The End of Cronus the Titan


Long ago, In a time when the world was still ruled by Uranus, It was total chaos and destruction. Uranus was the worst ruler of the universe. His son Cronus hated him. He devised a plan to kill him. One day, when Uranus was asleep. He took out his sickle and sliced up his father into a million pieces and threw him in tartatus. He then took his throne as the ruler of the universe.
You would think he was a good ruler. You’re wrong. He was far worse than Uranus. He had a lot of children like the gods you know today like Zeus and Poseidon but he also had this one child who was weak but very wise. His name was Chiron, He was born a grown man. But he wasn’t all man. He was actually the first ever centaur. Half man, half horse. Cronus was ashamed of him so instead of eating him like what he did to the gods, He banished him into the far away lands.
 Chiron pleaded Cronus to give him his sickle to use as protection from the outside world. Cronus boringly agrees since he has no use of the sickle. Chiron then used the sicle against his father slashing his stomach. Out came one of Cronus children from his stomach but the wound quickly healed so the child was the only one who got out. Chiron quickly wrapped the baby in a piece of cloth and ran safely away from Cronus palace. He went into a cave and raised the child as one of his own and called her, Artemis.
Several years later, Artemis was fully grown and ready for battle. Chiron told her that he was actually his brother and that they were immortal. Artemis then told him that she had a dream about one of the children of Cronus named Zeus also escaped his father and was somewhere far away training and raised by a few nymphs. They set out a journey to find this so called Zeus. When they finally found him, they were amazed of his powers. Zeus was a strong and powerful man. He could order the sky to give him some thunderbolt which he can use to destroy mountains. They asked him to accompany them in their quest to free their brothers and sisters inside Cronus by making him sick so he could vomit them out. Zeus thought the plan was disgusting but he agreed.
Chiron called upon his brothers, the centaurs to rally Cronus’ fortress. In the end Chiron using his sickle, Artemis used her trusty bow and Zeus used his powerful thunderbolts and they ripped apart their father’s stomach and all of his children came out and they all became Olympians. Chiron, however wanted to live his immortal life training the children of the gods so one day they could vanquish evil if the gods needed them.
