Bang Bang Bang

I heard this at my door for minutes but it seemed like hours. "Artemis," my mother called out "Wake up Apollo is coming home from his training and you need to go pick him up now hurry!" My mother was always in a rush, when my father would come back from years being out in the Spartans territory from fighting she would always be in rush to prepare him a great big feast. "Artemis you really need to listen to me when I say get up." "Mother does Apollo really have to go to war ?" "Yes," she paused for a while. "If that's his dream to take after your father."

"Hey Artemis why such the upset face you should be happy for me I'm going to take father's place in the war." "How was your trip Apollo? I don't want you to go to war I want you to stay home and take care of all of us." "I just can't."

When we got home we started to talk about my father i never knew that my mother could still talk about him. See my father died at war with the Spartans when I was about six years of age and when the head council of troy came to our hut and said that my father had died Aphrodite, Apollo, and I all heard mother scream and just fall to the floor.We were all reall upset.

About two months passed and Apollo finally got his letter to come to the council to get his equipment for war.Luckily Apollo wasn't there and i was the only one there, so what I did is that I took the letter, read it, and went to war in Sparta.

I left my lucky coin and the family a letter and my father a kiss they all were probably upset.

When I finally arrived Tto the camp I saw the captains, teams, and the most cherrishable warrior ever...Ares. Every one knew Ares, of coarse he is the only one who can defeat a whole army.

I met with my captain and checked in as Apollo. I couldn't believe he thought that I actually was Apollo. The next day we all were going to the Spartan's territory.

"Apollo" a very tall, bulky man called out to me but I was so used to Artemis that I didn't turn around. "Apollo, come forth""Yes sir here I am sir." "We are going to send your army out first" "But we haven't even began to train yet" "But the Spartans are almost here we have to meet them half way at least" "Yes sir"I said wearily.

Back at home I was wondering what they were thinking when they saw my lucky coin my father gave to me before he died.

"Mother !!!! where is Artemis!!" "In here in her bedroom she left us a letter she is going to fight for Apollo." "Mother I really have to leave to go to war with the spartans" "It's to late your already there." "What do you mean?" "Artemis went for you."

"Look mother here's her lucky coin" "We have to at least return it to her so she would have good luck"

When a couple of days past I saw a family coming in the war zone it looked like mine when they got close enough I herd them call out for Artemis.

I started to run towards them I stopped and saw Apollo hold up my lucky coin So I started to run faster and faster and i started to hug them all real hrd whn every one in the army stated to laugh at me i forgot that i was in the war still. I grabbed my lucky coin and put it on my chain and off to war.

After a couple of months i came home from war and said everything was going great but when my sister asked were my coin was i said i gave it to a little girl whose family died in the war for good luck. My sister was up set because she was supposed to get after me.

After i went back to warI i was supposed to be the leader of a new team but it turns out they had already left so I was supposed to go after them and catch up with them. After a couple of days going by I finally saw them and that's when it started a new war that no one was prepared for till the next day I saw a couple of my men die and I was devistated I tried my hardest to help them all but I just couldn't.

I statred to go back to camp by my self and I saw an arrow when I tried to pick it up it was to heavy for my so I decied to lift it up when I got it up to see what it was I relized it was the little girl i gave the coin to my heart was filled with sorrow at how they tricked my heart. I grabbed the coin and put back on my chain in remembrence of her.

The war began again but it was only me this time no one to back me up I just surrenderd my self to the other side and when I got over there I relized it was a trick another dirty trick. As I was going to talk to them to try to go away back home they slit my throat open and right there. I died. I saw them from the heavens every day after that. The people that killed me went to my home and gave them my coin to my mother, sister, and my dearest brother Apollo. I saw them start to cry and hug each other and statred talking with my killers and said they forgave them for what thry did to me and my family.

Now i'm up there with my father and we are both really happy of our family.

I got my information from the coin picture that margaret picked.
