      Two Lost Souls

      Melvina struggled to cover herself with the tattered remnants of a shawl that she had stolen from one of the slaves in the lower dungeons. She knew that her situation was hopeless. Melvina and her sister Salva were surrounded, desperately attempting to flee from a growing mob of young gladiators that had been set upon them. Salva was barely ten years old. Melvina had hoped to see her eighteenth birthday in a few days. That was before the centurions burned their home, slaughtered her parents, and took the two of them captive. Now their lives had been reduced to sport.

      Salva had been wounded by the first band of men that rushed toward them. They had been thrown into the arena naked, hungry, and covered in honey. The shawl provided little more than a scant semblance of dignity. Fortunately, Melvina had been able to pick up a broadsword that had fallen onto the ground during the struggle. She had nothing to lose by at least trying to use it.

      Melvina's brother Taras taught her some rudimentary broadsword fighting moves. In her dazed and weary state, she had little hope of holding off the men for any significant length of time. Salva was frozen with fear and Melvina circled her sister's body warily. Three men lunged at her and she gored one cleanly in the liver with a clumsy but effective strike. The remaining two looked at their fallen comrade for a brief moment, kicked him aside, and renewed their awkward attack.

      The crowd grew quiet as they approached. The other slaves scampered away and cleared a path to the two girls. Melvina looked at her sister, smiled, and began swinging the sword in wide circles. Her hand grew sweaty with perspiration as she nervously gripped the handle. The crowd remained deathly quiet. The two men laughed as Melvina tired herself quickly swirling the heavy broadsword above her head. After a few moments, she could barely lift the sword above her head. Faster than her eyes could follow, one of the men grabbed her throat and pulled her off the ground. Her tiny feet dangled above the dusty coliseum floor. She dropped the broadsword as she gasped for air. The crowd began a muffled cheer.

      The young gladiators in training were expected to rape and murder the newly captured slave girls thrown into the arena. The act was considered to be a sort of reward for their hard work. The biggest of the two men grabbed the shawl and threw it to the ground. He pinned Melvina's arms back as his companion ceremoniously removed his tunic. Melvina glanced to her side and saw that Salva was already being ravaged by three new gladiators that had rushed into the fray.

      White hot rage began to build within her as she saw her sister scream in agony as the men seized her body. Three of them grabbed her and attempted to
