| - My son.. you will be a great man.. do everything you can to bring glory to those around you.. leave me here, and join your father in Italy.. the wonderful gifts.. you will lo--
* Julius cut her off, smiling..* Mother, you dont understand.. im here to break you out tonight.. lets go to England!
* She begins to sob, and cry out loud.. only letting up when she sees little Julius pull a key from under his robe. A grin from ear to ear grows on his face as he unlocks the door.* Julius, this is crazy! I know mother.. lets just get to England..
* They run.. reaching a set of guards, and without making too much noise they slide away. Through the bushes and in the darkness of the night. A man is heard running and screaming while a loud yell is heard. Aticus must have noticed Julius was gone, and checked on Ashleigh.. the alarm was raised. Guards were running around with metal clanging together in the background... Julius leads his mother to a dock. A ship was setting sail for England on this night.. it was nearly time.. Julius jumps on the ship as it began to set sail and before his mother could jump a sword reveals itself, sticking from his mothers chest. As the vessel sets sail into the open sea Julius stares at his mother, who fell from the wound. Guards tackle her and bring to life to a hault.. The ship vears itself, setting its corse around Spain, making stops along the way.* Eh! 'oo are ye?
* Julius was spotted around the straight of Gibralter during a nightly escape to view the city. He had returned to the ship on the night it was supposed to set sail, but was found...* Im Julius sir.. I want to go to England..
* The man smiles, allowing Julius to jump on the ship and join the crew. Julius spent the nights drinking with the crew of the ship known as "El Eight".. The days were spent sailing the seas. It was a great relax from the constant teachings of Military and the arts. He had also picked up the Lute along the way. Playing tunes from Italy by ear, and giving the cruise a gentle feeling. Thinking about how he is going to lead his life, and those last words his mother said to him.. His currupt father, nothing to his name but a mere 50 pounds won in a poker game with the guys, and a new life in England.. * I swear I will root out curruption in the world.. Whether it takes my life or not..
* On the arrival of England Julius arrives in Southampton to see a large city. He meets a man in the taverns, and the man fuels Julius's Hidden temptation for war and the arts with three words. "Ill join you."* The first stones of the Octavian Legion were then set into place...
