1. OriginalDrumy - I'm glad you're enjoying the story. I would recommend getting the books. The movies follow a different storyline than the books and aren't as informative.
2. darkxlunatiic - It's not really a blind rage. As you'll find out later in the story, he compares the gods to the otsutsuki who, in the post shippuden au I'm working on, destroyed his home. He isn't resorting to killing them first thing. He wants answers, the truth.
3. Iskander Hero - I already have a plan for both his future personal weapon and 'mount'

Two Years Later
In the two years since Indra learned about his heritage and the origins of his powers and not much had changed. There were no monster attacks or anything supernatural occurring.
He spent most of his time either working on his powers or continuing to 'learn' Japanese and Greek while reading more about Greek mythology. In the time he couldn't do either, he was spending his time at school. Speaking of school, Indra is proud to say that after some intense concentration in English classes, Indra was able to skip three years and jump straight to fifth grade by the time he would have started the second.
He was happy to not be stuck with fangirls anymore besides when he passed them in the halls. But, in return, he had a bunch of ten year olds doting on him and treating him like a baby, even the teachers got in on it. It was arguably worse than in the academy back in Konoha. At least there he was mostly left on his own.
Outside of school, he was progressing slower than he liked, especially physically. He understood he wasn't even eight but he needed to get stronger as fast as he could. Martial arts was a good way to strengthen himself but it was too soft. The fights were never enough to keep him on his toes or feel danger.
The instructors would always praise him as a genius because he learned everything so quickly. He was a yellow belt in Judo and is on his way to be the youngest blackbelt in the country for it. In kickboxing, he was already a blackbelt and working to move up the ranks. Though, to Indra, the moves weren't anything fancy. His personal fighting style was much more complex. To push himself more he was working to mix the moves of judo and kickboxing along with some of his own to create a new style that his small body could take advantage of. Without chakra, his old style would be severely restricted.
As he was working more physically however, he began to notice that his body was different from others his age. He was stronger, faster, and had more stamina than others. He chalked it up to him being a demigod but there was room to investigate. Also of note, his vision and healing was superhuman as well. If he focused hard enough it felt like he had the sharingan , the hand shaped bruise on his neck from his fight with the monster healed in a week and his broken finger in less than a month. Small cuts and scrapes would only last a few hours before disappearing. It was like a lesser version of Naruto's insane regenerative abilities.
Besides his achievements academically and physically, his powers have grown in strength as well. Since his initial practice where he exhausted himself after a few minutes, Indra spent more time practicing control and endurance over brute force. Every time he was alone he would create funnels and currents of air and shape them into whatever he imagined. He had managed to recreate multiple wind style jutsu and even surpass them. With lightning, he was working to regain his control over the element as he did in his past life. He found that it was easy to create but more difficult to shape. It kept wanting to form bolts. He blamed his father for that.
Indra was currently at school and planning his days ahead of him. It was difficult to focus in class when he already knew everything being taught. He wished he could just graduate elementary school already. The district allowed him to jump to the final elementary grade but wouldn't let him go higher. They argued that it 'wasn't healthy' for a kid his age to be put under too much pressure and be disconnected from his piers.
Perhaps he could work on lightning some more, there's a thought. He had an idea on a new move he could could develop. Great, now he made the school day more unbearable in anticipation. luckily the school day was almost over.
"Indra," the teacher called. "Can you answer this question on the board?" Shaken from his thoughts, Indra focused and looked up at the board.
Written with a black expo marker was an equation. It was a simple problem, dividing fractions. With a sigh, Indra pushed back his seat and walked up to the front of the class. The teacher handed him a marker and he wrote down the answer in record time.
"That's correct Indra. You even wrote down how you solved it, well done." The teacher complimented.
"Indra is just so cute up there." someone whispered.
"I know right? He's so smart too."
"I could have done it too if I was called up there. He's not that special."
"Shut up Richard!"
"Ok kids, quiet down. That was the final lesson of the day. Now I'll go over your homework that's due tomorrow. And remember, no late work." The teacher spoke as Indra returned to his desk. Cries of protest sounded in the room. No one liked homework.
Indra tuned him out. He already knew this stuff so he would just finish the homework when he got it. No point in waiting when he could finish it in at most five minutes.
School ended about ten minutes later and everyone was gathering their things into their backpacks. Chatter filled the air and people began to leave one by one. Indra had finished his homework a few minutes ago and was already ready to leave. As he went to leave the classroom, a hand found its way to his shoulder.
Looking back, Indra met face to face with another student from his class. It was Richard from earlier. Class clown and the only person who actively talks to him other than teachers and love-struck girls.
"Hey Indra, I know I said that I could solve the problems earlier, but in truth these fractions things just aren't clicking. So, what I'm trying to say is, could I copy your homework?" Richard finished a touch embarrassed. Even if they 'got along' it was still a blow to his pride to ask someone two years younger for homework answers.
"I'm busy today, ask someone else." Indra says in a monotonous tone. He didn't have time to help children, he had better things to do. He went to pass Richard but he was blocked by an arm.
"Please, I'll be so fast that you wont have time to blink." Richard pleaded.
Indra let out a sigh. Most of the class had left already and he wouldn't get anywhere without indulging him. "Fine."
"Thank yo-"
"But, I'm not letting you copy it. I'll write down how to solve them but the rest is up to you. You won't have anyone to help you when you're older so get used to it." Indra interrupted. In less than a minute he somehow explained how to solve multiplying and diving fractions and was out the room.
He was still young so he could get away with running in the hallways. He didn't have a second to spare. Slowing his pace, he walked out the front door and saw his mom's car in the front parking lot. Looking both ways across the parent pickup street, he ran in-between cars to his. Since he was already late, he opened the door and hopped in. Placing his backpack beside him in the back seat of their car. He placed his seatbelt on so they could go.
"Someone's in a hurry today." his mom chuckled. Indra huffed and turned on the radio. If this were back in his old world he would have surely put on the news. Any information on other nations and even his own was valuable. Here though, it was meaningless. There were supposedly monsters, gods, and other mythical beings roaming around the earth. Plights of normal people didn't interest him too much.
He did keep track of major events, important people and companies though. Such as Dare Enterprises, recently their company value has skyrocketed meaning they have more influence in the business world.
"Are you excited for tonight?" his mother asked as she glanced at him while driving. Indra looked at her confused. Was there something important today that he forgot about? He didn't usually forget things.
The lack of response caused his mom to laugh. "Did you forget silly? It's your birthday!" she exclaimed. Indra's eyes widened. He had been too concerned about other things he hadn't payed attention to the date. It was the second of September, 2001. Exactly eight years after his rebirth.
"What are we gonna do?" Indra asked, evading her question.
"I was thinking, since it's your birthday and all, we could visit to that military museum you've been wanting to go to." his mother replied. Indra's interest was peaked. He had seen an advertisement of it on the television and wanted to check it out.
He may have lost interest in some of the more mortal things of the world but the wars and weapons technology were fascinating. These people never had chakra but have created weapons that have more firepower than an jounin level ninja.
Then there was nuclear weapons. They caused damage on a scale comparable to a tailed beast except they have the added effect of leaving the land poisoned with radiation. He was eager to see some of these weapons close up. It was one thing to read about these things, but you have to see it yourself to truly understand. Plus, he needs to investigate wether the gods have anything to do with the wars.
Minutes later, they arrived at their house and parked in the driveway. It was a hot sunny day out with a slight breeze carrying a trace of falls chill.
Indra and his mother walked together and into their house. He stretched his neck as he set his backpack on the floor near the door.
About a half hour later, after his mother had changed from work clothes into casual wear and they had a snack they left again for the museum.
The museum was an interesting place. Even just on their way to get a parking spot there was a large field filled with World War II tanks, artillery, and even a few planes scattered around. It was an interesting sight to see.
Before his death in the elemental nations, Sasuke had seen some of the advances of technology seen in this world begin to make headway but it was a different process. Humans here didn't have chakra to control, power machines, or save themselves if something disastrous happened during tests. They only had their own hands to work with.
Walking into the museum was an experience as well. Besides a front desk, the museum was designed in a shape of an upside down T. To the left, there was a large room filled with items from the Civil War. To the right the room was filled with miniature figures and buildings that recreated old war zones or forts. Straight back beyond the desk on either side stood large open doorways that led to the largest section if the museum, World Wars.
Over the next hour he spent his time reading anything and everything that caught his interest. There were so many stories about the past and information about past wars. Not long after he finished reading about Pearl Harbor an old man came up to him.
"Enjoying the museum son?"
"Hn." he so eloquently replied.
If you have any questions you can ask me. I actually served on one of the carriers during world war two. The USS Enterprise. A beauty that one." the old sailor told him. Indra raised an eyebrow in suprise. Back in the elemental nations, most war veterans didn't live to see forty. Seeing someone that lived out their life after one in peace was a welcome change.
"Tell me about it."
[~~~~~~~~~~]
After spending a few too many hours at the museum and eating out for dinner, they finally returned home. It was nighttime and the sun was letting out its last traces of light on the horizon.
Indra was tired from all the activity throughout the day. When he was a shinobi he was expected to stay up for multiple days at a time if needed but now that he was a child again, it would be detrimental to his growth if he didn't listen to his bodies needs.
Saying goodnight to his mother, he pushed his teeth and changed into a pair of dark blue and black pajamas and got into bed.
Indra's mind was sorting through everything he had learnt at the museum. The brutality of this world surprised him. The peace that was created here was formed on a mountain of corpses numbering in the millions. He wondered if a similar conflict on this scale would have happened in the elemental nations if Naruto wasn't there to stop him and keep peace throughout the world.
He also had some new ideas for utilizing his powers in a combat situation. The most prominent on his mind being an attack similar to armor piercing bullets. The idea was simple but it would require a great amount of control to pull off.
To create it he would first have to make bullet sized projections made out of condensed wind with a point. Easy enough but that's the easiest it would get. The next step would be to make it hollow and fill the inside with a small bolt of condensed electricity. Then, if fired effectively then it would not only pierce through an object or opponent but if he willed it he could dissipate the air while the projectile is in something and release the condensed electricity causing an explosion that would be amplified by the scattering winds.
As Indra pondered more over the training necessary to pull the move off he drifted off into a deep sleep.

Nearby
It was an hour past midnight and the moon was a full, casting its glow onto the pavement. Around twenty deer or so are crossing a street near Indra's home. At least, that's what a normal person would see. The reality is quite different. Instead of deer, stood twenty horrendous monsters all searching for their single and most prized delicacy, demigod.
"Thisss better be worth it!"
"It will be. The power of this god-ling, it must be a child of one if the elder godsss." The Scythian Dracaena that Indra had killed two years ago had returned with a vengeance. The difference this time is that it also brought other monsters to hunt. Dracaena, hellhounds, and even two lastragonian giants were there.
The monsters became silent as they neared Indra's house. While confident that they could defeat the young demigod no monster wanted to die and reform in tartarus. Surrounding the quiet home, the hellhounds began to sniff. Under normal circumstances, any monster within a five mile radius would easily be able to sense Indra due to him knowing about the gods and his power, but, for some reason unknown to the monsters it was incredibly hard to sense him. It wasn't impossible but it was like trying to find a newborn demigod of a minor god in a crowd of mortals. The scent was almost non-existent.
One of the hellhounds let out a small yip, notifying the others that it found the location of Indra. Their plan was to use the lastragonian giants to break the wall where Indra was sleeping and pour in while others surrounded the building in case he tried to escape. The giants neared the wall and every thing was silent.
Both giants bent their knees and got into a stance similar to a football player and barreled towards the house. With a loud crash the walls caved in and dust rose up in the dark room.

With Indra
Indra was dreaming.
It was a peaceful scenery, he was Sasuke again, sitting atop the hokage monument looking down upon Konohagakure Village. The wind was lazy and relaxing while the sun was soaking into his dark clothing keeping him warm. He took a deep breath of the fresh spring air. The air shifted to his left and Naruto appeared next to him.
"So this is where you were Sasuke."
"Hn." Looks like the peace was gone.
"Are you ignoring me teme?"
"Shut it dobe." Looks like he wasn't getting out of this one.
"Ya know Sasuke, since you're here and all, you should visit Sakura-chan. You know she misses you. You've been gone for a few years now." He knew that already. After his travels with her and the birth of his daughter, he hadn't seen her since. His mission to search Kaguya's dimensions along with S-rank missions had kept him away from the village. Not that he had tried to go back much either. If he didn't loose track of time, Sarada should be 5 now. That was two years of his daughters life he missed.
"You become a jounin yet?" Sasuke asked changing the subject. Naruto's face turned into a frown. Looks like the distraction worked.
"No"
"You know at this rate you'll never become hokage."
"Oi, I don't want to hear that from you! You don't even qualify as a genin 'ttebayo!" Naruto fumed.
"Better than having a reputation as the eternal genin" Sasuke shot back, a smirk on his lips. Naruto abruptly stood up and marched over in front of him.
Before Sasuke could hear a response the scene shifted.
Now he was in the konoha academy, in front of a bunch of young children with Iruka at his side. Sasuke had been dragged into a competition with Naruto on who could eat the most ramen. Unfortunately for him, he lost. His loss meant he also lost the bet that he made beforehand and had to teach a lesson at the academy. Right now, Sasuke wanted to be anywhere but there.
On the bright side-if there was one, was that the class he would be teaching was shuriken throwing. Naruto argued that since he was an Uchiha and was the "supreme uncool master at it" because of his knowledge in Uchiha style shuriken jutsu, he needed to teach it.
Time passed in an instant and it was already end of the lesson. He had somehow gotten most of the fledgling shinobi to how a kunai and shuriken right and throw it in the proper stance. Sasuke let out a sigh of relief. He was never going to have a ramen eating bet with Naruto again after this.
As he was brooding, a brilliant idea crossed his mind. While he had to leave Konoha again tomorrow morning, the next time he was in the village for an extended period he would challenge Naruto to a tomato eating contest. That was a much better idea than ramen will ever be.
"Thank you so much for your time Sasuke. You somehow managed to teach my students something that would have taken me a week in a few hours. I'm impressed." Iruka complimented walking to his side. He could visibly see the tension release from his shoulders. Teaching superhuman children for over a decade seemed to take a toll.
"Hn, If you need it, I could give you a scroll on some shuriken techniques to for you to teach them. Nothing too advanced, just some that were often taught to Uchiha youth." Sasuke replied. He watched as the children left the field and back into the classroom.
Iruka had a look of shock on his face, "Are you sure Sasuke? They're clan techniques."
"They were collecting dust anyways." Ending the conversation, Sasuke prepared the body flicker technique to leave but a hand caught on his cloak. Looking to the source of the disturbance, Sasuke saw a peculiar sight. It was a girl, but not an academy student. She was about fourteen-ish maybe fifteen, with electric blue eyes, spiked hair, and goth style clothing.
"Did you need something?" Sasuke asks.
"Wake up." she says in a monotone voice.
"What?" he asks, getting more confused by the second. What did she mean wake up?
"Indra, you need to wake up now!"
[~~~~~~~~~~]
Indra startle awake with a gasp. He looks to the window just in time to see a large being charge at it. Instincts taking over and he swiftly leaps out of bed and against the wall next to the door and rolls to the left as a large piece of wood rushes past where his head was. Drywall and dust swirled around the room like an explosion, lowering his visibility and making it harder to breath. Not even a second later, a second crash is heard parallel to the last one as another massive being barges through the wall. Indra catches a glimpse of what seems to be a giant human, at least eight feet tall, smash his bed with its fist, before running out of his room. He needed to see if his mother was alright.
Darting down the hall towards his mother's room as fast as his legs can take him he stops just as her bedroom door opens. Haya(check) looks down at him, panic in her eyes. Her hair messily knotted up on her shoulders.
"Indra, are alright? What was that noise?" she franticly asks, kneeling down to his level and placing her hands on his shoulders.
"Monsters." is all he replies. He didn't have time to worry about wether she knew what they were, if she believed him, or how he knew what they were. Her safety was his top priority. There was no chance in hell he was loosing his second family. Haya's eyes grew wide and a soft gasp left her lips. Quickly rising up as she heard another crash down the hall, she dragged Indra into her room and locked the door.
"Kaa-san, we have to leave, now!" Indra pressured.
Not without my necklace! It's important!" she replied as she snatched it off her bedside table and settled it around her neck. What was the point of a necklace when they were being attacked by monsters. Curious, but also in a hurry, he looked at it as she was finishing putting it on. The necklace had a gold and black thread with sea foam colored beads and two faded purple magatama's situated between them. It was obviously missing several pieces and looked ancient to the eye.
"Now we can leave." Indra was going to respond but a bang sounded against the bedroom door. Both of them turned their heads to see a lanky scaled arm with hideous long nails splinter a hole through the door. 'Great, not only giants were after them but also Scythian Dracaena.' Indra thought sarcastically. They were at a disadvantage in the room. While it wasn't small per-say, there still wasn't enough room for Indra to utilize the full extent of his powers.
Raising his arms towards the door, palms facing forward, Indra concentrated and prepared to attack. His blue eyes became stormy and sparks lit up along his body and between his fingers. As the door finally broke down and the serpents ugly face came into view, Indra fired off a bolt of lightning from his palms, the lightning flashed across the room lighting it up in a blue glow before it made contact with the dracaena, vaporizing it instantly.
Seeing that the doorway was clear, he ran to the entrance and looked to his right to see several more monsters flooding the hallway. Whipping his arm towards them in a slapping motion, a large gust of wind ripped through the hallway tearing up floorboards and launching the monsters several yards back to the end of the hallway.
Finally having a few seconds of breathing room, Indra turned back into the bedroom and saw that his mother had moved her bed to the side and was opening up what seemed to be a trapdoor. "Indra, hurry! Down here." she shouted. Taking one look back to see that the monsters were getting up and one of the giants was closing in, he heeded his mothers words and started to head down the ladder that the trap door was hiding.
Once he was down he called for his mom to come down as well. Nodding, he was her close the trapdoor over her head and slide down the railing like a firefighter.
"Kaa-san what is place?" Indra asked. Normal homes had a basement or even a tornado or bomb shelter if they were older, but never what looked to be a wide, long tunnel going well beyond their yard boundaries. The tunnel was lit with florescent bar lights that were hung on the ceiling every few feet.
"It was made By your father as an escape route in case something like a monster attack happened."
'His father? So Zeus made this.' This was the first time Indra had actually heard about his father without an evasive answer. Despite never being a presence in their life it seemed he still but some effort in caring for them.
As they ran down the underground hallway, they heard a booming voice from behind them. "Found you, little demigod!" The monsters found their way down to them.
Quickening their paces, for the next minute all Indra could hear was the sound of their breaths and feet tapping against the concrete floor. That, and the quaking footsteps following behind them.
"The exit is just up ahead." Haya called out. Indra looked around but all he saw was a dead end.
"Where?" he questioned in a hurried tone. He wasn't confident about facing so many monsters. His powers muted the longer they were underground.
Instead of answering, his mother felt around the concrete wall, searching for something. "Found it." she cheers quietly. Pressing a spot on the wall, a lightning bolt symbol appears where her hand was and glows. The wall crumbles into nothing and the dirt behind it rolls back and parts away revealing the outside world.
'Reminds me or Orochimaru's hideouts.' Indra thought. His mother grabbed his hand to bring him the rest of the way out. As they took their first steps a growl was heard. Instinct took over and Indra pulled him mom back as the ground above them caved in and one of the giants crashed down in front of them. Its ugly face marring a savage grin.
With the sky visible and the full moon shedding its light on the earth, Indra could see multiple more monsters behind the giant. Scanning his surroundings, he made out seven dracaena and what looked to be two massive black mastiff dogs with red eyes.
Those must be hellhounds' Indra had read about them in the greek books he studied but had never seen what they looked like in real life.
He and his mom began backtracking into the tunnel behind them when a slithering noise echoed. The monsters that were following them in the tunnel caught up.
Surrounded on both sides, Indra held his arms out in both directions as lighting arced off him. He sent two blasts of lighting from his hands at the giants on either side. Both let out a groan but were seemingly unharmed.
'Dammit, they're tough.' He was about to attack again when a familiar voice sounded from outside.
"Looksss like we meet again, demigod!" It was the same Dracaena he had fought when he was six. "You gave me these hideousss burnsss last time, It's time I return the favor." The snake-woman hissed, gesturing to the burn marks that were shocked into her neck.
"Collapssse the tunnel on them. You can have the body once he's dead!" she commanded. Indra and Haya's eyes widened as both of the giants simultaneously began to pound their fists against the walls supporting the ground above them. The concrete began to crack and the ground shook.
Less than a second passed and the ceiling began caving in on them. "Kaa-san!" Indra cried out. He felt powerless. Just like when his clan was massacred in his past life. Forced to witness the deaths of those close to him.
As the concrete overhead cracked and fell, Haya reached to the ground and scooped up a sharp rock. Bringing it up to her hand, she slicked her palm open and gripped her necklace.
The serpent and her followers watched as the earth caved on their prize and buried them alive. She felt a rush as she heard the boy cry out. This, this is what she envisioned as she crawled out of tartarus.
The monsters waited in anticipation as the dust settled. Those that were in the tunnel got out unharmed as they were outside the danger zone. One of the hellhounds jumped down to the collapsed area to sniff out the bodies. Its nose close to the ground, it stood on the center of the wreckage and froze.
From beneath its paws, the ground began to shift and a purple light shone from the cracks in the ground. It let out a startled yelp as the earth beneath it exploded up creating a plume of dust to block the monsters line of sight.
As the hellhound recovered it looked up to see a massive purple ribcage. The dust billowing in the wind around it enhanced the purple making it look ethereal. Before it could even react, a skeletal arm swept out of nowhere and picked up the hound bringing it several feel in the air. A squelch was heard and the hellhound let out a shreik as its bones were crushed and organs ruptured. The arm then swung the dead hellhound at a dracaena in the distance instantly killing it. Both monsters disappeared in a cloud of gold dust.
'Susano'o?!' Indra was in a confused awe as he looked at the purple ribcage surround him and his mother. Turning his head to her, he saw that she was panting hard with blood leaking from her nostrils. She moved her pajama sleeve to her face and smeared the blood. She then looked down to Indra and grinned.
"I told you the necklace was important." Indra's mind was in turmoil. His mother's necklace somehow allowed her to wield the power of susano'o without chakra. All the coincidences that were piling up were starting to come to him at once.. Being reborn into a different world with power over lightning, given the name of his ancestors name in the elemental nations, and now this. It was like everything was set up by fate for this to happen.
Haya turned her attention back to the monsters she scowled. The power of susano'o wasn't made to be used by a mortal. The strain on her body was immense. It was like someone was taking a hot knife and slicing every cell in her body at once. If she didn't have her son to protect she would have fainted immediately.
"Indra, listen to me. I know you have questions, but right now isn't the time. We need to deal with these monsters first. I don't know when you learned about your powers, but I need you use them. Focus on the dracaena while I deal with the other bastards!" Indra's eyes widened for a moment before nodding. She was right, not that she needed to tell him. He was more shocked that she swore. He'd never heard her say a bad word in his life.
"Kaa-san, let me make something to help you." Indra called. Bringing his hand to touch the susano'o ribcage, he concentrated on pouring his power into it.
Haya watched as wind began to swirl around them and lighting began to form in the hand of the susano'o. The sparks slowly expanded in size and strength until it held a massive bolt in its hand. The raw power held within it occasionally flashing out and scorching the ground.
Indra pulled away from the ribcage and stumbled. If he was guessing right, he used more than half his power in that lightning bolt and was using more to maintain its shape and form from a distance.
"It will only last a few minutes but it will make fighting these monsters easier." he said between pants.
"Well I'll be damned. You were right Zeus, your child really did inherit your power." she whispered to herself. Sensing that if they waited much longer they would loose, the monsters began to close on as the dust settled. "I'm gonna attack now, promise me you won't get hurt." She said out loud.
"Hn, only if you do the same." Indra quipped back. Smiling Haya, began to walk forward, towards the giant that was closest. Leaving the protection of susano'o, Indra called upon his power again, forming a lightning blade in each hand as he readied himself. As if queuing it as a sign to attack, all hell broke loose.
Indra rushed ahead at superhuman speeds and slashed out with his hands killing the monster in front of him. Two more closed in from his sides. He swiped at one causing it ti back up while he jumped on the other one, slicing its neck as he used it as a springboard, flipping through the air and stabbing the other through its chest. As more and more neared, he fell into the flow of battle, weaving and dodging between scaled claws and killing when he had an opening.
On his mother's side, another massacre was occurring. She killed both the giants with ease, using the lightning bolt as a spear. She stabbed the both of them in quick succession causing them to explode from the sheer divine power that entered them. The remaining hellhound from the duo earlier had somehow summoned more hellhounds through its shadow and she was busy dealing with them.
Every time they tried to attack her the susano'o blocked the attacks and in some cases broke their teeth and claws. Even though Haya was invulnerable to attacks and could kill a hellhound in one blow, she was tiring faster than she could attack.
Every moment caused the pain coursing through her body to increase. Her nose was dripping blood outer her body and even her other orphaces started to leak blood. Her eyes were getting blurry from the blood and she could barley hear over the headache pounding on her skull.
She gasped for air as another two hellhounds pounced at her. The force if the impact knocked her off her feet and she fell onto her back. She recovered through sheer adrenaline and stabbed both the hellhounds gnawing on the susano'o. Finally having some room to breath, she looked around to see that all the hellhounds were gone.
With no monster near her she looked towards Indra and watched as he cut down the last dracaena. She was about to deactivate susano'o when she saw a hellhound appear out of nowhere and bounce at Indra from behind him.
Horror crossed her face as she cried out. "INDRA BEHIND YOU!"
Indra turned just in time to duck under the mutt and roll out of the way. 'Shit, I couldn't even sense it through the wind. Where did it come from." he wondered to himself. He brought his arms up to summon more lightning when an intense feeling of vertigo over came him. He stumbled to the ground. He had exhausted all his power on the last dracaena.
He could do nothing but sit there and wait as the hellhound growled and ran at him. Trying to muster up any power that remained he felt the lightning bolt he lent to his mother come flying toward him at a high velocity.
He smirked, then jumped, twisting in the air so his body was parallel with the earth below and watched in slow motion as the massive bolt passed below him. Sparks of lightning arced off it connecting with the ground like one of those static electricity globes that you buy at stores.
Through the corner of his eye he saw the susano'o his mother was using dissipate with its arm outstretched in a throwing motion. 'Thanks, kaa-san.'
The massive blot impacted against the hounds chest and exploded with a massive shockwave knocking Indra through the air towards his mom. He landed in her arms as she cushioned his fall. Both watched as the lightning expanded outward from the hound and created a massive crater over twenty feet in diameter.
Both mother and son hugged each other as gold dust flowed around them in the wind reflecting moonlight like a prism.
"So kaa-san, probably still not a good time, but would you tell me who dad was. Who he really was." Indra asked. It was silent for a bit. He quietly listened to his mother's heartbeat as he waited.
"I was hoping to tell you when you were older but it seems I was wrong to do so." his mother told him in a soft voice. "Indra Arakawa, you are a demigod. A child born from a mortal and a God. You are the son of Zeus, the King of Olympus."
Thunder boomed in the sky as clouds gathered above them in a swirling storm of chaos. Above Indra's head, a glowing symbol appeared. They both peered up to see a lightning bolt, the symbol of Zeus.

The hall of the gods was in turmoil. Shouting filled the air and arguing filled the room. All of the gods knew what just happened. What should never have happened. Zeus had just claimed a child.
The creaking of doors opening caused the gods to quiet. The looked to the door and saw Hera, queen of the gods standing there. A furious look on her face. The ground began to rumble and the divine power leaking from her caused the whole of Olympus to feel her anger.
"ZEUS!"

Extra: Richard and his Grandparents.
~~~~~
Richard had just returned home from school. After barley catching the bus because of Indra, he was excited to tell his grandparents about his new friend he made.
He moved in with his grandparents and his parents died in an accident. Since then, he always felt he was a burden to them.
"Grandma! Grandpa! I'm home!" he yelled. He dropped his backpack and ran to the kitchen to get some food.
As he opened the cupboard to get some fruit-snacks his grandma stopped him. "Rick, remember, no snacks until your homework is finished.
Richard looked to his grandma with a megawatt smile. "Grandma, guess what," not waiting for an answer he continued, "remember the kid in my class I told you about? The one that skipped grades. Today he hung out with me and helped me with my homework so I'm all finished already!"
His grandma gasped and smiled. "What a nice young man. You thanked him for helping you right?"
"Yeah, he even taught me how to do the parts I didn't understand."
"Hmm, we should invite him over for some cookies. Would that be nice?" she queries.
Richard nodded his head, not knowing that that would be the last time he saw Indra for many years.

End of Chapter
Sorry for the long wait. I had some writers block. I jumped into creating this without much of a plan. Luckily, over the past two months I've planned out a bunch of cool stuff that will hopefully be worth the wait for future chapters!
Have a great day everyone and stay safe!
