As Pontus, the great evil from the past, begins breaking free from his binds, a certain someone begins picking up his magic energy, and his eyes widen. Jack and Hercules haven't noticed, thankfully, but Akio is able to feel this energy first, as if he's familiar with it.
Akio manages to calm himself down, as he suggests a small event between the Generals and their affiliates (such as: the Olympians, Atlas, Crusher etc., which we shall call Honorary Generals). Jack and Hercules agree, but they do not know that Akio is also suggesting it to take his mind off the threat of Pontus.
As the three break their heads as to what should happen, Pontus' underlings notice that his reawakening has begun.
"My loyal soldiers..."
"Lord Pontus..!? How? Has the time come already?"
"Yes. Go out and find me loyal comrades that will aid me in killing him... Go!"
"As you wish, sir!"
