Summary: Eris hear's a plan and must act to protect Strife and
Cupid's child.
Eris flashed into the out rooms of Zeus' office. She needed to
pass on some information from Ares about the battle that Demeter had
screamed for. Ares was in the middle of reasigning most of Strife's
more dangerous work between the twins. No one wanted Strife anywhere
near earth in his present condition. She smiled softly thinking
about her pregnant son and wondered if he was feeling okay today.
She decided after her meeting with the old bastard she would go visit
him.
As she was about to walk into Zeus' office she could hear
someone raging inside. She made herself invisable and flashed into
the room. What she saw made her heart clench. Strife was in a chair
infront of Zeus and he was staring at his grandfather in
terror. "You did this on purpose, didn't you?" Zeus screamed.
Strife was crying and shaking his head. "You purposely made Cupid
fall in love with you! Then somehow you played Hera into marrying the
two of you before I could stop it. Know your having this little
bastard. Well I won't have it. I'll do to you what I did to that
Bastard son of mine. I'll take your child and put it in a human
woman. I'll ruin you for this. I'll make you bleed." Eris cried
out in alarm. No not again! Not her baby. Before she could think of
what she was doing she appeared to them and began to blast power at
Zeus. In the back of her mind she screamed for help. "Run Strife!"
She screamed.
As she fought him she remembered the last time Zeus had gone on
a rampage like this one. It had been twenty five years earlier. The
outcome of that battle was the banishment of her husband and his
brothers and the lose of a child each for herself, Ares and Baccus.
Just as she was beginning to lose hope of saving herself o her son
figures flashed in on everyside of her. Power burst joined hers,
every color under the sun. She realized with a start that the Houses
of Love, War, Debanchary and Healing where fighting Zeus side by
side. Eris was unsure how long it lasted, but soon it died down and
Heph hurried past them and locked Zeus in manacles. "He won't be
going anywhere for awhile." Strife came up beside her and he was
glowing. "I demand vengance against Zeus for the pain and evil he
has inflicted." Stunned silence acomplanied his words. Moments
Strife, Eris and everyone else in the room where transfported into
the main hall. The Fates and the Elder Gods stood waiting. "With
this demand a trial is called. If found guilty Zeus will fall. In
his place Ares will be the ruler of us all."
