Egor’s Creation (Part 7)
When the Wizards heard what Kronos did.
The ruined town, the threatened kid.
They were ready to flip their lid.
Anika convinced them to wait on their bid.
“I need to talk to the person who provided the bolts.”
“I think he could help us all the most.”
She would seek help from Zeus himself.
Tell him all that happened herself.
To Mt. Olympus, Anika and family went.
They appeared there like they were sent.
Anika pleaded her case to Zeus.
“Without your help he will cook our goose.”
Zeus considered all of this for a while.
Then, his face broke out in a smile.
“I have a plan that just might work.”
“It is something that won’t be a quirk.”
“All my family here will have to help.”
“It won’t be lightening bolts to make him melt.”
“We have the power to make a whirlwind.”
“Together we can make it twirl him.”
“It will suck him up into the air.”
“God will deal with him from there.”
“He won’t be able to zap away or fly out of it.”
“The power will be new.He won’t know the trick.”
“But, the trick will be to get him to zap in.”
“Do you know a way we can do this and trap him?”
Anika said “I think I do know a way.”
“More than anything, Kronos wants to have me at bay.”
“He will follow me into the whirling inferno”
“How I will get out, I just don’t know?”
“I think I can handle that.” Zeus said with a smile.
They started making plans. It would take awhile.
In the meantime, Kronos was getting mad.
“I won’t cook a baby. Does that make you glad?”
“What did you have in mind then dear Dad?”
“Come, I will show you what came to mind.”
They zapped back to the ruined town line.
Kronos used magic to erect a large cross.
Then he covered it with sticky moss.
He produced a mannequin that looked like Anika.
It was nailed to the cross. It would freak ya.
Wizards who were sent to spy freaked out.
They yelled “What the hell is this about?”
Kronos killed all, but one Wizard then.
He said “Go tell the others this will happen to them..”
The Wizard zapped back to Vantera in a panic.
“Kronos has become a killing mechanic.”
He told them all that was seen and said.
They knew, above all, Kronos wanted Anika dead.
Anika and family zapped back to get the news.
“We have no more time to pick and choose.”
She told them about Zeus and his plan.
It was a gamble, but they would do what they can.
“The Lumicates told me to draw from the past.”
“I think I know what that means at last.”
“More than anything Kronos wants to kill me.”
“I will be the bait to set us free.”
All Wizards feared for her life.
This news just added to their overall strife.
But, what will happen will happen it seems.
It was one in a million. Maybe just a dream.
