The Boy's Capture
William Ryder had never had a home, he had been in the foster system since he was born after his mother died giving birth and he knew nothing of his father. Throughout his twelve years in the system he had been passed around from home to home almost always ending up in an abusive home and the times he didn't he was abruptly kicked out after monsters only he could see made him cause too much trouble.
He had finally decided to run away on his twelfth birthday. He was now nearing his fourteenth birthday and had been living alone the whole time. It was actually quite peaceful after the rough life he had had already. He lived mostly in the forest but ventured into the nearest city from time to time, whenever necessary. Any monster that he came across he could usually outrun and ones he couldn't he managed to slay with a sword he had picked up one time after a cyclops had tripped and impaled himself on a large stick.
He had finally made it from the northeastern forests where he was kicked out of his last foster home all the way to California. He had walked most of the way there, sometimes grabbing a ride unnoticed on a train or slipping into a transport truck. It was just his luck that as soon as he stepped into the state he seemed to be swarmed by monsters left and right. This was good for his sword fighting practice but wasn't so great for what he had hoped would be a nice beach vacation.
As William ran and fought off the monsters he came to a mountain that he thought he may be able to lose the current monsters that were after him on. As he ascended the mountain the feeling that he should turn around or face the consequences got stronger, but anytime he would contemplate turning around he would hear the monsters yell and roar behind him, pushing the thought out of his mind as he trudged along.
William suddenly came to a dead end and started to panic, hearing the monsters jeering getting closer. The sun fell a little further and suddenly the wall at his back was no longer there and he fell on his butt. He scrambled backwards when he ran into something else, looking up from the ground he saw a ten foot tall man in pitch black armour with stars floating in it and a rams head helmet standing above him. William tried to scramble away but he was scooped up effortlessly by the man and carried further into the garden.
They passed through the garden and made their way quickly to the summit where William saw a funnel cloud descending from the sky and another giant man underneath it holding it from reaching the mountain. "Krios what have you brought to our mountain top?" asked the man under sky. "I sensed this one coming up the mountain, he felt quite powerful and felt he may make a good placeholder until we can find an immortal to place in your spot" Krios explained. "Well stick him under and let's see" the man replied eager to be removed from his millennia old punishment. Krios tossed the boy under the sky and Atlas slowly placed it on his shoulders, to make sure he wouldn't be immediately crushed and kill them all. To the Titans' surprise William didn't moan or budge as the sky was placed fully on his shoulders as he took up the same position the man had been holding it in.
"How does it feel to be free Atlas?" Krios asked. "It feels better than you could ever know" Atlas replied rolling his shoulders and stretching all of his aching muscles. Little did the two Titans know, William was receiving a message from the mountain's Ourea. "Use your powers over Earth to become one with the mountain and use it's strength" the mountain's spirit whispered into William ear before disappearing. He didn't know what that meant but tried anyways, any help was welcome help at this point. He felt a tug in his gut and suddenly he felt his feet become rooted in place and the load on his shoulders became significantly lighter. "Thank you" William whispered not knowing if the spirit was listening or not.
Over the next month William continued to hold the sky in place, occasionally being fed some food and liquid that was the most amazing things he had ever tasted, the flavour being even better after not having a real cooked meal in two years. Other than that the only occupant of the mountain that paid him any attention was Atlas, he now wore a suit every time he came for a 'visit'. These were hardly friendly visits, they often started with Atlas admiring William for making it through another day and quickly turned into Atlas punching and kicking him when he wouldn't answer any question or anything. The only good thing about his foster system experience was that it had taught him how to tolerate pain, so Atlas' beatings soon became just a regular thing that happened that he paid no real attention to, though he still flinched every time he would hear Atlas' voice for the first time, shaking his body to the core every time.
The Titans and their goons started bringing in more prisoners as William watched from his central location, everyday slaughtering those they had brought in when he hadn't collapsed to the sky yet. After nearly a month a monster with a mans face, lions body and scorpions tail brought in a pretty blonde girl with grey eyes and chained her up almost directly in front of him. Which was odd since prisoners were always taken off to his left somewhere.
The girl always seemed to be trying to ask him questions but part of this 'Part of the Mountain' thing must have meant he couldn't talk because no matter how hard he tried William could get no words out. Then his world changed one day when Atlas himself brought up another woman and William thought they must have captured Aphrodite because this woman was easily the most gorgeous creature he had ever seen. Her auburn hair was fall out of a braid from being jostled around while being carried. Her olive skin tone matched it perfectly. Her face was the most perfect one he'd ever seen. She was skinny but looked very muscular, like someone who worked out a lot. She had a small waist and wide hips, with a large jiggly bubble butt and thick, muscular thighs that started her long legs. When Atlas finally put the supermodel down William could see that she also had a large pair of breasts as well. This all may seem a little creepy but William had seen nothing for a month and then Atlas placed an angel right in front of him, so it was impossible not to analyze everything he could, finally being able to use his brain.
Then the next day she opened her eyes and shared a suprised look with the blonde. 'They must know each other' William thought. Then Atlas voice boomed from the shadows "Welcome Lady Artemis to our humble abode." She looked around to find the source of the voice when her eyes landed on William, she seemed to scan over him before his blue eyes locked with her beautiful silver ones. William knew what Atlas said was true and this was a goddess because she was easily the most beautiful person he had ever seen and he couldn't tear his eyes from hers. As their eyes stayed locked he got a feeling in his stomach that quickly disappeared as she pulled her eyes away when Atlas appeared beside her.
"Do you like my replacement Artemis? He is incredibly strong for a human. He has been holding that weight for a month straight now. We had other captives lined up to swap places but he hasn't budged since we put him there so we just killed our other prisoners" Atlas said with slight admiration towards William. The two immortals, continued a conversation until Atlas laughed, and pulled Artemis up from the floor he carried her out in front of him she fought to free herself from his grip but even at six foot six he held her too far above the ground for her to get any leverage, so all she accomplished was shaking her big tits in front of William.
Atlas reached the sky and he threw Artemis to the ground, kicked her under the sky which knocked William out the other side. William tried to get up to run away but passed out as soon as he stood up straight and face planted into the dirt.
