[ WP ] And now ... We dance .

Cyriac wiped the blood dripping off his chin, smiling sardonically while he tried to shake off the dizziness from Stephen's left hook. He stood between Abe and Stephen protectively. 
 
 `` I always knew it would come down to this. You are too much of a coward to attack when he's awake.'' Cyri growled, pulling out his old hunting knife. It hardly seemed adequate against Stephen, who was over a foot taller and 60 lbs heavier. 
 
 He dared to glance back at his older brother Abe lying still on the ground next to a terrified Rebecca. Abe was still breathing despite the head wound, which meant there was hope. 
 
 Stephen was by far the strongest guy in the group, but his night-time attack on Abe was clumsy. Cyri had managed to tackle him and knock his machete over the nearby cliff. 
 
 `` You're done Cyri; you and Abe. I'm taking over and taking what I deserve.'' Stephen said, glancing greedily at Rebecca. 
 
 *Wake up bro... I do n't think I can take him alone. * 
 
 `` You talk too much, dumb-fuck.'' Cyri motioned for Rebecca to run. She bolted, dragging the kids into the pitch black night with a silent sob. 
 
 Stephen bellowed and charged Cyri like a maddened bull, his huge muscles heaving with the effort. 
 
 `` And now... we dance'' Cyri whispered. He rolled quickly to the right, hunting knife glittering in the light from the dying campfire.
