In Dr. Doofemsmirtz's lab
"So, who is this weird man" Darth Julian snickered. Frozen in a beam of light was a man with pale light skin, with long red line tatoos along his exposed chest to the right side. A armored piece of gold was on his shoulder, with a loincloth and large winged sandals as his only clothing. He had a rough black beard, and looked muscular, and at the same time fearsome and tortured.
"This, is the legendary hero Kratos, the slayer of the gods. I am a fan of his actually, yet he's a hero, as the gods he thought were either evil to start, or possessed by the evils of Pandora's box." Doofemsmirtz admitted.
"So, what.... How do you slay a god, like there like the sky spirits...."
"Its his weapons, he comes from, no, came from, a world that had weapons that could slay a god, and he did that, a lot. And this is where it can be used to our advantage"
"Uh, how. Since we destroyed his world, won't he be angry, and kill us!"
"No, this is why I created the mind hypno inator!" he showed a bunch of spirling glasses, and a chip in his ear.
"It will change what he sees, and I will use him to destroy the gem gods, and Zeus, but then I will have him leave the rest of the gods alone. Only problem, I have to be on the same world he is in"
"Huh? Call me crazy, and if you do, I blast you, but isn't Zeus a lesser problem. He's one of the gods lobbying for his world to stay out of the conflict; why not a advocate for fighting against us, like Poseidon or Artemis?"
"I can explain that in a back story. See, long ago I was exploring in the wilderness of Greece, when I was caught in a storm. The only thing around me, was a sight of 13 huge statues; of the 12 main gods, as well as Hades. And they stood firm, and blocked the wind, the freezing wind. But then, the Zeus statue crushed me, and I was in the hospital for a week. For that, I shall use Kratos to destroy Zeus!"
"Okay, but when this plan of yours goes horribly wrong, the king, who was once me, will be waiting"
Later
Kratos woke up in a thin forest (The appalachian foothills), confused. He was about to fight Zeus, when it all went blank. Then Dr. D's mind inator kicked in.
Static (False memory)
Kratos was fighting Zeus, when Zeus said something.
"Think your the only one who can take power from the fates" he held a few pieces of string. "Warping powers, I activate you!" the entire world was covered in light.
Static
"Zeus, he thinks he can hide with the strings of fate, well he's wrong. I have fought, and sacrificed, nothing he can do will stop me" he got up, as a trio of Satyr's walked in the woods in eyesight of him.
"So, I heard that a new enchilada place opened up" one was saying.
"Oh, and eco freindly too"
Kratos's vision of the world changed again. The half goat, half men started to appear bigger, and more demonic. The pipes they carried changed into giant spears.
"Zeus thinks those can stop me" he huffed, taking out the golden viened chain blades, the blades of exile. He charged.
"BEEHHHH!!!!"
Later
"What sort of evil, is this" Artemis was leaning against a tree, as was Thalia. Grover was panicing, and Nico was examing the bodies of three maimed and dead Satyrs.
"They are dead, blade marks" Nico commented. "Didn't last a minute"
"But, something's wrong" Grover beyed like a goat. "Satyrs dissolve into seedlings when they die, I should know, I was one, but they didn't!"
"It is strange" Artemis commented. "I've never seen anything like this, with Satyr's or any other "mythological" creature"
"And it was overcast, Apollo didn't see a thing" Thalia shook her head.
"We should see if we can find whoever did this, and make him pay. BEHHHH!" Grover charged into the woods.
"Uh grover, we're the trackers here" Thalia and Artemis nodded, as the hunter god continued "Your going the wrong way"
"Oh, charge!" and he ran the right way this time.
"Nico, get Percy, Annabeth, Clarisse and Bianca, the rest of us will make sure Grover doesn't get killed" Thalia ordered.
"Uh, Thalia, you know its impossible for a god to...."
"My lady, you do know that gods and monsters can fade, Medusa's sisters, Pan, Selene, Helios, and after those Satyr's, I'm not taking any chances" and the hunters pursued the speeding goat.
Meanwhile
Ares and Aphrodite were on a date, and making out, in the middle of a forest clearing, when Kratos burst into it. He tensed, and growled loudly.
"ARES!" the two jumped.
"Do I know you, punk?" Ares asked.
"YOU MONSTER. YOU RUINED MY LIFE, DESTROYED MY FAMILY. ZEUS THINKS YOUR IMAGE CAN TORMENT ME, BUT HE'S WRONG. NOW, I CAN KILL YOU FOR A SECOND TIME!"
"Punk, your asking for it!" Ares sunglasses melted off in anger. "And spouting gibirish doesn't change anything"
Static (false words)
"I'm back Kratos. So, how's your family, murduerer?"
End messed up words
Aphrodite vanished, as he summoned a giant machine gun. Kratos got out his Blades of Exile. The two charged at each other.
Back to the pursuers
The group, now bolstered with the additional heroes, had found their way into the clearing, to find all the trees hacked down, in a 100 yard radius. Entire rocks the size of plasma TV's were sliced through.
"The wild, BLAHHH" Grover cried. Then, they noticed something in the water. It was Ares.
"No, DAD" Clarisse shook her father. His glasses were melted off, and his jacket had at least 2 dozen rips in it. A scar, like an X, covered his face. He shook himself awake, and barely was able to stand.
"Uh, that guy, he, was something else" he stumbled, before his half sister Artemis helped him back up.
"He, seemed to hate me, for ruining his life and family. But, I keep track of all those I ruin, and he's not on the list, and its a long one. And he said, Zeus thinks your image, can torment me, but he's wrong. Now, I can kill you for a second time"
"That's strange, its as if this stranger has something against Zeus" Annabeth surmised.
"Appears so" Bianca said in awe. "But, even Zeus couldn't fight a god, to near death. Ares is a wreck!"
"I heard that kid!" he said weakly. It was then, that they turned. Floating before them was a faintly green, ghost like being, with a strangely familiar atmosphere around her.
"Uh, who are you?" Percy said simply.
"You already know who I am, you just don't know me" the ghost said. Percy rolled his eyes.
"Please, no riddles"
"Fine, let me tell you the story. Kratos, the man you are hunting, is a demi god, from another world. However, that world, was destroyed. A son of Zeus, to be precise"
"Wait, there are other worlds with greek gods on them?" Nico said confused.
"Correct, son of hades" the ghost noted. "Kratos was once a spartan general, but he once was about to be killed by barbarians. He prayed to Ares for help, and Ares saved him, but in doing so, Kratos was made his slave. He was forced to do horrid things, including killing his own family" they all stared at Ares.
"Remind me to give that Ares a handshake, that's impressive"
"Ignoring that, he then went into 10 years of service to the gods, to make up for what he did. But during that time, he killed Persephone to save the world. Then, Ares attacked Athens, and I sent Kratos to defeat him with the powers hidden in Pandora's box, where he killed Ares."
"Okay, not nice" Ares commented.
"After that, he and his father, Zeus had a little, disagreement, and he was sent to the underworld, then he escaped and took over the threads of faith, trapping the fates in time in doing so. Then with the threads, he brought the titans back, but not before he tried to kill Zeus, and nearly succeeded, but I took the blade for my father" the ghost shrugged. "Which would explain why I'm a ghost. Then, he and the titans attacked Olympus. where he killed Poseidon, causing the world to flood nearly everywhere"
"Gulp"
"And then, Zeus sheered him off the mountain top, where the titans betrayed him and sent him back to the underworld. While there, he killed Hades, before returning and killed a few titans, and Helios, plunging the world into a darkness unlike anything before. Then, he battled Hermes, Hephaestus, Hera and Hercules, and I'll leave it to you to guess how that ended. Then, the world was destroyed right before he fought Zeus"
"Where were Thomas and his group then?!" Nico asked.
"If you mean the red head vampire, the man with the two strange swords and the boy whose head resembles a urn, they got held up by the titans Hyperion and Oceanus"
"Titans" Artemis huffed
"Agreed" the ghost commented
"And, who are you, anyway?" Annabeth brought herself to ask. The ghost smiled
"I am my worlds version of Athena"
"WHAT!"
"But anyway, there is a problem. This strange man, with an annoying accent, a hunched back and hair resembling a wild bush; did something to his mind. He thinks he's still on his world, and is out to kill Zeus, and any god that gets in his way. I can't stop him as a ghost, you need to break the mans control over him"
"Sounds like Doofemsmirtz, okay I'll go and stall, you guys go and kick the heck out of him" Percy declared.
"Percy, he's too strong" Bianca said gravely. "He'll destroy you!"
"Uh, curse of achilles!"
"Percy, I doubt that if he can nearly kill a god, and that's when I had to do a little trick of the light to hide myself, he'll skin you alive, actually, be free to go and fight him. I'll bring popcorn" he coughed.
"No, your going home, for some R and R, Grover if you would" Grover seemed happy to get far away from the fight.
"Well, uh, thanks ghost Athena.... Where did you go?" the ghost was gone
Later
"Hey Kratos" a voice said behind the dangerous spartan demi god. He turned, to see Percy with Riptide ready. They were on the side of another lake, the one created when Hepheastus crashed during their battle with Typhon
"Whoever you are, step aside or you will suffer"
"Sorry, but I'm not going to, see I'm here to stop you, from doing something your regret. Plus, I believe you did something to my father?"
"So, your a son of Poseidon" Kratos smiled cruely. "If your here to stop me from getting to Zeus, you have another thing comming"
"Stopping you, is what I intend to do!" Percy pointed his sword at Kratos.
"Well, its your funeral. Like father died, so shall son!"
Meanwhile
"Yes, its working perfectly. Soon, Percy Jackson will be no more!" Dr. Doofemsmirtz laughed.
"Well, thank you for revealing your plans" Annabeth said appearing in a burst of fire.
"Ah, Annabeth Chase, your timing is impecible, and of course, predictable!" he snapped his finger, and a cage made of Celestial Bronze rose from the ground. She tried to use her knife to cut it, but it flew out of her hands.
"Yes, nothing like a cage and a magnet, eh Owl head" he had her knife on a magnet, and put it in his pocket. "I see your just in time, to watch your boyfriend perish" he took a drachma from his pocket.
"Go, Iris inator!" he tossed the coin and placed it in some sort of television. It turned on, showing Riptide clashing with a large blue blade Kratos was using.
"Lovely weapon, that's the mighty blade of Olympus. Remind me to make a replica of it" he had some popcorn, and was eating loudly. Percy dropped back from the blade meet and sent a blast of water into Kratos. He sliced the water stream in half, before he took a bow from his back, and fired flaming arrows, which struck the trees around them, setting them ablaze!
"You know, I really starting to love this guy, I should clone him!" he stopped rambling for a minute "Wait, if your here, where are the others...." it was then that a blast of lightning flew at him. Bending limbo style, he barely avoiding being fried by Thalia, and the Di Angelo's were behind her. Clarisse popped into existence from a pillar of flames, right next to a refrigerator. Water trickled out from the fridge, as did some sort of yellowish liquid.
"NO, MY CHEESE WAS IN THERE!" he yelled, before he snapped his fingers. A cage formed around each of the gem gods, locking them away.
"For that, your paying the price, all of you!"
"Check this Julian, I did catch 5 heroes, in one day. Pay up" he boasted to the hiding lemur.
"Uh, as a king, I leave it to my loyal subjects to pay up"
"Okay then, if that's how you want to do it..." he used another magnet to grab Thalia's spear, and tossed it, hitting the branch. The Lemur fell down, and started wailing.
"Okay okay, here" he handed the german mad scientist a wad of 100's.
"Good" he smiled, as he sent a ripple of motion along the collected dollars. "You know, its not like you 5 are really that much anyway"
"And what's that supposed to mean!" Clarisse shook the bars harshly, shaking the cage and leaving marks in the metal.
"I was there, on the world, when the gems reacted" he smiled. "I studied the energy released, and I found many things. For one thing, your powers barely increased, and if it wasn't for that little warping in flames and well, immortality, thing you do, you're pretty much the same as before." he smiled wickedly "Its almost like a ripoff!"
"Hey, at least we haven't gotten too cocky, like Zeus may be, or like you!" Nico huffed. Ignoring the loud crack of thunder in the distance, he stomped his foot. Rising up were legions of zombies!
"AH!" Dr Doofemsmirtz ran, his arms flailing, as did Darth Julian, but then Artemis and the hunters appeared to intercept him. He skidded to a halt.
"Oh come on!" he was surrounded by hunters and zombies!
"You will attack the hunters" Darth Julian told the zombies, they ignored him.
"Uh, those zombies don't have minds to be manipulated, my friend"
"Well, lets run!" they both vanished in a dark portal.
"I see that this went well, nice distracting him" Artemis nodded. The gem gods grinned, and easily broke the cages apart.
"He was so fooled!" Bianca laughed.
"He's a moron" Clarisse snorted in laughter
"I mean, even Seaweed brain could have seen..., PERCY!" they paniced, as they hadn't shut the machine down!
Meanwhile
Kratos had Percy knocked down, and then lowered the sword for the finishing blow. Determined, Percy blocked it, and sent a wave over them. The massive body of water took Kratos by surprise, as Percy submerged and began to regain some of his energy. Kratos then became visible, and started swimming like a maniac towards him, with blood lust.
"Oh come on" Percy thought to himself before he sent a current straight at Kratos. The current blew the spartan warrior back, but not bwefore he sunk both of his blades of Exile into the ground, anchoring him. He then took the blade of Olympus in his mouth, and spat it. The blade flew through the current, and just missed Percy by an inch. The water cleared away, as the two stood face to face.
"I must admit, your skilled, but the end will be the same as your fathers" he changed his weapons again. Now they were giant metal lion heads, the Cestus.
"Prepare!" he leapt straight at Percy. Percy jumped back from the attack, and the fists left craters in the earth! Kratos lumbered towards Percy, before he stopped, and fell to the ground.
"Uh, hello, Kratos" Percy waved his hand in front of the stunned man's face. He growled, and Percy jumped back. The man pushed himself up, and stared at Percy.
"What, just happened. Tell me son of Posiedon!" he had the blade of Olympus again, and it was a bit too close to Percy! Then something in Percy's pocket glowed.
"Let me explain, Kratos" it was a green stone
"Athena!?"
A while later
"Thank you, Percy" Kratos said from up top of Olympus. Athena, his one, had explained everything that happened to him. Of course, he didn't apolgize to Ares.
"Sure, your not going to try to kill me again, right?"
"Not at all" Kratos smiled. "I have other buisness, like making those heartless pay the price for what they did to my world!" he had both of his blades of Exile, and all his other weapons, ready. Then from the cliff, he jumped!
"Kratos!" Percy yelled as he flew straight down from the top of Olympus, and about 600+ stories of the empire state building! He flipped mid air, and landed upright on a building top, where some soldier heartless were hidden. He sliced them in half ,before charging along more roofs, slicing more heartless. He was vicious, bloodfirsty, yet Percy had to say something.
"That's the happiest I've seen him yet!"
