He slams his hand down on the ground. I slash it with my sword. He gets up. He shakes the cave. I get thrown into a wall. I hiss through the pain. He charges at Proteus. I grab his hand and I slash his foot. He draws back. Proteus looks up at it.
"You two are just acting like flees." Polyphemus says.
"I've been called worse." I shrug.
He slams his hand down. I push Proteus out of the way. I slam my knife into his hand. It nails it to the ground. Polyphemus screams. He slams me back with his other hand. I slam into the wall. Ow. Proteus catches me.
"Are you alright?" He asks me.
"Fine." I mutter.
"You're good boy." Polyphemus eye draws to me.
"Thanks for the compliment." I dust myself off.
He tries to rise but the knife is too far deep. I grip my sword.
"I got an idea. Keep him distracted." I whisper to Proteus.
"How?" Proteus whispers back.
"Figure something out." I whisper back.
"Gentlemen, what are you two whispering about if I might ask?" Polyphemus asks.
"How does a cyclops find his way into the biggest city?" Proteus steps foward.
