Everything was going well. Zake was sailing, The Remnants was stable, my family was stable again. But somehow, and I blame Death, we forgot about the army of monsters that started the war. The very same ones that followed me to Durban and they just...
That's what echoed in my mind. I had locked Jake's mind away, refraining him from stopping me. Zoe deserved this, no matter how bad Persephone was she had married me and therefore she'll always be mine.
I was walking away from her, my last line settling. She had the nerve to tell Jake to kick me out his body, but she could host Nyx? Unacceptable! That's a three-year relationship with too much pain, too much suffering for us to just separate. Still though because of all the trauma, it made our relationship sticky and I'll regret the day Jake decides to leave me behind. But that's a worry for after.
I kept walking.
"She will join us.", said a voice I knew too well. I turned to see all twelve Olympians sitting on pillars I had just made. Zeus had spoken, and he was referring to Zoe.
"Let her join," I turned fully around. ", she is just another enemy. Another body that will litter the planes of the new Aeolus City."
I laughed and threw the grin I was holding back. Zoe and her subordinates were looking in between the gods and me.
"Join us, Zoe Nyx. As you can see, Hades has taken full control. Can you feel it? Jake is still there but locked away, slumbering until we defeat Hades." Athena reasoned with her, and I could already see that she won her over. But to just make it clear, she nodded.
"We're with you all the way." Toni assured her friend.
"Let's get back our Jakie." Psyche said all too soon. Oh how pathetic.
"Your days are over, brother." Poseidon mocked me. "Give up, come peacefully. Let the boy go."
I laughed. I downright laughed. I wished Jake had an evil laugh but he didn't. But right now that laugh was the scariest thing to them since they all took a nervous step back.
"I think you need more than just you all to take down me." I gloated but faltered when Zeus flicked his and all The Remnants appeared. All of Jake's recruits, people we had saved, stood behind Zoe and their gods.
"Will this army do?" Ares gloated. I just smiled.
