The Spartans

"Miranda?" you look at the young lady standing infront of you. She had been your childhood friend and although you have never admitted it you have had a crush on her for years. "Whats wrong?". Miranda looks at you , a tear running down her face. "Are you going off to war.?" she manages to ask you in a pitiful voice. "Yes Miranda i am going. You know i am. I will Never let my fellow Spartans fight without me.". Before you can hardly manage to say your last word you find yourself embraced in a hug. "Please come home safely. I will ask the Gods to watch over you."
