The Guardian

Chapter 11- God?

I am currently sitting in front of the Elder Cyclops and Hades, It shocked the Elders at first when i rose from the ground in a black shadow right when Hades sat down upon his throne. But Hades Quickly explained the circumstances, and the Elders are now standing there looking grave.

"We know it came as a shock to you but ---" Hades was cut of. "We knew that the Gods were up to something. But we never expected for this!" One of the Elder Cyclops blurted out, His name was Brontes. "Knew? But How? You have been underground since- well-- forever!" Hades stuttered, "Our fellow brothers, The Hundred-Handed-ones, They gave us the information we needed." Another of the Elders said, the one who spoke this time was Arges. "They are nowhere to be seen. I fear for the worst." The last of the Elders, Steropes, said.

Silence filled the whole throne room. It was deafening. You know that high-pitched sound you hear when the room gets too silent? well that's what i'm hearing right now. 

Then out of nowhere the ground shook. Hades fell off his throne, and the Elders stood up surveying the surrounding with an alert expression on their faces. Earthquake? No. Yog-Sothoth! Hes here? How! Bappe was supposed to suppress Him! "HADES! CALL THE THREE FATES! NOW! AND MAKE SURE NONE WILL LEAVE THE CASTLE!" I shouted while the ceiling was falling apart, bit, by bit. 

[Mike] - {Shit! Zack! Yog-Sothoth Is entering the atmosphere! a new portal is forming!}

[Kelly] - {At this rate this entire universe will be ripped to shreds! We need you to break your limiter--!}

"NO! I will do this my way. I've had enough!. I will save this world without using my power!" I shouted. Hades and the Elders looked at me in confusion. But i don't care, They can think that i'm crazy all they want. But i don't give a damn.

"Tell me Bappe's condition!"

[Mike] - {Shes Dead. Were in the process of reviving her}

[Kelly] - {But how are you gonna defeat Yog-Sothoth? in your current body you would only cripple him.}

<Your Forgetting me mysweet, I'll handle it> 

A sound resonated out of my mouth. It was deep and slow. A low cackle followed the sentence. Kcaz, I forgot. Hes always hungry. I looked back at Hades and smiled "The situations being handled, No need to worry".

I sat down on the throne Hades just vacated, face palming myself out of relief. With Kcaz there. It would be a buffet for him, "What is happening?!" Arges asked. "Well, whats happening is, that an immensely powerful being is currently invading this universe.  And if we don't close that portal now, were all fucked." I said.

"Now then. Lets start our discussion shall we?" Hades said as he placed himself beside me, standing there with full authority. "Have you made up your mind Elders?" I asked them. "No, the Gods are just confused at the moment. We just have to believe that they will do the right thing--" Brontes said, "But if they don't?", "They are Gods for Gaia's sake! They know what to do!" Steropes said in anger, After all this time, they still believe that there is good left in the Gods. Faith is quite a cruel thing. 

"You have so much faith for the Gods, in you all, But faith will lead you nowhere. Faith is the enemy of progress, And having so much faith will just slow you down. It will make the strong, the weak. And the meek will become impatient. So tell me, Brontes, Arges, Steropes, What will become of you if you stay down hear for the remaining millennium, Slowly turning to the earth as you disappear without a trace, Forgotten by history, as the world turns into a floating rock in space?" I asked them, They remain stiff. Hades smiled, But he looked on, as he whispered. "Were slowly getting to them."

 I got up and placed Hades on his throne, And walked away, I know the time will come when they will choose to fight with us. But for now, I must let these children rest, They have a long day ahead of them. I walked through the stream of the river styx, Holding a silver coin for Charon to take. 

Charon arrived slowly from up the stream of the river, A pale skeleton like hand reached out to take the coin.

I gave him the coin and said. "when the you hear the sound of thunder, Hear me roar. For tonight, We feast on domination, We will bring upon this world, a new era." 

Charon nodded as i entered the small boat, going up the stream as we slowly reach the land of mortals. Charon looked at me. |The ferrymen of the multiverse will forever follow you my liege|    "I know." 

We finally reached the mainland, The sky was filled with thunderclouds, yet no rain, Constant shaking could be felt from the ground. A loud bang could be heard from the sky, Then everything suddenly turned bright red. Fire filled the whole land, As a loud clash of metal and thunder accompanied with two loud roars. If someone were to look up they would see a silhouette of both God, and beasts massacring each other, as red and gold blood is dripping down from the sky.

Flashes of thunder would illuminate the scenes of this gory battle, A red glint of an eye would sometimes accompany the flash, As well as the constant splatter of liquid fire. 

In front of me was a wall of flame, and through it was the Town, still standing, no damages. The Townsfolk were all doing their business as usual, Not knowing of the battle overhead. A low glow of an illusionary barrier could only be seen by me. I sighed, " Let the plan commence, This. . . This will be very entertaining." I smiled, i felt a strange excitement flowing through my mortal veins. This time, there will be only one poem that will be sung through the ages.

About how the Gods failed them all. And the titans will walk the earth, as the true Gods.
