THE FAST BATTLE AND PROPHECIES
Atreus was the first one to wake up in the afternoon before Calliope, he decided to train alone in the arena. Atreus didn't want to use a weapon, so he decided to use his fists instead. Without hesitation Atreus runs around the arena going at super speed, he preforms a high jump into the air, while in the air hovering over Olympus he dives going really fast like a commit hitting the earth. When he lands on the ground it created a powerful shock wave like an earthquake. Next he begins to throw alot of puches and kicks trying to seek advantage on studying Chaos's moves if has any chance of beating him, he remembers himself being mercilessly being beaten by Chaos's attack. Atreus begins to slowly get angry again, about Chaos threatening to kill Calliope, mocking his mother, even humiliating him. Atreus was getting more angry by the second, it causes him to loose control again. The boy was so angry that he runs to a nearby wall in the arena and punches it with strong a fist, destroying the wall as it crumbles in pieces and it slightly shakes Olympus. Atreus took in deep breaths, and he was just surprised on what he had done. The boy nearly destroyed the arena with a single hit and said "Oops.". Greek Kratos was actually near the gate with his back up against the wall watching the hole thing from the start and Atreus noticed him as Greek Kratos walks to him and faces the boy.
"Well that was quite a performance."
"I'm sorry."
"I think you would have to say that to Zeus, he actually created this place."
"Oh. Well I guess I'll do that later and I should be able to go Sparta later at dawn. And soon enough we will know who's the man behind the mask and spill alot of blood from his body."
"I must admit that you really want to kill Chaos after everything he has done."
"He needs to pay for humiliating me, insulting my mother. He even threatened to kill Calliope but I won't let that happen, not even in a million years!"
"Perhaps, but we need to figure this out together. If you choose to walk this vengeful path, bad consequences could lead to disasters, Atreus."
"I know but all I want is to keep Calliope and Lysandra safe no matter what. I will not stand by and watch Chaos hurt the ones I care about, I have to do something."
"Atreus, you have to see to it that all you need to know is that the plan will succeed and when it does we will have all of the information that we seek."
"Your right. I should to Sparta later on and then Chaos will be begging for mercy."
With that said, Atreus walks out of Olympus and heads to Sparta to wait for Chaos, the man who refers to himself as Ultimate god. Meanwhile Greek Kratos checking in on Lysandra and Calliope making sure that they are alright from Atreus's small outburst of fury, rage, and vengeance.
"Kratos, what happened? the whole mountain was shaking?"
"It was Atreus, Lysandra. The boy got angry again. And since he has the strength of a god he was able to make an earthquake with a single hit."
"Is Atreus safe, Father?"
"Yes my child, he is safe. The boy went to Sparta, when dawn breaks they will possibly meet again."
"I think I will go check on him just to be sure he is ok."
"No, child. You must stay here where it's safe, away from Chaos's grasp."
"I know Father, but Atreus needs his sister. I need to make sure he is safe too, my own heart would break if something were to happen to him. But I will only be gone in a few minutes, please for me." - knowing Calliope all to well, no one not even a god could say no to those innocent eyes, Greek Kratos and Lysandra looked at eachother, sighed and said "alright then, Calliope. Just be careful out there, if anything happens come back here and let us know."
"I will Mother and Father, I promise." - After Calliope finished her sentence, she gave Kratos and Lysandra a hug, and left the chambers. It was almost sundown when she was near Sparta she first wanted to test out if she could unlock her super speed. Calliope noticed that her old house wasn't very far from where she was so she decided that if she could run to her house at super speed. She went into a running stance, concentrated very hard and without hesitation she runs to her house, moving at high speeds was not easy for her. When she saw her home she immediately stopped before she could run into a wall. She was breathing really hard because her stamina was really weak from the exercise or fast acceleration that was forming from her body. She was speaking to herself "I suppose it's better than walking, maybe Atreus could teach me how to control it's abilities." Then she continues to walk the rest of way to Sparta. When she enters the city looking for Atreus, she asked a female citizen if she has seen a young boy named Atreus a.k.a the god of speed and she has seen him just about 15 minutes ago heading to the palace of king Leonidas.
"Thank you so much for your help."
"Your welcome Calliope, goddess of light." - After they finished their conversation, Calliope walked to the palace of king Leonidas. When she opens to doors she sees Atreus training with Spartans. The boy was easily out matching the might Spartan warriors by using his speed. Calliope was just smiling on how Atreus was just being cocky with the greatest warriors of Greece. Atreus noticed Calliope and she walks over to him, even Atreus noticed that she saw the whole thing and feels a little bit embarrassed.
"Hey, Calliope. I was uh training." - That was all that Atreus could think of he couldn't think of anything else to say, he was nervous. Calliope rolls her eyes in a playful way and replies back to her half-brother.
"I'm sure you were, Atreus. But what would father think of if he saw you doing something like this to his Spartan followers, hmm."
"Well I'm sure he wouldn't like the idea as well. But I was actually practicing for Chaos next battle since I accidentally almost destroyed our training arena."
"Oh, so that's how the earthquake started. Well I understand how you feel, you only want to protect me. I get it, now Atreus."
"Thanks, Calliope. I knew you would understand."
"And I give you this for being such a good brother to me." - Atreus wasn't sure of what she meant but when she hugs him he understood what she meant. But she wasn't done talking yet she does this playful threat hopping she doesn't hurt Atreus in a painful way.
"And this is for waking me up, thinking we were all attack." - Calliope says while still hugging Atreus, she literally punched Atreus in the stomach but not to hard. The boy groans in pain, he wasn't really expecting that to happen.
"Ok, I guess I deserved that."
"Of course you did."
"Alright that's enough. I guess you should head back to Olympus to get ready for the plan."
"Your right. And Atreus their's something I need to tell you."
"Really, what is it?"
"Well, I have the same..." - Calliope's sentence was interrupted by a woosh sound and who was at the front door was none other than Chaos. Atreus quickly grabs Calliope's hand and puts her behind him for her protection. Atreus whispers in Calliope's ear and says "Calliope, find another way out and signal the gods to ready the trap."
Calliope nods her head in a yes gesture, and she exits the palace. When she is outside, she puts her hand upwards to create a white beacon and Norse Kratos noticed Calliope's signal. So he quickly let's the gods know to set up the trap. On Atreus's point of view after Calliope exits the palace.
"So you finally decided to show your face again, Chaos."
"This time the gods will watch us as I beat you, as you cry for mercy."
"If you want to do that, then catch up to me." - With that said Atreus runs out of the palace and Chaos gives chase. Atreus was actually doing well at out running Chaos this time, but however Chaos was slightly catching up with him but they are in Olympus already. Atreus stopped in one of the hallways and Chaos stopped as well, and now they face eachother.
"I see you have gotten slightly faster, Good. Soon enough we have a battle that will destroy all of Greece."
"Not gonna happen today or any other day."
"We will see about that, boy." - But in the blink of an eye, Chaos punched Atreus in the gut, then in the chin and it causes the boy to be in the air for a second but Chaos grabs his left leg, slams Atreus to the ground and up into the air again. Chaos leaps to Atreus's body to send them both a wall and destroying it, and now they are on the ground in the battle arena. Atreus gets back up with ease and gets into a battle stance.
'I just have to make him step into the energy walls so he can't escape.'
Next Atreus charged Chaos but this time the boy had the upper hand, in the speed of light the boy begins to fight Chaos head-on. They were both striking and dodging eachothers attacks, over and over. (DBZ style). They both grab eachothers fists and were pushing forward, their great strength causes Olympus to shake beneath their feet, the grounds crumbling, skies splitting, and walls tumbling. Atreus noticed that Chaos's body was right behind the energy barriers but they weren't turned on just yet, he just needed a push, so he head-butted Chaos in the face and punched him in the gut that forced his body to back up.
"NOW!" - After Atreus said that, Hephaestus activated the trap in time, and Chaos was stuck in their. He tried to run his way out from all sides but the barriers were to strong for him. All of the gods were entering the arena even Greek Kratos, Norse Kratos, Lysandra, and Calliope seeing that Atreus prevailed, the boy joined them and now they all stare at the one who calls himself the ultimate god.
"Well done, boy."
"I must say lad, you've actually done it."
"Thanks, guys." - Atreus responds to his father and Mimir with a smile and after that Calliope runs to Atreus giving him a strong hug.
"I knew you could do it, Atreus. I always believed in you."
"Thanks, Calliope." - Atreus said with a smirk, Atreus and Calliope both walk to the energy barriers and talk to Chaos while everyone remains silent.
"None of you are on your knees. It's a smart move to bow before a deity."
"Your not a god."
"To be a god, you just have to make mortals believe you are."
"No one believes in you."
"You should, Calliope. I hold the power of life and death over all of you."
"How do you know so much about us?"
"I know you, Lysandra. Zeus, Hera, Athena, Aphrodite, Persephone, Hades, Poseidon, Thanatos, Hermes, Hephaestus, Kratos, Mimir, Future Kratos. I know your fears and I know your weaknesses. I know you better than you know yourselves. I know your destiny's, a few of you will fall and our ultimate battle will bring about the destruction of Mount Olympus. This is the knowledge I have for you. About your everlasting damnation."
"Who are you?"
"I am the ultimate god."
"What do you want from us?"
"Everything! Everything you took from me, I want it back. And I'm going to take it back. Then, I will destroy you, Atreus."
"Then why haven't you already? if you're all powerful then why don't you just kill us all and be done with it? Because you can't."
"You did this to me. You trapped me in eternity. Your future self, you did this to me, Atreus. And now the age of my vengeance rises. My freedom is at hand. You will all feel my wrath. THE WRATH OF CHAOS!"
"Well news-flash Chaos you are the one who's trapped in here, idiot." - Atreus regretted saying those words, no one didn't expect this to happen. Chaos was walking forward to the energy barrier while vibrating his body, he phased out of the shields and grabbed Atreus by the throat. Everyone backs up, Norse Kratos quickly grabs his laviathan axe and charges Chaos, Norse Kratos slams his axe into the ground making it turn ice which caused Chaos to lose his footing and lets go of Atreus. Norse Kratos jumps into the air and lands on top of Chaos's body, he was being punched by Norse Kratos so many times that alot blood was covering his body.
"STAY! AWAY! FROM! MY! SON!" - Norse Kratos says with fury, he tries to stab Chaos through the head with the blades of chaos but Chaos lands a fist into Kratos's face which caused the demigod to fly into air, crashing through Olympus into the great halls and fell unconscious. Greek Kratos, Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Thanatos, and Hermes try to attack Chaos at once but none of them were no match for him. He easily took them out without even breaking a sweat. Atreus recovered and sees that the Greek gods are down, the boy tries to attack Chaos with multiple strikes but Chaos was just toying with him.
"What's wrong Atreus, I was just warming up."
"Are you saying that you weren't even fighting at full strength?."
"Yes, that's right, boy. I've only used 50 percent of my speed." - After Chaos has had enough of this, he decides to pull out a wrist blade, stabs Atreus with it and pulls the knife out. The boy screams in pain and was losing alot of blood.
"Don't think I'm finished with you yet, Atreus. You will not die tonight but in the future you will be in a nightmare that you never escape." - After that said Chaos leaves Olympus and goes back to his hideout. Calliope goes to Atreus's body, she puts pressure on his wound and Atreus's vision began to faded into darkness. Calliope has tears in her eyes as they stroll down to her cheek.
"Atreus, please stay with me! Stay with me, please!"
Norse Kratos regained consciousness from Chaos's strong attack. When he enters the arena again, he runs to Calliope who was trying to heal Atreus's body. The boy was once again defeated by Chaos.
"Boy! My son I won't let you die. Faye, what do I do? Our son is not ready to face Chaos and neither am I. He's more stronger than all of us, I cannot do this without you. But all of us will find another way and we'll stop him."
Norse Kratos had always said that his son was not ready to face strong opponents but this is way more different. He would not listen to his father's words, if his mother was still alive, Atreus would listen to her, but she's gone. The boy was barley alive, but this was not the time to celebrate. Calliope was concentrating on healing Atreus's wound with her light powers, when it was done Kratos pick up and carried the boy back to his chambers and Calliope, Greek Kratos, and Lysandra followed in pursuit. Norse Kratos gently puts Atreus on his bed to rest.
"Atreus. My brother barley made it. But how will we stop Chaos? Do you thinking that what Chaos said about one of us dying and bringing the destruction of Olympus could be true?" - Calliope said to Norse Kratos and the demigod god replies to his daughter.
"I don't know, Calliope. But There's no way we could stop him, Atreus only bested him once when he got angry, it could be a dangerous weapon if he learns how to control it but he clearly cannot."
"So what do you suppose we should do? Just surrender to Chaos?" - Greek Kratos was just mocking Norse Kratos because this one couldn't even protect his own child and he calls himself a father.
"You would not understand the pain that I have endured ever since my Lysandra and Calliope were gone."
"They were gone by your own hand."
"It was never my intention! I pledged an oath in blood and now my home. All that I loved is gone, Atreus is the only family I have left ever since Faye died."
"Gentleman, please. We'll find a way, if we all work together."
"Lysandra. Me and the gods tried that already but it did not work."
"Then we need another warrior who could move at the speed of light like Atreus."
"The only warrior who could do that is my son. And where do you purpose we could find another one."
"You've already found one. I have the same abilities as Atreus." - Calliope says to them. But they would need proof, so they exit Atreus's room and step into the hallways, she runs around in circles using her orange colored super speed. Lysandra, Norse Kratos, and Greek Kratos were all speechless.
"How can you have the same powers as Atreus, Calliope?" - Mimir was the one to actually speak to Calliope since no one else could.
"I think it happened when Atreus and I were fighting Ares. When I was wounded he gave me his speed to heal my wound, after I became a god it must have took some time for my devine blood to produce Atreus's power. I couldn't use against Chaos while he was attacking us, I was scared that he might go after me because he knows how much Atreus cares for me."
"It's fine, my child. I understand how you must feel right now, but now that we know what your capable of, you and Atreus could surely take down Chaos once and for all to prevent the prophecies from ever happening."
"Thank you, father."
"My love, we should all get some get rest while we still can. Chaos is still out there."
"Your right, Lysandra."
