03x04 - Decimation

[bunniefuu]

( SCREAMING )

He was reaching for the food,
you mad c**t!

Attius stands with us.

( WHISPERS ) He stands a f*cking Roman.

Crassus denies me sharpened blade.

Under what purpose?

Personal matter.

Brigands of Cilicia.

Pirates?

The Aedile and I had an arrangement.

I will not beg for my life.

Do this thing...

And you will be released.

Your man make fight gone.

Ulpianus?

( SCREAMING )

Tell me where they are.

I don't know who you speak of.

( SCREAMING )

Tell your men to advance.

Your father gave strict order not...

My father desires a wolf of battle.

Advance!

( YELLING )

( RUMBLING )

Stand ground, stand your f*cking ground!

That should do it.

Here then, you c**t!

( CHATTERING )

( LAUGHTER )

There stands greater worry

than grain carried to port
by Cilician shits.

What would you have us feast upon?

Promise of better days?

I would see bellies filled
with the death of Romans.

Crassus is certain
to dispatch more soldiers.

And we should be preparing
to greet them.

We are.

By ensuring our own
do not go into battle

weakened by hunger.

Full sails, we here for the night.

Heracleo.

How fares recent venture?

If you are of a thirst,
the gods have shown favor.

You carry no grain?

A clutch of amphoras so filled
were liberated from Roman ship.

Yet its captain held more stock
in drink than seed of bread.

Wine will not feed my people.

The Romans have stored
most of their harvest

against encroaching chill.

Difficulty rises
in securing such bounty.

As does its price?

Yeah.

Ah!
( SHATTERING )

( YELLING OVER EACH OTHER )

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Move back!

Whoa, hold and fall to reason!

See each to a handful,
and clear them from the docks.

Spartacus.

More slaves taken afoot approach gate.

( SEAGULLS SQUAWKING )

Will you see them to a handful as well?

( CHATTERING )

Do you know of my sister?

I haven't laid eyes since the city fell.

We should not be wasting
what little food we have

on f*cking Romans.

You know my mind upon subject.

I stand with Crixus towards it.

I have given Laeta my word.

It will not be broken.

♪
( YELLING )

Let me in, please!

If you hold w*apon you must
give over before entering city!

f*ck!

w*apon?

Just this.

( LAUGHS )

Merci.

It seems a lifetime past,
that I stood as him.

( LAUGHS )

Show brand, and see what you...

Show brand or mark,

to prove you stand former sl*ve
and no friend of the Republic!

We have nowhere to go!

Show me your brand.
Show brand.

( GIGGLES )

The most fearsome weapons yet exposed.

( LAUGHING )

I would take no offense
to closer inspection...

Next.

( LAUGHING )

( SIGHING )

( LAUGHTER )

Show me your brand, show me your brand.

We need a place to sleep!

Open bag!

Put mind at ease, brother.

You'll have no need of this here.

Spartacus does not favor
his people holding coin.

Spartacus!

This one carries knowledge
of Crassus' army.

I say about a half
day's march from our wharves.

How great a force?

Larger than f*cking city by her word.

Yet he has made camp and holds advance.

Why stay hand when
it grips such numbers?

He but grips his own f*cking cock

if he believes we will...

Run!
f*cking Romans!

The Romans!

( SCREAMING )

Seal the gate!

( RUMBLING )

Give f*cking way!

( GRUNTING )

f*cking shits drew upon
us when pressed to show brand.

Gratitude for assistance.

There is no greater glory...

Than the death of your enemy.

I would lay eyes upon your brand friend.

Well, that presents some difficulties.

More so if you are absent one.

My dominus branded all his slaves

close to cock and c**t,

equally enjoyed upon drunken nights.

With that Kn*fe I rid myself
of him and his f*cking mark...

Fall to cover and join the others.

Sever their heads and set them
to pike upon wall,

as warning against future attempt.

Crixus, Gannicus, Agron...

I would have much needed words.

( HORSES WHINNYING )

( HEAVY BREATHING )

( CHATTERING )

It seizes heart,
to know you in such pain.

A deeper wound stands
removed from sight.

He has not come to your side?

I recall my father's grim visage

when first you delivered
me to encampment.

I have not since laid eyes upon it.

Place no worries in the absence.

The Imperator's mind

is taken with thoughts

of coming battle

against Spartacus.

We move to reclaim the city?

I have received no order
to break encampment.

Though a large number of men
have been dispatched north.

North?

Towards what purpose?

( LAUGHS )

I do not hold your father's
confidence in such matters.

We stand as one in such regard.

What of Caesar?

Does he circle fading corpse,

eager to strip flesh of title
as word and will of my father?

He no longer stands among us.

Caesar has fallen?

He but follows command.

♪

Leave us.

You have given Caesar mission?

One always intended.

He secrets himself among the rebels,

to hasten their fall.

The reason you ordered
he remain unshorn.

To assume guise of errant sl*ve.

One must appear as wolf
to be welcomed by the pack.

A plan well considered.

I will stand by your side
when it bears deadly fruit.

That day has not yet arrived.

( SWALLOWING )

Rest, allow wound to properly heal.

Uh, I am your word
and your will, Father.

A position not commanded from upon back.

See yourself to uniform.

And let us break words
towards your men's punishment,

for foolish attempt against Spartacus.

( CLANGING )

Mystery of Crassus holding
advance falls to discovery.

The f*cking cock on him.

Believing a few men could end rebellion.

Crassus does not move
as the others we have faced.

He adopts our strategies,

in effort to twist them against us.

We should heed caution,

and see the gates remain closed.

I will not deny entry

to those who have risked life to
break from their masters.

A thing born late in any regard.

Many unknown to us

have already passed through gate

to join cause, if outward form

does not conceal darker intent.

If there stand such among our ranks,

we must see them exposed.

You scale a mountain of ifs.

I would add to its peak.

If you are struck down
by one of your errant flock,

how would they fare absent guidance?

Crixus would see them upon proper path.

With aid of wise council,

gathered at this table.

I pray to the gods

that is a day I never
see come to pass, brother.

Yet if I held sole command,

I would move swiftly against Crassus.

On this we share thought.

We are men of blood and battle.

And the streets grow
restless with idle purpose.

We must stay course agreed upon.

We hold advantage of city walls;

Crassus' legions
will suffer on open plains,

while we train swelling numbers

to see weakened foe to the afterlife.

Would that Attius was still alive,

to forge more weapons.

You would see traitor live,

and Naevia with brains
upon f*cking sand?

Let Attius stand as promised fate

for all who would see Roman
slaves from shackle.

Fix mind upon the present,

gauge prowess of those newly among us.

Escaped Romans yet to be found,

Crassus upon our gate,

and you would have
me play f*cking doctore?

I would have you observe
with watchful eye.

Any that measure beyond expectation

may reveal themselves
more than they appear.

Join brother, and see it done.

A lifetime ago the words "f*cking Gauls"

would spring from mouth.

If it did fall to Crixus to...

You are yet among the living,

and I would see it remain so.

Until thr*at is known,

I will be as f*cking shadow.

( CHUCKLING )

Then darken heel,

and let us move to better
know mind of our enemy.

( YELLING )
( CLANGING )

If I stood Roman,

my sword would have your
life in favor of ass.

Again!

If that man proves assassin,

then I am Jupiter's f*cking cock.

Hmm.

No skill.

Small cock.

Step forward.

I have witnessed your skill with
Kn*fe upon the unsuspecting.

Let us see how you fare with sword

against more discerning eye.

( CLANGING )

( YELLING, GRUNTING )

( LAUGHING )

We waste f*cking effort.

If there is a Roman among them,

would they not feign ignorance

of the ways of fighting men?

An animal cannot hide truer nature.

When pressed to corner,

it will expose teeth and snap jaw.

( CLANGING )
( YELLING )

( LAUGHTER )

You are no stranger
to the clash of steel.

All shepherds are versed in sound.

Many seek to claim
another master's stock

upon hill and plain.

( CLANGING )
( GRUNTING )

( YELLING, LAUGHING )

And what did your dominus
call his defender of goat,

before he slipped from grasp?

Lyciscus.

A name forced upon me.

One I desire quickly shed.

( CLANGING )
( GRUNTING )

( YELLING )

( HEAVY BREATHING )

I shall have rematch, upon a day.

( LAUGHTER )

You.

( WATER DRIPPING )

They take interest in you.

( GRUNTING )
( LAUGHING )

( SWORDS CLANGING )

Do they take it in you as well?

And with coin I saw you relieving those

seeking refuge within your walls?

Break such words again,

and I shall relieve you of something

far more valuable.

Ah, you mistake intent, brother.

I mention deed only
towards thoughts of my own.

A city such as this holds
great opportunity,

for those brave enough to seize it.

( LAUGHING )

Let us place training aside
for the moment.

And discuss matter in...

...far more hospitable clime.

( UNLOCKING )

She turns from offer of villa

for straw and the smell of sh*t?

For reason fallen upon
understanding ear.

The mind of a woman.

A foreign thing.

I would have words alone,
and see it deciphered.

She holds no thr*at.

I shall place myself at entrance.

With sword clutched in f*cking hand.

Did not think the Slayer
of the Shadow of Death

had need of protector.

Unfortunate precaution,
in wake of morning's events.

Word carries of the att*ck.

Does it also carry word
of Marcus Crassus,

the man who commanded it?

Crassus...

You are pleased with the man

Rome has sent to k*ll me.

Crassus stands as no other
in certainty of intent.

He will not stop short of your end.

He is not the first Roman

to believe himself capable of the act.

Those that came before
him did not hold wealth

to turn Juno Moneta envious.

Coin holds little worth
upon the field of battle.

What of a mind keen enough to amass it?

Upon our first meeting you spoke
of dealings with Crassus.

I would know of anything
ear may have caught.

Such knowledge will not reverse sun,

nor alter the course of river's fate.

Then there stands
no reason to deny request.

Our business with Crassus

concerned only grain
and shipment, nothing more.

Yet my husband imparted story,

shared by Aedile of Neapolis
towards future dealings.

The man was thick
in negotiations with Crassus

when he intercepted message
from reviled competitor,

offering more favorable
terms to Crassus.

While seeing both profit

and valuable client soon to vanish,

the Aedile b*rned errant message,

swiftly agreed to Crassus' demands.

Only to discover months later

Crassus himself had sent the message,

intending for the Aedile
to lay hands upon it,

and move in direction desired.

I too intercepted message from Crassus.

And used what was gleaned

to clear path for him to assume command.

You have struck fear into
the very heart of the Republic.

Imagine the glory that awaits...

the man who defeats you.

Heracleo delivers less than expected.

Rations must be lowered by another half.

We will make due.

Until Crassus reclaims the city.

He does not stand the only
one capable of the unexpected.

Let us seek Heracleo,

and a future even the mighty
Crassus will not see coming.

Dispatch another thousand
men to aid Quinctius.

We must see progress hastened.

Imperator.

My word and my will.

You understand what that means?

Yes, Father.

Do you?

The first battle in my campaign
forever etched in history.

As a victory for Spartacus.

Father...
He was not to be engaged

until I arrived with proper force.

Was command not f*cking clear?!

It was.

Yet opportunity presented

when Spartacus moved beyond city walls.

I thought it greater
offense not to seize moment.

A decision I may have made myself.

When I was yet a boy.

Apologies for disobeying
your command, father.

A thing that could
be forgiven in light of youth.

Yet your men falling to retreat

does not so easily slip from concern.

I ordered them to stand ground.

Yet they fled.

Because they feared the enemy
more than their commanders.

A false assumption
we must see corrected.

What punishment would
you have me inflict?

One to stand warning.

That death at the hands of Spartacus

pales against the wrath
of the House of Crassus.

♪

Decimation?

Not since the days of Marius

has savage ritual been so commanded.

He would make example.

Of what befalls a man who turns heel

in face of enemy.

The fault is mine.

Had I obeyed your order
to stand ground...

Our men broke rank and fled.

You were left absent choice.

As my father now leaves me.

Fifty men.

Fifty stones.

Five stained with the promise of death.

Draw well and live.

Draw poorly...

You stayed at my side
while the others ran.

I am yet from this world because of you.

Place it from mind.

And pray I draw well.

You do not deserve to be placed
at risk among cowards.

I will talk to my father

and beg your removal from decimation.

The act would only
diminish you in his eyes.

A thing I would never allow.

You stand most honorable in his legions.

And this is f*cking reward!

Seek him upon deck of his ship.

The man has a well known preference

for sea and c**t,
spread equally before him.

Come, share cup, and we shall

We would not wallow in such low company.

You wish to f*ck the man,

I would sooner caress

in years past.

Choose words with care.

Walk with taste.

♪

You do not share opinion?

( SIPPING )

It would hold no f*cking matter.

I am but humble servant

to the will of our glorious leader.

I have heard rumor Spartacus
stands a god among his people.

I have imperiled life
for his cause many times.

At Vesuvius and Calor

and battles far too numerous
in the counting.

Even in the taking of this f*cking city.

Only to witness remainder of enemy

spared within its walls.

And coin honestly gained

stripped from hand to forge bargain

with the f*cking Cilicians.

But small wonder
you are forced to relieve

what you can from those
newly entering gate.

A fraction of what is owed to me.

That is all I carry.

Consider it yours, toward
our continued friendship.

Perhaps together we can see it grow.

Embrace what you have.

All can change in sudden moment.

There, you f*cking c**t!

( GROANING ) Brictius!

No hands are to be laid

snapping at robe as I passed.

I but entreated for word of my sister...

f*ck your sister!

Ah, Tiberius has given all to please me.

To become honored soldier.

Yet when eyes are greeted,

and let us see this city truly ours!

( CHEERING )

( SHUDDERING )

I will not do this.

You shall do as commanded.

As all soldiers must.

Let it be done!

Begin!

Your lesson well learned.

Imperator.

Each day brings new madness.

Next you will ask to join
in wresting moon

from f*cking heavens.

He sets purpose towards
more earthly goal.

Does it lie within possibility,

what I seek to do?

All dreams are possible...

it is but effort and cost that
keeps it from waking grasp.

See this last thing that
I ask of you to its end,

and I will fill your ship

with all the riches this city yet holds.

Let us see it done then, brother!

( LAUGHING )

Spartacus!

Crixus and the others have gone mad.

They're k*lling the Romans.

Keep watch over the Cilicians.

You seem to favor their f*cking company.

Move, quickly!
Come on, quick!

( HEAVY BREATHING ) Uh, sorry.

( GROANING ) Oh, you must keep moving.

We will not make it to the villa.

No, you will not.

These for Spartacus.

Take from f*cking path!

I do not see Gannicus among you.

Nor cause to heed his bitch!

( CLANGING )
( GRUNTING )

Ah!

I give cause.
( HEAVY BREATHING )

Bitch.

You will regain sense!

Or fall where you stand!

It is you who has lost sense.

And the Aedile's wife

who has seen you tumble from perch.

She is the one who helped
these Roman shits slip bond!

And smiled at you through f*cking lies!

A thing of truth.

Attius held no part in it.

Nor did he deserve the end that he met.

( GASPS )

This is return
for the mercy I grant you?

Mercy?

You robbed me of my husband.

Your people slaughtered
thousands within my city.

And I now stand condemned,

for trying to save
but a handful from such cruelty?

( SOBBING )

Learned at the hand of our Roman master.

Take her life, brother.

And in the act let us become
as one again.

A thing deserved.

Yet I will not see us become
the very thing we fight against.

There are many who question
your mind in this.

I question mind as well...

placing faith in you as a leader.

( YELLING )

See the Romans that yet live
gathered within my villa.

Make further attempt against my will...

follow those you have
struck down this night.

The man has helped us more than anyone.

Yet I now doubt path he travels.

Then perhaps the time has come,
to forge our own.
