The Curse of Icarus.

~Chapter 5 ~ an ode...to sweet glory is that a cyclops!~

We stop at a shopping mall and walk till we find some decent clothes, after we're changed and got into a cab I asked the question that had been plaguing my mind. "So what is this summer camp?" He looked at me then the cab driver and nodded to me like he was saying 'not now' I looked at him then at the cab driver, I couldn't see anything wrong. But then again my friend of 6 years was a hellhound, so I couldn't say much.  I sat in silence unsure of what to do, there was an elephant in the room and I sure as heck was not going to address it, we sat in silence for a few more minutes before we came to a stop.  The man looked at me through the rear mirror  and I thought for a moment he had one eye, I looked away quickly and signed 'Jack only he has 1 eye' in sign language it seems a little messed up but if you know what your signing then it makes a little more sense, he looked at me then the driver, he pulls out a small dagger

The dagger looks to be made out of gold, the handle has a single piece of amethyst, in the center of the handle as he draws the dagger out, the cab driver swerves and Jacks dagger scraps my leg, i let out a yelp as the cab driver speeds down several more roads and then stops. and turns around and looks at me his once normal face has turned into a one eyed creature his once normal skin, had turned into a sickly pale, with very noticeable veins popping from his neck.

Before I could react and scream, I was pulled out by Jack, i stumbled a bit before i composed myself and continued running "well I was not expecting that"  I exclaim my breathing becoming uneven as we continue running, "Yeah" Jack paused trying to even his breathing "neither was I" Jack was faster then me and he had a lot of stamina... Me on the other hand ... I was going to die, I was never really that fit, i was always the slow one when we would run in P.E. and I also had asthma so that didn't help.

I made the mistake of looking behind me, I know in the movies they always look behind them and they always trip and fall, well I can prove that that really does happen, because I ended up tripping over a blind old lady "i'm so sorry i wasn't looking where I was going" I looked up into he old woman's glasses,  And saw the reflection of the Cyclops behind me, I turned around and put a protective  arm around the old woman holding her behind me. My first thought, and quite possibly my last , was "if anything, I really wish I could have at least said goodbye to my mom". All the sudden Jack comes through with his sword, and turns the cyclops into gold dust, he looks up at me his bandage on his nose coming loose. "Oh dear this is going to be a long day"
