First Voyage Of The Will Of The Dark

(What should the Machine Spirit Of The Will Of The Dark be named? Yes, she is female as all ships are.)

Constantine on his titanic and heavily armored flagship watched as his remaining 85,000 Undead began to load up into the bowls of the ship. His Death Knights and Mages were going to start patrolling the ship to make sure it was well defended even if that was pointless. 

With the ship having a very violent Machine Spirit, it would not allow intruders to board. In the meantime, the Blacksmiths and the Verdun Undead all went into the Manufactorum to continue their work. 

They were going to be in charge of running the ship's forges and making any gear that Constantine and his crew would need. At the moment he gave them the orders to start making more ammunition for the ship as it would need them in time. 

They could make them from Dragon Steel as being hit by an enchanted 3,000-pound Dragon Steel shell would fuck up even a god. In the meantime, Constantine gathered at the brow of the ship with Medusa, Solomon, and Vritra as he wanted to see his creation in action. 

While he was all smiles at the moment, Medusa began to notice something. Her attention was taken to the 24-20 inch guns and the 30-10 inch guns. They were all twitching and moving around on their own. 

Even the Anti Air Weapons that Constantine had ordered place were beginning to spin. She watched as parts of the ship shifted before turning into more weapons on its own. 

"Constantine, why are those weapons moving like that?"

Constantine smiled and placed a hand on the side of his Flagship. 

"Because she is alive. I have been using my blood in the smelting process when making the Dragon Steel adding my Divine Energy into it. She has an Abyssal Steel Nuclear Reactor stuffed with 20,000 souls. If the ship didn't come alive, I don't know what else will. 

The guns are moving on their own as the ship tries to figure itself out. Now then, who is ready for a trip." 

A huge bellowing roar erupted from the ship shaking Constatine's entire workshop. All its weapons began to move ammunition and load up as it seemed to be itching to move. 

"Seems like she is." 

Constantine spread his arms wide as his armor formed around him. When he did so, he could feel his soul synchronize with the ship's Machine Spirit. It was a particularly dark thing that seemed ready for action. 

"Teleporting to the Straight of Scylla and Charybdis now." 

He placed a hand on the ship and he teleported to the entrance of the Bermuda Triangle. With a surge of Constantine's Divine Energy which was like a flood of darkness the ship which was over a kilometer in size vanished along with everyone in it. 

When it reappeared the ship appeared above the ocean causing it to begin to fall. Constantine sighed as teleporting this behemoth and all of the Undead inside of it took a lot, but not enough to exhaust him. 

He watched as the ship fell into the ocean water which caused it to start displacing huge hundreds of tons of water. It even began sinking a bit with how heavy it was, but the ship's propellers began spinning as it began advancing. 

Constantine smiled as the ship seemed to groan as it began to push through the ocean waves. 

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! MY SHIP LIVES! MESS WITH ME IF YOU DARE!" 

As Constantine laughed like a madman Medusa sighed.

"Men, I never understand your obsessions with big weapons or shiny toys." 

Constantine calmed his mad laugh as she kind of had a point. Men liked big ships, big spaceships, big guns, and big tits. Men were just built like that, but for now, he saw as one of the six 20-inch turrets spun around. 

He focused on the entrance of the sea which was like a cut into a cliff. The distance was around 120 miles from his ship which was a big distance to chuck a shell. Though he knew his ship had the range and more. 

"Fire for effect." 

One of the four barrels fired on one of its gigantic 20-inch shells which were made of Dragon Steel with Celestial Bronze tips enchanted for extra firepower. He watched as the shell hit the cliffs and it then exploded with the force of what he could only call a mini nuclear explosion of black dragon fire. 

It carved open the cliffs with a single shell at over 120 miles away. That didn't even seem like the max range which reminded him that the combination of Magic and Science was always grand. 

"That was awesome."

He walked to the brow of his ship and watched as it sped up. The ship began rocking as the back section began to shapeshift and thrusters appeared. They began belching superheated black fire causing the ship to start cutting through the ocean. 

Medusa held on to the railing as that happened. She turned to Constantine with more questions. 

"You didn't add thrusters did you?" 

He shook his head. 

"Nope, she is shapeshifting, optimizing her shape." 

With the added speed of the thrusters, the ship cut the 120 miles needed to arrive at the entrance in a matter of minutes. However, the 4,500-foot ship was still too large to fit through the entrance, but without even bothering to slow down The Will Of The Dark began shapeshifting its brow to form a Dragon-shaped Battering Ram. 

'That is sick.' 

It then smashed through the rocks as it carved its way into the sea of monsters. He crossed his arms as he watched with the fascination of a creator. Once the giant ship was through, the battering realm was disassembled and reabsorbed into the ship. 

With the ship through the entrance, it meant they were now inside the Sea Of Monsters. The sea instantly began turning volatile as they began to pass a small island. This was the origin of a figure of speech stuck between a rock and a hard place according to Annabeth Chace in the books. 

On that small island was Scylla a former beautiful Nymph cursed into becoming a monster. Myth had two versions, either Circe or the wife of Poseidon, Amphrite mixed poison in Scylla's bath water out of jealousy. 

It transformed her into a gigantic sea monster with six draconic serpentine heads and another six dog heads around the waist. As the monster emerged from her cave to snatch some of the sailors from this ship, it froze. 

Never in her long life has Scylla seen a ship this massive. Not in the ancient past and not even in the modern day. The beast seemed to hesitate to move, but The Will Of The Dark didn't. 

From its left side, the armor began to shift before what seemed to be enormous harpoons formed. Constantine watched as his ship fired these harpoons stabbing into the base of each of Scylla's six heads. 

They pieced deep into the flesh and then the ship began to retract the chains of heavily enchanted Dragon Steel. Scylla was roaring in agony as it tried to resist the pull, but the Will Of The Dark roared as the right side of its hull began to shapeshift. 

Medusa, Vritra, Constatine, and Solomon watched on as Scylla was dragged into the hull of Constatine's ship roaring and screaming. The ship then closed with Scylla trapped inside its hull.

Through his connection to the ship, he learned that a small pocket dimension had been formed where Scylla would remain trapped until he needed her. 

"Make sure you don't kill her, I can probably cure her." 

The Machine Spirit of his ship communicated that it would keep her trapped, but not kill her. With Scylla taken care of, that just left Charybdis. The Will Of The Dark repeated what it did to Scylla and it shifted to form gigantic harpoons on its right side. 

These harpoons then blasted into the sea with extreme force piercing the whirlpool monster. The Dragon Steel seemed to punch through them like they were butter and then the chains began to drag Charybdis out of the sea as the Dragon Steel formed the ship and weapons seemed almost unbreakable thanks to Constantine mixing his blood into it. 

Medusa smiled as she saw Charybdis struggle harder than Scylla. However, that resistance ended when the right side of the hull opened. More Harpoons pierced the sea monster before dragging it out of the sea into a pocket dimension inside the ship. 

With that Scylla and Charybdis were taken care of and they were both trapped in pocket Dimensions inside his ship. Never to break out until Constantine decided. When she saw his face he was all smiles. 

"I created a Magical and Technological Marvel." 

Vritra flicked his tongue as he had to agree. 

"True, plus now you can heal those two and hopefully they don't mind the harpoons." 

"They probably won't even remember."

Constantine placed a hand on his ship as he began to guide it forward. 

'Take us forward, take us to the island of Circe.' 

The ship groaned as it began to release a magical sonar through the sea searching for islands with magic. Eventually, the Island Of Aeaea was found by his ship. She began to make her way to the island where Constantine's half-sister had her Spa Resort.

Even if they were siblings, she would probably try to turn him into a Guinue Pig so he was going to call his Mom to snitch if she tried. He was laughing in his head as he imagined the face Circe would make if he called their Mother on the spot. 

It would not take his ship very long to arrive at Circe's spa resort, but until then Constantine turned to Medusa. 

"What do you think of my creation?" 

When Medusa saw his face she saw he was all smiles. She smiled as she ran her hand down his cheek. 

"Yes, your ship is very impressive, it's big, it has big guns and it is alive just like you wanted. Anything else." 

"You got all of it." 

Just as they were in the middle of a conversation he looked into the distance and saw the island of his sister. 

"Found it." 

Vritra squinted his eyes as he could feel a godly presence on the island. 

"I would release your signature." 

"Right wouldn't want her to piss off my ship by trying to blast her." 

Constantine released his Divine Energy in a tidal wave which he could tell caused Circe to immediately get into attention. The Will of The Dark Slowed down the thrusters, but she continued her way toward the ship. 

Circe rushed to the top of her resort and looked into the distance. When she did, she thought she was hallucinating when she saw what was approaching her island. As a goddess of Magic, she could see Magic, and The Will Of The Dark was saturated in Magic. 

Not just Magic as she could sense the soul of the ship meaning someone had given life to that behemoth. Though right now she ignored the ship as she sensed the terrifying presence at the brow of the ship. 

She squinted her eyes as she enhanced her sight through her Divine Energy to look the distance. She looked directly at Constatine who met her gaze. Even despite the vast distance Constantine sent her a mental message. 

'Circe, nice to meet you. I am Constantine, son of Hecate, Mom says hi.'

She went quite a few seconds before she responded. 

'Hecate, My Mother is your Mother?' 

'Yes. I am going to land on your island, let's talk.' 

He cut the communication as his ship began to slow down. Rather than just blow onto the beach, it was better to stay in the deep sea and for them to just land on the ship. That way she could bombard the island if the need arose. 

At a distance of 20 miles from the island, Constantine teleported onto his sister's island with Medusa, Vritra, and Solomon. Circe was already waiting as she told her employees all to hide as she didn't know if this 'brother' of hers was friendly. 

Both children of Hecate looked at each other for a few moments before Circe scoffed. 

"I believe you, were siblings alright." 

"And from the look of it quite lanted in the art of magic. We got that in spades from Mom." 

He focused on the ring on his right side and activated the enchantment. He waved his hand and he tore open a magical face time. At the moment Hecate was sitting at her desk reading through one of the Grimoires she, Constatine, and Vritra had worked on. 

She was obsessed with magic from Dragon Deus even if she didn't know what or where it came from. She just loved learning about it, but when she saw the call from her son she looked up. 

"Constantine how-" 

She froze when she saw her daughter. 

"I see you met your brother, Circe. Don't try to turn him into a pig or I swear that I will let him spank you 100 times." 

Circe gasped when she heard that. 

"MOM! Are you serious right now?" 

"As serious as Zeus is about cheating. Now, be a good sister and show your brother all your magical research. Do what he says too." 

Circe turned her head and she saw how smug Constantine was being about all this. 

"You heard Mom. Oh, I am taking the Queen Anne's Revenge and Blackbeards Crew too." 

Circe wanted to strangle Constatine now. 

"Oh and do you also want my island?"

"No. I have a better one in mind, besides I will make it worth your while. Since you are also a Goddess of Magic like Mom I bet you like learning about magic. In exchange for all that, how about I teach you a few spells you may like." 

That did interest her, so she decided to accept. 

"Fine, only because Mom is so demanding right now." 

Hecate frowned as she looked at her daughter. 

"Watch it girl, those spankings are still on the table." 

Now Circe seemed quite surprised. 

"You were serious?" 

"When am I not? Constantine, if she tries to turn you into a pig, spank her." 

"Yes, Mother. I will be sure to do that." 

Hecate hung up after that so Circe led Constantine and his group inside. If her Mother was so pushy about it she might as well do what she said.
