to the young girl. I watch the girl frantically look through her handbag, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Hey, stop there." The shadowed figure steps towards me with a rather unusual looking knife clenched in his hand.

"Calm down and leave, no one needs to get hurt" I say, slowly putting myself between the girl and the mugger.

"Just give me the money and I'll go!" The mugger says to the girl as she quivers in fear. "Put the knife, down" I say reaching out to get the knife off the mugger. He jerks the knife towards me slightly as I step forward and collide with the knife wincing in pain as the girl behind me screams and runs off.

My whole stomach started to burn up, I look at the figure then fall to my knees, holding my stomach I could faintly see blood covering my hands from the light of the street lamps.

Realising what he's done the man fled and I was left alone in the alleyway bleeding to death.

My whole body went numb as I slowly drifted into an eternal slumber.
