Previously on Percy Jackson: Tales of Dunamis;

"NOOOO, I WILL FIND YOU AND I WILL KILL YOU. THIS I SWEAR ON THE FATES!!!"

It was Kronos, their father and King of the Cosmos.

. . .

Dunamis didn't know how much time had passed since the fight on Mount. Orthys but then again he honestly didn't care, all that mattered was that he and his siblings had survived.

It was a quiet and long journey home. Demeter spent her time goggling below with hearts in her eyes whenever any form of a farm passed by, Poseidon was gazing at the passing shoreline that circled Marin County. The rest were listening in to Zeus's tales. While this was going on Dunamis spent his journey 'reliving' the events of the past twenty-four hours pondering on what he had done wrong and what he could improve on next time. Whether it was the bigger mistakes such as being ignorant on the arrival of the reinforcements all the way to the more trivial, smaller mistakes such as how much strength he put behind his attacks and what strikes he should have used in different times.

. . .

"Slow down and start transcending to ground level." Announced Dunamis.

"Aye!" Repplied the rest is choherst unison.

. . .

As they touched the soil the group of gods reverted back to their normal forms, and they all breathed in the pure air of the wilderness.

"Come I can spot the camp!" Spoke Zeusie . . .Uh, I mean Zeus.

As they all followed their eldest brother into the campsite, they were flooded with the nattering of the Nymphs and Satyrs, the business of the streets and the liveliness of the area. Dunamis saw his younger siblings stare at their surroundings in shock.

'I guess living in the empty dark guts of our dearly beloved father for 18 years combined with the fact that the first place they set their eyes on was the gloomy desolate palace can do that to someone.' He thought.

"We must follow the stream up towards the base," Dunamis announced.

. . .

"Base? You guys have a base?" Poseidon questioned.

. . .

"Yup! We call it the Zeus cave! Quite the name right?" Zeus announced cheerfully.

. . .

"We? Only you call it that Zeusie." Dunamis retorted.

. . .

The group of gods exited the town and followed the stream up, towards Mount. Ida.

. . .

"Here we are, my dear siblings. The Zeus cave!"

. . .

"I refuse to call it the Zeus cave," Poseidon spoke out much to the approval of the rest.

. . .

Zeus became deflated and started to cry anime tears, this led to the rest laughing hysterically. It was a nice wholesome moment to increase the bond within the newly reunited siblings.

. . .

The 'Zeus cave' wasn't the biggest yet it still held enough room for the seven of them to comfortably move around.

Dunamis had already finished debriefing them on the history of the world and recent affairs, but they all knew that staying on Mount. Ida wasn't an option. Nymphs had told them or spreading rumours coming from the earth, that Kronos was mobilising his Titans to scour the world for the escapees. He needed them brought back either in chains or shredded into tiny, little pieces he wasn't very picky. He couldn't . . . no he wouldn't be overthrown. The Leader of the Titans will not be bound by Ouranos's curse he was the king of the cosmos after all.

"Now what?" Hades asked.

"Now we fight. We will declare war on our father" Zeus announced with a grin smeared across his face.

Poseidon grunted. He'd only been out of his father's gut for a day, but he was already starting to dislike his younger brother - this upstart Zeus, who thought he should be in charge just cause he rescued them.

"I'm all for fighting Dad," Poseidon said, "But that would require weapons, I don't suppose we have any?"

"Uh . . . Yeah I- I forgot about that, I hadn't really thought that far ahead," Zeus said sheepishly rubbing the back of his head with his hand. "Wait were gods we don't need weapons, we have our fists," he said balling his fist into his hands to emphasize his point.

"Don't be so foolish brother. You and I both know that the Titans are nothing to scoff out. We are highly outnumbered, inexperienced, domain-less and weaponless. Fighting now would only lead to utter catastrophe," Dunamis said with authority leaving no room for argument.

"Perhaps we could make peace," Hestia suggested.

The others looked at her as if she was crazy. Hestia was like their mother god natured and far too kind. She was the oldest and gentlest of the gods, but her siblings didn't take her seriously.

"Uh, no," Demeter said. "I will never forgive our father. Perhaps we could steal his scythe. We could chop him up like he did to Grandpa Ouranos! Then I could use the scythe for something better - like cutting wheat! Did you see those beautiful fields we flew over?"

Hera scowled at her sister "What is with you and crops? All those years being stuck in Kronos's gut, all you ever talked about was plants, which you hadn't even seen since today!"

Demeter blushed "I don't know. I always dream about green fields they're so peaceful not to mention beautiful and - "

"We get it!" they all replied

"So how are we gonna get weapons?" Hades asked.

"Our uncles, the Elder Cyclopes and the Hundred-Handed ones," Dunamis started, "We could use their help in gaining weapons of unparalleled power."

"If I'm not mistaken, weren't they banished to Tartarus by Kronos?" Hera asked.

"Who fancies a prison break?" The youngest of all the gods replied.
