My life has been torn apart, then stuck together roughly and then I was burnt alive with chocolate...

Hmm...not even that explains what's happened to me...
(FYI, That's not how I look... it's just a photo on pinterest.)

Chuck POV.-

As Melody and Alex stepped into the cave entrance, I wondered if we were being wise or extremely stupid... The chanced were both.

The cyclops spotted them almost immediately after Alex foolishly stepped on a rock. At least a half dozen of the four-eyed creatures turned to spot what had made the disturbance.

Melody waved sheepishly and took a step back towards the exit of the cave.

"What are you doing here?" Asked the one with the toga that was once white, but now speckled with mud. "You smell amazing... I suppose you came to give us the pleasure of eating you alive? Just like those other ones..."

"Orange shirt taste yummy," a second agreed.

"Idiot!" The one beside him slapped his head. "Focus on the meal!"

A cyclops, who clearly was the leader, quietened them down. He was taller than the rest and radiated an aura of power and leadership.

"Brad! Kol! Shut up you fools! Have you come here to take the red Karsyn? If so, get out immediately before we eat you! If not, get out anyways. We are busy."

"Wait! You said you were busy? What happened? Is there something planned?" Melody demmanded. "Is cake involved?"

The older cyclops seemed annoyed by that question.

"We have been given a job by the great sire," One of the younger ones replied eagerly. "But sadly, there is no cake..."

"THAT'S IT, BOYS!" The Older Cyclops thundered. "No lunch for you blockheads!"

They opened their mouth to argue but stopped noticing the glare on leading eye (older cyclops). He turned to them, "You are very annoying... As you wish! You will die and then, we will eat you just like that satyr."

I panicked. Satyr. Me. Satyr. Eaten alive. Satyr. "Bleh. Bleh."

Lexxy put a hand on my shoulders. She nodded. It was a gesture. What was I supposed to do? She had told me something...

I took a deep breath. We were supposed to sneak in. I stood up and climbed the tallest rock. A rock that allowed me to stay hidden and not be discovered by the Cyclops. As soon as I reached the top, I looked around.

I spotted it almost immediately. Thirty feet ahead was a glass bottle the size of my palm. Inside it was a very tiny and reddish ball. I understood why they called it the 'red' Karsyn. 

It was darker than the red of the blood, darker than that of the darkest red but it was red. No... it was bright red. It changed colours and it was impossible to depict it's exact colour.

I climbed down.

"Did you find it?" Morgan asked, even though her attention was not towards us. She kept looking at Morgan and Alex being interrogated by the Cyclops. Not exactly interrogated. They looked like two old friends meeting after a very long time.

I nodded and pointed towards the direction.

The older cyclops was standing closest to it with two more in the other side.

"So guys," Lexxy said. "We have two options. One, go get it slowly and escape. Two, kill the Cyclops and then get it safely. What do you think?"

"When does everything ever go according to plan? Let's just split up and-"

"No!" I interrupted Morgan. "Look, we can't split up further. We are already away from the other two."

"It won't work if we don't split up!" Lexxy argued. "Morgan can take them from above and I will take the ones towards the other side. Chuck, you go and get the red karsyn."

"Works for me," Morgan agreed.

I hesitated for a while but I finally agreed. "Let's do it."

Morgan POV.-

The plan was simple and there was a tiny chance that it would work. A 1% chance.

I got into my advanced suit and flew up. It caught a Cyclops attention who simply thought of it as a 'trick of the light'.

As I saw a Cyclops fall down, I hit the one in front of Melody and Alex with a beam of celestial heat. "RUN!"

The big cyclops nearest to the red karsyn burst, I prepared myself to hit the one who was Kol. Suddenly, I felt myself fell down.

"YOU DARE KILL MY BROTHER! ONLY I KILL HIM!!!" Brad shouted.

"Well, should have killed him earlier then," A female voice spoke as it burst into gold dust. "Melody Parker," I sighed in relief.

We both sat down, tired. "That," Mel said. "Was amazing!"

Chuck ran towards us, "You guys okay?"

"Yes."

"Yeah."

"I got it," He told us. "Come on. Alex is getting Lexxy. Let's go!"

"Lovebirds," I sighed and we got up laughing.
