I slowly open my eyes. I see a blurry Cece. She calls my name, but I can't exactly hear it. She tightens something around my chest. A bandage, I'm sure. I've lost a lot of blood. I shakily try to sit up. She grabs my chest and lays me back down.

"Stay down, please." She begs.

I nod. I turn my head. I see the others gathering up. But there's something in the distance. Scylla's lair. I see her caves. She's in there. At least we made it but I'm in pretty bad shape. Cece lets out a breath. Why am I so cold.

It's not the end child.

How am I supposed to go on?

You're not alone in this fight.

Clearly you don't remember what happened last time I fought Scylla.

(Song from Epic the Musical)

Deep down, deep down, you hide a reason for shame, I hear her voice. 

Zeus's voice fades. Cece uses more magic on me. I turn my head. I see a figure looking in the distance. I see a black cloaked figure on top of the other figure. I see a sword. I'm sure that's the Sword of Kronos.

Deep down, deep down, you know that we are the same, you and I.
