Phoebe positioned herself in front of Elizabeth. She wasn't a fighter, no. She would not charge into battle like the men. But she would guard over their younger companions. Her grip on her knife was so tight her knuckles were white and her body trembled of fear, not just for her, but for him.
"Anyone have a sword or something I can borrow? I don't think my bow will be of much use because of their tough skin!"
Ryker noticed Kaden charging at one of the cyclopeses, so he ran at the other. The cyclopes tried to grab him, but he slid under it's legs and stabbed it in its Achilles tendon. It roared and attempted to turn around to grab him.

(I nearly fell off my bed omg)
"I would prefer if you stay back here with me. Use your bow, aim for the eyes. Or his dick. Either way, it has to at least cause them some pain." Phoebe said, her voice shaking slightly.
“I can lend you mine.” Elizabeth said to Tealle, warily eyeing the cyclops, handing Tealle one of her swords.
Kaden learned very quickly that he absolutely hated Cyclopses. This thought occurred to him when he was suddenly thrown through a wall.
(If my writing gets…poetic or something, it's because I'm in writing/novel mode.)
Ryker looked at everyone still standing there as he waited for the cyclopes to turn around. He looked Phoebe in the eye and nodded, hoping she'd interpret that as him saying he's fine. He ducked as the cyclopes swung at him, the club barely missing him. He kept slashing and checked his pocket every so often for his pencil.
"Well, Pheobe, the thing is…" Tealle hesitated, °I kinda forgot it in our room…" she gripped the sword Elizabeth had given her awkwardly, making a mental note to practice sword fighting.
She sighed. "Just, don't get hurt, and please be careful." She said. She bounced on the balls of her feet, anxious. The nod from Ryker had done nothing to soothe her, especially not when a Cyclops almost mess up his pretty face.
Alex jumped out of the way as a cyclopes swung at her. she spun and swung her swords trying to cut off its arm
Elizabeth stood on the right of Tealle, watching the cyclops anxiously. She wasn’t sure if she should also place her left hand on the hilt of the sword.
Kaden shook off the rumble and stood with a scowl. He had various cuts on his body and his ribs were bruised, and one of them may be broken.
Alex saw Kaden in the rubble and stood in front of him "Will you be ok?"
Ryker slashed at the cyclopes' legs, but he couldn't get through the skin with his knife. He resorted to stabbing, which seemed to work better until his knife got stuck in the cyclopses knee. He swore and attempted to grab his knife, but it was hopeless. He had to think of another plan.
Phoebe concluded while watching the battle, that she wasn't quite in love with Ryker. It was too soon for love, and she didn't know him well enough. But she cared deeply for him. Cared enough, that when the Cyclops's club came down to crush him, or whatever else he would do, Phoebe was there, shoving him aside and letting herself get hit with it.

(^screech^ Okay sorry if I’m not typing much, I’m terrible at fighting scenes and I’m distracted with sketching so.
Also… @LeafyLemur, when is Tealle gonna cut Elizabeth? .-.)

(Omg, same. I have hard times writing details sometimes. I feel really awkward.)
"Phoebe!" Ryker yelled. He turned to the cyclopes and felt his pocket. He pulled out his pencil and immediately twirled it around, not waiting for it to change before charging. He got the cyclopes' attention and ran towards a window, hoping there'd be a balcony underneath. He quickly opened the window and jumped out, grabbing onto a window sill as he fell. The cyclopes followed suit and came crashing through the wall and falling to the cold hard street below.
Kaden went to his sister's side. "Let's do this together yeah?" He asked, dodging the fist of the second Cyclops.
"Yeah" Alex said as she scowled at the cyclopeses
Tealle slashed and closed her eyes by reflex. She felt the sword slice through flesh and opened her eyes joyfully, thinking she had hit the cyclops. To her horror, she instead saw Elizabeth with a nasty, jagged cut down her arm. Tealle dropped the sword and clasped her hands over her mouth.
