I am a thirteen year old boy that belongs to a very noble but very nice family. Throughout the years our last name has been very famous because we have a lot of good knights in our family. My uncle is now the head of the family and he is becoming old. The pope has sent a message to us so that one of our men at home can serve. I am the only man in the house beside my uncle and they are expecting us to send a man to fight. Since my uncle is old I am the one who has to go! 
         I am who has to go, why me?? I don't feel ready yet. If I refuse to go, I will only be a disgrace to my family. That would surely end our good reputation. If I go though, I can be killed or badly injured. The good thing though would be that I would bring more honor to my family. Then again I have no other choice ,but to go. Maybe it will not be so bad after all. Maybe it will be quick and we will have victory. If I kill a few people than I will also become a great knight. That would also risk me getting hurt or dieing right there. That can't be helped, oh well. I will have to go!
