"What do you want Eurylochus?" I ask.

"Is it not obvious Neo?" He jumps down.

He lands on the boat. 

"I want you dead. I want you to pay for those 500 men and more." He says.

"That was not my fault." I say.

"It was your idea to blind the cyclopes. It was your idea to sacrifice men to Scylla." He points out.

I look down. He's right. I caused a lot of shit. He grabs me by the neck. Cece's eyes glow yellow.

"Ahah." He holds a knife to my throat.

"What do you want with me now?" I grab his hand.

"Jeez, I just want to talk to you privately." He transforms into smoke with me.

"Hello." Scylla licks her lips.

"Where did you take him?!" I yell.

"Rapunzel, you saw as well as I did. It was Eurylochus who took him." Scylla says.

"Why are you destroying Corona?!" I yell.

"It was never my intent but..." Scylla looks down.

An eel head whines. I put my hand on it.

"He's using you, isn't he?" I ask.

She nods.

"You're afraid." I say.

"How can a giant see monster like you be afraid?" Eugene asks.

An eel head points. My eyes widen. It's something in a crown of rocks. Something shiny. 

"It's an egg. It's your egg." I look at her.
