Chapter 13
The monsters were still making moves up the hill and behind them you could spot the one and only, Rhea. The people at camp began to suit up and take their positions. The archers in the back. The Romans at the front and sides with shields. The Greeks in the middle with weapons at the ready and the mortals spread among the ranks as backup.
Annabeth had the smart idea to call upon the gods for help in defeating the titan. Once Annabeth had IM'ed Olympus, the sight before them was not surprising. The gods were fighting, AGAIN. Annabeth shouted for attention and got it. She pleaded with them to help in defeating Rhea. None of them believed that Rhea would attack so Annabeth just said, "Come see for yourself!" And of course Zeus being Zeus he and the other olympians flashed to the battlefield to find that Rhea was indeed in control of the enemy.
Zeus was furious, he hadn't believed that the mother that had saved him from his father's rath all those years ago could become so cruel. However the more he thought about it, he found that it may be the fact that he imprisoned his own mother when she did nothing wrong that made her crazy. He now understood why his granddaughter had called him for help. He was shaken from his thoughts by the very person that called him down from Olympus. Annabeth was strategizing with her mother on the best way to take down Rhea after the monsters were out of the way.
The demigods and surprisingly the mortals were making way through the numerous monsters that gathered around Rhea. Turns out if the Romans, Greeks, and Mortals worked together instead of breaking apart, they were able to defeat more monsters in less time. By the time the army had gone through hal of the monsters, Annabeth and Athena had come up with a plan.
The six children of Rhea and Kronos would take on their mother. While, Hestia was normally a pacifist, she couldn't let her siblings take all the fighting with her help so she agreed to fight too. Hecate and Apollo would be taken to the mind controlled boys, to try and break them from their compulsion. The rest of the Olympians would fight along their children (Artemis will fight with her Hunters).
By the time everyone had their roles, almost all of the monsters were gone. However, it seemed that the more monsters were killed, the more would appear behind Rhea. Now the gods were in action. The remaining Olympians were shifting between their Roman and Greek forms, surprisingly not going insane as the Greeks and Romans made their peace after the Giant War. While the army paved the way the six children made their way to their mother. While none of them had fought yet, it was intimidating to see them in their armour and weapons. It took a while but the six finally reached Rhea.
The most off setting thing about her were her eyes. They were not noticeable from far away, but the six knew it wasn't their mother. They may have not seen her much but they always knew her eyes. The eyes had comforted them when they were in their Father's stomach. Rhea had eyes that were memorable. Because unlike their Father's cold golden eyes, their mother had warm brown eyes. Brown and most definitely not purple. Zeus was the first one to speak.
Zeus: Whoever you are release my mother, this is under the command of the Olympian King.
Rhea: Tsk, Tsk! Now son is that how you greet your mother. And why would you think someone is controlling me?
Zeus: Mother, heed my calls please return to us.
Rhea: Now you call upon me. You take me for granted my son. As soon as I am your enemy you ask my forgiveness when you denied me the chance when you imprisoned me because I was a titan.
Hades: Mother, Zeus has made mistakes but this is hardly the way to go about it. I'm sure that Zeus would have released you when he came to his senses.
Rhea: Hades, a wise one you have grown to be but I'm afraid your brother would have not done that even if I pleaded. That is why I am taking matters into my own hands. I gave you your legacy my children and you have abused it for way to long. You are not fit to rule any longer.
Hestia: Mother please listen to reason. These demigods have not wronged you. You must let them go and we can deal with this ourselves.
Rhea: Always the peacemaker aren't you my daughter. Aren't you bored of your siblings' constant quarrels. You must join me and help me bring a new age to Olympus.
Hestia: As much as they quarrel mother, they are still family and right now you are hurting the demigods. They are children brought mistakenly to our world and should not have to fight our battles.
Hera: Hestia is right mother. As much as I despise certain demigods, children are still children. I know you wouldn't intentionally hurt children as you did your best to protect us. Please, just stop the battle.
Rhea: In my prison I learned that children are ruthless. They take everything for granted and never return anything. You can thank your brother for the lesson.With a flick of her hand she threw her children aside and continued to travel up the hill. She was stopped by the futile attempts the army did to stop her. Arrows, spears, daggers, and swords harmlessly bounce off her. Hades had the brilliant notion that his mother had cast a spell to keep her protected, like the effects of the River Styx. But, that also meant she was vulnerable to internal injuries. He telepathically told his siblings and they got up and walked up towards their mother. Just then their mother had reached Thalia's Pine.
Rhea: Attention all. I introduce myself as Rhea, mother to the six siblings. They have abused their power for too long and now they must pay. In their place, Zeuson, Apolloson and Areson will rule Olympus.
Multiple shouts of protest went through the battleground. The demigods might despise the gods but they were still their parents and they had some gratitude for them. Rhea ignored the yells and walked off towards the Athena Parthenos. Rhea grew in size as she walked. Now she was 40 feet tall, just like the famed statue. Many were confused as to why the statue was important but the Athena children knew better. While it might not seem obvious, but the statue held immense power. The power to reunite two sides, the power to combine Greeks and Romans lay inside the object. To break the statue or even lose it meant destruction. The gods would split once more and the Greeks and Romans would turn on each other and destroy themselves.
The Gods thought this would be the perfect time to take action. The commotions of Rhea's announcement had been the perfect distraction. The siblings took the time to plan out their attack. The gods shrunk down to mortal size and stealthy made their way into a circle around their mother. Just as Rhea was about to break the statue, the gods grew to their normal state and pointed their weapons. Without warning they charged their powers towards their mother. The immense power outbreak caused everyone, even the gods to look away.
After an eternity, the light died down and in the middle of the six siblings was an unconscious titan.
