Cyclops
The announcer’s booming voice, rang out through the colloseum, cutting through the crowd’s cheering as their chatter began to quiet down to listen. After a moment of talking, his thick accented voice began to announce your match, finally revealing to you the the type of creature you had to go up against. Knowing you were up next only made your excitement build up even more, yearning to make your teacher proud as he watched from the sidelines.
You had felt confident that you could take whatever could have been thrown at you, as you were supplied by Hades himself, the best possible teacher you could have worked with.
“And now we bring out the equine and the Cyclops! Now that’s a sight anyone would wanna see!” The booming sound of the crowd cheering started once again as the doors began to slowly rise, illuminating the dark hallway you stood by, in preparation for your battle. You braced yourself, running through the threshold as you clutched your gear.
You looked directly forward at your opponent, meeting eyes with a creature several feet taller than yourself. A smirk grew across your face, as you faced the hideous deep green beast, a single eye adorned his thin head, jagged teeth jutted grossy out of his thick lips, which dripped rivulets of salivation.
was rushing at full speed towards you, and with a calm focus you grip the handle of your sword. With all your might, you strike with your sword, hard and true. What do you do?
