Alexi glanced over at Maria, "Maria, that sounds like normal to me. I never had a normal life, normal family" He said, shaking his head and returning his gaze to the floor. She probably wouldn't like this, he had scratched days down here, keeping count, but he had also buried some other things, he wondered vaugly if they were still here. He continued dragging his fingers carefully excevating the area.
"Oh, cool" He said, the little note book he had kept was still here, completely destroyed, except for a few pages. He pulled back, completely engrossed in his find now.

Maria sighed. "Of course.." she murmured, shaking her head. Gently, she leaned against a stone wall, looking into the pen. She remained standing, where as Alexi was practically digging in the dirt for something. Maria narrowed her eyes, noticing the tick makrs scracthed into the walls. She shook her head then, shocked.
"This was yours...." Maria whispered. "Wasn't it?" Maria watched as Alexi picked up a book from the dirt. She sighed and nodded, that answered her own question.

"Yea, this was my, for lack of a better word, home" He said, shaking his head, glancing over at her.
"Sorry, this wasn't much of a suprise, but I really did need to come back here" He said, digging a bit more. He smiled, pulling a slightly rusted dagger from the dirt. They weren't supposed to have weapons, but this had been his older brother's, and he had hid it. He scratched some of the rust off, smiling and shaking his head. He felt an overwhelming sadness, realizing the last time he had seen his older brother had been the day he had been sentenced to the auction block. His older brother had been a soilder as well, but he had never been accused of stealing, and had often come to see him fight, though he had never been able to speak to him, just see him.

"Home is where the heart is love.." Maria murmured, shaking her head. She didn't want to agrue with him about this; it would be too hard to make him see from her point of view. Maria gave a light smile with a small shrug.
"It was a surprise..." Maria said, chuckling lightly. She tilted her head, watching as Alexi continued to dig in the dirt, pulling out an old rusted dagger from his hole.
"You left those there?" she asked quietly, genuially curious.

"So I guess that makes my home with you now" He said, flashing her a small grin. He leaned back on his heels, before rising to his feet, this was all he had left behind, his armour, his sword, all that was at Sven and Vlad's house, as he had been wearing it when he had 'died'.
"Had to leave it here. When you die in the Colisuem, you're not brought back here, you're taken straight out to that tunnel I showed you. I couldn't come back for it" He sighed, shaking his head and frowning.
"I couldn't risk coming back, having my friends, master see me, they would have flipped, and well, at that point, I didn't have the power to disobey my master. He would have taken advantage of me, and I'm sure you can see the worry of having a vampire controlled by a human" He sighed, "I knew I'd come back for this stuff, it was just a matter of when"

Maria couldn't help but smile lightly at the grin Alexi flashed her. She rubbed her arms then, listening to Alexi and shaking her head. She didn't say anything, since at this point she didn't want to get angry again.
"Yes, having a vampire fighting against humans...fell, not exactly a fight..." Maria murmured, looking over her shoulder for a moment before looking back at Alexi. She sighed lightly and shrugged a bit. Looking back at the things in Alexi's hands, Maria tilted her head gently. "Oh, I see..." she murmured quietly, nodding. She still had things stashed away in Spain. Things she was afraid to retrieve, things she wasn't even sure was still there.

Alexi smiled, looking over at her, walking across the dirt floor to her. He wrapped his arms around her, letting the stuff fall to the ground for a moment. He kissed her cheek.
"You can tell me how you feel Maria. I know you hate this stuff, I can tell, and I don't mind you venting. I'm sure I'd do the same, and I understand" He said, grinning at her. He could feel her anger, and he knew she was going to explode eventually.

Maria sighed. She slid her arms around his neck then, resting her forehead against his shoulder. "No, it's not fair to you..." she said, shaking her head. "You know I'm angry, so I won't say I'm not. But I'm not angry at you, I'm angry at what you were put through. People aren't meant to be caged up and housed in these...these...things!" Maria said, her voice quiet, as she waved at the pen Alexi had stood up from.
"I don't understand how you could call this place a home; you were tortured, enslaved, beated, broken, and thrown into the dirt!" Maria swallowed, feeling her voice crack as she spoke. She hadn't cried in a long, long time. She almost couldn't believe she was close to tears right now. Maria shook her head, pulling her arms away from Alexi, rubbing her face, and running her fingers through her hair.

Alexi stepped back, wincing a bit. She was pissed, but he really didn't know what to say.
"Maria, love, I know you can't understand why. But, it is. I mean, it was all I knew as a human, and well, here, I felt right. Like I belonged. That's what they made you think Maria, made you believe this was all you were good for. The other men, the gladiators I was housed with, that was my family, they were all I had. I couldn't see my real family anymore, it was forbidden. So not the place, but the people made it home for me. Like you said, home is where your heart is, and for a long, long time, this was where my heart was"

Maria sighed, rubbing her face once more, placing her hands on her hips. She shook her head gently. She rubbed a hand over her lips, looking at the pen Alexi had before back up at him. He was right, it wasn't something she could really understand. She was trying to, for his sake. Mentioning the other gladitors made a little sense but the over all picture was still infuriating.
Still, Maria nodded. She didn't want to be angry; this had been his life, something he wanted to share with her. Maria sighed then, rubbing her arms gently. "That makes sense..." she murmured, not really sure what else to say lest her anger got the best of her once more.

Alexi sighed, he knew she was still livid.
"Mhm" He sighed again, this had been such a bad idea. He was nearly overjoyed to be back here, thinking about what had happened, but she was sort of dampening that, not that he cared. She had every right to be angry.
"Maria? You're going to explode, I can tell. I've known you way to long, so please, don't dwell in your anger, you'll only get more and more aggrivated" He said softly. He knew her too well, he knew she'd supress it until she'd explode, and , well, that would just suck, cause she'd be angry for days, and he'd have to listen to her tirade.
"Honestly Maria, I know that you don't want to upset me, but you know, you want upset me. I can understand how you feel, even if I can't feel that way myself. I know I was treated awful Maria, I know that, but for me, that was normal" He sighed, looking at her with a small frown.
"I love you Maria, I do, but please, tell me how you're feeling. I don't care, I know you'll rage later, and well, I dunno if Maddie needs to hear that" He smiled, trying to make light for a moment.

Maria gave a wirey smile. He'd known her for too long to be fooled by her poor attempts at masking her anger. They're bond was probably telling him how angry she really was. Folding her arms over her chest, Maria merely shook her head again.
"I just might...." she murmured; if she did, her raging would probably be in spanish. In which case it didn't matter what she said since no one would understand her. Maria smirked at the thought. She bit her lip then, hearing Alexi say that this life was normal to him.
"See? That's what angers me!" she said. "How could this have been normal for you? How long were you here for, most glaidtors didn't last a year! You had a life before all this! That life should be normal, not any of this." Maria waved her hand at the pen before turning her back on it and walking out into the aisle to pace.
"And I love you," Maria said then, looking at him with a sincere face. "Thats probably why I'm so angry. Knowing that the person I love most in this world was...was treated like some...animal...." Maria whispered. She walked over to him then, taking his face in her hands gently. "Not the extrodinary vampire that you are." Maria smiled lightly then, passing a hand over his cheek and into his hair. Her gaze fell to his chest then, where she knew his long scar was under the shirt. "I'm just...apalled really, knowing you were forced into this life..." she murmured, her hands falling to his shoulders gently before back to her side.

Alexi sighed. "No Maria most gladiators didn't last longer then a few years, I however was here from the time I was fifteen to twenty one, which was when I died. So sadly this became normal for me. Years passed this was all I knew all I learned. So I'm sorry it upsets you to hear that, but it was my reality" He ran anxious fingers through his hair, sadness and confusion permeating him.

Maria's mouth fell open. "Twenty-one...love that was four shy of ten years! Six years they kept you here?!" Her hands clenched into fists then but she took a quick breath to relax. Her face calmed with another breath and she let it out slowly.
"Well, it's over now, it's done with." Maria murmured. There, if she thought about it that way, her anger lessened. Too bad his master wasn't around, Maria wouldn't get to kill him herself for treating Alexi like a dog. Maria knew better then to say that outloud though. She took his hand, squeezing it gently.
"I'm sorry I got angry. I wasn't really expecting everything you told me..." Maria said quietly, smiling lightly. "You haven't told anyone about this have you?" she asked then.

Alexi sighed "Maria I haven't even told you everything that happened" He admitted sadly. He loved her to death but she would flip if she found out the over the other stuff.
"Vlad knows most, but besides him no one does" He slumped back against the stone wall, confused now. He slipped down wrapping his arms around benklt knees. "What happened to me?" He had thought he knew but now, now he was upset; confused. He looked at Maria, striken, stunned. She had made him realize how miserable his life had been.

Maria shuddered at the thought that there was more horro to this story. "Ay Dios, mi amor..." she breathed, as he pulled away from her.
"What happened to you?" Maria asked then, slightly confused by the depressing question. She sat across from him on her knees, resting her hands gently on his arms. He was upset now, and that in turn made her worried and angry at the same time. "Alexi, what do you mean?" she asked quietly, not fully understand what he meant by that.

Alexi looked at Maria, eyes wide. He had always believed strongly in his life but Now, now he really didn't know who he was. "Maria, who am I?" he asked, horrified about his life. He was shaken, stunned. He felt tears welling up in his blue eyes and proceed to slide down pale cheeks

Maria's shoulder's fell. The question Alexi asked her sent ice through her and her expression hardened. "Alexi, look at me.." she whispered quietly. She took his face in her hands, brushing the tears away as they rolled down his face.
"Remember the first time we met?" Maria asked quietly. "Back in England, all those years ago. Me and Carlos had just gotten into a fight; I was still restless in those days...and you talked to me. Told me how important my family was, helped me get through the problems I was having..." Maria kept her voice quiet, her eyes on him, her fingers brushing away his tears.
"Or that time in London...you were there after I came out of my first blood lust..." Maria did her best not to shudder; that day had been very grim for everyone, not just Maria.
"That's who you are, Alexi. You were always there to help, and you stand by everyone you care about. All of this..." Maria said, looking away from him to glance around. "That's who you were, but this is no longer you. This isn't who you are anymore. That life is over."

Alexi stared at Maria nodding his head though he wasn't sure I'd he could believe that. He Leaned forward resting against her needing her. He understood what she was Saying but he still felt like hr was having an identity crisis. "I dunno, I'm so lost Maria I always thought I knew who I was and well now, now I have no idea." he felt more tesrs spilling down his face he just didn't know what to do

Maria sighed, letting Alexi's head rest against her shoulder, wrapping her arms around him. "It's because you came back here..." she told him quietly, brushing his hair from his face, kissing his forehead gently.
"Those years you spent here Alexi doesn't make up who you are. Not by a long shot mi amor..." Maria said, shaking her head then, tightening her grip on him. She sighed, looking over her shoulder then.
"Come on, let's get back to the hotel..." Maria said quietly, standing up gently and pulling Alexi to his feet along with her. Being here so long probably wasn't helping him any.

Alexi let her lead him from the coliseum. He couldn't talk let alone focus righ Now. They stepped into the slowly brighning roman night his blu eye clouded a bit. He was leaning on Maria releaved to have her to help him, save him. He wandered with her back to the hotel he didn't plan on doing anymore sight seeing, he doubted Maria would let him anyway. He knew she was overprotective and well right now, he needed her to be. He closed his eyes letting her lead him, child-like in his need. He'd need her to do a lot for him right now his confusion, pain was controlling his mind and well he was basically useless.

Leading Alexi out was only difficult through the tunnel. She kept his arm over her shoulder, and the tunnel grew narrow before opening up onto Rome. Maria sighed, seeing that they sky was lightening; the start of sunrise. They had been down there all night. She glanced at Alexi for a moment, seeing the distant look in his eyes as they walked down alleyways towards the hotel. Maria was pretty sure of where she was going right now, which was good, considering Alexi probably couldn't tell her which was east.

Once upstairs in the room, Maria set him down on the bed. She closed the door, locking it gently before drawing the curtains over the windows. The sun was starting to bother her. Although Maria was impervious to the sun, there were few times where it was just a little too bright. After being underground all night, now was one of those times.

Walking over to the bed, Maria slid off her shoes before sitting next to Alexi. She wasn't going to ask if he was alright; she could tell from his face that he wasn't. Brushing his hair from his eyes, Maria tried for a light smile before leaning over and kissing his forehead softly.
"It doesn't do well to dwell on the past love..." Maria said quietly. "A very good friend of mine once told me that.." she smiled then since it was Alexi who had said that to her.

Alexi sighed he didn't even remember getting into the hotel room. He glanced around when he was set on the bed. Maria was fussing over him and he smiled at her sadly.
"I know but please I need to dwell" it was true he was ou now just coming to terms with what had happened to him. He winced shaking his head, like a soilder freshly returned from battle he definatly was suffering post traumatic stress.

Maria sighed. She moved so that she was sitting behind him, his back still on the matrice, but his head against her stomach. She wrapped her arms around his chest, resting her chin on his head.
"Don't dwell too long then..." Maria said quietly. "You have a present and a future now..." Maria murmured into his hair. She rubbed his shoulder and chest gently as she held him, keeping him tightly against her. A subtle reminder that she was still with him.

Alexi sighed letting her hold him. He nodded pressing his face into her. H shuddered occasionally beyond upset. He wondered what they would do they still had two weeks here and he didn't know if he could leave the hotel room. A strangled sob came from him he hurt emotinally
