Zeus’
Revenge By Hannah Walker
So,
the human population was thriving, and Prometheus was crowned hero, but Zeus was
extremely infuriated, he wanted revenge. Watching the humans blatantly disobey
him, all because of the lowly ‘Rebel’ god; Prometheus, he was furious. In-case
you didn’t know, when Zeus gets angry, heads will roll, literally. Zeus was bitterly determined to punish Prometheus. He decided
to send the muscular, Vulcan, the god of fire, to ‘take care of’ the little
pest, Prometheus. When, Vulcan approached Zeus, He quickly explained the plan;
“Chain him to the highest peak on mountain Ida” he clarified, slightly bored.
So off Vulcan went, to tie Prometheus to Mount Ida, really, it was an extremely
easy job for the burly fire god. He tied
the devil’s tongue knot on Prometheus to bind him mercilessly to the freezing
mountain, departed for Mount Olympus.
Prometheus
was in utter shock, he didn’t know the king of the gods could get so blindly
masked by blind hate, so actually tie someone to the top of a mountain. But the
worst was yet to come. For as soon as Prometheus muttered the cliché “It can’t
get any worse than this, can it?” but as you know-or should know- that is a
huge insult to the gods. So Zeus decided to take things up a notch. He sent eagles.
These
weren’t the pleasant eagles Americans decorate their patios with on the Fourth
of July, Oh-No, these were violent, vicious, and just plain villainous eagles.
And you know how normal eagles munch
on fish guts; well these eagles devoured human
guts. Every morning at exactly day break, they would swoop down and devour
Prometheus’ liver and other vital organs, and every at exactly dusk, it his
insides would grow back. But Prometheus was courageous as courageous fire gods
can go, and he bore it valiantly. Unfortunately that didn’t mean he got off the
mountain, for he had so much pride he got a little foolishly cocky. Every day
Zeus would remind Prometheus, that he would be freed if he agreed to his gory, two
conditions; Have a mortal venture up the mountains to kill the eagle and free
him, and have an immortal die for him. Prometheus refused both of these options,
which made Zeus even more livid. Prometheus was stranded there for some time
until, eventually, Chiron the Centaur-out of pity- sacrificed himself for
Prometheus, and Hercules ventured up the mountain, with his god-like strength,
and destroyed the organ eater eagles. This made Zeus furious beyond words,
being betrayed by his own son…So on that day, he swore, he would have his, true
revenge on Prometheus, and it would be mercilessly
brutal.
