24^th August 79 AD  - Flavia Theodora by Kayla

It was very hustle and bustly this morning. I was to wear my best robes and jewellery. I felt a shiver under me. I am to go to the best banquet.

"Iris get my best robes NOW." I will try on all my jewellery till I find the right piece to wear.

"Get my sandals Iris! I want to be the most beautiful woman at the banquet, that Lavina Claudia will definitely try to outdo me. Iris do my hair and where are my sandals? Ok I want my hair in a bun with a curl beside my left eye and both cheeks. We shall walk to the banquet, as Sandy’s ankle is broken. Iris what’s that rumble?"

"Ah I think it’s the mountain Miss!"

"Oh my goodness the gods have gone crazy! What’s happening, why is there fire coming out of the mountain Iris? I’m going to take a ride in this man’s boat. Mr get me away from here NOW!"

"No Ma’am the seas are too rough!"

"You can have all my jewels and money my husband will pay you! Hey where is my husband. Give me those oars I’ll get out of here myself! I’m in, Oh no a wave’s coming what do I do? Oh no my hair my robes my curls I’ll just get out of the water and onto the beach. I’ll lay down I know I’m going to die this is the end of every thing I’m going to die all of us are."
