"Lord Cronus its been a while since I've seen you." I bowed.
"And yet it was not you who upheld our deal. I am highly hesitant to give this back to you especially since you were sloppy." The man now identified as The titan king Cronus said.
"Give what back my lord?" I asked.
In response the titan waved his hand and my bike appeared in the same condition it was in before it crashed."
"Oh gods, thank you!" I gasped.
"AH AH!" Cronus held up a finger stopping me.
"Me giving this back to you comes with a caveat." Cronus stated.
"What would that be?" I asked.
"Give your family a chance." The titan said.
My familys jaws dropped…
"The deity who ate his own kids is saying to give us a shot?" John asked skeptically.
"Trust me John Winchester I made a lot of mistakes back in the day, more then I care to admit. But I have long since atoned for them and these days my kids and I are on good terms." Cronus said.
I scoffed at that..
"Okay we don't want to kill each other on sight anymore better?" Cronus snapped.
"My point is You're family. They arent supposed to hold your hand twenty four seven but to have your back when you need it, and this past hunt proved that!" Cronus said.
"My brother held a gun to my head!" I protested.
"Okay and my son sliced me to pieces forcing me to a painful reforming in tartarus so I think I had it worse kiddo!" Cronus shot back.
"Hes got you their Aiden." Sam chuckled.
"Not to mention if you don't take my deal I leave the bike here but I will no longer be your patron god and I will make damn sure Hecate isn't either. So whats it gonna be?" Cronus threatened.
"I'll give them a chance." I conceded.
"Good, guess you can be smart." Cronus remarked.
The titan lord turned to my father and brothers "Don't think this gives you three a free pass. Adrians not a normal kid. Truthfully hes been through hell and back in more ways then one."
Turning back to me he said "Good luck kid!" Before flashing out…
"So that was Cronus? Dean asked.
"Yeah that was him alright." I confirmed.
"Hes uh different then the myths portray him." Sam said.
"I know. A lot of the pagans are. Time hasn't been kind to them." I said sadly.
"I can believe it, nobody worships them anymore so they arent anywhere near as powerful though Cronus seems to be an exception." John stated.
"Uh John you might wanna stop using his name. When somethings strong enough using their name invokes that being and with The lord of time being near full power he qualifies." I warned.
"What about Hecate?" Sam asked.
"Her too, shes one of the few pagans who doesn't need constant worship to retain power because her domain is one of the metaphysical aspects of the universe, only reason the titan king does is because theres a being of time stronger then him." I explained.
To my surprise I found myself knocked down by a black missile..
"Holy shit! Hellhound!" John exclaimed backing up.
"Its okay, shes not dangerous. Well least as long as you don't hurt me. This is my familiar Esther." I Explained hurriedly.
"A pet hellhound? You're kidding right?" Sam asked.
"Nope, it's a true proven case of nurture vs nature. I found Esther abandoned after a hunt about a year ago. I fed her and she followed me home, Shes been my best friend ever since." I said.
"So you're actually going to follow the titans advice and give us a shot?" Dean asked.
"Dont really got much choice. Trust me on one thing though, only reason any of you are on this base is cause I am here. Without me being here the warding would have registered a foreign entity and blocked you." I scoffed.
"Blocked us how?" Dean asked.
"Depends on how persistent you are, try once it just redirects you but if you try twice it will burn the hell out of ya." I stated.
"How bad?" John asked.
"Depends." I shrugged.
"What on?" Sam chuckled.
"On whether you want to see the body of the last werewolf to try." I said seriously.
"You're kidding right kiddo?" John asked hesitantly.
"No he isnt." a new voice said.
I instantly turned toward and lowered my head at the new entry…
"Lady Hecate, it's a pleasure." I said.
"Adrian, I believe I have told you before to cease with the prostrating. I don't need it." Hecate chided lightly.
"You may not need it but its still appropriate." I said.
"You're Hecate?" Dean asked Incredulous.
"Yes I am, does that shock you?" Hecate asked.
"You legitimately look like a teenager, similar to the ones I gave wedgies to for picking on Sam as a kid!" Dean protested.
"Well I assure you Dean Michael Winchester should you even attempt that with me you will find yourself missing a few limbs, one of which I am sure you are quite fond of!" Hecate threatened.
In response my elder brother just shifted his legs closer together and backed up…
"Milady why are you here?" I asked.
"Spending the night, I assume my rooms open?" Hecate asked.
"If my family werent here I would say yes." I winced.
"Well then I will move!" Hecate snapped her fingers and the air shimmered with magic…
"What did you do?!" John demanded.
"Moved my clothing into Adrians room. It wouldn't be the first time." Hecate responded plainly.
That was that And Hecate sashayed down the hall…
My quote unquote father looked at me and said "I think you got some explaining to do kid.."
