"Been a while old friend." She drops something on our boat. 

I look down. It's the sword. It's my sword I used to slash her after my men were eaten.

"Deep down, were only demons from Hell." She says.

I look down.

"Where are my nymphs?" Cece stands up.

She points with one of her eel heads. I see the nymphs. They had bruises and scars but looked mostly in one peace. Why didn't Scylla just eat them? She could've had every opportunity. I stand up. 

"You and I were never friends." I say.

"But we are the same you and I." Scylla calls.

I look down.

"I'm not that man anymore." I say.

"I find that hard to believe." The cloaked figure jumps down onto Scylla's shoulder.

He was holding the sword. The same jagged sword I used. The same sword I used to...

"You have the Sword of Kronos, how?" I ask.

"You can't expect me not to claim it after you did." He says.

"Who are you?" I ask.

"Come on, that hurts. I thought we were brothers." He says.

My eyes widen.

"I see a brother's final stand." He calls.

"Eurylochus." I say.

He removes his hood. He's still the same.

"Been a while Neo or should I say Hector?" He raises an eyebrow.

"I'm sorry what is going on?" Rapunzel asks.

"Blondie, let's not get involved." Eugene says.

"Will you two shut up!" Eurylochus turns.

An eel slams down.

"I see... you were behind all of this. It's you who is controlling Scylla." I say.

"You're still sharp as ever." He says.

"Why have you done all this?" I ask.
