Titanomachy V

As soon as its power was added to his own, Aemond smirked as he felt it enter his body. Thus he grabbed the air, and with a "ARRGGGHHHH" he pulled its fabric and so it reached around all his enemies, Atlas, as he was flailing around still jot out of stamina. Iapetus and Helios while they battered his sisters. Hyperion had quickly flashed away as soon as he felt Cronos's scream rattle his bones.

"UNCLE!" Helios came down to him uncle's help, having escaped the sky itself. Blasts of sunbeams lasered into the ground where Zeus and Aemond stood.

"Damn you, Helios!" Zeus said. Lightning chsed his chariot as his blasts knocked them of course.

Feeling his work done, he glanced over at Zeus, exhaling heavily. Shock took over his face at witnessing Aemond's actions. "W-wha…?"

"Thank you brother." Aemond hissed with amusement, a snarky smirk on his lips.

With that battle fought. Aemond had captured 4 Titans, one of the their king. This news reverberated everywhere in the Mount Othrys, the Titans home. Many Titans and Titanesses ruched over to the gods side with this while some stayed.

Thea, Titaness of the Sun and Light. Coeus, Titan of Foresight. Phoebe, Titaness of Intelligence. Mnemosyne, Titaness of Memories. Themis, Titaness of Justice and Order. Rhea, Titaness of Fertility and Childbirth had all switched immediately to the gods side.

And thus…"Im your mother." Rhea announced to collected gods. Faces of surprise rang out, which quickly turned to desperation as they rushed to be embraced by their mother, all except Aemond.

The war had only gone on for another year, as the gods constantly defeated the Titans and their forces led by Hyperion and Krios.

"Have you decided to give up?" Aemond asks his adversaries in front of him. The war had taken them straight to Mount Othrys were they cornered the rest of the Titans, namely Krios, Titan of Constellations and Hyperion, Titan of Light and Observation.

"We have your son, Hyperion." Aemond said while he nodded to Poseidon, in his hands was a chained and drained Helios, Titan of The Sun. "Do you not care for him? Your own son?"

Behind the gods lay their whole army. Allied Titans, Nymphs, Monsters, and some of the minor gods during this time. They listened in on the conversation. "We have your King, your General, Your Strategist, Your Main Combatants...….You Wives and Children. What more do we have to take? Your lives?" Aemond egged on.

"We will never surrender, not until you end up burning for eternity in Tartaros-"

Before Keios can even finish he's interrupted by Aemond, "Fitting you say that."

At his words, hundreds of hands reach from the ground and grab onto the Titans, even the ones captured. Although the ones have been drained of their divinity by his casket, they still try and get free, fear overrides their minds as they realize what this is.

"NOOO, THE HEKATONKHEIRIES!!!"

The ground trembles underneath them as they're pulled into the depths as the Cyclopes and Hekatonkheiries pop out, startling all who did not know of their existence. The reason they did not help show up until now is they were waiting for all the titans to be in the same spot.

(I completely forgot about them.)

"YOU HAVE WON." One of the Hekatonkheiries says.

"Yes, we have." Zeus says stepping forward. Aemond looks at Zeus with hidden anticipation in his eyes.

"For our deal….you are free." He says. Tension envelopes the area as the Cyclopes and Hekatonkheiries stare Zeus down. "But I never said for how long." With that, Zeus casts giant lightning bolts at them.

But as they had planned for just incase. The lightning bolt dissipated and with it, Most of Zeus divinity. Almost instantly his body weakened, his body became frail looking and he collapsed

"YOU DARE!" Brontes, one of the elder Cyclopes, screams.

"Yes." Aemond answers back as a portal opens in front of the group of monstrous figures, teleporting them to the 'between'. A realm he visits when looking at destiny. They would simply float in complete stasis for all eternity with no one to help them. 'Sorry guys, but it had to happen.'

"Zeus!" Hera cries out in shock at seeing his body collapse. Many rush over to him, checking him.

"What happened!!???"

Hades answers his question, "Did you not see brother? He tried to attack and something happened to his power, I can barely feel it."

"Yes…its seems as though the Cyclopes put in countermeasures." Aemond adds.

"Did you kill them? Are they dead?" Hera asks with hate at the monstrous figures. "Please tell me they'll suffer!"

"They'll wish they were dead." He replies.

Poseidon angers at the slow response of their army. "GET A HEALER!!"

"Move, I can heal him." Aemond intervenes. "Just let me take him, ill return tomorrow."

Hera looks a little hesitant but still hands him Zeus's frail body and watches as he flies away.

"Why are you crying sister." Hades leans into her. "You know he will marry Thetis, right? Your romantic love for him means nothing." He finishes bluntly.

"Please, Hades stop." Hestia pleads taking Hera's side and hugging her.

He simply nods and walks to his brother. "Will he be ok?" Poseidon asks.

"He is in Aemond's hands, why would he not be." Hades says with ultimate confidence in his younger twin.

Zeus POV

"-us!" What the hell is happening? I remember trying to banish the monsters and then…..darkness.

"Zeus!" Aemond? Is that you, what's happening. I demand you tell me everything!

"Are you awake?"

"Yes." I barely get the words out of my mouth.

"Good, now relax."

"What are you doing." Something doesnt feel right.

< Dont worry Brother. > What? Brother? No....

I look up to Aemond and see it…his eyes glowing with his divinity.

"It was you? You were in my head? Ill kill you, you dare do that to Zeus! Who do you think you are."

His eyes morph into something cold looking. Something I haven't seen out of him. " Who do I think I am? I am Aemond, and you are a puppet that dances to my tune." His hand reaches for my face.

"GET AWAY FROM ME!"

It touches me and then...

——

Aemond POV

Done, finally. Zeus was know a walking, talking puppet, with me fully in control of all actions of his. Why be king if I can just control him?
