Spawn of Nothingness

Chapter 9: Chapter 9, Unbound



Atlas looked at the approaching human with intense curiosity since the mist was very strong here

"Who are you, human?" The boy who seems to young to be expressionless stopped

Standing at the foot of the mountain just ten meters away from Atlas, the boy who just turned eighteen walked up to him

"For certain reasons I cannot tell you my name as it would be problematic. Black will be my name for now..." Black. Atlas didn't know why but he felt a deeper meaning behind it, Black circled around him and gazed up at the night sky

"Something to get your mood up here." Atlas saw Black with a red can called Coca-Cola and gestured if he could give it

Black poured the drink inside Atlas mouth and stepped back

The black liquid went into him and the back of Atlas straightened up, he had a smile for a second

"Mortals do know how to give taste, now what do you want" Atlas said in a probing tone

Listening to him Black extended his hand to the distance above the city

"I will grant you freedom and power..." Atlas heard this well as Black closed his eyes, the hand of his seemed to harden and squeeze

From the distance a woman and a man went to Black and levitated in front of him with them gasping for air

Putting them down in front of Atlas who had a intrigued expression, the two sucked air in

"In exchange for loyalty of the highest degree" Black said this went up to the man and woman looked at them while saying

"You see this man in front of you? Stand in his place and I won't kill either of you." Nodding the two of them knew they had no choice in the matter other then death, not wanting to die the two willingly went forward

Seeing this Atlas was the most astonished he's been for thousands of years

As the two went beside him, Atlas shifted the weight of the sky to the two

Collapsing on the ground he looked up to see Black next to him

"Time waits for no one Atlas, it is do is do or die for me and I pick do. I will be going to Olympus to get the destruction I seek, if you should choose so help me." Black was already going down the mountain as Atlas hearing this quickly went with him

Ladon the dragon was still there guarding those apples but it was dead in two minutes

Plucking an apple which had a golden glow, he also tossed one to Atlas

He then gathered all the apples with a bag and uprooted the tree in its entirety

'This should anger them enough'

Going down the mountain with Atlas behind him eating the delicious golden apple, various lightning strikes thundered nearby

They both knew that the gods saw everything conspire here

"The gods will be coming for us now. You did a good job making their madness directed to you" Black didn't say a word when he heard Atlas talk and just silently walked

After a few minutes of going down the mountain, they were in the busy night streets of San Francisco

Turning towards Atlas, Black had this weird scary face plastered all over him

"I DO NOT CARE! If the gods are angry or the universe is angry, I'll be damned they do anything. They took everything away so I have no restraints now." Atlas noticed his eyes twitch a little when Black said that

Black looked to the people and cars in the busy street and lights everywhere

"AHAHAHAHAHA! I've even lost the stupid system template." Strolling to the streets while Atlas kept looking at him wierdly, Black's hysterical shouting alerted the people nearby

"Universe. Congratulations. You have officially BROKEN me!" Thrusting his hands forward a helicopter spun to him uncontrollably and when it got close landed on the ground

Getting in the Chinook helicopter with Black, Atlas could barely fit so he had to duck his head down

The Chinook roared to life and the helicopter blades spun

"At first I didn't understand why I ever came with you..but you have made me very curious for many reasons."

Black nodded when he heard this and decided on something

Atlas in the back of the helicopter saw Black get off of the pilot seat and go to him

The helicopter stil flew with no problem

Seeing Black right in front of him stare at him, he met his stare head on

It startled him definitely

His eyes were pure black, not as the night but the abyssal empty of the void

He could feel his own life essence slowly leave him the more he stared into those eyes

Black sat down on the other side of him and said this..

"My name is not Black. It is Kronos. Not your brother Kronos, I am no titan. I intend to restart the world anew." When Atlas heard this come out of his mouth, he really didn't know what to think of it

It made sense in all cases since why can't another person have Kronos's name?

It was still wierd to think about because he would be referring to this individual as not his brother

Twelve hours later

Kronos went through the doors in the Empire State building with Atlas in tow, both had black suits on

He carried a huge black duffel bag with him as he went up to the attendant

It wasn't busy as usual so the guard was the only one here

"Good afternoon, we would like to go to the 600th floor" Hearing this the male attendant waved his hand and replied

"There's no such building level, I'm afraid." Taking out something from the duffel bag, Atlas pointed it to the attendants head

"Sir, we weren't asking." A sweat formed on the man and he got out a key and gave it to them

Without saying anything, Atlas shot the glass windows and the outside while also shooting the man's toe

Kronos got in the elevator alongside Atlas whilst sirens rang in the background

As the elevator closed and started to ascend, sweet music played

Opening up the black duffel bag each of them brought out two medium sized rocket launchers

The elevator door opened

*Ding*
