Jim, Shoop and Kevin stood outside the colosseum. "Maybe we should go in?" shoop said. "mm.. I donno.. it could be dangerous." Kevin answered. "Well we all look roman, right?" "Yeah" "And you, better yet, look like a roman guard" "Yeah..." "So what's the problem?" "okay, let's go"

Charlie was whispering to herself, thinking about those initials. "Use the Colosseum? How is someone supposed to use a building? This can't be correct." She said and then heard a loud growl. The lion's mouth had opened so widely that it could fit her head and half of her body. Her thoughts got interrupted for a while and her eyes got glued on it, her hand holding the handle of the sword even more tightly. "Ένας τρελός ήτο εδώ προ ολίγου. Επήδηξε εν τοις λέουσι. Μάλλον ενόμισε ότι είναι γατάκια. (Α crazy man was here before. He jumped inside the lion pen. He probably thought that they are kittens.)" The handler said. She looked at him, understanding a bit of his words again. She cleared her throat and tried speaking in Greek. "Δεν τον έφαγαν; (Didn't he get eaten?)" She asked. He shrugged. Then another handler entered the room and started speaking in Latin, saying something like "you shouldn't listen to him, he's a crazy drunk." She looked at the Greek again. He lowered his head. "This is weird." She muttered.

OCC: just wondering when did Zang join us.
Max suddenly came from behind the group "Hey guy's, what's up?" "Where the hell have you been?" Kevin asked. "I was just hanging around" "Well good. Let's go inside now" The group stepped inside.

Sam enters the colosseum in deep thought.
"Remember to UTCTSY.. The U must be a verb..
Understand.. Use... Use The Colosseum? Use a building? no.. The trenchcoat had mentioned something about codes... Use the.. codes? Sounds right... Use The Codes To Save Yourselves? He said save the world.. No, he didn't say save anything.. Stop? Use the codes to Stop... no.."
Sam's line of thought was broken by the sudden roar from the audience. Apparantly a new gladiator had entered the field, and the lion keepers was to release a new lion.

She could hear someone announcing the next fight from inside. The handlers got up and headed to the lions. "Someone is going to get eaten now." She said and then noticed something on the collar of a lion. "Wait!" She shouted. They looked at her startled. "SHIRT, forgot to speak in Greek." She said. The Roman handler looked at the Greek. "Keep him here. I'll call the guards." He said in Latin and walked away. She looked at the Greek. "Οδεύω προς τον θάνατο, ορθόν; (I am heading to death, right?)" She asked. He nodded his head. She drew her sword and walked to him. "Άνοιξε τας θύρας. (Open the gates.)" She ordered angrily. He looked at the blade scared and opened the gates, sending the lions inside the arena. "Θα επιλέξω εγώ τον θάνατό μου. (I'll choose my death.)" She said and ran outside, right after the lions. Of course, Charlie wasn't planning to die. She just wanted to reach the lion that attracted her attention.

The Group climbed a big set of stairs, finally reaching the top. "Ho-ly SHIRT.."Kevin exclaimed as the view opened before them. They were standing on top of the whole structure, with the arena opening below them, and thousands of people. The noise was tremendous. Then they saw the gladiator on the field, and the lion facing her. The gladiator had her sword up and was in a battle stance, while the lion was walking backwards and forwards, looking for a moment to strike. Then Shoop noticed. "That's Charlie! How'd she get there?"

Kevin started running. He was not going to let Charlie die. He ran down the thousand or so steps and leaped over the edge, onto the white sand. He reached the lion. The lion turned his head in astonishment. "NOW CHARLIE! NOW!"

"You're a crazy man, Kevin." She muttered and ran against the lion. The guards were startled and even Caesar himself was looking at the two soldiers in the arena. The gladiator that was supposed to get in there was standing at the gate, looking at both of them confused. Charlie raised the sword and jumped. "I apologize to the wildlife." She said before landing the sword.

There was a roar of exitement form the crowd as the lion fell down. Charlie lifted the sword from the animal's head. It had died instantly. Kevin was just standing there, his heart thumping. How did he survive THAT?

Sam ran down the stairs, and stopped at the edge. This wasn't the first time his fear of heights had stopped him. He looked to Kevin, standing triumphant over the lion's dead body.
"Get out of there, all of you!"
Kevin was obviously too surprised at his victory over the lion, that he had forgotten about the three remaining.
"It's behind you!"

Charlie lowered her head and kept on gasping for air. The sword dropped from her hands and she walked to the lion, sliding her fingers in the collar that was partly covered by blood. Once her hand reached what she was looking for she looked at Lando. "This was the point, Lando." She said, showing him what she was looking for and then looked at the other lions. "This is going to be interesting." She said.

Kevin heard Sams call and jumped to the side just in time. While the lion was in the air, Kevin swiveled its throat open. It fell on Kevin, now laying on the ground. "Charlie, help!" He said, as the body was to heavy to move on his own.

She ran to him and helped him push the body away. "There's one more lion. I need Jim's bag or a good plan." She gasped.
