So, A While Ago I Got Started On A Hades/Darksiders Crossover Fanfic. I Got Two Chapters Out And Then
So, a while ago I got started on a Hades/Darksiders crossover fanfic. I got two chapters out and then it went on hiatus essentially. Lately, I have been itching to get back to, so I got started on chapter three. Here's the beginning parts of chapter three of Hades Hath No Fury...
"Augh, damn it!" Said Zagreus.
So close, yet still so far. Having lost to the Rider of the Black Horse once again, Zagreus pulled himself out of the House’s pool of Styx water. Cracking his neck and catching up with Megaera and Thanatos, the prince would go for another run through the Underworld. He felt that this time he could defeat Fury, he had succeeded in beating her but she had also succeeded in killing him. Jumping out of the courtyard/balcony window and down to his father’s doorstep, the prince met his first Olympian for this run, Ares.
“Hello, my kin. It has been a while since I last saw you here. Making it to the surface well enough, I presume. ” Ares spoke, his last line almost like a question.
“Not lately. Fury is still in my way.” Zagreus said out loud, more to himself since he presumed Ares could not hear him. What he had not noticed was a small raising of Ares’ eyebrow, as if he was baffled by that battered state of Zagreus’ body.
Closing his eyes and taking a boon, Zagreus felt a surge of Ares’ power flow through him, a lust for battle rolling through quickly before settling. Dashing forward, he struck the shade, a sword of crimson energy quickly appearing before stabbing downward. Doing the same to the other nearby shade, the ever-dying god would be let through to the next room of Tartarus. Forward and up he went, grabbing another boon or two from Artemis, Athena, and Aphrodite.
“Don’t be afraid to give a big shout when you call.” Said Artemis, her voice tinged with… something.
“Sometimes a good defense is the best offense.” Said Athena sagely and emotionless.
“Tell her that Aphrodite sends her regards.” Ominously spoke the Goddess of Love, as if she had a bone to pick with someone.
Zagreus wondered what was up with all of them. They looked after him, may even be a bit more than just family to him, but there was something else. Something for him to wonder more about after his next duel with the Wielder of Scorn.
Stepping inside the “arena,” Zagreus saw Fury stretching before turning around as the door thudded shut. Both once again had a staring contest before charging at each other. Fury jumped with her whip at the ready, lashing out with it as Zagreus dashed, the boon he got from Athena activating and sending the hit right back at the Rider of the Black Horse. The Horsewoman grunted in pain before turning quickly and getting a good lash in at Zagreus as he stood. In pain yet not ready to give up just yet, he started going on the offensive. Back and forth they traded blows, the two ending up with many wounds from the attacks. Zagreus had even called upon Artemis for help, yet all it did was leave the Horsewoman more angry.
Panting and barely holding themselves up, both combatants ran forward, Zagreus dashing at the last second to activate Athena’s boon, only for Fury to dodge backwards as he did so. She aimed to counterattack, only for Zagreus to dash again and cast his boon from Aphrodite, leaving the Nephilim weak for but a second. Long enough for Zagreus to deal the final blow.
... And there we go! Hope you enjoyed this couple paragraphs of what I wrote! I got a couple more things to write for this and then chapter three will be up where I posted the fic. I'll probably self-reblog the post I made that links to the actual fic.

The Battleground of the Gods. What a way to waste their time when Creation is on the brink of destruction. At least it is a designated battleground that puts little to no collateral in the way. No humans to kill in a bid to destroy those you hate. The Minions are more like a type of godling than anything else, in a way.
Those were Strife's thoughts as he took in the sites and breathed the air of the battleground. He had ended up here some time ago, some time after the Destroyer had made his attack on the Maker's Tree. He suspected his last minute spell had brought him here to what is a essentially a prison for those that the Charred Council could not destroy without unbalancing the universe. So a pocket dimension where you could keep all these Gods and Monsters together for however long was probably the best option anybody could come up with.
Walking forward into the battleground, Strife readied himself and reached for his guns, only to find he had neither on him. Right. He lost them. Having an idea of where Mercy and Redemption ended up, the Rider of the White Horse pulled out his blades and checked for his caltrops, knowing that he may have to go into battle with less power than he would have liked.

Since it has been on my mind again, I want to talk about maybe another idea that could have been cool to see Riot Forge try out: a game set in ancient Shurima that focuses on the story of the Ascended versus the Void, or how the Darkin would become the Darkin. Or something that does both?
It could maybe something like the Civilization series of games, or maybe something like what I've seen of Marvel's Midnight Suns. Now that I think about, a smaller version of Midnight Suns would probably be a good idea for a game set around the Ascended versus the Void. I have heard that Midnight Suns is like XCOM, a game I have never played, so maybe whoever it was that Riot Forge could have hypothetically gotten for the game could pull off a 2D version of that gameplay.
Kinda wish I had more to say, but the ideas are not popping in my head all that easily. I do think it would be cool to get more of an idea on the Darkin before they were the Darkin, so who knows, maybe Riot themselves will give the idea a try one day.
If there was one thing unique about this end of the world, it would be the appearance of the many gods and monsters, the many angels and demons. Death figured that someone, somewhere freed them all from the Battleground of the Gods. Either that or there was just something different now when it came to the end of the world.
Wandering the jungles of Earth, Death had come upon an ancient temple, one that he had not seen in many, many years. The Temple of Wonder and Pain.
The door had been opened, which meant two things: someone got in, or something got out. Death was more than willing to investigate by himself when he happened upon someone else inside. Someone who looked human but had the aura of a demon. The Demi-Fiend. What could the Demon of Darkness want with the Temple of Wonder and Pain?
Standing back and watching the Demi-Fiend, the Pale Rider would keep an eye on him. If he had to step in, he would, but for now it did not hurt to watch.
The Demi-Fiend had come to this temple looking for someone. Someone who had power that could help in his war against the Great Will. Humanity needed to gain its power to fight the forces of Order and Chaos, whether it be through their own power or by taking it from the gods and monsters of the world would be up to each individual.
Individuals such as Caradog McCallister. The Champion of the Dead. Caradog acted as protector of Xbeltz'aloc, as warden of the Gods of Wonder. Opening the door to the temple, Demi-Fiend stepped inside, ready for the hell that would come.
Caradog had not had a big challenge in some time, the fights with the Champions of the Gods of Wonder had grown stale, so when he felt a breeze pass through the halls, he knew that someone had found the temple and that got him a bit excited. Just maybe the type of challenge he's been looking for.
NOTES: This was kinda fun to write. I like testing myself, I guess, with writing something short like this. I had the idea sometime after writing up my previous post about how it would be cool to see other crossovers into SMT. Hope you all enjoyed this!
