Being a theif of the bronze age

Maximus was running through the streets of the new city, looking at buildings that as a child were not there. As he past by buildings he could see his reflection, on the bright metal {copper} that was reflecting the sun's rays directly at his face. He was a shamed of him self, he was not the kind of man that would ever steel something, but he had no choice he had to traid  something of the cities leader jewelry {something very little which the leader would even notice missing.} This task for him was not to hard since he was the leaders right hand as they say. As he was picking out the item to steal one of the gaurds walked in by mistake looking for the leader to deliver him some news. For a short moment Maximus froze frightened. Sweat coming down his eyelids and on to the wooden floor. Maximus was thinking of how high the building was and remembered that he was only on the second floor, high enough for a kid to break its legs but not as high for an adult. So Maximus took one deep breath and with all his courage ran to to window and leaped out. As he touched the ground with his feet he immediately made a roll thus making him not injure his feet. He stood up scared for his life. As he started running that's when he realized that he was still holding some piece of jewelry. This was no small jewelry, this was the tooth of an lion which the leader killed himself along with his father and grandfather and a couple of other people which were at that time tribe members. Maximus finally found a place to hide, it was under a arch bridge. As he stayed hidden catching his breath, he heard the loud footsteps of the soldiers. All of a sudden one of them stopped approaching closer to the hiding place of Maximus, but then he went away catching up to the other soldiers. Maximus knew that there weren't many soildes maybe only ten to fifteen. They were there simply to keep the city the way it was. Maximus had to reach his home, but somehow also had to keep in the shadows away from the light. When he finally reached home he explain everything to his wife, and she was devastated. She couldn't believe that the man she married would do something like that, just then he realized what he would have done if everything would have gone the way it was supposed to and if the guard hadn't come into that room. The next place he would visit would be the holly place. A narrow long building where only a few people could come in sit down and pray to the mighty god. As Maximus said everything he had to and prayed for forgiveness. He also knew what he had to do second! After a couple of days past he waited for the right moment to sneak back to the leaders house when he came through the rear way he grab out the note he had written some symbols and held it in his hands he approached the kings room and left the tooth and the letter. As he was leaving the building a couple of guards spotted him and took him to the leader. The leader not knowing that he returned the items arranged that after the sun falls he'll be hanged. when the leader returned home he saw the stolen items back. He was about to come back and cancel of the hanging and make him face a  punishment that wasn't as cruel, but was informed that Maximus had escape and wasn't in his home neither was his wife. To be honest the leader was kind of clad that he escaped. Maximus and Suverina were already half way from another city walking in the dry land for days. Later on in the years past they got a daughter and secretly the leader from the other city which they came from send the man to protect them with his live.

The End..?
