Upon defeating Ares, Kratos had become the new God of War. But he had never resolved his past, the wife and daughter that Kratos had murdered in cold blood, on Ares' orders.

Kratos flashes back to the day that changed his life forever....

Kratos' wifee shouted " No Kratos, Don't do it!", when Kratos stabbed his 6-year-old daughter though the chin, into her skull. She was instantly killed. Kratos threw his daughter's lifeless body to the side, and her beautiful mother knew that she had been betrayed by her husband.

She shouted " May the Gods high on Olympus have mercy on you, Kratos!", and with that, Kratos sliced her nearly in half, tears streaming down her beautiful face as she died.

All of a sudden, Ares contacted Kratos, and said " Well done, Kratos. With your wife and child, nothing will hold you back. You will become even stronger. You will become death itself!"

And when Ares' face left the fire. He realized what he had done. But he also knew that to let them live in peace on the Elysian Fields, he would have to kill Ares. He would have to kill the God of War.

Eventually, He succeeded, and took Ares' throne. Still, he had not found peace.

Suddenly, one of his servants came to him, and said " All of the Gods have united against you! They are being led by Lord Zeus!". Kratos knew immediately what the issue was. He was once a mortal, and the other Olympians didn't like that fact that he was a God now. So Kratos grabbed the blades that Athena had given him upon defeating Ares, and went off to battle.....

Chapter 1: Battle Between Gods

Kratos walked outside his chambers, and Zeus was overseeing the attack on Kratos' throne on Olympus. Kratos remembers why Zeus wanted him dead.

Kratos wanted to find out who his father was. So he went searching for his mother. When he finally found her, Kratos demanded to know who his father was. All she said, before turning into a monster was " Zeus", and Kratos was forced to kill her, as Zeus commanded her to never reveal to anyone what happened between them.

Back at the battlefield......

Kratos grows wings, and charges at Zeus, whom was riding in his Chariot, throwing thunder bolts at Kratos. Kratos returns fire with his fireballs. One of Zeus' horses is killed, and Zeus starts to decend.

Eventually he crashes, and Kratos lands. Zeus mocks Kratos and says," I'll send you to see your mother in Hades!"

Kratos is angered, and tries to slice Zeus with his Blades of Athena. Zeus is hit, but unaffected. Kratos is left in awe.

Zeus mocks Kratos yet again.

" Kratos, your power is nothing. I was the one who gave you your power, and I took it away!"

Kratos feels himself shrinking. Suddenly Kratos' soldiers' heads start exploding, and soo they are all dead.

Zeus is three times bigger than Ares, and is much stronger. Kratos never had a chance, as he inherited only Ares' powers.

Zeus then taunts Kratos with these words " You stupid mortal, we were all, in some way, responsible for all of your suffering. You got out of hand, you killed too many people. Do you really think we'd let you be a God?! Athena decieved you into thinking you would be a God, then you would recieve punishment."

Kratos replied " Why did you kill Ares?"

Zeus said " We were afraid he would let you go to far. So we turned you both against each other, thinking he would destroy you. We sent him to Athens, telling him that he would get his revenge on Athena. So he went, and the rest is history.....However, we did not expect you to defeat Ares, and so we decieved you, and decided to punish you with shattered dreams. You think Hades would let your family go?! He has already destroyed their souls, so they can never return!"

Zeus then hit Kratos with one of his bolts, and Kratos was disintigrated.
