As I woke up
in the middle of the night, I realized that
something was not right. I could hear the horses running. Not a
single
horse but an entire horde! I got up and went outside to get a glimpse
of
what was happenning. My heart completely stopped beating for a few
seconds
when I saw a small army raidind towards my village. I instantly
started
screaming for help. What help could there be? We were only a small
village
with a few inhabitants, we didn't have anything to help or protect us.
My
heart was filled by terror as I saw them enter the village with torches.
The next
minutes went disorientingly quick. The screams, the
blood, the fire. My village was left pillaged and burning. My
family...
dead. My mother, my father and my sister were all dead in the fire
that
burned my house. I tried to save them but to no avail. But I survived.
I
lived and I shall extract my revenge on the one person who led this army.
I
shall destroy the person whose name I heard some general yell during
the
raid. I shall kill Xena!
