"I sent a small regiment to the hidden pass, pray to the gods no one informs the Persians" said King Leonidas. Soon the Persians advanced up a nearby hilltop. "Hurricane" said Askelios. "No brother Persians" said King Leonidas. "This is when we fight them, this is where we stand this is when they perish" said Leonidas. "Earn these weapons men" said Alexanderos. "Kill kill kill" shouted the Spartans. Soon a Persian scout rider came up the hilltop. "Spartans drop your arms" said the scout rider. "Persians" shouted Leonidas. "Come and the take them". Soon a trumpet sounded and the Persian infantry advanced the war was on. "Stand firm, show no mercy, but take from them everything they stole from us" said King Leonidas. Soon the Persians charged into the Spartan phalanx, "Push" said Josephian. Eventually the Spartans pushed back the Persians and started to kill them. Soon the Spartans pushed the Persian infantry to a gorge. "They look thirsty" said Skemenios. "Well let's give them some water" laughed Leonidas. Soon they pushed the Persians off of the gorge. "We did a heck of a good job" said Alexanderos. "Victory" shouted Leonidas. Another trumpet sounded and the sky grew dark as hell as the Persian archers fired arrows into the air. "Shields up" shouted Leonidas. Leonidas  laughed as the the arrows came down. "Milord what's so funny" asked Skemenios. "Fight in the dark" said Josephian, "Xerxes thinks Greece will surrender but what he doesn't know is the 300 Spartans are the strongest fighting force in the world" said King Leonidas. Eventually the arrow rain stopped. "Recover" said Alexandros. "Today no Persian lives" said King Leonidas then the Persian cavalry came charging then they slaughtered the Persian cavalry one by one.
