"What do you mean your honey?" Georgios asks with an offensive tone. The boys then stand a few feet away from us.

"Clearly you don't know who I am..." the youngest of the 3 speaks.

"Who are you then?" Nero enters a combat stance.

"I am the son of the great general Lysander!"

"Wait? What?" I blurt out not remembering any Lysander son meaning he must have been completely insignificant.

"Yes! Now give me the honey!" The boy demands now trying to grab our bowl.

"By the gods no!" Nero yells showing his vigor for his now much-loved honey by blocking the teen's hand.

"Do you haVe no respEct?" One of the teenagers screams with a voice crack.

"Do yoU" Georgios mimics him and the insecure teen replies with a fist to Georgios's face.

Georgios falls to the ground and I slam myself into the teen making him fall to the ground. The other two then join into the brawl. One gives a right hook to my face making me reply with my own.

"Nice punch I almost felt hurt." The teenager laughs and I take the opportunity to kick his stomach. I look over and then see how Nero and Georgios fight back to back against the supposed son of Lysander and another teen.

I run to Lysander's son and launch a double-legged kick sending him to a tree. Then the teenager I fought earlier suplexes me into the ground making me groan in agony. 

I look on and see Nero throwing inaccurate punches to the teens while Georgios throws accurate punches that do little damage. They both eventually get thrown down as well making me look up at the beehive.

The bees have reappeared plentiful already getting to work on repairing their colony... I grab a rock from nearby and launch it into the hive! My aim holds true and the nest breaks releasing a swarm of angry bees. 

The bees descend upon us all causing the teenagers to run without thinking while we regain our composure and collect our earned honey.

"Aghhh they're biting me!" Nero screams running the fastest he has ever run.

"Me too, we should've never done this!" Georgios also cries as he outpaces us making it into the living quarters first. We then enter our corner and see Nikolaos eating in our food storage.

"I hope you enjoyed your rest." Georgios sighs and lays down on his stomach immediately taking a nap.

"I have, thanks for asking my redheaded friend. So have you all gotten the stuff or whatever?"

"Yes, we have gotten honey to put on all our wounds to accelerate healing and help us disinfect," I answer him and Nero also falls down into his own bed.

"Thanks, could you put it on my back for me? Then I can do you Damon and um the rest of you since you all went out for this for me too." Nikolaos says with hesitation and he completely lays down as I place honey on his back. After the process, he then does everyone else's back and we all lay down to rest.

"Damon?" Nikolaos turns to me on his bed half asleep.

"Yes, Nikolaos?"

"Do you think if I marry the king's daughter I can have our group eat tasty food and we can sleep on those comfy beds we slept on when we were kids?"

"Nikolaos we still are kids?"

"Then why doesn't it feel like that…"

"Nikolaos we are and not just that... One day we will all eat the greatest delicacies known to man and we will sleep on beds fluffier than the clouds in the air."

"Do you promise Damon?"

"Yes, Nikolaos."

"I'll believe you. I'm glad you became my first friend and you don't have to worry about the rations hahaha." Nikolaos then falls asleep and so do I with a tear falling down knowing I don't have to cut my precious food intake. food intake.
