Later Menelaus brought the Greeks to Troy for revenge after the stealing of Helena. They arrived the wall of Troy and met Hector, Paris and the whole Trojan army. Menelaus and Paris talked about Helena and decided to have a duel about her; the one who won got Helena. They fought and Paris was defeated and cut in his leg. Right after, Hector took a sword out and killed Menelaus. The Greeks attacked the Trojan army but didn’t success and was forced to fall back.
The Trojans made a surprise attack at that night as they thought that the Greeks were almost defeated. Achilles, brought the Myrmidons and battled against the Trojans. Hector killed Achilles and everybody was shocked. Hector went down to his knees and took Achilles helmet off, surprised to see Patroclus under the helmet. Patroclus had wore Achilles war gear and gone to battle.
The real Achilles who had slept through the whole battle, was told by Eudorus that Hector had killed Patroclus. Achilles furiously wanted revenge. Next morning he rode a horse to the wall of Troy all by himself to get his revenge on Hector. He arrived and screamed
“HECTOR!”
There was a long echo and Hector who was sitting on top of the wall heard it, understood that Achilles wanted revenge for what he did to Patroclus and got ready for battle.
“HECTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR!” Achilles screamed again.
After two more screams the doors of the great wall opened, and out came Hector. They had a duel and after a intensive battle, Achilles killed Hector. That night King Priam came down to the beach of Troy to ask for his son’s body. Achilles agreed and gave him Hector’s body and twelve days for Hector’s funeral, until they attack Troy. At the same time Achilles also gave Briseis back. He gives Eudorus a last order, to take the Myrmidons home.
Under the twelve days the Greeks built a giant hollow wooden horse on the beach and climbed into it. They hid they’re ships in a nearby place.
After the twelve days King Priam and a few Trojan men went to the beach to see if the Greeks were still there. They saw the giant horse and thought it was a gift from Poseidon, and assumed that they had a victory over the Greeks.
They brought the Giant wooden horse into Troy and celebrated victory over the Greeks. At that night, the Greeks hiding in it jumped out of the wooden horse and invaded Troy. They ran around killing all of the Trojans they saw and burned everything.
While Troy was being destroyed Paris saw Aeneas with Andromache, Helen and many others, escaping Troy through a secret passage. He gave Aeneas the sword of Troy and said
“As long as it remains in the hands of a Trojan, our people have a future. Protect them Aeneas, find them a new home.”
Achilles screamed and searched desperately for Briseis, who was being threatened by Agamemnon. She killed him with a knife, and his guards grabbed her, beating her. Achilles came, killed the guards and helped her up. Right then Achilles was shot by an arrow in his heel by Paris. Achilles rose to his feet and walked towards Paris who shot him a few times in the chest. The arrows shot in the chest were pulled out by Achilles. Achilles fell to his knees and slowly fell to the side and died. The next day the Greeks had a funeral for Achilles in the ruins of Troy.
At last Odysseus said
“If they ever tell my story, let them say I walked with giants. Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die. Let them say I lived in the time of Hector, tamer of horses. Let them say I lived in the time of Achilles.”
The end.
