Chapter 10 - Entraped

Zeus ran up the mountain as fast as he can happily. When he made it to the top he discovered a random door.

Zeus then opened the door, skeptical about what is behind it. When he opened it, behind the door was what seemed like a secret lab.

He then saw an old man there sitting in a chair "oh my what's this, a child" the old man said. "Um hello im here for an investigation of an organization" Zeus said.

"Oh yes yes sit down my child, by the way my name is Archimedes" the old man said "ok wow that's a long name I might not remember it, oh yeah and my name is Zeus" Zeus said.

"ahh Zeus what a fine name for a find young man" Archimedes said. Zeus then sat in the seat next to him.

"You want to know something Zeus, I know your parents" Archimedes said "wait what do you mean you know them?" Zeus asked.

"Both of your parents were part of the former 12 Olympian gods" Archimedes said "WAIT HOW DO YOU KNOW?" Zeus said.

"Oh ho ho me and your father go way back, your father was also the strongest god when he was in his prime" Archimedes said.

"Then why, WHY DID HE DIE!" Zeus said "oh I'm sorry to hear that but all of the Olympian gods lost a lot of their power" Archimedes said.

Zeus then grabbed Archimedes jacket "tell me more, so what your saying is my mother and father are gods. WHY DIDNT THEY TELL US?!" Zeus said.

"I'm so sorry Zeus but they did know how to tell you, but now you know. But this also makes you and all your siblings gods" Archimedes said.

Zeus then looked at Archimedes "wait I thought that if your the child of s god your a Demi-god" Zeus said.

"That only counts if one of your parents is a human, but since both your parents are full blooded gods, you and your siblings are full blooded gods" Archimedes said.

"I'm sorry Archimedes for grabbing you like that, it's just when you talked about my parents it reminded me of my fathers death" Zeus said.

"I know I know son it's ok I'm upset to hear it too but staying strong is what he would have wanted, trust me" Archimedes said.

Zeus then smiled "come here son" Archimedes said, Zeus then hugged Archimedes.

Then all of a sudden they both heard an explosion "I'm sorry Zeus there here, I'm going to die" Archimedes said.

"Wait wait whose here?" Zeus asked. Then suddenly a man broke down the door and started to choke Archimedes.

Zeus then threw a lightning bolt at the man but the man dodged it then punched Zeus with his left hand.

"Where is it?" the man said to Archimedes "I don't know what your talking about" Archimedes said while being choked.

Zeus then got angry and tackled the man out of the house and they both started falling off the mountain together.

Zeus was terrified when he was falling but he then turned the man around and they both fe down on the ground.

The man broke Zeuses fall then the man died on contact with the ground. Zeus then heard Archimedes screaming on the top of the mountain.

Zeus tried his best to run up the mountain but then a large Minotaur tackled him to the ground. The Minotaur was salivating while seething it's teeth.

Zeus didn't know what to do in this situation since this is the most burly Minotaur he's seen so far. Zeus ultimately decided to battle the Minotaur.

Zeus summoned a lighting bolt from the palm of his hand, the Minotaur bolted at Zeus then Zeus quickly chucked the lighting bolt at the Minotaur without hesitation.

The lightning bolt struck the Minotaur in the chest but it seemed to be ineffective against the Minotaur. The Minotaur then punched Zeus, sending him flying.

Zeus still didn't give up, while Zeus was in the air he threw a lighting bolt at the Minotaur with full force. The lighting bolt struck the Minotaur.

The Minotaur fell to its knees in pain then without second thoughts Zeus sprinted at the Minotaur and decapitated it with a lighting bolt. Zeus sighed in relief.

"Where is the Typhoeus Orb?" The man said while choking Archimedes "I- I will never tell you Ephemeris" Archimedes said. "Never the matter, I shall just kill you for it" Ephemeris said calmly.

Zeus was running up the mountain but then suddenly one of Ephemeris slaves summoned a giant boulder and started rolling it down at Zeus.

Zeus was frozen of fear. From the speed the boulder was rolling and the position he was in, he knew he couldn't escape his fate.

Suddenly Sisyphus grabbed the boulder with his bare hands "GET OUT OF HERE!" Sisyphus yelled at Zeus. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE??" Zeus yelled.

Suddenly Zeus noticed Tantulas and Tiresias running up the mountain with insane speed, he also saw Poseidon and Hestia fighting some of Ephemeris's slaves.

Suddenly Tantulas threw Zeus on the top of the mountain "go save the old man" Tantulas said. Zeus made it to the top then grabbed Ephemeris's arm but then Ephemeris kicked Zeus to the wall.

"You have to leave young one" Archimedes said "no way I'm going to let this bastard harm you" Zeus said "oh how cute you made a friend" Ephemeris said.

Zeus then ran at Ephemeris and swung at him but then Ephemeris dodged it the kicked Zeus in the stomach with his knee then threw Zeus off the mountain.

Ephemeris started laughing but then Zeus climbed back up "what, he used his lighting bolts as weapons to help him climb up" Ephemeris said.

Zeus then threw a lighting bolt at Ephemeris but he dodged it. The lighting bolt blew up in the air and created a white flash in the sky.

"If that would have made contact with me" Ephemeris thought to himself. Zeus then grabbed Archimedes and jumped off the mountain.

"NOO GET BACK HERE, GIVE ME THE TYPHEOUS ORB!!" Ephemeris yelled in anger. Zeus then fell to the ground with no protection.

"ZEUS" Hestia yelled as she ran to him , Poseidon ran to Zeus as well. "Zeus, Zeus wake up" Poseidon said. Poseidon and Hestia then saw Archimedes on a cloud.

"That boy, that boy saved me instead of himself" Archimedes said. Sisyphus then successfully destroyed the boulder with his bare hands.

"You have to stop Ephemeris before he gets the orb" Archimedes said "wait that guys name is Ephemeris and what do you mean orb?" Zeus said.

"I don't have time to explain" Archimedes said. Suddenly Ephemeris started walking down the mountain holding both Tantulas and Tiresias by their heads.
