GOD OF WAR: FATES DECREE

The boat rocked violently for about 30 seconds. Kratos and the others looked around, wondering what had happened. Suddenly, a large tentacle fired out of the water, grabbed a crewman and dragged him off the boat screaming. Kratos drew his blades as Gibbs approached ran up the to Jack.

"Sir, it's the Kraken!"

Kratos sneered as more tentacles slowly began to rise over the sides of the ship, inching their way towards its prey. He drew his blades just as Jack drew his, his eyes darting back and forth in panic. Kratos looked at the nearest tentacle, watching it rise and twist, coming down to snatch up more prey.

"Come on, you beast from Hades! I'll do to you just what I am going to do to your master!"

Kratos lept into the air and drove both blades into the arm, plunging deep into the Kraken's flesh, blood flowing from the wound. The arm snapped and began to shake around. He pulled one blade out and threw it so it embedded into the mast. Kratos then ripped the blade from the tentacle and swung on the other chain to another tentacle, pulling the embedded chain from the mast and plunging both blades into the suction side of the tentacles. An inhuman roar came from below as Kratos ran the blades down the tentacle, nearly splitting it in two. Then he glared at Jack, whose mouth had dropped during the whole incident.

"Sparrow, you fool," he shouted amongst the crewmen's screams and splash of water and wood, "Fight you damned coward!"

Jack glared at Kratos and ran for the nearest tentacle and swiped at it, promptly dodging as it came down at him. Kratos, meanwhile, threw his blades into another tentacle and latched on. The tentacle pulled him into the air, curling itself and Kratos detatched the blades, still flying up at the appendage. He cleaved through the top of the arm, blood covering his body and flying all over. He then turned in mid air and launched his blades into the next arm. Swinging around the arm, Kratos did 2 360 s around the arm before it had been sawed off, blood pouring forth like a vial from the wound and onto the deck of the ship. He landed, crouched, on the deck.

"Is this all you have you damned beast," he roared as he charged at the next arm.

Meanwhile, Jack had attacked only one tentacle and was still trying to fight it off as it continued to grab sailors and smash about the deck. He had just dodged yet another near death squish, when he heard something large burst out of the water. A large shadow cast over the Black Pearl, as the two enormous fore arms of the Kraken rose from the waters, rising high into the air and preparing to destroy the ship and feast upon the crew.

"Oh bugger," Jack said with all his might.

Kratos turned and saw the appendages rising out of the water. Realizing what they were, he wasted no time in climbing the mast, moving at the same speed the arms were. As he reached the top of the mast, he slowly moved towards it's end just as the arms stopped moving.

"Sparrow," he called down to the captain. Jack turned and saw Kratos on top of the ship.

"What in the bloody blazes are you doing up there mate," he called back, "The fight's down here not up there!"

Kratos ignored his reply.

"Arm the cannons and fire at that arm now!"

"What about the other one," Jack called back.

Kratos replied by hurling himself off of the mast and at the enlarged tentacle. Jack's eyes went wide as Kratos was propelled through the air at the arm. His body and blades smashed into the tentacle, pushing it back as Kratos began digging his blades into the arm, blood flowing over his pale body. Jack smirked as he ran to Gibbs and a few others.

"Load the cannons! And prepare to fire!"

Gibbs and the others immediately began loading the two upper deck cannons that were pointing at the other arm. They packed what gun powder they could, up to the brim of what they could fill.

Kratos continued slicing into the arm, tearing a large bloody hole in the arm. He then slid himself into the hole and began cutting the Kraken from inside, tearing bloody chunks off of it's body and grinding his blades into the cartilage of it's tentacle. He inhaled the dense smell of blood, flesh, and ammonia as he continued ripping into it.

"Are you ready to fire yet, Mr. Gibbs," Jack asked quickly. Gibbs nodded and held the light just above the fuse.

"Fire!"

The order given, Gibbs lit the fuses and both cannons fired simultaneously at the arm, blasting right through it and leaving only a small strand of flesh between both the top and bottom of the wound. The tentacle collapsed on it's own weight and broke off into the ocean, blood spraying out of the arm. Jack gave a smile and the rest of the crew continued fighting off the other arms.

Hearing the interior roar of the beast, Kratos began to spin around, his blades chopping into the flesh of the beast. Without much more effort, the top of the tentacle exploded off of the rest, blood popping forth from it in a stream, as Kratos laughed and jumped off of the wounded arm and onto the deck. He landed crouched and turned to see the bloody arm sink beneath the sea. The rest of the arms began to retract from the ship as well, going below the waves of crimson water. What remained of the crew gave a shout of victory and Jack strode up to Kratos. He looked up and down Kratos' blood covered body and laughed some.

"Looks like you had your fill of blood shed, mate. We make a pretty good team."

Kratos glared at him.

"You're a fool, Jack Sparrow. Do you and your crew really think this thing is over with?"

Jack frowned. Suddenly the boat rocked hard and a monstrous roar erupted from the waters. Kratos turned to port side and saw the Kraken, it's entire body and monstrous mouth rising from the ocean, it's tentacles latching onto the boat.

"Sparrow! Quickly, grab a barrel of your gun powder and bring it to me at once!"

Kratos held a sharp gaze to the Kraken as Jack ran to get the gun powder from the lower decks. The Kraken roared, it's foul breath covering everyone on board as it's tentacles grabbed more crewmen and began to throw them into it's maul. Kratos threw out his blades, fighting every encroaching tentacle that came at him. Blood rained down as he slashed at every bit of octipi flesh that came near him, oblivious to the one tentacle creeping behind him. It snatched his leg and felled him, just as two other tentacles grabbed the chains of his blades. Kratos grunted and squirmed, trying to free himself as the Kraken carried him to it's jaws. Jack came back topside, a large barrel of gun powder in his arms. Seeing the sight, he dropped the barrel and grabbed a rifle from a fallen crew member. He fired, the bullet flying into one of the Kraken's tentacles holding his chain. The arm let go of the chain and Kratos quickly used it to swipe at the other tentacles holding him, severing their hold of him. As he was standing up, Jack ran next to him with he barrel.

"Here you are mate! What's the plan?"

Kratos tore off a piece of his tattered tunic and stuffed it into the top hole of the barrel. He then cracked both lades together to light a fire on it, that slowly traveled down the piece of cloth. Jack smiled and laughed.

"Aha! I see how you're doing it! But how are you going to get that in the beastie there?"

Kratos grinned. He pulled back the blade of Athena and rammed it through the barrel and into Jack. Jack sputtered and blood came up from his mouth. He looked at Kratos with accusing eyes.

"Now you're debt will be settled Jack and we can be rid of this beast as well. Goodbye!"

Kratos then kicked Jack back, so they were his full chain length apart. Then he turned and began to swing his chain with all his strength, the blade still hooked into Jack and the powder keg. After 3 great turns, Kratos hurled the two at the opening maul of the Kraken.

"Oh bugger," Jack sputtered as he was hurled into the Kraken's awaiting mouth. Kratos sheathed his blades and jumped off the ship, just as the Kraken's head and body exploded in a tremendous blast, almost completely destroying the ship and sending pieces of flesh and wood everywhere.

Davy Jones watched from his spyglass, madness and anger in his eyes as he saw his beloved Kraken explode in a fiery blast and cloud of blood. He pulled the glass down and bellowed.

"Sail over to the remnants of the Pearl! There will be no survivors!!!"

His crew laughed and readied their swords as the ship began to sail over to the remains of the Pearl.

The Black Pearl was barely there, most of the ship had gone with the explosion, the rest catching fire and slowly sinking. The Dutchman pulled up next to her, looking over the remnants. The water was crimson from the beast and glowed with the light from the fires. Davy Jones surveyed the scene and shook his head.

"It appears that all on board were killed after all," he said with a chuckle.

"I don't think so!"

Jones turned to see Kratos standing there, two of the Dutchman crew members in pieces before him. Jones glared at him, his hand slowly reaching for his sword. Kratos whipped one of his swords and it cleaved through Jones' right arm, severing it. Jones yelled as a green like fluid, mixed with water and blood sprayed from the hole. As Kratos' blade returned, he threw out his other one, severing the other arm. The other spewed the same "blood" as the other side and Jones yelled once again in rage. His crew could only watch in shock as Kratos then brought both blades across Jones' legs, causing him to fall down. Kratos sheathed his blades and walked up to the limbless Jones and put his boot on the captain's chest.

"How do I leave this world, Captain," he asked glaring.

Davy Jones could do nothing and his crew didn't appear to want to go near The Ghost of Sparta either. Kratos drew his blades and crossed them by Jones' neck.

"You may live forever Captain, but it doesn't mean your limbs will regrow either. Now talk!"

Davy Jones bellowed once more before finally giving in.

"Take this ship due south and just continue until you reach the Artic Wastes. You'll find a passage within a glacier and you go through there. Just keep going until you reach the end of the world."

Kratos smiled. "Thank you Captain."

Kratos then ripped his blades through Jones' neck, severing the head. He then looked at the crew, who were holding themselves back.

"Throw his twitching remains over the ship and set sail due south! If any of you fail to follow my orders, you'll be joining your former Captain!"

The crew quickly dropped their weapons and promptly threw Davy Jones overboard, his head still yelling and cursing, even as it sank into the ocean. Then the ship began it's long, arduous trek to the End of the World. Kratos sat in the Captain's quarters, his back to the organ as he contemplated how he arrived to this point and how he was going to get himself out. After what seemed an eternity, the Pulson came in.

"We are there sir," he said and then left.

Kratos rose and then followed him out. The skies were completely lit with stars. It almost seemed as if they were sailing through the very cosmos. Kratos stood at the helm, anxious for his ending. The heavy sound of rushing water caught his attention and he could see mist rising.

"That must be it," he said to himself.

Without another moment of hesitation, he hurled himself off of the Dutchman and into the starry waters. They were ice cold and chilled Kratos to his very bones. He swam quickly, pushing all his might into propelling him to the edge of the world. The sound and roar of water became louder and louder as he neared it.

"Here goes nothing!"

He pushed himself harder at the misting waters. Then before he realized it, he flew out from the water and was plummeting into the vast underbelly of nothingness. He yelled as he descended, the waterfall slowly disappearing from view as he continued falling. A flash of green electricity in the darkness caught his attention and soon after flaring up, it zapped him. He grunted and strained against the pain of the voltage before his body erupted into a light smoke and disappeared.
