Remember Them

Song: Remember Them by Jorge Rivera-Herrans from his album; Epic: The Cyclops Saga

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Captain

Halilintar looks down, gripping his blades tightly

Captain

Tears filling up in his eyes, full of regret and sorrow

CAPTAIN!

Halilintar finally looks up, and sees Solar holding his shoulder tightly. Halilintar whispered,

We must move quickly... we don't have much time...

He looked Solar directly in the eyes and said,

He didn't notice I mixed lotus in his wine

Solar did not move, but had a very worried look. Halilintar warned,

Mark my words now... this is not the end

While Halilintar walks towards a fallen body. Solar asked,

But captain, what do we do with our fallen friends?

Halilintar crouched down beside the body. And he whispered,

Remember them... when the fire begins to fade... for the fallen and afraid

He gripped his sword tightly as he stood up.

We are not to let them, die in vain

Halilintar now addresses the rest of the crew and yells,

Remember them! We're the ones who carry on! The flames of those who've gone. And our comrades will not die in vain!

He gestures to the massive club of the Cyclop beside him,

I need all our hands on his club. This is how we're getting outta here

He drew out his sword and yelled,

Use your sword to sharpen the stub, and turn it into a giant spear!

They all responded,

Let's kill him!

Solar asked,

His body is blocking the path, if we kill him we'll be stuck inside. Captain where do we attack him?

Halilintar yelled,

We gotta stab him in the eye!

Everyone drew out their weapons and yelled,

Let's do it!

Remember them.. when the fire begins to fade

For the fallen and afraid, we are not to let them die in vain

Halilintar closed the eyes of the dead-body of Beliung, his face full of guilt. But he joined in on the singing,

Remember them!

We're the ones who carry on, the flames of those have gone

And our comrades will not die in vain

The spear was ready, there was only one thing left to do.

NOW!

They stabbed the Polyphemus' eye, waking him up efficiently. Everyone began to run around as Polyphemus attempted to capture them blindy.

Scatter!

Polyphemus roared in pain and anger as every soldier ran, avoiding Polyphemus. This continued till a deep voice echoed through the cave.

Who hurts you?

Blaze's eyes widened as he whispered,

There are more of them?

Eyes can be seen from deep inside the cave as they asked again,

Who hurts you?

Halilintar immediately took control of the dangerous situation and whispered to them,

Hide!

They all obliged. However, the Cyclops continued to question Polyphemus,

Who hurts you?

Solar, feeling absolutely terrified and devastated, suggested to Halilintar,

Captain, we should run

But Halilintar didn't budge

Wait

The Cyclops repeated,

Who hurts you?

Solar begged this time to Halilintar, voice filled with fear,

Captain please

But Halilintar persisted,

Wait...

Polyphemus finally answered them,

It was nobody... nobody...

Everyone's jaw dropped, so shocked on his response. While Halilintar & Solar held back a grin.

If nobody hurts you be SILENT!

Don't go!

Their hearts tightened when Polyphemus said those words. They themselves wished that they never went away... Halilintar drew himself up together and ordered them,

Let's grab the sheep and away we go

They nodded as they started to use their powers to gather as much sheep as possible. As they ran out of the cave, Halilintar felt like he got pulled back and into a void of nothingness. He turned around and saw his mentor... Satriantar

Have you forgotten the lessons I've taught you? He's still a threat until he's dead! Finish it.

But Halilintar, mind foggy, looked down, rethinking his decisions. Should he listen to his mentor? His answer defied her & her teachings,

No

Satriantar was a little shocked, but more disappointed,

No?

Halilintar looked at her with a glare, straight in the eye,

What good would killing do? When mercy is a skill we could learn to use.

His anger grew bigger and all his bottled stressed started to resurface,

My friend is dead! Our foe is blind! The blood we shed it never dries! Is this what it means to be a warrior of the mind?

Satriantar looked at him sternly, 

Don't-!

Halilintar snapped out of the time-pocket and back in reality,

Hey cyclops! 

All attention drew to him now,

When we met I lead with peace, while you fed your inner beast.

But my comrades will not die in vain!

At the mention of 'comrades' the brothers felt a heavy heart, remembering their fallen blood. While the others looked confused and concerned. Halilintar wasn't done yet though,

Remember them! The next time that you dare choose not to spare, remember them, remember us...

His eyes grew dark as he spoke,

Remember me! I'm the reigning King of Ithaca!

I am neither men nor mythical. I... am your darkest moment

I am the infamous...

ODYSSEUS!

The ship started to sail farther away from the island, with all the crew & sheep on it. Meanwhile, the cyclop had a psychopath grin.
