In her way back, Athena was able to see rows and rows of fierce demons, ready to destroy any trace of life, ready to follow any of her brother's commands. Mostly ready to do anything that would get them what they had wanted for centuries, freedom. She also reached to see some other figures that seemed Gods from the far, but she knew that no one would ever dare to oppose to the major God, or would they?

It didn't took long for Zeus to notice what was happening in his kingdom, the prays asking to stop monsters were too many, and the winds announced with their arrival an upcoming war, unluckily for the God, these didn't say which kind of war was to come. So the thunder God started to mobilize his troops, Hephaestus was asked to make new and better weapons for the Gods, Ares was given the job to search for heroes, and Hermes was sent to investigate the source of these revolts.

The Olympic army was prepared and shiny, they were only missing the heroes that Ares would bring and Apollo's archers. The troops were ready, the colossus were polished and oiled, the lightnings were at hand and the spirits were up. Zeus trusted that whatever attempt of rebellion would just be that, an attempt. He had his personal guard, who could not be other than his most trustworthy child, Athena.

Zikaos had just returned from the last task he needed to fulfill in order to emerge from the darkness of death into the last battle, he had gone to Etna volcanoe, where the last remaining piece of his army lied almost dead. Now it was all complete, a hundred years of hiding, a hundred years of waiting and preparation, and it would all summarize in less than a day. So finally, Hades opened the doors to the external world and the army walked throught the stairs until the upper world, guided by Hades, Ares and Apollo.

Zeus noticed the increasing crowd from his post, but when he saw it was lead by his sons and brother, he stopped the attack command. Then, as he and his perfect amry came down from the mount Olympus, Zeus asumed that Ares and Apollo had gone ahead and captured the threat. Then he made his first mistake, he approached them by himself, congratulating his children and his brother, when all of a sudden a creature from the crowd stepped up. He had the loks of a God, but his escence was more similar to those of ancient beings who used to wander the planet, Titans.

"Zeus, you have ruled for far too long now" was the first thing head in such a confusing scene. "Your rushed decisions and vices have taken this world to a decadent state, your time in this world has reached its end, and it is time for us to do something about it" Ended the strange being infront of the army.

Ofended, Zeus sent Ares to capture and murder the titan, but Ares just stood there. Then Zeus went to Apollo, who followed his brother's examplo. At last he asked Hades, who just answered with a shallow and diabolical laugh. Zeus had a second of confusion, and then he condamned the three Gods and the titan to a slow and painful death.

And so it began, at first the Gods were sweeping the monsters so fast the monsters had no chance, they crushed the fallen heroes and broke into pieces the celestial archers. But as they attacked more, the crowd just got bigger, more and more hell demons were coming from the Underworld. Soon the giants arrived to fight with the colossus, the harpies started attacking the beautiful and perfect faces of the Gods, and chaos started.

Ares and Apolo were fighint a death match with his father, who was overpowering them by far, it seemed they were about to die. Thunders, lighinigs and sparks few all over the field, the wrath of the skied was unleashed in the base of the Mount Olympus. Zikaos sent troops to corned the Gods into the mount. And while the rest of the Gods were defending themselves as they could, Athena was crushing one by one, every monster that got anywhere near her sight.

When Apollo was finally fallen, Ares seemed not to have a single chance angainst the supreme king of thuner. But it was then when Zikaos entered into the epic battle. He threw an ancient spear, forged by Atlas and other titians, so Zeus answered with a thunder. The tunder broke into a million pieces when it encountered the spear, Zeus couldn't believe it, he had been hurt with a simple spear by a being who was not even a God. But anyone should know that not even a spear in the chest could stop the God of Gods.

Then, as one of his own thunders, the idea hit Zeus with a bolt. There was nothing that could confirm it, but he knew, that Titan, that rebel was no other than his second child with the titan Metis. For a second he paralyzed, thinking of all things that implied them both fighting, and the posibility of his failure, and as he went through it all, his lighting became more violent and anxious.

The final match had started, Zeus and Zikaos dived into a fight that made the earth shake, and even the tiniest particle vibrate. Thunders were being fired everywhere, and sounds of metals as old as time echoed all over the world. The rest of the gods were being outnumbered by the beasts, who had once been human, and would still be if it weren't for said deities.

The fight continued, Zeus was fully concious that Zikaos had a prophecy advantage, he also knew that it would all end if he didn't win the match, so he called for help in a desperate attempt to gain some control over the fight. The help didn't take long to come, but it was only one elemnt, and perhaps the only one capable of helpong. It was the Goddess of wisdon and war, who had fiercely finished with half of the creatures. Athena.
