Well in the fifth chapter of Manipulating luck, two people in the review thought that this story would be a perfect choice first, and before I start writing this story, I needed to study the GREEK methodology, not Roman, nor Christian (Yes, even Christian have some relations with the mythology) to get the better understanding of how this will all play out.

Plus the information I've studied will be in the story, and if you all see this as "why make a big deal of this to study mythology? You're just writing a simple story" well I can't help myself if I don't have a story with logical information and facts. Same goes for the rest of my stories. I can't find any information about the Gods personality and behavior. other than Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon having arguments or who gets to be in charge… I'm not putting in this story.

This story does NOT have any relations with the storylines of Manipulating luck, nor origins of the six. What do I mean by that? Well, it's complicated and some of you all wouldn't understand…yet. This might be connected, but it's not part of the storyline.

Fun fact- did you know that Zeus has a total of 92 children! 41 were divine and 51 were demi/offsprings. Guess 52, now that I'm writing this story with Lincoln being adopted and having Zeus as the real father.

92 siblings...wow...or even more since gods are roaming around as we speak. bigger than 10, right? XD

On to the story...

(The year 2006)

Within the top of the heavens within the night moon skies stood upon what appeared to be a mountain and top of that stood a magnificent palace made out of quartz and gold. No not a palace... not a castle...Heck even bigger than a city... but Mount Olympus. On top of the mountains stood huge amounts of buildings many and much more. Mostly is due to the construction built over time for every demigods and Divine gods that have been born and lived for past time after the great war between gods and Titans. The war that was fought for over a decade… Titanomachy.

The great war that Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. The three fought for decades to defeat their own father, Kronos. After the death of his father, Zeus banished all the Titans including Gaia, a Titan who raced Zeus but regardless of her children fighting in the war and against the Gods, her children and herself were banished to the pits of Tartarus for the rest of their misery lives.

Later after the years have passed, after the war, Mount Olympus was created and later, twelve Olympians have lived and fought for the greatness of Olympus and for all mankind. Zeus claimed himself as kings of gods and took part of the role to become the ruler of skies and lightning. Poseidon, ruler of the seas, Earthshaker, and ruler of all horses. Hades god of the underworld. But after years past and how earth starts to settle. Each God then starts to settle down as well and roam around with the Mortal world, but that was years before. decades, centuries, and now this...

Within Olympus filled with many buildings, palaces, and even arenas. But in the middle stood an enormous, magnificent, yet Majestic building that only meant for gods and gods only, or even the demigods and divine gods who are shared blood with the original three brothers, Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. Inside we see twelve empty seats, but not ordinary seats as they were made out of quartz and gold the reason being empty was currently three gods set up a meeting, a meeting that leads to many arguments over the Sisters of Fate have prophesied to start within the future of 12 Years before now.

Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. even though, Hades does not belong within the reach of Olympus but was called over from the underworld for an argument over the prophet that would bring the destruction of Mount Olympus, along with the gods within them. Zeus seems to be in his mid-30s similar with the rest of his brothers. He has long white hair and white beard each of them being braided with a long golden thread, wearing a white robe or a tunic and brown leather sandals looking as if he was from the ancient Greek time.

Poseidon seems to be wearing what appears to be a fish scaly patterned armor chest plate with many types of leather strips that cover the whole lower body as if it looks like a skirt as that's how it's worn in ancient Greece, and same goes with the leather sandals just like Zeus.

Hades to be shirtless a rather wearing a black robe that went across below his chest, but also has dead animal skin around his waist similar to Poseidon as a skirt, but rather is long and has a head of a wolf on the side. but at this time he's barefooted. He also has long black hair with a small goatee.

Both are in front of each other arguing and yelling out of Rage discussing over the prophet that was bestowed to Zeus by the sisters of Fate long before Hercules was born.

Poseidon- (upset) "3,293 years have passed, Zeus! The prophecy will be fulfilled and the destruction of Olympus will come to its reach!"

Zeus - (also upset) "As long as we stay away from the mortal world, the prophecy will not be fulfilled! do not use your tongue against me!"

Hades- (echoey and repetitive voice) (also upset) "It wouldn't matter anymore, it was three months since you made that rule and we both know that Doris is pregnant with a child that belonged to you. what if that child could be the one? Shall I…

Zeus grabs Hades by the neck and lift him up in the air and looking at him with an upset and enraged look.

Zeus- (anger) "do not place a single finger against my child!" (Let's go and drops Hades to the ground) "even if this new child of mine could be the 'one', then I will have a meeting for every demigods offspring to be tasked with every effort to protect him or her against all evil, Olympus will prevail."

Poseidon- "Have you sent Hera to retrieve your child from the mortal Hospital?"

Zeus- (looks away) "Yes, I have, I also sense Doris's life force has passed away but my child still lives I can still sense his presence, I heard his cries."

Hades took notice as he gets up from the ground still holding his neck that left a bearing red mark. As he stood on his feet even gave Zeus the look of concern.

Hades- "So your child is born now. it wouldn't take long enough for Hera to retrieve your child, but if the prophet was true, then…"

Zeus- "Kronos, our father, will live again and rise from his tomb and seek the destruction of Olympus and the mortal world."

Poseidon then stood in front confronting both Zeus and Hades up to their face. This is rather alarming knowing that their own father, Kronos, the King of Titans. Will start the war over again, or worse... succeed on swallowing the last three of his children and leaving Olympus, Olympians, Divine Gods, and demigods...to their death. Leaving only the titans free to roam around the mortal world and seek to retrieve Pandora's box.

Poseidon- (upset) "Have the sisters of Faith lost their minds!?" (Facing Zeus) "you are their father! how could you let them make this prophecy amongst us?! You realize that the destruction of Olympians means the death of us all! Not only us, the twelve Olympians, but every demigod who lives in this Olympus, even other demigods and divine God's who are living amongst the mortal world, they will die as well!"

Zeus- "what choice could I've done!?... I try to banish them to the pits of Tartarus, but it seems as if they have control of our fates as well!"

Hades- (upset) "Your daughters have sent us to our death, Zeus, you've proven to let your guard down and let your own daughters temper and manipulate our lives, our own throne of being gods...and now our deaths!"

Just as Zeus about to lift his right arm making an electric bolt strong enough to be similar to a lightning bolt, Hera entered the room through the big two-way door decorated Greek pattern, she seems to be holding what appears to be a newborn infant wrapped around in blanket, but also the child could be heard with loud cries. The three brothers drew their attention towards Hera holding a child and presumed is the child of Zeus and possibly what the prophecy has foretold.

Hare looks at Zeus with an utter sadness and with great fear.

Hera- "Zeus...our fears have been proven...sisters of faith...has just begun…"

As Zeus stepped forward and starts to head towards Hera, who's holding the infant. Right after he got nearly close to Aries, she then unfolded the blanket that was covering the top of the child's head and showed what feared all three brothers to the very core. The child seems to have white hair… the same as the color as Zeus's.

Both watched the infant with great fear… the sisters of fate have cursed the gods for good.

Hera- (worried) "What shall we do, Zeus, if this is all true then this child cannot stay here, nor raced or visited as well... until his powers are awakened…or when he meets our children, he will be forced to…" (trembling for a moment) "but only time can tell."

Poseidon- "I'll go get Ares and Hercules, and we will begin."

So, Poseidon and Hades left the room. just as Zeus was about to follow, he looks back at Hera with a strict look.

Zeus- Hera, take my child to the Mortal world and send him to an orphanage. since Doris is no longer alive, nor she does not have any family of her own, it is best if another family were to take care of him for me...for all of us.

Hera- "But where will you go now?"

Zeus- "…We will check Kronos's tomb, now go."

And with that, Zeus left the room and headed towards the hall leaving Hera and the baby infant alone in the room, but Hera walked out of the room and followed Zeus and try to convince him to have his last moments with his child.

Hera- "Zeus, you cannot leave already,… at least have your final moment with your child. knowing that he will follow your footsteps… at any point, you have to tell him once he's ready… at least give him a name…"

Zeus hesitated at first but realize that Hera was right. it would be the last moment he will ever see his child until the time will come for the role for this purpose. It's been centuries that one of Zeus's children have been born, considering that he has many, many, many children. Hera then handed the child to Zeus as he holds him gently then gazed upon the infant's eyes, as his child looks at his father for the last moments. The infant then gave a smile. Zeus then returned the smile and later came up with a name that is perfect for him.

Zeus- "My child… you will be called… Alekos. Do not worry...you won't be alone...I will be by your side and we will meet again...soon."

Later the precision moment was interrupted as Hercules, his son, as he came around the corner of the hall and began calling for him to begin the trip. He looked to be muscular just like his father, he's also wearing a leather chest plate, with a leather skirt, along with the same sandals as his father. his hair has a bit of brown but reddish tone and a blue cape.

Hercules- "father, we need to-"

Hercules was later interrupted as his father turned around and sees that he's holding an infant in his hands. he also noticed that this infant has white hair, but he does not know what it means since the prophecy was not foretold to any demigods or Divine gods...only the 12 Olympians.

Hercules- "Father… who is that child."

Zeus gave a smile to his own son, Hercules, and then looks back at the infant.

Zeus- "Hercules… this is your brother, Alekos."

Hercules took this a surprise, his eyes widen and then looks back at the infant and begins to move forward taking a closer look at his own brother's face. As he gazed upon his own brother, he then gave up a heartwarming smile. A smile that he had never given to any infant since the birth of Persephone.

Hercules- (happy) "Hello, Alekos"

The child then drew his attention to his brother, Hercules. He was first confused for a moment but then gave a cheerful smile.

Hercules- "I am your brother, Hercules" (looks at Zeus) "may I… hold him, father?"

Zeus then gently passes his son to Hercules's arms. Hercules took a moment to realize that he was looking at a demigod who was born in the twentieth century, sure he might have many brothers and sisters, but they were born in the Greek age, but this was the happiest moment he had in a while.

Hercules- (smiled and chuckles for a moment) "...Alekos, eh. In the Greek language that means 'defender of mankind', it's that right, father?"

Zeus- "yes, my son" (sadden) "…but I'm afraid he will not be raised in here… not in Olympus"

Hercules- (confused) "What...is Doris going to be racing Alekos?

Zeus- (sorrow) "Doris…is dead... and I cannot raise him here."

Hercules- (shocked) "but... what will happen to my brother...are you going to outcast him just like you both done to Hephaestus." (backed away slowly from Zeus and Hera)

Hera- (assuring) "oh no no no, we would never do something horrible to an innocent youth...not anymore. That was all in the past and we will never do it again. but this is urgent"

Zeus- "he will be located to an orphanage, where his new family will raise, nurture, and comfort him. Just like how you were with the family that raised you, my son."

Hercules- (looks back to his brother) "...so is he going to be living as a mortal for the rest of his life?"

Zeus- "no, until his powers are awakened or meets the Olympian's children, he will be able to come and visit, or stay if he chooses to."

Hercules- "So after we finish our quest, my brothers and sisters might actually teach him how to-"

Zeus- (ensured) "I'm sorry, but he can't have any encounter with any of us...all of us."

Hercules- "Wh-what, but why?"

Zeus- "It's for his own safety"

Hercules- (upset) "But we are Gods, he will be safer with us!"

Zeus- "Yes indeed, but that's something you cannot understand. It's for the best, son"

Hercules felt sadden to know how his own new brother will be forced to live in the mortal world. He finally got a new brother born in the modern age... and now that happy moment was shattered to hear from his father that Alekos will live amongst the mortal with no contact with the gods or his siblings. He thought for a moment until...

Hercules- "Wh-what if I took him to the orphanage myself, father?"

Zeus- "I'm sorry, but we need to go and check for the tomb of Kronos. We need you to aid our journey, and we can't waste time.

Hercules wanted to reject his request so he could have more time, but he can't, he knew that he is speaking with the king of Gods. There are no exceptions of rejecting his choices in the situation of seeking to check the tomb of Kronos.

Zeus thought Hera could deliver his son to the orphanage but remembers that she has a task to do in order to keep all Divines and offsprings within Mount Olympus notified, and also she was going to warn all Olympians of the horrific truth. The time will come to an end… and will begin a new.

Zeus- "Hercules, ask your sister, Athena, to take the task for Hera, please."

Hercules- (sadden) "...I...yes…."

Zeus- (sympathy) "I understand that you're upset… I am upset as well, but this is for his own protection."

Hercules- (confused but rather insisting) "from what?"

Zeus- "I'm afraid I cannot tell… not to any other, but the Olympians, I'm sorry. Just not today, so please... don't oppose my decision."

Hercules- "yes... father"

Hercules leaves the hall and turns to the next corner to seek Athena for a task to be assigned to. Zeus looks back at the direction where Hercules walked so he could see his child for the last time but missed the moment.

Hera- (worried) "how could your daughters do this to us? To a child!?

Zeus- (facing Hera) "I...I don't know… but it's too late…"

To be continued...

The next chapter or the third will be a reference to the movie Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, where Lincoln goes to a field trip to the museum to study Greek mythology… And that's where shit happens. no, not where a Furi comes attack Lincoln… but where the teacher explains the full details of the prophecy, and that contains within it will be alarming.

Also, I need to write a new story that I've planned ever since Manipulating luck was created. I'm trying to continue the storyline and multiverse hopping that connects to it all.

So I'll see you all in the new story, see y'all later.
