It had been a normal day for Penthesilea. Her daily routine went on without skipping a beat. It was getting late and Penthesilea had already changed into her night clothes. The lights were dimmed and Penthesilea had already started up the stairs to her bed. When the knock came at the door she stopped midstep and turned around. It felt like....
She went to the door and looked out the peep hole to make sure, and saw Achilles standing there. He was usually very good about contacting her before coming by. Penthesilea wasn't big on people dropping by without first calling. But it was Achilles and she found she didn't mind. She wondered what he wanted coming by at this hour. So she opened the door to greet him. However, before she said anything she immediately noticed how his hands shook and.... Blood? She looked over his shoulder down the hall and when she saw it was clear ushered him inside. She locked the door behind them and then lead him to be bathroom. "What happened?" There was concern in her voice. Worry. But also curiosity.
