At the final battle- as the forces of Brutus and Cassius go against the triumvirate of Octavius, Antony and Lepidus- Brutus sees and opening in the flank of Octavius' army and attacks. Though Brutus strikes a great blow against their opposition, the attack was so early and leaves Cassius' forces enclosed by Antony's army. As his camp is set ablaze in the distance, and army approaches. Cassius sends Titinius to check to see if the army is Brutus' or not. Messala watches as Titinius rides off on the distance, and reports to Brutus what appears to be Titinius being ran down on horseback. A cheer is heard in the distance, which is taken by Cassius as a celebratory sound from Antony's army that they have killed Titinius. Out of grief of sending one of his closest friends to his death, and by the apparent doom of the situation, Cassius has Messala run him through with the same blade he used to kill Caesar, setting his bondman free with his death. *** p.s. It turns out Titinius didn't die, and that he was greeted with cheers by Brutus' army, but good ole' hasty Cassius had to go and kill himself honorably before he was captured... fool :) *** titinius did die, he killed himself because he saw the dead body of Cassius
