SolSparda369: it runs in the family. Kill a giant monster with style!
kerrowe: Well he got stabbed by his own sword in the fight with Ares, he also got impaled by scythes from those demons with the scythes from the first fight in Devil May Cry 3. This took place in the Lightning Thief by the way.
Drake groaned as he stirred from the land of sleep. As soon as he opened his eyes he shut them due to blinding light shining on them and he groaned, turning away from the sun and blinked his eyes a few times until he could see normally.
Suddenly the events of the fight with the Kraken raced through his mind and he sat up, only for a hand to be gently placed on his shoulder and he looked up to see what is the most beautiful woman he has ever seen.
The woman was breathtakingly beautiful with long dark hair flowing down like a waterfall and stopping halfway down her back. She had beautiful blue eyes and a soft smile on her face that reminded him of his godmother, Hestia. She wore a white dressed which clung to very womanly figure and the dress stopped at her ankles, revealing her barefeet.
"Easy, young one." She said softly.
Drake frowned at her, she looked very familiar but he couldn't place it. "Whoa re you? Where am I?"
"You are on my island." The woman said softly and with a smile. "I brought you here. I must say, to be the first demigod in history to kill the Kraken is a great feat to accomplish. I would not be surprised if the news had reached others."
"Wait, I'm the first to have killed the Kraken?" Drake blinked in surprise as she nodded. "Woah...cool."
The woman giggled. "You took down one of the biggest sea monsters and you can only say 'cool'?"
Drake shrugged. "I get that habit from my dad, he's slayed giant monsters himself so it runs in the family from my dad's side." He paused and looked at her again, trying to figure out who she was, the woman only looked amused but before she could speak another voice did that.
"Is he up yet, Rhea?" The woman who walked in was very beautiful. She had milky skin and dark hair that flowed down her back like a river. Two silvery eyes like starts in the night met with his own and almost instantly a connection to who this woman was came to Drake ad he uttered one word.
"Grandma Leto?"
Leto smiled widely while Rhea pouted but understood since Leto was his grandmother. "Hello grandson." Leto said with a soft smile and walked over to him, cupping his cheeks "It's nice to finally meet my daughter's son."
Drake then remembered something she said. "Wait, you said Rhea, as in...?" he looked at the other woman who waved at him with a smile. "Great-Grandma?"
Rhea giggled. "Yes, I am. It's nice to meet you Drake."
Leto hummed as she looked over her son, seeing a mix of Dante and Artemis in him, especially his eyes, they were Artemis' which she got from her. "Yes, you look so much like your father but you have your mother's eyes. I was there for the wedding, you know? I was so happy when learning my baby girl had found someone she can finally love after that whole Orion fiasco. I'm glad it wa ssomething she willingly did and wasn't manipulated into it by Aphrodite just to one up her rival. I am very proud of you, Drake. You've battled and defeated the God of War, and you just recently defeated the Kraken."
"Speaking of which..." Rhea snapped her fingers and the head of the Kraken appeared before them. "Your spoils of war from the Kraken. It's head. Though, I suggest you'd want it placed in Camp Half-Blood, huh?"
Drake nodded so the Mother of the original six Olympians snapped her fingers again and the head disappeared where it would appear in the Artemis cabin back in Camp Half-blood.
"thank you for making sure I wasn't drifting out there." Drake said with a sheepish smile.
Leto giggled as Rhea smiled. "It was our pleasure. We wanted the chance to meet the son of Artemis who has been talked about for over a year since the reveal of you to all. I was shocked to find out Artemis had actually gotten married as well." Rhea pouted at Leto. "And you didn't tell me."
"Sorry, she wanted it secret what with her oath and everything along with Zeus being paranoid about his daughters like all fathers are with their daughters." Leto said with a smile.
Drake snorted at that, hard to imagine Zeus would be like protective dad because his daughters like boys.
"Now." Rhea clapped her hands together and smiled at Drake. "While we know you have friends and a quest to get to, how about we make you some food before you go and you can tell us some stories about your father and his side of your family?"
Drake smiled, happily taking the opportunity to spend time with his grandmother on his mother's side and his great-grandma, the one and only Rhea, mother to Zeus, Hera, Hades, Demeter, Poseidon and Hestia.
Let smiled as she saw her grandson happily nod. She was a little upset Artemis was allowing the Ancient Laws to stop her from seeing her son when no mother should follow some stupid laws that prevent her from seeing her children, but that was just her opinion but even Rhea agreed that the laws shouldn't come in between a parent and their children.
Zeus really did get his paranoia from Kronos, thinking everyone was out to get him.
The next hour and a half was spent with Drake telling Rhea and Leto stories of his father, uncle, and grandfather Sparda. Rhea and Leto laughed at some of the stories, like when Drake, when he was young, stole Dante's motorcycle without the Legendary Devil Hunter noticing and it was only because Drake ran into Trish and Lady that he was brought back to a less than amused, but a little amused, Dante.
Drake spent the time bonding with his grandmother and great-grandmother, listening to the stories they told of the gods and their own lives. Rhea told the happy moments of her life instead of the dark ones like her marriage to Kronos and him swallowing five of her children. Though Drake frowned when Rhea said she rarely gets visited by her children, with only Hestia visiting her. Hell, Rhea wasn't even allowed to set foot on Olympus to see her children because Zeus and Hera were paranoid she'd want to become queen again.
Can't they see their own mother had no desire to be queen again? No, clearly they were paranoid just as Kronos was.
The thought just made Drake angry.
Drake offered to stay for the night which Leto agreed to, saying she will search for his friends in the Sea of Monsters and he can go to them tomorrow. Rhea showed Drake to a guest bedroom and he thanked her which she smiled at before leaving him to sleep.
The next day, Drake stood on the beach with Rhea and Leto. The two Titans had given him a new jacket to wear since his old one was ripped. He now wore a red jacket which looked faded, has a a washed-out look, a skull on his back and also resembles his dad's jacket when he went to Fortuna to defeat the Order of the Sword. It also looks very similar to the jacket Dante wears today but Drake's had a hood.
"Well, it's been fun meeting you guys." Drake smiled at them.
"We agree." Rhea smiled at him.
"I do hope we meet again, grandson." let said and hugged him to which he returned the hug. "I also want to hear more of you and Aphrodite's girl."
"Grandma." Drake whined which made both woman laugh at how cute he was being. Drake got serious. "I promise to try and make sure some of your other children will visit, Grandma Rhea."
Rhea smiled at him softly, feeling his love for family and loyalty to his own. "Oh how I wish you were a child of mine, Drake." She whispered and hugged her great grandson close and kissed the top of his head in a motherly fashion. "Now go, find your friends. We will meet again in the future."
We'll make sure of it." Leto said as Drake got onto the sailboat the two woman got for him and he began sailing, waving to the two women who waved back and he watched until he could no longer see them and he sighed, looking forward.
'One day, Grandma Rhea, I am going to help you see your family again...'
And that's it for this chapter. Leto and Rhea were basically a cameo in this, or guest appearance. Now in some stories, Rhea has a good realtionship with her children even though only Hestia, and to some extent Hades, visit her, I wanted one where it was Zeus' paranoia along with Hera's desire to remain queen that makes them keep their mother off Olympus.
Whoever said the Greek Olympians were nice and respectful? idiots, because that's like saying Zeus doesn't cheat on his wife and happily loves her, or Hera doesn't try to kill the women and children of her husband because she can't do anything to him aside from divorce his ass which she can't because, goddess of Marriage.
Also Drake's new jacket is basically Dante's DMC 5 jacket but with a hood attached to it.
