“This is going to be bad...” I muttered to myself. “Judging by the sound of the footsteps, its probably going to be a Giant or a Titan...or something much horrible.”
The three of us stood close to each other, clenching our weapons with sweaty hands.
“What ever this is...it’s going to be BIG.” Taron said trembling.
“Yea, yea. And it’s all your fault!” I crossed my arms.
“Boom ! Boom ! Boom! ” The footsteps were getting louder and louder. The rocks were now shaking and craking into little pieces. It’s like a massive earthquake, and it looked like the sky was going to fall on us.
“It’s...hard...to..keep ourselves..balanced !” Caele said holding a big rock to prevent herself from falling down.
“I SMELL HUMAN !” A voice boomed.
“HUMAN FOR DINNER !”
The “Big monster” stopped in front of us. He was so tall that we could barely see his face.
“YUM YUM !” He licked his lips.
He bent down and looked at us with his sharp eyes.
I looked at the monster, properly. To my suprise , he only had one eye. And his yellow eyes were looking straight at us. We were like ants compared to him. Thinking of this made me shiver.
“What on Hades was that ?” Caele squeaked.
“Cyclops...” I muttered. “Well done, Taron. ”
“HELLO HUMANS ! NICE TO MEET YOU ! NOW I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!” Roared the Cyclops. His roar made my hair stand on end , his breath smells like dead fish, and his saliva was all over me. What a nice start.
“Come on, let’s fight this big guy !” I yelled at the ugly hairy Cyclops. Let’s just call him Mr.C , it sounded better to me.
Mr.C charged at us. He swung his axe trying to squish us flat. We had to think of a plan to kill him immediately. I looked at the lava pool in front of us, and i quickly got an idea.
I grabbed a rope from my handy backpack and handed it to Caele.
“Caele, Taron! Try to tie this rope on his leg. Taron, take left and Caele take right. Go !” I shouted and ran away.
“Where are you going ?!” Caele shouted.
“To distract the Cyclops!”
Caele and Taron held the rope on each side and got close to Mr.C .
“Hey ugly ! You can’t catch me !” I shouted at him and did a chicken dance. (Yep...i’m stupid.)
“YOU ! HUMAN !” Mr.C roared and chased after me. I ran and got closer to the lava pool, he swung his axe and i ducked just in time it hit my head. Taron was already tying one of his foot and he seemed not to notice it at all. “It’s working.” i thought.
Just as i wanted to run more further, i felt something pulling my hair. I turned and saw Mr.C pulling my hair, my legs dangling in the air.
“I CAN’T WAIT FOR DINNER !” He shouted. “YOU LOOK YUMMY. I AM GOING TO HAVE YOU NOW !” He laughed.
“Ahhhh !” I screamed. “Help !”
“Layla ! ” Taron and Caele screamed.
“Put her down !” Taron shouted. But Mr.C didn’t seemed to listen what he said.
The Cyclops held me up to his eye.
“Well, well ! A pretty young lady for a snack !” He laughed. His eye was...creepy, this was a nightmare.
“Think...” I told myself. I closed my eyes and tried to concentrate. I felt so helpless...
“Eat me if you want...” I sighed.
“I don’t taste good but you can eat me anyways.”
“REALLY ? ”said Mr.C excitedly.
“NOOOOOO ! ”Caele screamed.
“WHAT ARE YOU EVEN THINKING ! LAYLA !”
Then Mr.C opened his mouth. Caele and Taron watched in shock.
“You are such a big healthy Cyclops.” I teased.
“DON’T YOU WASTE MY TIME !” He roared. “I AM GOING TO EAT YOU !”
“I know...i know.” I muttered.
“BUT WHY DON’T YOU PICK ON SOMEONE YOUR OWN SIZE!” I shouted and i punch him in the eye, hard. Mr.C screamed and dropped me onto the floor, Taron caught me just in time i hit the ground.
The Cyclops covered his eye and roared in pain, he lost his balance and fell straight into the lava.
It all ended with a big “splash !” And the Cyclops was burned alive in the lava.
Caele and Taron quickly ran and gave me a big hug.
“Well...i don’t know that was going to work.” I said with a smile.
“You scared the Hermes out of me !” Caele said crying.
“It’s alright, i survived. ” I patted her shoulder.
“I’m...sorry...” Taron muttered.
“I don’t mean to do...”
“It’s okay. ” I smiled. “We did it together.”
